Harry Potter: Impossibly Cute

The last stop is of course Ollivander's Wand Shop.

Draco was obviously very excited. As soon as they pushed open the door, they saw a crowded, narrow and shabby shop.

It was obviously the first time for both of them to come here, and they were frightened by the shabby scene.

“This is totally different from what I imagined”

Draco whispered into Ling Bai's ear and Ling Bai smiled.

“Yes, it’s definitely different from what I imagined.”

Ollivander finally turned around and looked at the group.

"Oh, welcome, isn't this Malfoy?"

"Let's pick out wands"

Draco took a step forward and raised his proud little chin slightly.

"Of course you can. Every new student needs to bring a wand with them. But rather than you choosing the wand, I think it's the wand that chooses you."

"Okay, stop talking so much, Ling Bai, I'll go first"

Ling Bai naturally had no objection, he turned his head and looked outside.

"Father, let's go to Florin's ice cream shop to eat ice cream later."

Tom's face cracked for a moment.

He never thought that one day he would actually buy something called ice cream to eat.

But looking at the expectant look on the face of the person in front of him, Tom nodded.

Draco tried wand after wand, but either the light bulb was accidentally broken or the wand flew out.

The already run-down shop was made even more messy.

Fortunately, I finally chose a suitable wand.

A ten-inch hawthorn wand with a unicorn hair core.

"Hmm, what a magical combination, the combination of the most complex hawthorn wood and the most loyal unicorn hair, what a contradictory existence."

Ling Bai glanced at the magic wand.

Although Draco didn't quite understand what the strange old man in front of him was saying, he was still very happy that he had chosen a wand that suited him.

"Ling Bai, it's your turn."

Ling Bai smiled at Ollivander.

"Well, I'm going to have to look carefully for your wand."

Ollivander began to search through the boxes for his wand.

Like Draco, Ling Bai tried several and none of them were suitable.

Ollivander began to scratch his head.

"Ah, I thought of one, it's a very special wand"

Ollivander walked inside and came out after a long while with a box.

But the box was covered with thick dust.

Ollivander blew away the ashes and opened the box.

"This is made of acacia wood, a very rare material. I only have this one left in my shop. Try it, kid."

As soon as Ling Bai picked up the wand, he felt a warm feeling flowing into his body from the hand holding the wand.

"It seems it has chosen you. Thirteen inches of acacia wood, with a dragon nerve as the core. Perfect work."

"Child, you will definitely be a great wizard in the future"

Ling Bai was a little confused.

"Why do you say that?"

"Acacia wood will refuse to perform magic for any wizard other than its owner, so this wand cannot be used by anyone except you."

Ollivander was obviously very excited.

"Thank you"

Ling Bai put away his wand, and everyone paid the two children to buy ice cream.

"Lord, what is the meaning of this wand?"

There was a hint of worry in Lucius' eyes.

"Whatever the meaning is, I can protect him."

The two children came back with ice cream, and Ling Bai scooped a spoonful and handed it to Tom.

Because he was not tall enough, Ling Bai had to stand on tiptoe to get it to Tom's mouth.

Tom glanced.

"Father, try it."

Finally the man compromised, opened his mouth and took a bite.

“Isn’t it delicious, Dad?”

Tom hummed, and everyone went to get their robes and returned to the manor.

After everyone came back, Ling Bai took the initiative to find Tom.

There was some uneasiness in his beautiful green eyes.

"Father"

"What's up"

"Is father angry? Why? Is it because of my wand?"

Tom looked at the child in front of him in silence.

In fact, Tom knew very well that the person in front of him was not his child at all.

He stole it. He is a despicable thief.

But so what? The first time Tom saw this person, he felt that the person in front of him belonged to him.

"Father"

Tom remained silent, and Ling Bai couldn't help but move closer.

The sudden approach of the person in front of him made Tom's body stiffen.

He was always at a loss as to what to do when facing this nominal child in front of him.

A light, refreshing fragrance entered his nostrils.

Tom thought about it carefully.

It smells like roses, but not quite.

It is the scent of patchouli and rose blended together, and this scent seems like the life of a rose.

Roses are thorny, full of vitality, and bloom arrogantly.

Tom didn't know why he had such an idea. He felt that the child in front of him smelled completely different from him.

The person in front of me is soft, tolerant and well-behaved.

How could she be like that rebellious rose?

Tom kept the thought to himself.

After a long time without getting an answer from Tom, Ling Bai curled his lips slightly, with a look of loss on his face.

"Father doesn't want to talk to me? I must have done something to make him unhappy."

Tom came back to his senses instantly.

"Well, I'm not unhappy, I'm just worried. Ling Bai, my child, come here, I want to tell you something."

Ling Bai obediently walked over and squatted beside Tom, resting his head on his knees, like a well-behaved and lazy cat.

The coldness in Tom's eyes gradually disappeared, turning into a gentleness that he himself couldn't believe.

"Ling Bai, you are my child, there are some things you must know"

Tom knew that he couldn't hide it from the person in front of him any longer. After all, he would soon be exposed to the outside world. If so, his identity would not be concealed at all. In addition, with Ling Bai's last name, he knew that Dumbledore would pay more attention to him.

Instead of letting Ling Bai know passively, it would be better for him to tell him actively.

In fact, Tom has been struggling with the question of when to tell Ling Bai.

His current name is a taboo in the magic world, so if he doesn't tell it now, he can keep it a secret for a while.

But today, the wand in Ling Bai's hand made Tom a little flustered.

This wand is as powerful as his wand, and it is also so rare.

Tom's eyes met the dark green eyes of the person in front of him.

Those eyes would remind him of the so-called boy-who-lived.

Tom had also secretly seen the boy. He was thin and small, wearing thick black-framed glasses. He was so ugly, not as pretty as his child.

But no matter what, they are related by blood. Tom knows that he is not indifferent to blood ties, but he is afraid of Ling Bai, so he has been thinking about it on the way back, and finally he plans to tell Ling Bai his identity.

But he will definitely keep Ling Bai's identity a secret.

Thinking of this, Tom thought of another person, a traitor.

His rebellion at that time was because of that child. If he knew Ling Bai's identity, what choice would he make?
