Chapter 20 Relations eased
Ever since that midnight trip to the restricted area, Jian Yu suddenly felt that more people came to see her.
This made her a little annoyed.
She hated dealing with so many people. For a socially anxious person, too much socializing will consume her own energy.
This forced her to sleep more to recharge herself.
Among those who came to see her were not only Slytherin classmates, but even the Gryffindor protagonists.
Harry Potter is one of them.
After every class held between the Snake and Lion Colleges, he would look at her as if he wanted to say something but was hesitant.
His good brother Ron would always look at her with an expression as if he had eaten booger-smelling Beebe Every Flavour Beans, and he and Harry would look at her together.
Being targeted by the protagonists is not a good thing, Jian Yu thought, and honestly moved away from them.
Only Harry with a depressed look on his face and Ron with a wrinkled face were left.
Among those who came to speak to her from her college was Theodore Nott.
He would take the initiative to sit next to her in class.
Fortunately, the boy was not a talkative person and was good at Potions, so Jian Yu could tolerate him.
All of the above people follow basic social etiquette.
But unfortunately some people's behavior can be described as harassment.
That's Draco Malfoy.
He spent significantly more time sitting in the common room. When he saw Jane Yu leaving, he would inadvertently pass by her and loudly boast to Goyle and Crabbe about what candies his family had sent him and how precious their collections were. He also slandered poor Weasley and Scarhead Potter...
When she went out alone with her books to attend class, Draco and his followers would always follow her not too far away, keeping a distance at which she could just hear their conversation.
Jian Yu really doesn't want to listen to a little brat bragging every day!
But every time she turned around to argue with Draco, he pretended nothing had happened, walked past her faster, and walked in front of her to keep the same distance.
What the hell is going on?
Jian Yu thought so.
"Professor Snape went to see Dumbledore and made an exception to admit me into the house team."
"When my father found out, he not only praised me, but also said he would send me a 2,000 yuan gift!"
"He also said he would donate one to each member of the hospital team!"
At the dinner table, Draco was beaming with joy, showing off to the little snakes around him.
As he said these words, his eyes kept glancing in Jian Yu's direction.
But seeing that she didn't even raise her head and was concentrating on cutting the roast chicken on the plate, he couldn't help but purse his lips.
Dozens of long-eared owls swarmed into the auditorium, carrying eight long and thin packages, attracting the attention of all students. The owls dispersed in front of the long table. Several owls threw a package in front of Harry, while other owls threw another seven packages beside the Slytherin table, almost knocking over Jane's roast chicken.
The packages were opened, revealing mahogany broom handles with graceful and lustrous lines, and long tails made of neat, straight branches. They were exactly seven neatly arranged Nimbus 2000s - a gift from Lucius Malfoy to his son.
Slytherin Quidditch captain Marcus Flint came to him personally, congratulated him, shook his hand, and thanked the Malfoy family for their generous sponsorship.
This made Draco so proud that he didn't know what to do.
He glanced at Jian Yu again - she was still eating roast chicken quietly!
Eat eat eat!
Is she the reincarnation of a starving ghost?
This is his big day, why don't you come and congratulate him!
Draco was filled with resentment, and he decided to direct his anger towards Harry Potter.
"Potter!" He held his head high, like a proud and proud rooster, walked to the Gryffindor table and snatched the package from Harry's hand.
"A broom." He squeezed it and threw the package back on the table. "What model is this, Sweeping Seven Stars? This is the only rag you deserve, bastard."
Ron jumped up immediately. "This is a Nimbus 2000! Malfoy, what did you say you had at home? A Comet 260? It's not even on the same level as a Nimbus!"
His words hit the spot exactly where Draco wanted them to.
Draco turned around to look at his two followers and snapped his fingers gently. They panted and stood beside him, carrying the seven Nimbus 2000s.
"Take a good look, Weasley, I guess the most wealth you have ever seen in your life is here." Draco retorted with a victorious smile on his face: "I guess you and your brothers can't collect enough branches in a year!"
Harry and Ron stared at the seven shining Nimbus 2000s in amazement.
Oliver Wood, their house captain, looked almost fainting.
The Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff Quidditch players also noticed the seven shiny brooms.
"Merlin's stinky socks!" they wailed. "Seven Nimbus 2000s!"
"It looks like Slytherin will be the champion of this year's Quidditch tournament again!"
Amid the shock of the three major colleges and the flattery of his Slytherin classmates, Draco felt himself drifting.
He felt that Jian Yu would be so excited that her cheeks would be red, and she would look at him with admiration. When he returned to the long table, she would send him congratulations and become his follower from now on... He could also naturally pity her and give her a seat next to him...
Just imagining it made him feel proud and comfortable.
He glanced confidently towards Jian Yu's seat.
But I found that there was no one there!
His little face immediately fell.
......
Jian Yu had already left the table after finishing his meal.
She also had to go to Snape's office for detention.
Recently, she has committed two taboos in a row. One is that she has not done anything to advance her plan to drop out of school for several days, and the other is that she accidentally ran into Harry and others in the restricted area and did not abide by the rule of staying away from the protagonist group.
I must reflect on myself deeply, she thought.
Learn from the painful experience.
She decided to push forward her plan of dropping out of school during this confinement.
