After my conversation with the principal, I went directly to his office to collect my schedule. It turned out that he knew me well, as he used to work for my father in the past. After receiving my schedule, Zhe and I headed straight to our classes. Unfortunately, Zhe's class was different from mine, so we parted ways.
As I reached my classroom, I knocked on the door, and every eye turned to me as if I were a celebrity. Well, not to brag, but I’ve always been more than just a celebrity in many ways. Scanning the room, I noticed some familiar faces, and among them was none other than Jungkook of BTS and some members from ??? group. Their shocked expressions amused me.
I knocked again to draw the teacher’s attention.
Y/n: Knock-knock (Knocking on the door)
Teacher: "Yes, child? How can I help you?"
Y/n: "I’m a new student here, teacher." (calm but cold)
Teacher: "Oh, yes! The principal informed me about our new student. You must be Miss Y/n, correct?"
Y/n: "Yes, that’s me."
Teacher: "Please, come in. Could you introduce yourself to the class? Although I’m sure most of them already know you."
Y/n: (steps inside) "Hello, everyone. My name is Lee Y/n. I’m originally from Australia, and as most of you probably already know, I’m the youngest CEO of Oracle and the richest girl in the world. That’s all you need to know." (calm and cold)
The class murmured amongst themselves, clearly impressed, while the teacher looked a little flustered.
Teacher: "Yes, of course. Thank you for that, Miss Y/n."
Suddenly, a student raised his hand.
???1: "Ma’am, can we ask Miss Y/n a question?"
Y/n: "I believe most of you have seen me on the news, so I doubt there’s much left to ask."
???2: "Still, there are things people don’t know about you!"
Y/n: (coolly) "If anyone wants to know more, they can come to me directly and ask. As long as the question is appropriate, I might answer."
Another student chimed in with a challenging tone.
???3: "But in college, everyone is on the same level. There’s no rich or poor here. Shouldn’t you behave like everyone else?"
Y/n: (piercing gaze) "Before you lecture me on behavior, perhaps you should reflect on how you treat others, regardless of their wealth. And let me make this clear: I don’t need advice on how to act without discrimination. I’ve learned that lesson well, Mr. Han Ji Sung." (calm but cutting)
The teacher quickly stepped in, trying to diffuse the tension.
Teacher: "Ah, yes… Miss Y/n, please take a seat. You can sit next to Mr. Kim Jungkook."
Y/n: (shrugs and walks to her seat) "Hmmm."
??? Group POV:
Today, we decided to arrive at college earlier than usual, avoiding the relentless yells of our fangirls. The four of us, out of the nine in our group, share the same class, so we headed straight to our seats and started chatting casually. Everything seemed normal until the teacher entered the room, ready to begin the lesson.
Just as she was about to start, a knock on the door interrupted her. Like everyone else, the other students turned toward the door, but we didn’t bother—probably just another latecomer. But then we heard that voice.
Familiar. Cold. Unforgettable.
We froze.
It couldn’t be her.
Why would she be here, of all places?
Our curiosity got the better of us, and as we glanced at the door, the shock hit like a tidal wave. It was her. Lee Y/n. The very person we never expected to see again. And yet, here she stood, calmly addressing the teacher as if she hadn’t shaken our lives before.
The teacher invited her inside and asked her to introduce herself. She obliged, but the icy confidence in her voice was a reminder of who she truly was.
Y/n: "Hello, everyone. My name is Lee Y/n. I’m originally from Australia. As you probably already know, I’m the youngest CEO of Oracle and the richest girl in the world. I believe that’s all you need to know."
Her introduction ended with her signature frostiness. Just as the teacher was about to proceed, Felix couldn’t hold back and spoke up.
Felix: "Ma’am, can we ask Miss Y/n a question?"
Y/n: (turning slightly) "I believe you’ve all seen me on the news. There’s nothing more you need to ask."
I.N: "But there’s so much about you that people don’t know!"
