Chapter 149
Dinner was good, and it was evident that Mr. Granger had spent a lot of money on it and prepared it with great care.
From the location of the restaurant to the decoration, as well as the attitude of the waiters and the taste of the dishes, they are all excellent, so that Lyon unconsciously remembered this restaurant called Tulip.
After Mr. Granger sent Hermione and Mrs. Granger home, and drove Leon to the cabin, Mr. Granger said abruptly, "How is your relationship with Hermione now?"
"Well, Hermione is one of my few friends. Sitting in the co-pilot, Leon replied.
"But, I don't think it's right for Hermione to look at you, boy, I'm from this age, and I know what Hermione's eyes mean. Mr. Granger said earnestly.
"Rest assured, I won't have more than a friendship with Hermione until I'm eighteen. Leon reassured.
After all, most fathers are controlled by their daughters, and if Leon knew that his daughter had a crush on a little boy, he would come to the door without carrying a gun.
Mr. Granger was blank in his eyes, "That's not what I meant, to be honest, I like you kid." "
"Uh..."
Hearing Mr. Granger's words, Leon was blindsided, and things took an unexpected turn.
"Listen to me first. Granger explained to Leon as he drove the car.
"Hermione's mother and I are just ordinary people, but Hermione has become a wizard, which invisibly shifts the communication and values between us and her. "
"I am her father, I know her character, she will definitely not find an ordinary person to accompany her for a lifetime in the future, and other wizards, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know if they are good or bad, only you, I am familiar with it. "
"And I'm not against early love, Hermione's mother and I met in middle school, and we've been together all the way to the present, and we're quite happy, if you can still maintain this relationship after a year or two, maybe you can try it. "
Hearing Mr. Granger's heart-wrenching words, Leon was a little speechless and said, "But I have nothing. "
"It doesn't matter, I have, I'm Hermione's child, you are with her, and all my future belongs to you. "
Mr. Granger slowed down and encouraged Leon.
"At the same time, judging from the story Hermione told before, you are also a little guy with ideas and abilities, and there is infinite potential, and I believe that you will be better and more brilliant in the future than you are now. "
This set of combination punches down, Leon didn't know what to say, this Mr. Granger is sending his daughter and inheritance, and he also poured chicken soup on himself.
He behaved like a perfect old father-in-law, and if he refused, he had reason to suspect that Mr. Granger would kick him out of the car.
But let Leon say yes, that's not possible, how old is he, 11? No, it's twelve, it's 1992.
"Let's see, it's still early, so let time bring us the answer. Helplessly, Leon could only use procrastination.
"Look, I just appreciate you, you have a vision, you have a plan, and you take your feelings very seriously, if you can really make it to the end, believe me, Leon, I'm on your side. "
Mr. Granger smiled with satisfaction when he heard this, which was the main reason why he did not object to the development of Leon and Hermione, if it was replaced by another kid with hormones, Mr. Granger would definitely knock out a few of the other party's teeth.
"By the way, did you read the book I mailed you and Madame Granger on New Year's Day?" Leon didn't want to talk about it anymore, so he had to change his mind.
"Of course, "A Song of Ice and Fire", it's hard to imagine that this is from your hand, and the pattern and writing shown in it are like the brainchild of a seasoned author, and the content is so exciting, even if I don't usually read a book, I am looking forward to the next plot development. "
Speaking of which, Mr. Granger is very energetic, since he started the book, he has been keeping it on the bedside, and he has to look at it every day, especially the moving dragon on the book cover, he likes it so much that it is not suitable to take it out and share it with his friends.
"Come on, I'll mail you and Mrs. Granger when the next few parts come out, but the question I want to ask is whether this book, in the world of ordinary people, can sell well. "
Leon hurriedly asked, although he already knew the result, but after all, the era is different, and I don't know if people of this era can accept this style of fantasy fiction.
"Of course, it's fine, but the cover can't be printed with magic, and it will scare other people. Mr. Granger affirmed without hesitation.
Then he continued: "I understand your thoughts, so are you planning to release this book in the world of us ordinary people?"
"Yes, after all, I don't plan to give up the market of the ordinary world except for the wizarding world, you know, there are many more ordinary people than wizards. Leon replied.
"I'll just say, you must have a future, and among my clients, there happen to be a few excellent publishing house owners, and maybe, I can help you talk to them. Mr. Granger looked at him with approval on his face.
"That's the best, I'll give you the manuscript, the kind of print that is acceptable to the average person. Leon was overjoyed to hear this, and it was a good thing that Mr. Granger offered to help, and saved him a lot of trouble.
At the same time, Leon is also lamenting that dentists are really exclusive to the rich, and looking at Mr. Granger's connections, the people he knows are not ordinary editors or the like, they are all boss-level existences.
"Of course, that's fine, but what about copyright? After all, you've already published this book in the wizarding world, so it won't cause you trouble. Mr. Granger asked.
"Of course not, you don't know how much wizards have of ordinary people and how closed they are, and the copyright is still in my hands, even if the publishers of the wizarding world come to me, they can't do anything. Leon laughed and explained, how could he not have thought about this.
After all, the wizarding world is just a test of the waters, and the stage on which he wants to make "A Song of Ice and Fire" bloom has always been the world of ordinary people.
"That's fine, perhaps, in the near future, you can become a best-selling author, and what you say about nothing will become a joke. Mr. Granger teased at Leon.
"Perhaps. Leon nodded, turned his gaze to the scenery outside the window and replied.
For the rest of the journey, Mr. Granger chatted with Leon about what he had and didn't have, and finally brought Leon to the entrance of the forest, and Mr. Granger drove back.
The first time he chatted with Leon, Mr. Granger discovered that the twelve-year-old boy had no less vision and intelligence than an adult, and he spoke very humorously.
If it weren't for Leon's age, Mr. Granger even thought that he was chatting with a mature and steady gentleman, which made Mr. Granger feel more and more satisfied with Leon, if the future really came to the scene he expected to see, perhaps, it would be good to have such a son-in-law.
As for the readers who have only recently read this book, I just want to say that if you don't like it, you don't have to read it, after all, everyone has a hard time, and turnip greens have their own loves, but those who can see this should be their own people, I seem to be saying a nonsense, hahaha.
