Everyone stared at Dolly in surprise, and Ravenclaw's prefect Robert Hilliard added, "I can attest that Malfoy is a classic example of someone with a privileged background but no manners."

"But don't worry, he has received the punishment he deserved."

Then he even whispered, "If I had known you were going to join Ravenclaw, I should have looked after you more."

"While we Ravenclaws welcome intelligent eccentrics, you're the first Ravenclaw to resort to violence with your fists."

Dolly returned Robert's smile with a kind smile.

Just as the Sorting Hat said, each house is a big family, and the prefects are the eldest sons or daughters of this family. It is only natural to get along well with them.

Of course, in most cases, the grade leader doesn't have time to get to know and care about each individual student.

If it weren't for the amazing impression Dolly made on him, he wouldn't have even spoken to her.

As the group watched the Sorting Ceremony, they applauded the new family members. Dolly gradually joined in, temporarily putting everything that had just happened behind her.

However, when it was Hermione's turn, Dolly still got nervous.

Although Hermione went to Gryffindor, they could still see each other every day.

After all, anyone can enter Ravenclaw's house lounge as long as they answer the questions.

But Dolly's ideal life would be to wake up with Hermione every day for school and then say goodnight to each other in their pajamas!

Are you two close?

Cho Chang whispered in Dolly's ear, "Is she a neighbor or a classmate in the Muggle world?"

"It's a long story. You can think of us as competitors, but we've gone from being rivals to friends."

Dolly hasn't forgotten her bet with Hermione, but Hermione probably has.

After getting to know Dolly better, Hermione felt that Dolly had absolutely no chance of winning.

After all, Dolly was actually less adept than Harry at learning magic.

"I really envy the relationship between you two."

Cho Chang sighed unconsciously, which made Dolly turn around and look at Cho Chang in surprise, as if she were seeing Cho Chang for the first time.

Qiu Zhang was a little reserved, wondering where he had said something wrong, while Dolly seemed to notice the difference between Qiu Zhang and the Qiu Zhang she remembered.

That is, the current Cho Chang is still a bit reserved, and there is still a considerable gap between her and the intelligent girl in the original story who was loved by all the Ravenclaws.

On one hand, Qiu Zhang is only 12 years old and her appearance has not yet fully developed. She looks more like a delicate little child than a beautiful woman, after all, Asians develop more slowly than Europeans and Americans.

On the other hand, she is probably hiding some of her hobbies and subconsciously restraining her behavior.

This is actually quite normal for Asians, who worry about not being able to integrate into a foreign country and think twice before they say or do anything.

But this will backfire; a generous and easygoing person is more popular wherever they go.

Being too timid can make you the one who gets bullied, just like Neville in Harry's year and Wormtail in Snape's year, who were like that at the beginning.

Perhaps the only thing missing from the current Cho Chang character compared to the one in the original story is joining the Ravenclaw Quidditch team, becoming the Seeker, and playing on the field!

That's the complete Akiharu.

Apart from Harry, everyone else can only join the Quidditch team in their second year.

"If you're envious, then let's become good friends starting today, okay?"

"I would be so grateful to have a friend like you, senior."

After saying that, Dolly reached out her hand to Cho Chang.

Qiu Zhang hesitated at first, but the light in her eyes prompted her to immediately reach out her hand, and the two fair hands gently clasped together.

It seems that this was Dolly's initiative.

But at the moment Dolly threw a punch at Malfoy, hadn't Cho Chang already decided to become Dolly's friend?

Two pairs of eyes, one black and one green, met. Dolly's smile seemed to infect Cho Chang, making him smile brightly as well.

However, this infuriated Hermione, who had just sat down on the stool. The Sorting Ceremony was about to begin, but Dolly was still staring at the dark-haired girl.

Is she really that beautiful?

I'm not as good-looking as myself... right?

"Hmm... very good quality, Gryffindor seems like a good fit for you..."

The Sorting Hat's voice echoed in Hermione's mind, and without hesitation, Hermione began to pray frantically: "Not Gryffindor, I want to go to Ravenclaw!"

"I'm not going to Gryffindor, I'm going to Ravenclaw!"

If she doesn't go over soon, she feels like Dolly is going to forget about her!

Chapter 51, Third Update: Let's Embrace!

"Alright, for the sake of friendship, go to the college you want to go to."

The Sorting Hat didn't dwell on it, even though it still felt Hermione was a better fit for Gryffindor.

