Chapter 60 Companionship Is the Longest Confession

The warriors danced, followed by the formal ball.Many normally inconspicuous girls have become amazing today, for example, Hermione, as Krum's dance partner, was so amazing that Draco almost gritted his teeth for it.As for Cedric, another Hogwarts warrior, his dance partner seems to have oriental blood, is a member of the Ravenclaw Quidditch team, and is also amazingly beautiful.

But this has nothing to do with Rong Jiu, at the beginning of the dance, she found a corner and leisurely held a glass of beautiful-looking drink, but in fact, it was a glass of fruit wine with quite a lot of stamina.But she didn't know, she was still sipping it in small sips, staring at the floor in a daze.

Before the first song of the Warriors was over, Snape disappeared.He didn't look at Slytherin at all.

Moreover, there were other things that made her mood worse all the time.

"Beautiful lady, I wonder if I have the honor to invite you to dance?"

"Uh, no, I'm sorry, I'm a little uncomfortable, maybe next time I have a chance."

After three or four rejections in a row, Rong Jiu finally couldn't sit still.Anyway, the professor wasn't there, so she simply left her seat and planned to go for a stroll outside.

Walking through the foyer and down the steps, the fairy light in the rose garden is flickering, surrounded by low bushes, ornately decorated winding paths and huge stone statues, which looks a bit pleasing to the eye.Rong Jiu's mood also improved a bit, she chose one at random, and walked forward.

As a result, within a few steps, there were footsteps in front, and there seemed to be more than one.First, a young couple ran past her one after another. The girl seemed to be still crying, and the boy chased after her.But before she could see clearly, two more people turned out from the front.

Is there such a coincidence?

Rong Jiu seemed to be under the spell of petrification and dared not move.

Even though he changed his clothes through the night and across this path, it didn't confuse anything.

It was Snape.

He hurried towards her and stopped when he saw her.There was a person behind him, talking to him, muttering: "Severus, listen to me..." Then he also stopped in surprise.

"Igor, I still have some things to deal with." Snape stared at Rong Jiu, frowning, "We'll talk about this matter another day."

Rong Jiu recognized this person——Igor Karkaroff, the headmaster of Durmstrang, but he didn't know why he had something to do with Professor Snape—glared at Rong Jiu fiercely, and strode forward Walk past her.

"What are you doing here?" Snape walked up to her with a very bad expression on his face, looking down at her, "Because someone said something again?"

Rong Jiu pinched his palm hard, trying to calm himself down.She felt a little dizzy: "No, Professor. I don't have a partner, so I came out for a walk."

"No partner?" Snape rolled his eyes around her, "You don't seem to take what I said seriously."

"I just..." Rong Jiu bit her lip, "I just couldn't invite the ideal dance partner."

"Oh?" Snape raised an eyebrow.

"I've grown taller, not a little bit." Rong Jiu raised his head and looked straight into his black eyes bravely, "Do you remember? You said before, maybe I will grow a little taller. Now, I can invite you, Will you be my dance partner?"

Snape's lips moved.

He really remembered, and remembered clearly.

At that time, this girl was still a child, she looked extremely cute, her height was only up to his stomach, she raised her head angrily and stared at him.But in the past two years, she has grown so rapidly, and now she has reached his chin, already, she can stand in front of him.

Also, she is much prettier.

He had countless words that could block her back, but for some reason, at this moment, he couldn't say a single word.

Such a beautiful girl should be invited by many people, right?She resisted the pressure and refused all of them. Why?

He couldn't pretend he didn't know.

"You can dance?" He hardened his heart and mocked, "Last time, Malfoy's shoes were trampled by you..."

"I have something to learn!" Rong Jiu replied loudly, while involuntarily taking a step forward to bring them closer, "I've been studying every night this semester!"

The fragrance from her body came over again, sweet and unique.He seemed to smell a faint smell of blood. I don't know if it was his illusion, or the shock in his memory of this child rushing forward to block him without thinking about himself?

