Chapter 87: Her Feelings

"At first, the questions Jin Ni consulted me about were primarily study-related. I relied on my accumulated knowledge to provide perfect answers, which led her to start trusting me and trying to ask some emotional questions.

There were many problems troubling Jin Ni, but the first one she asked about was family-related. She didn't know whether the fact that she had so many older brothers had brought her negative influences.

I told her that a girl growing up in a family full of brothers would inevitably pick up many habits that only boys have. To most boys, they don't mind, and are even happy to see a girl who can understand them; but for a small portion of overly powerful men, they hope their partners can be sufficiently 'feminine.'

In Jin Ni's heart, Harry Potter is an extremely powerful person. From a young age, she heard from the news that he was a hero who defeated a certain evil wizard. Then, through Luo En's retelling, Jin Ni gradually fantasized about a Harry she believed in: knowledgeable, powerful in magic, possessing lofty ideals and goals, and tirelessly trying to improve everyone's life. Even as a hobby, Quidditch, he is a Seeker genius rarely seen in a thousand years at Hogwarts.

Jin Ni preconceived that the girl liked by such a great hero should be a gentle and quiet lady like Eve, and when she arrived at school, she found that things were indeed the case. The girl accompanying Harry is Zhang Qiu, a beautiful girl from the East. As she gradually learned about Zhang Qiu, Jin Ni became increasingly disappointed in herself.

She found that Harry likes to read books in the library with Zhang Qiu and exchange learning. Zhang Qiu has a Master comparable to Deng Buliduo and a belly full of mysterious Eastern magic, while the most Jin Ni learned from her brothers were prank spells. How could the great Harry Potter be interested in pranks?

She found that Zhang Qiu practices swordsmanship in addition to spells, and Harry also practices marksmanship outside of spells. They are constantly improving their strength to cope with possible future threats. Jin Ni also had the idea of practicing swordsmanship, but Luo En is already a powerful knight; Harry doesn't need a second Luo En by his side, and she doesn't know how to keep up with Harry's pace.

Ma Erfu told Jin Ni that the Zhang family is an ancient pure-blood noble family from the Heavenly Dynasty. What they are best at is exploring the tombs of ancient wizards, so this family has accumulated countless wealth, secret spells, and magical artifacts for generations. That Zhang Qiu can become a disciple of Master Xuanjun shows that she must have extraordinary qualities, perhaps she is the heir of the Zhang family. This made Jin Ni almost desperate; she knew how meager her family's vault was and how shallow the Wei Silai family's collection was.

Finally, what made Jin Ni desperate was Harry's family. He and Eve live in a luxurious Muggle manor, and from a young age, they had private tutors explaining profound and complex Muggle knowledge. The Wei Silai family has always been proud of being 'Muggle experts' in the Wizarding World, but Luo En told her that Harry's research on Muggle items and Muggle society is very profound, and even Dad might not be able to compare to him.

A Jin Ni who is good for nothing, admiring such a perfect Harry, she has almost no possibility of success."

After reading the entire analysis, Harry felt both angry and amused. What Jin Ni admires is not the real Harry, but a "hero" she fantasized about. Contrary to her fantasy, Harry actually prefers a girl who understands Quidditch, loves to joke, and is lively and approachable. Although Zhang Qiu can tell many Eastern jokes, she is not interested in Quidditch, and living with her Master all year round gives people a sense of detachment from the world. She is always concerned about grand and heavy things like fate, struggle, and international situations. Harry swore that he didn't have much romantic feeling for her, and the little he had was only because she was indeed very beautiful.

However, if he told Jin Ni this, the hero image in her mind would also collapse, right?

Harry laughed at himself and turned to the next page of the diary.

"Coincidentally, I was a good student who was proficient in human nature when I was in school. I once used only three sentences to make a woman bury a secret for me for eighteen years.

In order to help Jin Ni get close to Harry, I provided her with a lot of advice. Systematically organizing it, it is roughly as follows.

The theoretical basis of reality is that if you want to get other people's liking, you can't always crowd up to show favor. Only people who lack love from childhood will be moved by this trick, and Harry is obviously not such a person. If Jin Ni wants to attract Harry's attention, she must first make herself radiant, and what specific form to become depends on specifically grasping the traits that Harry pays attention to.

In the process of achieving this goal, Jin Ni's advantage over Zhang Qiu is that she has many 'insiders' who can help her. Therefore, the general idea is to be good at using the help of friends, especially Luo En's help.

The first trait, from her narration, I think is 'ladylike feeling.' This can be cultivated acquiredly, and it is not too late for Jin Ni's age. However, if you want to surpass Zhang Qiu in this regard, you need to grasp the essence of 'ladylike feeling' more deeply. Powerful men hope that their partners are more feminine because they no longer need their partners to provide actual value; what they need is emotional value. Jin Ni needs to ask for Harry's help, making Harry feel that he is Jin Ni's indispensable hero. And this point, because she is Luo En's sister, she can even ask Harry to do things that 'Luo En can't do.' Harry is hard to refuse, and after completing it, he will increasingly realize that 'Jin Ni needs me.' I also told Pan Xi these simple methods. If Pan Xi can win the favor of boys by this, there is no reason why Jin Ni, who is better in appearance, should not succeed."

