hp's chaotic life at Hogwarts

Chapter 14 Chapter 14

Narcissa almost fainted when she heard that her youngest son was almost killed in the belly of a spider. After learning that a girl named Riley had saved him, Narcissa kissed Merlin's robe in her heart countless times, thanking him for allowing Draco to meet this girl named Riley.

Lucius was also rare to be so friendly to Mazhong.

The Malfoy family puts family first, and even if Riley is a bitch, Narcissa and Lucius will never neglect her.

In fact, during this invitation, the two of them were already prepared not to show disdain no matter how vulgar the girl's behavior was. But I didn't expect that although Riley's etiquette was not comprehensive, it was neat and generous, and she couldn't make any big mistakes. And he also speaks with a maturity far beyond his peers. This actually made the two of them look at each other.

Riley was smiling as she listened to Narcissa talk about her interesting stories in the library. She would say one or two humorous words from time to time, making the elders chuckle. The two of them looked very harmonious.

Draco was stunned - wow! He silently glanced at his father again.

Lucius was listening to the two ladies in silence, unable to get in a word.

"It's time, Miss Ramivan. Please have lunch with us." Narcissa heard the house elf's voice and invited Riley with a smile.

Riley naturally accepted, and everyone sat down at a dining table together happily.

Draco sat to Riley's left, he had never been so close to her. Slytherin's dining room table was long, and he had his own little circle of purebloods who were usually far apart. The most recent time I sat across from her was completely different from the distance now where I could touch her just by raising my hand.

A gust of wind passed through the simple and luxurious windows, lifting the girl's hair, and carried a sweet fragrance, a light fragrance of ink.

Draco's expression was a little unnatural, and he changed his sitting position several times, as if the bottom was not a soft cushion but hot coals.

The two ladies were chatting happily, and here Lucius noticed that Draco was restless. With a glare, Draco fell silent.

Riley really enjoyed the food at Malfoy Manor. Especially the beautiful plate of lobster aspic and the dessert mousse. The cold ganache glaze and the sweet and sour strawberry jam inside made her want it more.

Seeing Riley eating happily made Narcissa happy too. A meal where both guest and host enjoy themselves.

After the meal, Narcissa asked Draco to take Riley around the manor. According to what she said: "We will follow and make you two peers uncomfortable."

Riley and Draco slowly walked around the manor, listening to Draco talk about the various luxuries of Malfoy Manor. As I listened, my mind wandered to the leaves above.

Even in early spring, the leaves that should have just sprouted are still on the tree, looking prosperous.

Seeing Riley staring at the tree, Draco was a little puzzled - I have such a good-looking Malfoy in front of you, and you don't want me to look at the tree?

"What are you looking at?" Riley lowered her head and saw Draco's slightly dissatisfied face: "I'm looking at the tree."

After being choked, Draco asked: "I'm asking why you are looking at the tree."

Riley pointed to the shade of the tree above her head: "Do you know why the leaves on the trees fall off in autumn?"

Draco frowned: "Why?"

Riley told him the reason: "Because in autumn, the tree does not have enough nutrients, so he will abandon the leaves, leaving more confidence for himself to survive the winter."

"Sounds very Slytherin," Draco said.

Riley smiled, and Draco had never found her smiling so beautifully. The eyes are curved like crescent moons in the sky, and the stars in the sky are shining in them, and under the stars are bright red roses.

"What's that sound?" Riley heard a sound break through the air and cry in the distance.

Draco replied blankly: "It's a peacock."

Riley's eyes widened: "Peacock? You mean peacock? You have such a cool animal at home and you actually..." He didn't show off.

Seeing how excited she was, Draco became happy and pulled her to run towards the peacock.

Even though Draco is so small, he is already very powerful. At this time, he dragged Riley and started running. Riley could still lend some strength.

Neither of them noticed the two pairs of eyes upstairs.

"Luke..." Narcissa looked at her son happily pulling the hemp girl, and couldn't help but frown and look at her husband beside her.

Lucius hugged his wife and his stern face softened: "Don't worry. Draco has been disgusted with Muggle-borns since he was a child and will not like her."

Hearing this, Narcissa felt relieved, and then looked at the back of the girl downstairs with some regret in her eyes: "What a pity. If she was a pureblood..."

Lucius nodded: "It is indeed a pity. But Draco knows it well."

Draco, who was having fun downstairs: "Aqiu——" Who is talking about me behind my back?

After returning to Hogwarts from Malfoy Manor with Draco, Riley, although a little tired, still did not forget the meeting she had agreed with Wood.

After parting ways with Draco, Riley went to the observatory alone. It was very late by this time. Although the secret room incident has passed, many students still returned to their dormitories early.

