Chapter 137 - 137: Supposed To Be A Student' Event
Chapter 137 - 137: Supposed To Be A Student' Event
The party would officially start at six in the afternoon.
However the students were already gathered on the venue two hours earlier than expected as they didn't want to miss such important occasion. They somehow felt like this party was special.
They were sporting their best outfits as they interacted with their friends. The ladies were wearing ball and evening gowns while the gentlemen were wearing their tuxedos and pants.
Everyone was having a good time. Except for a certain group of individual.
"Jin Li Rong, are you sure this plan would work?" Ling Bao anxiously asked Jin Li Rong who had just returned from her punishment.
"I'm sure! She made our life miserable, therefore she had no rights to be happy. I'm sure after tonight, Master Bai would hate her to death." Jin Li Rong said full of hatred towards Kim Eunji.
On the days that she was missing, she had to marry the man across her as her punishment. Had it been in the past, she would be very happy but the time was different now.
She no longer fantasized the half-brother but the man himself.
Therefore, she would do everything in her power to punish Kim Eunji and would snatch Nathan from her. She's the recognized Young Miss of the Jin Manor after all.
On the other hand, Ling Bao had become obsessed with Kim Eunji and his obsession had gone out of control to the point that he agreed on his now wife's plan to drug Kim Eunji and sleep with her.
Jin Li Rong smiled evilly.
Now, the only thing they're concerned of was that Kim Eunji had a lot of capable guards surrounding her.
The school administration and the student body had already known Kim Eunji's real status therefore they had speculated that the people around her must be unordinary as well.
These people were Darren and Derrek. She didn't know them but a few of her loyal followers reported that they had seen either of these men talking to Kim Eunji. If her guess was right, these two were arranged by Nathan to look out for Kim Eunji. They must be highly skilled and capable.
As for Iris, she was already out of the question since she had known her as her brother's subordinate back then. So, she had an idea of her capabilities. And she had witnessed it herself on the day she attempted to hurt Kim Eunji.
A person full of greed and envy in their hearts will never fully grasp the true meaning of happiness. They will always be looking for more therefore they would never know what contentment is.
Value what's in front of you. It's okay to dream but don't aim something unreachable and impossible. Don't be too overly delusional and eccentric.
Remember that there are a lot of people in the world, and the world does not revolve around one man.
Imagine f the world revolves around you, then does that mean you're the sun? Even the sun was not the center of the Milky Way galaxy and our galaxy is not the center of the universe. The center of the universe is still unknown.
Punishing Kim Eunji by such means? Their wish was like naturally turning a black crow into white. Unless they had a more powerful backing...that could be possible but improbable.
While the two were scheming against Kim Eunji, the person in question was being blindfolded by Iris and Guo Xiaolan as they headed back to the university.
She was escorted by Iris earlier and went to the stylist's place. Kim Eunji had no idea how she looked like since they didn't let her see her face and they strictly instructed the stylist to make sure no mirror inside his studio as much as possible. They also asked her to remove her contact lenses just in case she became sneaky and cheat on them.
After her make-up was done, she was changed into a dress which she had no idea what it looked like because they didn't let her to see it.
Kim Eunji was completely clueless of how she looked like after the make over.
Nathan called her earlier even before they started to reassure her that everything would be fine. To trust him with this. He also informed her that she was already nearby. He just had to drop by somewhere else to get something.
The van stopped and she could feel everyone leaving the van one by one.
Then, someone held her hand and she could tell that it was Iris who was holding her…guiding her every steps as she was technically blind at the moment.
A few more steps and she was now walking along the corridor which leas them into this resting lounge where she had to stay until someone picked her up.
She was given an mp3 player to listen to the songs she might like just to pass the time. She had no choice but to agree to this arrangement.
She didn't know what the fuzz was all about. If this was a prank like what she had seen in the movies, she would surely beat Nathan if she'd see him later.
After waiting for almost an hour, she could hear the door creaked open. The volume of the mp3 player was not that loud for her to not hear what was going on around her.
She could clearly hear steady steps on top of the music which was playing on the earphones in her ear. Those steps were very familiar and she smiled when she could also smell the familiar scent she liked which immediately consumed her senses.
"You're here?" Kim Eunji said as she removed the ear phones from her ear.
"Seems like I could not pretend to be someone else wifey. Even with blindfold on, you knew me very well." Nathan chuckled afterwards.
"Of course, you're now embedded not only in my heart, mind but also in my every being. And no one could defeat that sense of safety and familiarity that I'll always feel whenever you're around." Kim Eunji sincerely expressed.
She was about to stand up but Nathan immediately rushed beside her and said, "Careful, you're wearing heels now. Not flats."
"Oh!" Kim Eunji's reaction was so cute that Nathan could not help but pinch her cheeks.
"Aw!" Kim Eunji pouted childishly when she felt a sting on her both cheeks.
