Su Xingchen put the wand back into his pocket.

You little brat, you're so arrogant that you ruined her good mood for sunbathing.

"cool!"

anyone?

Looking in the direction of the voice, a whole team of Gryffindor Quidditch players were standing not far away, and the one who spoke was Fred, one of the twins.

Harry took a few steps forward and asked, "Are you okay, Xingchen?"

"It's okay." Su Xingchen looked at the large group of people behind her. Oh, her image seemed to be gone.

Her face was slightly shocked. "Did you all see it?"

"Yes." Harry nodded. God knows when they got here, he saw Pansy pull out her wand. His heart was in his throat. Fortunately...

He was very happy. Su Xingchen was indeed his best friend, but he sometimes worried that she was too docile and weak. Now it seemed that was not entirely the case.

Su Xingchen glanced at Harry with a slightly strange look. What was he grinning like? If it weren't for the fact that they were all around, she would have wanted to ask if the child had a fever again.

"Well done!" Fred's head popped up from behind Harry.

"It would be even better if you waved your wand." George appeared from the other side.

Uh, these two guys… they just want to watch the fun and make trouble. Are they thinking that Gryffindor doesn’t have enough points to deduct?

"Don't listen to George's nonsense." The other Gryffindor team members also came over. Wood's face was full of admiration. "You did a good job."

Angelina put her arms tightly around Su Xingchen's shoulders and said, "To be honest, I always thought you didn't look like a Gryffindor. It seems I was wrong. The Sorting Hat never makes the wrong choice." After she said that, she pressed the person into her arms.

Su Xingchen was pressed down by the tall Angelina. She tensed her whole body and just managed to stand up. She looked petite and delicate in Angelina's arms, and her face turned even redder.

It was the first time someone held me in their arms, and it was a girl, so I felt shy.

"Little darling, you're so cute." Angelina found Su Xingchen's blushing face amusing, and patted her shoulder, making a patting sound.

One can't help but sigh that Quidditch players are so strong.

But... didn't we agree not to mention the "little cutie" thing?

"Are you going to practice?" Su Xingchen quickly changed the subject and was really confused.

Although the lunch break is not short, it is still too tight for Quidditch practice. Is it necessary to work so hard?

When this topic was brought up, Wood's expression became noticeably uglier.

"We're going to play Hufflepuff in a few days, but our previous training was all against Slytherin," Harry explained.

"Hufflepuff?" Su Xingchen frowned. Why did she remember that they were competing with Slytherin?

"Flint said their Seeker still has an arm injury." Wood looked angry. "He clearly doesn't want to play in this weather. It will reduce their chances of winning. Hufflepuff has a new captain, Cedric Diggory."

Angelina, Alia, and Katie suddenly giggled. Su Xingchen could even feel Angelina's arm trembling on her shoulder. "It's that tall, handsome guy, right?"

"He's a solid, quiet guy," Katie said, and they all started giggling again.

Not talkative? Was the Cedric they were talking about the same Cedric she knew? Su Xingchen was skeptical. She felt that although Cedric didn't talk much, he didn't talk too much either.

"He doesn't like to talk because he's stupid and can't form a complete sentence." Fred said impatiently, "I don't know what you're worried about, Oliver. Hufflepuff is a piece of cake. The last time we played against them, Harry caught the Golden Snitch in just five minutes, remember?"

Speaking of this, Su Xingchen remembered that she and Cedric met after this game.

Harry also thought of this, and he quickly glanced at Su Xingchen.

She looked calm, not laughing with Angelina and the others, nor was she angry at Fred's words.

"We were playing under completely different circumstances back then!" Wood yelled, his eyes bulging slightly.

"Diggory has assembled a strong team, and he's also a very good Seeker himself! I'm afraid you all need to realize this! We must not relax! We must stay focused, and Slytherin will never try to disrupt our formation! We must win!"

Su Xingchen looked at Wood in surprise. Why was he so excited?

"Oliver! Calm down!" Fred's voice was a little panicked. "We take Hufflepuff very seriously. Very seriously."

"Okay, we have to go." Wood nodded to Su Xingchen and took the lead to walk towards the Quidditch field.

Angelina quickly released her arms and followed Wood.

"I'm off to training," said Harry.

"Harry." Su Xingchen pulled Harry's sleeve, "Wood... he's..." Why is he so weird.

Harry pursed his lips. "This is his last year, and he really wants to win the House Cup, so..."

"So that's how it is." Su Xingchen let go of his hand, "Go quickly."

Harry nodded and jogged a few steps to catch up with the other players. A group of Quidditch players in bright red clothes were walking further and further away.

Su Xingchen watched them go away, then lowered his eyes to stare at the patterns on the floor tiles.

Wood wants to win a college cup before graduation.

Unfortunately, they are going to be disappointed.

Gryffindor lost.

Because Harry was attacked by Dementors.

Wood never got another chance to win the Academy Cup.

Su Xingchen raised his head and looked directly at the sun above his head. The scorching light made him subconsciously close his eyes, leaving only red eyes.

It seemed as if he was praising her courage, yet also as if he was mocking her absurdity and incompetence.

People are really strange.

The more you want to escape from something, the closer you will be to it.

When you keep telling yourself not to do it, your heart becomes even more restless.

Putting down the hand that was blocking the sunlight, Su Xingchen angrily rubbed the floor, his mood getting worse.

None of this is her business, and it cannot be her business.

A hurried figure came over here.

Su Xingchen narrowed his eyes, oh wow, the "culprit" is here.

Draco rushed over, a worried look on his face, "Xingchen, are you okay?"

This is the second person asking the same question today.

Su Xingchen smiled, but his expression was fake.

"What should I do?"

Draco looked her over and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she was unharmed. "Nothing..."

Su Xingchen spoke slowly and quietly, "If you mean Pansy Parkinson came to me like you, rushing to cause trouble, pulling out her wand and saying she was going to teach me a lesson... then there's something wrong."

Draco became nervous again when he heard this, and pulled her arm and spun her around twice like a top to check.
