Chapter 573: Chapter 573: Fireside Chat and First Taste_1
The courtyard, shrouded in the darkness of night, was brightly lit.
Today, because of construction around the convenience store and the excessive dust, the barbecue stand did not open.
Li Qing and his women were chatting around the stove in the courtyard.
Not only were Tian Yue’e and Yu Lan present, but Han Mei had also invited Qin Wenjun over.
In the cool weather of late autumn, gathering around the stove, having a bit of barbecue, and a little beer was sheer comfort.
Especially when surrounded by beautiful women, each one as stunning as the next, it was captivating.
It was like living a day in the life of an immortal.
As the wine kicked in, the women’s discussion gradually became more uninhibited.
And without a doubt, the one leading the charge was the fearless and unconstrained Tian Yue’e.
Qin Wenjun, who was still a bachelorette and fancied women, felt her face flush as red as a monkey’s butt as she listened.
It was her first time experiencing such an occasion and she was a bit overwhelmed.
"Secretary Qin, do you have a man on the outside?"
As the conversation flowed, Tian Yue’e suddenly directed the topic toward Qin Wenjun.
The other women also looked over in unison.
In that instant, Qin Wenjun froze, her face visibly overheating as it flushed red.
"No... No!"
While speaking, she stole a glance at Li Qing.
This son of a bitch, he couldn’t yet be considered her man.
"Secretary Qin, how old are you now? You must be twenty-seven or twenty-eight, right?" Tian Yue’e pressed on with her questions.
"Twenty-six."
"Twenty-six, and you still haven’t been with a man?"
"No..." Qin Wenjun shook her head.
She did have a girlfriend before, but they broke up after graduation, and her ex got married.
All the past pledges of undying love, barely withstood the presence of another man!
"So, Secretary Qin, you’re still a maiden, huh—a twenty-six-year-old maiden. Do you ever think about that sort of thing?" Tian Yue’e asked with a mischievous smile.
"I’ve never experienced it, so it’s hard to say whether I have desires or not," Qin Wenjun said in a low voice.
Tian Yue’e’s daring subjects made her want to dig a hole at that very moment and bury herself in it.
These were questions she simply couldn’t answer.
"Secretary Qin, at your age, you should be thinking about it, or else life will feel incomplete," Tian Yue’e said.
She took on the air of a person who had been there, and began to earnestly advise Qin Wenjun.
"Secretary Qin, that sort of thing is really wonderful. If you really can’t find someone, you could try it out with Qingzi first, I wouldn’t mind."
Wu Xingxing was never one to hold back a striking remark; suddenly, her words astonished everyone present.
Even Li Qing did not expect her to blurt out something like that!
The impact of her statement was like a nuclear bomb, leaving everyone thunderstruck.
And Qin Wenjun, the person in question, just wanted to escape then and there.
Why were all the women around Li Qing so fierce?
Although she and Li Qing did try it out that once, was this kind of thing really something to be tried out casually?
"I... better not. I can endure a bit longer, just endure," Qin Wenjun said nervously as she took a sip of her drink.
Everyone burst into hearty laughter, but then Han Mei smoothed things over, deflecting everyone’s attention away from Qin Wenjun.
As the night grew deeper, the intoxication of the women deepened as well.
They were the classic type: inexperienced but eager to play.
Li Qing had drunk just over a box of alcohol, and he seemed pleasantly drunk.
Among these women, Li Qing was astonished to find that Qin Wenjun could hold her liquor best.
Her face was clearly flushed from the alcohol, but she was still very much awake.
Wu Xingxing and Yu Lan had already passed out and were now sleeping on the table.
"That’s enough, let’s go to bed," he said.
Li Qing called out and took Wu Xingxing and Yu Lan back to their rooms.
Tian Yue’er and Han Mei weren’t quite drunk yet, but they were close, each babbling away in conversation.
Li Qing didn’t quite catch what they were talking about, but they seemed to be enjoying themselves.
He forcefully interrupted the nonsense these two were spouting and took them to their rooms.
By the time he came back out, Qin Wenjun, who had been very sober, was also asleep on the table.
Li Qing’s lips curled into a mischievous smile as he sat down next to Qin Wenjun and deliberately said, "Drunk too, huh? That’s just perfect."
As he spoke, he picked up Qin Wenjun and carried her into his own room.
He put her on the bed, where she continued to feign deep sleep, looking for all the world as if she had really dozed off.
Li Qing’s mouth carried a faint mischievous smile as he went straight to the point, touching Qin Wenjun’s slender waist to tug at her pants.
But just as he had unfastened the button, Qin Wenjun suddenly grabbed Li Qing’s hand.
"Your sister-in-law promised me she’d be here," Qin Wenjun said.
"What, not planning to keep up the act?" Li Qing asked with a smile.
Qin Wenjun huffed and turned her head away, "If your sister-in-law isn’t here, you can forget about succeeding."
"Are you that enamored with my sister-in-law?" Li Qing asked, laughing.
Qin Wenjun’s cheeks were suffused with a light blush as she said haughtily, "What I like are women!"
"Fine, I’ll go get her for you," Li Qing said reluctantly.
He felt a bit awkward about it, but this was something they had agreed upon earlier.
Backing out now seemed somewhat unreasonable.
Li Qing got out of bed, about to leave the room, when Han Mei pushed the door open and walked in.
"Don’t disturb them," she said in a low voice, her steps somewhat unsteady.
"Sister-in-law, you’re not drunk?" Li Qing asked in surprise.
Han Mei gave Li Qing a sidelong glare, "I know you’re up to no good, how could I dare to get drunk?"
Li Qing chuckled carelessly, Sister-in-law understood him all too well.
Her timely entrance suggested she must have been listening at the door.
Han Mei locked the door behind her, then took off her shoes and climbed onto Li Qing’s big bed.
The three of them sat on the bed and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Even Li Qing didn’t know what to say or do next, the three just staring at each other in silence.
"You can start now," Li Qing said, finding the silence unbearable, and took the initiative to speak.
"You go first!" Qin Wenjun yanked the quilt over herself and covered up completely.
"Are you sure you want me to start?" Li Qing asked with a smile.
He could certainly go first, but he worried that might make Qin Wenjun reticent afterward, considering the mess it might create.
"Stop talking nonsense and get on with it!" Qin Wenjun shouted from under the covers.
Since she insisted, Li Qing had no reason to be polite.
"Sister-in-law, a kiss!" He immediately leaned into Han Mei’s embrace.
Han Mei’s cheeks, already tinged with red, flushed instantly as she poked Li Qing and motioned toward Qin Wenjun with her lips.
Li Qing didn’t pay heed, his lips finding Han Mei’s soft and pliant ones.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to attend to Qin Wenjun first, but in the heat of the moment, he might tear off her pants without a second thought, whereas now, he simply didn’t know how to proceed.
