The Satan CEO's Woman: He Unexpectedly Fell in Love with Her

After eating, the trio went back to their room so they could take get ready.

At nine in the morning, the rest of the team arrived in school with their uniforms on.

Celine had become the team's muse since Eunji and Kelly refused the position.

They decided to be their team manager and water girl instead.

They were now gathering inside the locker room inside the sports complex.

"Remember, let's just enjoy the game. If they made a basket, then, let's do our best and make a score for us, too." Nathan, being the designated team captain told his team.

Of course, they understood what Nathan meant.

At exactly quarter to ten in the morning, the team went out of the locker room and then used the side entrance to enter the venue of their game.

Everyone screamed in excitement when they saw Nathan's team.

Their opposing team was already present when they arrived. They were the other school's basketball varsity team who won the championship match yesterday.

On the other hand, the players from the Business Department came second.

The game was neck and neck after the first half. However, the winning team had made a big run on the second half and the losing team could not keep up with them especially after three of their first five players suffered from injuries at the most crucial fourth quarter.

Everyone saw the opponents playing dirty but the referee could not give them a warning because they knew how to disguise their dirty plays well.

So even if they had the home court advantage, the players of Imperial University had suffered a loss.

Now, the students hoped that Nathan's team would avenge their loss yesterday.

Now, Nathan's team was facing a tough opponent.

The opposing team had arrived thirty minutes before ten. And the members used their time for practice shooting.

Eunji and Kelly were both amazed to see the jam packed sports complex.

Since the school gym could not hold the number of audiences who wanted to watch the game, they decided to move into a much bigger complex inside the vicinity of the campus.

"Wow!" Kelly said in amazement.

Eunji was already used to this kind of scene ever since she arrived in Imperial University.

The students supporting the team were bringing signage and poster with good luck messages for the team.

The game was supposed to be shorter than the original time. They're arranged to play within two quarters with thirteen minutes each quarter.

But due to the student's demand, Nathan's team agreed to play the entire four quarter game with ten minutes time per quarter.

The referees and the officiating officials of the match also came in and went on their respective stations.

They asked the team captains of both teams to come to the officials table to hand in the official names of their players.

After that, both teams used both basket rings for practice shooting and warming up.

Nathan was confident on his basketball skills so were the rest.

At least, their skills were on par with the players playing on the professional league.

Jeong Ho practiced his three point shots together with Nathan and Mo Jing-sheng.

On the other hand, Jin Jie and Zhang Wei practiced their foot work after they did stretching.

All of them came to the game prepared and well-rested.

They could not afford to suffer any injuries in the game.

When they heard the sound of the whistle from the referee, Nathan's team made a huddle.

"Eunjiyah, do you think our team will win? Look at their opponents, they're good at it. On the other hand, our husband's they were only fooling around while warming up earlier." Kelly asked as she was nervous.

This was the first time that she'd be attending a basketball match.

Though this was supposed to be a friendly match between teams, the environment had really shifted into a very competitive one.

Of course, both teams had their own pride.

"Kel, we have watched their practice yesterday. They're pretty good right? So I am sure, they'll win. If they won't I am sure that they'll give them a fight." Eunji said which made Kelly to calm down.

"Eunji's right Kelly. I know my brother so well, he won't let someone to belittle him. Not in the business world, most importantly, not in basketball." Celine also chimed in as she decided to sit on the bench beside the two ladies.

The players then gathered at the center of the court for a jump ball.

Being the Center and the Team Captain, he positioned himself opposite of the other team's Center.

The referee blew the whistle and then tossed the ball up and Nathan jumped to get the ball on their side. With that, the game clock and the shot clock started running as displayed on the screen above the court.

He made an internal fist bump when he successfully deflected the ball on their side and Kim Jeong Ho got it.

Kim Jeong Ho then passed the ball to Mo Jing-sheng and waited for Nathan to catch up with them before they started their offense.

