Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 520

Hearing the door open, the three girls who were chatting inside all turned their heads at once. They had heard that the perfect-score scholar, Jimmie Tate's sister, would be their roommate. They had been buzzing with anticipation all night, and now, here she was.

Juniper took off her baseball cap, her eyes meeting the six intense, glowing stares fixed on her. They looked at her as if she were a priceless treasure.

Thinking she might have the wrong room, Juniper stepped back to check the number on the door. Nope, this was it.

"Are you... Juniper?" a girl named Hattie was the first to speak.

Damn. Was the genius's face CGI? How could anyone be this beautiful? It felt unreal!

"I am," Juniper replied with a slight nod.

"Come in, come in!" Hattie immediately rushed forward, enthusiastically taking Juniper's suitcase. "Everyone here has heard about you. We're all so impressed."

"Yeah!" Lola chimed in, nodding eagerly. "We were ecstatic when we found out you were in our dorm."

"Juniper, you're amazing," said the third girl, Cynthia. She was so excited she gently tugged on Juniper's sleeve, her eyes sparkling. "A perfect score! How did you even do that?"

Every student at Eclara University was a top performer from their respective high schools. They had all been feeling pretty proud of themselves, but seeing Juniper was a humbling reminder that there's always someone better.

Ever since watching the live broadcast of Juniper acing the exam questions, they had developed a deep respect for her genuine talent.

Listening to her three roommates chatter away, Juniper pursed her lips and said, "Hi, I'm Juniper."

"Get settled in," Hattie said warmly, leading Juniper to her bunk and showing her around the dorm, pointing out the water fountain, showers, and laundry room. They were certainly friendly.

"Want a snack?" Juniper felt they were nice enough, if a bit talkative. She opened her backpack, pulled out some of her favorite snacks, and offered them around.
