Looking at Naga's expression, Lu Mingfei absurdly felt that it might actually be true.
Wait, you really went out to get a job?
You're that down-to-earth?
Lao Tang had gone out to work for money because he had no idea he was a Dragon King and foolishly believed he was human. But how had she, a dragon with such clear self-awareness, also ended up getting a job?
Was this what the Principal had meant when he said they had to beware of Dragon Kind learning the rules of human society and integrating into it?
But—there didn't seem to be any harm in ordinary work, did there? Were they worried that Dragon Kind would steal jobs and affect college graduates' employment rates, causing social instability? Or were Dragon Raja naturally especially competitive, worsening the rat race in the workplace?
Naga's friendly attitude suddenly made Lu Mingfei lose his nervousness, and his thoughts began to wander.
He suddenly realized that Naga's words had revealed another piece of information: she could not simply freeload off someone else with a clear conscience.
That meant someone really was supporting her!
Among the people Lu Mingfei knew, there happened to be one particularly suspicious candidate—Senior Brother He Xiaomeng!
He knew Naga and did not reject Dragon Kind. He was outrageously bold, daring enough to steal Little Red from The Academy's archives and raise it as a pet. In that case, raising a Naga did not seem all that surprising—especially when this Naga was so beautiful.
"The person you're talking about... it isn't He Xiaomeng, is it?" Lu Mingfei asked.
Naga nodded naturally. "It's him—he gave me a place to live and taught me how to use the internet."
"This is... being kept?" Lu Mingfei's expression turned strange. "Could Senior Brother He be a dragon too?"
