Chapter 160 I Will Remember
Harry was also in the same distress as Schelling.
The day after the Yule Ball was announced, a curly-haired third-year Hufflepuff girl whom Harry had never spoken to before offered to invite Harry to the ball with her.Of course, as an orphan who grew up in a foster home with an aunt who hated him, Harry had never received any education about the opposite sex since he was a child, so he straightly rejected the girl.
The girl walked away, looking hurt.Throughout History of Magic class, Harry had to endure the sarcasm and jeers from Dean, Seamus and Ron at the girl.This happened several times again.
As the date of the Yule Ball approached day by day, Harry felt more and more pressure. In fact, he had someone in his heart that he wanted to invite, but he couldn't muster up the courage anyway.
Ron and he are almost brothers and sisters, and Ron has not invited a dance partner, but his pressure is not that great, he is not a warrior, and he does not have to participate in the dance.
At the same time, many changes have taken place in the castle.
Hogwarts students and teachers have shown a constant desire to impress Beauxbatons and Durmstrang's guests, and they seem determined to present the castle at its best this Christmas.
The school was festooned with lights, the marble staircase was covered with everlasting icicles, and the twelve Christmas trees customary in the auditorium were decorated with baubles of every kind, from From shiny holly berries to live golden owls who can't stop hooting.The armor was enchanted so that it would sing Christmas carols whenever anyone passed by.
It's hilarious to hear an empty helmet sing "Oh, come, you godly ones."The armor only knew half the words, and Filch, the keeper, had to yank Peeves out of the armor several times because Peeves was hiding in it, and whenever the armor couldn't sing, he made up some lyrics of his own, which were very crude and ugly.
That night, after finishing his magic research, Xie Lin sneaked into the kitchen to get some supper. To be honest, he hadn't had a good meal for a long time because of the invitation of his dance partner.The elves know that Schelling is the heir of Hufflepuff, and they are very enthusiastic about him, and they make a lot of exquisite delicacies for him to enjoy.
Before he even started, the kitchen door was suddenly opened, and an unexpected person appeared at the door.
It's Hermione.
"What a coincidence, Miss Granger." Sherin was a little embarrassed. After all, since the quarrel with Hermione, the two have never been alone again, although they can't be counted as alone now, don't you think elves don't exist?
Hermione's answer was beyond Xie Lin's expectations. She looked at Xie Lin firmly, and took a few deep breaths, "It's not a coincidence. I borrowed some kind of magic item, saw your whereabouts, and came here to find you."
Schelling knew that this so-called "magic prop" was Harry's Marauder's Map, which released a name-tracking magic called "Homonculous Charm", which could show the traces of everyone on the map.
The practicality of this prop is actually exaggerated by the original work.Because Hogwarts Castle is very huge, such a small map can only show every character within the map range as a black dot smaller than an ant-so, unless one is staring at a specific area or a specific character, it is impossible to supervise everyone's actions.
(Note: Homonculous comes from Pottermore's Marauder Maps. There is no official translation of this curse, and "Little Man Curse" is the author's private translation.)
That is to say, Hermione was staring at herself on the map, and she had to stare for a long time before she could successfully block him here.
Xie Lin's face remained calm, but he secretly wondered in his heart, what would happen if Hermione took so much trouble to find him?
This semester, he was almost insulated from Harry's trio. Except for the Potions class, Defense Against the Dark Arts class, and Hagrid's Fantastic Beasts class, he spent almost all his time on various plans and researches. It can be said that he had no intersection with Hermione.
However, out of politeness and demeanor, he still asked, "You're looking for me specifically? What's the matter?"
Hermione raised her chin slightly, with a trace of stubbornness and pride in her eyes, her hands hanging on the sides of her wizard robe, clenched tightly.This scene made Xie Lin a little dazed. He seemed to see the little lion in the library with his head held high and his face unwilling to admit defeat three years ago, the proud girl who said that she would beat herself in studies.
"Sherin Malfoy," her voice was a little hoarse, but her eyes glowed with unprecedented brilliance, "I came here just to tell you something—"
"I like you. I want to invite you to be my dance partner!"
what?
what?
What's happening here?
Rao Yixie Lin's state of mind had a great impact.Is he being confessed?
As for beauty tricks, conspiracy traps and so on?Schelling didn't even think about it, Harry didn't have such a personality, and it was even more impossible for Hermione to do such a thing with Hermione's strength.
Schelling quickly calmed down. He looked at the girl's much more mature face. Unknowingly, Hermione really changed a lot. He didn't know when it started. Hermione's signature front teeth suddenly shrunk, and her hair seemed fluffy, but it was obvious that she had undergone some simple combing, and it didn't have the messy feeling of the past.
Taking a closer look, Hermione is indeed much prettier, and the little girl next door in the past has gradually acquired a gentle and youthful style, which makes Xie Lin, who is used to beauties, feel amazed.
Astonishing astonishing, Xie Lin didn't feel moved.
Although the lady is beautiful, but the fate makes the paths of the two of them completely opposite.
Immediately, he thought of Meredith and the three girlfriends who had silently paid for him, and once again sternly warned himself not to cause love debts again, then corrected his expression and coughed lightly, "Miss Granger, thank you for your favor, but I'm sorry, I already have girlfriends, and there are more than one..."
He looked straight at Hermione's eyes that were beginning to fade, "You are a good girl, it's true, you are smart, cute, and sometimes a little arrogant, but your kind heart is enough to make up for everything, you have the loyalty to protect your friends, and you also have the courage to defend the truth and principles in your heart, but you can't force things about your feelings, and I can't lie about this anyway..."
"We... don't fit together."
Hermione smiled, though two clear tears rolled down her eyes.
"Xie Lin," she said with a smile, "please allow me to call you by your name for the last time. I am very grateful for your confession to me. You don't have to worry about anything, really, because before I came here, I thought about this result..." Her voice began to choke, "But...why am I still so sad!"
She sniffled, wiped her tears with the back of her hand, looked at Xie Lin with red and swollen eyes, and showed a reluctant smile: "It is enough to let you know my heart. I wish you victory in the Triwizard Tournament, and... and... I hope you must be happy... Maybe, one day you will forget me, maybe after graduation, we will never have a chance to meet again, but as long as you can remember—"
"There used to be a girl, in this place, at this moment, who once told you that she liked you, and that's enough."
Xie Lin felt pain in his heart for no reason, but his face was still expressionless. Sure enough, have I ever been moved by you?
Xie Lin sighed, and said solemnly: "Hermione, please allow me to call you by this name again, I will remember you forever... I also wish you well, you must find your own happiness..."
Hermione finally couldn't bear it anymore, her emotions seemed to have reached the limit, and she broke out into a heart-wrenching cry out of control, tears gushed out like water without a bank, she quickly covered her face, turned around, and He ran out of the kitchen as fast as he could.
