Hermione, watching from the side, grimaced but didn't say anything.

She secretly decided that, at least this morning, what Qiu Zhang had received was only right and proper.

It will be delayed until tonight at the latest.

As for what happens after school starts tomorrow... well, of course she and Dolly will be the closest roommates, even... the kind who can shower together every day.

As for Cho Chang, she should focus on her studies and Quidditch first.

It's important to know that the wizarding curriculum starting in the third year is completely different from the previous two years, with new mandatory elective courses.

Unless Cho Chang no longer wants to maintain his image as a top student, he is destined not to have much time to spend with Dolly.

Thinking this way, Hermione felt much better.

Even as she watched Dolly pull Cho Chang into her room, she didn't have many strange thoughts.

Instead, he said goodbye to everyone first, saying, "I need to go back. After all, I've been here for several days and need to go back to pack my bags."

What she didn't know was that less than three minutes had passed since she left.

Dolly, who was about to leave as Cho Chang sat on the edge of the bed, was suddenly stopped by Cho Chang.

"Sleep with me."

Qiu Zhang stated her desire directly.

His bright black eyes stared intently at Dolly, as if trying to shatter and dissipate all of Dolly's words of rejection.

202

Chapter 202 A new year has begun.

Around noon, Dolly woke up, rubbing her eyes.

She initially thought Qiu Zhang had some bad intentions, which made Dolly quite nervous for a while.

However, it turned out that Cho Chang was really tired and wanted to hug Dolly as a pillow, unwilling to be separated from Dolly again.

At first, Dolly didn't like it much, but she soon melted into Cho Chang's more well-endowed bosom than Hermione's.

Qiu Zhang was also awakened by Dolly's movements. Dolly wanted to persuade Qiu Zhang to rest a little longer, but Qiu Zhang shook his head.

"I'm already very happy to see that you are safe and sound. I also need to go back to the dormitory to take care of some things."

As for what was strange about him, he couldn't quite put his finger on it, but the way the other person looked at him always seemed shrouded in mystery.

"Shall we meet again on the train?"

Dolly tried asking, and Cho Chang nodded.

Since that's the case, Dolly didn't say anything more. After all, Cho Chang could only get a better rest when he returned home, right?

Afterwards, Dolly invited Cho Chang to have lunch, and then put her in the car that had come to pick her up.

The driver was still Mr. Hans, whom Dolly knew well.

Dolly was very impressed with Mr. Hans.

Strictly speaking, Dolly should call him Mrs., since she considers herself to be the woman in her relationship with her husband.

It's just as Britain would have thought.

However, Dolly didn't have much to comment on, since Mr. Hans was impeccable in both his professional attitude and driving skills.

"Go back and get some rest, Qiu."

Dolly reached out and rubbed Cho Chang's eyelids, saying, "If I still see dark circles under your eyes tomorrow, don't blame me for giving you a potion."

Qiu Zhang smiled and made a promise to Dolly before getting into her car and leaving.

They remained silent the whole way until they were almost home when Qiu Zhang suddenly spoke up and asked his driver a question.

"Hans, do you think my father would approve if I liked a girl?"

Hans didn't seem surprised by what Qiu Zhang said and continued driving calmly.

Or rather, he had already expressed his surprise a year ago, but at that time nothing was certain.

But now...

Hans paused for a moment before saying, "Miss Zhang, this matter actually has nothing to do with your father."

"You're just in love, aren't you?"

"If you graduate one day and want to get married, you can discuss this with Mr. Zhang and your mother then. It will still be in time."

Hans undoubtedly gave a clever answer, taking advantage of the time difference.

However, to Qiu Zhang, this was undoubtedly a form of support.

Qiu Zhang was actually under a lot of psychological pressure, but she didn't show it.

After learning that Dolly had disappeared, Cho Chang felt as if his reason and soul were about to vanish, which is why he went mad and tried to find Dolly on his own.

Even though Dumbledore had intervened, and she knew perfectly well that everything she was doing was futile, she still couldn't help but do it anyway.

After seeing Dolly today, Cho Chang couldn't help but want to kiss her.

It wasn't a joke like a cheek kiss, nor was it an ambiguous act like a simple kiss on the cheek. Instead, he wanted to bite Dolly's lips more intensely, rendering her unable to resist.

Qiu Zhang didn't know what was wrong with her, but that was definitely what she thought.

