Chapter 42: Conversation on the Wall
With long black hair and pupils, he stood quietly on one side of the hall, like a hollow valley orchid. Compared with those aristocratic girls who like to dress brightly, Lorain Hill's clothes are more simple and low-key, not so eye-catching, but after watching for a long time, there is another charm, a soft and inclusive temperament is slowly revealed, which makes people want to indulge in it, and the anxious heart is slowly relieved.
After hearing the griffin's eldest son's inquiry, Lorain Hill was a little surprised, because she had been standing in the corner, although the team was head to tail, but in fact there was still some distance apart, but I didn't expect the senior to inadvertently step a little bigger, so close.
"My words, there is no special problem, the senior can continue to explain." She said softly, and at this time, the other people in the hall also turned their eyes, and many people realized that there was such a peerless girl at the back of the team.
"Who's that girl?"
"Haven't seen it before."
"It's Loraine from our class." A classmate said proudly.
"Is she Oriental? It looks like it should be. ”
"Wow, that's beautiful." A girl said enviously.
Jaylane's first accosting, although in the name of an introduction, unfortunately did not succeed. But he is not in a hurry, this is just the beginning of school, there are still many opportunities in the future, the important thing is to leave a good image first. Besides, he was the future Duke of Griffon, and he still had a competitive advantage and confidence compared to the other men in the school.
"It's nothing, I'm also from the freshman period, if there's anything you want to know, just ask me."
Although he is a handsome guy in the academy, Jaylene has always been sought after by other girls, and when it is his turn to pursue girls, he doesn't know what to say.
Thinking about the past, none of the ladies of those big aristocratic families were full of social points, and they didn't have to worry about whether they had topics or anything like that, as if everything was so natural, and now, Jaylene felt like a fish on the shore, and he could only open his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
Shouldn't this girl readily agree, ask me, get acquainted with each other, and then find time to go to dinner somewhere today? This is a little different from what he expected, the invincible appearance and family background of the past seem to hit the air, and there is no echo.
The scene was a little embarrassing for a few seconds, and the younger brothers who were quite faceless in the back began to take over and introduce some of the traditions and activities of the academy, which drew most people's attention.
In the subsequent introduction and tour, Jaylan's mind was actually a little out of this, but he still did not leave halfway, which can be regarded as a general introduction to some of the school's facilities and style traditions.
"We also have two badges of honor to recognize outstanding students, one of which is the 'Fearless' micro-badge. To earn this badge, you need to cross the Blue Stream River in heavy armor, and the examiners will constantly attack it along the way, while the challenger needs to advance through the fast-flowing river, fend off all kinds of attacks, and reach the opposite bank. ”
"Can't you take a boat halfway?"
"Yes, you need to hold your breath to move forward at the bottom of the river, and there is a lot of silt in it."
"Is it so hard? I've heard that the Blue Creek River is very deep, and the bottom of the water is even darker. ”
"It's because it's so difficult that this kind of glory is precious."
Some of the students whispered below, and then as they finished their tour of the Pier Academy, the new students dispersed and only needed to gather at the scheduled time to return home.
The four of them in the dormitory were also separated, Alena took Nia to the river to fish, and Lotice was invited by a group of young ladies to invite Lorain Hill, but she wanted to walk by herself, so she didn't go.
Walking alone on the walls of the fortress, stroking the somewhat weathered and cracked stone walls, Lorain Hill had been rare quiet for a while. At this moment, another figure came up from the side of the city wall.
After taking off his armor, Jaylane walked over in a black uniform. Compared with the dazzling figure in the morning, he is closer to ordinary people now.
Although it is a bit of a loss of face to take the initiative to pursue, it should not be counted to understand each other and chat. With this in mind, after he returned to the dormitory, he took a shower, changed into his regular clothes, and immediately rushed over, as for the location of Loren Hill, naturally there were younger brothers to help follow.
Stepping on the stone staircase, as he climbed the city wall, the river breeze on the shore gradually increased, blowing the still wet blonde hair, Jaylane saw the figure of the black hair, and his mood became as relaxed and comfortable as the breeze on the shore.
"Hello, I'm Jaylan, can I ask your name?"
Since I don't know much about the means of pursuit, then I will listen to my heart, thinking like this, Jaylane spoke naturally, not as pompous as in the morning.
"Hello, my name is Loraine." Looking back at this senior, Lorain Hill didn't have any bad feelings, and naturally responded.
"I'm sorry, this ....... It may seem strange to talk to you out of the blue, but I do want to get to know you. ”
The first time he said the word 'sorry', Jaylana felt a little rusty, but for some reason there was a sense of relief, as if there was no shame in saying these two words in front of this girl.
"That's it...... Is there anything you want to ask me? ”
Looking at the young man who was as brave as a lion in the morning, but at this time he was a little nervous, and a wonderful feeling appeared in the bottom of Lorain Hill's heart.
"Actually, the first time I saw you was a few days ago, that is, on the afternoon of the day I entered school......"
....
....
"So, did the seniors get interested in it? Giggle......" Lorain Hill covered his mouth and smiled.
"This ......" Jaylan, who was directly said to be the center, felt ashamed and a little at a loss.
"However, although the senior is excellent in all aspects, I'm sorry, I can't promise you."
Loren Hill doesn't intend to hang this senior, if you want to refuse, you must make it clear from the beginning, don't waste other people's time and feelings.
"Is it because we don't know each other well, or am I not good enough?" Hearing Loren Hill's answer, Jaylene asked anxiously. Originally, it was just an ethereal affection and liking, but after talking to this girl, it made him even more tempted. This girl is unique, and the charm that radiates from the inside out simply makes him unable to extricate himself.
"No, the seniors are already very good, and it's not because of feelings."
"It's just that I don't have the idea of getting married to someone of the opposite sex, and if possible, I'll probably live my life alone."
"But in this way, don't you feel lonely?" Jaylene looked at Lorain Hill's back, still a little puzzled.
"Perhaps, but love is not the whole of life."
Lorain Hill lifted his long wind-blown hair and watched the long river rolling under the city walls, the waves crashing on the shore, and the river flowed endlessly.
"People will experience many things in their lives, family, friendship, love, hobbies, dreams that want to eat, dreams that want to reach, promises that want to respond, unknowns that want to explore, scenery that they want to see, things they want to change, and so on."
"I like some of them more, so I don't want to be tied down emotionally."
Lorain Hill spoke her thoughts, her long, supple hair fluttering gently in the river breeze.
