公交车挺进艳妇

Chapter 614: Rejection

Unfortunately, neither of them was old enough to attend the ball without the invitation of students from the fourth year or above.

That was the tradition, even if Gabrielle was a student of Beauxbatons, there was no exception.

As for Gabrielle’s sister Fleur, there were more and more boys around her recently.

Almost half of the boys who had no partners were waiting for Fleur’s choice. Maybe there were too many people for her to make a final decision.

Of course, with Evan’s understanding of Fleur, she might also feel it very interesting to do so.

Let the boys fall for her beauty; attract everyone’s attention, as well as the girls’ jealousy. No doubt she had really succeeded.

Even if she did choose who she was going to end up with, it was not really about him.

Affected by her Veela blood, Fleur was very similar to a Veela in when it came to treating men.

That is, before meeting someone they really liked, they would take the initiative to attract the attention of other men, but they would not be moved.

Men who are obsessed with Meiwa will forget everything in the world, do not eat or drink, and do not sleep. If, unfortunately, Veela joined them while dancing, they could only keep dancing until they finally die exhausted.

In history, the number of male wizards who died because of the charm of Veela is not at all negligible.

Of course, if she met a man she really liked, Veela would stay with him for a lifetime. She would never separate and would be very loyal.

It is inferred that Fleur’s mate selection criteria should be similar.

Evan did not see any of the boys in Hogwarts who could satisfy Fleur. She had higher standards.

When he led Gabrielle back a few nights ago, Fleur expressed her willingness to let Evan be her partner in a joking tone. Evan refused directly. He didn’t want to be fooled by Fleur like the boys in the school.

He and Harry and Ron spoke and walked over to Gabrielle.

“I don’t understand. Evan has so many choices, why must he insist on Hermione?” said Ron. “He has rejected many good girls these few days.”

His eyes followed Evan’s gaze and eventually landed on the Beauxbatons carriage.

“Hermione is actually good. Besides, they’ve been together for a long time, haven’t they?!” said Harry.

“No, I heard Ginny say that Hermione talked to her about this, and the two of them actually didn’t make any progress,” said Ron, continuing to stare at the Beauxbatons carriage, “You know, Hermione’s older than Evan and she is not that beautiful, she’s been hesitating.”

They had made rapid progress at the beginning, but flinched at a critical moment, especially Hermione.

Both Evan and Hermione were too smart. Sometimes it’s not a good thing to think too much.

“Let’s stop worrying about Evan and think more about ourselves,” Ron continued, “I never thought it would be so difficult to find a partner.”

The words that Hagrid had just said to them made Ron a little anxious. He didn’t want to be left alone without a partner.

If that was the case, it would be too shameful. He was a champion!

Look at other champions. Weren’t they all surrounded by a group of people?!

No need to say much about Krum. He was very famous, very popular with girls, and Ron admired him.

But even Diggory was the same. Although he did not act well in the first task, he was very handsome and popular. He was loved by almost everyone and many girls liked him. But in Ron’s opinion, Cedric was actually a useless handsome guy, and his brain was not enough to fill an egg shell.

“Yes, we have to do something, Ron. We don’t have much time left!” Harry said, determined, “especially you, Evan and I will not look too stupid without a partner, but you are supposed to be starting the dancing with the other champions.”

“You’re right, we’ve just got to grit our teeth and do it!” Ron took a deep breath and said in a tone that suggested they were planning the storming of an impregnable fortress. “When we get back to the Common Room tonight, we’ll all have partners … agreed?”

“Well, okay,” said Harry.

They were separated. Harry didn’t know who Ron was aiming for, but his head was full of Cho Chang.

He only needed to ask Cho for a word alone and invite her to the ball. It was as simple as that.

It was almost time for dinner when Evan separated from Gabrielle and returned to the castle.

He met Luna in the hall. Needless to say, she did not find a partner. But Luna didn’t care. She was not interested in the Yule Ball at all.

She gave Evan news that Harry had just invited Cho Chang to the ball at the Ravenclaw Tower, but he was turned down.

After Evan refused Cho, she accepted Cedric’s invitation.

It was conceivable that Harry would be very depressed now and needed comforting from others.

But when Evan walked into the Great Hall, he was surprised to see Ron sitting ashen-faced in a distant corner. Harry and Ginny were sitting with him, talking to him in what seemed to be a low, soothing voice.

There was a lot of noise in the Great Hall, and at the Slytherin’s long table, Malfoy pointed at Ron, as if laughing at him.

“What’s up, Ron?” Evan asked, and walked over to them three.

Ron looked up at Evan, a sort of blind horror in his face.

“Why did I do it?!” he said wildly. “I don’t know what made me do it!”

“What?!”

“He … um … he just asked Fleur Delacour to go to the ball with him,” said Harry.

Ginny nodded and looked as though she was fighting back a smile, but she kept patting Ron’s arm sympathetically.

“Even if Ron invited Fleur, why does he look like this?” Evan asked.

“I don’t know what made me do it!” said Ron, gasping. “What was I playing at? There are people … all around … I’ve gone mad … everyone was watching! I was just walking past her in the entrance hall … she was standing there talking to Diggory … and I sort of came over me … and I asked her!”
