Harry Potter: Impossibly Cute

Chapter 70: Snape takes him home

"Why didn't you reply to the letter I wrote to you?"

Ling Bai was a little stunned.

"I have never received a letter from you, Professor."

Snape's brows became even colder.

“Where have you been all this time?”

"I... Professor, a lot of things happened to me during this holiday, and I don't know what to say for the moment."

Ling Bai's brows were downcast, his eyes full of sadness and struggle.

Snape's heart softened, and his voice unconsciously became softer.

"Because of Voldemort's existence"

Ling Bai raised his head and looked at Snape with disbelief in his eyes.

"I know everything. It was Voldemort who took you away."

"Professor, you..."

"Voldemort, or Tom Riddle, has been searching for you since you disappeared. Both the wizarding world and the Muggle world know that you are missing."

"what!"

"I went to Lucius's manor to look for you and met him. He told me what happened and asked me to look for you."

Ling Bai's face showed some complicated emotions.

Snape reached out and touched Ling Bai's head.

"It's no use hiding from him. School is about to start. Don't you even want to go to school?"

Ling Bai shook his head.

“I will definitely go to school”

"Then he will find you somehow."

Ling Bai bit her lip, and there was some mist in her beautiful eyes.

"Professor, I really don't know how to face him. I don't know how to face Harry. How should I tell Harry that the father who raised me was actually the murderer who killed my real parents?"

Snape bent down and hugged the man in his arms, his eyes full of heartache.

"Potter won't blame you."

"But I can't just watch Harry kill him."

Ling Bai finally couldn't hold back and sobbed softly.

Snape patted him on the back comfortingly.

Listening to the person in his arms sobbing softly, his heart seemed to be pulled together.

"Come to my place first, okay? I'll be with you no matter what."

Ling Bai nodded and wiped the tears from his face.

"But I have to tell my friend first, so that I don't have to live in his house during this period of time, which is always a bother for him."

Snape naturally had no objection.

When the two returned to the door of the bookstore, they saw Theodore with an anxious look on his face.

"Ling Bai"

Seeing Ling Bai, Theodore trotted over.

"Where did you go? You disappeared in the blink of an eye."

"Met Professor Snape"

Only then did Theodore notice Snape standing next to him.

"professor"

Snape nodded slightly; he was very impressed with this student.

He had an outstanding talent in potions and Snape was very optimistic about him.

"Thank you, Theodore. I plan to go to the professor's house with him first, and we'll see each other after school starts."

Theodore was stunned, with disappointment in his eyes.

"You're leaving"

"Well, see you at the start of school."

Ling Bai reached out and hugged Theodore, then left with Snape. Theodore looked at their backs as they left, with the unique rose scent still in his arms.

His breath gradually dissipated from his arms, and Theodore stretched out his hand and grabbed at the air, as if trying to catch it.

A sour feeling filled his heart, making it difficult for him to breathe.

He naturally knew that he and Ling Bai would have to part ways, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon.

Theodore even regretted agreeing to Ling Bai's request today, and regretted why he didn't follow him closely just now.

But it's no use saying anything now.

Theodore took a deep breath and gradually disappeared into Diagon Alley.

Snape took Ling Bai back to his home.

Snape's house is also cold, with cold colors throughout.

"Professor, why is your home like this too? I thought the lounge was like that because there was no other way."

Ling Bai's mood had improved a lot, and he was now looking around Snape's house.

"That's your room."

Snape pointed to a room.

Ling Bai opened it, and the smell of sunshine filled the room.

Ling Bai was a little surprised.

"This room is totally out of place in your home, Professor."

The room that Ling Bai opened was decorated very warmly, with soft carpets, flowers and plants, and various cute ornaments placed on the cabinets.

There is also a balcony in the room, with a rocking chair on it that looks extremely comfortable.

"Wow, this rocking chair is so comfortable"

Snape felt a little relieved when he saw that Ling Bai liked it.

He decorated this room bit by bit by himself, and every small ornament inside was carefully selected by him because he thought the boy would like it.

Snape never thought that he would do such a thing one day.

But when I saw the smile on the boy's face, I felt that everything I had done was worth it.

"You can stay here for the time being. I think he will know the news soon."

Ling Bai's body stiffened and the smile on his face disappeared.

"Don't be afraid"

Snape held Ling Bai's hand, and Ling Bai gave a somewhat forced smile.

"Well, Professor, you are right. I will have to face it sooner or later."

Snape's house is a small two-story villa.

There were no house-elfs in the room, which meant that Snape had to do everything himself.

Snape looked at the ingredients in the cupboard, thinking about what to make in the evening.

"Professor, you usually cook for yourself."

Ling Bai was very surprised.

“What’s so surprising?”

"Of course you are surprised, but it means I am in for a treat tonight. It is my first time to taste the food cooked by the professor. Am I the first one?"

Snape hummed, the sound was very small, but Ling Bai still caught it.

“Wow, that’s awesome.”

Snape soon became busy in the kitchen.

At home he took off the troublesome black cloak.

Revealing a slim black wizard costume.

Ling Bai's eyes quietly sized up the man.

Narrow waist, perky butt, this figure... wow.

Ling Bai felt that Snape was a little strange, as if he was tempting him.

Ling Bai raised his eyebrows slightly and curled up on Snape's sofa to read a book.

Snape's room has a lot of things, but it has a lot of books.

Soon, a fragrance came from the kitchen.

Ling Bai swallowed subconsciously.
