dumb wizard

Xiu can make a sound, but the problem before him is that Xiu basically cannot speak.

In his previous life, he was deprived of the ability to speak when he was three years old. In this life, he was unable to speak even from birth. This made it difficult for Xiu to control his throat and tongue to make sounds.

This made Xiu a little frustrated, but he quickly pulled himself together and started learning pronunciation again.He simply extended Dumbledore's vacation indefinitely. The most important thing for him now is to be able to speak normally. Whether he can pass the NEWTS exam will be discussed later. At worst, he can continue to study next year.

Snape basically stayed by his side except in class, teaching Xiu to speak like a babbling child.

And on the third day after he spoke for the first time, Xiu's voice was no longer slightly hoarse, but with a clear and melodious voice unique to teenagers.Xiu is glad that his voice is not as cold as when he was a wandering soul, otherwise, even if he could talk, he would try not to speak, it would be too easy to offend people.

Xiu learned very quickly, and he was able to speak some basic sentences within a few days, but his pronunciation was a bit weird, and his speaking speed was also very slow.Instead of rushing to teach him long sentences, Snape paused to correct his accent.

Xiu Rarely was allowed to step out of the cellar, and directly asked the patron saint to notify the three friends to meet in the Room of Requirement.He made some snacks to take with him, and went to the eighth floor first.Not long after, the three little wizards who received the message arrived.

Harry, who was strictly prohibited from going to the cellar by Snape because of his injury, immediately rushed to Xiu who was sitting on the sofa, and held his hand, his watery blue eyes were full of excitement: "Xiu, can you talk now?"

Xiu smiled and nodded.

"That's great!" Harry's voice changed a little.Draco and Hermione were relatively restrained, but from their expressions and eyes, it could be seen that they were also very happy for Xiu.

Harry's eyes were shining, and he urged, "Hurry up! Xiu, tell me something! Call me by my name first!" Little Haley looked at Xiu expectantly, like a puppy asking for a bone .

Xiu rubbed his little head, and said slowly: "Harry"

When the green-eyed savior heard Xiu's voice for the first time, he was so excited that he didn't know what to do. He grinned and kept repeating: "Great, Xiu, you can talk, it's really great!"

Now Draco couldn't maintain his aristocratic demeanor anymore, and leaned over, "There's me too! Xiu, my name!"

Xiu smiled, "Draco."

The little witch's brown eyes also stared at Xiu, expecting to hear her name from him.Xiu paused for a moment to ensure that he could say her name completely. "Hermione."

The little girl gave Xiu a big hug, "There is nothing better than this, Xiu!"

Four best friends get carried away chatting in the Room of Requirement.Xiu even insisted on speaking with his mouth, and did not use his wand, paper and pen. Although the speed was very slow and the expression was not very clear, the other three listened happily.

It is still cold and windy in the UK in January, and the snow is overwhelming.

There is a fireplace burning in the cellar, and the orange flames are jumping happily, and the cold cellar is also filled with warm light.

Xiu sat on the sofa, holding a "British Dictionary", spelling out words jerkyly.The boy's clear voice read every simple word earnestly, which made people feel happy from the bottom of their hearts.

"ada... dapt... adapt..."

Xiu pronounced each word very slowly, and even so the pronunciation was difficult to standardize. He could only repeat the same word over and over again to correct the weird accent.

Hugh wished he could practice speaking 24 hours a day, but Madam Pomfrey said that he was still in the adaptation period, and he couldn't use his throat too much, so he could only restrain himself.

Half an hour later, Xiu put down the dictionary, drank some water to moisten his throat, played with the little snow fox for a while, and then continued to read the words.

Just after reading two words, the door of the cellar was opened, and the icy air outside came in. Xiu Leng suddenly shivered, but smiled brightly, "You... are back...."

He spoke very slowly, as if he was afraid that the other party would mishear him.

The man who came in with a cold body responded softly, took off his coat and put it on the wooden stand, wearing only a shirt and trousers, walked up to Xiu, leaned over and kissed his forehead, and asked in a low voice: "How did you learn today?"

Hugh narrowed his eyes and smiled, pondered for a while, and replied slowly: "It's...okay." Snape hugged him on his lap, resting his chin on his crooked shoulder, "Continue."

The warm breath sprayed on Xiu's sensitive ears, and the white jade-like ears were immediately stained with a layer of pink.He tilted his head, hugged the dictionary, and read word by word slowly. Snape was responsible for correcting his wrong pronunciation.Xiu, who is prone to voice control, has difficulty concentrating because of his silky and deep voice, so he can only read along mechanically.

"advanced·"

"ad...vance...d." Xiu was a little dizzy, can this damned man stop tempting him?This is cheating, you bastard!

