Chapter 625: The Invitation to Dance and New Measures of the Ministry of Magic
After the song ended, Ivan and Hermione didn't continue dancing and decided to go back to their seats and rest for a while.
"It's hot, isn't it?" Hermione smiled, fanning herself with the palm of her hand.
Because of dancing, her cheeks were slightly flushed.
"You were too involved in dancing just now!" Ai Wen said, "By the way, what do you want to drink?"
“Juice bar, butter beer is good too!”
"Oh, I'll get it, you go and wait for me first." Ivan responded.
"Wait a minute!" Hermione said, seeing the sweat on Aiwen's forehead, she subconsciously reached out and wiped it for him.
Hermione's hands were soft, smooth and tender, very comfortable to the touch.
She just wiped Ivan twice before realizing what she was doing, and hurriedly put it down with a blushing face.
Ai Wen held her hand to wipe his sweat, and looked at her blankly.
Seeing Hermione's shy look, Ivan couldn't help wondering if it was time to lead her into the grove.
The third dance had just started, and some couples had already left the dance hall holding hands and went to the garden outside.
"Alvin..." Hermione whispered.
Aiwen can be sure that he will not be rejected for anything he does to Hermione now.
Now that the dance is over, we should need some private space for the two of us to get along.
Before Ivan had time to act, Harry and Ginny walked over, and Colin and Gabriel also walked this way.
In the end, Alvin, Harry, and Colin went to get drinks, while Hermione, Ginny, and Gabriel went back and waited.
They went to Ron and Lavender's table and said hello.
Ron ignored them, didn't even turn his head to look at the three of them, but whispered something to Lavender.
Hermione, Ginny, and Gabriel looked at them strangely, not knowing what was going on.
Lavender laughed suddenly, followed Ron to his feet and walked to the stage, ready to dance.
Ron didn't even look at them until the end, as if the three of them were air.
"Have you noticed that Ron is a little weird tonight?"
"Maybe I finally found a girlfriend, I think Lavender is a good match for him..." Ginny said.
Ivan and the others came back with drinks, just in time to see the back of Ron and Lavender leaving.
He didn't have time to talk to Ron, and Ivan was thinking about how to ask Hermione out alone.
As soon as she sat down, Gabriel pestered Ivan to take her to dance, which Ivan had promised her before.
The girl didn't even dance with Colin, she was waiting for Aiwen.
In this case, Aiwen was naturally embarrassed to refuse, and after obtaining Hermione's consent, he led Gabriel to the dance floor.
Harry sat for a while and left, wanting to invite Cho.
Colin and Ginny went dancing, leaving Hermione alone at the table.
"He-mi-en, can I ask you to dance?" Just then a voice said suddenly.
Unexpectedly, Krum came over and invited Hermione to dance.
"I want to rest for a while, you know, I just finished dancing and I'm a little tired!" Hermione hesitated and refused.
She was still thinking about the scene where she took the initiative to wipe Ivan's sweat just now, and the sweat on her palms...
"Okay, I'll be back later!" he said listlessly, and after another glance at Hermione, he turned and left.
Behind him are many girls, they follow Krum to the other side of the stage.
As they passed Hermione, these people all gave her extremely hateful looks.
They are members of Krum's Starchaser Club, and they are dissatisfied with the fact that Krum took the initiative to invite Hermione.
"So you made friends with Viktor Krum and that little Beauxbaton girl, Hermione?!"
Percy moved the chair next to Hermione and rubbed his hands together in a smug way.
"Great! This is the most critical place to host the Triwizard Contest, you know, for the cooperation of the international magic community!"
Percy sat next to Hermione, talking endlessly about the affairs of the Ministry.
If it were someone else, she might have been bored long ago, but Hermione was very interested in working in the Ministry of Magic.
She pressed Percy a lot, and even planned to develop him into a s.p.e.bsp; now, the chairs and classrooms were empty: Professor Dumbledore was dancing with Professor Sproutney, Ludo Bagman and Professor McGonagall danced; Madame Maxime and Hagrid waltzed among the students, drawing a wide track across the dance floor; Karkaroff and Snape went nowhere.
Harry failed to invite Cho and stayed with Luna instead.
Harry and Luna, Ivan and Gabriel, Colin and Ginny, Ron and Lavender are also on the stage, but the eight of them are on the edge of the stage, dancing slowly to the tune, Ivan whispered Instruct Gabriel.
Another piece of music was over, and everyone applauded again.
Ivan noticed that Ludo Bagman kissed Professor McGonagall's hand, and went back through the crowd, when Fred and George caught up to talk to him.
"What are those two guys doing, interfering with senior officials of the Ministry of Magic?" Percy looked at Fred and George warily, and whispered, "No respect at all, no, I have to stop... ..."
Percy spoke to Hermione, got up and walked over there.
Ludo Bagman also quickly got rid of Fred and George. He saw Ivan and Harry and greeted them with a smile.
He took the initiative to walk towards the guest table with a few of them, and Percy was walking towards him.
"My two brothers didn't bother you, Mr. Bagman?" said Percy immediately.
"No, no!" said Bagman, "They just told me about the fake wands they were making, and asked if I could give them some tips on where to sell them, and I promised to put them in touch with a contact at the Seasoning Joke Shop ..."
Percy was not happy to hear that, and he surely intended to be eager to tell Mrs Weasley all this as soon as he got home.
Ivan looked at him with disdain. In order to avoid debts, Ludo Bagman can really talk nonsense.
Fred and George's mischievous products are sold in his and Professor Lupine's shop, and they are more popular than everyone thinks.
They are often ordered as soon as they go up, without Ludo Bagman's help at all.
"By the way, Mr. Bagman, what do you think of the competition? You know, because the Goblet of Fire had a malfunction and the accident of the first match, the corresponding solutions proposed by our company and new ones measures, which will be used in the second game..."
"Ah, yes!" Bagman said happily, not caring at all about Percy's new move, "Old Barty is too careful, I think it's more fun with a little accident, isn't it, today is Christmas Is Old Batty still working in the Ministry? It’s a pity that he can’t come.” Browse the reading address:
