God of Protection, Si Yehan

"That Wang Ze, using the fact that his family is a relative of the head steward in the Si family, never took us seriously. He bullied whoever he wanted to. Even the teachers didn't dare to offend him. It's so satisfying to see him scared to death by you this time."

So that fool was called Wang Ze.

"The one beside him is Miao Xing, Wang Ze's lackey, and another called Jin Xiang. He fell sick so he's not in school today. The three of them are notorious bullies in school, no one dares to provoke them! You offended Wang Ze today, so you have to be careful in school in the future." Yu Xuan kindly reminded her.

Cheng Qianqian shrugged nonchalantly. "If they're not afraid of meeting the master, they can come and find me."

Yu Xuan widened his eyes in surprise. "Did you really help the monk…"

He didn't even dare to say it and swallowed subconsciously. He couldn't believe that this delicate-looking girl in front of him could have done such a thing before.

"What's wrong with that? Everyone will have such a day!" Cheng Qianqian did not mind.

"Anyway, be careful! Everyone's afraid of Wang Ze. Actually, rather than saying that they're afraid of Wang Ze, it's more like they're afraid of the Si family. Who would dare to offend them in this empire!"

"Is this Si family very powerful?"

"You don't know?" Yu Xuan was shocked. How could there be someone in the empire who didn't know about the Si family!

"This school belongs to the Si family!" Yu Xuan said as he pointed at the magnificent building outside.

"The ancestors of the Si family were among the pioneering forefathers of the empire when it was founded. The family was huge and had many descendants, and they hold a monopoly position in various industries. Rumor has it that out of every ten officials in the empire, seven were from the Si family, two were their friends, and one was backed by the Si family."

"Si Yehan, the head of the Si family in this generation, is a famous general in the army. Many of the empire's foreign wars were won because of his wise decisions. He, the God of War, is the protector of our people!"

Yu Xuan's eyes were filled with admiration when he talked about Si Yehan, the God of War.

Cheng Qianqian seemed to understand now. In this country, Si Yehan's existence was like that of an overlord, and no one could afford to go against him.

No wonder even someone like Wang Ze could go around having his way and even Feng Yi didn't dare to offend him.

As they were talking, the first lesson began.

"Everyone, we will be studying ancient poetry today. Please turn to page 48," Teacher Xue stood on the podium and said loudly.

Cheng Qianqian opened the book as instructed and felt dizzy looking at the densely worded pages filled with ancient poems. It looked like a group of tadpoles that kept swimming in front of her eyes and soon, she was nodding off.

"Wake up, wake up!"

Cheng Qianqian was pinched hard by someone and she suddenly stood up. "Who did this!"

When she opened her eyes, she was met with Teacher Xue's angry gaze, followed by the entire class bursting into laughter.

"Silence!" Teacher Xue slammed the podium, and the class fell silent.

"Are you the new student, Cheng Qianqian?" Teacher Xue narrowed her eyes.

"Um… it's me."

"It seems like you are so confident in your knowledge, that you can afford to sleep in my class and even snore! You are simply disrespecting your elders!"

Eh… Did she snore?

Cheng Qianqian scratched her head in embarrassment. It was all Lan's fault for waking her up so early in the morning, causing her lack of sleep.

"Where was I just now? Repeat my last sentence!"
