Chapter 59 Christmas Ball

After it was all over, Snape, to everyone's surprise, left the Slytherins alone.

"The Yule Ball is coming." He scowled, looking as if someone had put a knife to his neck to force him to say these words again, "It's a boring tradition of the Triwizard Tournament, only for four Open to students above grade. Those of you here... are unfortunately in the line."

Pansy suddenly began to tremble.Rong Jiu knew that she was trying her best not to laugh.In fact, not only Pansy, everyone else suddenly started shaking or staring at the toes of their shoes.

Snape's face suddenly became more gloomy, and the words of reprimand had already reached his lips.But he suddenly noticed that in the middle of the classroom, Rong Jiu was quietly resting his chin, concentrating on the book at hand, and just turned a new page at this moment.

He suddenly remembered that when she was in the second year, at Malfoy Manor, her eyes were sparkling and looked so fresh, completely different from now, she leaned in front of him, and even asked him lewdly: " The professor ran out like this, shouldn't it be for the same reason as me?"

He really doesn't like dancing, but the reason for it...

He looked away, and his face became even uglier.

"Young students can also attend the ball if they are invited," Snape continued. "The ball starts at eight o'clock on Christmas night and ends at twelve o'clock. Wear your dress robes."

Pansy was shaking again.This time it wasn't for laughing at Professor Snape, but out of joy, because the new custom-made dress she made was very beautiful, it matched her skin tone very well, and it could show her figure perfectly.

"I don't care what you think of it, except that I won't allow anyone to lose Slytherin's face." Snape's dark eyes swept across the room, "If I knew someone did something rude... Perhaps, you are very confident in your antidote?"

He stepped off the podium, his voice very soft, but the words that came out were not at all true: "I don't care about other houses, you, everyone must have a partner, no matter what method you use. If I see someone alone Standing there in a daze, humiliating the entire academy... Maybe you can try it, and see what the consequences will be."

"get out of class."

As soon as Snape's figure disappeared into the classroom, Pansy came over excitedly: "Say, should I be more reserved, or should I take the initiative to invite Draco? Oh, wait, is it possible that you are going to meet siblings this year?" file?"

"Come on, I think you should be more reserved and wait for Draco to invite you." Rong Jiu raised his eyebrows, "I think he will do so."

"Really!" Pan Xi screamed excitedly, put his arms around Rong Jiu's neck, gave her a big kiss, was pushed away by the latter in disgust, and wiped his face.

"What about you?" Pansy reacted belatedly, "Whose invitation are you planning to accept? Or invite whom?"

Rong Jiu looked at the sky: "I don't plan to. I might go to the dance alone."

"What? Are you crazy?" Pansy exclaimed, "Didn't you hear what the professor just said? Are you really going to try the consequences?"

Rong Jiu threw the schoolbag on her body and stood up: "Yes, can he eat me?"

Pan Xi thought she was joking, but after a week, seeing Rong Jiu reject nearly twenty invitations to the dance, she finally lost her composure.After rejecting yet another Ravenclaw seventh year, she asked worriedly, "Are you serious?"

"Yes." Rong Jiu replied casually, writing down lines of text fluently.All she had left was her dissertation on History of Magic, and it would be best to finish it today, as Draco would teach her how to dance tonight.

Pansy couldn't understand at all: "But why? You prepared such a beautiful dress, and those beautiful jewelry..."

"That was prepared by Aunt Narcissa." Rong Jiu turned over a new page, found what she wanted, and continued to work on the paper, without paying any attention to it.

Pansy still couldn't understand: "This is in front of the people of the three schools. Don't you want to look good in front of Krum? That is the best Seeker in the world! Or that Delacour, don't you want to look good in front of Krum? Suppress her limelight?"

Rong Jiu raised his head and thought about it seriously.Theodore next to him raised his head and looked at her expectantly.

"Not at all."

She lowered her head again and began to write furiously.

"Hey, are you planning to use this to get the professor's attention?" Pansy asked in a sneaky whisper, "You two have been like this since you failed in your confession, and you want to use this to break the deadlock between you?"

Rong Jiu let out a long sigh.She just wanted to write a good thesis. Why did Pan Xifei choose this time to discuss this topic with her?

"Miss Parkinson, your imagination can allow you to write novels, which are guaranteed to be popular in the wizarding world." Rong Jiu said seriously.

"But, I don't understand, why?" Blaise poked his head over, his partner was Daphne, "Don't you girls like to show off in this kind of occasion? But it's not a good show without a partner. "

Rong Jiu became even more irritable, and simply put down her pen: "I just think it's unacceptable to dance so intimately with a boy I don't like."

Blaise yelled out of fear of chaos: "Oh~ then how could you accept dancing with Draco at that time?"

"We are so familiar, okay, I don't think of him as a boy anymore." Rong Jiu pouted, "Besides, I couldn't help but not dance at that time."

Theodore then asked, "So you don't have anyone you want to dance with?"

Rong Jiu felt that these people were really annoying, so it didn't matter to them whether he had a dance partner or not?But still patiently said: "It's not important, I just don't want to dance."

