Dumbledore clearly saw what she was thinking. With a grin, he brought the long white-bearded face close to Willow Spring's ear and whispered, "Oh, Lily, don't worry, I think the elixir is a good thing—it will make you get good results in everything you do." ”

Willow Springs' surprise. The hint in Dumbledore's words was so obvious that she stared at him in disbelief, and sure enough, she saw the old wizard wink at her again.

Liu Quan suddenly felt a warm power rush from her stomach, and the feeling spread quickly like warm water, filling her whole body. She felt as if she had been unconsciously trying to laugh, and she did.

Her smile made Snape's face even more ugly.

Dumbledore continued to happily bombard the Slytherin Headmaster's nerves.

"Oh, Severus, I wouldn't mind adding this wonderful little magic to all the chairs in the auditorium right now—"

Snape glanced at the old headmaster in annoyance, then looked away again, his hands behind his back, his back straighter.

Dumbledore didn't look like he had the slightest intention of letting him go.

"Look, isn't that Mr. Longbottom over there?" the old wizard pointed to a spot on the dance floor with high interest, and praised with a fluttering eyebrow, "He's dancing so well—he's seen a lot ......of Slytherin students still standing, don't they have a partner?"

Snape breathed out of his big nose in exasperation, glaring at the old headmaster with such joy that he seemed to have to his white beard and dance to the music.

Unfortunately, Dumbledore didn't seem to notice his eye knife at all, and happily said to the Gryffindor dean beside him, "Oh, Minerva, I will say that the Gryffindor children have behaved so brilliantly tonight, they all look like they are possessed by the king of dances—on such a wonderful night, they should put aside all their worries and enjoy the pleasure of a good ball...... If there weren't no precedent for this, I'd be willing to add fifty points to Gryffindor for this......"

Snape couldn't stand Dumbledore's ramblings, and finally shook his robe angrily, and turned to face the old headmaster who was going to torture him mad tonight, and the black robe rolled out in a menacing arc behind him.

Willow Spring and Dumbledore were stunned for a moment. Dumbledore was the first to react, smiling and asking, "Oh, Severus, have you finally figured it out?"

Snape glared at him with a terrible look in his eyes. He said, "I'm going to patrol—"

"Oh, dance until then. Dumbledore didn't seem to see the dead light in Snape's eyes at all, and he grinned and cut off his words.

"I don't know what the hell you thought I was interested in this stupid dance—" Snape snape snapped back, looking as if he wasn't going to compromise at all.

"Oh, oh, Severus, I certainly didn't think you suddenly fell in love with dancing—" Dumbledore slyly dragged out his voice and winked at the Potions professor with a rainy face. "But I think it's sinful to ruthlessly refuse a lady's invitation......"

Snape froze for a moment, then lowered his voice and roared, "You...... How do you know ......!"

"Oh, my child, the Hogwarts portraits are unanimous in their opinion that every lady deserves to be treated more decently by gentlemen on such a good night. Dumbledore replied happily, his eyes unabashedly sliding over the frames on the walls that were crowded with magical portraits of people who came to see the excitement.

Snape's face was horrible. He looked like he wanted to pull out his wand and tear the frames apart.

"I remember you've always been interested in the horns of the horned camels, Severus. Dumbledore seemed to be completely oblivious to Snape's dangerous gaze, and continued to speak to himself.

"What is that, horned camel?" Professor McGonagall said with interest before Snape could reply.

"Oh, a wonderful and rare creature. Dumbledore turned to Professor McGonagall, looking pleasant. Blue eyes sparkle behind his glasses. "A lot of people think it doesn't actually exist because it's very hard to get its horns, but I would say — there are still some people who believe it exists — and once you see it, you feel how important it is to stand up for what you believe in. Its horns are used for many purposes—"

"Yes, yes. It is a legendary extremely rare potion material. Snape finally chisel, hesitated, and slowly reached out to Willow Spring.

"If that's what you want to see, Dumbledore. Although he bent down slightly towards Liu Quan and stretched out his hand, making a gesture of inviting dance, his eyes were looking at the smiling old wizard on the side. And his words sounded enough to gnash his teeth, as if a word burst out from between his teeth.

Willow Quan was stunned for a moment, and after receiving an encouraging and interesting look from Dumbledore, he stood up a little helplessly and put his hand in Snape's hand.

