Chapter 46 If I work here, will I turn into a little dragon?
Yu Xiao remained silent, lost in thought.
He strongly suspected that the golden dragon was acting again, but Yu Xiao had no evidence.
I thought about it.
"Have someone lock the inside of the villa right now!"
"This egg is about to escape again! Send more people to keep a close watch!"
Taking a deep breath, Yu Xiao spoke solemnly.
Xia Minghan: ?
What did you say? The egg is preparing to escape?
Wait, what is this egg anyway?! It escaped once and it's trying to escape again?
Xia Minghan's expression changed repeatedly.
He originally wanted to ask Yu Xiao if something was wrong, but Yu Xiao said this...
Thinking back to what happened the day before yesterday.
"Yes, Mr. Yu Xiao! I'll give the order right away!"
Xia Minghan spoke earnestly.
In the end, Xia Minghan hesitated for a moment.
I thought about it.
"Mr. Yu Xiao, are you aware of what happened yesterday?"
"The sky over the entire Donghai City turned completely dark, and the entire city seemed to have suddenly entered a state of extreme cold, with the outdoor temperature plummeting."
"Most importantly, Donghai City didn't allow companies to operate in the afternoon, and then people showed up there in the evening, as if they wanted to..."
Xia Minghan spoke cautiously.
He was very curious about what had happened, as it was crucial to the company's next steps.
But when he asked, they all said they had no comment.
He felt that Yu Xiao should know, since the first dragon egg Yu Xiao had was purchased by the government.
Yu Xiao did know.
But Yu Xiao didn't know how to say it.
You mean, a real dragon hatched and caused a cataclysmic event, but then the dragon withdrew its power, leaving only thunder, lightning, and darkness?
This is the 21st century!
I hesitated for a moment.
"Um... I don't know either, I was playing video games at home last night..."
Yu Xiao made up an excuse to explain.
In any case, Xia Minghan will be able to guess what it is in two days.
But it's strange, since the Shadow Dragon is the ruler of the abyss, its emergence from its shell is accompanied by the descent of the abyss.
What about the Golden Dragon? And given the Golden Dragon's abilities...
"Could a golden city suddenly appear in the sky above Donghai City?"
"Or have all the buildings in Donghai City turned to gold?"
Yu Xiao was a little suspicious.
...
Actually, the renovation company was also quite surprised.
After all, the client had just paid the deposit last night and was ready to start construction, but then they were told by their superiors that construction was not allowed and all operations had to be suspended.
The renovation company was very unhappy with this order; wasn't this going to delay their ability to make money?
There's nothing we can do; we can't fight city hall. We have to accept it.
But as they waited and waited, a document came down that evening, ordering traffic control in Donghai City and the evacuation of residents.
However, the restrictions did not last long, and were lifted around 10 p.m.
Yu Xiao then readily offered to pay more, so the renovation company arranged for several construction teams to come over overnight.
Yu Xiao was quite satisfied with the efficiency this time.
Although it's not completely finished, it's almost done, and the general outline is there.
"From now on, this will be the headquarters of the True Dragon Breeding and Consulting Company!"
Looking at the signboard he had ordered to be hung up, Yu Xiao exuded an air of pride.
"Now that we're employees, we don't even know who will be the first to apply..."
Turning around and looking out the gate, Yu Xiao stroked his chin.
I was just about to take my phone out of my pocket.
"Um... excuse me, are you looking to hire someone here?"
A weak voice came from outside the door.
Then, a woman in a blue dress walked slowly towards Yu Xiao.
"This is... Ling Man's daughter, here for a job interview?"
Looking at Hong Zhixuan in his line of sight, Yu Xiao raised his eyebrows.
A rich heiress like you applying for a job? That's outrageous! Aren't you just competing with animals for their livelihood?
I thought to myself, "What do you mean?"
"Yes, Zhenlong Consulting is preparing to recruit employees."
Yu Xiao spoke with a serious expression.
...
More than half an hour later.
Inside a well-decorated room.
"Graduated from MIT with an MBA, interned at an investment bank on Wall Street, and won second place in a national piano competition..."
