Hogwarts: A Chinese-Style Professor

Chapter 80 If you ask questions sincerely

Chapter 80 If you ask questions sincerely
After seeing off the tearful Filch, Levi was about to return to his office when he bumped into Snape, who had just come out from underground.

"You seem really busy, don't you?"

He maintained his usual terrible tone.

"Snape, you've come at the right time. Would you like to go to dinner together?"

Li Wei ignored his tone and extended the invitation normally.

He had already heard from Joey about Snape's help to him during this time.

As a teacher, I should also express my gratitude.

Furthermore, since he and Snape co-founded the Duel Club, he should also inform him about inviting Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick.

Levi's attitude was very casual, but Snape's expression was as if he were facing a formidable enemy, as if he had heard something unbelievable.

You invited me?

He forced himself to remain calm, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.

"Yes, we used to be classmates, now we're colleagues. There's no need to make our relationship so strained, is there?"

Li Wei walked towards his office on his own, intending to call his two assistants to have dinner in the auditorium together.

Snape followed him on his own initiative, staring at his back the whole time.

After thinking for a while, he asked:
"Was that morning light from you emanating from the castle?"

"It's me. What, you're interested too?"

Li Wei turned around and glanced at him.

Snape shrugged uncomfortably.

"You lucky guy."

He neither admitted that he was interested, nor did he say that he was not interested.

The attitude is as if to say, "Whether you share it or not, I don't care."

"What, is it so hard for you to acknowledge the excellence of others, Snape?"

Snape grinned again after hearing this.

But Li Wei didn't turn around, so he couldn't see it.

Using Transfiguration to open the office door, Li Wei leaned inside and called out:

"Joely, Camille, dinner's ready."

He leaned half his body into the doorway, looking somewhat dazed from behind, a stark contrast to his usual demeanor.

Snape had never seen him like this before and scoffed.

Two assistants quickly came out from inside, and the four of them went to the Great Hall for dinner. Jowell greeted Snape respectfully, raising his chin and giving a soft "hmm," while not forgetting to glance at Levi sideways.

The students passing by shrank back when they saw this strange group, and no one dared to go up and talk to them.

Harry watched Levi's retreating figure from afar, wanting to go up and strike up a conversation—but seeing Snape there, and remembering the way Snape had looked at him earlier, he felt disgusted.
But he really wanted to know about his father. After much deliberation, Harry decided to take the plunge.

"Hey buddy, what's wrong with you? Why are you staring at their backs?"

“Harry, is there something you need to see the professor? Now is not a good time, Snape is right there.”

At the crucial moment, Hermione and Ron pulled him back.

Harry's courage vanished instantly—he knew in his heart that with Snape around, he was destined not to get any information.

He was just too impatient.

"Oh, it's nothing."

Harry told his story.

Hermione and Ron immediately exclaimed, appearing even more excited than he was.

"Your father and Professor Li Wei were classmates!"

"That's amazing!"

Harry didn't think it was anything special—although he was secretly a little happy about it.

Whether his father was connected to Professor Li Wei, or he was able to learn about his father from Professor Li Wei.

"Now is not a good time, Harry."

Hermione offered him advice. "If you want to learn more about your father, you should choose a private setting where you won't be disturbed. This will help you have a proper conversation."

"Well, that's all it can do."

Harry watched Levi's departing figure and sighed.

He had thought that after the last Basilisk incident, his relationship with Professor Levi would become much closer.

Now it seems like we're still stuck in the same place?

Li Wei and his group of four sat down in the teachers' section.

This combination is quite rare outside of holidays.

Li Wei forked a piece of steak and put it in his mouth, savoring the taste with a touch of nostalgia.

During the time he was petrified, although his mind was mostly in a dormant state, he was also awake for a considerable amount of time, essentially having a long lucid dream.

Waking up suddenly at this moment really felt like a lifetime had passed, and everything became fresh again.

The two assistants sat with Levi, while Snape sat alone opposite him, eating in silence.

"Snape, while I was petrified, how did you manage the Dueling Club? Did you follow our established rules properly?"

Snape looked uneasy for a moment.

But he quickly responded coldly:
"Of course, you don't need to worry about what I do."

Li Wei nodded and continued:

"I'm planning to host another large dueling class on Friday night, with Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick as guests."

Snape abruptly turned to stare at Levi, half-standing up with his hands on the table, and said, word by word:

Why didn't anyone tell me about this?

"Didn't I already inform you?"

The atmosphere between the two suddenly became tense.

Li Wei, however, did not pay any attention and continued calmly:

Why do you always lose your temper at the slightest disagreement? Are you under a lot of pressure?

Snape's facial muscles twitched, and he frowned, saying:
"How interesting. You're the one who did things without my permission, yet you're turning around and saying I have a bad temper?"

"This decision was just made. What, are you going to tell me you're going to refuse Professor McGonagall?"

Snape didn't say anything.

Of course he won't.

"This is the last time—strictly speaking, this dueling club was founded by the two of us, but it was initiated by me. I don't like other people interfering, you understand?"

"I see."

"Tsk!"

Snape glared at Levi with displeasure—it was clear from his attitude that he hadn't listened to a word Snape said.

“Aren’t you curious about that light, Snape?”

Sure enough, Li Wei immediately started talking about other topics on his own.

Although this was something Snape was interested in, he was still displeased.

"Yeah, I'm curious, curious if you, lucky lad, have made any further progress. How about it? Would you be so kind as to tell me?"

“Of course—if you really want my advice, I’ll give you suggestions, Snape.”

"."

Snape choked again.

He looked at Li Wei with an uncertain expression, as if he was seriously considering the feasibility of this matter.

Li Wei didn't wait for his response and continued:
