Chapter 3 Being Late

"Damn it! There are only three minutes left." Selina glanced at the watch on her wrist and her eyes widened at the time.

Suddenly, she felt a gust of hot wind and saw the Porsche speed away.

"Clap!" Selena gasped for air as she opened the classroom door. She clutched the side of her waist and tried to catch her breath.

"What's your name?" A stern voice called out to her from the front of the classroom.

It was not until Selina saw the class director standing in front of her that she responded. She immediately straightened up. "Selina Qian."

The class director's eyes lit up. Selina Qian? The one who scored the highest in the one hundred and fiftieth entrance exam?

"Selina, find a seat and sit down. Don't be late next time," the director said in a softer tone.

"I won't," Selina said, her face warm.

"You can sit on that vacant seat," the director said, pointing at a seat in the second row.

"Okay," said Selina. She walked towards her seat and looked around her, desperate to find a familiar face. She was disappointed to see that she did not know anyone.

"Now that everyone is here, I'll introduce myself. My name is Allen Chen. You can call me Allen." Allen Chen put his hands on the desk and glanced at the students' faces. He stared at Selina and said, "Selina, since you got the first place in the whole grade for the entrance exam, I'm leaving you temporarily in charge of recent class affairs."

"Ah, me?" Selina blinked. "O-okay..." Selina did not expect to be put on the spot.

"You can head to the dormitory and put your luggage away first. Familiarize yourself with the campus. Also, don't forget to get your uniforms from the downstairs office. You will be needing them starting tomorrow." With that, Allen Chen strode out of the classroom.

"So... you're Selina?" a voice asked. Selina turned around and found herself face to face with a pretty girl. She had almond-shaped, brown eyes and wavy, brown hair that flowed all the way to her waist. Her clothes complemented her tight figure.

"Y-yes. Yes, I am! Who are you?" Selina smiled.

"I'm Monica Yi. I'm your roommate."

"Oh, I see. Nice to meet you." Selina was worried that she'd have trouble making friends, but now here she was, making her very first one!

"You, too." Monica Yi shook hands with Selina and smiled at her.

Selina had heard that the MJN University was a high-end school for nobles. It took her thirty minutes to walk from the classroom to the dormitories. Selina feasted her eyes on the beautiful buildings that surrounded the whole campus. They had all been standing for a long time but they did not seem to show any signs of aging. They were truly breathtaking. A small river stood between the girls' and boys' dormitories, glimmering blue in the midday sun. Selina marveled at it and sighed deeply, entranced by the beauty of it all.
