"What's going on? Why is Ninth Prince being so nice to that ugly guy? Is he sleepwalking? Is he still dreaming?"
"His Highness the Ninth Prince doesn't usually interact with girls, so why is he so nice to that transfer student?"
"Yeah, yeah, the key point is that the transfer student is so ugly! When she stands next to the Ninth Prince, it's like a handsome man and a beast!"
"Aaaaaah, I'm so jealous! Ninth Prince is mine!"
The students were all whispering and discussing it among themselves.
The girls, in particular, looked at Shi Nian with eyes full of jealousy.
Why does someone as ugly as her deserve special treatment from the Ninth Prince?
They've known His Highness for so long, and he's never smiled at them!
Not only were the students stunned, but the homeroom teacher, Ms. Chen, was also dumbfounded, staring in disbelief at the boy's attitude towards Shi Nian.
In her imagination, Shi Nian was about to sit down next to him when he flew into a rage, chased her away, and then went to the school board to have her expelled.
But instead of being angry, he treated her so well?
What's going on?
"Mu Jiutu, were you threatened by her?" Teacher Chen couldn't help but ask.
Upon hearing this name, Shi Nian's lips twitched involuntarily.
This name is so cringeworthy!
The way the female classmates addressed him, including his name, was full of childish and immature humor.
Mu Jiutu glanced coldly at Teacher Chen and sneered, "You seem to have a lot of issues with my Niannian?"
Teacher Chen's face stiffened: "..." My...my home?
What's going on?
The other students stared at him in disbelief, their faces filled with astonishment.
Does that ugly girl know the Ninth Prince? Or are they family?
Mu Jiutu stood up, his tall and slender figure standing behind Shi Nian's petite body, adopting a protective stance as he said, "Listen up, all of you, from now on, I'll protect this girl. Anyone who dares to bully her is going against me!"
He instantly released a powerful aura, as if a war god had possessed him, giving a stern warning to everyone present, completely different from his previous lazy demeanor!
Everyone: "..."
Everyone was so shocked that their jaws nearly dropped to the ground.
The Ninth Prince actually publicly defended that ugly monster! What merit does that ugly monster possess?!
The homeroom teacher was so angry that her face turned pale and then red.
She felt that Mu Jiutu's words were specifically meant for her!
Mu Jiutu ignored Teacher Chen and turned to look at Shi Nian. His expression instantly became as docile and obedient as a puppy. "Niannian, sit down quickly, don't get tired of standing."
Shi Nian: "..."
She gave him a deep look before sitting down.
Mu Jiutu also sat down.
The homeroom teacher gritted his teeth in anger, but dared not say anything more. He could only tell the students to stop staring at the back of the classroom and start the lesson with a dark expression.
Shi Nian took out her textbook and prepared to listen attentively to the lecture.
but……
Mu Jiutu, standing beside her, kept her head tilted to the side, supporting her chin with one hand and looking at her.
Her expression was gentle, her eyes filled with a smile, as if she were looking at her beloved.
Shi Nian finally couldn't help but turn to look at him.
Instantly, the smile in his eyes brightened even more. "Niannian, you're so cute~"
Shi Nian's lips twitched, and she lowered her voice to ask, "Are you one of the ten my grandfather adopted?"
At first, she didn't connect it to that idea.
But after Mu Jiutu inexplicably protected her and looked at her with adoration, she suddenly remembered the ten men her grandfather had adopted.
Rong Qing once said that her grandfather was a sucker for good looks. He couldn't guarantee the other aspects of the ten men he raised for her, but their looks were definitely guaranteed.
Mu Jiutu's looks are undeniable; someone whose appearance could still amaze Ye Chen after seeing her must be exceptional.
So, she suddenly realized that he might be one of the ten.
Otherwise, his behavior cannot be explained.
