Chapter 1449 Quarrel
After Ivan, Harry also agreed!
He is still somewhat reluctant, and this kind of social activity is a great burden for him. m..
Ron, on the other hand, became furious immediately after Hermione and Elaine's invitation.
He was still bitter that Slughorn hadn't invited him to the party, and every time the incident was brought up he was unhappy.
This has been the case a few times before, and almost every invitation can make him sullen for days.
"Needless to say, this evening is dedicated to Slughorn's favourites?!" he said.
"Yes, it's specially held for the Slug Club." Hermione seemed to find it quite interesting, and added, "But I didn't invent the name, everyone..."
"The Slug Club?!" Ron interrupted Hermione, and continued, "It's ugly, but it's true, a party for slugs, that's why his club is called the Slug Club. "
"Come on, Ron!" said Harry, poking him.
There was something wrong with the atmosphere. Based on Ivan's understanding of Hermione, Ron's endless words definitely angered her.
At this moment, she was glaring angrily at Ron on the other side of the table.
"You're jealous because Slughorn didn't invite you!" said Hermione sharply, "but it's not our fault."
"Me, jealous?! No, do you think I would like to attend the slug's party?!" Ron said loudly, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, "I'm not interested, not at all. Anyway, best wishes You have fun at the party, maybe Slughorn can make you the slug king and queen."
He stood up abruptly, and everyone around him looked at him in surprise.
"Okay, you two!" Ivan said, indicating that this matter is over, "Sit down, Ron!"
He knew very well how sensitive Ron was on this kind of matter, and Hermione's words just now were too sharp.
But it can't blame her, it's the truth.
Besides, Ron's previous remarks really made people sound uncomfortable.
What kind of party is dedicated to entertaining slugs? Everyone knows that Slughorn's club is called the Slug Club because the word in his name means the same as slugs, not all members of the club are slugs.
And the slug king and queen thing, the metaphor is so hurtful!
It wasn't their fault that Ron wasn't invited to the party...
"You guys eat, I'm going to find Lavender." Ron said with a flushed face, without going to see Ivan and Hermione.
"We're allowed to take guests!" said Hermione, blushing too. "I was about to invite you, and since you think the party is so boring, I won't bother!"
Hearing her words, Ron's body, who was about to leave, visibly stiffened.
But he didn't look back in the end, and walked away!
"Let him calm down by himself for a while, and he'll be fine," said Harry, looking at Ron's back helplessly.
Ron had refused to be with them since this incident.
Harry tried to persuade him to apologize to Hermione, but to little effect.
As for Hermione, she seemed calm on the surface, as if nothing had happened, but in fact, when only she and Ivan were left, this guy cried uncontrollably, crying in a mess, and said to Ivan a lot.
Well, Hermione has always been like that.
Strongness and everything are just appearances, but the heart is actually as sensitive as other girls.
She just doesn't show it easily, that's Hermione.
It looks calm on the surface, but the heart is actually chaotic and turbulent.
After some meeting, the surface is messy, but in the heart it is determined.
Just like in the first grade, because of Harry and Ron's ridicule and targeting, Hermione ran to the girls' bathroom and cried secretly for a long time on Halloween, and didn't even attend the party. Until Harry and Ron finally rescued her, the three Talented people become good friends.
It wasn't a big deal, and Hermione and Ron had quarreled countless times over the years.
In the end, they will reconcile as before. The two people's personalities are like this. In fact, neither of them has any good intentions.
But there were no trolls this time, and it seemed Ron was going to carry on without apologizing.
In fact, he's been in a bad mood lately.
After this incident, he hardly interacted with Ivan, Hermione, and Elaine.
Not long after that, he had another big fight with Ginny, which was known to the whole academy.
The cause of the incident lies with Katie Bell. Although Professor McGonagall said that she would recover before the first Quidditch match, Katie's parents insisted that she go to St. Mungo's Magical Injury Hospital for examination. Will not be discharged anytime soon.
This means that the promising Gryffindor Quidditch team that Harry has been carefully training since September is missing a Chaser. Refusing to replace Katie.
He wanted Katie to come back, had expectations for it.
But seeing that the first match against Slytherin was approaching, he finally had to admit that Katie would not be able to come back to play in time.
For this reason, Harry personally invited several people to join the team temporarily, such as Ivan's roommate Vicky Frobisher, etc., but his invitations were all rejected, and finally he had to choose Dean Thomas. He did well in selection.
In order to invite Dean, Harry also made a difficult choice.
Because Harry’s other roommate and Dean’s best friend, Seamus, is also very interested in Quidditch. His Quidditch level is similar to that of Dean. dissatisfied.
Harry knew it would be like this. The reason why he didn't want Dean to participate in the competition was because he knew Seamus would be unhappy, but he had to put the interests of the team first. Seamus hurry up.
Seamus wasn't alone in his displeasure with Harry's choice of Dean to replace Katie.
There was a lot of discussion in the common room about Harry's selection of two roommates to join the team. Let alone Dean, who was not recognized by everyone, Ron, as the team's goalkeeper, has long been questioned about his performance and level.
Many people said that Ron was able to enter the team mainly because of Harry's special care.
Cormac McLaggen, in particular, talked about it everywhere. The main reason why he lost the election was because he was deliberately targeted by Elaine and Ginny, and the performance of the broomstick was not as good as that of the Asterisker and the Firebolt. It's not that his level is bad.
But this guy's character is really bad, and he's talking about Harry cheating and cheating to get Ron and Dean into the team.
Many people still have sympathy for what happened to him, which led to the game not yet started, and the pressure on Harry and his team is increasing, and he must ensure victory in the upcoming game against Slytherin. If Gryffindor had won, the whole house would have forgotten they criticized him, and would have claimed they knew it was a great team. But once you lose, the consequences will be unimaginable...
Harry was okay with that, he'd put up with much worse talk than this since school, so he didn't particularly take it personally.
On the other hand, Ron, I don't know if it was because of these discussions or because of that morning's incident, his mood became more and more unstable.
Because I seldom saw him recently, Ivan and Hermione knew this from Harry's narration...
