The Satan CEO's Woman: He Unexpectedly Fell in Love with Her

Their late arrival yesterday already caught the attention of most students as no one in the entire history of Imperial University dared to arrive later than the scheduled arrival time. They were so strict with rules in discipline and was very particular with time management. And the one who welcomed them was the School Director's Assistant but since Kim Eunji and company were new, they thought that she's an ordinary staff.

Also, the commotion that happened last night in the cafeteria added to the student's curiosity about her. Also her other worldly beauty was one of the main reasons why she stood out.

Some tried to ask about her everywhere but the only thing they got was her name and the Department she's enrolled with. Thankfully, she asked the School Director beforehand to make her curriculum confidential in case situations like this would happen in the future which eventually did.

"I see. Well, seems like I won't be able to keep a low profile." Kim Eunji said in helplessness after she listened to Guo Xiaolan's explanation.

"Is this the reason why you brought me here to eat with you guys?" Kim Eunji asked Guo Xiaolan.

Guo Xiaolan made a soft 'Yeah' as a response to her question.

"I'm just afraid that after what happened last night, they would pester you. I mean the both of you since you didn't belong in a group yet. I'm sorry." Guo Xiaolan carefully explained.

Kim Eunji chuckled lightly and lightly pinched her cheeks as she said, "Why are you apologizing? I'm glad that you're worried about my well-being in school. And besides, I should be the one who should apologize in the first place since I would be dragging you to my mess if I'll stay in your group. So it's best that I should stay away from you guys to not implicate you. So cheer up Leader Guo?"

Kim Eunji's response made Guo Xiaolan's face to turn red as she suddenly felt shy.

"Guys, aren't you afraid of them? I mean, if they're going to bully me, they might bully you, too." Kim Eunji stated the consequences.

She was sure that after what happened last night, Jin Li Rong would find ways to make things difficult for her. She could see the deep hatred for her in her eyes last night when she looked at her. Their conflict started because of the Jin Family. Therefore, no outsiders should be implicated.

However, Guo Xiaolan's response made Kim Eunji's heart to warm up to them even more.

"No, we are not afraid. Everyone here felt that their bullying should stop. We might be powerless when it comes to money and family background but we're sure that the school would listen to us. If not, we would ask for someone who could. After all, we're one of the few reasons why this school excels academically." Guo Xiaolan proudly and confidently said.

"You guys...*Sigh* I'm sorry everyone." Kim Eunji sincerely apologized in advance.

"No! Don't apologize. We really wanted to get to know you, too. That's why we asked Leader Guo to bring you in our table so we could get to know you, too." Yun Mei explained in behalf of the group who vigorously nodded their heads as support.

"Then, I'll be in your care from now on." Kim Eunji finally said.

The next second, they were all praising Kim Eunji which made the latter to be extremely shy.

"EJ, why are you so beautiful? You still looked good even with glasses. Not many could pull off that nerdy look. You're even bare faced right now." Yun Mei asked her first.

"Are you a model overseas? You should be right?" Wen Zhen asked her. But she didn't want Kim Eunji to misinterpret her question so she added.

"I mean don't get offended but you looked like a foreigner to us. Even your name is not Chinese." She suddenly felt nervous when Kim Eunji looked at her.

"Woah! Easy girls! One by one or else she'll be overwhelmed for sure." Guo Xiaolan interrupted them.

"Woah! You have such beautiful pair of eyes." Fu Rong blurted out. She was sitting directly opposite to Kim Eunji and got the chance to look at her eyes directly.

"Now that you pointed out, I just realized it just now. They're of different colors. They're beautiful." Guo Xiaolan said which made everyone become curious and fascinated by it.

"Thank you." Kim Eunji simply thanked them.

"So unique! I haven't encountered someone who had that condition. Was it inborn?" Guo Xiaolan asked her as she was curios.

"To answer the first question...I guess it's all thanks to my parents for providing such beautiful genes." She paused as she looked at Wen Zhen this time as she was thinking if she should answer her question or not. In the end, she decided to answer her since there's no harm anyways.

"You're right. Both of my parents are biracial. I am quarter Chinese from my mother's maternal family and a quarter Korean from my father's maternal side where I obviously got my family name. No, I'm not a model when I was staying abroad. I worked there as a photographer instead. Why? Simply because I don't like to be in front of the camera."

She then turned her attention to Guo Xiaolan.

"About my eyes... yes. They're inborn." She said though it was not. She chose to lie to not spark any more questions.

"I hope that all of my answers satisfies your curiousness about me ladies." She immediately sealed it as she didn't want to entertain another set question from them as of the moment.

There's a limit as to how much she was willing to share to them.

"Yeah. It indeed helped us to know you. Don't worry, we have the time to know you more. So we won't force you to share everything to us. We'll get to know you in our own way." Yun Mei said in understanding.

"Right."

"So I guess we should go and grab our food now? Or else I won't be able to eat my favorite food." Fu Rong interrupted as she pointed out that students who were already lining up towards the counter.

