Esther admitted that she really didn’t know how to refute Theodore’s words. This kind of question was as paradoxical as Schrödinger’s cat.

Just like the question of the century "My mother and her girlfriend fell into the water, who do you save first?" If you can't answer, you can actually choose neither.

Therefore, Esther answered him calmly: "I don't like assumptions, nor do I like philosophy. I would rather eat a piece of cake than these."

Even though she was full and really couldn't eat anymore.

Astoria still held her chin and said to Esther with a smile: "Then you have to eat more. These cakes are made by Mrs. Malfoy herself. You will definitely not be able to eat them outside."

Esther also sighed: "Mrs. Malfoy's cooking skills are so good. Could it be that she learned it specifically for her son?"

Astoria continued: "How else can it be just a hobby?"

Why not?

Baking is a very fulfilling thing.

Of course, I didn't say that eating ready-made cakes doesn't mean that there is no sense of accomplishment. She also felt very accomplished after eating four small cakes in one go.

Esther admired herself for being able to complain about herself at such a time.

Theodore on the side took two more steps forward, and then let out a sneer.

His laughter was soft, but both girls heard it, so they looked at him.

Astoria looked surprised: "It was Nott just now. Did you laugh?"

Esther: "Is it surprising that he smiles? Could it be that he didn't know how to smile before, because he has facial paralysis?"

Theodore ignored Esther's interruption. He looked at her quietly and said the second sentence: "You seem very free and easy, but in fact you are probably more scared than us, so you are evading like this."

Esther sat up involuntarily and narrowed her blue eyes: "Escape? What am I escaping from?"

"Inaction itself is an escape, and you have been expressing your escape from the beginning."

His dark eyes are like the deep lake water at night, elusive; his voice is like the flow of water, without any emotion, but it can make people think of the cold touch of touching the lake water.

Esther smiled slightly, as if she didn't care about what he said. Only she knew that this guy did hit on some of her emotions.

It is quite impressive for a 13-year-old boy to be so insightful.

However, Esther did not admit that he was right, so she looked at him without fear and decided to give him the final blow: "My life is quite happy, so I am looking forward to my future life, and I have no regrets about the past. Pity."

The corner of Theodore's lips twitched. She didn't want to speak, and he didn't want to waste any more time.

So he turned around and left.

Astoria sighed, slumped back on the sofa and said to Esther, "You sometimes rub salt into other people's wounds."

When Esther saw that he was gone, her breath relaxed, and she answered her deliberately and playfully: "How do you know that my barbecue skills are pretty good?"

Astoria was amused by her, and the atmosphere became relaxed for a moment.

Only Esther knew that she was not at ease inside.

The banquet finally came to an end, and Esther felt that she was almost exhausted.

When she got home, she and her father David slumped on the sofa just like they did, sighing with exhaustion and relief.

"Okay, you two." Letitia could only hold her forehead and sigh: "Go wash up and rest quickly, don't stay in the living room all the time."

Neither of them moved.

Esther sighed and said, "Mom, just let me rest for a while, just for a while. I will definitely go to wash up and go to bed."

David also sighed: "Sure enough, I still hate this kind of communication as always."

Letitia shook her head, ignored them, and went back to wash up.

Summer nights are very quiet, and they live far away from the city, so this tranquility is amplified into silence.

Esther blinked in a daze.

After being in a daze for a while, she suddenly asked David: "Dad, someone asked me a rather profound question today. If you knew that the ending of your life was not satisfactory, would you try to go back to the past and change everything?"

Dad did not look at her, but replied calmly: "When you ask this question, it means that you do not accept the final outcome, so you have already prepared the multiple-choice question, why do you have to do it again?" What about making a choice?”

"Is that right?"

Esther tilted her head and murmured quietly.

Already made your choice?

"I'm really not suitable for thinking about such philosophical issues."

She finally sighed and gave up thinking.

"Don't worry." Dad David said: "If you are not suitable for philosophy, you can try mathematics, physics, and chemistry. I have promised your grandfather that you will go to their place to spend the summer vacation in two days and make up for the Muggle courses. "

He gave a gloating smile.

Esther:…

He is such a good father to her.

She took a deep breath and forced a smile: "It doesn't matter, I can also tell my grandfather about your recent outstanding performance. I believe that with my grandfather's help, you may be able to take a step forward in a short time. "

David:…

The two of them turned their heads silently, not looking at each other.

Then soon, everyone left here in silence.

Knew it! Fatherly kindness and sonly filial piety simply don’t exist here, okay?

After tossing and turning all night with her worries in mind, Esther finally remembered something.

Damn it, she hasn’t learned the Patronus Charm yet?

So after she just quarreled with her father yesterday, will her father still teach her the Patronus Charm today?

the answer is……

Because she slept late last night, she got up late this morning. By the time he walked out of the room, her parents had already finished breakfast and left.

Esther sighed as she gnawed on the toast her mother had left specially for her.

Forget it, let’s seize the time to study on our own.

There are only a few days left, because after these few days she will return to her grandparents and learn various lessons that can kill her.

In my previous life, I took tutoring classes during the summer vacation, but I never expected that in another world, I would still be unable to escape the fate of tutoring classes.

I really don’t understand, who is spending the summer vacation where they eat, sleep, and go out to play when they wake up!

Why can't I take her with me?

After studying the book for a long time and still not understanding anything, Esther finally decided to put down her wand and choose to destroy it.

Forget it, don't embarrass yourself first, why not read some books and relax.

So until she was packed up and thrown to her grandparents by her parents, she still did not let her wand release a trace of the magic power of the Patronus Charm.

The good news is that after reading four or five novels, she feels that her ability to read and stay up late has improved significantly.
