Bai Mudan nodded her head, "Yes, to become an official! As long as you have the will, I'll speak to my father and have him arrange it for you."
"Father-in-law... would he agree?" Dongfang Jian hesitantly said.
"He must agree." Bai Mudan smiled, "You're already his son-in-law, he's definitely going to take care of you. If you achieve success, it'll reflect well on him too."
"I see..."
"So, can you do it or not? Give me a straight answer."
"Alright! I'll listen to you! I've been drifting for so many years, I'm tired too. It's time to rest a bit."
"I'll go to my father tomorrow and have him arrange a good position for you."
The night passed just like that.
Early the next morning, Bai Mudan went to find Bai Daqing to discuss getting Dongfang Jian a position within the government.
"Is this your idea? Or Dongfang Jian's?" Bai Daqing asked.