Wood had been at the observatory for a while.

When Riley saw the familiar figure with his back to her and looking into the distance, she thought she was late. When I looked down, I realized it wasn't there.

"How long have you been here?" The girl's voice came from behind, and Wood turned around in surprise: "You are here. I didn't stay long."

Liar. Riley could tell right away that he was lying. But she did not correct Wood: "Thank you for sending me to St. Mungo's. I believe you should know what I am here for today."

Wood looked at her steadily: "I believe you should also know what I came here to do today." He is in seventh grade this year. If you don't seize the opportunity, it will be too late.

Wood was always determined. His fanatical love for Quidditch; his defense of his friends; and now his desire to retain himself...

But Riley was not the Quaffle, and her relationship with him was more than just friends.

Riley walked up to Wood, looked up at the stars in the sky, and said to herself: "I remember when I first came to Hogwarts, the first person I met was you. You chatted with me in the car for the whole car. Quidditch. At that time, I was thinking, no wonder there was no one in this carriage. But the sunshine that day was so beautiful, and it was so nice that you smiled and discussed your hobbies with me in the sunshine. So at that time, I decided to forgive you. .”

"Later I entered Slytherin and when I went to the Quidditch pitch to see you, you turned me away and told me righteously that I couldn't go in because you were afraid that I would steal your tactics." Thinking of the past. Happy memory, Riley couldn't help but smile a little.

Wood's always vigilant face also melted away a little, bringing out a smile.

Riley continued: "So I think this boy is so cool. He is heading towards his dreams and passions, and he looks like a lion on the grassland. Besides, who says snakes and lions can't be together?"

The conversation changed: "But Wood, we are really not suitable. Anna's incident was a trigger. Even without her, we can't go on. A person's energy and time are limited, and what you need is unconditional. I can't give you the support; you can't give me the equal contribution I need. It's better to part ways with each other and live happily."

Wood looked a little anxious: "Is it because of Anna? I can guarantee... I won't..."

Riley interrupted him: "Wood, I used to like you. In fact, I really like you now who shines for the things you love, but this kind of like has nothing to do with Fengyue. Indeed, snakes and lions are not the same. It’s not that we can’t be together, it’s just you and me who are not suitable.”

Thousands of words can't compare to this sentence "I once liked you." This is a denial of the current state of love, and it is the words that can defeat Wood the most.

There are three Quidditch goals. When the Quaffle and her lunged at two different ones, he only had time to catch one.

He had guarded so many Quaffles, but he had failed to guard her.

-------

Wood left the observatory in despair. When Riley went down the stairs, she successfully captured a platinum head in the darkness of the stairs.

"Why haven't you gone back yet?" Riley asked Draco in surprise.

Draco's face turned red as he rescued the clothes from this rude woman, and then said to her very unnaturally: "I want... you to take care of it?"

In fact, he followed her. He was going back to the Slytherin common room after parting ways with her. Halfway through, he didn't know why, but he turned around. When he came to his senses, he was already standing at the corner of the stairs of the observatory.

Riley didn't care about the little platinum head, and just rubbed his hair: "Let's go back with me. Don't linger outside. You will be deducted points later."

I was following you in the first place, so you will naturally go back after everything is done. Wait? What does it mean to follow her? Draco was angry with himself in his mind - he wasn't following her!

After the two people returned to the lounge, they were shocked. The hour hand points to half past nine, which is not too early. There are still so many people awake?

Pansy, Theodore, Blaise, Daphne were present...

Mostly waiting for Draco. Riley didn't think they would welcome her, so she turned around and went back to the dormitory.

Draco watched her and him come back and leave without saying a word. He seemed quite angry and threw himself into the large sofa.

"Draco, did you really take her to see Uncle Malfoy?" Pansy asked Draco impatiently as soon as they left.

Draco was a little impatient. After saying this, would Malfoy deny his kindness?

"Of course. She saved me...and Daphne."

"What about Daphne? You will go home with her next week, right?"

Daphne has been looking soft and weak in front of Riley these days, but in front of the pure-blooded young ladies and gentlemen of her age, she still behaves in a very standard aristocratic manner: "Of course. But the specific time depends on her."

Blaise sneered at this sentence: "What? Daphne, do you still want to tell me that she still dares to say she won't go?"

They all said that the Slytherin table was very long, but Blaise and the others did not hear Riley's "Declaration of Independence".

Daphne felt a little uncomfortable with Blaise's words - Merlin, why didn't she realize that these words were so annoying before.

Daphne straightened her back and told Blaise: "She saved me and Draco. We invited her. She can naturally choose to refuse or accept. This is her right as a human being."