Snape was well aware of his influence on Xiu, and was delighted to see him dazzled by his cuteness.After so long, Xiu is of course aware of his bad taste, but if he can't control himself, what can he do?

"advantage."

"advan...tage."

……

"aptitude."

"ap...attitude"

The little snow fox was lying on the soft carpet, looking up at the people on the sofa with her little head up, her two little ears drooping, and her fluffy tail hanging down, like a wronged child.

Woohoo—why does the master only care about that dark villain?

Still, the big bad guy sounds pretty good.Of course, the master's voice is even better!Well, I want to sleep.

The small body curled up into a ball, closed the black eyes, put the tail under the body, and slowly fell into a dream.

"arti...cle."

"Would you like to marry with me?" The deep voice is as beautiful as a cello, intoxicating.

Xiu blinked without turning his head, huh?long sentence?

Then say: "Woul...dyouliketomar..."

The voice suddenly stopped, what?

Xiu turned his head and looked at his dark-haired lover in surprise.

The corners of Snape's lips hooked slightly, and he pressed his forehead lightly, repeating: "Would you like to marry with me?"

Xiu's eyes were full of disbelief, but even more anticipation and joy.

"Are...are you proposing...to marriage?" Xiu tried his best to restrain his emotions, showing a very serious look, and asked slowly.

The man's pure black eyes showed a gentle smile: "Obviously, yes. So what's your answer? Xiu."

Merlin!Isn't he dreaming?Sev actually proposed to him!

Xiu's mood was agitated, he was naturally willing to do so, but his mood fluctuated too violently, he couldn't control his throat to answer, which he couldn't use proficiently, so he could only bite his lip and nod vigorously.

Snape secretly heaved a sigh of relief, although he was very clear that Yixiu's feelings for him could not be rejected, but this was the first time in his life to propose marriage, in fact he was not as calm as he appeared on the surface, and he was always nervous.

Until Snape took out the ring from his pocket and put it on for Xiu, Xiu was still in a daze, unable to recover from the sudden surprise.

Snape jokingly said, "Hugh, are you sure you want to lose the chance to put my engagement ring on me because you're in a daze?"

Xiu almost reflexively snatched another simple ring from his hand, and put it on his finger somewhat rudely.As soon as he put it on, he came back to his senses, opened his mouth slightly, and met Snape's teasing gaze, and the blush quickly spread from the base of his ears to his face.

His performance is really poor!

Xiu thought angrily.

Looking at Xiu's wrinkled little face, Snape was full of tenderness, holding his hand, the two silver rings complemented each other, "When you graduate, we will register with the Ministry of Magic."

Xiu couldn't care less about being shy, and nodded without hesitation, and then felt something was wrong.Propose!Isn't there a candlelight dinner, flowers and a diamond ring?Still want to kneel down!

Xiu has never been in a relationship in his previous life, but he is very clear about the process of marriage proposal. You know, many people propose to their girlfriends in the five-star hotel where he works, and he even researched a special package for marriage proposals!

Xiu stared and puffed his cheeks: "Dinner and fresh...flowers, no." Of course he was happy to hear Xifu propose, but he didn't have the basic process of marriage proposal, so he didn't pay much attention to it, right?

Xiu felt unbalanced.

Snape was a little taken aback, what dinner and flowers?

cough cough!It couldn't be his fault, after all, Snape had never proposed, nor had he watched anyone else do it, basically he only knew that he needed an engagement ring.

Xiu, who had a little awkwardness, was even more uncomfortable. He didn't even check how to propose? !

Snape didn't understand what was going on with his always well-behaved little lover, but it was not easy to want flowers and dinner?

"What flowers do you want?"

Xiu replied intuitively: "Phalaenopsis." Snape frowned, he hadn't forgotten that it was Ansair who confessed to Xiu in the Phalaenopsis bushes, which caused him to misunderstand.

However, if Xiu likes it, he can still accept it reluctantly.A silent and wandless transfiguration spell, a quill on the table turned into a bunch of red phalaenopsis.

Called the flower with the flying spell, put it in Xiu's hand, stood up, "I'll make dinner." Then he went into the kitchen.

Xiu, who was still sitting on the sofa, looked at a large handful of phalaenopsis in his hand, and then looked in the direction of the kitchen, feeling very depressed.

Hugh White are you an idiot?What flowers does a big man want?Want a candlelight dinner?

Xiu was horrified to find that he had a girlish heart!This terrifying realization made his skin crawl.

It's all because I watched too many proposal scenes back then!

Xiu naturally vented his anger, threw the flowers on the table, rushed to the kitchen in two or three steps, drove Snape out, rolled up his sleeves and went to work.

Snape was pushed out of the kitchen, looked back, and saw Xiu giggling for a while looking at the very simple silver ring in his hand, and then started to work on dinner with full motivation.
