Coming out from Hagrid's place, Elwyn saw Gabri waving at him from near Boosbottom's carriage.
She still hadn't chosen her dance partner, but she did express that she wanted to be with Elwyn.
Unfortunately, the two of them weren't old enough to attend the dance without an invitation from a fourth-year student.
This was tradition. Even though Gabri was Boosbottom's student, she was not an exception.
As for Gabri's older sister, Hibiscus Chinensis, there were more and more boys surrounding her.
Almost half of the boys who didn't have a dance partner were waiting for Hibiscus Chinensis to choose. Perhaps because there were too many people, she hadn't made a final decision yet.
Of course, with Elwyn's understanding of Hibiscus Chinensis, she might have felt that doing this was very interesting.
Making the boys fall head over heels for her beauty, attracting everyone's attention, and the jealousy of the girls …
It had to be said that she was very successful.
Even if she chose someone in the end, it wasn't because she really had feelings for him.
Due to the influence of the Seductress's bloodline, Hibiscus Chinensis was very similar to Seductress when it came to choosing the opposite sex.
Before meeting someone she truly liked, she would actively attract the attention of other men, but she wouldn't be moved.
Men who were infatuated with Seductress would forget everything else in the world. They wouldn't eat, drink, or sleep. If they were unlucky enough to be among Seductresses while they were dancing, they would dance non-stop until they died of exhaustion.
In history, the number of male wizards who died because they were infatuated with Seductress was not a small number.
Of course, if she met a man she truly liked, Seductress would stay with him for the rest of her life. She was very loyal.
Based on this, Hibiscus Chinensis's criteria for choosing a partner should be about the same.
Elwyn couldn't see any boy in the Hogwarts that could satisfy Hibiscus Chinensis. She had high standards.
A few nights ago, when sending Gabri back, Hibiscus Chinensis had jokingly expressed that she was willing to let Elwyn be her dance partner.
Elwyn immediately refused. He did not want to be like the boys in school who were played by Hibiscus Chinensis …
After informing Harry and Ron, he walked towards Gabriel.
"I don't understand. Elwyn has many choices. Why must he insist on Hermione?" Ron said. "He has rejected many good girls these days."
His gaze followed the direction in which Elwyn was moving and finally landed on Boosbottom's carriage.
"Hermione is actually not bad. Besides, haven't they been together for a long time?!" Harry said.
"No, I heard from Ginny that Hermione talked to her about it. They didn't make any progress." Ron said as he continued to stare at Boosbottom's carriage. "You know, Hermione is older than Elwyn. She is also not beautiful. She has been hesitating …"
The two of them had made rapid progress in the beginning. However, when it came to the crucial moment, they retreated, especially when it came to Hermione.
Elwyn and Hermione were too smart. Sometimes, thinking too much was not a good thing.
"We don't have to worry about Elwyn. We should think more about ourselves." Ron continued. "I never thought it would be so difficult to find a dance partner …"
Hagrid's words made Ron a little anxious. He did not want to be the only one without a dance partner.
If that was really the case, it would be too embarrassing. He was a warrior!
Look at the other warriors. Weren't they surrounded by a group of people?!
Needless to say, Krum was very famous and popular with the girls. Ron also admired him very much.
However, it was the same for Diggory. Although he did not perform well in the first round, he was very handsome and popular. He was a warrior loved by almost everyone. Many girls liked him. However, in Ron's opinion, Diggory was actually a useless handsome guy. His brain was not even enough to fill an eggshell.
"Yes, we have to act. Ron, we don't have much time left!" Harry said and made up his mind. "Especially you. Elwyn and I will not make a fool of ourselves without a dance partner. However, you should dance with the other warriors first."
"You are right. We have to bite the bullet and go all out!" Ron took a deep breath. He sounded as if they were planning to break into an impregnable fortress. "When we return to the common room tonight, we must find a dance partner. That's it!"
"Well, okay," said Harry.
The two of them went their separate ways. Harry did not know who Ron's target was, but his mind was clearly filled with Autumn Zhang.
He only needed to ask Autumn Zhang one sentence alone and invite her to the ball. It was that simple …
.....
When it was almost dinner time, Elwyn and Gabriel separated and returned to the castle.
He met Luna in the hall. Needless to say, she did not find a dance partner.
Luna did not care. She did not care about the Christmas ball at all.
She gave Elwyn a message. Harry had just invited Autumn Zhang to the ball at Ravenclaw Tower, but was rejected.
After Elwyn rejected Autumn, Autumn had accepted Cedric's invitation.
It was conceivable that Harry should be very depressed now and needed someone to comfort him …
But when Elwyn walked into the hall, he was surprised to see Ron sitting in a distant corner with a pale face.
Harry and Ginny sat beside him and spoke to him in a very low voice, as if they were comforting him.
The hall was noisy. Malfoy and the others were pointing at Ron at Slytherin's long table, as if they were laughing at him.
"What the hell is going on, Ron?" Elwyn asked as he walked towards the three of them.
Ron looked up at Elwyn with a frightened expression on his face.
"Why did I do that?!" He said in a daze. "I don't know why I did that!"
"What?!"
"He, um, he just invited Hibiscus Chinensis Dracul to the ball with him," replied Harry.
Ginny nodded and seemed to be trying hard not to laugh, but she still patted Ron's arm sympathetically.
"Even if Ron invited Hibiscus Chinensis, why did it become like this?" Elwyn asked.
