It never occurred to Abraxas that his Lucius and a child would not be able to ask anything.

But things happened just as Abraxas did not expect.

After Severus left Wardmont, he talked less. Lucius tried to find a topic several times, but he used various modal particles to perfunctory him.

Lucius had nothing to do with it.

Could he still demand that Severus must answer him in full?

There is no such thing as social etiquette.

Severus's behavior could be called dull, but he couldn't be called rude.During the conversation, Severus had his full attention on him, listening intently, except that the dark little thing just didn't make any comments.And that was enough to make the conversation impossible.This also made Lucius quite frustrated.

"Aren't you going to see the others?"

Just when Lucius thought that this little black thing couldn't speak, Severus suddenly spoke, and the words that opened his mouth were to drive people away, which really made Lucius very difficult to feel happy.

"I'm no longer needed," Lucius suppressed his unhappiness, "I remember all the guests' lists, and the only one who needs me is your side."

The only kid who needed his hospitality tonight was Severus.

Lucius didn't know the real theme of this banquet, but Abraxas attached great importance to it, and this time the banquet did not include children's entertainment, so he would naturally imply on the invitation that these invited guests did not Bring the kids.In other words, Maurice and Severus were really special, they didn't follow the invitation, and Maurice seemed very familiar with everything about Malfoy, which confused Lucius even more.

He should not have any impression of such a person.And Lucius, who remembered the guest list, knew very well that there was no "Maurice" on the invitation list, let alone "Severus".

Which family do these two people belong to?What are their identities?All these kinds of news are unknown, and Lucius has nowhere to do it.

But Abraxas let him accompany Severus, and even took Morris into the study himself, which showed that their identities deserved such treatment.As long as he realizes this, Lucius can suppress his temper and reluctantly take care of this not so cute child.

"I want to find a quiet place, just let me stay." Severus was not used to the company of others, the first time he consciously sent out a signal of friendship to others was the little red-haired witch, Lucius is clearly not on this list.

But in fact there was no one around Severus who could be called a friend, and it was perfectly fine that he wouldn't get along with strangers.

To this day Severus still hadn't understood the value of a friend.

Severus was still reminiscing the incongruous feeling along the way: when he entered the manor, he clearly felt that Abraxas Malfoy didn't know them, especially when Malfoy's parents beat around the bush and asked for the teacher's name, making Severus Adams was sure the feeling was real.But if this is the case, why did the teacher come to Malfoy Manor to attend the banquet?

The Malfoys' beautiful appearances, the politeness with which they received the guests, and the proper arrangements... Severus's feelings were not obvious, his problem was only with Wardmont.

Cross-dressing——Morris—the teacher's familiarity with Malfoy——Malfoy didn't know what the teacher looked like, but then it seemed that the strangeness and temptation disappeared. Big Malfoy must have recognized the teacher...

"This is not allowed, Mr. Snape," Lucius used his most standard smile in etiquette class, "As the host, I have the obligation to make you feel considerate."

Lucius didn't know what the dazed kid was thinking at the moment, he took the initiative to grab Severus' forearm, "Well, let me take you to eat something. It's a bit late now, but dinner will have to wait for a while time.

"You'll love the Malfoys' desserts."

Severus recovered from his own thoughts, but he didn't break away from Lucius' hand, seeing the fakeness under Lucius' perfect smile, and Severus didn't refuse him either.Lucius' proposal hit the nail on the head, he was indeed hungry.He has been doing mental activities all afternoon, and his consumption is a little bigger than expected.

It's a pity... I racked my brains to sort out the information, thinking that the teacher would take a look.Before he could say anything, the teacher said that the time was up and it was time to come to Malfoy Manor to attend the banquet.

Lucius could easily see that Severus was really moved, and led Severus to a quiet corner without any effort, and tapped the table with his finger, and Lucius' favorite snack appeared on the table , with a pot of pure black tea.

Although this is the standard for afternoon tea, it is not too much to eat before meals.

Severus wasn't surprised that the Malfoy family had house-elves, rather it was more surprising that such a wealthy pure-blood family didn't have house-elves.

There should have been house-elves in the teacher's house too, but Severus had never seen one.Such creatures are not good-looking, and hard work is probably the most admirable quality.Their servility makes it easy for wizards to drive them, and their magic seems to have a subtlety different from wizards.

Lucius was much quieter after eating, which gave Severus more time to think about the things he liked to think about.

Sitting across from Severus, Lucius stared at him intently, a piece of pastry was picked up by his two fingers and casually brought to his lips.

Two small children eating snacks in the corner, unable to attract the attention of the adults who are talking about big things.But in this corner, the vast majority of people in the hall can be seen clearly.Such an environment would make it easier for Lucius to grasp the overall situation, and it would also allow him to observe Severus more.

Lucius has been trying to see what is special about Severus, or recalling Morris's appearance, trying to see if there are more similarities between the two people besides hair color and eye color. Unfortunately, the above All can not get the answer.

From Lucius' point of view, Maurice and Severus are weirdos. There are not many similarities between these two people, and it is not obvious from their behavior that they are very close.Although Lucius couldn't guarantee that he had memorized all the famous names in the wizarding world, at least he remembered the name of this banquet clearly, and he didn't know about "Maurice" and "Severus". Haven't heard anything about it.In the wizarding world, there is no trace of a person with his ability, which is very suspicious.

Lucius' complex emotions were not shown on his face, and Severus was still sensitive to Lucius' inquiry.Severus was quite familiar with that look of scrutiny and curiosity.

After taking a few mouthfuls of snacks, the hunger that almost filled his throat subsided a little, and Severus' eyes were still lingering in the crowd.He didn't forget the purpose of coming here with Morris. Morris was taken away by Abraxas Malfoy. He might be talking about something important at this moment. Now he is the only one who can keep an eye on whether the Princes are present. .

He saw the hostess coming in and out and brought a lot of people in, but he hadn't seen the Prince's family yet, so he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

From the moment Morris said that the Princes and his wife would be at the banquet, and that they were going to attend, a secret anticipation had grown in Severus' mind.Such expectations, after repeated failures, made Severus unhappy.

"Are you looking for someone?" Lucius tried his best to be calm and demeanor after realizing that he could not get more information.He will not give up any possible opportunity, no matter how difficult this kid is, he will not do it flawlessly.Isn't he just waiting now?

Severus shot him a look, meaning it was too obvious to ask.

"Who are you looking for?" Knowing that he was not averse to asking about it, Lucius asked.

Severus didn't answer directly, but asked in a low voice, "Why didn't Prince come?"

"Mr. Prince and his wife..." Lucius was stunned, and was about to answer when he saw his father coming down the stairs, and at the intersection, his mother was showing up with Prince and his wife.

What a coincidence.
