Leila was walking and concentrating on studying the location of the next classroom on the campus map given to her by the teacher in the administrative office. She didn't want a person to rush out of the nearby biology classroom and bump into her who was caught off guard. .

Uh...it hurts!

She opened her mouth and let out a low cry, tears almost falling from the corners of her eyes.

The other party reacted quickly, and immediately reached out to support her who was unstable, and then, a voice with a touch of surprise came:

"It's you!"

Um?This voice seems to be so familiar...

Lila raised her head, her eyes turned around the opponent's face, and suddenly realized that she and the opponent were unusually close, so she immediately took two steps back.

A strange feeling crossed my mind.

"So the second transfer student is you!" Edward was full of joy, with a gentle smile on his handsome face, "Do you remember me?"

Laila nodded, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw Bella coming out of the classroom just now, secretly glancing at the person in front of her with hidden grievances and puzzled eyes.

At the same moment, she keenly noticed that the body of the person in front of her suddenly tensed up, the smile faded from that knife-sharpened face, his eyes were as dark as tumbling black clouds, and his whole body revealed A strong breath of rage.

Lyra was taken aback.

Yes, that's right, she saw in this man's eyes——the killing intent that she tried her best to restrain.

But why?

Her eyes wandered between Bella and Edward suspiciously, and she intuitively felt that the latter must have something to do with the former, but she has never been a person with strong curiosity, so this doubt only swirled around in her heart before quietly It sank.Then, she heard Edward speak to her very quickly, with a difficult panting suppressed in that voice:

"What's your next class?"

"Trigonometric functions." She subconsciously replied at the same speed.

"Me too, let's go together."

After Edward finished speaking, he took the lead and left immediately. Laila took a last look at Bella standing at the door of the classroom. She bit her lower lip tightly, as if she was about to cry, and turned to follow Edward who was about to go away, thinking that someone would lead the way. Nice, so she doesn't have to stick a map to her nose.

After walking for a while, Edward's mood gradually eased. He cleared his throat and looked at Leila who was walking a meter away beside him.

"Um, I don't seem to have introduced myself yet, I'm Edward Cullen."

"My name is Lila," Lila paused, "Lila Klein."

"Laila," Edward repeated her name, with a faint and elegant smile reappearing on the corner of his mouth, "Didn't you go to the school cafeteria at noon today? I don't seem to see you."

Lyra was silent.

Edward was puzzled, did his question accidentally involve the privacy of the other party?

"Because I accidentally overslept." After a while, she replied blankly.

I was late for class on the first day for most of the day. This is actually a sad story.

Edward was shocked by this unexpected answer at first, and then, the arc of the corner of his mouth showed a tendency to deepen.

He thought Lyra looked lovely now.

However, as a well-bred man, he cannot blatantly laugh at a lady at such a time, absolutely not.

So he changed the subject thoughtfully, "By the way, are you still having that dream?"

"Well," Lyra nodded, "but it doesn't bother me anymore." Thanks to Edward's tip.

"That's good." Edward was relieved when he heard this.

After the topic was over, there was a long silence between the two.

In fact, Edward really wanted to continue talking to Laila, thinking about the topic was very anxious.It's a pity that counting this time, he and Laila have only met four times in total, and there is really nothing to talk about.And he found sadly that Laila didn't seem to have much interest in chatting (with him), because in every previous round of conversations, he actively asked questions and she passively responded, but now that he doesn't speak, she doesn't speak either. up...

In fact, he really misunderstood Laila.Lila's original character was like this, passive and slow, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with the long silence. On the contrary, she felt that such a quiet atmosphere was very comfortable...

So Edward was suffering alone...suffering...suddenly, he realized a problem.

Very serious problem.

"Did I...did I scare you?"

Just now, the moment that Isabella Swan walked out of the classroom, he was tempted by her blood, and he couldn't help showing his side as a hunter, and that face... that face...

Edward's heart was filled with strong uneasiness.

...is seen by Laila.

Laila thought about it.

To say that she wasn't scared—in fact, she wasn't scared at all, she was just a little surprised.However, when an ordinary human girl encounters such a situation, maybe she will be a little scared?

So she chose a relatively safe answer in her opinion: "It's okay."

Edward intuitively thought that Lila was hiding her true thoughts.

He wanted suddenly, desperately, to read Lyra's thoughts, and, as always, he failed.

Originally, he could grasp everyone's thoughts without any difficulty, and he was also used to hearing the thoughts of people around him at any time, until he met Lyra, and that Isabella Swan just now.

Yes, his mind reading skills didn't even work on Isabella Swann.

The deep sense of frustration, mixed with uneasiness, and the rapid surge of anger at Isabella Swan or at himself made him fall into a negative state that he couldn't extricate himself from.

Edward pursed his lips, suddenly quickened his pace, left Laila and walked away without looking back.

Huh?What's going on here?

Laila looked at Edward's back, confused.She thought about it carefully and made sure that she hadn't said anything excessive just now.

This person's personality is really cloudy...

The black-haired girl complained silently.

When Laila walked into the trigonometry class, there were still about two or three minutes before the bell rang.She walked to the podium first, and handed the sign-in paper to the teacher of this class, Mr. Vanner, and then quickly looked around the classroom, and found two empty seats - one next to Edward, in the middle next to the door One row, the other in the last row next to a girl with light brown medium-length hair.

She walked towards the back seat without hesitation.

Lila didn't notice Edward's movement of pulling away the seat beside her when she stepped off the podium, and she didn't even notice Edward's gloomy expression when she walked past Edward's desk without stopping.

"Excuse me, is there anyone here?"

She asked the light brown-haired girl, who shook her head, so she sat down on that seat with confidence.

"Are you a new transfer student? Hello, my name is Selma Mayne." The girl smiled at Laila and introduced herself politely. She looks very heroic, with gentle brown eyes friendly.

"Hello, I'm Lyla Klein."

Thelma is not a talkative person, so after this class, they didn't talk to each other except for the short conversation before the class.

Yamis is an intelligent race and likes to acquire various types of knowledge, so this course, which most girls hate, is relatively easy for Laila.

The bell rang soon after class, and Thelma said goodbye to her politely and left.

Laila picked things up slowly, and was the last one out of the classroom door.

"Laila."

Edward rushed out of the classroom as soon as the bell rang for the end of get out of class, so seeing him leaning outside the classroom door at this moment, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows—it was unexpected.

"Are you waiting for me?" she asked.

Edward looked at her with a complicated look for a while - she didn't understand why he had to show such an expression, and then said slowly:

"I think you're right, you really should... stay away from me."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for her to react, he quickly turned and left, as if something terrible was chasing him behind him.

what?

Laila was stunned by that sentence, and countless question marks bloomed in her mind.

What's going on with this sentence that seems to dislike her very much, and it's so inexplicable?

After standing still and thinking for a while, she thought of a possible answer: Could it be——Edward felt that he was not liked by her because she chose Thelma instead of the seat next to him in the class just now?

But—she thought dumbfounded—it was simply because she liked the back seat...

Lila's first day at Fox High School was spent in all kinds of oolongs.In order to prevent oversleeping again the next day, she went to bed just after nine o'clock in the evening, and then she dreamed of that familiar scene——

A small room, the light is very dim, there is only a boxy crimson wooden table in the room, there is a hemispherical groove in the center of the table, a hard-shell black book is suspended above the groove, A milky, hazy light radiates all around...
