Chapter 386 Dance Partner

385 dance partner

Ever since Hermione appeared, she has grabbed the attention of most people - especially the girls present.

Except for a few insiders, the girls were all staring at him with undisguised suspicion.

"Hello, Cho!" Hermione said as she passed by Harry and Harry, but she did not say hello to Harry. Instead, she stared at him with a haughty look.

Harry couldn't say a word. He heard Qiu beside him whispering to himself: "Look, she's sizing you up again, but luckily she doesn't seem to like you."

At this time, Ron arrived belatedly with Luna - Harry could guess at a glance why Ron showed up so late, because Luna's dress was really special, and the long dress she wore looked like it was made of plastic.

She is done, and she is wearing unique bottle stopper earrings on her ears.

Ron probably struggled for a long time after seeing Luna's appearance, and Harry somewhat admired his courage.

"Haven't you found Hermione yet?"

Ron shouted as he walked over. He didn't recognize the other dance partner with his back turned at all: "Don't tell me that you only care about romance. Now we have an important sense of mission, and you don't either."

Would you like to see the house elves rebel on the spot?"

"What rebellion?"

Hermione turned back and asked in an impatient tone: "I said, what on earth are you planning for me? Are you unwilling to let me go on such a beautiful day like today?"

Ron was also stunned when he saw Hermione's appearance.

Luna greeted her openly: "Hello, Hermione, you look so beautiful today."

"I know." Hermione said with a smile, showing her neat teeth and sparkling eyes.

"But some people never seem to notice this." She quickly continued, her eyes especially on Harry and Ron twice, and she emphasized her tone again.

"some people."

Ron looked at Harry dumbfounded. Harry had lowered his head. He didn't want Qiu to say anything shocking again.

In the end, it was the kind-hearted Cedric who broke the awkward atmosphere. He had already noticed that something was not right between the three young friends - mainly because Hermione suppressed the other two young men with her own strength and did not do anything.

Don't fall behind.

"Well, Harry, have you finished the golden egg? That magic circle is really complicated, isn't it?"

"Not yet." Harry muttered, and then he couldn't help but curiously asked in a low voice: "What on earth is going on?"

Cedric must have understood what Harry wanted to ask.

He turned his head and glanced at Hermione, who was chatting with Qiu and Luna. Ron also walked over with his head turned, obviously intending to ask clearly.

"You should know about Hermione rejecting Krum, right?"

Harry knew, but this was the first time Ron had heard of it.

"Don't shout in a hurry." Harry quickly covered Ron's mouth and motioned for Cedric to continue.

"At that time, Hermione and I were looking up information in the library. As you know, it was about the automatic casting wand. Then I noticed Krum coming over first. I thought he was here to find me. After all, we still had

Even though we knew each other, I didn't expect that he actually invited Hermione to be his dance partner."

"I didn't know that you didn't know that Krum actually had a crush on Hermione. In fact, I didn't expect that Krum had never asked about Hermione before. He hid it really deeply.

.Anyway, Hermione almost rejected Krum on the spot - I say this because she was also frightened by the sudden invitation at the time, but she still refused it as soon as she reacted.

.”

"You have no idea how embarrassing the scene was."

When he said this, Cedric still had a scared expression on his face.

"It's not just us, there are other students in the library - oh, by the way, Qiu was also there at that time, she and her roommates were all shocked. So - I really don't know what I thought at the time

- So I said to Krum - I'm sorry, you invited her a little late, because she agreed to be my dance partner first."

"Merlin." Harry stared at Cedric in disbelief, and Ron stared at him with a "Are you sick?" look.

"I know." Cedric sighed, but he didn't feel melancholy for long before saying, "But thinking about it carefully, it seems that I got a bargain, because I later found out that I almost didn't have a dance partner, but the warrior is

I need to lead the dance at the opening. And luckily Hermione didn't refuse me, otherwise it would have been embarrassing - Merlin's beard!"

This was a curse word that had never come out of Cedric's mouth.

I don't know when the entire hall became silent. Harry and Ron saw that the three girls who were chatting were also looking behind them in shock. They followed these gazes and looked back in confusion.

