Chapter 1091: Chapter 1097: Anxious Wedding Night 2
Although it was their second marriage, the two shy individuals together hesitated even more than during their first.
Two hours had passed since Huang Zhong entered the room until both were lying on the bed.
Such pace was unmatched.
The two lay side by side on the bed, the atmosphere slightly awkward.
Hu’s Clan closed her eyes, hoping she would fall asleep soon, as Huang Zhong became anxious.
If this delay continued, their wedding night would be ruined, so he had to take some action.
"Lan’er, I’m uncomfortable, is it okay?" Huang Zhong asked subtly.
When he had stepped out to fetch water earlier, his mother had given him a cup of wine, and after drinking it, he felt an intense heat all over.
Hu’s Clan responded in a voice quieter than a mosquito’s, her voice trembling lightly.
Huang Zhong could no longer hold back and slowly moved closer to Hu’s Clan.
After taking the first step, everything else naturally followed.
Hu’s Clan silently pulled up the duvet over her head, clueless about everything; she just wanted to fall asleep quickly and think about things in the morning.
Huang Zhong chuckled softly, surprised at how shy his wife was.
However, her timidity stirred him again, making him wish they could stay up all night.
But he wasn’t a young boy anymore; he knew restraint was important in these matters, after all, "slow and steady wins the race."
The next day, Huang Zhong and Hu’s Clan brought gifts to the Tan Family’s house.
Today was supposed to be for meeting the elders in the family, but they felt indebted to the Tan Family and decided to visit them too.
During their time at the Tan Family, Qiao Duo’er had taken good care of Hu’s Clan, even securing her a livelihood.
When the Huang Family was at their lowest, the Tan Family had also offered help; without Ah Hong and Duo’er, the Huang Family could have been in a dire situation.
Both morally and emotionally, they felt they must express their gratitude properly.
"Don’t just stand there, have a seat," Qiao Duo’er invited.
"I’m not tired."
As soon as these words were out, Hu’s Clan’s face turned red and Huang Zhong also felt embarrassed.
Speaking of being tired right after their wedding night was bound to lead to misinterpretations.
Qiao Duo’er, holding back laughter, said, "Have some tea, this is Almond’s own concoction and it tastes pretty good."
Since tea leaves contain anti-aging properties used in facial masks, Almond had bought a lot and even selected the best buds to make into tea leaves.
As for whether or not they were happy, one could tell from the expressions on their faces—they were not just happy, but very happy indeed.
Knowing the couple’s modesty, everyone tactfully did not mention Hu’s Clan’s slip of the tongue.
Still, despite this, Hu’s Clan and Huang Zhong remained very reserved, their faces blushing, and soon after barely finishing their tea, they hurriedly bid their farewells.
Expressions of gratitude would have to wait for another time, since the couple at the Tan Family were not sticklers for formalities.
Watching the couple walk off shoulder to shoulder, Qiao Duo’er squinted and said, "True lovers finally united."
Tan Zhenghong nodded, acknowledging the sweetness after the bitterness. n𝚘𝚟𝚙𝚞𝚋.𝚌o𝚖
"It feels like this year has generally been a good one," Qiao Duo’er remarked.
Despite the epidemic, almost everyone around had found their own piece of happiness.
She hoped that everyone striving in life around her would continue to thrive and improve.
