When they passed through the winding country roads and finally arrived at the ancient and elegant Greengrass Manor.

The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the gate of the manor, adding a touch of mystery and warmth to this ancient building.

Phoenix's gaze passed through the half-open door and fixed on a familiar figure.

She was a little girl who was dressed simply but elegantly.

Her long hair fluttered gently in the breeze, and there was a hint of anticipation and nervousness on her face.

She is Astoria, the special person in Phoenix's heart.

Astoria's gaze also passed through the gate of the manor and fell on Phoenix.

She felt a surge of warmth in her heart, but it was instantly replaced by shyness when she noticed Narcissa and Lucius behind Phoenix.

She lowered her head slightly, her hands unconsciously tugging at the hem of her skirt, not knowing what to do.

Phoenix was not bothered by these little details. He strode towards Astoria with confidence and joy on his face.

He reached out and gently held Astoria's hand. It was a familiar and warm touch that made him feel extremely reassured.

"Where are you waiting for me?"

There was a hint of teasing in Phoenix's voice, and his smile was like the spring sunshine, warm and bright.

Astoria glared at him, a light blush tinting her cheeks.

She tried to pull her hand back, but Phoenix held it tightly, so she could only protest in a low voice:

"Uncle and aunt are still here, let go quickly."

There was a hint of helplessness in her voice, but more of respect for her elders.

Although she was used to Phoenix's company and care, she still felt a little uncomfortable in the presence of her elders.

Phoenix didn't care. He leaned close to Astoria's ear and whispered in a low and seductive voice:

"It's okay. They will be your parents in the future anyway. You'll have to get used to it sooner or later!"

His words revealed a deep confidence and expectation for the future.

Astoria's heartbeat accelerated involuntarily. She knew Phoenix was telling the truth, but the shyness and nervousness in her heart could not be shaken off.

Astoria's cheeks were slightly flushed under the reflection of the setting sun.

There was a hint of mischief in her eyes, and she instinctively wanted to pinch the soft flesh around Phoenix's waist.

Expressing her shyness and dissatisfaction at the moment.

However, when the figures of Narcissa and Lucius appeared in her sight.

Her movements came to an abrupt halt, replaced by a polite and respectful greeting.

"Hello, uncle and aunt, I am Astoria."

Her voice was soft and clear, with a slight tremor, showing her respect and expectation for the two elders.

The arrival of Narcissa and Lucius forced Astoria to restrain her little actions.

She didn't want to leave a bad impression on these two elders during their first meeting.

Narcissa looked at Astoria, her eyes full of smiles and satisfaction. She nodded and said:

"Astoria, what are you doing standing here? You can just wait for us in the living room."

"Quick, quick, stop standing outside, let's go inside and talk."

There was a warmth and warmth in Narcissa's words.

She took Astoria's hand and led her through the gates of the manor.

Lucius heard that Astoria was from the Greengrass family.

And after Phoenix fell in love with her, he didn't say anything else.

His eyes revealed his approval and satisfaction with the relationship, and it was obvious that he was proud of Phoenix's choice.

"As expected of Lucius, he is as good as I was back then."

Lucius thought to himself, his eyes full of approval and pride as he looked at Phoenix.

However, when Lucius thought of his eldest son Draco, his heart became heavy again.

"Humph, on the contrary, this eldest son is not only so close to Harry Potter, but he can't even find a daughter-in-law."

Lucius' heart was filled with disappointment and worry about Draco.

As everyone stepped into the spacious hall of Greengrass Manor, a solemn and warm atmosphere filled the air.

The hall is elegantly decorated, and the flames in the fireplace are leaping, adding a warm glow to the room.

Portraits of family members from past generations hang on the walls, and each painting tells the long and glorious history of the Greengrass family.

Two distinguished guests were already waiting at their seats in the hall.

One of them was Astoria's father, Damocles Greengrass.

His existence seems to be the embodiment of family glory and power, which makes people awe-inspiring.

Damocles was wearing a dark green robe embroidered with the family's silver-white emblem - a phoenix with its wings spread high.

This is not only a symbol of the family, but also a reflection of their indomitable and courageous spirit.

The texture of the robe is soft and luxurious, which complements his temperament.

His long hair fell like a silver waterfall, and the silver-white hair sparkled brightly in the sunlight.

It seems that every strand of hair contains magical power, telling the magical wisdom passed down from generation to generation by the Greengrass family.

Damocles had a handsome face, deep features, and a pair of deep and bright green eyes.

It seems to be able to see into people's hearts, revealing the depth and calmness of the wise.

His eyes showed both deep consideration for the family's future and respect and welcome for every guest.

There was always a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, a smile that was calm and in control of everything.

This smile is both a confidence in one's own abilities and a gentle tolerance towards others.

He stood tall and straight, and every step he took was graceful and confident.

There was a calmness in his demeanor, as if the whole world was at his feet.

Next to Damocles sat today's witness, Cornelius Fudge.

Mr. Fudge was renowned for his impartiality and contributions to the wizarding world.

Phoenix stood in the hall, his eyes involuntarily fell on Damocles, and he couldn't help but be shocked.

He thought to himself:

"My father-in-law is almost more handsome than me. It seems that there is a reason why Astoria is so beautiful."

He felt a little emotional, but also a little admiration for Astoria's beauty.

At this time, Cornelius Fudge's gaze was not directly on today's protagonists - Phoenix and Astoria, but turned to Draco on the side.

Mr. Fudge's role today is not just a witness, he has a more important purpose - to establish a connection with Draco.

He had his own plan in mind, hoping to win Draco over to the Ministry of Magic, or even have him become his confidant.

A hint of imperceptible ambition flashed across Fudge's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.

He turned to look at Phoenix and Astoria, a kind smile appeared on his face, and said:

"These two kids are a perfect match made in heaven. They are a perfect match."

His words were full of blessings and praise for the young couple.

Narcissa and Lucius' smiles widened when they heard Fudge's words.

They looked at Phoenix and Astoria, feeling extremely satisfied and relieved.

After all, as a parent, who doesn’t want to see their children find their ideal partner as soon as possible and build a happy family?