"Alright. Let's go!" Guo Xiaolan stood up and lead the group towards the counter.

Kim Eunji still had to get her food from the special lane for people with food allergies.

She had a bowl of congee topped with meat and, pickled string beans and fermented tofu. She was also given a fruit shake instead of fruit juice.

She peacefully went back to their table and was hoping to have a good breakfast.

As she sat down, Kim Eunji suddenly thought of Nathan. Did he arrive already? Had he eaten already? Did he sleep? Those are the thoughts that were running in her head.

Iris nudged her side so she could snap back from her thoughts.

"Are you okay, EJ?" Guo Xiaolan asked her.

"Yes." Kim Eunji immediately answered her question.

However, she felt sad when she realized she had not worn any accessories. She had removed them last night when she took a bath. Also, this morning, she was not able to get her jewelry pouch from her bag.

She hoped Nathan didn't realize that she was not wearing any last night during their call.

"Okay. You looked like you're in a daze right now." Guo Xiaolan added.

"I'm sorry. I'm just... never mind."

"Homesick?" Fu Rong asked her.

'Am I?' She asked herself. Home. She missed her home. Not their house but the person who made her feel home.

As she realized that, maybe she's indeed homesick. But it was too early to say that.

"Nah. I don't think so. I used to travel a lot because of my work." What she meant was that it's impossible for her to be homesick since she used to travel a lot in the past.

But the situation was far different now. Before, she had considered she lost her home when she left the organization. But now, she already found her home.

Her reasoning was very simple. Everyone would thought that she's missing the place were she'd been living and sharing with her loved ones like her family. No one would thought her home was now represented by the sole person who made her heart skip a beat the moment she thought about him.

"Girls let's eat first before our food get's cold." Marie interrupted them.

"Right. Let's eat."

Kim Eunji had her meal in peace. Unfortunately, the peaceful breakfast might not last that long when Ling Bao came in with his tray of food in his hand and decided to sit on the vacant table directly opposite to theirs.

He even deliberately sat on the side where he could watch Kim Eunji the moment he looked up.

Kim Eunji could only inwardly smirk because of that.

Soon, his basketball mates also came in his table with a tray of food on their hands.

Everyone was having a great discussion on their seats because of this sudden development.

They thought that what happened last night would never happen again.

Well, it looked like the campus King was so serious in pursuing the school's most popular new student.

"What's going on with the both of you?" Wen Zhen curiously asked as she ate her chicken congee.

"There's nothing going on between us." She straightforwardly answered.

"Are you sure?" Marie asked her. There were some doubts in her words. To say it correctly, she had been doubting Kim Eunji the moment she saw her that day. She was doubting Kim Eunji's intention towards Nathan since she didn't know about her as a person entirely. She was also absent in the mansion and didn't get the chance to interact with her more.

"Why should I not be sure, Marie? Look at him. Now, look at me. Him and I would never be compatible. When it comes to romantic perspective, that would never happen between us. Age wise, I'm older than him. I'm like his sister. Also, I already have someone while he's engaged." Kim Eunji reasoned with her.

'And besides, my hubby is far more outstanding than him. You should have known better.' She continued in her thoughts.

"You have a boyfriend?" Yun Mei's eyes lightened up. She was up for something gossip worthy. Well, she's the President of the IU's official school newspaper.

"Don't mind her. She's acting weird because it's her second nature. But don't worry, she knew her boundaries."

Kim Eunji sighed when she realized she had revealed it to them. Well it's inevitable. She might not have been wearing the rings now so they didn't ask her about it but when they saw her wearing them, they would surely ask.

"Yes. I'm currently with someone." She admitted and hoping that this little information would satisfy them.

"Is he handsome, too? An outstanding person? He should be, right? I mean you're very beautiful. I bet, you have a very high standards when it comes to men."

"Handsome? Well, average. I liked it when I don't have any competition at all." Kim Eunji said.

Marie and Iris's lips twitched when they heard how she described Nathan's physical features.

"Outstanding? Well, you could ask Marie if he's outstanding or not." Kim Eunji passed down the spotlight to Marie.

"Eh? Why me? He's your man. Not mine." 'And besides, I'm not even suitable to describe his achievements as a whole.' She continued in her thoughts.

"Wait. You guys know each other beforehand?" Fu Rong asked either of them.

"Sort of." Marie admitted while Kim Eunji decided to remain silent. She was sipping her fruit shake this time.

"Well, all I could say is...her man is a perfect match for her. Would that be enough?" Marie answered in the safest way.

"What's his job? Is he a model that you met abroad? Or is he a businessman?" Yun Mei asked her this time.

Kim Eunji paused as she was thinking how she should describe Nathan's job. She recalled when Nathan told her that she was the photographer during the photoshoot which was his way of announcing his identity to the world. He was her model back then.

"Well, I did took photos of him during my job one time. But that won't make him a professional model. Do you get what I mean? As for his job, all I could say is that he had a stable source of income that could support us until retirement. Then, isn't he outstanding enough?"
