Zhang Huilan frowned. “You’re being silly! What kind of family do you think the Si family is? They’re the most powerful family in the empire. Their leader, Si Yehan, is the God of War, the general who never lost a single battle in the empire. No one is his match on the battlefield and he hates injustice in the business world. There are so many cases of people who offended him gone bankrupt! You actually want him to marry Cheng Qianqian? Do you want us all to die?”

Even Feng Yi didn’t like Cheng Qianqian, let alone the God of War!

“Of course I know that the God of War wouldn’t like Cheng Qianqian, but what can we do about it? The Si family said that they are looking for women who are pure and innocent. Have you forgotten what Cheng Jinzhi had just done? If we send her there, we’ll die even sooner!”

Although Cheng Qianqian was not good-looking, at least her body was clean.

Zhang Huilan opened her mouth but did not say anything in the end.

Although there is technology to repair the hymen nowadays, that’s the Si family that they are talking about! Zhang Huilan felt a chill run down her spine to even think about deceiving the Si family on this matter.

“I’ll contact the plastic surgery agency in the next two days to see if they can find a way to remove the birthmark on Cheng Qianqian’s neck. As for the rest, it can be fixed in other ways.”

That was why Cheng Ruohuai was willing to spend a large sum of money to send Cheng Qianqian to the Firth Royal College, in hopes that she would be thoroughly changed, and be able to successfully bear a child for the Si family.

“Will… will this work?” Zhang Huilan was still very worried.

With Cheng Qianqian’s brains, could she keep up with the school’s progress and become a qualified socialite?

“It has to work even if it doesn’t!”

Cheng Ruohuai said with a straight face, “Besides, the God of War’s health could deteriorate at any time. If things don’t work out, we can only just send her over. Even if she can’t study, she can at least bear children, right? It’s considered her good fortune as long as she can give birth to a son or a daughter for him!”

Cheng Qianqian knew nothing about the couple’s plans and had a good night’s sleep.

The next day, it was Lan who had to wake her three or four times before she finally got up.

“Today is your first day at school, you can’t be late or those other ladies will mock you!” Lan pulled Cheng Qianqian up and brought out a basin of water from the bathroom to clean her face.

“So be it! It’s not like I haven’t been mocked before!”

“Cheng Qianqian, have some pride! You have to study hard and let everyone know that we children from the mountains can be promising talents too!”

Cheng Qianqian had no choice but to smile as she looked at Lan’s shining eyes and aggressive manner. “I know, I will definitely get first place in school and impress everyone!”

“Right, all the best!”

After washing up, Cheng Qianqian changed into a normal shirt and jeans along with a pair of black loafers and went downstairs.

Cheng Jinzhi was already having breakfast while Zhang Huilan sat beside her. Cheng Ruohuai had already left the house.

“Your father said that Uncle Cheng will drive you to school together with Jinzhi in future,” Zhang Huilan said to Cheng Qianqian in a rare calm tone.

“Can I bring one of the servants with me? I’m afraid I’ll get lost in school. It would be bad if I embarrass the family.”

Zhang Huilan thought for a moment and nodded. “Then…”

“I’ll go with her!” Cheng Qianqian pointed in a random direction, which happened to be Lan.

Zhang Huilan wasn’t familiar with Lan, but she didn’t say anything. “Suit yourself.”

After breakfast, Cheng Qianqian got into the car with Lan. The car left the Cheng residence for the Firth Royal College.
