The Fate of Harry Potter

Chapter 81 Keep your distance

The originally scattered snowflakes turned into a blizzard overnight. All outdoor classes and Quidditch training at Hogwarts were suspended. Everyone stayed indoors, sitting in groups around the fire to kill the sudden free time.

time.

"I heard that all Herbology classes have been cancelled." Blaise looked at the increasingly thick snow outside the window of the library. Originally, they were supposed to stay in the Slytherin lounge, but Draco was injured because of

He couldn't stand the strange looks others cast on him, so they stayed in the library to review their homework. "But Professor Sprout called Astoria over to help her, to those Mandelas who would yell

Grass wears socks and scarves, I don’t understand why a plant needs to wear these.”

"Can you please stop mentioning her?" Draco said impatiently. He flipped through several pages of the book in his hand. He couldn't concentrate on reading even a single word.

"Are you feeling guilty for avoiding talking to her so much?" Blaise said unceremoniously.

"What do I have to feel guilty about?" Draco felt that Blaise was a little unreasonable.

"I don't know, maybe it's for the pleasant chat by the lake, or maybe it's for the bottle of refreshment specially prepared for you, or maybe it's for those delicious snacks delivered every now and then, and the sidelines during every Quidditch training.

"Cheers and greetings," Blaise said in a somewhat sinister tone.

"Enough!" Draco growled excitedly. His voice attracted Ms. Pince's attention. Under her glare warning, Draco had to suppress his voice and continue, "I never asked for it.

What did she do for me?"

"But you never said no"

"Oh, are you feeling unfair for her?" Draco snorted coldly, "Speaking of which, Astoria is pretty good-looking. If you care about her so much, why don't you pursue her?"

"I was just about to say that since you enjoy her kindness to you so much, why not simply accept her wishes?" Blaise raised his eyebrows and whispered into Draco's ear, "Even if you want to pursue it, I am pursuing it.

The target will only be Nidia."

"How dare you?" Draco angrily grabbed Blaise's collar.

"What dare you? Who is she?" Blaise broke away from Draco's hand and continued to irritate Draco with words. "Since you are already enjoying Astoria's kindness to you.

, and why don’t others be allowed to pursue Nitya?”

"You" Although Draco was angry, he was still speechless by Blaise's question.

"Draco"

A soft voice sounded beside Draco and Blaise. Astoria looked nervously at the two people who were glaring at each other. She looked dusty, and there were still some scars on her long eyelashes and shoulders.

The snowflakes that had not melted after returning from the outdoors may be because she stayed outdoors for too long, and her face and lips were a little white.

"Oh look, your little girlfriend is here" Blaise smiled contemptuously.

"Shut up" said Draco.

"Please don't say that to Blaise. I came here to apologize because I caused these rumors to arise and caused trouble to both Draco and Nydia. I originally wanted to go to Nydia to apologize.

But I couldn't enter the Gryffindor lounge, so I came to you first." Astoria nervously bit her lips that had lost much color, "It's all because I'm too weak, I shouldn't have done it at all.

Went to the Duel Club."

Astoria began to sob as she spoke, which made her face look even more ugly, as if she would faint if she was even slightly stimulated. Draco and Blaise looked at each other, filled with anger that had been building up in their hearts.

At this moment, more than half of it has disappeared.

"It's not you who should apologize." Blaise sighed and turned his head to the side.

Draco looked at Blaise and then at Astoria, whose face was already full of tears. He sighed, suppressed the impatience in his heart and said, "Astoria, you don't need to say sorry. You should say

I should be the one who is sorry. If I had made it clear to you earlier, these things wouldn't have happened. I'm sorry."

Astoria stopped crying and looked at Draco with a hint of horror in her eyes.

"No, Draco, you misunderstood, I didn't want anything, I, I, I was just" Astoria was so nervous that she didn't know how to express her thoughts. It's not that she couldn't see Draco's feelings for Nettie.

She didn't want to destroy them, she just wanted to be good to Draco in her own way.