After speaking, he turned the book again.

"But isn't Draco teaching you how to dance every night?" Theodore didn't understand what she meant, moved towards her, and continued to ask, "It doesn't look like you don't want to dance."

Rong Jiu took a deep breath.She felt that she might really be unable to bear it.

She raised her head and said with a smirk: "Well, what I just said is nonsense. Actually, I like women. I can't invite girls to dance together, but I don't want to let it go."

After finishing speaking, she put away the book in her hand and strode towards her bedroom.

On Christmas Day, the girls didn't even have dinner and went back to dress up.Pansy has been tossing since noon, and even the shape of her toenails has been modified harshly.As a result, she had already finished everything at around five o'clock, and without doing anything, she simply pulled up Rong Jiu who was leaning on the bed and reading a book, and began to torment her.

"I said, what's the point? No one will stare at my toes!" Rong Jiu broke down for the 120th time, "I don't have a partner, please dear, who am I dressing up for?"

"Come on, Draco told me." Pansy winked at her. "He taught you to dance to invite the professor, right?"

Rong Jiu's face was instantly redder than ever.

"Tsk tsk tsk, look at your little expression." Pan Xi joked, "If those people know that you declined their invitation because of the professor, I don't know how they will react."

"I'm putting all my eggs in one basket." Rong Jiu stared at the ceiling and smiled wryly, "Perhaps, if I fail again this time, I will give up. After all, there are only three things to do."

"What's more than three... Oh don't move, don't talk, let me finish here."

Rong Jiu had a good temper and let Pan Xi toss her body, after all, no one would object to making himself look better, right?The two girls chatted while (being) dressed up, until seven twenty, when Draco was about to explode, the two of them were done.

When Pansy came down the stairs, Draco had an unabashed surprise in his eyes.She was wearing a light pink gown full of frills, the neckline was slightly low, just revealing a slight gully, and the skirt spread from the waist, revealing the good figure usually hidden in the wizard's robe.

"Does it look good?" She asked coquettishly.

Draco smiled and replied, "Very beautiful."

Pansy put his hand into Draco's arm with a smile, and held it tightly.Due to her short stature, she looked as if she was hanging on Draco.

Today's Draco is also very handsome, just like on the day of the World Cup, his hair and face have been carefully groomed - Rong Jiu imagined the scene where he and Blaise were tossing each other in the dormitory like she and Pansy , almost laughed out loud - wearing a black velvet high-necked gown, although a little less neat, but more elegant.

"I said, you still look better in the one you wore on the day of the World Cup." Rong Jiu laughed.

Draco looked up and couldn't help but whistle.

Although Rong Jiu is of mixed race, his facial features are more oriental and soft. He wears a uniform wizard robe on weekdays, which makes people not feel too much, but today he changed into a high-necked beige tight-fitting gown. And elegant lining is more obvious.

Although she herself is tall and tall, her frame is extremely small.With this in mind, Narcissa added some elements when customizing the gown for her. The pattern of the same color climbed from the hem of the skirt to the waist, which is different from Panxi's enchanting. There is a subtle beauty in it, like a winter day An early plum blooming in the garden, trembling on the branch, looks soft and beautiful, but is actually strong and proud.

Narcissa's vision has to be said to be very vicious, beautifying Rong Jiu's oriental blood to the extreme, covering up her relative shortcomings.In addition, Pansy, who is used to the Malfoy family, also has excellent aesthetics, so she put on a light makeup to highlight her softness and elegance.

"It's a pity." Draco said as if regretting, "Such a beauty has no partner tonight, it's a waste of money."

Rong Jiu shrugged: "At least others won't think that I don't have a dance partner because of my ugliness."

At this time, Theodore came out of the bedroom, wearing a dark green robe.Pansy saw him sharply and said, "Hey, Theodore, where's your partner? Waiting for you outside?"

"No, I don't have a partner." Theodore smiled, but his eyes drifted to Rong Jiu involuntarily.

She is so beautiful.

"Hey, Cassie, you still don't have a partner?" Theodore greeted with an effort to be calm, "How about..."

"Yeah, I don't want to find a dance partner." Rong Jiu blocked his words lightly, "I'm not joking."

"Yeah." Theodore was a little disappointed.He saw with his own eyes that boys from Durmstrang and Beauxbatons came to invite her. Their looks and other things were pretty good, but they were also rejected by Rong Jiu.It's not that she can't find a partner.

"But at the beginning, we can stand together." Rong Jiu offered a compromise, "Maybe this way, you can escape the professor's punishment."

"Aren't you afraid?" Theodore's heart tightened when he heard her talking about the professor like this.

"Oh, don't be afraid." Rong Jiu repeated disapprovingly, "Can he still eat me?"

The author has something to say:

I checked, and there seem to be many categories of western robes, such as French robes and Greek robes, etc., which are also related to different ages... The original book describes the robes. Except for the descriptions in the original book, the others are free to play according to the data map. up.I checked the information, but I don't know if it's right--let's just wait and see.
