Married to a Millionaire

Chapter 14

It was the first day of university. That night, there would be a class meeting for all the new students to get to know each other and elect the first class committee.

Jennie sat with her three roommates, Irene and Seulgi on the left in the front row, and she and Chaeng behind them. The class advisor suggested they introduce themselves in seating order.

About five minutes later, it was Jennie's turn. She hadn't been in front of so many classmates in a long time. As soon as she stood up, her face turned red. When she got to the front, she looked so innocent and shy that half the boys in the class listened to her introduction very attentively, some even sneakily taking pictures with their phones.

After she finished, Jennie hurried back to her seat to listen attentively to the other new students' introductions. Some of the boys would occasionally glance at her before quickly looking away. Jennie didn't notice until a girl who had just gone up kept looking at her several times. Jennie became curious.

She heard the girl, Nancy, say she was from City C.

There was someone from the same province in their class!

Jennie's eyes lit up and she couldn't help but smile. Nancy on stage also smiled back at her, looking excited.

During the class committee election, encouraged by her three roommates, Jennie signed up to be the academic affairs chairperson. She had heard it could give her extra points when being considered for scholarships. Her competitor was a boy with several pimples on his face. After one round of voting, Jennie won by a huge margin.

After the meeting ended, Jennie had just stepped out of the classroom when Nancy came looking for her.

"Ah, we went to the same high school. How come I never saw you before?" Nancy asked in surprise.

Remembering Lisa's instructions, Jennie said softly, "I took a year off after 10th grade, then transferred schools and lived with my aunt here."

Nancy was even more surprised. Looking at Jennie, she explained, "Then we were in the same grade. I didn't test well enough for college last year so I had to repeat senior year. Which class were you in 10th grade?"

Jennie told her the class, trying hard to remember her 10th grade life, but she couldn't recall anyone named Nancy at all. Nancy was from the city while Jennie was rural. One commuted while the other boarded at school, and they were in separate classes upstairs and downstairs, so it was normal that Jennie didn't remember her.

In any case, meeting a high school classmate in the capital made both Jennie and Nancy very happy. They exchanged phone numbers, and Nancy happened to live in the dorm next to Jennie's, so they agreed to hang out together often in the future.

After the enrollment ceremony was two weeks of military training!

Lisa had prepared a set of fairly high-end skincare products for Jennie. She didn't want to use them at first, but early in the morning, when Chaeng and the other two came out of the bathroom busy putting on sunscreen and kindly reminded her to put some on too, Jennie decided to "do as the Romans do" and took out all the skincare products from her closet.

The set Irene used was the most expensive. Jennie's set didn't stand out much in comparison.

"Is Jennie here?" Nancy suddenly knocked on the door.

Jennie went to open the door while still applying sunscreen to her neck. Nancy smiled and greeted Irene's trio, then asked Jennie, "Shall we go together later?"

"Sure!" Jennie started applying sunscreen to her hands.

Nancy stared at the bottles and jars on her desk, recognizing it was a rather pricey brand she didn't dare buy yet. She looked again at Jennie's phone, also the latest model from a luxury brand.