"You don't need to say anything anymore. Whether it's because of these rumors or other reasons, I think we should keep our distance from now on." Draco interrupted Astoria and said firmly.

Astoria couldn't say a word for a long time. After she tried hard to calm down her emotions, she said in despair, "I understand. I won't bother you again. Goodbye."

Astoria left the library at a trot, her figure swaying as if she might collapse at any moment.

"You should be satisfied now," Draco glanced at Blaise.

"What do you mean I should be satisfied? You said it as if you did it for me. Could it be that the person you really want to pursue is me?" Blaise returned to his usual irregular state, "You'd better give up this idea as soon as possible."

Not good at this"

"You" Draco was so angry that he wanted to punch Blaise.

"Oh, don't look at me like that. I know you definitely want to beat me now, but I'm doing this for your own good." Blaise said as he slowly distanced himself from Draco, "You

Why don't you think about it carefully? This matter is very strange."

"What's wrong?" Draco stared at Blaise with a dark face, his expression seemed to be a silent warning to Blaise, if you can't explain why, I will definitely beat you.

"I'm just saying that you lose your mind every time you encounter something related to Nydia." Blaise looked at Draco with a look of disgust, "Think about it carefully, whether you are chatting by the lake or giving

You gave you refreshment potions, snacks, and even watched you train. Astoria was careful to avoid other people and secretly made them. Especially the refreshment potions. In order not to attract other people's attention, she cooked several pots full of them and distributed them in the academy.

.So it is impossible for other people to know that you are close to Astoria, but the person spreading rumors can use this as a topic, so he must know these things."

"You mean this rumor might have been spread by Astoria herself?" Draco frowned uneasily.

"I don't think the possibility is very high. If she wants to spread these rumors, why did she spend so much effort to avoid suspicion? Just do these things in a big way. Then there is no need to spread any rumors, and everyone will think that you two are not related.

It's normal. But" Brace paused and continued, "if she really did this, then it can only be said that her scheming is really deep."

Draco remained silent. He kept recalling Astoria's usual behaviors in his mind, trying to find any flaws.

"The purpose of this matter is obviously to use verbal attacks to damage the relationship between you and Nitya. The person who wants you to quarrel most is definitely Pansy. Daphne's abnormal reaction is obviously problematic, but...

I'm not sure whether Storia is involved." Blaise analyzed.

"Pansy, I thought she had given up on making trouble. It seems I still need to have a good talk with her." Draco said with anger in his eyes.

"No, Draco."

Nidia walked out from behind a row of bookshelves. In fact, she had been here for a while. She had basically heard Blaise's analysis. Most of them were the same as what she thought, except for Astoria.

Part of Nidia thinks differently. She feels that Astoria is innocent, and can even be said to be one of the victims of this incident. Why she thinks so specifically can only be said to be her own intuition.

"Ninedia, when did you?" Damn it, how much did she hear? Draco looked at Ninetia nervously.

"I just came here not long ago, and I heard you saying that you were going to trouble Pansy." Seeing Draco's look as if he didn't want to know what he said earlier, Nydia pretended that she didn't hear it, "You also think that the rumor

Is it Pansy who spread the rumor? I don’t think you need to trouble her."

"Why?" Draco asked confused.

"Isn't she spreading these words just to make us angry? If you are really angry, wouldn't you let her purpose be achieved?" Nitya shrugged, as if she didn't care about the rumors anymore.

"Oh, my sister still has brains and courage, not like some petty person." Blaise looked at Draco with a snicker on his face.

Draco rolled his eyes at Blaise, then looked at Nydia and said, "But those people are talking about you."

"I don't care what they say," Nydia interrupted Draco, "No matter what others say, it will not damage our relationship."

"Our relationship" Draco felt a little hope rising in his heart.

"Yes, we will always be good friends," Nydia said firmly, while not forgetting to cast a firm look at Draco.

Draco's originally anticipated heart fell to the ground again. Now he didn't know whether he should be happy that Nydia said that their relationship would not change, or whether he should feel sad for the relationship that would not change.