Because Gryffindor doesn't discriminate against academically gifted people, showing too much courage in Ravenclaw would make one seem somewhat eccentric.

After all, intelligent people are good at seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, and in the eyes of such Ravenclaws, the Gryffindors are like a reckless bull.

Hermione excitedly handed over the Sorting Hat and ran towards Dolly with a big smile on her face.

Meanwhile, Dolly had already turned her attention to Hermione, clapping loudly for her and even inviting her to sit down opposite her.

The reason she wasn't next to Hermione was because Dolly already had a boy named Anthony Goldstein by her side, who was right in front of Hermione.

Dolly also remembered the name; it seemed he was a future Ravenclaw prefect and a member of Dumbledore's Army, which meant he was also a very intelligent and outstanding person.

He participated in several DA gatherings and also fought in the final Battle of Hogwarts.

This is enough to show that this person is trustworthy in terms of character and is a good teammate.

Unfortunately, before he could even introduce himself, Hermione was already standing next to him.

"Excuse me, could you give me your seat? I want to sit with my friend."

Hermione spoke in a low voice, and there was nothing disrespectful about it.

But Hermione kept staring at Dolly while she was speaking, never even glancing at Anthony, which clearly offended him.

Everyone was happy, but Anthony didn't say much and moved a step away.

Anthony's expression softened only after Hermione sat down and turned to thank him.

Seeing this, Dolly understood that Hermione needed to experience some setbacks before she could let go of her proud nature.

However, this also means that the tsundere Hermione is entering her limited-time countdown, so Dory should cherish her.

Before Hermione could speak, Dolly had already opened her arms and said in a soft, sweet voice, "Won't we have a hug to celebrate our long-awaited reunion?"

"A long-awaited reunion?"

"We've only been separated for about ten minutes!"

Hermione was still a little dissatisfied, but Dolly's next words made her laugh: "But this is the longest we've been apart all day, isn't it?"

"Hmph... Let's celebrate that we've come to the same academy, the prayers really worked!"

Hermione lazily opened her arms, and Dolly hugged her as she wished, one arm around Hermione's neck and the other around her waist.

Their cheeks touched, rubbing gently against each other, and the tender touch made Dolly smile even more happily.

This scene attracted a lot of attention, after all, three cute girls together naturally increase the attraction many times over.

However, Hermione immediately released Dolly and turned to Cho Chang, extending her hand generously and proactively: "I am Hermione Granger, you can just call me Hermione from now on."

“I am Qiu Zhang, you can also just call me Qiu.”

"With this name, are you Asian?"

"Yes."

"Do you know Chinese Kung Fu?"

"puff……"

Dolly couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Hermione's statement wasn't entirely unfounded, but it certainly reflects a rather stereotypical viewpoint. After all, in the era of Eastern cinema, martial arts action films were the most popular genre.

However, Cho Chang's answer surprised Dolly even more: "I learned Tai Chi from my grandfather, but I have no ability to fight with my fists or feet."

"Compared to Dolly, I'm far inferior."

Dolly glanced at Qiu Zhang in surprise, because whether Qiu Zhang was actually from the great Eastern country was actually unknown.

Because Qiu Zhang's name in the book is Cho Chang, the character Qiu is just a transliteration, while cho can actually be found in the pronunciation of Japanese, Korean, and even Southeast Asian languages.

But now it seems that Qiu Zhang's ancestral home can be confirmed.

Just as Dolly was about to ask another question, Hermione grabbed Dolly's hand and pulled her back, saying, "I thought you wanted to learn Chinese kung fu from her."

This was just a seemingly meaningless rant, but Dolly seemed to sense a sour taste in it.

Since Dolly isn't looking for Cho Chang to learn Chinese kung fu, does that mean Dolly really wants to be friends with Cho Chang?

This immediately made Hermione feel a sense of crisis.

Hermione wasn't surprised at all that Dolly had made friends.

By the time they took the Hogwarts Express, not only had Ron and Neville become Dolly's friends, but even Slytherin prefect Farley had become an acquaintance of hers.

If Dolly went to Slytherin, she would probably become friends with the prefects who were five or six years older than her within a few days.

But what about Hermione Granger?

Besides being confident in her studies, she was also confident that she was utterly inept at making friends.

After all, Hermione has become accustomed to using pride as a protective shield, and it is difficult for such proud people to make friends.

Right now, she desperately needs Dolly's comfort.

How could Dolly possibly make Hermione truly angry?