Y/n: (with a calm yet firm gaze) "I think I’ve shared enough for now. If anyone wants to know more, they can ask me directly—if their question is appropriate, of course."
Han Ji Sung: (challenging her) "But this is college. Here, everyone is on the same level. There’s no rich, no poor. Shouldn’t you behave accordingly?"
Y/n: (piercingly) "First, reflect on how you treat people, whether they’re poor or rich. Second, I don’t need instructions from you on how to behave without discrimination. I’ve learned that lesson well, Mr. Han Ji Sung." (cold)
The teacher quickly interjected, clearly uncomfortable with the tension.
Teacher: "Ahh, yes… Miss Y/n, please take a seat. You can sit next to Mr. Kim Jungkook."
We watched as she walked to her seat with calm indifference, completely unbothered by the scene she had just created. But for us, the air felt thick with unease.
Why was she here?
What was her motive this time?
One thing was certain: she hadn’t come here by coincidence. She was always calculated, and her presence meant something. We needed to talk to the rest of our group. Whatever this was, it was only the beginning.
Jungkook's POV:
After my brief conversation with Y/n, I headed to my class, my mind swirling with questions. Why had I spoken to her in such a normal tone? It wasn’t like me to let my guard down so easily, especially around someone like her.
As I entered the classroom, I noticed the teacher wasn’t there yet. Late again. Good. That gave me a moment to collect my thoughts. I walked straight to my seat and sat down.
Scanning the room, I noticed four members of Stray Kids sitting together. We don’t usually talk. It’s not that we’re enemies, but we’re far from friends. Our interactions are limited, and I only know basic details about them. As a member of the mafia, it’s my job to know who’s who. With half the college under our influence, gathering intel on others is just part of the business.
Lost in my thoughts, I barely noticed the faint knock at the door. The sound pulled everyone’s attention, including mine. I had a good idea who it might be.
It had to be either Miss Y/n or her assistant, Mr. Chen Zheyuan. After all, they were the only transfer students arriving mid-semester.
As the door opened, my suspicions were confirmed. Y/n stood there, her usual air of icy confidence radiating off her like a shield. She stepped in and introduced herself, her words sharp and direct.
Y/n: "Hello, everyone. My name is Lee Y/n. I’m originally from Australia, and I’m the youngest CEO of Oracle and the richest girl in the world. I think that’s all you need to know."
Classic Y/n. Straight to the point.
I agreed with her—there wasn’t much more she needed to say. Everyone already knew who she was. But then one of the Stray Kids members decided to speak up.
Felix: "Ma’am, can we ask Miss Y/n a question?"
Y/n: "I believe you’ve all seen me on the news. There’s nothing more you need to ask."
I.N: "But there’s so much about you that people don’t know!"
Y/n: (calmly) "I think I’ve shared enough for now. If anyone wants to know more, they can ask me directly—if their question is appropriate, of course."
Han Ji Sung: (challenging) "But this is college. Here, everyone is on the same level. There’s no rich, no poor. Shouldn’t you behave accordingly?"
Y/n: (coldly) "First, reflect on how you treat people, whether they’re poor or rich. Second, I don’t need instructions from you on how to behave without discrimination. I’ve learned that lesson well, Mr. Han Ji Sung."
Her words hung in the air like frost, and I couldn’t help but notice the strained expressions on the Stray Kids members’ faces. They clearly knew her from before. But their reactions weren’t ones of joy—they looked angry.
This piqued my curiosity. What history did they have with her?
I let the thought linger for a moment, but then I shrugged it off. It wasn’t my business, at least not yet.
The teacher broke the tension, instructing Y/n to sit. To my surprise, the seat next to mine was the one she was assigned. She walked over with her usual composure and sat down.
Y/n: "Nice to see you again, Mr. Jungkook." (expressionless)
Jungkook: "Nice to see you again too." (matching her tone)
Her presence felt both familiar and unsettling. Something about her always left me on edge, yet I couldn’t look away. Whatever this was, I had a feeling it was far from over.
