Chapter 378 Professor McGonagall’s efficiency and temporary dance partner

The eight o'clock bell rang on time, and Aaron looked at the entrance to the foyer. After all, the familiar face did not appear.

"Gaius." Professor McGonagall pulled a girl over quickly, "Just in time, this is Luna Lovegood of Ravenclaw, I managed to convince her. "

"Haha!" Aaron looked at the quirky-looking girl with blond hair reaching her waist, and couldn't help but have a wry smile on his face. "Professor, you are really efficient. You found it in less than three minutes."

"Now is not the time for joking." Professor McGonagall pushed Luna towards Aaron anxiously, "I'll go and tell Filch to open the door to the auditorium first, and you guys should hurry up and get familiar with it."

"Uh...Hello." Luna said calmly, "I am a third-year Ravenclaw and I don't like dancing, so you'd better be mentally prepared."

"Maybe it's me who should be sorry." Aaron sighed, "It's really embarrassing to let someone who doesn't like dancing accompany me to the dance."

"At least the result is good." Cedric couldn't help but tease, "Luna, you helped a lot this time."

"I didn't want to come originally, but Professor McGonagall said he would lend me his pet for a day."

Aaron was startled for a moment, then turned to look at Abe, who was squatting on the ground with an arrogant look on his face, and couldn't help but feel a little thump in his heart.

"No, this is absolutely not okay."

"There's nothing wrong with it." Professor McGonagall glared at Aaron, "I'm the vice-principal, and your dance partner didn't come in time. There's nothing you can do about it."

"But Professor, you know, Abe is no ordinary cat, he..."

“I believe you can see it well.

Is that right, Mr. Gaius? "Professor McGonagall gritted her teeth, her voice full of warning.

Aaron suddenly felt a lot of pressure and nodded blankly.

Crunch!

The oak door of the auditorium was opened. Fleur and Roger walked confidently and generously in front, followed closely by Krum and his dance partner. Cedric and Qiu Zhang lined up in the middle, and Harry and Parvati followed with some restraint. Behind them, and finally, were Aaron and Luna.

The walls of the auditorium were covered with silver frost, and the ceiling was a starry night sky, with countless silver stars falling like raindrops.

Hundreds of beautiful flower elves were flying around in the air, and several long tables were replaced by hundreds of lit lanterns.

As they entered, hundreds of people applauded in welcome.

The warriors brought their dance partners to the guest of honor, Dumbledore showed a good old man's smile, and several other judges also changed into formal clothes.

Barty Crouch didn't come, and in his place sat Percy Weasley.

Adrian looked at Aaron and then at Luna beside him. After a moment of confusion, he showed an approving look and gave a thumbs up.

The warriors and their dance partners sat down at the table of the guest of honor. There was no food on the plate, but there was a menu. When the name was read, the corresponding food would appear on the plate.

"It's very Christmassy." Luna hugged Abe and said with a smile, "It's so beautiful."

"After all, there are guests here." Aaron pointed out, "We have to make them feel at home."

"The Beauxbatons auditorium has a huge sparkling diamond statue." Fleur said contemptuously. "The food is also superb, there is a choir of woodland nymphs, and there are no mischievous ghosts."

"That's right, that's it, that's right." Davis said, slapping the table, as if everything Fleur said was right.

"This senior's concentration is really not that bad!" Aaron lowered his voice and said disdainfully.

"What did you say?"

"Nothing, just have a good meal!

The Christmas party is much grander than usual. "

"It's just too greasy."

"You don't have to eat it!" Aaron rolled his eyes.

"If Miss Delacour is dissatisfied with the food, you can contact my brother." Adrian smiled, "It is no exaggeration to say that he is proficient in various specialties from various countries, and I guarantee that you will not be disappointed. "

"Are you kidding me?"

"It's true." Harry interjected, "I was lucky enough to taste it once at the Weasley's two years ago. It was a delicious food that I will never forget."

"Harry." Aaron winked at him immediately and said seriously: "There are some things you shouldn't say nonsense!"

Harry reacted, smiled coquettishly, and silently lowered his head to eat.

"Don't be so modest, it's the truth," Percy said.

puff!

Aaron suddenly felt his heart twitching violently, and Percy's stab was really sour and spicy.

"Really?" Fleur looked at Aaron suspiciously and asked.

"Fake." Aaron said angrily, "I am also the heir of the family. Does my status allow me to study recipes?"

"It seems to be true."

Aaron chuckled, not wanting to explain.

It's your business to believe it or not, but it's his business to cook or not.

"Good performance." Adrian said coldly, "I really didn't expect you to find a second dance partner in such a short period of time."

