The sickly, iron-fisted beauty in Harry Potter

Dolly didn't keep him in suspense; she already knew what Mr. Zhang was like, so she didn't want to give him the impression of a free-spirited Westerner.

"It's another matter, but it might be of great help to Qiu Zhang in the future."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Zhang's brows relaxed.

Although I still felt that Dolly was making a mountain out of a molehill, I chose to believe her.

After all, Mr. Zhang already knew about Dolly; she was the one who gave his daughter the flying broom worth over ten thousand pounds.

£10,000 might not seem like much to him, but for a little girl from a middle-class family, getting her hands on this flying broomstick through her own means was a feat beyond her years.

Furthermore, since it concerns the magical world, he can't afford to ignore it.

He wasn't from the magical world; his parents were Muggles, as wizards would say. He only learned about the magical world after marrying Cho Chang's mother.

Therefore, he instinctively held a sense of awe towards the magical world, and felt that everything in the magical world could easily disrupt the order of the real world.

As Cho Chang's father, he couldn't ignore the magical world, so he could only deepen his understanding of it.

This way, his daughter can have a better life in the future, and he himself will have a way out.

"Alright then, I'll be waiting for you at home at three o'clock this afternoon."

"I'll have about fifteen minutes, is that alright?"

"Thank you then, Mr. Zhang."

Dolly hung up the phone and let out a soft sigh.

If Qiu Zhang's father refused, she would have no choice but to waste her breath arguing with the fairies again.

In that case, even if Dolly manages to get a piece of fairy silverware from the fairy this time, she will basically have no chance next time.

After all, in the eyes of the fairies, she had become a despicable witch who tricked them into giving her treasures through prophecy.

But if Dolly uses her connections in the Muggle world to help the goblins solve this problem, then it will be a completely different story.

In the eyes of the fairies, Dolly became a very influential wizard in the Muggle world, who also possessed the ability to make prophecies.

Even if such wizards are always eyeing the fairy silverware in their treasure troves, they shouldn't be offended easily. Otherwise, who knows when the fairies might need Dolly's help to rescue their confiscated gold again?

After lunch, the Dursleys found a teahouse and sat for a while. Mr. Zhang's driver had already arrived to pick up Dolly.

"Are you sure you can go alone? Or should Harry come with you?"

Vernon was still a little uneasy, even though the driver across from him was from the family of the girl named Qiu Zhang.

"Don't worry, Dad."

Dolly said confidently, "I'm a wizard who knows a lot of magic, after all. If something goes wrong, most people really can't stop me."

Vernon looked at Harry, who immediately nodded.

If Dolly might face danger in the wizarding world when confronted with the wands of adult wizards, then what about the Muggles in the real world?

Even professional athletes and soldiers probably wouldn't be qualified to make Dolly pull out her wand.

Dolly killed the troll using physical means!

"Alright then, but you must let me know you've arrived safely, otherwise I'll come pick you up in an hour."

Dolly smiled and nodded, then got into the black sedan.

At first, Dolly didn't realize it, but when she saw the luxurious interior of the car, she realized that it seemed to be a Mercedes-Benz S-Class.

Dolly didn't know much about cars, but she figured this one must be expensive.

Dolly could tell the extent of the Akio family's financial situation from the gemstone pendant she received as a gift.

Although Qiu Zhang himself doesn't flaunt his wealth, he has definitely surpassed the middle-class family level and belongs to the capitalist level.

But seeing this car made Dolly even more certain of one thing: Akio really was a rich young lady.

A young lady like that will probably be hard to win over later on...

As Dolly was thinking this, she suddenly realized something.

She was sitting in the back of the car, glancing around at the space that should have been empty, but instead felt slightly foggy.

Dolly immediately realized something was wrong, but then a smile crept onto her lips.

Reaching forward, I touched something familiar.

Dolly then touched it up and down, and finally pressed it gently, suppressing the slight protrusion. A soft hum came from the transparent space opposite.

Cho Chang blushed and dispelled her illusion form—it turned out she had come along too, and had even used an illusion spell to surprise Dolly.

Dolly then withdrew her finger from Cho Chang's nose and said with a smile, "Why are you here too?"

After saying that, Dolly habitually raised her arm, but then realized something and glanced guiltily at the British driver in front of her.

Cho Chang seemed to understand Dolly's thoughts and said, "It's okay, he's Uncle Hansen who watched me grow up, I can trust him."

Dolly blinked, not quite understanding what Cho Chang meant.

Even if he is someone you trust completely, what he's about to do is no ordinary thing... Oh well, it shouldn't be a big problem.

