Chapter 427: Speculations about Lin Jue
In the sparse jungle, Edward carried Bella on his back, showing a speed that almost left an afterimage. In just a few breaths, the two of them covered a distance of several thousand meters.

When Bella finally reacted, they were already close to the top of the mountain.

Looking at everything in front of her with some disbelief, Bella looked at Edward in astonishment as he stood on the top of the mountain and looked up at the sky.

As if she had guessed something, she stood quietly by and waited.

When the first rays of morning glow passed through the clouds and shone into the woods, Edward looked at Bella, and the sunlight made his body reflect a crystal clear luster.

"So vampires are not afraid of sunlight, but they are worried that their skin will refract sunlight and look different from normal people..."

Bella muttered, finally understanding her.

She remembered Lin Jue's response, "Except for rainy days, other weather is fine." Yes, the sunlight cannot cause burning effects on them as rumored, so what reason do they have to be afraid of the sunlight?

"Edward, there is one thing I don't quite understand. I have had contact with Lin before, and his body is hot. Why is this different from yours?"

"hot?"

Edward was a little confused. He frowned and repeated again: "Are you sure he has a temperature?"

"Well, he is just like a normal human being..."

Bella's eyes were full of inquiry, but even Edward didn't know how to answer this question.

After thinking for a long time, Edward temporarily put aside his doubts. He looked at the girl who was staring at his chest and warned, "Bella, no matter how harmless Lin appears to be, he is not of the same species as you. You have to be careful. He is more terrifying than you can imagine!"

Hearing Edward's words, Bella frowned instantly: "Edward! I don't know why you are so prejudiced against Lin Jue. You know? Before you came, he saved me again, but he didn't even want to listen to my words of thanks and left. Do you think someone who really wants to hurt me would do such a thing!"

"He saved you tonight?"

Edward realized something, with a hint of anger on his face: "Are those bastards bothering you again? Damn it, I should have twisted their heads off that night!"

"No, I don't think you have to, because Lin has already..."

Bella didn't say the rest, but a trace of lingering fear flashed across her face. Apart from the bonus of Lin Jue's halo, she realized belatedly how bloody the method Lin Jue used to deal with that gangster was!
Looking at Edward, who seemed still very angry, Bella continued, "Edward, does Lin know that you are a vampire?"

"Know……"

"Then you know that he has never said anything bad about you in front of me or told me to be wary of you. Compared to him, you seem a little narrow-minded!"

"..."

Edward stared blankly at the girl in front of him. He always felt that he seemed to have completely lost something at this moment.

Ignoring Edward's reaction, Bella lowered her eyes slightly and then walked down the mountain on her own. Since she already understood everything, there was no need for her to stay alone with Edward in this deserted forest.

……

Following behind Bella, Edward's eyes were a little dazed, and he kept repeating Bella's previous words in his mind. Finally, he couldn't help but add a few words.

"Bella, the reason why I asked you to beware of Lin is not because I have any prejudice against him. You know? There is a huge gap between vampires. Those ancient vampires have much stronger power than young vampires, and Lin belongs to that category. They are moody and difficult to figure out their minds. Not only humans are afraid of them, even normal vampires are afraid of them. I want you to understand this!" Looking at Bella who was still walking forward without looking back, a trace of bitterness flashed across Edward's face.

……

Returning to school again, Bella's heart was completely different from before. She looked at the students who were laughing and talking happily, and couldn't help but sighed secretly: "I didn't expect that in this seemingly normal world, there are some extraordinary lives!"

Vampires actually live among us.

While Bella was thinking, she walked into the classroom, and her eyes almost subconsciously met Lin Jue's as he looked up at her.

Looking at the faint smile on Lin Jue's face, compared to Edward's previous "hysteria", Bella always felt warm in her heart.

Noticing the many female students sitting next to Lin Jue, Bella plucked up the courage to find a seat nearby and sat down.

Her eyes were on the blackboard, but her ears were perked up, listening quietly to the conversation between the girls and Lin Jue.

Most of the time, it was the girls who were teasing, but Lin Jue took it calmly, which made Bella feel a little secretly happy.

As time passed, Bella soon found an opportunity to sit next to Lin Jue again.

"What? You and Edward had a falling out?"

"you know!"

Bella was shocked and inexplicably flustered. She didn't expect Lin Jue's first sentence to be this.

Soon, she reacted and explained: "I am very grateful for his help before, but he and I are just friends..."

"..."

Lin Jue's face darkened, and he glanced at Edward who was pretending not to care about the place in the distance. He originally thought that the relationship between Bella and Edward had made some progress, but he didn't expect this to be the result.

"Lin, I'm actually not afraid of you, nor am I afraid that you will hurt me. I hope you know this!"

Bella stared into Lin Jue's eyes. For the first time, she felt that she had mustered up great courage: "In fact, I already liked you when you helped me out for the first time. I don't care whether you like me or not, but I hope you won't deliberately distance yourself from me for other reasons!"

"..."

Lin Jue was stunned. To be honest, he had never expected this result. He had tried his best to stay away from the plot, but he never expected that the reality would develop far beyond his expectations.

That's a mixed-race...

Lin Jue pretended to be calm, but he was roaring wildly in his heart. He felt that Bella and Edward's child must have great potential. After all, the surprise Eve brought to Lin Jue had far exceeded his expectations.

However, it seems that there is a second descendant of humans and vampires in this world, but that guy... Lin Jue is not very interested.

Looking at the girl in front of him with hope in her eyes, and then looking at Edward in the distance who was lowering his head and seemed a little autistic, Lin Jue was completely speechless!
