"Luke, the new head of the Lord family is about the same age as you, only five years younger than you. When the banquet begins, you must find a way to make friends with him. The Lord family can help our Malfoy family take a step forward. This is also the Lord's order."

Abraxas Malfoy sat in the flying carriage heading to Lord Manor, looking at his son sitting opposite him with a serious face.

"Don't worry, father. I will never let Lord down."

In another flying carriage heading to the Lord family, Sirius Black was dissatisfied and loudly protesting to his mother when she asked him to please the head of the Lord family.

"No, why don't you just let Regulus do it! Why me!"

Walburga Black angrily slapped Sirius on the back, "You are the future heir of the Black family! You have to make the Black family glorious in the future. As long as you build a good relationship with that Lord, the Lord will definitely pay attention to the Black family. This will be our chance to surpass the Malfoy family!"

Regulus Black sat in the corner of the carriage and tried several times to ease the relationship between his mother and his brother, but to no avail.

The two of them quarreled all the way to the castle gate.

The Malfoy father and son, who had just arrived on the other side, saw Black and his mother and son. Abraxas Malfoy nodded slightly and greeted Walburga Black politely and proudly.

Lucius Malfoy beside him also imitated his father and proudly greeted the Black brothers in an aria-like tone.

Sirius Black looked at the two adults' hypocritical greetings. When he heard the voice of Lucius Malfoy, a trace of disgust appeared on his cynical face. He sneered and said sarcastically, "Tsk, arrogant Malfoy."

Regulus Black, who was behind Sirius Black, quickly pulled his brother's sleeve. Seeing Lucius Malfoy's increasingly ugly expression opposite him, he took a few steps forward to stand in front of his brother and apologized to Lucius.

Sirius Black was dissatisfied with his brother's behavior. He shook off his brother's hand that was pulling his sleeve and strode into the castle.

Walburga Black looked angrily at his eldest son who only caused trouble, awkwardly gave Abraxas Malfoy a polite smile, ended the conversation hastily, and walked into the castle with Regulus Black.

Lucius saw the Black family leave and opened his mouth to complain to his father, "Father, this Sirius Black..."

Abraxas Malfoy tapped the ground with the snake-head cane in his hand, "Luke, remember the etiquette of the Malfoy family." He curled the corners of his mouth in disdain, "He is just incapable of accomplishing anything, don't pay attention to him."

There were a lot of people in the hall, and many of those who heard the news brought their children who were about the same age as Wenxiu Lord, hoping to use their children to establish a relationship with the young head of the Lord family.

Sirius Black couldn't suppress his contempt and disgust for the people around him, and his impression of Wenxiu Lord, whom he had never met, was extremely negative.

In the more than two months since the news of Wenxiu Lord's return was announced, some short-sighted forces have been secretly trying to eliminate the last and only heir of the Lord family.

However, none of the people sent out survived, and those who thought they were doing things in secret all disappeared the next day. The forces they belonged to were subsequently subjected to all-round pressure from the Lord family and eventually fell apart.

Those who were still watching naturally did not dare to take any action. They could only wait until today's banquet to get to know this young head of the family.

As soon as 8 o'clock passed, melodious music began to sound in the auditorium.

Wenxiu Lord and Severus walked down the stairs in the center of the hall side by side. Countless eyes fell on them. After seeing that there were two people coming down the stairs, their expressions were obviously more surprised.

No one here knows what Wenxiu Lord looks like. At this moment, they see two people. They glance back and forth between the two, trying to figure out who is the protagonist today.

Sirius Black was leaning against the wall in the corner with a cupcake in his hand. He heard the discussions around him and looked up.

In an instant, he felt his heart stopped beating. The silver-haired boy was so beautiful, with curved eyebrows and eyes that looked very gentle. Although the lights around were bright, Sirius Black felt that everything around him had dimmed, and all the light fell on the boy.

There is an annoying black-haired boy next to the boy.

At this time, the silver-haired boy spoke, "Welcome everyone, I am Wenxiu Lord..."

If he had a time-twister, he would definitely go back and find a way to slap himself. Sirius Black could no longer hear any voices from Wenxiu Lord or the people around him. He could only hear a voice in his heart shouting:

'You want to put your surname after this person's name.'

Until the end of the introduction, when applause and compliments rang out all around, Sirius Black did not take his eyes off Wenxiu Lord for even a moment.

Severus had been standing next to Wenxiu Lord, scanning the expressions and reactions of the people around him. When he saw a platinum-haired boy, he frowned subconsciously in displeasure at his gorgeous attire and his arrogant expression.

When his eyes swept over Sirius Black, he saw that he was staring at the person beside him, and his inner alarm bells rang, and he blocked the figure of Wenxiu Lord without leaving a trace.

Sirius Black looked at Severus who was in the way, and their eyes met, creating a strong spark.

After confirming through eye contact that they were people who disliked each other, he looked away with disgust, greeted Regulus Black beside him, and walked towards the focal point of the crowd.

When Walburga Black saw his eldest son take the initiative to step forward, he thought that he had finally come to his senses, and looked at Sirius's back with satisfaction.

It is true that he has finally gotten wise, but this wisdom was opened by Cupid’s arrow.

Lucius Malfoy looked at Vincent Lord and developed a lot of affection for this beautiful young man. He really fits the Malfoy family's aesthetic standards. Even without the lord and his father's request, he still wanted to be friends with the young man.

Seeing how Vinciu Lord handled himself with ease in front of the leaders of various family forces, Lucius Malfoy's gray eyes brightened.

Wenxiu Lord looked at the increasing number of people gathering around him. Although he had expected this when he saw the list of invited guests, he still felt a bit of a headache.

The smile on his face was exactly the same as Sebastian's, both were professional fake smiles, but his smile was more hypocritical.

In addition to those who flattered him and tested him, there were also some people who were trying to find out about Severus' background, such as Abraxas Malfoy.

"I wonder which family this young man belongs to."

Wenxiu Lord looked directly into Abraxas's beautiful gray eyes, with a proper smile on his face, "Severus Snape, my dear friend."

Abraxas Malfoy nodded slightly, "I see, this is my son, Lucius Malfoy."

Lucius Malfoy stepped forward and performed standard aristocratic etiquette towards Wenxiu Lord, "Hello, Mr. Lord."

The others on the side were so jealous when they saw that the Malfoy family had carried out their plan first that they were about to bite their back teeth to pieces. However, Voldemort was so powerful now, and as his confidants, the other families could only endure it.

Severus did not miss the hint of disgust in Abraxas Malfoy's eyes when he heard his name, nor did he see the calculation in his eyes when he heard "best friend".

He disliked this handsome and delicate man as much as his son.

Wenxiu Lord noticed Severus's slightly frowned brow, and quietly held Severus' hand behind his back in a soothing manner.

Although he wanted to take a closer look at the young Lucius Malfoy, he didn't want to keep chatting with Abraxas Malfoy, who was known as the last Slytherin in the Malfoy family, not to mention that there was Voldemort behind this man.

He perfunctorily exchanged some Tai Chi words with Abraxas Malfoy and dismissed the other nobles who wanted to introduce their daughters to him.

Wenxiu Lord found an excuse to take Severus away from the crowd.

He happened to meet Sirius Black, who was trying to squeeze into the crowd.