Harry then remembered that Jin Ni would come to ask him about homework problems from time to time, but for the sake of peace and quiet, he always suggested that Jin Ni ask the teacher or Tang Mu.

"The second trait should be 'valuable,' which is that the partner can provide some help. This point conflicts with the ladylike feeling, and this is also Jin Ni's advantage. When she can occasionally help Harry, she must not do it herself, but let Luo En do it. In this way, Harry will on one hand care for Jin Ni because he trusts Luo En more, and on the other hand, it will not weaken Jin Ni's 'ladylike feeling' in front of Harry."

Harry nodded secretly. Luo En helped him a lot, and he swore that Luo En was indeed his most trusted good friend. But ladylike feeling? Establishing a ladylike feeling at this age, the result is that Harry always feels that Jin Ni is just Luo En's little sister who hasn't grown up yet.

"The third trait is family, or more accurately, the understanding and views of the world, consumption habits, and life planning formed by family education, these implicit things. Unlike Jin Ni's inferiority, I think this is precisely her advantage over Zhang Qiu. No matter how luxurious Harry's life in the Muggle World is, when he comes to the Wizarding World, he still doesn't have many assets. This will create a gap with Zhang Qiu, but can resonate with Jin Ni. Moreover, Zhang Qiu is ultimately a wizard from a foreign country. Jin Ni and Harry are both British, many ideas are connected, and their positions are naturally consistent. If that terrible evil wizard makes a comeback, Zhang Qiu can flee back to her country at any time, while Jin Ni will inevitably fight side by side with Harry. This is very important."

On this point, Tang Mu's analysis is very reasonable, but he doesn't understand the significance of the Communist International, which can't be blamed on him. Harry thought to himself, most wizards wouldn't understand.

"The fourth point is uniqueness. How can Jin Ni distinguish herself from other little witches and make Harry feel that it must be her? The uniqueness of the Wei Silai family in the Wizarding World lies in two points: one is the large number of family members, and the other is the closeness to Muggles. Jin Ni mentioned that Luo En invited Harry to be a guest at home during the summer vacation. This is a very wonderful move; few people can not be attracted by the warmth of a large family. And speaking of Jin Ni feeling ashamed because Harry himself is a Muggle expert, this is unnecessary, and it can even be said to be a good way to help cultivate ladylike feeling. Jin Ni can be interested in Muggle knowledge, beg Harry to introduce it to her, and even ask Luo En to take her to be a guest at Harry's home. If Harry still has nostalgia for the Muggle World, he will prefer such a witch who is interested in Muggles, rather than a witch who is indifferent to Muggles."

Harry had to admit that, leaving aside those misjudgments made due to incomplete information, Tang Mu is really a student with a good understanding of human nature. He accurately analyzed Jin Ni's advantages, making Harry himself moved as he watched.

Moreover, Harry thought that Jin Ni is still young now and looks like just a relatively cute girl. And girls who are cute when they are young will mostly grow up to be very beautiful. He is already looking forward to it.

"Of course, with Eve's intervention, Jin Ni doesn't seem to have followed my suggestions completely, which is also something that can't be helped. I promised to find an opportunity to present her feelings to Harry, hoping it can be of some help."

The help is not small, Harry nodded secretly. He is already planning to try dating Jin Ni when he is in the fourth or fifth grade.

"Eve doesn't seem to have fully trusted me from beginning to end. She has been using her own methods to influence Jin Ni, and the purpose is also to capture Harry's heart. In fact, I have reminded her more than once that the more calculating one is, the easier it is to fall into unexpected dilemmas, but she doesn't seem to care much."

The only thing Eve asked me was how to bridge the gap in family background between her and Jin Ni. I told her that in the Wizarding World, pure-blood origin and Muggle origin are like a chasm, but it doesn't apply to the Wei Silai family alone. Wei Silai is a pure-blood family that is extremely close to Muggles. In the eyes of other pure-blood nobles, they are no different from those of Muggle origin. Therefore, if Harry cares about bloodline, then Jin Ni and Eve have no chance of winning, but if Harry doesn't care about bloodline, then these gaps don't exist."

Harry rubbed his face with a headache, almost forgetting that there is still a troublesome Eve. Although he and Eve are not biological siblings, if they were together, Sir Crowley would definitely not agree.

When he can prepare to start dating in a few years, Harry thought, besides having more contact with Jin Ni, he also has to find a way to let Eve pay attention to other boys. ===== CHAPTER 88 =====
