Rebirth of a Village Girl

Chapter 929: 227: Just like this, conquered by you!_3

In an era where communication technology was not advanced, graduation photos were still very important.

After today’s farewell, some people might never have the chance to meet each other again in their lifetime.

Unlike later generations, where you can keep in touch through WeChat, QQ; back then, even big cell phones weren’t produced yet!

Hence, Ni Yang brought her family’s camera specially today.

After the graduation picture, she could also take individual photos with other classmates.

"Yangyang, take several more pictures for us," Han Xiaoyu urged as she and a female classmate struck the classic ’scissor hands’ pose.

"Okay," Ni Yang pressed the shutter and took several shots.

At that time, not many families could afford a camera, so more and more classmates came to Ni Yang for photos.

Ni Yang did not refuse anyone, fulfilling everyone’s requests regardless of gender.

After the photos, Ni Yang also collected everyone’s home addresses, planning to mail the developed pictures later.

Seeing that Ni Yang was also going to handle the mailing, classmates started offering money.

Film for the camera and postage costs money, doesn’t it?

Ni Yang declined with a smile, "Consider it a graduation gift from me."

This was an excellent opportunity to establish connections.

Class Five students had performed exceedingly well, and their future prospects were boundless!

Even the most unremarkable one now had endless possibilities in the future!

You should never underestimate anyone at any time.

After taking photos, a few teachers were especially happy and planned to treat the whole class to a meal, which was essentially a parting gathering, as it would be difficult to get everyone together like this again after today.

Hearing that teachers were treating them, all the classmates were overjoyed and cheered immediately.

Several teachers took everyone to a state-owned restaurant.

Though teachers’ salaries weren’t high at the time, their class had a country’s top scorer, and the overall college entrance rate was very good, so there would definitely be rewards from above. Hence, the teachers didn’t skimp on ordering—anything on the menu was fair game, and they ordered more than twenty dishes of meat alone.

With sixty people in Class Five, plus the teachers making it over sixty, twenty dishes wasn’t a lot for teenagers with big appetites.

When life is successful, one should enjoy to the fullest.

Ni Yang was the star of the gathering. She raised her glass and toasted everyone, "Thank you for looking after me this past year, teachers and classmates! I’ll drink to that first!"

A full glass of white liquor, and Ni Yang didn’t even frown as she downed it.

Being a successful businessperson, how could she not drink?

Ni Yang’s tolerance was honed in her past life.

Seeing Ni Yang so hearty, her classmates at the table were astounded!

"Ni Yang, you really can hold your liquor!"

"Wow! Ni Yang, I thought you didn’t drink!"

Ni Yang was so beautiful, who knew she could drink too?

It was really surprising!

The teachers were also surprised, fearing that their own tolerance might not match Ni Yang’s.

Ni Yang smiled and said, "My mother also has good tolerance, probably it’s genetic."

After a round of toasts, everyone began to feast heartily.

Current times, everyone’s home food was generally not rich, but today’s meal with meat and alcohol made them extremely happy. The mood was infectious, and even the girls who usually abstained from alcohol began toasting each other.

An hour later, everyone was slightly tipsy.

As they ate, the atmosphere suddenly turned sentimental.

After all, after this meal, everyone would be going their separate ways. Groups of classmates started sharing their heartfelt thoughts, unable to part from each other.

"Yangyang, which university are you applying to?" Han Xiaoyu asked Ni Yang.

"Um, Yihua University," Ni Yang replied.

Since Yihua University was in Beijing, it was easier for Ni Yang to look after her business.

Han Xiaoyu sighed, "If only my scores could reach the threshold, I would apply to Yihua University too! Unfortunately..." Her scores were just enough for a first-tier university.

Ni Yang lifted her glass, her lips curving into a light dimple, "Don’t worry, Xiaoyu, we’re both in Beijing, and we’ll have plenty of opportunities to meet in the future. Rest assured, our friendship will never change, no matter what."

Han Xiaoyu raised her glass to Ni Yang’s, "You’re right, Yangyang. No matter what, our friendship will always remain the same."

With that, Han Xiaoyu also emulated Ni Yang, finishing her drink in one gulp.