There's not much difference compared to height among all players.

So the one guarding them would not say they were at an advantage just because Nathan's team were shorter than them.

Mo Jing-sheng passed the ball to Nathan who dribbled the ball and dashed towards the basket.

Everyone thought he would make a lay up or a dunk but on the next second, he passed the ball to Hua Zhang Wei who was free beyond the rainbow line.

Zhang Wei grinned as he received the ball and made a lay up.

"Three points!" The game announcer shouted in surprise after Hua Zhang Wei made the three-point basket.

With that, Nathan's team scored first.

"Defense!" Nathan announced while running towards their base.

He also threw an intimidating look towards their opponent. Especially on the center of the other team who had been looking at Eunji since they came.

He didn't like the way he looked at Eunji at all.

Their opponent made their first basket and now Nathan's team was on offense.

"Zhang Wei!" Nathan called and the opponents thought that he would pass the ball to him again but Nathan made the basket himself.

"Fools." Nathan mumbled.

During the first quarter, Nathan's team was leading by five points after they forced the other team to foul J and the latter had successfully made his two free throws.

At break time, Eunji stood up to wipe Nathan's sweat.

Nathan wanted to refuse her but seeing that Eunji was no longer affected by his sweaty smell, he then finally let her.

"Wifey. I need my energy booster." Nathan meaningfully told Eunji who thought that he was asking for an energy drink.

She was about to go and bring a bottle of Gatorade for him but Nathan pulled her by the waist and claimed her lips.

Nathan kissed her not minding the thousand pair of eyes looking at them.

"The Bai Couple's showing off their love for each other at the expense of our single hearts." The announcer teased the couple.

Nathan inwardly smiled after he realized that Eunji was already catching her breath.

"What was that for hubby? Do you want me to die?" Eunji asked him as the kiss was so torrid that it overwhelmed her. And besides, in PUBLIC? It was very embarrassing for her.

"Of course not. You forgot to give me a good luck kiss earlier so I am claiming it now twice together with the interest." Nathan explained.

"Wifey, I'll definitely win this game. You and our babies are my lucky charm." Nathan meaningfully added which made the latter to totally calm down.

"No, I believe today is your lucky day. It's your birthday after all." Eunji warmly responded.

"Yeah right!"

After their sweet exchange, Nathan went back inside the court while Eunji went back to the bench with a smile on her face.

"Nathan-niichan sure knew how to claim his rights towards you, Eunjichan." Celine teased.

"Yuki-neechan! Stop it!" Eunji complained while trying to hide her reddish face.

"Cute." Celine said and then reached out to pinch Eunji's cheeks.

"So squeezy. I envy brother for having the privilege to squeeze them everyday." Celine commented which made Kelly to laugh as well.

"Nah, don't you know that brother-in-law liked to tease Eunjiyah because she looked so cute when she's huffing and pouting?" Kelly told Celine.

"Oh! I already guessed that he would do that. After all, he's such a bully."

"Indeed he is!" Eunji agreed with Celine.

Nathan who was dribbling the ball and running towards the opponent's basket involuntarily sneezed.

He then looked towards the cause of his sneezing and saw that the three were giggling while looking towards him.

Everyone thought that Nathan's team would maintain the momentum on their side since they were leading before the second quarter started.

But, the opponents caught up and even made a 7-0 run and closed the first half with an nine points lead in favor of the opponent.

Because of this, everyone doubted if they could win the match.

For sure, the opponent would take advantage of the fact that they were leading.

However, when they looked at Nathan and the rest, they were smiling as they walked towards their locker room and have their break there.

Also, the three women was confident that Nathan and the rest could turn the game over.

After all, the ball is round and as long as the game clock had not run out, they still had the chance to turn things over.

Just like in life, even if the situation is already unfavorable, as long as you still had the chance to make it favorable, then don't give up. Turn things over in your favor.

Make the worse game, the best game.
