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

Chapter 97 - 97: New Friends

Morning came and Kim Eunji's eyelids fluttered like butterfly wings. As her eyes opened, she immediately reached out for her eye glasses so she could clearly see the entire room.

She saw that the screen on her phone had already turned off. When she unlocked it, a message notification popped up on the screen which came from the sender 'My Beloved Man'.

A smile formed on her lips when she read a long and sweet message from Nathan.

She didn't realize when she fell asleep light not. She really thought she would have a  hard time adjusting to this new environment.

Well, she really might have difficulty but thanks to Nathan's T-shirt and his humming, she felt relaxed all night.

Seeing that her phone was almost out of battery, she decided to charge it.

The others were also waking up when she did. Just then, she frowned when she hadn't seen Iris on her bed but she could hear running water from the bathroom. Which meant Iris must have been having an early morning shower.

"Good morning." Marie greeted everyone out of courtesy but decided to lay back in her bed and closed her eyes as if she was waiting for something.

"Good morning, Marie. Good morning EJ. Did you guys have a good sleep?" Guo Xiaolan greeted and asked them.

"I did. Thank you for asking." Kim Eunji simply replied with equal enthusiasm. Marie simply hummed with her eyes still closed. She was uninterested to whatever the two would be talking about.

Well, Guo Xiaolan was also yawning. They fell asleep late. They got hooked by the show that they were watching that they didn't realize it was already one in the morning. They used VPN so they could access Netflix. A classmate showed it to them the last time and they got curious about it.

"Gosh! I really envy your beauty EJ. Well, you looked beautiful even you had just woke up. You're perfect example of 'Woke up like this look.' You looked perfect even with that big round eyeglasses on."

Kim Eunji warmly smiled though she tried to hide her red face. For her, there's nothing extra ordinary with her face at all.

Then they heard a knock on the main door which stopped Guo Xiaolan from saying more.

"What's that?" Kim Eunji curiously asked.

"Morning call. Breakfast will be serving after forty-five minutes. We should hurry. They are so strict with meal time here." Guo Xiaolan explained.

"Okay." In a swift move, she immediately made her bed. After she was done, Kim Eunji hopped off the bed which greatly shocked Guo Xiaolan. Even the still sleepy Marie immediately became wide awake all of a sudden.

"Are you okay?" Guo Xiaolan and Marie immediately asked.

"Yes. I'm fine. Why?" Kim Eunji innocently answered and asked them back.

"Didn't you fall just now?" Marie asked her.

"--__--" Kim Eunji was rendered speechless because she had realized her mistake. How could she forget that she's with normal people. How could she do something unusual.

"No. I didn't. I just literally hopped out of the bed. It's no big deal. The bed was not that high." She honestly answered and backed it up with a proper reasoning.

But it was almost her height of 176 cm.

"I didn't know you like to do parkour-ish like moves."

"Parkour? Yeah. Kind of." Now was not the right time to brag.

"Well, we should get going or else we would be late for breakfast." Marie announced. Compared to yesterday, she had a better treatment with Kim Eunji.

Iris who had just freshly showered came in.

"Bathroom's ready!" She announced.

"I don't think showering would be advisable at the moment. We have no more time for that." Guo Xiaolan reminded them as she folded her blanket and made her bed.

Kim Eunji rushed to the bathroom to wash her face with water and brush her teeth. She did all of that in two minutes. Marie and Guo Xiaolan followed right after she was done.

When she came back to the room, she grabbed her skin care kit and applied her morning skin care routine. Since her face was already washed with water she grabbed her toner and applied it with cotton. She then took the serum which she had made from natural herbs and plants which could help and maintain her healthy and glowing skin. Then the eye cream and lastly the sunscreen.

She did all of that in less than ten minutes.

Next, she took the cream from her kit and applied it on the scar on her forehead. She also lifted her shirt a bit to also apply on her surgery scar on her side. Iris was watching on the door all this time just in case the two would come in.

She also applied some on the visible marks on her neck which happened to get contact with water. Good thing she was so quick on covering them earlier.

Marie and Guo Xiaolan came back after they finished doing their morning routine in the bathroom.

As soon as they entered the room, they were greeted with fresh smell of citrus and nature in general.

"So fresh!" It was Guo Xiaolan who complimented.

Kim Eunji only smiled at them as she opened her wardrobe. She grabbed a grey track pants and decided to not change Nathan's shirt.

As gross as it looked like but she didn't care at all. She missed him. She missed his morning kisses and naughty remarks about her.