.

Two figures were walking down the stairs.

Professor Angela was as beautiful as ever. She wore a long dress as white as snowflakes, and her whole body exuded a holy light. Those who didn't know it thought she jumped out of the portrait, or was an elf floating down from the moon.

, the whole person was enveloped in the beautiful scenery that could be seen clearly but could not be described.

If that were all, it wouldn't have kept the hall silent for so long. After all, these people had already seen Professor Angela's extraordinary abilities.

The reason why this happened was because she was holding another person's arm.

Probably no one would recognize him at first sight, maybe because his long and messy hair suddenly became neatly tied up behind his head, or maybe because the other person finally no longer wore the same black witch robe.

, but put on a distinctive dark red velvet dress. Her resolute face was exposed generously in front of everyone, and her eyes seemed to be full of insouciance that would never go away, but they also looked particularly sharp.

Harry's eyes swung violently for a while, and after his mind went blank for a long time, he finally recognized who this person was.

"Bang bang bang bang~"

"Bang bang bang bang~"

Astonishingly, a melody sounded from Fred's mouth at the other end of the hall, and George immediately followed it - everyone could tell that it was a wedding march, and it really fit the scene in front of them.

"Shut up."

Toby glanced over and the two of them were so frightened that they immediately dared not speak.

"Thank you everyone." Angela acted less serious. She happily rolled up her skirt, responded to the joking tone, and smiled happily.

This broke the silence in the foyer, and exclamations could be heard.

"So beautiful but so handsome. Really handsome."

"Why don't professors dress like this normally?"

"I guess I'm worried that we won't be interested in listening to the class. Why didn't I find out earlier? Why?"

One girl covered her face and burst into tears.

Amidst such noise, Toby's brows furrowed slightly, but this way he fascinated more people.

"Don't be unhappy." Angela continued to maintain the smile on her lips. She squeezed out a voice from between her teeth and said: "Don't look like you are trying to scare people all day long. You are not in class now, so you can't occasionally

Want to relax?"

Toby glanced sideways at her, raised an arm, and used the palm of his hand to undo the first button under his neck.

"Choose a dress like this for me. I don't see that you intend to make me relax."

Angela turned around calmly, raised her two hands, secretly pushed Toby's arm off with force, then gritted her teeth and fastened the button again.

"I'm warning you, this is my first time attending a dance. If you continue to mess with me, I will show you what a real headache is."

Toby leaned back slightly and asked, "Is it more of a headache for me than losing your scepter?"

Angela pressed forward step by step, leaning forward slightly, her silver eyes met Toby's, almost nose to nose.

"You can try it."

Toby decided not to continue struggling. He pressed Angela's shoulders and pushed her back and said, "Okay, but why hasn't the dance started yet? Where's Al? Why doesn't he come with us?"

"It still has something to do." Angela said mysteriously.

As if to verify her idea, the door to the auditorium and the door to the castle were opened at the same time.

Toby did not look at the decorations in the auditorium. He immediately saw Lockhart leading the Durmstrang students in.

Lockhart also saw Toby. The smile on his face froze and his blue eyes were as big as light bulbs.

The students spontaneously made way for Toby, who was approaching, and Angela held his arm and walked together contentedly.

"Why don't you print this picture in those books of yours?"

Lockhart said as soon as he opened his mouth.

"What?" Toby didn't understand.

Lockhart said happily: "Fortunately you didn't do this, otherwise the first author would have been handed over to someone else - just pretend that I didn't say anything."

Toby was very dissatisfied with Lockhart's secretiveness, which always gave him the suspicion that Grindelwald had an opportunity to take advantage of him.

However, as the vice principal, he also has his own responsibilities to bear.

"Please come here, warriors," he said.

After the four pairs of dance partners stood by the door, Toby arranged for the other students to go into the auditorium and sit down first, and then the warriors entered - this is one of the important parts of the dance, they must

Just show up once in front of everyone.

But here's the problem.

As the vice principal, Toby needs to take the lead, and Angela holds his arm and refuses to let go.

