Chapter 178 You seem to have a girlfriend
Seeing that Regulus didn't care about this issue, Jiang Li didn't say anything more.
After all, Regulus is not in good physical condition now, and his personality is not like James and Sirius, so Jiang Li is not worried that he will be discovered if he sneaks out.
When he woke up the next day, James and Sirius were still asleep. Jiang Li guessed that it was probably because the dosage of the sleeping potion was too high.
Jiang Li attended classes as usual, but the atmosphere in the school became a little subtle.
In the public corridor, Jiang Li saw Lupin walking alone towards the classroom with a book in his hand.
When people around him met him, they all avoided him with fear and disgust in their eyes.
The old portraits hanging on the wall had the characters' eyes fixed on Lupin as they whispered to each other.
"Is this the werewolf? Oh! Dumbledore is really old and confused. He actually allowed a werewolf to sneak into Hogwarts. He simply doesn't take the safety of students seriously."
"Hey, don't say that. I think this kid is a good kid. Before, my portrait was distorted by Peeves, and it was he who helped me fix it. He will be sad to hear such excessive words."
"That's because he hasn't turned into a werewolf yet. If he did, the first thing that would be destroyed would be your portrait, you giant monster head."
"What? You dare to scold me!"
"What's wrong with scolding you, you idiot...what are you doing, get out of my frame, it hurts, stop it!"
The characters in the portrait started arguing and fighting, pulling each other's hair in a very ungraceful manner.
Peeves' body floated out from the wall to watch the fun and cheered for the portrait.
Lupin has tried hard to adjust his mentality and not care about some people.
But the looks in those people's eyes were as real as substance, making him feel uncomfortable. He mustered up his courage and said hello to the boy with whom he had a good relationship.
"Good morning, Rod."
When the other person saw him greeting him, he just turned around and walked away as if he didn't see him.
Lupin's raised hand froze in the air, as if a basin of cold water had been poured over his head. His whole body was cold, and the light in his eyes gradually disappeared.
Peeves spotted Lupin, who was isolated by the crowd, and flew towards him, whistling.
"Hey, hey, isn't this the famous werewolf Lupin? Why are you here alone? Why don't your two friends who usually follow you play with you? Are they afraid of you too?"
He followed Lupin in a sly manner and said in a naughty and loud voice: "How pitiful, no one wants to be your friend..."
Before he could finish his words, a hurricane came and blew Peeves away.
His screams were still floating in the wind.
Lupin looked at Jiang Li who was helping him in surprise.
Jiang Li looked at him and said slowly: "Next time you meet Peeves, if you don't want to listen to him, just chase him away."
"Professor, thank you."
Lupin said with eyes full of gratitude.
Seeing his silly look, Jiang Li couldn't bear to look at him, and asked slowly: "Are you going to the Transfiguration class?"
"Yes," Lupin replied quickly.
"I'm looking for Professor McGonagall. Let's go together." Jiang Li said naturally.
Hearing this, Lupin breathed a sigh of relief and walked beside Jiang Li, feeling that the gazes of those people disappeared.
He felt particularly reassured having the professor standing next to him.
"You don't need to care about what those people are saying. You haven't done anything wrong."
A deep male voice sounded beside me.
Lupin realized that it was Jiang Li who was talking to him, and quickly replied: "I'm fine. In fact, I can understand everyone's thoughts. Werewolves are indeed very scary. I'm used to it."
Before he entered Hogwarts, everyone around him looked at him like this.
After staying in Hogwarts for so long, he almost forgot that he was not a normal wizard.
"This is not something that we like. Kind people always like to take other people's problems on themselves." Jiang Li said slowly.
It was the first time Lupin had heard such words.
He was slightly startled and asked, "Isn't it good to be kind?"
"There is nothing wrong with being kind, but it should not be used as a weapon by others to hurt you." Jiang Li looked at Lupin gently.
Lupin was silent, as if thinking.
Jiang Li did not disturb him, and the two walked quietly.
"Severus, this is a gift I prepared for you, do you like it?"
A girl's clear voice came from the front.
Jiang Li and Lupin both subconsciously looked towards the voice.
At the door of the Transfiguration classroom, a cute Slytherin girl stood in front of Snape.
The girl was holding a bouquet of bright roses in her hand, Snape's image was reflected in her eyes, and her face was flushed with shyness.
"This should be Snape's fiancée. It's a pity that Professor Malfoy didn't have the chance to see their wedding."
Lupin looked at this scene and said with regret.
Jiang Li:?
She didn't even know when Snape changed his fiancée.
Seeing Jiang Li's surprise, Lupin explained very considerately: "Hasn't it been rumored before who Snape's fiancée is? After observing for a long time, everyone thinks his fiancée is Vina Philip.
And the Slytherin students seemed to have asked Vina about this matter, and Vina acquiesced to it, but Snape was relatively low-key and didn't want to show off their relationship, so everyone tacitly kept it to themselves to avoid Vina's embarrassment. "
As he said this, Lupin's eyes were filled with envy.
Jiang Li: “…” That’s quite romantic.
"I don't want your stuff."
Snape looked at Vina impatiently, "Didn't I tell you that I'm not what you think I am? Don't bother me anymore."
Vina looked at Snape with tenderness in her eyes. She felt that even when he cursed, there was still a certain charm in his words. He was indeed her favorite character.
"Maybe you don't believe in my feelings now, but I will use time to prove to you that my feelings for you are real."
She looked at Snape with deep affection, and handed him the rose stubbornly, "I know you told others that you already have a fiancée in order to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Don't worry, I will never tell anyone your secret, and I hope you can give me a chance, I really like you."
After Vina's long-term observation, she found that there were no girls around Snape at all. It was very likely that he said that just to fool others.
Snape was so angry that he almost laughed. What on earth was going on in this girl's head?
"Your mind is like a bowl of potion that has been disturbed by a troll. It is chaotic and illogical."
He looked at Vina with disgust and said in a cold voice: "Who told you that I don't have a fiancée? Don't speculate about my affairs with your disgusting mind."
Vina had known that he had a sharp tongue, but she was not angry. She smiled sweetly and said, "How about we team up in the next Potions class? Little Barty is not a good person at all. You should not be in the same group with him."
These days, Snape has been teaming up with Barty Jr. and the Slytherin boys, and she can't find any chance to spend time with Snape.
Seeing that she seemed not to understand what he was saying, Snape could hardly bear it anymore and wanted to curse her.
"Is there no one else in Hogwarts?" He frowned and glanced at Vina coldly, "I won't team up with you, find someone else. I don't like people like you."
He turned around and was about to leave when he saw Lupin and Jiang Li standing not far away.
Snape: "..."
Jiang Lizheng looked at him with a smile and said teasingly, "It seems that our Mr. Snape is going to have a girlfriend."
For some reason, Snape suddenly felt guilty and said immediately, "No, listen to me..."
Before he finished speaking, Vina caught up with him, took Snape's arm, and smiled mischievously at Jiang Li and Lupin.
"I've been discovered by you guys, don't tell this secret to anyone else~"
Jiang Li: 6
