Harry Potter: Impossibly Cute

When they returned, they saw that there was already someone sitting in the living room of the manor. The man was tall, and although he had his back to them, based on his stature, they could guess that he had an extraordinary appearance.

As soon as Ling Bai saw the person coming, he trotted towards the person like a baby bird returning to its nest.

"Father"

The boy was embraced tightly, and the scent of the first snow was still on his body. The man hugged the boy tighter.

“Is it cold outside?”

The big hand covered the boy's slightly red ears.

Ling Bai's face was very small, so small that Tom felt he could cover his face with one hand.

Ling Bai's eyes seemed to be filled with stars, and Tom's face was reflected in his eyes.

He has the appearance of a mature man in his thirties. Although his skin is still pale, it does not conceal his handsomeness, but instead adds a sense of mystery to him.

Just like the legendary vampires, they have long lifespans and never-aging looks.

"Take You Home"

Tom held Ling Bai's hand and turned to look at Lucius and the other two.

Lucius and Narcissa bowed slightly to show respect, while Draco looked at Ling Bai with reluctance.

"Aren't we spending Christmas together this year?"

"I'm sorry Draco, but I'd rather go back to be with my dad. We'll be together again when school starts, right? You'll receive my gift tomorrow morning."

Lucius pulled Draco's arm, and Draco understood what his father meant.

"See you before school starts."

Ling Bai smiled at Draco.

Tom nodded at Lucius.

"Thanks for your hard work"

Lucius looked flattered.

“This is what I should do”

Although Tom's skin was pale, his body temperature was very high.

Ling Bai could feel the warmth coming through his palms.

A stream of spiritual energy also flowed into his dried-up spiritual sea. Although it was small, Ling Bai was still very satisfied.

Although I can gain a lot of spiritual energy from Draco, I don’t know if it’s because of his age or something else, Draco’s spiritual energy is always consumed very quickly.

And Tom's aura is obviously more mellow.

Ling Bai sighed silently in his heart, wondering when his little body would grow up. By then, he wouldn't have to worry about spiritual energy anymore.

The two returned to Tom's manor, and the usually deserted manor became lively because of the arrival of Halloween.

The house elves were moving back and forth, setting up the Christmas decorations.

Even the house-elves were dressed in new Christmas clothes.

The elves were also very happy to see Ling Bai appear. Tom used to dislike this kind of creature very much. Not to mention wearing clothes, he would not even allow them to appear in front of him.

After Ling Bai accidentally discovered this group of house-elves, he persuaded Tom to give them a certain amount of freedom.

You see, now they can not only work in front of Tom, but also have their own clothes for different festivals.

"My dear little master, welcome back."

The little guy holding a bunch of gift boxes appeared in front of Ling Bai.

"Hey Dobby, are you used to living here?"

"Very good little master, look at my new clothes, I never thought I could wear such beautiful clothes in my life"

Ling Bai smiled, turned around and took out a box from his backpack.

"This is your Christmas present, Merry Christmas, but remember to open it tomorrow."

Dobby looked at the box, even forgetting what was in his hand, with a look of excitement and disbelief on his face.

"Is this for me?"

"certainly"

"Dobby is so happy. He never thought he would receive a Christmas gift. Dobby will definitely treasure it."

"It's okay Dobby, you'll have one every Christmas from now on."

Tom frowned slightly as he looked at the crying house-elf. He really didn't like these guys.

"Father"

His hand was gently pulled, Tom came back to his senses and looked down at Ling Bai.

"Dad, I will personally hand you your Christmas present tomorrow."

Tom's brows relaxed little by little, and although he just hummed, Ling Bai knew very well that he had completely grasped this so-called father.

It was a cold winter outside the window. Inside the house, a young boy was leaning against the fireplace, holding a thick book in his hands. The flames in the fireplace made his cheeks red.

Tom was half-hugging Ling Bai, and Nagini next to him was sticking out her tongue, lying lazily beside Ling Bai, shaking her little tail.

Tom looked at the book in Ling Bai's hand and frowned slightly.

"This is something you only learn in third grade. Why do you want to read this? Can you understand it?"

"Of course, father, please don't underestimate me."

Tom was silent for a moment.

"You don't need to make yourself so tired, you can enjoy your time on campus. Tell me if you have made any friends at school."

In fact, Tom knew very well what happened to Ling Bai in school. He knew everything from the letter Draco sent to Lucius.

Including his relationship with Harry Potter.

The one who was his real brother, his family.

What Ling Bai said was indeed what he expected.

"Harry Potter, Ling Bai likes him very much"

"Yes, Harry is a very lovely person, but Draco doesn't like him very much, which always makes me distressed."

Tom placed his hand on Ling Bai's head, gently comforting the young boy.

"That's normal. Slytherins and Gryffindors have always been at odds with each other."

"I always thought I would go to Ravenclaw, but I didn't expect to go to Slytherin"

“You don’t like this school”

Tom's body stiffened, and his voice was filled with tension that he himself didn't even notice.

Tom knew clearly that Slytherin blood ran in his bones. If Ling Bai didn't like this house, did it mean that he didn't like him either?

After all, Tom himself knew very well that, if it really came down to it, Ling Bai should go to Gryffindor, like his parents.

Tom couldn't help but clench his hands. He never thought that the word "worrying about gains and losses" would appear in his mind.

But the fact is that he is now like a frightened bird, and any unintentional words from the young boy will make him think wildly.

Ling Bai shook his head seriously.

"Actually, I can go anywhere. Slytherin is also very good, and I like the dean of Slytherin very much. Professor Snape is a very good potion master."

Hearing this long-lost name, Tom was stunned for a moment and felt a little regretful.

He admitted that Snape was a rare talent, but it was a pity that he could never be loyal to him wholeheartedly.

But it is precisely because of this that his young boy will not get hurt.

Even without any evidence, he firmly believed that Snape would sacrifice his life for these eyes.

Because he had already become a walking corpse, his only mission in life was to protect Lily's children.
