Mr. Hunter took his two somewhat absent-minded juniors to a table and chairs in the garden and sat down. Next to them was the four-petal white daisy that Till had been obsessed with, but Till lowered his head slightly and had no intention of looking at it.

Snape looked calmer than Tyr, but under Mr. Hunter's serious eyes, this calmness was only a drop in the bucket.

"When students and professors are together, the public will talk about it non-stop. Maybe Till doesn't understand, and Severus, don't you understand either?" Mr. Hunter really valued the two of them, and that's why he At this time, he shamelessly involved the emotional problems of the two of them, "I don't want to open my eyes one day and see the "Daily Prophet" with words condemning you two."

"Tiel and I are not together." Snape said calmly, "Those reporters and editors will not find substantive evidence."

"Evidence? You can easily destroy you by looking for evidence. What evidence do you need?" Mr. Hunter wanted to laugh at Snape for being so stubborn, but when he saw that his hands on the table were clenched into fists, , Mr. Hunter couldn't bear it.

"I won't say much today, I just hope you two can calm down." Mr. Hunter stood up, but asked Till and Snape to sit down, who were about to get up in a hurry. "I won't ask anyone else to come over. Please be patient. Let’s talk.”

Mr. Hunter sighed and looked at his pocket watch: "The dance will end in an hour and a half."

After that, Mr. Hunter strode away, leaving Till and Snape in the garden watered by the night wind, blowing in the wind to clear their heads.

In the silence between each other, Snape closed his eyes. He knew that Mr. Hunter's words were mainly to remind him. Snape had experienced how painful the consequences of chasing rumors would be.

At that time, Voldemort had just lost power, and a group of Death Eaters were waiting to be sentenced to death by the Ministry of Magic. Although Snape was saved by Professor Dumbledore, Karkaroff's identification still made the Ministry of Magic extremely cautious about Snape, even if he After he started working as a professor at Hogwarts, supervisors from the Ministry of Magic still questioned him from time to time.

The Ministry of Magic has been trying to find evidence that Snape actually belongs to the dark forces. When he used the Occlumency technique and couldn't find anything, they started to attack people around him.

Potions preparation textbooks, applications for the position of Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, notes on Dark Arts in library books when he was a student...anything that can affect Snape has become "evidence" for the Ministry of Magic to seize the opportunity. .

Wasn’t there not enough publicity in the newspapers in those years? Snape was a little annoyed that he was not calm at this time.

If photos of him and Till dancing were circulated - as Till and Bill had been - how would people speculate on their relationship? Snape himself didn't care, but what about Tyr?

There will be people scolding her, humiliating her, ridiculing her...

Snape raised his head suddenly: "Tyr..."

"Shh!" Till seemed to know what Snape was going to say next. She didn't want to hear it, but gestured to Snape, instructing him to look at the sky with her.

Till's voice was very soft: "There are so many stars tonight, don't disturb them."

Snape took a deep breath, but the words he just wanted to say were blocked. He asked him to speak again, but he had already lost his courage. Snape raised his head and tried to appreciate the starry sky in Teal's eyes.

The moon has set towards the east, which means that the time has begun to shift towards the early morning. Stars surrounded the moon, but filled the entire black sky. With each breath, the eyes were filled with stars. Tyr suddenly spoke and asked Snape off guard: "Professor, do you regret it? You danced with me."

Mr. Hunter seemed to have noticed the difference between Till and Snape through the dance just now.

"No regrets." Snape withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Till, who still raised his head. "So, do you regret it?"

Till closed his eyes and spoke softly but seriously: "I don't regret it."

Although the dance lasted only briefly, Till had never been so sure of his and Snape's feelings for each other. That feeling that doesn’t need to be expressed is already reflected in actions and eyes.

Till sat upright and turned her head to meet Snape's gaze. She thought she was ready: "Professor, what did you just say? I want to hear it now."

"But I don't want to say it anymore." Snape's soft voice was blown away by the wind, but Till, who was only one seat away from him, still heard it clearly.

Do you really don’t want to say anything, or do you just don’t know how to speak? A smile suddenly appeared on Teal's lips that stunned Snape: "Then let me tell you?"

"According to Mr. Hunter's wishes, we should keep a distance while I am still a student at Hogwarts. But according to my wishes, I hope that the professor can open up to me and tell me his true feelings for me. "Til stood up, not to leave, but because this posture made her feel more comfortable when talking to Snape.

Moreover, looking down from above allowed Thiel to see the changes in Snape's expression more intuitively.

Snape's nervous eyes, blinking subconsciously, his lips puckered as he didn't know what to say...

Teal waited, wondering what kind of answer Snape would give him. At any rate, Mr. Hunter had made it obvious that they could all chat undisturbed here in the garden until the ball was over.

The girl in front of him was obviously thirteen years younger than him, but at this moment, Snape had to admit that Till was the leader of this relationship. Whether it was his quick withdrawal at the beginning or his ability to move forward and retreat freely after knowing each other well, Teal had always been able to arouse Snape's emotions.

Tonight was no exception.

Snape smiled bitterly, and finally compromised: "Yes, that's right, I like you, and I don't want to keep distance from you at all."

"But as far as I know, you had a deal with Professor Dumbledore." After receiving the expected answer, Teal sat down again. The next topic really cut Snape's heart out, but she Be sure to ask.

Till would never have been able to turn the page without asking.

"It used to be for Lily, but now it's for Harry." Till's tone was very calm, so calm that Snape across from him began to lose his composure. She still said unhurriedly, "You traded yourself to Professor Dumbledore, why do you like me and why do you stand by my side?"

In the pensieve, Teal looked at too many memories. He was already sad enough when he should have been sad. Looking back now, he actually had some thoughts to stimulate Snape.

The first man he fell in love with had caused him such a huge emotional setback. Till must ask Snape to explain it to him clearly and discuss what progress would be made later.

Otherwise, Till will feel depressed and aggrieved every time he thinks about it in the future. Even if she successfully got together with Snape, she would not feel that this relationship would last long.

[Host, aren’t you afraid that after today’s conversation, you won’t have the chance to talk about the future? 】The system secretly appeared, wiping a cold sweat over the boldness of its host.

Snape's face across from him was almost as white as the moonlight on the ground.