“…… For the horns of the horned camel. As they walked side by side to the dance floor, Snape was still gritting his teeth and muttering to himself. His palms were cold, and Liu Quan almost shivered.

The two of them walked to the dance floor and took a random corner to stand. Liu Quan's eyes slipped around, and he found that a circular no-man's land had immediately formed around them, and in the middle were the two of them—just the two of them. The rest of the dancers seemed to crowd to the other end of the dance floor in an instant.

Thankfully, tonight's special guest, the Weird Sisters, was unaffected by the weird and terrifying fact that Hogwarts' scariest professor actually got off the dance floor to dance. They continued to sing a new song on stage with affection and lightness and appropriateness.

Liu Quan's movements froze slightly.

Snape's body was straight, almost stiff as if he had been under a petrification spell.

He took a deep breath unknowingly, and viciously grabbed Liu Quan's right hand, clutching it in his hand as if he was going to crush it directly, and then his own right hand shook before he put it on her waist, hesitated for a moment, and pushed her waist with a slight force, causing her to turn around.

Liu Quan wore a dark blue dress tonight, and there were many small sequins woven in the texture of the cloth that were barely visible when they were still at rest, and only when the flowing light slipped on her, or when she herself acted, those sparkling little sequins would flow as brightly as the gentle waves of the ocean under the light of the stars.

She was spun in a circle by Snape, and the skirt that spread slightly down her waist flew up, the sequin-covered fabric gently rippling in the dancefloor lights. It must be said that Lily's appearance is well described in the story, even in her thirties, her skin is still smooth and delicate, lined with red hair and emerald green eyes, which is a wonderful contrast to Snape, who has a furrowed brow, a displeased expression, a gloomy expression, and a stiff movement.

As their dance moves swirled across the dance floor, Willow Springs' voices could be heard whispering around them. Snape, on the other hand, was clearly stiffer. He barely stepped on the beat, trying not to mess up the rhythm or step on his dance partner in public, an expression that reminded Willow Quan of the stiff posture he had when he was riding on a broomstick, as if he was about to roll over and fall off the broom at any moment—the only compulsory subject he didn't learn well during his time at Hogwarts was flying lessons, right?

Liu Quan couldn't help but purse his lips and smile slightly.

Snape glared at her, as if he was going to pour out all his anger at Dumbledore's duck drive and the unscrupulous onlookers and chatter of the crowd around him.

"You seem to be having a good time......? Miss Brand?" He gorgeously lengthened every root of the last salutation, and his deep voice was sleek, showing that the displeasure in his heart was almost at its peak.

Liu Quan silently thought that when she was in the real world, it seemed to be a voice control. Luckily, she's also met a lot of people with wonderful voices in this fantasy game world. A few of them, even with their own voices, seem to be heartbreaking enough.

Today, for example, there is such a man standing in front of her, who can be intoxicated by his voice alone. Although that nice voice never says anything nice.

Liu Quan lowered his gaze slightly and smiled. The corners of her lips are raised, and a faint lip vortex slowly emerges on the side of her cheeks. Her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and there was an uncontrollable smile flowing from the corners of her eyes.

"I'm very happy indeed, Severus. She replied softly, not looking at his expression, but at the long, neatly buttoned row of buttons on his chest.

"Even though this dance was exchanged for the horns of a rare horned camel, I was very happy. She continued, with a hint of emotion and sigh in her tone.

Snape didn't answer her, just a slight pause on his feet. Luckily, she kept an eye on his movements and stopped the car just in time before hitting him. Snape snorted, and for a moment she thought he was going to leave her on the dance floor and walk away, but he only expressed his displeasure with a cold snort, and said nothing further. After that pause, his hand holding her right hand loosened slightly, but then clenched it again, continuing to move her mechanically across the dance floor.

"Albus is really a very understanding boss. For this, I am willing to die for him. In order to hide her mixed emotions, she deliberately joked.

Snape's footsteps faltered slightly. This time, though, he reacted a little quicker than the last time. At least Willow Quan didn't need to stop to avoid bumping into him, he had continued his rigid movement.

"Innocent almost stupid Gryffindor!" he cursed in a low voice, not knowing who he was scolding.

Liu Quan smiled.
