Elwyn could feel Hermione trembling in his arms, and her long eyelashes involuntarily became moist.
Just like last time, her moist lips were cold and sweet, with the unique fragrance of a girl.
At first, because of her shock, Hermione instinctively resisted, but she quickly responded.
Even though there were thousands of eyes staring at them, Elwyn and Hermione had clearly entered a state of oblivion.
Harry, Ron, and Ginny, who were the closest to them, also stared at them in a daze, not daring to believe what they were seeing.
After a few seconds, when Elwyn pulled Hermione, whose face could not be any redder, out of the auditorium, screams and whistles could be heard incessantly.
Everyone was discussing this matter excitedly, looking at the backs of the two of them in disbelief.
This was definitely a heavyweight news, and the rumors about Elwyn and Hermione spread quickly within the castle.
"Elwyn actually kissed Hermione in front of so many people!" Harry said in shock, as if he had just reacted.
"I just want to know, other than Elwyn and Neville, who did Hermione promise?" Ron said.
"She didn't promise anyone!" Ginny replied, "She didn't intend to attend the ball."
"What, but …"
"Anyone who heard you say those infuriating words would say the same thing." Ginny said bluntly, "You're just judging people by their appearance, Ron. Regardless of other aspects, you just want to pick the most beautiful girl to be your dance partner, so Hibiscus Chinensis rejected you."
"Come on, I already said that no one invited her, Hermione only said that to …"
"Hermione is much more outstanding than you think. She is a good girl. You guys never pay attention to the girls around you, so you will never realize this!" Ginny said angrily. She quickly glanced at Harry. "It's not like nobody invited Hermione. She even got an invitation from Krum. Long before Professor Meg announced that the school was going to hold a Christmas party, Demstrong and his gang already knew about it!"
"Oh my god, Krum?!" Ron looked at Ginny in surprise. "This is ridiculous. Hermione never mentioned this."
"Why would she tell you!" Ginny replied with dissatisfaction.
"So, Hermione accepted Krum's invitation?"
"Whether Hermione accepts other people's invitation or not is her private matter. We have no right to talk about it!" Ginny continued. "But I just told you, she actually didn't accept anyone's invitation. Hermione originally didn't plan to attend the Christmas party. She told me all about it!"
"But, why?" The expression on Ron's face became more and more surprised. He looked at Ginny in disbelief. "Everyone is looking forward to the Christmas party, but Hermione actually didn't want to go. She even rejected Krum. What's wrong with her?!"
"It's because of Elwyn!" Ginny said angrily. "Hibiscus Chinensis came to Hermione, hoping to let Elwyn be her sister Gabri's dance partner. Although they haven't reached the fourth grade yet, she will beg Mrs. Maxim to let them attend the party."
"Hibiscus Chinensis went to beg Hermione to talk about this?!" Harry and Ron felt that their brains were not enough to process this.
What exactly was going on? From what Jenny had said, the matter of inviting a partner was far more complicated than they had imagined.
"That woman talked to Hermione alone. No one knows what they talked about," Ginny said angrily. "Anyway, after that, Hermione didn't plan to attend the party! She has been hesitating and avoiding Elwyn. She was hesitating whether she should be with Elwyn. But after what happened today, she should have made up her mind! "
There was still a lot of discussion in the auditorium. Harry and Ron were still digesting the shocking news they had just heard from Ginny.
No matter what everyone thought, in a word, the kiss between Elwyn and Hermione at dinner time suddenly became the hottest topic in the castle, second only to the Christmas party. It had been discussed for a long time.
After leaving the auditorium with Hermione, Elwyn walked to an empty corridor. He was ready to have a good talk with Hermione.
Hermione's behavior was a little strange recently. Why did she keep avoiding him and accept other people's invitation?!
This was too abnormal. It was not like Hermione at all!
Especially after knowing that Hermione had accepted other people's invitation, Elwyn was very angry and felt betrayed.
He would rather believe that Hermione had cursed the Soul Snatching Curse, taken an aphrodisiac, or even impersonated by someone else with a compound decoction than to believe that Hermione would accept other people's invitation. This was simply impossible. It was a major event that completely shattered his worldview.
In the face of Elwyn's strength, Hermione's current behavior was very girlish, not at all like usual.
She shyly looked at Elwyn beside her and quickly looked away.
Elwyn's current behavior made her feel like she had done something wrong.
At the thought of him kissing her just now, Hermione's face blushed uncontrollably.
Elwyn actually dared to come up and kiss her in front of all the students …
Hermione swore that she would remember that scene in the auditorium for the rest of her life and would never forget it.
Especially when she thought of how she took the initiative to respond to Elwyn, her mind went blank.
Hermione never thought that her relationship with Elwyn could reach this stage.
The relationship between the two started from the Hogsmeade werewolf incident a year ago and made substantial progress last Christmas.
After experiencing many things, she chose to avoid this relationship most of the time for a whole year.
Hermione could find enough reasons for herself every time, such as the speed of progress was too fast, she and Elwyn were best friends and she could not break this relationship, Elwyn was a year younger than her, his magic strength was so outstanding, and …
As Elwyn's reputation grew, the gap between the two became more and more obvious.
Hermione had never let go of these worries and had thought of retreating countless times along the way.
The more she looked at something, the more she was afraid of losing it.
For example, she received an invitation from Krum at the beginning of December for the Christmas ball.
Hermione was very surprised at the time, she did not think that Krum would invite her.
It was a weekend night. Krum got rid of the girls who were chasing him and took the initiative to sit next to her.
He told Hermione that he came to the library every day just to talk to her, but he could not muster the courage.
He also said that he had fallen for her ever since they first met at the Quidditch World Cup.
Of course, Hermione did not accept Krum's invitation and did not plan to develop any relationship with him.
However, after a few interactions, she felt that Krum was not as bad as she thought he was. They could be friends, and they discussed many things about Durmstrang and magic.
Of course, from the beginning to the end, Hermione did not have any thoughts about Krum, let alone become his dance partner.
