"Aren't we in the same study group? But you two teamed up separately. Are you planning to abandon your teammates?" Harry's emerald green eyes were filled with desolation.

"How can there be..."

This kind of learning is not that kind of learning.

"You still don't admit it? It's obvious that you and Draco are having a private relationship!"

His hand went to my neck and gently lifted the part covered by the high-necked shirt.

"Draco was so busy enjoying himself that he forgot to apply the medicine on you?"

Harry was busy playing with the ointment.

No wonder Draco couldn't find the tube of ointment when he woke up in the morning.

It turns out it was hidden by someone!

"Okay, you've learned how to trick us." Draco snatched the ointment, dipped some of it, and carefully applied it on the red marks on my neck.

"It's class..."

I reminded him with a blushing face.

"What? Just say it was a mosquito bite and I'm just applying medicine for you." Draco didn't stop what he was doing.

"Self-deception..." I muttered softly.

Others were no longer surprised by our closeness.

Slughorn kept the three of us after class.

"Aurora and Draco, your interactions in class..." He suddenly paused.

Oh my god, we must have gone too far today, so the professor called us out after class...

My cheeks turned red as if they were on fire.

"I'm sorry, professor..." I quickly bowed my head and admitted my mistake.

"You remind me of my wonderful coaching career. Your parents, Lucius and Narcissa, also joined my Slug Club when they were your age..."

scared me!

It turns out that we have been invited by Slughorn.

In the original book, Slughorn invited Harry, his trio, and Ginny.

But Draco was turned away.

The reason is that he doesn't think highly of Slytherins who have a Death Eater background.

He is a very shrewd opportunist.

By creating cliques and factions, they can exchange benefits through outstanding students.

He provides students with a platform to connect with resources, while he himself reaps the benefits.

He almost never made a mistake.

The only thing that counts is explaining to Tom Riddle how to make Horcruxes.

He regretted it deeply in the decades that followed.

In his opinion, it was he who led Tom astray.

Therefore, Slughorn deliberately constructed a false memory in his mind.

In the original book, Draco hoped to establish a relationship with Slughorn through his grandfather Abraxas, but was coldly rejected.

He even barged into the event without an invitation.

I can't imagine how sad Draco, who was always proud, must have felt when he was asked to leave.

This time, Draco politely accepted the invitation for both of us.

"Aurora, what's wrong? You don't look happy?"

Draco was sensitive to my abnormality.

"No..." I shook my head, "I just think that Professor Slughorn is much more mercenary than the Godfather..."

Draco laughed and said, "Of course! But my father told me that I could use his connections."

"Similarly, Professor Slughorn has something to ask of us." Draco gave a sly smile.

Indeed, only mutually beneficial relationships can last.

In the original book, he was unwilling to associate with Voldemort's followers, so naturally he would not treat the Malfoy family well.
