公交车挺进艳妇

Chapter 619: Christmas

Her character and honest Neville were complementary and unexpected, but they were unable to talk together. Neville could go with her to attend the Yule Ball.

In Evan’s opinion, Harry, Neville, and Colin’s partner selections were fairly simple.

The most troublesome thing was that for Ron, at this point in time, there were not many choices left to him.

Ron was one of the champions; he must have a partner to open the ball.

According to his standards, the champion had to find a beautiful girl to save face.

After Hermione made an investigation among the girls, they focused on Parvati Patil and Lavender Brown.

No need to say much about Parvati, who was a beautiful Indian girl with black hair. In Dean Thomas’s words, she was one of the best-looking girls in the fourth year.

Lavender looked a little bit less beautiful. She was a little neurotic, but she was very cheerful and open, and she liked Divination very much.

Most crucially, she probably really liked Ron, and initiative was more important than anything else.

In this way, Ron’s partner was determined as Lavender.

Evan, whether it was appropriate or not, put them together after candidates had been identified.

He and Hermione were helping to make the best use of existing resources in light of the current situation.

It was just about picking a dance partner. It was not really looking for a boyfriend or girlfriend.

At the level of Harry, Ron, Neville, and Colin, there might not be a suitable candidate until the beginning of the ball.

Sure enough, Harry and Ron didn’t seem quite satisfied with Evan and Hermione’s arrangements. But in the end, they could only agree, because they had no other choice at all.

Harry later told Evan alone, he thought that this ball was a lot trouble than it was worth.

Ron, as a champion, if he hadn’t initially targeted Fleur, he wouldn’t have reached this point.

The same was true of Harry, who had always been very popular at school and was more popular with girls than he thought. If his eyes had not always been on Cho, he would have been able to find a partner very easily.

As for Neville and Colin, they had the same purpose. They needed a partner, no matter who they were.

Neville didn’t want to be left alone. Colin just wanted to go to the ball. The two of them didn’t have a girl in mind at all.

If Evan could convince Eloise Midgen, they would be willing to accept it.

On the girls’ side, Luna probably shared the same thoughts as the two of them.

Ginny and Lavender had other purposes, and they secretly had a crush on Harry and Ron, respectively.

This match was probably the best outcome for them.

As for Gabrielle, she was just helping Colin get into the ball. Evan knew that Gabrielle had a good impression of him and liked him.

Looking at Fleur’s expression, he thought that after he and Hermione confessed, Gabrielle might be very sad, just like all the girls who lost love.

But that was not the case at all. After learning the news, Gabrielle came to congratulate him directly, complaining that Evan did not express his love to Hermione before her. Gabrielle’s affection for Evan was not quite of the type that he had imagined…

In fact Evan admitted he’s gone too far in his thoughts. For a nine-year-old, this reaction might be the most normal. If she had reacted like Fleur or Cho, that would be abnormal.

In short, Evan persuaded Gabrielle to help Colin at the cost of having to dance with her for his second dance. The first dance, of course, would be with Hermione.

In this way, the hard task of choosing partners for everyone finally came to an end.

Despite the very heavy load of homework that the teachers had arranged for the Christmas holidays, no one was in the mood to work when term ended.

Even Hermione, who rarely put down her textbooks, played with everyone.

Evan also stopped studying ancient magic scripts, the Merpeople’s language and demons, and completely relaxed.

The Gryffindor Tower was hardly less crowded now than during term-time, and only a few junior students chose to go home.

In fact, the tower seemed to have shrunk, as its inhabitants were being so much rowdier than usual.

Fred and George had great success with their Canary Creams, and for the first couple of days of the holidays, people kept bursting into feather all over the place. Before long, however, all the Gryffindors learned to treat food anybody else offered them with extreme caution, in case it had a Canary Cream concealed in the center.

Fred and George confided to Evan that they were now working on new deformation products.

They were going to expand this series to give the eater a variety of animal forms.

From the second day of the holidays, snow was falling thickly upon the castle and its grounds.

The pale blue Beauxbatons carriage looked like a large, chilly, frosted pumpkin next to the iced gingerbread house that was Hagrid’s cabin, while the Durmstrang ship’s portholes were glazed with ice, rigging white with frost.

The house elves were outdoing themselves with a series of rich, warming stews and savory puddings, and only Fleur Delacour seemed to be able to find anything to complain about.

After Evan and Hermione made their confession, Fleur’s attitude towards Evan had become very poor.

Even if it wasn’t for sure, Evan was suspicious that the girl had a secret crush on him…

According to Gabrielle, Fleur’s last choice for a partner was Roger Davies, the Ravenclaw Quidditch Captain.

He was a popular figure at Ravenclaw House, a good athlete, with excellent magic power.

The Ravenclaw Quidditch team’s tactical design had always been excellent, and a large part of it was his credit.

Roger was a little bit behind Cedric Diggory, but his overall level was still higher than that of other students of the same year.

Of course, Fleur had no feelings for him. She and Ron had the same criteria for choosing a partner, that was, to find the one who had the prettiest face among those who were willing to accept them. She didn’t care what the other person really thought.

On Christmas morning, Evan woke up early.

He just opened his eyes and saw something with very large, round, green eyes, staring back at him in the darkness, so close they were almost nose to nose.
