Traveling through Hogwarts, just wanting to have a love affair

His question went straight to the heart of the matter, as a father his primary concern was his son's safety.

Phoenix nodded, his eyes firm:

"I've learned how to control it and it's safe now."

His answer made his parents feel a little relieved. Although they might still need time to fully accept this fact, at least they knew that Phoenix was capable of protecting himself.

Lucius's eyes were complicated. He glanced at Phoenix and an indescribable bitter smile welled up in his heart.

He stood up, facing Phoenix and Draco, and said something that confused them all with a tired voice:

"Well, you decide for yourselves!"

His words revealed a sense of helplessness and resignation, as if at this moment he had decided to leave the choice of the future entirely to the next generation.

Although Lucius' words were brief, they made everyone present feel a heavy sense of responsibility.

After saying this, Lucius turned around and prepared to leave the study. His steps seemed a little heavy, and he was obviously tired from the long discussion.

Narcissa noticed his action and quickly reminded him:

"You haven't eaten yet!"

There was concern in her voice, and she obviously didn't want Lucius to neglect his body because of his worries.

Lucius stopped, turned around and waved his hand, with a hint of weakness in his expression, and said softly:

"I'm not hungry, you guys eat first!"

His words revealed an emotion of not wanting to worry his family, and also showed that he was not in a relaxed mood at the moment.

Phoenix and Draco looked at each other, confusion written all over their faces.

There was a flash of deep thought in Narcissa's eyes, as if she had caught some unspoken meaning in Lucius' words.

Her brows furrowed slightly, but she quickly adjusted her mood and returned to her usual elegance and composure.

She turned to the others present, with a gentle smile on her face, and said softly:

"Then let's eat first. I'll bring the meal up to Lucius later."

Her words revealed a maternal care and sense of responsibility towards the family, and at the same time invisibly eased the tense atmosphere in the room.

Narcissa knew, even though Lucius probably didn't have an appetite right now.

But it was very important to conserve her strength, and she decided to prepare some food for him herself later.

After hearing what Narcissa said, everyone present nodded in agreement.

They understood Lucius's feelings at the moment and respected his decision.

So, everyone started to leave the study and walk towards the dining room to prepare for dinner.

The restaurant was already set with exquisite tableware and sumptuous food, and the candlelight danced on the silverware, creating a warm and peaceful atmosphere.

As people took their seats, the restaurant was gradually filled with the sound of cutlery clinking and low conversations.

Narcissa closed the study door gently, her steps light as she didn't want to disturb Lucius.

She held a plate of carefully prepared food in her hands and prepared to go upstairs to give him a surprise.

In this brief moment of peace, Draco finally couldn't help but feel curious.

He looked around and confirmed that Narcissa had left, then asked the others present:

"What did he mean by that?"

There was a hint of confusion and inquiry in his voice, and he was obviously bewildered by Lucius's sudden words.

Draco's tone revealed the frankness and impulsiveness typical of young people, and he was eager to get a clear answer.

However, Harry Potter gave Draco a light kick under the table.

His movement was slight, but enough for Draco to sense his seriousness.

Harry's eyes were firm, his voice was low and powerful:

"He's your dad, don't call him 'he'!"

Harry's tone carried an unquestionable authority.

He had been without the company of his parents since he was a child, and his desire for family warmth and affection made him dissatisfied with Draco's rudeness.

Draco was made a little uncomfortable by Harry's serious attitude. He curled his lips, obviously not convinced by Harry's accusation.

But under Harry's serious expression, he finally nodded reluctantly, indicating that he accepted Harry's reminder.

Draco knew Harry's past and understood his emphasis on family. Although he sometimes felt impatient with Harry's preaching, he also understood that Harry's starting point was good.

Harry saw Draco nod, a satisfied smile on his face.

He knew Draco sometimes needed a little reminder, but overall, he believed Draco understood and respected the importance of family.

Phoenix had a playful smile on his face, and he was secretly impressed by the scene before him.

He found it somewhat amusing because the interactions between Draco and Harry reminded him of their friendship and subtle rivalry.

Phoenix thought:

"It seems that Draco is a little passive!"

There was a hint of ease and playfulness in his voice, as if he was enjoying this little family theater.

Phoenix said lazily:

"I don't know. I think he has accepted your and Harry's relationship!"

His words were full of teasing, as if to imply Draco's respect and acceptance of Harry.

Phoenix's eyebrows rose slightly, a playful challenge in his expression.

Although he cannot see, his senses are extremely sharp and he can pick up on the emotional changes of those around him.

He knew that Draco and Harry's faces must be full of embarrassment and shame at this moment, and this subtle atmosphere made him feel amused.

Phoenix's attention was torn from Draco and Harry's interaction.

He turned his head, a mischievous smile on his face, to Astoria.

His wife said in an exaggeratedly pathetic tone:

"Astoria, I can't see..."

There was a hint of amusement in his voice, but it also revealed his dependence on and trust in Astoria.

Although Phoenix has some visual difficulties, his sense of humor and optimistic attitude towards life always infect people around him.

Astoria looked at Phoenix and sighed helplessly, her eyes full of pampering and love.

She knew Phoenix's joke, but was happy to play along, so she said gently:

"Okay, okay, I'll feed you!"

There was a hint of smile in her words, and it was obvious that she was not disgusted by Phoenix's little tricks.

Then, Astoria began to carefully pick up food for Phoenix, her movements gentle and considerate.

To Draco and Harry, this scene was undoubtedly a mouthful of "dog food" that they were forced to eat. They both exchanged awkward glances.

There was a hint of expectation on Draco's face, and he looked at Harry, as if seeking some kind of resonance or comfort.

However, Harry simply glanced at Draco with a barely perceptible hint of embarrassment in his expression.

Then he quickly turned his attention back to his food and buried his head in eating, as if this could avoid this sudden "sweet attack".

Harry's action, though simple, betrayed his discomfort with such public displays of emotion.

The atmosphere at the table became more warm because of this little episode, and the interaction between Phoenix and Astoria made everyone present feel the deep affection between them.

Although Draco and Harry were a little overwhelmed by this sudden "dog food".

But they also have to admit that the love between Phoenix and Astoria is enviable.