When Toby motioned to the warriors and dance partners behind him to follow him into the auditorium, Al suddenly jumped out of nowhere - he put on that very neat tuxedo and shook his short tail at Toby.

, the only difference is that he wears an extra pair of garlands on his head, and there are a lot of fairy lights flying around him, constantly sprinkling bright embellishments on the carpet, and throwing them from the flower basket with Al

petals intertwined.

"What are you doing?"

"ah?"

"What do you mean, let me leave it alone? What are you doing at this time?"

"ah!"

"Angela? Is Angela involved in this matter? You already knew about it?"

"Why are you talking so much? Shut up, look ahead, and be honest."

Madame Maxime was sitting in the seat of the guest of honor. She glanced at the beautiful couple walking in front. The appearance of Toby and Angela covered everyone's presence. Their vying eyes were greater than those of the four warriors put together.

More to come.

"What is this?" she said with a hint of dissatisfaction: "Is it a wedding held just for them? Are they followed by flower girls?"

"I didn't expect such a surprise." Principal McGonagall's eyes were full of joy: "Weren't you curious before why Angela refused to stay in Beauxbatons? Now we know, her vision has always been

Not bad - at least better than you, Olim."

Madame Maxime snorted coldly, but she still didn't say anything to refute.

After arriving in front of the guest of honor, Toby stared at Mag with a strange look in his eyes, which was very unusual.

"Do you want to lead the dance?" Mag asked interestedly.

"Not interested." Toby said, ignoring Angela who was poking him hard: "Hurry up and start the dinner, principal, I'm going to be choked out of breath."

"I don't know what's wrong." Mrs. Maxim said angrily, but Toby happened to hear her.

In order to avoid more serious disputes, Mag promptly arranged for the warriors to sit down, and also deliberately placed Toby far away from Maxim.

The ordering method tonight is a bit unique. Everyone can order just by saying the name of the dish on the menu. After Principal McGonagall's demonstration, others followed suit.

"Beef rib, berry tart, strawberry pudding, another one - why are you hitting me again?"

Toby put down the menu in surprise and turned to look at Angela, who was staring angrily at him.

"Are you planning to dance after eating so much?" Angela snatched away his menu and said, "Don't tell me that you are planning to find an excuse to feel sleepy after eating and plan to slip away at any time."

"How could I do this?" Toby said, avoiding Angela's eyes, with a very unnatural expression.

Al jumped up and snatched Toby's pudding away, then whispered into Angela's ear.

"What did you say?"

Angela looked shocked: "Toby has never been to a ball, never danced -"

"Keep your voice down!" Toby quickly covered Angela's mouth, and glared at Al fiercely: "If you talk nonsense again, I will confiscate all your pocket money - what I just said

I didn’t settle the score with you, who asked you to be a flower girl?”

Al appeared just as shocked as Angela.

"Do you really think I don't know what a wedding is like?" Toby grabbed Al and rubbed his little head hard, then grabbed his cheeks and pulled hard on both sides, and then bounced back with a "biu" sound.

.

"Tell me, who came up with this idea? Do you really think I'm so easy to fool?"

"Hahaha." Professor Slughorn, who was sitting on the other side, seemed to be in a good mood. This was not easy, because Dumbledore's threat to him had made him in a bad state recently, until he saw his beloved today.

students become better.

"Talk about it carefully, I don't think I've seen you dance with anyone, which is really strange. After all, you have attended so many Slug Club dances, but you don't have a female partner. But there is another person who is dancing with you.

You are just as pitiful - oh no, it is heartbreaking, I remember Severus also has no female companion - "

"He totally deserves it," Toby said sarcastically: "Who would like an old bat with greasy hair?"

"Oh, don't let him hear this." Slughorn shook his head and said, "Otherwise the two of you will definitely have conflicts again - by the way, when do you plan to see him, or is it between you?

Are the conflicts really irreconcilable? Maybe I can help."

"Meet him?" Toby asked in confusion; "Why meet him? The prerequisite is to find him."

"do not you know?"

Slughorn looked at Toby in surprise.

"Severus has agreed to be the owner of Fred and George's first shop. Has he really never mentioned this to you?"
