Chapter 19 Invitations

In the history of magic class, Snape looked at Gloria, who was sitting next to him sleepily, her head drooping little by little, and seeing that she was about to hit the table all of a sudden, Snape quickly stretched out his hand and rushed down.

Gloria had woken up a little at the last moment of her fall, but before she could regain control of her body, she could only slam into the table, the expected noise and pain did not occur, some warm, soft, and with a bitter smell of potions.

Gloria blinked lightly in his palm, Snape felt an itchy and tingling sensation in his palm, quickly withdrew his hand, and snorted coldly, Gloria raised her arm under her head, and looked at Snape with her face sideways, "Thank you." ”

Snape's voice sounded with a bit of sarcasm, "I'm assuming Gloria, you don't want to try the experience of getting your grades down because you've been all O these semesters. ”

"Of course not, Severus, I'll never be complacent about my achievements until I surpass you. ”

"I'm afraid your words don't match your behavior in class. ”

"Don't say that, you've always been my target. Gloria said with a smile.

Snape seemed to hear what he meant, glared at her in exasperation, and then said stiffly, "So, I'm supposing that Miss Pendragon, who is targeting me, hasn't had a troll with a head full of sagebrush on her Hogsmeade this weekend?"

Gloria raised her eyebrows slightly, "I'm assuming your assumption is correct, in fact, I've always been reluctant to associate with trolls with a head full of sagebrush, I thought it would be clear from the Christmas ball, after all, my half-blood prince invited his princess, but I didn't, did I?"

Snape's face turned red all at once, if he had said something uncertain before, now in this obvious sentence, he could also hear her intentions, and the faint sourness and dissatisfaction, he didn't know what to say, could it be that the invitation to Lily had a hint of arguing with Potter, or did he think that Gloria would not think about him at all, in matters like balls? After all, she was also a noble lady, unlike Lily, who had grown up with him.

He turned his mind around, but at last he could only say with a hint of irony, "Well, how about I give my dear Miss Pendragon a chance to prove that I am not a troll with a brain full of grass?"

Gloria straightened up, as if looking him up and down, the corners of her mouth raised, "Since His Royal Highness the Prince has invited me so sincerely, then I will go and see if you have a sage in your head." ”

That being said, a pair of blue eyes sparkled with joy, and Snape was in a trance for a moment, as if he saw the midday sun shining on the small lake next to Spider's Tail Alley, sparkling and beautiful.

He quickly came back to his senses, let out a snort from his nose, and turned his head to look earnestly at Professor Binns, as if suddenly realizing that he was in class, but only if he ignored the parchment that he had not touched since then, and the reddish tips of his ears hidden in his black hair.