Bang!

The fork in Aaron's hand fell on the plate, and he couldn't place it: "So...Hermione, you did this?"

Adrian shrugged, "You really shouldn't tell anyone who your dance partner is. How does it feel to be let out?"

"Where is she? You didn't do anything to her, did you?"

"Don't worry." Adrian pointed to the back room, "Miss Granger is dining inside.

I have to admit, you have a good taste, she is really beautiful. "

Aaron rolled his eyes, and just as he was about to stand up and go over to take a look, Adrian stopped him with a look, "Sit down!

I will explain what needs to be explained, now you have to eat well. "

"Sister, are you free? Does this have anything to do with you?"

Adrian did not answer directly, but asked with a smile: "Did you receive the Christmas gift I gave you?"

"Is this what you mean by an unforgettable dance?" Aaron said angrily, "I was let off the hook to deliberately embarrass me."

“You have a solution, I know you do.

It turns out you did. "

"Well..." Luna said sheepishly, "I was called here by Professor McGonagall."

"Is that so?" Adrian was a little surprised, "I thought you had a beautiful girl temporarily, but now it seems that the teachers at Hogwarts are pretty good."

"Minerva has always been reliable, otherwise she wouldn't be the Deputy Headmistress of Hogwarts," Dumbledore said.

"I disappoint you." Aaron snorted, "I have a dance partner, and I know that she didn't let me down on purpose, so I feel a lot better."

Adrian smiled and said nothing, but the familiar playfulness in his eyes made Aaron's heart beat wildly, and he felt uneasy.

The guests and hosts enjoyed the meal, but Aaron felt it was boring and absent-minded.

After dinner, Dumbledore stood up and with a wave of his wand, all the tables, chairs and cutlery flew to the wall, leaving a large open space in the middle.

He turned the open space in the middle into a stage, and placed a set of musical instruments on the right wall. The specially invited weird sisters gathered on the stage and picked up their own instruments to play.

As the beautiful music sounded, all the lanterns in the auditorium were extinguished, and only the dance floor in the middle was brightly lit.

"Let's go! It's time for us to dance."

Cedric and Qiu Zhang were the first to step onto the stage to lead the dance, followed closely by Fleur and Krum with their respective dance partners.

Harry pursed his lips nervously and was pulled onto the stage by Parvati, stumbling and jumping up.

"Uh... there's a little problem." Luna said with a blush, "I told you I'm not very good at dancing."

"It's okay, I'll take you with me." Aaron shrugged, "I'm quite confident in dancing."

Luna danced very stiffly at first and accidentally stepped on him a few times.

But Aaron has received professional training after all. Jeans takes communication and etiquette very seriously, so he put a lot of thought into training him.

Under his guidance, Luna quickly got into the rhythm and danced the waltz gracefully, no less than the other four groups of warriors.

Gradually many people joined in, and the warriors were no longer the center of the dance floor.

Neville and Ginny were in a group, Draco and Pansy were in a group, and Dumbledore and Maxim were in a group. Even Moody, who was half disabled, and Professor Sinistra danced awkwardly.

Adrian sat alone on the chair, watching his brother dance with interest.

Abe squatted beside her obediently, putting some snacks in his pocket from time to time.

Finally the organ played the last note and the song ended, and the auditorium burst into warm applause.

"Wuhu!" Luna shouted excitedly, gave Aaron a hug and said with a smile, "Dancing is not so boring."

"But it's meaningless." Aaron put down his right hand around Luna's waist and said politely: "The task of the warrior leading the dance is completed, we can go down."

At this time, the second song sounded, and the rhythm was much faster than the first song.

Luna still had some unfinished ideas, but there was nothing she could do if Aaron didn't want to, and no one else could take her.

"Why don't you dance a little longer?" Adrian teased, "The dance lasts for four hours, and you left in less than twenty minutes. Are you sorry?"

"Excuse me." Aaron said speechlessly, "I didn't want to dance in the first place, but I had to come because of the tradition of the Triwizard Tournament, and even the dance partner was temporarily found.

I have to meet with Hermione now, and the misunderstanding tonight must be explained. "

Adrian raised his eyebrows, "Are you complaining that I sent away your dance partner?"

"Yes." Aaron admitted frankly: "Even if you are my sister, you can't embarrass me like this!"

"I just wanted to see your resilience.

If you don't find a partner, Miss Granger will come out, but I'll find it boring. "

"But I didn't expect Professor McGonagall to interfere."

"You're right, pretty girl." Adrian smiled meaningfully, "But it's more interesting this way, because it means that a girl who has no interaction with Aaron before has joined in."

Aaron: ...
