Harry Potter: Impossibly Cute

Harry's eyes were full of confusion.

"What's the meaning"

Ling Bai lowered his eyes. The young man's figure was thin and he looked so fragile that he seemed like he would break if the wind blew.

"sorry"

Ling Bai lowered his head, big tears rolling down his cheeks.

"Ling Bai, what's wrong with you? Don't cry. Why do you suddenly want to say sorry?"

Ling Bai just shook his head and cried.

"Potter, what are you doing?"

An angry voice came from a distance.

Then there was the sound of people running quickly.

Before Harry could react, he was pushed and almost fell to the ground.

"Ling Bai, why are you crying? Don't cry, did he bully you?"

Wood was just passing by here casually.

But he saw a figure from afar that looked very much like Ling Bai.

When I walked over to see what was going on, I found that he was crying.

In fact, Wood couldn't think too much and his body reacted instinctively.

“Oliver, I didn’t.”

Ling Bai sobbed and pulled Wood who was about to take action.

"No, no, Oliver, you misunderstood."

"You're crying like this, he must have bullied you."

Ling Bai shook his head.

"No, it's my own problem. Harry didn't bully me."

But Oliver obviously didn't believe it. He felt that it was Harry who threatened Ling Bai.

"Don't be afraid, I will protect you"

Wood pulled Ling Bai behind him and stared at Harry angrily.

"Oliver, you really misunderstood"

Harry was also a little confused.

"Oliver, I'm really fine."

Ling Bai also explained. Oliver looked at the two men suspiciously and indeed did not see any lying expressions on their faces. Only then did he let down his guard a little.

"Really? Then why are you crying like this?"

“It’s just that something happened.”

"What's going on? Do you need my help?"

Ling Bai shook his head and smiled at Oliver.

"Thank you, Oliver, but I can handle this myself."

Oliver felt a little lost.

He wanted the person in front of him to rely on him more.

But the relationship between them has always been neither close nor distant.

"I'm sorry, Harry. I've been under a lot of pressure lately. I guess I scared you just now."

Harry shook his head with worry in his eyes.

"Ling Bai, don't think too much. If my existence puts a lot of pressure on you, it really doesn't matter."

Ling Bai smiled, turned and left.

Ling Bai walked back to the dormitory slowly, and as soon as he entered the lounge, he saw Theodore sitting there.

"Theodore, why aren't you eating at this time?"

"Didn't you go to the cafeteria too?"

Theodore's mouth was slightly swollen, obviously from being beaten by Draco before.

Ling Bai naturally noticed the swollen corners of his mouth, and a hint of apology appeared on his face.

"Sorry, Theodore."

"You don't have to apologize, you didn't hit me."

"Let me find you some ice, come on."

Ling Bai used magic to frost a cup and gently placed his hand against the corner of Theodore's mouth.

"hiss-"

Ling Bai quickly moved closer and blew gently.

“It hurts.”

"Well, a little bit. I don't know why Malfoy suddenly wanted to hit me."

"He...he's just a little spoiled, but he doesn't have bad intentions."

Theodore lowered his eyes.

"I know you have a very good relationship with Malfoy. In fact, I have always been envious of you."

Ling Bai was a little surprised.

"You know, I actually don't have many friends. Most of them approach me with a purpose, and this kind of relationship makes me feel uncomfortable.

So I choose to be alone, but after a while I feel lonely too. When I see you and Draco, I envy you."

Ling Bai's eyes softened little by little, with some heartache in them.

"Theodore, you are actually a very good person. I know that you can accept someone you are not very familiar with. You saved me. If it weren't for you, I don't know what I would do.

If you want to make friends, you can try with me. I am happy to be friends with you."

Theodore was stunned, and a light flashed in his eyes.

"Thank you Ling Bai, but Draco..."

"I will go and talk to Draco."

Ling Bai put down the cup in his hand and took out a handkerchief to wipe the water stains on the corners of Theodore's mouth.

"Okay, are you hungry? Do you want to go eat together? There's still time."

"May I"

Ling Bai couldn't help but smile when he saw Theodore's pitiful look.

This kid is quite smart and knows how to use his strengths.

"Of course, didn't I just say that if we want to be friends, let's start by having a meal together?"

Theodore wanted to laugh, but as soon as he forced a smile, he gasped because of the pain at the corner of his mouth.

"Be careful, this wound may take two or three days to heal."

Ling Bai lifted Theodore's chin and looked at him carefully.

"Well, I will pay attention. Ling Bai, I'm reading a new book on potions recently and I have a few questions I don't understand. Can I ask you when I have time later?"

"sure"

"Then come to my room after dinner. I'm the only one in my dormitory."

Ling Bai was a little confused.

"Aren't all our dormitories double-occupancy?"

"But there are an odd number in our class, and I'm the only one left in my class."

"That's it"

Ling Bai felt even more distressed.

"You are alone at home, and you will be alone at school, Theodore. You must be lonely."

“Well, actually my father never liked me, so he gave me this name, Theodore, maybe because he thought I was redundant.

Even at home, he doesn’t even want to call me by my first name, but by my last name.”

Ling Bai couldn't help but hold his hand.

"No, from now on I won't call you Theodore, I'll just call you Theo, okay?"

Theodore's eyes flickered.

There were tiny pieces of light in his eyes.

"May I"

"Of course, Theo, you are very important to me, so you are not redundant at all"

Theodore held Ling Bai's hand with a little force.

Everything he said just now is indeed true, but he said it deliberately to win sympathy.

But when he heard Ling Bai's words, his heart trembled violently.

He tried to pretend to be delighted, but he couldn't do it.

It's like the long-dry land is getting a little bit of water.

But it's totally not enough.

If you have never experienced being nourished by water, it doesn't seem difficult to continue to dry up.

But once he tasted the sweetness of the water, he could no longer bear it.

He wanted more water to irrigate his land.

"Theo, what's wrong with you?"

Looking at Theodore who suddenly became distracted, Ling Bai felt a little worried.

"It's nothing, it's just the first time someone has said these words to me."

It was the first time someone called him Theo, and it wasn't redundant to him.

Theodore didn't know how to describe his feelings, and seemed to want to cry.

But why are you crying? You should be happy.
