Chapter 426 Are You Cold?

"Thank you, thank you for saving me again..."

Bella hugged the man in front of her tightly. For the first time, she was redeemed in such a desperate situation.

"Oh, you don't have to thank me. I just don't like these rutting animals. After all, I can smell the smell of fried chicken on them from a long distance away. Add to that your screams, so I guessed what happened?"

Spreading his hands, Lin Jue pretended to be helpless. In fact, he had been following Bella all night. After all, he had lived in America for a period of time, so he naturally understood the nature of these European cities at night.

It is definitely dangerous for girls, especially beautiful girls.

In addition, the direction of the plot in the second dimension has changed. In order to avoid certain things that Lin Jue does not want to see, he still follows Bella.

As expected, all this happened so cleverly.

Seeing Bella slowly letting go of him and squatting down again, Lin Jue discovered the problem at a glance.

There were abrasions on her knees and ankles, and Bella seemed to be deliberately showing her weak side.

Lin Jue didn't care about this. He didn't care about being exposed or not. He just cut his finger with his fingernail, and a drop of blood shining with scarlet light floated in the air.

"Swallow it!"

"what?"

Bella, who seemed to have just reacted, looked up and saw Lin Jue's palms were clenched, as if holding something.

She subconsciously opened her mouth, and a cool and strange feeling flashed by. She didn't see clearly what had just happened. Bella looked at Lin Jue in confusion, but soon she was attracted by her own changes.

The abrasions on the knees were particularly obvious. The red, swollen and scraped wounds were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye. A tingling sensation made Bella cover her mouth.

"How can this be?"

Looking up in surprise, Bella discovered that Lin Jue, who had been standing in front of him, had disappeared.

Bella suddenly got up from the ground and looked around in panic, but there was still no sign of Lin Jue.

"Forest--"

On the rooftop of a western-style house, Lin Jue stood on the eaves, looking into the distance at a girl who was frantically looking for something on the street in the distance.

"The development of this plot seems to be getting more and more wrong. Shouldn't the scene of the hero saving the beauty be something that Edward's family should do?"

Lin Jue frowned slightly, and suddenly felt a little regretful about how he had taught Edward a lesson before.

Could it be that this guy is afraid to go out because of my scolding? He is the protagonist after all, he shouldn't be so cowardly...

Although he thought so in his heart, Lin Jue's eyes were always fixed on Bella's figure in the distant block. Soon, he saw a familiar figure driving away at high speed.

"Tsk... that's more like it!"

With a smile on his lips, Lin Jue's figure disappeared instantly.

……

Drop drop-

Bella was startled by the long and rapid sound of the horn. She noticed a car speeding behind her. The joy on her face just appeared, but when she saw the people in the car, her joy instantly sank.

The car door opened, and Edward rushed out of the car, and soon came to Bella. "It's so late, how can you run around on the street alone, have you forgotten what happened last night?"

Edward started to question her with a barrage of questions, and he said with some disappointment. However, Bella did not react at all. Instead, she changed the subject and asked him if he had seen Lin Jue.

"Lin? He's here too!"

Edward felt a sudden chill in his body and quickly turned his head to look around. His panic-stricken expression made Bella confirm a guess in her mind again.

"You and Lin know each other, and you two have some kind of relationship!"

Bella looked at Edward firmly. At this moment, she didn't care about the terrible things that might happen in the rumors. She just wanted to know who Lin Jue was.

"?"

Edward looked at the girl in front of him with confusion. He did not rush to answer Bella's question. Instead, he pulled her up and rushed towards the car. Although he didn't know what Lin Jue was doing here, his past experience made him want to escape from here immediately.

"Let me go, I want to find Lin!"

Seeing Edward's urgent actions in front of her, Bella began to struggle.

"You are crazy! How dare you go to him? Do you know what he is? What do you mean to him?"

Looking at Bella who was bewildered in front of him, Edward felt a pang of bitterness in his heart for some reason. Subconsciously, he roared loudly, but the moment he said it, he regretted it a little.

"Possessing strength and speed that ordinary people cannot possess, it will not age or feel hungry, is afraid of sunlight, and its body may be cold..."

Bella told him all the details she had observed in her mind. Although she was a little confused about some of the points, she still felt that it was the answer closest to her heart.

After she finished speaking, she noticed Edward's reaction and realized that she had most likely guessed the answer.

"You knew already……"

Edward looked at the girl in front of him with some complicated feelings. He couldn't tell what kind of feelings he had towards her, but when the girl revealed his identity, he still felt a little panicked.

"Ever since I touched your hand that night, I had some vague suspicions. Adding to that, your opinion of Lin and your actions to scare off those thugs, I felt that you were different from me. So I went back to look up relevant information. Did you know? I even saw you in a strange medieval photo!"

Bella had a complicated look on her face. She looked directly at the young man in front of her without fear. She didn't know if she revealed everything to him would let him suck her blood dry.

Edward let go of Bella's hand and looked up at the sky. Under the bright moonlight, his face was extremely pale as if there was no blood at all.

"In that case, are you afraid? Bella..."

"I'm not afraid because you saved me, more than once!"

"...Over the long years, I thought I had become indifferent to everything, but until I met you, my long-dormant desire for blood suddenly arose. Do you know how dangerous this is?"

With a scarlet light flashing in his eyes, Edward turned his head to look at the girl behind him, but found that she did not look afraid.

"You are unique! Bella, you are more unique than you think. Your blood is a deadly temptation to us. Don't you think you should stay away from us?"

"I don't think so! Without you, my fate would be extremely miserable!"

Bella shook her head firmly. She even walked forward and grabbed Edward's arm, feeling the shocking coldness and said softly, "Are you cold?"

Hearing these words, the scarlet in Edward's eyes completely disappeared.
