Chapter 355 Wedding Night
Modern teachers try their best to make students repeat a grade, not so that they can study hard, but so that they can stay in the city for a few more years, because after graduating from high school, the students will have to go to the countryside as educated youth.

Chen Qing knew what the future held, and she wasn't worried that Xiao Yu would become an educated youth sent to the countryside; she was afraid that Xiao Yu was too young to go to university.

He Yuxiang also hesitated.

Chen Qing simply called Xiao Yu over and asked, while wiping her sweat with a handkerchief: "Xiao Yu, do you want to repeat first grade?"

"do not want!"

Xiao Yu shook her head like a rattle drum.

Chen Qing asked with a smile, "Why?"

Xiaoyu thought for a moment and explained, "I already have many good friends in my class. If I go to another class, I'll become a traitor!"

She had seen people who were ostracized after transferring classes, and she didn't want to be ostracized.

Chen Qing thought that it seemed easy to be criticized for changing classes in elementary school, so he said, "Never mind then, but if you have a lot of academic pressure in the future, just tell me and we'll repeat a grade."

"Ok."

Xiaoyu nodded heavily.

Seeing that her aunt had nothing else to do, she continued doing somersaults.

The family of three watched Xiaoyu perform until dinner.

Xiaoyu was so tired while eating that her eyelids were drooping and her head was nodding off; she was almost asleep on the table.

After finishing her meal, Xiaoyu took a shower and went to bed early.

Seeing that his younger sister wasn't going out to play, He Yuxiang went to bed early as well.

Chen Qing and He Yuan were left alone in the courtyard, feeling inexplicably awkward.

Chen Qing went to take a shower first, and then it was He Yuan's turn. While He Yuan was showering, she looked around her room and felt that it was the cleanest it had ever been.

Chen Qing was extremely satisfied, and she even prepared a bottle of wine specially for her.

She believed that alcohol emboldened cowards.

Otherwise, just thinking about it makes me feel awkward.

Chen Qing opened the bottle cap, poured the contents into two glasses, smelled the 42% alcohol content, and began to worry about He Yuan's alcohol tolerance.

Could he be a lightweight?

As He Yuan walked towards the room, his heart pounded wildly. When he arrived, he saw a bottle of baijiu (Chinese liquor) on her desk. "Are we going to drink a toast together?"

"Okay, come on."

Chen Qing picked up the white porcelain wine cup on the table.

He Yuan also raised his wine glass, and the two men's hands intertwined.

The 42-proof liquor slid down my throat, sending a burning sensation through my throat.

Chen Qing hadn't drunk such strong liquor in a long time, so he took a moment to recover before moving closer to him to observe his reaction.

Her eyes held a faint smile, yet also a hint of allure.

He Yuan looked at her so close to him, his breath hitched, his gaze deepened, he put his arm around her waist and kissed her lips.

In that instant, Chen Qing felt He Yuan's breath was burning hot, and the faint smell of alcohol made the air even more ambiguous.

Chen Qing's arm naturally climbed onto his shoulder, his heart pounding so hard it felt like it was about to burst out of his chest.

He Yuan turned on the light.

The war is about to break out.

The two fell onto the bed, and a tingling sensation ran down Chen Qing's neck. For no apparent reason, she felt as if the gentle and comforting person she used to know had disappeared.

The man on top of her was breathing heavily, his long, slender hands gripping her wrists forcefully.

The man's lowered eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes, and the sharp lines of his collarbone, revealed when he leaned forward, carried an undeniable possessiveness.

The temperature in the air gradually rose, and clothes were thrown out one by one.

As time passed, rapid breathing filled the room, and a near-released pleasure surged through my body like an electric current.

The incessant chirping of cicadas outside seemed to announce the arrival of midsummer, and the two people inside also smoothly entered a new phase.

When Chen Qing woke up the next day, he felt refreshed and in a better mood. Recalling the absurdity of the previous night, he realized that someone had been hiding their true intentions well. Playing dumb to fool everyone!

When things didn't go so smoothly the first time, she thought it was normal. After all, she had been bombarded with messages before and knew that the first time couldn't last too long. But He Yuan was very sad, so she comforted him. As she comforted him, things got better, and then things got out of control.

Chen Qing didn't know what to say.

He Yuan did a lot of housework, then came to check on Chen Qing. Seeing that she had finally woken up, he suddenly felt a little lost.

Chen Qing sneered: "Ha, men!"

He Yuan's cheeks flushed. "Um... do you need to wash up? I'll get you some water to wash your face."

"Ah."

Chen Qing nodded.

After washing up, Chen Qing stayed in bed. The sun was shining brightly, making it the perfect opportunity to be lazy.

Xiao Yu came running in: "Auntie, someone outside is delivering your wedding gift."

"Who?"

Chen Qing was puzzled.

"do not know."

Xiaoyu didn't know either.

Chen Qing got up and felt a slight unease, cursing someone in his heart.

Upon arriving at the door, Chen Qing saw a woman standing there. "Who are you?"

The other party introduced themselves.

Chen Qing raised an eyebrow. Her man had little to do with her, but she still eagerly sent over the gift.

"Comrade Chen, congratulations on your marriage!"

Chen Qing hesitated for a moment, then said, "Thank you."

The woman smiled.

They left satisfied.

Chen Qing carried the gifts into the main hall and found that quite a few things were already laid out in the corner: "Who sent all of these?"

He Yuan said, "I've marked them all; you can take a look."

Chen Qing checked it.

I feel that these gifts are more about fostering a better relationship between us.

Let's try to prevent things from getting too tense between the two sides.

Both she and He Yuan were in leadership positions. She had a bad temper, and He Yuan was aloof. They rarely had the opportunity to interact. Their wedding was a day when they could openly exchange gifts, so naturally they wanted to make a good impression.

Chen Qing also took out a total of three hundred yuan.

Xiao Yu squatted to the side and watched as her aunt kept opening gifts, eventually pulling out three hundred yuan. She was so envious.

He Yuxiang stared intently at the three hundred yuan, and suddenly wanted to take back his words. If getting married could earn him three hundred yuan, he could do it!
He Yuan tidied up the gifts.

The gifts given by these leaders were mostly tea, small jewelry, and fabrics—things that seemed harmless enough.

Chen Qing felt complicated as he watched.

It feels great.

It felt a bit awkward.

But it's important to blend in with the crowd.

If she doesn't accept it, it wouldn't just make her seem heartless, it would make her seem foolish.

Following that, people began to visit Chen Qing's home one after another, all bringing gifts, making Chen Qing unaware that he knew so many people.

He Yuxiang was envious.

The neighbors in the alley were green with envy. They hadn't even held a banquet, yet so many people had come to give them gifts. Was that reasonable?!
But the best news today came from Director Lin, who returned from the capital.

Chen Qing's application for Party membership has been approved. All she needs to do is take the oath of joining the Party and receive the "Application Form for Joining the Party" and "Party Member Certificate" issued by the organization, and she will become a true Party member.
