Harry Potter and the Virtue of Miss Potter

“Si…jiao…” Wu Mu was a little dizzy, looking at the blurry face in front of him and tentatively calling out.

Si Jiao looked at Wu Mu, but his pace didn't slow down at all. "Speak."

Upon hearing Si Jiao's words, Wu Mu felt relieved and immediately forgot about his injury.

Why do you have such a long face? You don't show any expression at all?

"I hope you haven't damaged your brain, Mu." Si Jiao's arrogant personality is truly hurtful!

“Master Si, I can actually walk by myself.” A long trail of blood had already left a mark on the ground from Wu Mu’s arm.

Upon hearing Wu Mu say this, Si Jiao ruthlessly released one hand, grabbed Wu Mu's clothes from behind, and continued to carry Wu Mu towards the medical wing.

Wu Mu: ...Master Si, I really want you to experience what it feels like to be lifted up!

“Mrs. Pomfrey.” The first thing Professor S said upon entering was to find the school doctor.

"Oh, it's Professor Snape! What's wrong with the child?"

"I think I'm fine!" Wu Mu smiled cheerfully.

"Oh, the injury is quite serious, child. But it's alright. In just one day, your arm will be free from the risk of amputation. However, your injuries won't be fully healed yet. You'd better stay here for a while longer. I suggest you stay here for two months before leaving."

“Yes! Thank you, Mrs. Pomfrey! One day is enough, I’m afraid I won’t be able to keep up with my studies!” Wu Mu grinned at Mrs. Pomfrey.

Throughout the bandaging process, Si Jiao never left, keeping an eye on Wu Mu, who was sitting on the bed trying his best not to move.

"Alright, child! You can rest here now, you'll get better soon!" After bandaging up the wound, Mrs. Pomfrey took her things and left.

"If you're sleepy, go to sleep."

"Hmm... then I'll go to sleep, Professor Si! You can go back now! I'm fine!" Wu Mu gently moved his injured arm.

It hurts so much, my face is almost contorted...

"Go to sleep, I'll leave in a bit." Si Jiao sat on the stool beside Wu Mu's bed, just watching her.

Wu Mu: "Hmm... okay! Professor Si, if you're sleepy, you can go back! I'm going to sleep now?" Professor Si, why aren't you leaving?! What I hate most is people staring into my eyes. You're staring at me like that, I'm scared!

Wu Mu thought for a moment and slowly moved his body to lie down on the bed.

Perhaps the chaotic fight had exhausted Wu Mu, because she fell asleep soon after. But Si Jiao didn't leave; he stayed sitting beside her.

As dawn broke, Si Jiao dared to gently stroke Wu Mu's face.

“Wu Mu is very brave and smart. Her classmates call her Little Clever. She also has great interpersonal skills. I really wish she could be your and my daughter, Lily.” Professor Si’s voice was very soft. After saying that, he left.

Wu Mu: Si Jiao is still thinking about my beautiful mother! By the way... has word of everyone calling me Little Clever already reached Si Jiao's ears? Oh well, these things are irrelevant to me now!

When Si Jiao spoke so close to Wu Mu and even touched Wu Mu's face, the sensitive Wu Mu naturally woke up, and Wu Mu overheard the little secret!

Wu Mu: Hmm... What time is it now?

Wu Mu took out his pocket watch from his pocket, glanced at it, and said, "How come it's already past six o'clock? Has Professor Si been watching over me all night? Doesn't this mean we can't just call this a normal teacher-student relationship?"

"It's obviously a godfather-goddaughter relationship! But that's fine, at least he's Severus, let's just let things take their course!"

After saying that, Wu Mu closed his eyes: Okay, okay, let's go back to sleep! I don't have to go to class today, let me sleep all day!
