After the funeral, everyone took their leave.

Signas and Abraxas went to the study of Malfoy Manor. Mrs. Black and Druela were about to leave with the three sisters, but Abraxas stopped them. "Mrs. Black, the three Black Misses haven't visited Malfoy Manor yet, right?

Let's take this opportunity to show them around the manor. I'll have the house elves follow them and take care of them.

You can rest in the tearoom for a while and try the new oolong tea they brought back from the Far East.

If you ask me, the tea from the Far East is really different from the black tea we have here. The countries there are also more mysterious than ours. "

Druela agreed.

Abraxas waved his wand and called four house elves.

"You, take Mrs. Black to the China tearoom and prepare the new oolong tea I recently got for her. Then, serve her some snacks," he said to one of the house elves.

The house elf bowed respectfully and walked to Druela to show her the way.

Abraxas looked at the other three house elves. "You three, show the three Black Misses around the manor." Then he lowered his voice and said, "Go and see where Lucius is."

The three house elves responded respectfully and walked to Beira, Andomida, and Narcissa.

Before the three house elves could say anything, Andomida couldn't wait to order the house elf who was following her. "I heard that Malfoy Manor has a new batch of blue peacocks from India. I want to see them." The house elf obediently agreed and led her away.

The house elf next to Beira said respectfully, "Dear Miss Black, is there anywhere you want to go?

If not, I'll show you around Malfoy Manor. "

Bella raised her chin and didn't deny it. Under the guidance of her house elf, she followed him.

The house elf next to Narcissa said the same thing.

But Narcissa thought for a moment and said to the house elf, "Take me to the prayer room of Malfoy Manor."

After saying that, she felt that she was being too presumptuous. After all, she didn't know the structure of Malfoy Manor, so she added, "If there's such a place in Malfoy Manor."

The house elf nodded. "Okay, Miss Black. Please come with me."

The prayer room of Malfoy Manor was located on the top floor of the main building, a steeple.

Wizards didn't believe in God, but they did believe in Merlin.

Traditional wizard families would set up such a place to pray, either for the prosperity of the family, for the health of the members, or for the safety of their loved ones who had passed away, for their souls to return to Avalon, and for them to meet again after a hundred years.

Narcissa walked up the spiral staircase to the top of the steeple.

Both sides of the stairs were covered with painted glass windows. Under the sunlight, they reflected bright colors.

Narcissa pushed open the heavy wooden door. The bell on the door made a crisp sound.

The person in the room hurriedly raised his head when he heard the sound. The sunlight shone on his face through the painted glass at the top of the steeple, making his face look even paler.

He's here, Narcissa thought.

She carefully observed Lucius's face. There were no signs of crying, and no obvious dark circles under his eyes.

The worry in her heart suddenly eased a lot.

"Narcissa?" Lucius asked. "Why are you here?"

"My father and Uncle Malfoy went to the study to discuss something. I wanted to go to the prayer room to pray for Lady Malfoy, so I asked the house elf to bring me here," Narcissa said. She walked into the room and sat beside Lucius.

Lucius stared at the decorations on the silver candlesticks beside the altar. He didn't say anything.

Narcissa just sat beside him, quietly accompanying him.

After a long time, Narcissa put her hands together. When she was about to pray for Lady Malfoy, Lucius held her hand and stopped her from chanting.

Narcissa looked at him in confusion. Lucius didn't look away. He was still looking at the altar.

A breeze blew, and the candlelight flickered slightly.

"You don't have to do this for her," Lucius said. "She's not worth it."

Narcissa didn't refute. She just sat there quietly, quietly accompanying Lucius.

Lucius paused for a moment, but he continued, "My mother was the youngest daughter of the Frederick family, a pure-blood family in Germany.

When Grindelwald rose to power in Germany, the Frederick family became one of Grindelwald's main followers in order to gain more benefits.

But later, Grindelwald was defeated and imprisoned in Numengadeta. My grandfather hurriedly arranged a marriage between my parents, trying to use the power of the Malfoy family to absolve the Frederick family of their crimes.

But unexpectedly, my grandfather was killed by other followers during a trip. The Frederick family, who had lost their leader, couldn't resist the spying of other families and was divided up.

"When the Frederick family was destroyed, my mother was pregnant with me.

Father sealed off the Malfoy Manor to protect her, so she didn't know about these things.

By the time I was born, everything was settled.

When my mother found out about these things, there was no Frederick family in the world.

"The Malfoy family, as the in-laws of the Frederick family, helped the Frederick family regain a lot of assets. However, because the Frederick family no longer had any heirs, my father organized these assets and prepared to hand them over to my mother when she recovered.

