The Chinese girl from Hufflepuff is both timid and brave

Although he used the excuse that he was starving, in fact, Sun Zhu just drank something and ate a few pieces of pudding and was almost full.

She lazily slid into the cushioned sofa in the lounge, watching Tonks, who was suddenly playing wizard chess with Fina with great interest.

Karina and Duke were laughing at what they were talking about; Captain Field and several other players were instructing James about something; seniors Cecilia and Anna were distributing the fruit salad they had made to everyone.

Sun Zhu also got a small bowl, which was filled with colorful fruit pieces and some crystal clear jelly. To her surprise, in addition to these, she seemed to smell a faint aroma of wine.

"It's fruit wine. Children can drink it too." Senior Anna winked at her.

Sun Zhu took a sip of the wine in the bowl, and it really didn't have a spicy taste, only a mellow aroma. She took a few more sips, and suddenly found three identical blurry figures appearing in front of her.

She put down the crystal bowl in her hand dizzily and tried to prop herself up, but sank back into the soft sofa.

"How are you?" A blurry figure suddenly approached and reached out to touch her forehead. "Are you drunk?"

Sun Zhu half closed his eyes and said reluctantly, "I was careless. I didn't know that alcohol tolerance is also hereditary."

But she thought, she should be a little better than her father, right?

The man chuckled and said, "Then you should have a good rest first."

"I'm fine, I'm not tired." Sun Zhu shook his head, "Just lean on him for a while."

She reached out and gently grasped a vine hanging from the ceiling. The tender green leaves covered the branch and circled around Sun Zhu's fingertips.

The man waved his wand and whispered, "The orchid is in bloom."

There were actually a few orchid buds among the tender green branches and leaves, and they soon bloomed at her fingertips.

Sun Zhu's drunkenness faded a little. She stared blankly at the white flowers, then glanced at Cedric who had sat next to her without her knowing when, and asked stupidly, "When did you learn this?"

"Well, this is what my mother likes to use, so I learned it from her." His face was reflected by the light, and his slightly red cheeks looked softer. Seeing her staring at him blankly, he lowered his head in embarrassment: "Do you like it?"

"I like it very much." Sun Zhu closed his eyes and gently stroked the orchid bud with his fingers. "What a beautiful and fragile life."

"Zhu, if you are very tired, don't force yourself." Cedric said suddenly.

"I didn't, I didn't play Quidditch today." She closed her eyes and shook her head.

"But I can feel that you are very tired." Cedric said, "Although I have no idea what you are worried about, I hope you can be happier."

Sun Zhu heard this and exerted force on her hand, accidentally picking an orchid. She opened her eyes, staring blankly at the white flower in her palm, and suddenly felt like crying.

"You know what? Ced." She held the flower in front of him. "I've always been afraid that you would suddenly... I'm also afraid that many of you would be like this, and if you're not careful, you would be separated from the branches and leaves and lose your vitality."

Cedric subconsciously grabbed her hand and wrapped the flower in her palm.

"Are you worried about the flowers, or are you worried about me?"

"Of course I'm worried about you. Do you know that you are actually more fragile than it? All it takes is a ray of..." She pointed at the still swaying branches, "a ray of light like that, and everything will be over."

She covered one of his eyes with her free hand, and his light grey eyes looked at her tenderly.

Sun Zhu couldn't help but feel wet: "Don't look at me like that, I'm not drunk."

She tried to pull out her other hand and cover both of his eyes.

As long as you don't look at it, you won't think too much about it.

Cedric, however, held both of her hands in his, and seeing that she looked unhappy, he laughed softly.

"What are you laughing at!" Sun Zhu's hands were tied and he couldn't move. He was very angry. "I didn't expect you to be this kind of person. I'm not kidding. Do you think I'm worrying too much?"

"No, I completely trust you." Cedric looked at the seniors who were attracted by the noise not far away, and felt a little nervous.

Fortunately, Senior Cecilia waved her hand and took Senior Field away, who had been looking over there. Senior Anna also took away a few curious kids. Only Senior Tonks was still shaking her head with a half-smile, and she turned her dark purple hair pink.

"Zhu, I want to say... I'm very happy." He lowered his head slightly and looked at Sun Zhu who had been glaring at him. "Well, you are worried about me. Although I don't want to give you this feeling of insecurity, I am still very happy to hear you say that."

"You...are you a pervert?" Sun Zhu gritted his teeth, "How can someone be so happy like you when someone tells you something bad is going to happen?"

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Seeing that she couldn't free her hands, she simply bit the base of his right hand.

"Hiss..." Cedric cried out in pain. She raised her head proudly, looked at the teeth marks on his hand, and raised her eyebrows. "Do you feel the pain?"

"It doesn't hurt." He shook his head and said to her seriously, "There are many bones protecting your hands. You should bite somewhere else. It will hurt more."

Sun Zhu was stunned for three seconds. Seeing that he was giving her a kind instruction, he finally reacted: "Do you think I'm stupid? Cedric, why should I care whether you live or die!"

"If ignoring me can make you happier, then you should just leave me alone." He looked at her with some grievance.

"...Okay, let go. From now on, I will pretend that I don't know you."

"No, pretending not to know me will make you more tired." He released one of her hands and took out the flower from her palm. "Are you worried that I will be picked like this flower and wither completely?"

Sun Zhu didn't say anything, just quietly looked at the petals that had been flattened by her.

"I'll try not to let anyone pick me." Cedric whispered.

"This is not something you can achieve just by working hard." Sun Zhu said with a wry smile: "You were picked not because you didn't work hard, but... because you were the most beautiful one."

"Then I should make myself uglier?" Cedric frowned in distress, "Or, I should not bloom?"

"Do you know what you are saying?" Sun Zhu was almost amused by him, "It's not your fault that you are excellent, and running away is definitely not something you would do."

Cedric nodded: "So what do you think I should do?"

"Keep being yourself and do what you want to do." Sun Zhu glanced at the tooth marks on his hand, picked up the wand, and cast "Heal as before". "Anyway, I have already made up my mind. I will never let something that shouldn't happen happen."

"I believe you."

"Do you believe that I'm a prophet?" Sun Zhu glanced at him and saw that the corners of his mouth were still raised. He simply said, "Sed, you will be in danger. Even if you are better than all your peers, you can't avoid this danger. Are you really not worried at all?"

"Even if no one picks the flowers, they will eventually fall from the branches." He shook his head, "But if you can hold them in your palm, even if there is danger, what is there to be afraid of?"
