The CEO's Wife Is A Demon God's Daughter

« University of Imperial Knights »

Zhen-Zhen was a first-year photography student. Aside from the photography class, she would join other students for other essential subjects such as English 101, Mathematics 101, Science 101, Literature 101, and other general subjects.

She's also in an irregular class because she enrolled during this second semester. So aside from her classmates in photography class, she would also meet other students from other classes because she would sit in with them.

For today, she had a class schedule for three general subjects such as Math, Science, and English. The first subject this morning was Math.

She was now on the way to their classroom when she saw three girls cornering one girl in the hallway. Just like Zhen-Zhen, they were wearing their university uniform.

The only difference was the length of their skirts. The three of them were wearing above the knee skirts, exposing their long flawless legs.

They looked like the typical pretty girls in school or what they called campus' sweethearts and crushes. On the other hand, the other girl who was surrounded by them was quite the opposite of the three girls.

She wore long skirts, a hooded jacket with thick eye-glasses. She was simple, plain, and reserved compared to the other girls. She looked like the typical nerd student in school.

The three girls were busy talking to the other girl that's why they failed to notice Zhen-Zhen's presence. Out of curiosity, Zhen-Zhen decided to watch them and listen to their conversation.

"Hey, Sophie girl… do you mind sitting beside us for today's class?" The tallest girl told the simple girl named Sophia.

"We heard that you have a crush on Marcus. If you help us with this subject, we will help you to get closer to Marcus." The other slim girl said, suggesting something to Sophia.

"That's true, Marcus is Jade's brother. She can introduce you to her brother anytime." The third girl also spoke up, trying to convince Sophia.

"Yes, I could do that. But don't worry, I won't tell my brother that you have a crush on him," The tallest beautiful woman said. Her name was Jade.

The girl whom they called Sophie just remained silent on her spot while eyeing the three beautiful ladies in front of her. She was annoyed by their action but she tried her best to hide her emotions from them.

She knew the trouble she would face once she offended these three ladies. She was just a nobody compared to them. They were rich kids and famous students at this university.

She only wished that they would leave her alone. She tried her best not to catch the attention of others. She's okay by herself.

But because she's smart and intelligent, she became the target of these three ladies who were having difficulties in the Mathematics subject.

She just wanted to have a peaceful student life until she graduated from this school. She's a scholar. So as much as possible, she didn't want to involve herself with those famous students like them.

But these girls managed to learn her secret and now they were using that at their advantage. She was studying hard but these girls wanted an easy way out.

She knew that they wouldn't stop bothering her until they got what they wanted. Aside from being rich kids, they were also spoiled brats.

But if she would refuse them she's afraid that they would tell Marcus about her secret crush on him or they would start bullying her. Then her peaceful life as a student would be ruined.

After her long silence, Sophia finally agreed with them.

"Okay, I can tutor the three of you in this subject but please just let me sit wherever I want." As much as possible, Sophia wanted to distance herself from them.

Besides, sitting beside was not a good idea also. Their classmates would make her a laughingstock and would think that she was trying to gain attention by getting near their campus' sweethearts.

"Oh, sure! That's great! Thank you, Sophie girl!" Jade said enthusiastically before messing Sophia's hair.

"Alright! See you in the classroom," Jade added, signaling her two friends to follow her.

Soon, the three girls left Sophia in the hallway as they proceeded in their classroom. Sophia breathed a deep long sigh as she watched them walk away.

She shook her head and tugged her hair in frustration. After that, she kicked the wall beside her, causing her to whimper in pain.

"Ouch!" She grunted.

That's the moment she heard a soft giggle behind. When she turned around, she saw a very beautiful maiden standing a few steps away from her.

Sophia was starstruck by her beauty, most especially by her smiling face. Those three ladies a while ago couldn't compare to the lady in front of her right now. Her level was much higher than them.

"Hello! I bet you hurt your foot because of that kick. Please don't do that again."

Sophia was still tongue-tied. She was just staring at her with her unblinking eyes and a mouth wide open.

"Oh, by the way, I'm Lillie, a new student. What's your name?" Zhen-Zhen finally introduced her name to Sophia, extending her right hand to her while giving her a friendly smile.

After a while, Sophia recovered from the deep stupor. She accepted Zhen-Zhen's hand with her embarrassed expression.

"Hello, I'm Sophia. Nice meeting you, Lillie." Sophia returned her smile with an awkward smile.

"Thank you. The pleasure is mine too." Zhen-Zhen responded.

"By the way, are you alright? Are the three girls your classmate?" Zhen-Zhen asked her curiously.

"Yes, they are. The tallest among them is Jade, the girl with the curly hair is Nyka, the shortest among them is Emma. They are the mean girls of this School. So make sure to avoid them in the future. They will just give you more troubles." Because of frustration, Sophia couldn't stop herself from sharing those thoughts with Zhen-Zhen.

Zhen-Zhen nodded her head with a smile. "Okay. I will keep that in mind."

"By the way, what is your year? Are you a transferred student?" Sophia asked her.

"Nope, this is my first year being a student here. How about you?"

"Oh, I am already in my junior year. Only two years left before I graduate from this school." Sophia didn't know why but she felt comfortable talking with her even though this was the first time they met each other.

"That's nice. Then you are my Sunbae right? My senior?" Zhen-Zhen politely asked her.

Sophia couldn't help letting out a soft giggle. Zhen-Zhen's expression was really cute when she asked her that.

"Yeah, I am your Sunbae, because I am ahead of you by two years."

Zhen-Zhen's blue eyes sparkled with joy when she heard that. "Please take care of me, Sunbae. Can we become friends?"

Sophia was taken aback by her question. She didn't expect that.

"Are you sure you want to be my friend? I'm not beautiful like you. I am a dull person, a boring one," Sophia stated.

Zhen-Zhen bobbed her head frantically. "Yes, I want to be your friend. Because you are very kind. You are even willing to help and tutor your classmates. Besides, you are also beautiful, inside out. I like you already!"

Sophia: "..."

'Did she hear our conversation a while ago? I just agreed with them because they forced me and left me with no choice, not because I want to help them.'

Sophia just smiled at her sheepishly. "Alright, let's be friends. I also like you."

And just like that, Zhen-Zhen gained a friend on her first day of school.
