Didn't this girl know Claudia's identity? Didn't she know about her brother and her family…
"Pfft…" Someone, unable to hold it in, let out a short, suppressed laugh.
Claudia's delicate face instantly froze.
Her carefully drawn eyebrows arched high, and the playful look in her beautiful green eyes was replaced by icy indignation.
She clearly had some reservations; she still needed to give Lynette her due, at most engaging in a verbal spar.
However, what made Serie's brow slightly furrow was—
"Heh…" An extremely faint sneer, as if squeezed through gritted teeth, carried a dangerous and excited flavor of being completely ignited.
Following that was the rustling sound of fabric, and a highly palpable, cool cedar scent suddenly approached, bringing with it a strong sense of oppression.
Claudia actually, brazenly, sat down in the empty seat next to her, which originally belonged to Yuki!
What was she trying to do?!
Serie's heart skipped a beat, and her body instantly tensed.
Claudia was definitely not one to swallow her anger.
Her abnormal act of sitting down like this… definitely had ill intentions.
Compared to Serie's apprehension, the other students' mouths hung open in shock, wide enough to fit an egg.
Claudia… was she admitting she was "intellectually disabled"?
They stared at Claudia's seated back, then incredulously glanced at Serie's calm profile, as if they had seen a ghost.
What was the background of that girl?
Those words just now were no different from publicly slapping Claudia hard!
According to past situations, either the petite girl would be verbally abused until she couldn't lift her head, or…
But Claudia not only didn't make a move? She didn't even utter a single sharp retort?
If it weren't for the fact that only a few minutes ago, they had personally witnessed how Claudia intimidated the other two new students, they would almost believe that the person quietly sitting down before them was one of Claudia's gentle twin sisters!
What exactly…
Was going on?
After a while, Yuki returned.
The seat next to Serie was originally hers, but she seemed completely unaware of the subtle atmosphere around them.
A glimmer of hope had just risen in Serie's heart—
"Hmm?" Yuki looked at Claudia sitting in her seat, tilting her head in confusion, "Claudia? Why are you sitting in my seat? Didn't Doctor Lynette tell you not to get close to Serie?"
Yes! That's it! Tell her her consequences! Then reclaim your seat!
But before Serie could even be happy for half a second, thinking this plague would be sent away, Claudia didn't even lift an eyelid, lazily saying:
"Yuki… go play somewhere else, okay?"
"Oh! Okay!" Yuki's small bit of confusion instantly vanished. She responded without hesitation and happily went to find another empty seat, her twin pigtails swinging cheerfully behind her head.
Serie: "…"
Yuki, why are you so obedient?!
Serie felt a wave of depression as she heard Teacher Arabella lightly tap the podium, announcing the start of the lecture.
She could only continue to grit her teeth and sit with Claudia.
However, the absence of sight amplified her other senses infinitely.
To her left, it felt as if a venomous snake was lurking.
There was no physical touch, yet it was more impossible to ignore than any contact.
Serie could clearly feel that snake-like gaze fixed on her profile.
No… sis… what exactly are you trying to do?
