Harry Potter: Charlie and the Candy Factory

Chapter 217 After-dinner Activities

On the other side of the dining table, listening to the noise, Narcissa stopped mechanically cutting the food in her hands and slowly raised her head.

When she saw Charlie and Lain making a fuss, her eyes were startled at first, and then for some reason, the originally stiff expression on her face became softer, and a hint of Ruo Wu slowly appeared.

A Ruowu smile.

He didn't say anything more, but lowered his head again and began to quietly taste the dinner specially prepared by Charlie.

………………………………

Outside the factory, the wind was still as cold as a knife and the ice and snow soaked my bones, but I didn't pay attention to this anymore.

Because within the thick walls, both elves and wizards are enjoying the harmonious, lively and harmonious atmosphere with their whole heart.

Charlie, who was on the main seat, looked around at everything in front of him, taking in the expressions of everyone present.

For a moment, he felt a little confused. Everything was too beautiful, as if he was dreaming.

Charlie couldn't remember whether he had ever had such a sweet dream.

Family, friends, subordinates, everyone gathered around him, with smiles on their faces, tasting the feast he had prepared for them. There was no need to worry about the attitude of the Ministry of Magic, no need to worry about Voldemort's counterattack... some were just boundless.

The happiness is shared with everyone.

However, soon, he shook his head again, waking himself up from the trance just now. The rare soft color and longing for family affection in his eyes also disappeared, and turned back into the same clarity and calmness as usual.

Now is not the time. There may be a day when he can let go of the pressure in his heart, but it is definitely not now... The current warmth and happiness can be enjoyed, but he cannot be indulged in it.

Because I am not alone. Once I make some mistakes, those monsters and monsters that usually remain silent will definitely attack me in groups, tearing me, the elves, and this factory made with hard work into pieces.

All the fragments are eaten away.

"call……"

He picked up the wine glass on the table, and after exhaling, he drank all the remaining brandy in it.

The Adam's apple rolled up and down for a while, and the spicy wine instantly burned his throat with a hint of sweetness and surged downward. Only then did Charlie wake up completely.

With a familiar smile on his face, he continued to enjoy the rest of the dinner while chatting with Draco or Narcissa.

Soon, the dinner was over. Aberforth casually threw down the tableware in his hand, collapsed on his seat and burped comfortably.

After unbuttoning two buttons of his leather jacket and releasing his belly, he turned his head with enjoyment and looked at Charlie. He picked his teeth with the tip of the wand and asked lazily.

"What activities are you preparing for after dinner?"

After listening to Aberforth's words, the rest of the people at the main table also turned their attention to Charlie, waiting for the other party's answer.

After all, everyone present is not in a hurry. On this Christmas Eve, if they can play for a while after dinner, they will definitely have more fun.

"Um……"

After Charlie pondered for a moment, he raised his head and looked at Russell next to Lucius.

Russell immediately understood what his master meant, stood up hurriedly, and said

"The elves will be singing Christmas carols around the Christmas tree later. Maybe the guests can sit by the bonfire and listen to the elves singing while eating some desserts or something."

Draco's eyes suddenly lit up after listening to Russell's words. He seemed to be very interested in the proposal. Just when he was about to get up and agree, he seemed to remember something. He shrank his neck and turned his head carefully.

He looked at his father with a hopeful look on his face.

Fortunately, Lucius didn't have any objections. He was very happy now, especially after seeing the details that Charlie "deliberately" showed him, and his worries about the future tense were instantly thrown away.

Are you kidding me, Charlie Black, plus Dumbledore, plus countless elves - how can you, a lingering Voldemort, win!?

"Of course, I think it will take a long time. As a family, we can communicate more about our feelings together."

So, despite being the most withdrawn person, Lucius was the first to nod in response to Draco's prayers and Narcissa's surprised gaze.

Although she was a little surprised, Lucius's reaction was something Narcissa was happy to see.

Perhaps it was because she had experienced loss that she learned to cherish her. She loved her brother so much. Ever since she invited Charlie to Malfoy Manor last time, she had been thinking about him all the time.

Laien shrugged and expressed his indifferent attitude. Anyway, even if he went back, all he could do was stay in front of the TV and watch the Christmas specials of those TV programs.

Moreover, he has not forgotten the serious matter for which he was summoned by Charlie this time - to confirm the sale of "Melon Zhile" in the Muggle world.

Thinking of this, Lai En couldn't help but lick his lips, then quietly put his hand into the pocket of his down jacket. After rummaging around, he took out a piece of candy that had already been peeled and threw it into his mouth.

Immediately, a smile of enjoyment appeared on his face.

Seeing that no one had any opinions, Charlie naturally said nothing more.

With a snap of the fingers, the plates with nothing left on them disappeared one after another on the dining table.

Then another cleaning spell floated from his fingertips, like ripples on the water, spreading around him with him as the center.

After all the grease stains and food waste in the entire canteen were cleaned up, as if it was brand new, he nodded with satisfaction, stood up, and opened the door to the canteen.

As for the elves, when they heard Mr. Black say that he would take the guests to listen to them sing, they could no longer contain their excitement.

You know, although they have sung this song more than a hundred times, no matter how much they sing it, it is just for self-pleasure. In the past, there was still an audience of Mr. Black, but later, ever since Charlie got tired of listening to it, every time

Once you can avoid it, you will no longer have the chance to show off in front of others.

But now, faced with this hard-won opportunity, the elves naturally cannot let it go easily.

Wait for “Oh oh oh!

!

"After a burst of cheers, they couldn't wait to leave the place in a blink of an eye, and went deeper into the factory in advance to make preparations early.