Yu Xiao glanced at the documents in his hand, then looked at Hong Zhixuan sitting opposite him, a little curious.
Is this the true value of a rich heiress?
But if you don't go to companies like Alibaba or Tencent, and instead come to me, doesn't that seem a bit odd?
He coughed lightly.
"I've looked at your resume, and I think someone like you..."
Yu Xiao's expression turned serious.
He was only halfway through his sentence.
"Do you really sell real dragons here?"
Hong Zhixuan cautiously raised her head, looked at Yu Xiao, and spoke weakly.
"Isn't that necessary? Otherwise, why would it be called..."
"If I work at this company, will I turn into a little dragon... a little dragon girl?"
"?"
"Am I destined to come into contact with a real dragon?"
"Well, it's not like there's no chance, if you can..."
"Do dragons eat people? Is it like in those fantasy novels, where dragons want to possess anything that's shiny or sparkly?"
"?"
Looking at Hong Zhixuan's curious expression, Yu Xiao was a little confused.
You applied for a job without asking about salary or job requirements, and now you're asking me this?
Seeing that Yu Xiao didn't answer him and just stared at him...
"One last question: if I accidentally saw your true face, you wouldn't mind, would you...?"
Hong Zhixuan mustered her courage and stammered as she spoke.
He paused after saying that.
"Of course, I can work without pay, I can work all year round without a break, as long as you don't mind..."
Hong Zhixuan tugged at the hem of her skirt and answered seriously.
At first, Hong Zhixuan also thought Yu Xiao was talking nonsense. It's the 21st century, we need science!
But after seeing black smoke billowing from Yu Xiao's body, Hong Zhixuan chickened out. "I don't know if it's scientific or not, but I really saw a ghost..."
After witnessing Yu Xiao burst into flames and then walk out of the residential area, Hong Zhixuan panicked.
So when Xia Wei brought up the matter of going to Yu Xiao's company to find out what was going on, Hong Zhixuan refused to do it no matter what.
But Hong Zhixuan broke down when she saw Yu Xiao appear in her line of sight.
He really could sense that someone was cursing him! Otherwise, how could he coincidentally appear in front of me every time?
Most importantly, it was last night.
The sudden changes in the natural world and the strict controls imposed on Donghai City made Hong Zhixuan sense something unusual.
Hong Zhixuan didn't know exactly why it appeared, but there was a person in Donghai City whose existence was beyond scientific explanation.
Then come over and explain things clearly to Yu Xiao.
"I can be your free labor, and my family is not exactly poor. Just name your price."
"As long as you can promise not to kill me or silence me, my help to you will be beyond your wildest imagination..."
Seeing that Yu Xiao had not spoken for a long time, Hong Zhixuan hurriedly added.
I'll work illegally, that's fine! As long as you don't kill me!
Yu Xiao still didn't speak.
The main problem is that Yu Xiao is a bit conflicted about what his true colors are.
"I can't transform, and I don't have any other disguises..."
Yu Xiao couldn't understand it no matter how hard he tried.
Yu Xiao was still pondering.
Sensing that its path to cause trouble for the spirit dragon was blocked again, the golden dragon was quite discouraged.
After giving the fairy dragon another disdainful look, the golden dragon angrily bit off a fragment from the dragon egg.
[And the Golden Dragon tells you that he will behave himself from now on and will never do anything willful again.]
[Benefited by the Golden Dragon, the host's all attributes increase by 1]
[Incubation Countdown: 34 hours and 11 minutes]
Sensing that the Golden Dragon was looking down on him again, the Fairy Dragon was very disdainful.
[While mocking the Golden Dragon for disgracing all dragons, the Fairy Dragon declared that it would go to the Golden Dragon's dream again tonight to beat him up.]
The golden dragon shrank back in fear of the fairy dragon.
[Then the golden dragon took another bite from a fragment inside the dragon egg, indicating that it was not afraid of the fat dragonfly, but was only giving the ruler face.]
[Incubation Countdown: 32 hours and 52 minutes]