"However, my mother listened to the instigation of her former servant and stubbornly believed that the Malfoy family was also involved in the destruction of the Frederick family.

She didn't believe my father at all, and when my father gave her the Frederick family's inheritance that the Malfoy family had seized from other families, she held a grudge in her heart. She thought that this was evidence that the Malfoy family was involved in the destruction of the Frederick family.

"She wanted to take revenge on my father, so she openly adopted a lover and discredited the Malfoy family.

My father warned her many times, but she still didn't repent.

Until I was two years old, when she was about to elope with her lover, she was caught by my father.

She used me as a hostage to threaten my father, and when she wanted to kill me, the blood protection magic of the Malfoy Manor protected me.

My father was furious and killed her lover on the spot, crippled her magic, and put her under house arrest in her own room. "

Lucius laughed sarcastically, "I've only seen her a few times in my life.

In my impression, she has never treated me as nothing.

The only thing I remember she said to me was when I just remembered and wanted to find my mother. She said to me: 'Stay away from me.' "Then he became silent again.

Narcissa didn't answer, she sat there quietly. She knew that Lucius just wanted to have someone to talk to.

Unlike her, no matter how mature he was, he was only a six-year-old child.

After losing his mother, his father didn't come home all day, so he must be upset.

In her previous life, she never knew that he had experienced such a thing.

Her heart ached for him, and she secretly blamed herself for her dereliction of duty in her previous life.

After a while, Lucius turned his head and looked at her. "So, Narcissa?

Maybe I can call you Sissy? "

When he saw Narcissa nod, he smiled from the heart for the first time since they met, a brilliant six-year-old smile. "That's why I'm so happy to meet you. You're my first friend. You're different from Crabbe, who followed me and didn't have any opinions of his own, and the stupid Gore.

Sissy, I'm so happy to be with you. "

Then, he moved his gaze to Narcissa's hair, gently tugged and stroked it. "I wanted to tell you the first time we met, Sissy, your hair is so beautiful."

Narcissa's hair was a rare blonde in the Black family, with fluffy natural curls. From afar, it made her look like a large doll.

Lucius's gaze turned to her face again. "When I'm closer to you, I realize that your eyes are also beautiful," Lucius praised.

His face slowly moved closer to Narcissa's face, his silver-gray eyes facing Narcissa's blue eyes. Narcissa could see her tiny reflection in his pupils.

"Like the purest sapphire."

Narcissa knew that he was just stating his feelings, but she still blushed and moved back slightly.

Lucius noticed Narcissa's movement and froze for a second before he realized how close they were to each other.

He got up as if he was avoiding something and took two steps to the side. He looked away and coughed twice.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.

Narcissa looked at Lucius and didn't miss the blush on his pale face.

She stood up considerately and prepared to say something to Lucius to ease the atmosphere.

Suddenly, with a bang, the house elf who had brought Narcissa to the prayer room appeared. He first bowed to Narcissa. "Miss Black." Then he turned to Lucius and bowed deeply. "Young Master."

Then he said to Narcissa, "Mr. Black has finished his discussion with Master. He asked me to take you back to the guest room."

Narcissa nodded. "Okay." She looked at Lucius and smiled naturally. "Then, Lucius, I should go home.

I think Mom and Dad are already waiting for me in the guest room. "

Lucius had recovered by now. He took two steps forward and told the house elf, "You can leave first. I'll take Narcissa to the guest room." The house elf bowed obediently and disappeared with a bang.

"Then, let's go." Lucius pushed open the wooden door of the prayer room and tilted his head slightly, indicating for Narcissa to go first.

The stairs at the top of the tower were still a little steep. Narcissa was fine going up, but it was very difficult going down.

Lucius saw her situation and quickly walked in front of her. He took Narcissa's hand. "I'll support you. Don't be afraid."

"Thank you, Lucius."

Narcissa was a little surprised. Although Lucius had always been so considerate in her previous life, this was only the second time they had met in this life for Lucius.

"Luc," Lucius said softly.

He walked in front, so Narcissa couldn't see his expression. "Sissy. You can call me Luc."

"Okay, Luc … Luc," Narcissa replied softly.

She could feel Lucius's grip on her hand tighten slightly after she finished speaking.

He must be shy, Narcissa thought. She didn't expect Lucius to be so shy when he was young.

"If I have a child in the future, I won't be like my mother.

I'll be very, very painful for him or her.

I'll try my best to stay with that child and teach him or her personally. "When they were almost at the end of the stairs, Narcissa heard Lucius's whisper.