Snape lowered his eyes.

Rong Jiu's body was tense, like a bow and arrow ready to go, and she was the bowstring.If stretched for a long time, it will only hurt herself.But she still wants to do it...

"If you step on me, you just hope your antidote works," Snape said in a low voice.

The moment his words fell, the eyes of the person in front of him widened unbelievably. They were obviously long and narrow red phoenix eyes, but they were forced into round almond eyes by her. Joy was like gorgeous fireworks in her eyes like the night sky. exploded.

Then, she burst out laughing.

"I'm sorry, Professor." Rong Jiu lowered her head, but she could still see that her eyes were crescent moons.This kind of smile used to hang on her face often, but it disappeared for a long time, and when it reappeared, it made people's hearts soften, "I just think that this sentence sounds familiar."

Snape grimaced: "So you're reminding me that you don't have a partner today?"

"I have." Rong Jiu smiled slyly, and seeing that Snape's face was turning black, he quickly changed the topic: "Uh, are we... going back to the auditorium?"

Snape snorted, his disgust was very obvious: "On your level?" He turned around and left.

Rong Jiu hurriedly followed.Going forward along this path, turning a corner, there is a relatively large open space, where you can hear the sound of splashing water and the faint sound of music.

Snape bent slightly, and held out his hand.

Rong Jiu tremblingly put his hand up.He was pulled forward by a gentle force, and then, his waist warmed up, and the other hand was held.That hand was very rough, probably caused by years of working with potions, but it was so generous and warm.

It's like dreaming.

With the faint music, they danced in this small open space.They were so close, breathing intertwined, that they could see their own shadows in each other's pupils.The faint smell of potion and gardenia swirled together, and the beige hem and the black corner of the robe chased each other.

Snape lowered his head slightly.Even though the light was not bright, he could see that the tip of Rong Jiu's ears and cheeks had turned red, as if dyed by the roses in the bushes, but she still raised her head bravely and met his gaze, with It is full of dependence and joy, and with the rotation and stretching, it is even tinged with a bit of charm.

If there are bystanders, you can find that these two people dance so well.

Snape thought he had forgotten how to dance, even though he had learned it for five full years.

Back then, though there was no Triwizard Tournament, he knew there would be a prom.For this, he paid a lot of money and secretly learned these so-called idle things. He just hoped that he could invite Lily to dance a dance at the graduation prom. He was afraid that he would lose face in front of her if he could not dance well enough.

At that time, he could also tell her his heart.

But then, she was with that Potter.

So that dance was not completed after all.

He didn't know whether he was moved by the persistence and fragility in the eyes of the child in front of him, or by her similar intentions.And this dance, is it to fulfill her, or to fulfill him at the other end of time?

As the music came to an end, the reluctance in Rong Jiu's eyes became more and more intense, and the hand holding Snape became more and more forceful, until he frowned slightly.But neither of them spoke, as if there was no such thing.

The song is over.

Rong Jiu actually let go of his hand first, took a step back, and asked softly: "Is your answer still the same?"

Her hands were twisted together nervously behind her back.

Snape didn't answer.

"Even...even if it's just company? I don't want to watch from afar." Rong Jiu's tone was almost pleading, "I know, Dumbledore...he told me everything."

Snape's complexion suddenly became extremely ugly, with storm and anger brewing in his eyes.

Rong Jiu felt that his finger hurt, as if he had been pinched by himself, but he had no time to think about it. He closed his eyes, as if he could deny the unhappiness of the person in front of him, and said quickly: "I told him, I will follow Yours, no matter what you're doing. I came here alone, you gave me the strength of independent courage that single-handedly brought me to where I am today. No matter what the standpoint, I don't ask for anything , really, I just... hope to be by your side. Even if, even if you don't agree, I will do as I want, but you know, sometimes I don't have enough brains, and it's a trivial matter to put myself in, It would be serious if you ruined any of your plans...I'm not threatening you, I'm just stating a fact. I really just want to be with you, stand by your side, and I don't want anything else ..."

