Xu Ci had minor surgery and was recovering at home. His only discomfort was that every morning around seven or eight, he would “hear things,” a tap-tap-tap at the window.
The window was clearly shut tight.
Then one day, he pulled back the curtains and saw a palm-sized little dragon clinging to the glass, trying its hardest to tap on the window with its claws.
The little dragon flopped into his palm and handed him a note:
[Raise a dragon hatchling, get a husband].
Xu Ci, a university lecturer with no interest in romance who only wanted to look after his students, suddenly found himself with a dragon hatchling who loved browsing Zhihu, could draw up risk-assessment charts, and nagged him about dating every day.
The hatchling said:
“Teacher, don’t worry about raising me. My dad is super rich, super gentle, and super good at taking care of people. He’s just… temporarily trapped.”
The hatchling also said:
“When you’ve raised me and rescued Dad, I’ll give him to you as your husband!”
What Xu Ci never expected was that the “Dragon Dad” was a young Dragon King, a gentle, straightforward man who ruled an entire invisible “river.”
And that river had an inexplicable connection to the undercurrent deep in Xu Ci’s mind, the one that had caused him pain for so many years.
On one side was the little dragon hatchling who made him “relationship risk-assessment charts.” On the other was the Dragon King, who would look at him and softly ask, “Are you afraid?”
As he raised the hatchling, Xu Ci suddenly realized:
It seemed he hadn’t just been given a dragon hatchling,
he’d been given an entire family, with interest.
"Raise a Dragon Hatchling, Get a Husband"