Dolly followed her instincts and hugged him. Cho Chang also wrapped his arms around Dolly's waist, revealing a satisfied smile.

The driver in the front seat, referred to as Hansen, glanced at the mirror with some surprise, but then calmly looked away and drove off as if nothing had happened, demonstrating a high level of professionalism.

This relieved Dolly, who had been worried that the driver would be one of those talkative drivers she remembered.

Although it's nice to have a talkative driver to chat with when you're alone, isn't Qiu Zhang here right now?

In contrast, Dolly still preferred to be with Cho Chang.

Qiu Zhang released Dolly's embrace, but holding Dolly's hand, he asked with some doubt, "What do you want with my father? He's such a busy man, he doesn't even have time for me, but he made time for you."

Dolly chuckled and said, "Are you jealous about this?"

"Of course not, because without him, you can stay with me now."

"Am I more important than your father?"

“That’s not the same thing. At least outside of my family, you are the most important person to me.”

Dolly blushed and instinctively turned her head away, but immediately realized that this was not in line with her style, so she said, "I have something important to discuss with your father later. How about I spend time with you after that?"

"Okay, but I have a condition."

"What conditions?"

Qiu opened her mouth, then closed it again, and then said with a slightly shifty look in her eyes, "I'll tell you when you get to my house."

Dolly didn't take it to heart, since she didn't think Qiu Zhang would make any unreasonable demands.

The two chatted as they rode in the car, talking about their experiences since returning.

About half an hour later, the vehicle slowly drove up to the outside of a three-story garden villa.

After the gate opened, the car slowly drove inside and finally came to a stop in front of the building.

"Come in, this is the house we rented, Father is on the second floor."

Qiu Zhang pulled Dolly out of the car, through the luxuriously decorated living room, up the winding wooden staircase, and finally arrived at a maroon door where they gently knocked.

Mr. Zhang's voice came from inside: "Come in."

Then Qiu Zhang said to Dolly, "My father is always very polite to guests, so you don't need to worry about saying anything wrong."

"Don't be nervous, just talk to the professors as usual."

Dolly couldn't help but laugh, and whispered in her ear, "Why do you seem more nervous than I am?"

Qiu Zhang's face stiffened, then he glared at Dolly with some annoyance before gently pushing Dolly forward.

But she didn't deny what Dolly had just said, and it was clear that she was indeed more nervous than Dolly.

There's nothing strange about that!

Yesterday, when Hermione gave the Dursleys their gift, she was even more nervous than Cho Chang is now.

Dolly pushed open the door and entered. Mr. Zhang, already smiling, pointed to the sofa and said, "Sit there. This is where I meet with business partners. It's not really suitable for you."

Dolly did as she was told, but said confidently, "I think next time I come, Mr. Zhang, perhaps you'll let me sit over there."

Mr. Zhang was initially somewhat distracted, but Dolly's words piqued his interest.

Dolly claimed he had something important to do before he could be patient, and he just hoped his confidence wouldn't be betrayed.

So he said, "Very well, Miss Dursley."

"You have ten minutes to impress me and let me hear your brilliant ideas."

"It doesn't take ten minutes; one sentence is enough."

Then, Dolly said in a slow and clear voice: "There is about £100 million in cash in Russia that wants to be evacuated, but they can't find a way to do so."

"Perhaps you, Mr. Zhang, would be interested in this."

Mr. Zhang's eyes lit up instantly.

Fifteen minutes later, Mr. Zhang made a phone call and said, "Please cancel this meeting for me; I have something more important to do."

After hanging up the phone, Mr. Zhang sat back down across the table from Dolly, feeling as if he were in a warm breeze.

“Miss Dursley, there are still two things I don’t understand.”

"Excuse me, Mr. Zhang."

"One question is how this matter relates to Qiu Zhang's future. Of course, even if this is just your excuse, I won't be angry, because you have indeed brought in a good deal."

"Secondly, is it all your decision-making regarding such a big matter, or are you acting on behalf of someone else?"

Dolly wasn't surprised by either of these questions.

In fact, anyone who knows what Dolly is doing now would question the authenticity of Dolly's identity based on these two questions.

But Dolly had no choice. The collapse of the Soviet Union was a once-in-a-lifetime event in human history, so Dolly naturally wanted to find a way to recoup some of the losses.

Secondly, Dolly didn't provoke Voldemort; Voldemort himself came to ambush Dolly.

In order to save her life, she naturally wouldn't let go of any opportunity to acquire resources.

As for the consequences, Dolly could only try to make amends.