Rong Jiu spoke incoherently, but in fact she didn't know what she said.Her eyelashes trembled very violently, and her voice was a little choked up when she spoke.After saying these words, she bit her teeth fiercely on her lips, and there were bloodshots soon, which showed her inner anxiety and courage to break the boat.

After a long time, the songs in my ears changed four or five.Rong Jiu almost wanted to open her eyes to see if she was the only one left here.At this time, Snape spoke with a hoarse voice: "You know everything?"

"Yes."

"Even so, do you still think so?"

"Yes."

"Do you know what a dangerous road this is?"

"Yes."

"Your family, your birth gate, you haven't even looked for it?"

Rong Jiu said in a low voice: "Do you believe in fate? It says that my birth gate is here, so it must be here. Maybe I avoided all struggles, and ended up being crushed to death by a flower pot that fell from upstairs; maybe I was in the The center of the struggle, but out of all the vortex. It's so unpredictable. I'm not sure where it is, if I can find it, but I can be sure what I want to do. If I don't do it, the rest of my life will be in In remorse, even if you find the door of life, what's the point?"

Another long silence.

"I don't want to see you stand in my way again, understand?" Snape said wearily.

"I..." Rong Jiu thought it was a refusal, lowered his head, opened his eyes, and looked at his toes, "Maybe, there is no way..."

"I promise you."

Rong Jiu raised his head in surprise.

Snape's expression was very serious: "But, I won't allow you to stand in front of me again, do you understand? I have something to do, and I don't need others to do anything for me."

Rong Jiu held his breath in his chest and couldn't breathe out no matter what.

Did she just hallucinate?

"Put down your stupid expression!" Snape said impatiently.But this time, there was more discomfort in his voice, "Answer my question, are you deaf?"

"I'm willing!" Rong Jiu almost shouted, but was glared at by Snape, she quickly lowered her voice, and repeated, "I'm willing!"

"Then..."

In the middle of speaking, that soft body bumped into his arms again, directly knocking away the rest of his words.

Snape lowered his head, looking at the child's joyful face, with a hint of bewilderment in his eyes.But soon, he felt a wetness in his chest.

He froze for a moment, sighed silently, the expression on his face softened, he put his hand on her head, and rubbed it gently.

Then, hug tightly.

She was so thin, it seemed as if he could break her with a little more force.But she was braver, more tolerant, and more courageous than him.

He raised his head and looked at the night sky above his head, with a few stars hanging on it, which always reminded him of the girl with green eyes.

I just hope that his momentary soft-heartedness will not bring disaster to this child.

Hopefully, none of them will regret today.

The author has something to say:

I'm finally writing here... it seems a bit abrupt, because after talking to Dumbledore according to my plan, it will seem more logical ah orz but it's okay to spread your hands, of course it's not love for the professor, but whoever Well, getting the body first and then the heart isn't this a routine of the domineering president? 【What seems wrong?

Gardenia's flower language is to wait for a lifetime.I think it is quite suitable for character setting, um.

In fact, everyone knows that girls seldom have deodorant—even if they do, it’s not too strong. You can think of this as the scent of shower gel or shampoo. I think this is relatively strong. I don’t need to wear perfume every time I go out. , because the smell of the shampoo is strong enough.

Oh, in addition, I really don’t know how to dance in foreign dance clubs. I learned Latin dance, so I followed that routine -0- and my dance partner told me that my eyes would change when I danced. God knows what I did at that time How did he look charming when he was only in junior high school?Oh yes, my dance partner was older than me at that time, lol.

The last day of the double change 2333 Emma is debt-free and light-hearted.But if you are in a good mood, there will be double updates from time to time!

In addition, the college entrance examination is going to come on, waste bug, come on~
