Harry Potter: Reunion with the Enemy
Chapter 44: Recovering from a Long Illness
Draco looked at the time and decided to urge Harry beside him to go to bed in ten minutes.
At this moment, Harry was lying on Draco's shoulder, using the enhanced Quidditch telescope and image transfer spell given by George as a gift to transfer the footage of the Quidditch World Cup qualifiers that he had missed before to the white wall of the apartment, and was watching it with great interest.
Professional technical analysis one by one makes the game replay at this moment more like a post-match review.
Harry was still able to scream excitedly when he saw the exciting parts. After accidentally rolling off the lazy sofa, he quickly returned to his original position, grabbed Draco's arm, and continued to immerse himself in the game scenes.
Draco on the side just calmly looked at the clear images that quickly switched on the wall and the commentary that popped up in time. He didn't hate Quidditch, but he wasn't a big fan either.
Quidditch was a topic that pure-blood families were very keen on before. In addition, the top box seats provided by some advanced Quidditch events could also satisfy the vanity of some pure-blood families, which made it a compulsory course for some children. In order to be able to express some unique insights in some social occasions, Draco was trained in related skills at a very young age.
But during his time at Hogwarts, Draco was very glad that he joined the Slytherin Quidditch team early on. This legitimate opportunity allowed him to stick close to Harry on the field - in the name of finding the Golden Snitch, no one would think there was anything inappropriate about this.
There is no chance of close contact once you step off the playing field, but those courses in the classroom - there are many rows of people between each class.
When every player on the field was nervous about the score, Draco could always fly around Harry and watch him concentrate on searching for his target from a close distance.
Compared to being in the stadium and watching the game up close as a player, the top box or the first row of seats is nothing. During the Gryffindor and Slytherin match at Hogwarts, whenever Harry suddenly started to sprint on his broom, Draco would always speed up and follow behind the fast-moving Harry, as if he could reach out and touch the corner of his flying uniform.
Draco would occasionally speed up to the point where he was alongside Harry, and to others he would look like he was desperately trying to win the race or about to knock Harry off his broom, but in reality Draco just wanted to turn his head to admire the corners of Harry's mouth that were raised because he had found the Golden Snitch.
There's nothing more charming than a prancing Gryffindor lion.
At this moment, the telescope sent by George could even record the game content from the perspective of every player on the field. Draco secretly marveled at the Weasley family's leading position in the research and development of new magic products, but he also felt a little sorry that this big business was taken by the goblins from Gringotts.
The Malfoy family's investment areas are very broad, but there have been few new projects that have caught Draco's attention recently. Compared with the goblin's gambling agreement, the Malfoy family's investment is generous and can provide huge financial support for all promising research.
It was still too late. Draco sighed softly, then reached out and touched Harry's cheek, using his eyes to remind him that it was already late at night. In order to protect his body that had been discharged early from the hospital, and also to participate in the hunting activity invited by the Forsyth family tomorrow, it was time to rest.
Harry couldn't take his eyes off the game. In the game screen, Wood saved the ball with a brilliant move. "Wow!" Harry cheered for the old captain, completely unaware of Draco's expression.
In desperation, Draco could only hold down the restless Harry and coax him back to the bed.
A patient who has just recovered from a long illness is still a patient.
A message from Alex brought Harry's discharge date forward to today, just because Matthew decided to invite them both to join the hunt.
Draco originally wanted to reject the invitation because of Harry's physical recovery, but Alex vaguely revealed in the conversation that some members of the Lakeside Club would join. After seeing this news, Draco hesitated again and again, and finally agreed to go with Teacher Potter tomorrow.
"Because my recent drama performance was very successful, and the mock test you predicted for me last time was almost all correct, which allowed me to get several A grades. I even suspected that you were one of the teachers in our school! You are amazing!" Alex sent a message to Draco containing this good news, and he also inserted a huge heart emoticon here. "Because the hunting season is coming, my father was merciful and let me stop tutoring for a few days, saying that he would take me to an island in Oceania to hunt deer and rabbits. Of course, he also wants to take you this time."
Draco and Harry were not unfamiliar with Matthew's invitation. Putting aside his moody and extremely utilitarian personality, Matthew was still a generous employer. After gaining his trust, the Forsyth family liked to bring the two of them with them when they went to various places.
The reason was simple, it was just because Draco had clearly expressed to Matthew his ambition and desire to get close to the Lakeside Club during the squash tournament. Matthew felt that he saw his ambitious young self in him. When middle-aged people are no longer young, they will be happy to find shadows of their past selves in young people.
Of course, Matthew was also very happy to let others see two handsome young men being respectful to him, not to mention that Draco could say some nice and pleasing words at some family dinners.
The Forsyths' recent invitation to go out was because Lina wanted to eat fresh oysters.
"I miss the taste of fresh Bluff oysters, dear. Perhaps we could go for dinner tonight and bring Harry and Draco along."
"Is it the same place as last time?" Alex stopped his squash training, looked back at his mother and asked.
"Yeah, although their other dishes aren't particularly satisfying." Lina nodded.
"Oh - are we going to wait until dinner time and then take the bus together?" Harry asked without hesitation.
Lina replied with a little surprise: "In fact, the store is in Norway, but it doesn't matter. Matthew will charter a plane for everyone. It only takes a few hours."
During that dinner, Harry was shocked by Draco's familiarity with Muggle wines and knowledge of wineries revealed in his conversation with the Forsyth family, while Matthew was also impressed by Draco's insights into financial policies and latest trends.
"I'm beginning to suspect that you're about to surpass me in your knowledge of the Muggle world." On the chartered plane back to the UK from Norway, Harry turned to Draco and said, "Your learning speed is amazing."
"I've learned the sections of Snow White and Cinderella," Draco joked. "The Malfoy family doesn't allow for dull moments at the dinner table."
"Reserve for Muggle Studies," Harry said, half jokingly, half admiringly.
"Really? But I haven't even studied you thoroughly - to digress, I think you look a lot like Cinderella." Draco looked out the window of the plane, and below him was a cluster of cities with lights shining in the dark night. "Not Cinderella wearing crystal shoes, but Cinderella beating up a dragon."
