Just as Vincent had guessed, his parents did indeed make up.
Using the hotel's open kitchen, the three ladies prepared a large table full of exquisite dishes in different styles.
Eric, who was infinitely humbled last night, straightened his back today and enjoyed the royal treatment from his wife Evelyn.
"Darling, come on, open your mouth."
They're an old married couple, yet they still do this in front of the kids.
Chris, filled with envy, glanced at Jane, who was smiling without saying a word, and quietly gave Eric a thumbs up.
As the saying goes, "A great man can bend and stretch, and endure what ordinary people cannot."
After the storm comes the sunshine, just don't get too carried away.
Evelyn spoiled Eric so much not only because she was in a good mood, just like Hermione, but also because she wanted to help him regain the face he had lost in the early morning.
When couples know how to compromise, their families will be happy and harmonious.
This certainly taught Vincent a good lesson.
He didn't get married in his previous life and couldn't understand the responsibility of supporting a family at all.
He also quietly gave his father a thumbs up.
Eric did not get carried away; after lunch, he made himself some tea.
The first glass is for Evelyn, who worked the hardest today, and the second glass is for myself, who worked the hardest last night.
The Wayne couple's public display of affection forced the remaining four to ignore them.
Chris is a seasoned fan and is quite interested in Quidditch, which is also a "ball" sport.
Vincent and he had a very lively conversation.
How strong is the England national team?
"Uh... it's similar to a national football team."
No expectations are the best expectations...
Chris took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.
One of the four great myths in football is that the England team is very strong.
They have never lacked big-name stars, yet they have never won the European Cup, and they have almost never even won a penalty shootout.
Vincent changed the subject at the right moment, "Uncle Chris, you should know the rules of Quidditch, right?"
"I've only glanced at it a little."
"Oh, I see. Then let me tell you about some fun things that happened during my school competitions..."
Marcus the Marcus, Draco the foul-mouthed, the agile twins, the devilish coach Wood ... and finally, the treacherous Snape.
Vincent's little stories made Chris laugh non-stop.
They couldn't win even after using all sorts of underhanded tactics; the Slytherin Quidditch Team was even worse than the England team.
However, Hermione, who was sitting quietly to the side, felt that it wasn't that the Slytherin Quidditch Team was too bad, but rather that Vincent was simply too strong.
He can easily suppress three Chaser, and even with two Beater added, he can still handle the situation with ease.
In her opinion, her boyfriend was even better than those Quidditch stars.
It's a pity he had absolutely no interest in professional football, otherwise he would definitely have become the most dazzling superstar.
Hermione took a small sip of rose tea and suddenly realized that it was actually quite nice that her boyfriend hadn't become a superstar.
Almost every star Quidditch player has a huge female fanbase, and their boyfriends are not only more skilled but also more handsome. Their suitors could probably stretch from the English Channel to the Seine.
Time passed slowly, and it was time for afternoon tea to end.
The Wayne couple returned to their old ways and stopped acting like young lovers.
Eric approached Vincent, wanting to visit the Bugatti Factory.
Chris became interested as well, and the three of them drove away from the hotel.
With the men absent, the women naturally wouldn't be left out.
They were sharing their shopping haul from yesterday, and Evelyn's shopping bags, which nearly filled half the room, gave Jane and Hermione quite a fright.
No wonder there's such a big argument; all of these things combined could probably buy half a sports car.
However, Evelyn didn't buy all of them for herself; nearly half of them were for the two of them.
Jane usually dresses very seriously, probably because of her profession as a dentist. Yesterday's shopping spree only resulted in buying some professional formal wear.
Evelyn has a very discerning eye; almost all the clothes and dresses she chooses are sleeveless, which perfectly suits her capable and sophisticated style.
"These clothes are too expensive to take, wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to accept them?"
"It's alright. Our two families have such a good relationship, it would be wrong for you not to accept it."
Jane and Hermione thought about it and agreed that she was right.
In the past, we definitely wouldn't have accepted it.
But now that both families' children are dating, it's not a problem to give them slightly more expensive gifts.
While the ladies changed outfits, the men were examining the prototype car like children in the Bugatti Factory's laboratory.
This is a dream car with a top speed of 417 km/h. Even though it's difficult to drive at such a crazy speed, it can't stop Eric and Chris from loving it.
Vincent was the most excited and thrilled.
Luca has already given him a thick set of design drawings, detailing the precise dimensions of every single screw, so he can build the car of his dreams at any time.
But before that, he had to go to the Ministry of Magic in various Europe countries.
After returning from the factory and having dinner, he went to his room alone to replan his itinerary.
Europe has a total of 45 countries, but it does not have 45 Ministry of Magic.
What does the division of Muggle nations have to do with wizards?
Many magical governments govern two countries, and some even three or four.
For example, the Austrian Ministry of Magic governed Hungary, Czech Republic, and Slovakia, all former members of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
There are a total of 27 magical governments. Even if you spend some time visiting 3 of them every day, it will only take less than 10 days.
"Knock knock—"
Vincent got up and opened the door.
As soon as the door opened, Crookshanks, who was in Hermione's arms, jumped onto him.
She shouted angrily, "Crookshanks, don't go too far!"
"Meow—" It jumped back into her arms.
Vincent reached out and touched Crookshanks face. "Little guy, did you miss me?"
Hermione sighed helplessly, "Ever since it spent the night in your room that day, it has been constantly trying to come and find you. This time, I really don't know what to do with it."
Vincent, both amused and exasperated, picked up Crookshanks and led her into the room.
"Let the little guy stay with me tonight. Gu Gu went to my mom's place anyway."
A hint of envy seemed to flash in Hermione's eyes.
She shook her head somewhat awkwardly, "That's good, it'll save it from causing trouble in my room again."
Vincent felt there was something strange about her tone.
Is he jealous? Jealous of his own pet?
He suppressed a laugh and looked at Hermione sitting on the edge of the bed.
Wow—she's still pouting, looks like she's really jealous.
He put Crookshanks on the bed and gently patted its head to make it behave and not run around.
Then he leaned down and whispered in Hermione's ear, "Actually, you could stay here overnight."
She stood up abruptly as if struck by lightning, "I... I'd better go back first."
Vincent grabbed her small hand. "I was just kidding, you didn't take it seriously, did you?"
Hermione lowered her head, avoiding his eyes. "Why... why have you been teasing me all this time?"
Vincent leaned closer to her ear again, "Because I like you, and I want to know how you'll react."
Hermione mustered her courage and looked up, meeting his curious, deep blue eyes.
Is my reaction unusual?
"It's slightly different from what I expected."
She tiptoed and gently kissed Vincent on the cheek.
"How about this?"
He touched his face blankly, "It shouldn't be... special, right?"
Hermione's face lit up with a hint of smugness, and she winked at him playfully, "Your reaction right now is quite unique, I really like it."
Vincent shook his head with a wry smile.
He was actually teased by his girlfriend in the opposite direction.
But he quickly grinned mischievously, "Well, you've really gotten incredibly bold lately."
Hermione didn't have time to dodge and was held tightly in his arms.
"You... you want to do this to me..."
He suddenly sealed her lips with his.
Gradually, she took the initiative to wrap her arms around his neck and respond enthusiastically.
Crookshanks, sitting obediently on the bed, shyly raised its paws to cover its eyes.
