Could Ginny Be...?
The morning mist drifted through the woods.
The early bird chirped its clear, melodious song, and caught another insect to eat.
The early-rising insects let out mournful cries, only to be eaten by birds.
Why add "again"?
Cough cough!
Recently, a large group of uninvited guests have appeared in what should be a peaceful and tranquil forest in Japan.
Walking along the forest path, inhaling the air filled with the fragrance of fresh grass, Bell couldn't help but let out a long, contented sigh.
In the heart of this forest, the Ministry of Magic staff spent an entire year clearing land, setting up Curses, and finally building a Quidditch Pitch that could hold 100,000 people.
The Quidditch Match, held every four years, takes place in that stadium.
Because his parents got full-price tickets, which meant he could watch every game at will, Bell, along with his sister and girlfriend, has been staying here for almost a month.
Anyway, with their magical powers, they can live comfortably anywhere.
And today, August 22nd, the final match of this Quidditch World Cup will be held – Ireland Team vs. Bulgaria Team.
As a result, starting yesterday afternoon, the number of wizards arriving began to surge. This quickly turned the once spacious forest into a crowded area.
Watching another group of wizards noisily approaching and searching for places to set up tents in the somewhat crowded woods, Bell sighed somewhat disappointedly and prepared to return to training.
Suddenly, a group of wizards with distinctive markings appeared in Bell's field of vision.
"Hello, Mr. Arthur, it's been a long time."
The vibrant red filled Bell's vision, and even the tribal chiefs with feathers stuck in their heads that he had seen before did not stand out as much as the Weasley family gathered together.
"Oh! Bell! It's been so long! How have you been? Oh, and Ginny, come here! Come and thank Bell."
Arthur turned to look at his youngest daughter.
Because she gets too shy to get close to Harry, Ginny was walking hand in hand with her mother at the very back of the group.
"I'm so sorry, Bell, I haven't been able to let Ginny thank you properly all this time."
Arthur looked at Bell with a guilty look on his face.
The scene where Bell confronted Dumbledore had deeply shocked him and his wife. So much so that, unsure of Dumbledore's attitude, they dared not approach the Menethil family again.
"You're too kind, Mr. Arthur. As I said, I didn't do anything. Ginny was only safe and sound thanks to her own good fortune."
Despite what Bell said, Molly still pulled Ginny and quickly walked up to Bell.
Molly first gave Bell a warm hug before she spoke:
"Darling, you're always so humble. I wish my sons could be as modest and polite as you."
"No, your children are all very talented. I heard that Percy started working at the Ministry of Magic this year?"
"Yes!"
Molly beams with pride whenever she talks about her son, Percy.
No son was more worry-free for her Percy.
"Alright, let's leave the small talk for later. Ginny, go thank your Bell Senior."
Arthur interrupted his wife and Bell's chatter and urged his little daughter, who was timidly hiding behind him, to hurry up.
Ginny glanced at Bell with a mixture of curiosity and fear. She wasn't sure how she felt about him.
Logically speaking, since the other party saved her life, she should be grateful to them.
However, by the time she was discharged from the hospital, Hogwarts was already on summer vacation. Therefore, she was unable to thank them immediately.
During that summer vacation, she asked her brothers about Bell. From her youngest brother Ron, she learned that Bell was a very annoying and awful bad guy.
At first, Ginny didn't believe Ron. After all, of all her Gege, Ron, who was only a year older than her, was the most unreliable.
However, when she later learned from Ron that Harry also hated Bell, she began to hesitate.
Ginny loves Harry. From a very young age, she has idolized and Harry Harry. This is practically an open secret in the Weasley family.
Therefore, if Harry really hates Bell, then she should seriously consider whether she should get closer to him.
What if Harry misunderstands that she and Bell are close and starts to dislike her because of it?
Therefore, after the start of the second school year, Ginny did not immediately go to thank Bell. While subtly observing Harry's attitude towards Bell, she also secretly investigated information about Bell.
Ultimately, Ginny realized that Harry genuinely disliked Bell's demeanor. Every time they met in the corridor, Harry would lower his head, quicken his pace, and hurry away.
Furthermore, there was the incident later where Bell knocked out the entire school during Quidditch pitch. From then on, Ginny completely avoided Bell.
However, as the saying goes, what is meant to happen will happen. Unexpectedly, when the family came to watch the Quidditch World Cup final, they ran into each other right away in this place with tens of thousands of wizards.
What a coincidence!
Actually, things weren't as coincidental as Ginny thought.
Indeed, the total number of wizards who watched the Quidditch World Cup final reached nearly 100,000.
However, under the Ministry of Magic's arrangement, wizards from different countries and regions were actually assigned to different areas.
Although wizards from other areas would often wander around out of curiosity, most wizards stayed within the vicinity of their own tents.
Therefore, the area where they are now located is mostly inhabited by Britain wizards.
There are fewer than 10,000 wizards in Britain. And not every wizard attends the Quidditch World Cup, so it's not really surprising that Bell would encounter the Weasley family.
"Ginny? What are you thinking about? Hurry up and thank your Bell Senior."
Arthur gently pushed his youngest daughter's back.
He wondered what was wrong with his usually polite youngest daughter today. Why did she start spacing out as soon as she saw Bell?
"Etc!"
Arthur was suddenly startled.
He carefully examined Bell from head to toe, then turned around and gave Harry, who was standing next to Ron and looking at him curiously, a similarly careful look.
'...'
Although he felt a little sorry for little Harry, Arthur had to admit that if he were a girl, he would definitely choose the one in front of him.
Given that Bell had previously saved Ginny's life, could it be that his youngest daughter...
