Hogwarts Homecoming

Chapter 701 Furong’s twisted thoughts

Furong is using me?

Harry felt that his mind, which had been numbed by alcohol, was quickly regaining consciousness. He blinked and glared at Hermione, who had a serious face, and confusion surged from the bottom of his heart like a tide.

"Oh, come on, Hermione, you said Fleur invited Harry to the ball to take advantage of him, but what does she want to take advantage of Harry for?--"

Harry's joining allowed Ron to regain his 'condition'. He looked at Hermione suspiciously and questioned,

"Are you jealous? I know that Furong is not very popular with girls. You think she is too beautiful and takes away the limelight from you guys--"

Harry also immediately looked at Hermione, his face full of innocence.

"Jealous, is that how you see it, Weasley?!"

Hermione seemed so angry at Ron's remarks that she even regretted the impulsive decision she made in the foyer tonight because of a sudden thought. She tilted her head and glared at Ron with strong eyes. , lips pursed tightly.

Ron, who felt that a disaster was imminent, immediately stopped talking and secretly gave Harry a hint.

"Hermione--"

Harry considered his words carefully.

"I don't quite understand what Ron said, eh, what does Fleur want to use me for?"

"Good question, Harry--"

Hermione looked away from Ron and lowered her face to face Harry.

"When she extended the invitation to you, didn't you think about why she did it? Oh, don't listen to her nonsense, Harry, over a plate of fish soup and directions?"

Harry immediately wanted to add something, but Hermione continued,

"Do you really think that the girl doesn't know that the dress you gave him was bought by Professor Blaine? Oh, Harry, don't be stupid, you underestimate the girl's thoughts!"

Ron was still squinting at Hermione, wanting to hear what insights she was about to express, while Harry kept blinking, his expression becoming more and more puzzled.

How did Fleur know that the dress was given by Professor Blaine? If that was the case, why would Fleur invite him? Apart from the few times they met, they didn't even speak much.

"What do you think of Fleur's final request to you, Harry?" Hermione said coldly.

"What?"

Harry asked subconsciously, and then he remembered that before they were called away by Professor McGonagall on their first night, Fleur, who knew they were about to meet Professor Dumbledore and Professor Blaine, asked him to help deliver a message to Professor Blaine. Communicate that they are going to be dance partners.

Harry was indeed confused about this, but at that time his attention was attracted by the fact that the two professors called him, Hermione and Ron cultural, and he did not think about it any further. Now, after Hermione's reminder, Harry Leigh did feel weird. What did this matter have to do with Professor Blaine? Why did Fleur want him to tell Professor Blaine?

"Fleur once invited Professor Blaine to attend the dance, but Professor Blaine refused."

Hermione finally dropped what she'd been asking about.

The two boys beside her also showed surprised expressions as she expected, and Ron almost fell off the sofa.

"Fleur invited Professor Blaine to the ball but was rejected. Oh, this is incredible. Where did you find out, Hermione?"

Ron propped himself up on the sofa with his hands and sat back down. He looked at Hermione dumbfounded and asked in a low voice.

"Many girls know about this-"

Hermione pursed her lips and looked at Ron,

"And you boys don't care about this at all. You are only thinking about finding a beautiful girl to go to the prom with!"

Ron shrank his head in embarrassment. To be honest, Hermione couldn't be wrong.

"But this news"

Harry finally realized something was wrong and frowned, his cheeks tightening.

"I don't know if you have noticed that about a week ago, Fleur was not very happy for two days. Every time she came to the castle for class, she always had a cold face and said nothing." Looking at the blank faces of the two boys, Hermione snorted sarcastically, "You haven't noticed, oh, it's not surprising, the boys are just looking at her pretty face, right?"

"Hermione--" Harry shouted helplessly and a little dissatisfied.

"It was Parvati who told me, and Parvati heard it from her Ravenclaw sister, Parvati. You should know that the guests of Beauxbatons all follow the rules of Ravenclaw students. Classes were in session, and they—I mean, Padma and her friends all found out that Fleur was unhappy in those days, so they tried every means to find out what was wrong with her—"

"Oh, you girls are so boring--"

Ron blurted out subconsciously, and Harry nodded in approval. However, seeing Hermione's livid face, the two boys immediately became honest again.

"--They asked other people at Beauxbatons, but no one knew what happened,"

Hermione continued,

"Finally they found Fleur's sister, the little girl named Gabrielle. It took them a while to find out the matter from Gabrielle. Padma told Parvati the matter , and then, when she was discussing this matter with Lavender, I overheard her."

After saying this, Hermione's mood stabilized a lot. She looked at Harry calmly,

"So, do you understand, Harry?"

Well--

Harry and Ron looked at each other, neither daring to speak first.

Fleur invited Professor Blaine to attend the dance together and was rejected. This was indeed interesting, but what did this have to do with her inviting herself? Hermione said Fleur was using him.

Harry hesitated and didn't speak, and Hermione finally saw clearly that expecting him to figure out what the girl meant was purely her 'too beautiful' fantasy, so she said calmly,

"Fleur must have known Professor Blaine for a long time, and she has a crush on him, so she asked you where Professor Blaine's office is on her first day at Hogwarts.

I guess she didn't expect that Professor Blaine would refuse to attend the prom with her. Otherwise, she wouldn't be so angry, so she wanted to find a very famous person to go to the prom with, so that Blaine The professor realized that rejecting her was a wrong choice. "

Hermione expressed her opinion and let Harry and Ron understand why she was so angry at Harry for accepting Fleur's invitation, but they still couldn't understand it.

"Girls are so weird." Ron continued to frown, "But this is just your guess, isn't it, Hermione?"

Hermione just moved her lips but said nothing, as if she didn't bother to respond to Ron's question.

"If Fleur wants to find someone famous -" Harry frowned and said thoughtfully, "Why doesn't he go find someone?"

Harry originally wanted to say that Fleur could go find the champions of the Tournament, right? After all, they are the most popular boys at the moment, but then he thought about Cho Chang, and he was not willing to say Cedric's name from his mouth no matter what. .

"Krum has invited Daphne Greengrass to the ball-"

Hermione's sharp eyes glanced at the dimness in Harry's eyes. She seemed to have penetrated his mind, and calmly said another piece of news that shocked the two boys.

"Of course, the Warrior is indeed a better choice, but Fleur has no choice anymore, right? She can only choose between the Warrior, and apart from the Warrior, which boy in Hogwarts is better than you? What about fame, Harry?"

Harry had already somewhat accepted Hermione's statement. He sullenly stopped talking and felt his interest waning for a while.

First Cedric invited Cho Chang, and then Fleur invited him with the intention of 'provoking' Professor Blaine. These two things completely wiped out any of his expectations for the Yule Ball.

Harry's boredom caught Ron's eyes, and he rubbed his freckled nose.

"Perhaps you think too badly of Fleur, Hermione. From my point of view, this matter is very simple. Fleur was rejected by Professor Blaine, but she is a warrior and must find someone to attend the ball. She has a good impression of Harry. , so I invited him, it’s that simple--"

"Then how do you explain what Fleur asked Harry to convey to Professor Blaine?"

Hermione's question made Ron completely speechless.