Nathan found it very adorable and he knew that a lot would be smitten by her of she would do that to anyone.
With this thought alone, Nathan's possessive nature emerged once again.
"You're only allowed to be this cute in front of me, okay? If I learned that you'd do that to other people, I would surely punish you." He seriously warned her.
Kim Eunji who's dare devil side had been dormant for some time woke up and challenged Satan as she seductively said, "What will you do?"
Nathan who had been controlling herself to not pounce on her the moment she saw her earlier could only close his eyes and inhaled deeply before he answered her question in an equally manner.
He placed his hand on her nape while his other hand on her slender waist as he hoarsely said, "Something you won't dare to imagine."
Kim Eunji could feel some wetness pooling in the area between her thighs that she automatically rubbed her thighs together to control the heat that was slowly flaring up inside her.
'Gosh! When did I become this horny?' She asked herself.
Maybe because Nathan was so close that's why her body reacted like this.
Her reaction didn't go unnoticed to Nathan. The man even smirked when he realized that his wife was horny at the moment.
Well, he felt the same way, too. However, they still had a party to attend. So he had to calm down himself and put his little brother to a nap first.
And a surprise to reveal.
"Let's go." Nathan held Kim Eunji's hand and gently guided her out.
Nathan walked behind her while supporting both of her shoulders to make sure that she won't fall down.
After walking for about a hundred and fifty steps, Kim Eunji could already hear a faint sound of chatting voices.
Well, she knew that the function hall was sound proof at least so not much sound would be heard from the outside.
"Are we there yet?" she asked impatiently.
"Hahahha. Not yet, wifey."
"Oh."
Then, all of a sudden, Kim Eunji felt that Nathan removed his hand off her shoulder.
This sudden loss of contact made Kim Eunji to frown. She also could hear that Nathan was moving away from her.
She started to panic and called out his name. "Nathan?"
However, instead of hearing his response, Kim Eunji heard the door to the pavilion opened.
The busy and buzzing crowd inside the pavilion quieted down when they heard the opening of the door.
Then, their silence was replaced by gasped when they saw a stunning silhouette standing a few meters from the door.
They could see that she was wearing a very stunning sparkly yet classy and elegant champagne off shoulder, big long tail crystal lace, embroidered dress.
At first glance one would thought that nothing was special with the gown. However if one would examine it closely, the gown belonged to a haute couture collection.
The thread used in the embroidery were no ordinary golden threads. Also, the crystal in the chest area were made from thousands of Swarovski crystals that sparkled when the light struck to it.
Also, her hair was curled in a messy bun with few stray hair strands hanging at the side of her face near her ear. They were safely tied together with a golden Chinese hairpin which if she would see her reflection in the mirror, she would recognize it immediately.
It's from her mother, Layla Jin Fiore or Layla Kim when she married her father, Kim Min Joon and Layla Watson on their organization. But it was originally owned by her grandmother. That hairpin could be considered as her heirloom.
Kim Eunji was wearing the necklace and the two rings that Nathan had given to her. Her make-up was so simple. Well, she doesn't need one since her beauty was already outstanding. Her red lips completed the entire look. Making her elegant yet seductive.
Iris and Marie approached the still clueless Kim Eunji.
"Mistress." The two called her in chorus.
"It's time." Iris told her and asked if she could remove the blindfold herself.
After she did that, Iris handed her the contacts that she would be wearing for the night which Kim Eunji turn around and wore 'em in a hurry.
She didn't like the feeling of not clearly seeing everything.
When she was done, she turned around and was surprised to clearly see a surprise guest.
"J?" Kim Eunji called the man who's back was facing her. He was wearing a tailor-made grey outfit. Though his back was facing her, she immediately recognized who he was based on his posture and body build.
The man then turn around with a charming smile.
J walked towards her and they immediately made their bro handshake.
"You look so beautiful tonight Eunji." He sang his praises on her beauty.
'What a shame, it should be me who would be your date for tonight.' He continued on his mind.
Without him knowing, he had only realized tonight that Kim Eunji could no longer be his world. He had admitted his defeat a long time ago.
Of course he didn't want to sound nuts so he decided to keep those kinds of thoughts in his head.
"Thanks." She replied while trying her best to hide her blushed face.
"What are you doing here? This is supposedly a close event right? It's the school's acquaintance party for students. Unless you're a student, you're welcome to come but you aren't." She asked and stated her point at the same time.
J pursed his lips and then answered.
"Yes. This was supposed to be the students' affair. However, your husband wanted to make this night's event more special and memorable for everyone. And I would never dare to miss this night." J reasoned.
"Oh?" Kim Eunji frowned upon hearing that.
"Kim Eunji, will you give me the privilege to walk you inside?"
"Yeah." Kim Eunji agreed to his request without batting an eye.
