Chapter 578 A Small Conflict At The Christmas Banquet

It was dark at night, and the ancient Hogwarts Castle looked solemn and mysterious in the moonlight.

Harry had just returned to the common room. He held the wand in his hand and looked a little tired. He gently opened the door to the dormitory and took a step inside. Suddenly, a sharp pain split open his head like lightning.

"ah!"

Harry screamed and held his head tightly with both hands. The whole world seemed to be shattered in an instant.

He didn't know where he was, whether he was standing or lying down, and even his name became blurry.

At this moment, a burst of crazy laughter echoed in his ears, as if coming from a distant hell.

This voice is so familiar and so creepy. Harry felt as if he was being pulled by the laughter and falling into an endless dark vortex.

He had not been so happy for a long time... elated, ecstatic, elated... these words flashed through his mind like fragments.

Something great and good had happened... The thought was so strong that Harry's breathing became rapid.

Harry lay panting on the ground, staring at the plaster reliefs on the ceiling, which seemed to mock his helplessness.

The scar on his forehead pulsed horribly, like a devil's mark, constantly reminding him of those unbearable memories.

"Two ninety-seven" At the same time, in the master bedroom of the tower, Levin was sitting quietly by the bed, and his eyes inadvertently fell on Xiaona next to him.

The girl was concentrating on playing with a mistletoe. The green leaves were swaying gently on her fingertips, as if she was trying to find whether there were oyster hooks inside.

Levin looked at her, his throat feeling itchy unconsciously.

He tried hard not to look at Luna's pale pink lips, but they attracted his eyes like magic.

Finally, Levin couldn't help but ask: "Luna, what gift do you want for Christmas?"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he regretted them.

Luna's light silver eyes raised slightly after hearing these words and looked at him. There was an emotion he couldn't understand flashing in those eyes, which seemed to be a little expectant and a little confused.

Ever since the first class of the Defense Against the Dark Arts cram school, Luna's state has been a bit off. She became taciturn and had no energy all day long. Moreover, she often peeks at herself.

It seems that the way she and several girls kissed each other that day were indeed too damaging to Luna, an innocent little girl.

Therefore, until now, he finally couldn't hold it in any longer and began to test the girl's reaction.

However, Luna's feedback was even more extreme than expected, as her ethereal voice sounded like a song: "I'll stay here tonight.

"What...what?" Levin was startled by the girl's request. Does she know what this means?

However, looking at Luna's serious eyes and innocent and ignorant appearance, there was an indescribable feeling in my heart.

Levin felt that he really couldn't refuse - mainly because he couldn't bear to refuse.

He took a deep breath and nodded.

Now that Luna made the request personally, Guowen felt that he could no longer evade perfunctorily.

Levin was thinking in his mind that Luna had been with him for a long time, and he called her "boyfriend" affectionately. Now that she had just passed the legal age, it would be better to be more free and easy and directly satisfy her. Wishes.

As for Zhang Qiu, Hermione, Cirila and the others...

At this moment, Luna saw through his mind and said softly: "Levin, you don't need to let Zhang Qiu and Hermione talk about this.

Luna's penetrating gaze made Levin feel that ordinary [Occlumency] had never been an obstacle to her.

Her talent as a psion is indeed great. Even Levin himself can easily be seen through accidentally if he doesn't cover it up deliberately.

To be honest, this was the first time Levin saw the girl in front of him showing such an expectant expression, and he couldn't help but blame himself. His desire for a bed seemed to be too much for this innocent girl.

Perhaps sensing his emotional changes, Luna's eyes softened. She looked at Levin, smiled, and said softly: "You don't understand anything, Levin Green."

As she spoke, she glanced at the mistletoe in her hand, then leaned over.

Levin only felt his lips soften, and Luna had already pinched his lips that were tight because of guilt.

He was stunned for a moment, then reacted and reached out to grab her shoulders.

Luna was trembling slightly in his arms, she had been waiting for this moment for a long time.

Seeing the undefended look on the other side, Levin's heart warmed up. He activated his skills and, like magic, removed her barriers with ease, leaving a fair and tender little person nestled in English's arms.

Early the next morning, the sun shone through the window in the bedroom, and Luna and Levin had just completed a morning exercise.

Luna panted lightly, as if she had experienced a life and death struggle, and looked like she was about to die, lying lazily in Cai Wen's arms.

Her physical strength has obviously not fully recovered yet, and this strenuous exercise is indeed a bit too much for her.

Levin looked at her flushed face and asked with concern: "How do you feel? Do you want to rest for a while?"

Luna nodded slightly and suddenly said: "Let's not go back."

"What?"

Levin was about to make her a cup of milk tea to replenish her strength, but he couldn't help but be startled when he heard her words.

The girl spoke strangely, and it wasn't the first time that he couldn't understand what she meant.

Luna tried her best to stand up slightly, and obediently let Levin feed her a sip of milk tea.

