Traveling through Hogwarts, just wanting to have a love affair

But Astoria didn't show it. High-end hunters often appear as prey.

Astoria gave a gentle smile, which was as warm as the spring breeze and made people feel extremely comfortable.

She walked to the dining table gracefully and sat down on her seat lightly, like a noble swan.

Her eyes were bright and gentle, like the spots of light cast by the morning sun through the leaves, giving people a warm feeling.

There was a hint of shyness in her smile, but more of it was sincerity and friendliness.

Astoria greeted everyone with a sweet voice:

"Hi, I'm Astoria Greengrass, nice to meet you!"

Her voice was soft and graceful, like a breeze blowing past people's ears.

Harry and Ron both responded to Astoria's greeting enthusiastically and introduced themselves.

Their faces were filled with friendly smiles, and they seemed to be full of expectations for the new classmate.

However, when it was Hermione's turn, her expression turned reluctant.

Because Hermione saw Astoria hugging Phoenix's arm intimately, and Phoenix looked like he was enjoying it.

She felt inexplicably irritated, and slowly stood up, whispering:

"Hello, my name is Hermione, Hermione Granger."

After saying that, she quickly sat back in her seat, lowered her head and started eating breakfast without saying anything else.

Harry, Ron and Draco all looked a little embarrassed. They tried to ease the tense atmosphere and explained:

"Hermione hasn't recovered from what happened yesterday, so she's not in a good mood. I hope you don't mind."

Astoria couldn't help but feel relieved when she heard this.

She was secretly glad that Hermione was not a strong opponent, at least that was what it seemed at the moment.

Sure enough, Astoria noticed a cold flash in Phoenix's eyes.

His tone became light, and he said:

"Let's go, Astoria."

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the Slytherin table. Draco wanted to stop him, but was stopped by Harry.

Harry frowned and asked:

"Hermione, you were the one who asked us to bring Phoenix here for dinner, so why did you do that just now?"

Hermione felt extremely aggrieved at this moment, with tears welling up in her eyes, and she looked extremely pitiful.

She felt very uncomfortable when she saw Phoenix and Astoria being intimate, and from beginning to end, Phoenix never looked at her directly.

Harry, Ron and Draco saw this scene and didn't know what to say.

Only Draco hesitated and asked after a while:

"Hermione, you're not interested in Phoenix, are you?"

Hearing this, Hermione panicked and shook her head in denial:

"How is that possible! I just think he's a little weird..."

However, deep down she knew that she had a special feeling for Phoenix, a feeling that made her feel confused and uneasy.

When Harry and the other two saw this, even the slowest Ron reacted and exclaimed:

"Hermione, do you really like Phoenix?"

Draco also hesitantly advised:

"Hermione, there are actually many good-looking boys in Hogwarts. There's no need to hang yourself on Phoenix!"

Draco was actually doing this for Hermione's own good. He knew Phoenix's character. Like him, once he made a decision, no one could change it.

Hermione suddenly raised her head at this moment, her eyes were extremely determined, as if she was about to do something very important in the next second.

She said loudly to Harry and the other two in front of her:

"He is so good, why can't I like him?"

"You know what? When I first saw him, I was attracted to him."

"He is not only handsome, but also very smart, even smarter than me. He can always solve various difficult problems easily, which makes me admire him very much."

"Later, we went through a lot together, and I found that he was a very righteous, kind, and brave person. So I felt that I had no reason not to like him!"

Hermione became more and more excited as she spoke, as if the emotions that had been suppressed for so long were finally released.

"I just want to pursue him. Since Astoria can only accompany him until he is 18, I will accompany him after he is 18. I believe that as long as I work hard to pursue my own happiness, I will succeed one day."

After saying that, Hermione suddenly stood up and left the hall, leaving Harry, Ron and Draco in shock.

The people around didn't know what was going on. They watched Hermione storm out with confusion on their faces.

Only Harry, Ron and Draco were left looking at each other, smiling bitterly.

As soon as Hermione walked out of the hall, she met a figure that surprised her.

Professor Gilderoy Lockhart was standing at the door of the auditorium with a confident smile on his face.

He smiled and said to Hermione:

"Miss Granger, I think you need my help, don't you?"

"I can teach you how to make Phoenix fall head over heels in love with you!"

------------Dividing line------------

On the other side, Phoenix was holding Astoria's hand and comforting her softly:

"Don't mind that Granger. She's just like that, weird."

"She actually dared to give you a cold shoulder just now, humph!"

Phoenix snorted coldly, with a hint of dissatisfaction on his face. He was obviously very angry about Hermione's attitude just now.

However, Astoria did not interrupt him, but looked at Phoenix quietly, with a smile in her eyes.

In fact, she really enjoyed seeing Phoenix's expression at the moment.

Because this represents Phoenix's deep love for her!

"Hehe, it's okay!"

Astoria replied with a smile, the corners of her mouth rising slightly.

Then, she patted Phoenix's hand gently and said softly:

"Then I'll ask Professor Flitwick for leave for you this afternoon?"

"That's all we can do. I'll think of other solutions this afternoon."

Phoenix sighed helplessly, with a hint of worry in his eyes.

"OK, all right."

Astoria nodded obediently in agreement.

Then she asked casually:

"Are you familiar with Miss Granger?"

Phoenix didn't even think about it and answered, "No, if Draco hadn't been close to her, I wouldn't even know her."

After saying that, Phoenix finally realized that this girl was testing him, so he asked curiously:

"You don't mean that Miss Granger is interested in me?"

Isn't Hermione the heroine? How could she possibly fall in love with him? Wouldn't that ruin the plot?

"Isn't it obvious?"

Astoria rolled her eyes at Phoenix. There were some things that she knew were best left to Phoenix.

In this way, Phoenix will definitely stay away from Hermione, so that Phoenix will not be caught off guard when he comes into contact with Hermione and be deceived by others.

After all, Phoenix is ​​a wizard from a pure-blood family. If he was really deceived by Hermione, then their Greengrass family would become the laughing stock of the entire wizarding world.

Phoenix was also a little stunned, but after thinking about it, he decided to deal with the matter calmly.

However, looking at the girl's angry expression, he thought it was very cute, so he couldn't help but smiled and asked:

"What's wrong, you little jealous bastard? Do you smell something sour?"

When Astoria heard this, her face suddenly flushed, but she still said stubbornly:

"Who is jealous? I'm not!"

Seeing her stubborn look, Phoenix couldn't help but smile and continued to tease:

"Then why are you so angry? Isn't it because of Miss Granger's matter that you feel uncomfortable?"

Astoria was immediately ashamed when her heart was touched, and she scolded:

"Don't talk nonsense, I just can't stand that woman!"

Seeing that she was about to get angry, Phoenix stopped teasing her and said seriously:

"Okay, don't be angry. I will keep my distance from you in the future and won't make you unhappy again."

After hearing this, Astoria felt a little better, but she still grumbled a little dissatisfied:

"You'd better keep your word, otherwise..."

Phoenix interrupted her quickly and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, I will definitely do it. How about this, your future boyfriend kisses you and makes Miss Granger give up completely?"

Astoria's face immediately turned red when she heard this. She glared at Phoenix shyly and said coquettishly:

"Bah, shameless!"

After saying that, he lowered his head and began to finish the food on the plate, no longer paying attention to Phoenix.

Seeing this, Phoenix raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a satisfied smile.

He knew that he had successfully calmed the sensitive little girl.

Phoenix felt very satisfied as he looked at Astoria's rosy cheeks.

"That's right, boys still have to take some initiative!" he whispered to himself.
