Seeing that Qin Zhao did not interrupt him, Ning An continued, “War requires capital for it to happen. Soldiers and weapons all need sufficient funds. In the process of war, a large amount of money is needed. And at the end of the war, all kinds of treaties will be signed from many sides that incurred during the war. Generally, the defeated country needs to provide compensation to the victorious country. Such compensation will generally be contracted through an intermediary, and most of the intermediaries have invested capital in the war at the beginning. So why not think of it like the intermediaries pushed the war in the first place in order to earn large commissions for war preparations?”
“Very Interesting thought, sit down.” Qin Zhao thought for a while, “What’s your name?”
“Reporting to the instructor, my name is Ning An.” Ning An quickly stood up again in surprise.
“Sit down, sit down.” Qin Zhao swiped over on his terminal and waved to Ning An to motion him to sit down. “Any other answers? This student.”
After sitting down, Ning An let out a breath of relief and turned around to see He Xin’s eyes of admiration staring at him. “Ning An, how are you so powerful?”
“I made it all up.” Indeed, he really made the answer right on the spot. Ning An patted He Xin. “You don’t see my answer getting shown on the screen, you got the right point.”
Right at this moment, Chen Siyu suddenly returned a message. Ning An opened the text with a frown and looked at Qin Zhao on the stage. Ning An was not guarding He Xin against peeking into his terminal, and He Xin tilted his head as he read the message.
: “Be careful of Qin Zhao!! I’ll tell you more when I get back to our dorm room.”
“Ah, beware of instructor Qin…”josei
Ning An placed his index finger to his mouth to signal He Xin not to say anything more. “After we go back to our bedroom.”

After class, the two went to the cafeteria and bought nutritional supplements. Ning An pinched his nose and held his breath. He held up his neck and drank a bottle of nutritional supplements, his facial expression was comparable to being tortured.
He Xin placed the drink on his lips and chugged it down. He was pouting and had a funny expression as he smacked his lips together. Ning An was incredible, he already finished drinking to the last drop by the time they arrived to their room.
When they opened the door to their room, Chen Siyu anxiously greeted them. He looked around and turned to them. “What happened, why did you only return now?”
“We went to the cafeteria.” He Xin shook the empty bottle in his hand before throwing it at the trashcan outside. “What happened to make you so anxious like this?”
“Isn’t it because Ning An asked me how about Qin Zhao? I didn’t remember it at the beginning, but how did he become your classroom teacher?” Chen Siyu started talking as he circled the room.
“Stop, you’re making me dizzy.” Ning An grabbed him. “What’s going on?”
“Qin Zhao was originally a member of the military branch’s political branch and was later removed from the military because of a scandal.” Chen Siyu took a deep breath and said, “The scandal was about sexual harassment by the senior military officials towards the students.”
“I seem to have heard of this.” Ning An remembered that Ning Meng seemed to mention it to him herself, but he was busy playing a game at the time and didn’t pay attention to listening to her story, “So, Qin Zhao was among the seniors.”
“He should be. Although the list is not public, the relevant personnel have either been removed or reassigned. Although it cannot be ruled out in the political struggle to eliminate dissidents, be careful anyway. I heard from our instructor that Qin Zhao’s reputation in school is not very good.” Chen Siyu patted the stupefied He Xin, “That’s all I’ve got to say, you have to keep this in mind. I’ll come back to you guys after class. Since the two of you went to eat first, I’m starving to death. I’m going to eat now.”
“Professor Qin is not that kind of person… ” After coming to the military academy, He Xin felt like his three views had fallen. He was shocked, he never thought about these things before
“Don’t judge a book by its cover; these are just rumors, it can’t be fully trusted. Let’s just study hard.” Ning An looked at the time and decided to take a break before going to the training ground to find Derek, “Right, I’m going to the training ground tonight, do you want to come with me? ”
“Sure. “He Xin thought that Ning An was unhappy because he was interrupted from the morning competition alley and he wanted to go again, so he nodded in agreement.
————–
“Ning An, why is he here too?” Because he was glared at in the morning, Derek had been labeled “dangerous”, “fierce”, and “stay away from him” in He Xin’s heart.
He Xin initially watched Derek by hiding behind Ning An with some hospitality, but then suddenly remembered that he was making Ning An face more danger against the man and quietly stood out before Ning An. He seemed to want to block Ning An between Derek; this kind of behavior was like a hen protecting her baby chick and Derek couldn’t help but laugh.
“Pfft… I’m sorry.” Derek reached out to both of them. “Good evening, Ning An, He Xin.”
“Why does he know my name?” He Xin hurriedly lowered his voice for a whisper and asked Ning An.
“Have you forgotten that you’ve added him as a terminal friend? Take it easy.” Ning An took Derek’s outstretched hand. “Good evening, Mr. Liszt.”
He Xin reluctantly followed after Ning An and Derek shook hands. “Good evening.”
“Time is precious, let’s get started first.” All three stood outside the fighting arena, and He Xin immediately understood what was going on.
“Excuse me, please wait a minute, let’s have a discussion first.” He Xin pulled Ning An aside. “Answer my question first. What is going on?”
“I think he’s attentive in close combat. I’m a little worried about my final exam results and asked him if he could be my sparring partner. And he agreed.” Although Ning An couldn’t understand what happened in the morning, after thinking about the principle of making the best use of available resources, he took the initiative to contact Derek first, and the other party agreed very cheerfully.
“Then. I’m going first.” Since it was Ning An’s own decision, He Xin couldn’t say anything. After thinking about it, he decided to go up first. He Xin gathered his courage and looked at Derek. “I’m sorry for the long wait, I’ll come first ”
“Please. ”
Unsurprisingly, He Xin didn’t even survive three moves in from Derek’s hands and was thrown on the cushions by the man over his shoulder.
“It’s okay.” Looking at He Xin’s stunned and stumped expression, Derek had a sense of guilt for acting like a bully towards the other. He stretched out his hand to pull He Xin up to his feet.
“It’s okay.” He Xin shook his head and quickly got up to his feet. The feeling of oppression that had made him breathless was gone, but getting knocked down so quickly still hurt him a little. He whispered quietly, “I’m such a weakling… ”
Derek broke into laughter, and he hurriedly explained after He Xin gave him a doleful look. “I wasn’t laughing at you, really. I have studied close combat systematically before, but this is your first time so you can be easily be thrown off by people. And the suppression of my pheromone is also another reason. ”
“Is that so? Thank you.” He Xin was comforted, especially when Derek explained the inexplicable feeling of oppression to him just now. Otherwise, He Xin thought he was too timid. Now he seemed to be in a better mood and promptly flashed a smile, “I will study hard for this matter, next time I won’t let you win so easily ”
Derek’s eyes were shaken from that smile. “Okay, you’re welcome to find me at any time. ”
Then he turned to Ning An who was watching the game by the side. “Ning An, are you coming? ”
“Here. ”
Ning An stood on the opposite of Derek as he stepped on the training ground. Across him, Derek was silently measuring him with his eyes. Ning An had a thin body, his arms were lanky and his legs were skinny. At first glance, he didn’t even seem to have any flesh on his body.
The feeling of oppression came again and He Xin sat away subconsciously from the two. Looking at the scene, it seemed as if Ning An had felt nothing. He Xin was surprised; was Ning An stronger than he thought? It is true that one can’t judge a book by its cover, he must tell Chen Siyu about this discovery when they go back.
The boy was rather interesting. Derek watched Ning An intently as they exchanged glances, with dark furrowed eyebrows and a pale face. It was hidden very deeply, yet it was a familiar expression he had only ever seen on Fu Ke’s.