Especially when he got to Dolly's room and lay down in Dolly's bed.

Not only did he smell Dolly's scent, but he also smelled Hermione's. At that moment, Cho Chang felt like his brain was about to explode.

At that moment, she really wanted to do something to Dolly, and she quietly gripped her wand.

However, in the end, Qiu Zhang relaxed.

It wasn't just because of reason, but also because Dolly didn't refuse her request, and was held in her arms like a well-behaved doll.

Breathing in Dolly's sweet fragrance, Qiu Zhang felt she had finally regained her senses; in reality, she had barely slept at all.

Instead, after Dolly fell asleep, Cho Chang gently kissed Dolly's cheeks and the back of her neck, worrying every second that Dolly would wake up.

This is also why Qiu Zhang had to say goodbye, because she was really unsure if she could calm down again.

This is why Qiu Zhang is discussing this topic with Hans now.

It wasn't just because of her trust and understanding of Hans, but also because she wanted to vent and gain someone's support.

Hans clearly understood all of this and offered his opinion.

Otherwise, Qiu Zhang should have discussed this topic with her father, rather than with him, the minority driver.

"However, Miss Zhang."

Hans added, "You possess magic, and I also know that some magical powers are so strong that they can cause irreversible consequences."

"So I suggest you take it slow. After all, you're only in the third grade, and you have plenty of time."

Qiu Zhang nodded slightly, thanked Hans, and admitted that she hadn't gone so far as to use aphrodisiacs on Dolly.

In fact, Cho Chang herself didn't quite understand her current emotions, not realizing that she was simply going through puberty and wanted to vent, and that Dolly just happened to attract her.

Or perhaps she truly harbored some unspeakable feelings, the kind that would absolutely enrage her father.

Therefore, Qiu Zhang does need time to verify his ideas, so let's use the following semester.

Dolly breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Qiu Zhang off.

She didn't know why she felt a mysterious pressure from Qiu Zhang.

As she thought this, Dolly touched her neck, which felt chilly.

Could it be that the noseless person is cursing her again?

Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore.

Dolly was basically unable to take care of her own affairs during the holiday, so she still had a lot to do on the next day.

First, despite Vernon's displeasure, Dolly spent an afternoon learning about her family's financial situation.

Just as Dolly knew and predicted, the Dolly family's fortune successfully surpassed ten million pounds.

It can be said that Dolly's family has completely achieved financial freedom, and even Vernon has become much more free in doing business this year.

At least when faced with those disgusting customers, Vernon could proudly say no.

Since Vernon couldn't stop Dolly, he could only have a serious discussion with her about the future distribution of the family's wealth.

This meeting was still just Dolly and Vernon; Harry and Petunia did not participate.

Penny is a very down-to-earth person who is used to and enjoys this kind of family life. If she were to be suddenly put in charge of more wealth, Dolly would worry that it would only lead to chaos.

Of course, this doesn't mean Dolly will still make Penny a hard-working housewife.

Dolly has already planned out every possible way to reduce Penny's workload by spending money.

If Penny hadn't definitely disagreed, Dolly would have even considered hiring some people to help Penny share the burden.

Then there's the issue of Vernon's job and his family's address.

Ultimately, considering magical defenses and lifestyle habits, Dolly gave up the idea of ​​buying a new house, and Vernon will retain his job.

However, on Dolly's advice, Vernon has begun to seriously consider the idea of ​​acquiring his own company.

That way, Vernon would be under less pressure, the Dursleys would have their first real property, and it would be both legal and legitimate. Vernon would also have people who knew him well.

Finally, there's the question of how to deal with this wealth.

Simply investing in speculative stocks is clearly no longer a realistic approach.

It's not that investing in speculative stocks is no longer profitable, but rather that Dolly's money is now enough to influence the price movements of these stocks.

The reason why "monster stocks" are called "monster stocks" is because they are initially small in size, allowing for explosive growth and opportunities for buying and selling.

If the Dursleys acquire too much of a particular speculative stock, it could cause speculators to abandon that stock.

So investing in speculative stocks should continue, but it's unlikely to be as profitable as it used to be.

Dolly could only put up a maximum of two million pounds, and then earn around ten million pounds in a year, even with careful investment planning.

As for the rest, Dolly temporarily selected a few stocks that were expected to see stable, slight growth over the next year and had Vernon invest in them.
