Chapter 492 - Girls' Talk

~ University of Imperial Knight ~

After the Centennial Year Celebration of the City of Empire, other students of the Imperial Knight found out that Lillie Meyer, their Campus Belle, was the wife of Tristan Davis, the CEO of Heavenly Star Enterprise.

It was a huge shock to everyone. Now, they understood why the CEO and the Chairman even attended the selection of Campus Belle and supported her. It turned out that she was connected to the Davis Family.

The students who looked down on Zhen-Zhen especially Athena, Jade, and her group of friends felt like they were slapped on the face after knowing the truth. 

Other students who insulted Zhen-Zhen before also regretted their actions.

Who would have thought that Zhen-Zhen would choose to be a low profile and hide her true identity from them? 

Now, they were afraid to offend Zhen-Zhen and Sophia, or else, the Davis Family would become their enemy. No one would dare to bully Zhen-Zhen's friend because they knew that she had a strong backup.

Even Alicia and Betsy could hardly believe that she was the wife of Tristan. They thought they were still on the dating stage. But they were so wrong.

Zhen-Zhen and Tristan were already married and they were so happy together. They even saw how they acted very sweetly during the live broadcast of the Gala.

Alicia already gave up on chasing after Tristan. It was not worth it. Besides, she already accepted that she couldn't win against Zhen-Zhen. 

Alicia and Betsy had already decided that they would try to get closer to Zhen-Zhen and become her friends for real. This time no more ill-motives, just pure intentions only.

Since Zhen-Zhen's identity was no longer a secret to everyone, they tried their best to treat her well. Even the other professors were very cautious and careful when treating her during the class.

Before she was just a studious intelligent scholar who became a Campus Belle. But now, they were treating Zhen-Zhen as the Queen of the Campus. She's beautiful and smart. 

Furthermore, they learned that she had an extraordinary background, a member of the Davis Family so they were treating her with the utmost respect, even the higher-ups of the university.

For the past few days, Zhen-Zhen classmates were wondering why they saw a lady in black who was always following her around. 

Later on, they found out that she was a lady bodyguard of Zhen-Zhen. Her name was Bianca, 24 years old.

She looked pretty and cool. But they didn't know that she was very talented and skillful when it came to fighting and fist-combat. 

She was the chosen bodyguard by the Davis Family to keep an eye on and protect Zhen-Zhen at all times.

The three of them were eating their snacks inside the school cafeteria. Sophia and Zhen-Zhen were asking Bianca about her experiences in the military.

"Bianca, is it hard to do the training? Are they strict with women too or is there special treatment for women?" Sophia asked Bianca with intrigue.

Bianca shook her head and said, "There is no special treatment. They treated both men and women as equals. Same training, same experience, same hardsh.i.p.s."

Sophia gasped after hearing that. "Oh my gosh, Bianca! You are so cool. You survived it. I admire you for that. I don't know if I can leave the training camp alive if ever I am in your position."

"I wanna try it," Zhen-Zhen suddenly blurted out.

Sophia: "..."

Bianca: "..."

Both of them immediately shook their heads because of Zhen-Zhen's last remarks.

"I don't think Tristan will allow you to undergo such intense training. Don't even think of doing that." Sophia opposed her idea right away.

She looked like a princess to be doted on and pampered with love, not someone who needed to undergo such hard and intense training.

Little did they know, Zhen-Zhen was not as weak as what they were thinking right now. She had super strength that can surpass every ordinary human being.

However, Sophia had a point. Though she was strong and powerful, Tristan would never allow her to do that.

"I am here to protect you, Miss Lillie. No need to undergo that intense physical training," Bianca reassured Zhen-Zhen.

She just gave them a faint smile. Of course, she won't do it. She was pregnant right now and her main priority was to protect Little Davis. Besides, she already had the power and strength to do that.

"Sigh, time passed by too quickly. Only two months left before the end of this semester. I'm gonna miss you, Lillie!" Sophia mumbled, feeling a little bit sad. She hugged Zhen-Zhen's arm and leaned on her shoulder.

"Don't be sad. Bianca and I will visit you here anytime. You can also come to the Davis Family Mansion. Ask Matthew to accompany you," Zhen-Zhen said to console Sophia.

Sophia blushed at the mention of Matthew's name. She would always feel embarrassed when it came to Matthew. She couldn't believe that she was really dating him now.

Zhen-Zhen and Bianca burst out laughing after noticing Sophia's reddened face.

"I agree with Bianca. Just like Tristan, Matthew is being protective of you. I'm so happy that the two of you are finally dating. You match each other well," Zhen-Zhen said, smiling at Sophia tenderly.

Sophia just bit her lower lip before nodding her head. Then she remembered someone.

"Do you have news about sis Alveena? What happened to her love confession? We didn't hear anything from her for the past few days. I hope it went well," Sophia found a new topic to divert their attention away from Matthew and her.

Zhen-Zhen felt saddened after hearing that. She learned from Tristan that Alveena had stopped working as a personal assistant of Andrew. They didn't know her reason for quitting her job without even saying goodbye.

"I didn't have an update about her either. Tristan told me that she had already stopped reporting to Heavenly Star Enterprise since Monday," Zhen-Zhen informed them.

"Huh? I didn't know that. Is she alright?" Sophia became worried about Alveena.

"Why don't you try contacting her?" Bianca suggested to them.

"True, I have her number. Wait… let me call her." Zhen-Zhen picked up her phone and dialed Alveena's number.

Alveena's phone was ringing but she failed to answer the first call. Zhen-Zhen dialed her number again, hoping that she would be able to answer it this time around.

Alveena: "My goddess!!! I'm sorry I was not able to answer your first call. I was so busy moving my stuff that I failed to notice that my phone was ringing!"

Alveena apologized to Zhen-Zhen right away and explained. Though Zhen-Zhen was Andrew's sister-in-law, Alveena didn't have the heart to avoid her or ignore her call. Zhen-Zhen was her friend after all.

Zhen-Zhen: "Sis Alvee, are you okay? We heard that you already quit your job at the Heavenly Star Enterprise. Did my brother-in-law do something that upset you?"

Alveena fell silent for a moment. Just a mere mention of Andrew's name could really affect her emotions greatly. She felt like crying again.

After a few seconds of gathering herself, Alveena tried her best to sound cheerful while talking to Zhen-Zhen.

Alveena: "No. It's not about Andrew. The truth is I am just working for him as a part-timer. We only agreed that I would work as his personal assistant for one month. I found a new job. I'm sorry, it was very urgent that I failed to say goodbye to my boss. Don't worry, I will talk to him next time."

Zhen-Zhen: "I understand. By the way, I am with Bianca and Sophia right now. They want to say hello."

After saying that, Zhen-Zhen put the phone on the loudspeaker. Bianca and Sophia greeted her and said "hello" to Alveena.

Sophia: "Sis Alvee, I'm being nosy and shameless now, but can I ask you about your love confession? How was it? How did it go?"

Alveena: "Hmm, should I answer you here on the phone or should I tell you personally?"

Zhen-Zhen, Sophia, and Bianca exchanged glances with one another. After a while, the three of them answered her in unison.

Zhen-Zhen: "In person!"

Sophia: "Personally!"

Bianca: "Let's meet!"