The sweetness of the milk tea filled her mouth, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face. Then continued: "Levin, I think we're going to stay in this bedroom this semester.

Levin put the tea cup on the bedside table, looked at her serious eyes, and couldn't help but shake his head.

"What are you talking about? Even if you get the privilege of being exempted from schoolwork, we will stay here every day. At least at the end of the semester, we have to go back and take the exam. I have to take the O.W.Ls exam this year, and you have to go back to class."

"No," Luna shook her head firmly, "I mean, I'm going to stay in this bedroom for the rest of the semester."

Levin was stunned when he heard this and looked at her for several seconds before he understood what she meant.

This little girl obviously knows the taste of food and wants to dominate him all the time.

Levin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He shook his head slightly and said, "Just like you, you won't be able to stand it for three days, let alone one semester. Don't cry and yell to go back."

Not to mention, if she really takes over for a semester, Hermione, Qiu Zhang, Cirilla... there are many people who will come to trouble her.

Luna seemed to be aware of her own whims. She said nothing more and just nodded silently.

Then, she sat up calmly and gently lifted the quilt. The underwear and coats seemed to have come to life, flying to her body one by one, instantly making her body look a little bloated.

She arranged her clothes, and her long golden hair fell from her coat, flowing like a waterfall, shining with charming luster. Levin looked at her, feeling an inexplicable feeling in his heart.

"Levin, thank you for your gift." Luna said softly, her voice still trembling. "My dad wrote many letters and hoped that I could spend Christmas with him. So, I will go back after the Christmas dinner today. I won’t stay at your house tonight anymore.”

After saying that, Luna gently brushed her long golden hair. The flowing hair like a waterfall shone with a charming luster in the sun, which immediately attracted Levin's attention.

Levin's heart skipped a beat when he heard her words. Although he felt a little reluctant, he would not go against her wishes.

On Christmas Day, Levin's tower was fully decorated.

The newly laid furry carpet is covered with magical snowflakes that will not melt. It is soft when you step on it, as if the entire winter has been condensed into this small world.

A huge Christmas tree stood in the middle of the hall, covered with gift boxes of various sizes, each beautifully packaged, with colorful ribbons dancing in the air. There are piles of hard-drawn fireworks and banging Boggart firecrackers under the tree, and all kinds of wonderful magical fireworks are waiting for the moment to be lit.

Fleur and Gabrielle were busy opening firecrackers in the living room, and laughter filled the whole room. From Levin's point of view, it's more like Gabrielle coaxing her sister Fleur to play. Whenever the firecrackers are lit, they will make a deafening sound, and stars of various colors will jump around the room, eventually engulfing them all in puffs of colorful smoke.

Tonks left the party early because she had to go back to spend the holidays with her parents, but she did not forget to bring holiday warmth to everyone.

She carefully prepared a Christmas sweater for everyone, which was knitted by the Tonks themselves and was full of home flavor and warmth.

Zhang Qiu and Penello worked together, and with the help of Oriana and Gwen, a table of delicacies appeared on the dining table: squirrel fish, braised pork with pickles, Christmas roast goose, milky mashed potatoes and German roasted pork knuckles As all kinds of delicacies are presented - Zhang Qiu even creatively integrates traditional Chinese New Year dishes into the Christmas banquet. Various meat dishes and fish make people salivate.

However, the dinner was so rich that everyone could hardly eat it. At the end of the meal, there were only a few girls left on the table who were still trying hard to leave some space for dessert. They risked gaining weight before eating a piece of Zhang Qiu's special dish - apple pie.

The sweet taste blooms on the tip of the tongue, making it irresistible.

Among these girls, the one with the best appetite is of course Cirilla. This girl who wields a sword and practices martial arts every day is never afraid of eating too much. 3.7

After eating the apple pie, she picked up a red Christmas pudding.

However, after taking the first bite, she discovered that there was a gold galleon wrapped in her piece of pudding. This unexpected surprise almost broke her teeth and she couldn't help but spit out the golden galleons on the table.

Fleur, who was sitting at the other end, couldn't help but frowned when she saw this scene and said softly: "The Christmas pudding made by my grandmother is not put in galleons, but a piece of sugar. This way you can chew it carefully when eating, Then swallow it gracefully and you will look more ladylike.

When Cirilla heard this, she wiped the corners of her mouth casually with the back of her hand, and looked at Fleur with a frown: "Wait a minute, are you implying that I am not ladylike enough?"

Fleur raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes inadvertently glanced at the stains on the back of Cirila's hand, and said lightly: "I'm not referring to anyone in particular, I just feel that spitting out things directly at the dinner table may cause trouble. It seems a bit unsightly.”

When Cirilla heard this, she stood up immediately. In the past few days, the two of them had been dissatisfied with each other. Now their emotions finally broke out. The two refused to give in and began to argue.

Looking back at the time when they first met, Fleur was quite enthusiastic towards Cirilla and even took the initiative to hug each other.

Pictured is Luna.