She hurriedly went back to bathroom to change her pants. After changing, she took a look at her reflection on the mirror to see if she was good to go.

Just then, he heard a knock on the bathroom door and heard Iris' voice.

"EJ, are you done? Marie wanted to change her clothes as well." Iris said from the other side.

"I'm done!" Kim Eunji shortly replied and tucked the frontal hem of her shirt under her pants.

When she walked out, she entered the room since it was unlocked.

Guo Xiaolan had also finished changing her clothes and was now brushing her hair. Just like Kim Eunji, she was wearing a track pants in black color with stripes on the side.

Kim Eunji placed her dirty-laundry in her laundry bag.

Then, she looked for her phone and plugged it in.

'It should be full when I come back after breakfast.' She thought.

Kim Eunji then decided to brush her hair one more time and fixed her bangs and her eye glasses.

She grabbed her keys, IDs and her IU card from her table and walked out to the living room where the rest were waiting for her.

Marie was about to complain to her for making them wait but she decided to shut up when she saw Guo Xiaolan throwing her a warning glare.

"Let's go?"

Iris lead the way to the door but exited last so she could lock the door after everyone was out.

They arrived at the cafeteria earlier than expected. Even though, the first floor of the cafeteria was almost full.

Guo Xiaolan grabbed Kim Eunji's hand and was about to bring Kim Eunji to their table with her school friends and fellow scholars.

"Wait." Kim Eunji said which made Guo Xiaolan to pause from walking as well.

"I'm just hoping that you would share your first breakfast with us?" Guo Xiaolan confessed. Somehow she felt nervous seeing Kim Eunji's serious face.

Seeing Guo Xiaolan's pouting cute face, Kim Eunji sighed. She had a weakness with cute and furry things.

"Okay. But I don't think Iris and I are welcome in your table. After all, we're an outsider. I mean new students." Kim Eunji tried to explain.

Hearing her reason, Guo Xiaolan smiled as she said, "Don't worry, EJ. My friends are friendly. Also, no one would bully you in our circle if that's what you're worried about." Guo Xiaolan explained.

"Okay." Kim Eunji smiled and Guo Xiaolan to drag her in their table.

The girls paused from talking to each other when they saw Guo Xiaolan dragging the new student behind her while Marie and another new student walked behind them.

However, even from a distance, they were surprised by the new student's beauty and aura. Even the students sitting on the nearby table had paused from talking when they saw them.

'So beautiful.' They had the exact same thought.

"Girls, let's welcome the new addition to the family, EJ?" Guo Xiaolan gave Kim Eunji the chance to introduce herself to the rest.

"Hi. The family name is Kim and given name Eunji. But you can call me Eunji or EJ or Sister Eunji since I'm your senior when it comes to age I guess. It's nice to meet you all." Kim Eunji calmly spoke with her warm voice which was loud enough for the students sitting on the nearby table to hear. She hoped that her tone was somehow friendly enough.

However what answered her was silence.

Kim Eunji scanned the table and waited for their reaction without realizing that they were star struck by her beauty.

Kim Eunji who was oblivious to their thoughts suddenly became nervous. She had been expecting that not all people would welcome her.

But on the contrary, the moment the students from their table had recovered from daze, they immediately stood up and surrounded her. Joy was evident on their faces.

"My name's Yun Mei." A girl with a bob cut hair introduced her self first as she reached out her hand for a hand shake.

"Yeah right? Hello Goddess Kim. I'm Fu Rong."

"Hello EJ. I'm Wen Zhen."

Others introduced themselves to her as well.

Seeing the warm reception from the others, Kim Eunji would be lying if she would say she was not moved by it.

Guo Xiaolan, Marie, Yun Mei, Fu Rong, and Wen Zhen were the closest in the circle. They treated each other as sisters. And Guo Xiaolan leads them.

"Haist! Marie and Leader Guo is really lucky as they're roommates with the currently hot celebrity in the entire Imperial." Fu Rong commented in a jealous tone.

Though Kim Eunji was not looking around, she could still see in her peripheral vision that everyone was looking towards their direction.

"What's going on?" Kim Eunji asked to no one in particular.

"Girls take it easy. Why don't we have a sit first?" Guo Xiaolan decided to intervene.

Kim Eunji immediately became the center of attention on their table. Iris who was standing behind her back was also given the seat beside her which she gladly took.

"So... yesterday..." Guo Xiaolan decided to explain everything to Kim Eunji.
