Harry Potter: Public Engagement?

Harry and his friends' excuses clearly did not escape Ginny's sharp eyes.

They were then scolded for quite a while.

But it's hard to say whether it's a blessing or a curse.

For some reason, news of Harry's 'marriage' spread throughout Hogwarts again.

Forty minutes after they started talking.

However, this also meant that Ginny didn't have time to scold Harry.

She transformed from Mrs. Weasley back into a little lamb, nestled in Harry's arms, her face as red as a monkey's bottom.

"I don't understand, how did they all know!"

"I specifically asked Hermione and the others, Myrtle went straight back to the girls' bathroom without saying a word!" Ron said angrily, sitting on the floor in the Ravenclaw common room.

What annoyed Ron even more was that Hermione and the others thought he was interested in Myrtle!

"Yes, I noticed when I came to find you that there wasn't a single portrait in the place where you were staying."

"Surely some ghost is just bored and hiding to eavesdrop?" Draco had returned to the Ravenclaw Common Room after a long absence, was also sitting on the carpet.

Not far away, Ryan, who was playing Wizard's Chess with Luna, kept his achievements hidden.

Ryan didn't consider himself a petty person; he just had an exceptionally good memory.

Just like ordinary people don't hold a grudge against someone they were scolded as a child and then meet them again years later.

Because of the hatred at the time, the pain has long been smoothed over by time.

But if you have a good memory, especially someone like Ryan, then it's as if you just experienced it.

So, it's understandable that Ryan would cause trouble for Harry whenever he thinks of him.

However, this is only the prelude.

Here comes the climax.

The flapping sound is the sound of an owl's wings.

A round, Long-Eared Owl flew in through the arched window.

"It's Pigwidgeon!" Harry exclaimed before Ron and the others.

He almost pushed Ginny out of his arms.

"Don't worry, Dad and the others probably won't find out so soon. Maybe they're just trying to discuss how to celebrate Christmas," Ginny said against her will.

She knew that Percy must have told her father and the others about her and Harry a long time ago.

"Harry is for you!" Ron looked at Pigwidgeon in surprise as she flew toward Harry.

Just as Harry's heart was in his throat, Pigwidgeon flew into Ginny's arms.

"Thank goodness, it wasn't me." The sudden and surprising discovery left Harry stunned.

One thing he hadn't expected was why Ginny would receive a letter from home at this particular time.

But Ginny clearly had an idea, and she shakily removed the letter tied to Pigwidgeon's foot.

However, this made Pigwidgeon tilt her head: This female human usually rubs my head, why is she different today?

My daughter Ginny

Dear Ginny, I received some great news from Percy: you and Harry are dating, and we're so happy. But please be discreet and don't rush things. However, I understand your insistence on marrying Harry. Your father and I support you. If possible, bring Harry home this Christmas; I'll have Sirius hold an engagement ceremony at both our house and his.

Your mother Molly Weasley Weasley

"Mom and the others know!" Ginny's face turned pale.

As she read the contents of the letter, she hesitated again, wondering whether she should show it to Harry.

If she doesn't show it to Harry and unilaterally decides on the engagement, then their engagement is a done deal.

To her family, she could say that Harry and she were getting married.

Tell Harry that her family has invited Harry to spend the summer vacation with them.

Regarding Sirius's wedding plans, she said Harry was a bit confused and that he should just arrange the wedding himself without writing a letter.

But there was one thing Ginny overlooked.

That's because she'd been spacing out for too long.

Harry might be polite enough not to peek, but Ron wouldn't.

Ron picked up the letter, his face turning from white to red, then back to white. His expression shifted from worry to anger, and finally to a mixture of amusement and disbelief.

"Merlin's beard! Mom and Dad know about it too!" ("No!" Ginny quickly stopped her.)

"Why not— Harry, they think you and Ginny are getting married!"

"We should arrange an engagement like Draco's father and the others did for Draco and Pansy!" Ron looked around, lowered his head, and said in a low voice.

"Why am I being dragged into this again!" Draco cursed.

"Wait! You didn't deny it!" Harry realized the blind spot!

When are you getting engaged?

"Want to come with Harry?" Ron, in his eagerness to mock Draco, almost forgot his other identity— Ginny's brother.

"The focus right now isn't on the engagement!"

"You've all forgotten our true purpose—to tell Dumbledore about Harry's nightmare!" Draco's eyes darted around.

"We haven't forgotten."

"I can go directly to Hagrid." That was Harry.

"I can write back to my father; Pigwidgeon is right here." This was Ron.

"Yes, engagement is a good thing. When is your engagement?" Even Ginny's demeanor changed.

"Okay, okay, I'm already engaged!"

"On the third day after we went to Harry's house," Draco said dejectedly.

"But so what?"

"Of the four of us here, it seems like you're the only single one, Ron."

"Not to mention engagement!" Draco squinted at the only single guy in the area.

"What engagement?!"

"I haven't agreed to them taking things further yet," Ron said, waving the letter.

A gentle breeze, seemingly from nowhere, blew it away just in time, without Ron noticing it as he was caught up in his excitement.

The letter drifted and drifted until it landed in the hands of Lisa Turpin, the most gossipy little witch in Ravenclaw, second only to Kate.

"Dad and the others all agreed, who do you think you are!" Ginny curled her lip in disdain.

"I—" Ron began to look at his right hand as if waking from a dream.

There was nothing there.

Ron: Aba aba.

"What's wrong now? Speechless?" Ginny pressed her advantage.

She wanted to kill herself for speaking up for Ron just a few days ago.

"No—no, didn't you guys notice, Xin—" Ron took a few deep breaths before clearing his tongue.

"Letter!"

"Where did it go?" Harry jumped up, but Ginny, pulled by inertia, was still clinging to him tightly—like a koala.

"Lisa Turpin!"

"How could it be her!"

"We're doomed!" The four looked towards the distance.

Beside the fireplace, Lisa Turpin and several of her close Ravenclaw girls from different grades were looking at something.

At that moment, just as they were looking at Lisa and the others, Lisa and the others also turned their heads.

In their eyes, Harry was holding Ginny and gesturing to them.

Is Harry Potter about to announce his engagement?

Lisa thought to herself that since they had a good relationship, she wanted to help keep the news a secret.
