Draco's worry was like a lingering haze, hanging over his heart.

But when the topic suddenly turned to Phoenix and Astoria's engagement, his curiosity drove away some of his worries.

"By the way, I heard from mom that you and Astoria are getting engaged?"

There was a hint of relief in Draco's voice, as if this topic could make him forget his troubles for a while.

Phoenix wanted to remain calm as usual, but the happiness in his heart gushed out like a spring, causing the corners of his mouth to rise unconsciously.

He nodded slightly, and although he tried to hide it, his smile revealed his joy.

“That’s great.”

Draco said enviously, a hint of longing in his voice.

He thought about his love life and couldn't help feeling a little sad.

"Why aren't there other girls vying for my favor?"

However, Draco quickly adjusted his mood and asked cautiously:

"By the way, Hermione, what are you going to do?"

He remembered that he had expectations for Hermione and Phoenix's relationship.

But now that the situation has changed, he wants to know what Phoenix is ​​planning.

Phoenix sighed, a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes:

"I don't have any feelings for Hermione. Let's find a chance to make it clear."

He also didn't know why Hermione had a crush on him.

It confused him, but he knew his heart already belonged to Astoria.

After hearing this, Draco couldn't help but feel a little envious. He thought to himself:

"Why aren't there any girls fighting for my favor?"

His emotions were complicated, with both blessings for Phoenix and desire for his own emotional life.

The roar of the train gradually faded away and they were about to reach their destination.

Phoenix and Draco looked at each other, both of their eyes filled with anticipation for the future and relief for the past.

They packed their luggage and walked out of the carriage together as the train slowly stopped.

The night breeze blows on your face, bringing a hint of coolness and also a new beginning.

Their eyes met, and both revealed their longing for home and their tacit understanding with each other.

As they walked through the house with firm steps, they felt the long-lost warmth and peace.

Narcissa, Draco's mother, was already waiting at the door.

Her figure was elegant and eager as soon as she saw her son and Phoenix.

He couldn't wait to go forward and hug them tightly in his arms.

Her embrace was warm and familiar, releasing the excitement and longing in both of their hearts.

“How are you doing at school? Are you being bullied?”

Narcissa asked with concern, her eyes full of love for her son and care for Phoenix.

A warm feeling surged in Phoenix and Draco's hearts. They felt the warmth of home and the love of their mother.

“We’re all fine, Mom.”

They answered in unison, with relieved smiles on their faces.

Narcissa led them to the living room, which was decorated warmly and comfortably.

She asked them to sit down and then brought out a large plate of fresh fruit, colorful and fragrant.

Phoenix picked up a peach, took a bite, and the sweet juice overflowed in his mouth.

While eating, he asked casually:

“Where’s Dad?”

Draco's body stiffened slightly, his fear of his father not completely dissipated.

He couldn't help but think of Lucius' stern image in his mind, and was worried that he would suddenly appear and punish him with the "Seven Wolves".

However, Narcissa's answer made Draco's nervousness dissipate a lot.

"Oh, Lucius went to the Ministry of Magic. He is very busy these days and may come back next week."

There was a hint of helplessness in her words, but they also revealed her understanding and support for her husband's work.

Draco breathed a sigh of relief, the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

He knew that at least he could relax his tense nerves for a while until his father came back.

The three of them enjoyed this rare reunion time in the living room.

Narcissa often asked about their school life and cared about their studies and growth.

Phoenix and Draco shared their interesting stories and experiences at Hogwarts, which brought a gratified smile to Narcissa's face.

But Phoenix's eyes lingered on Draco's nervous face for a moment, and a sense of responsibility surged in his heart.

He knew that Draco had a deep fear of his father's severity.

But as a brother, he felt it was his duty to ease the tense atmosphere.

"Well, it seems I have to come in person."

Phoenix thought silently in his heart, then he took a deep breath.

After organizing his words, he asked in the calmest tone possible:

"Mom, is Dad in a bad mood right now?"

Draco was shocked when he heard Phoenix's words. He didn't expect Phoenix to ask this question so directly.

His heart beat faster and his palms were slightly sweaty.

But Phoenix gave him a reassuring look, which was full of confidence and support, and made Draco feel a little comforted.

Narcissa looked at her two sons, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes. She sighed and said:

"You don't have to think too much about it. Your father just doesn't like you getting too close to Harry Potter."

"But it's nothing, it will be fine after a while."

Her words revealed her understanding of her husband's emotions, as well as her tolerance and love for her sons.

After saying this, Narcissa touched Draco's hair lovingly.

This action made Draco feel his mother's warmth and care, and his nervousness slowly subsided.

Phoenix and Draco both breathed a sigh of relief, but Phoenix's thoughts had drifted further.

He knew that he needed to find a suitable time to have a good talk with Lucius and try to change his loyalty to Voldemort.

"But there is no need to rush. He can take his time. After all, he is only in the first grade now. He still has a few years."

Phoenix planned silently in his mind, he knew he still had time to influence and change Lucius's mind.

But at this moment, Narcissa suddenly changed the subject and asked curiously:

"By the way, Phoenix, do you have a crush on the little girl from the Greengrass family?"

This question made Phoenix slightly stunned. He didn't expect his mother to suddenly mention Astoria.

Although he knew that Narcissa had arranged a marriage between him and Astoria.

But I still don’t know how to answer this question.

It was too direct. He felt embarrassed and felt like he was caught in a premature love affair.

If I don't say it directly, what if Narcissa turns around and rejects the marriage proposal?

You know, the loyalty curse hasn't been established yet!
