HP: I’m working on redemption at Hogwarts

Chapter 109 Velvet Cheongsam



Qiuzhang received many different gifts for Christmas this year as usual. Similarly, when she and Cedric went to Hogward Village a few days ago, she also chose many gifts to send to her friends.

However, among the various gifts placed beside the bed, the one that I look forward to most is the dress that my parents sent me. After all, he would be Cedric's partner in the upcoming dance.

When he walked to the warm fireplace, there were already piles of various gift packages. Qiu Zhang rummaged through the package from his mother, but did not see it. Instead, he saw a gift package from his aunt whom he had not contacted for a long time.

Qiu Zhang tentatively opened the package, and the inside immediately expanded as if some magic exploded, turning into a pink rococo-style flashy and exaggerated Central European princess dress.

The corners of Qiu Zhang's mouth twitched slightly, and a bad premonition suddenly arose in his heart. He immediately opened the envelope and read the letter from his aunt.

Dear Qiu,

Your father and mother are not in the UK for the time being. Please forgive them for being busy, but don't worry. Your aunt heard about your Christmas ball and specially customized this dress for you. Enjoy the ball!

……

Qiu Zhang is not very well, how can I put it... She is very grateful to her aunt for her kindness, but this complicated and exaggerated pink dress really does not suit her. She even believes that it is the dress of the princes and nobles in earlier centuries.

Qiu Zhang sighed helplessly and hung the dress on the hanger beside the bed. He felt inexplicably depressed and a little lost. He even lost the passion to open other gift packages.

"Oliver's necklace...Mary's brooch...Fred's candy, please don't eat it yet..."

Qiu Zhang sniffed it cautiously, narrowed his eyes slightly, and with a hint of suspicion, he placed the box of candies with rabbits of various colors in the corner and continued to open the gifts.

"George's knitted gloves..."

It's really strange that he is so careful and steady, and has the patience to complete such a time-consuming and labor-intensive job?

Qiu Zhang gently put on the pair of fluffy gloves. She fiddled with it casually, but unexpectedly discovered the warmth and comfort it brought. This pair of gloves is not breathable at all and seems to be able to withstand the severe cold of winter, which shows the seriousness and concentration of the weaver.

Finally, it was time for Cedric's gift. It was a square box tied with a blue ribbon.

Qiu Zhang slowly opened it, and saw a velvet embroidered cheongsam quietly placed inside. The skirt was embroidered with exquisite floral patterns, and the waist and collar of the upper body were inlaid with pure white velvet, which looked warm. Soft and must be extremely comfortable to wear.

"Oh my God! This is so beautiful!"

When Marietta saw the cheongsam picked up by Qiu Zhang, her eyes became bright and she immediately came forward to appreciate it carefully.

"Is this from Mrs. Zhang? It's so beautiful..."

Qiu Zhang shook his head helplessly, gently stroking the down on the cheongsam with his hands, and murmured in a absent-minded voice.

"This is from Seid..."

"Oh~ Then you must wear it at the dance. You will definitely be the most dazzling presence at the whole dance!"

I won’t say how many bestie filters Marietta’s words had, but looking at her teasing smile and sincere praise, Qiu Zhang couldn’t help but feel moved.

"Ahem, Mary, you are exaggerating too much."

Qiu Zhang was a little shy, his cheeks looked even redder against the crackling flames in the fireplace, and he lowered his head in embarrassment.

"How can you exaggerate? Qiu, try it quickly and let me see."

Under Marietta's push and urging, Qiu Zhang took the cheongsam back to the closet and closed the curtain. He quickly took off his casual clothes and put on a simple and elegant cheongsam.

"How about it?"

Qiu Zhang slowly opened the curtain and walked out in small steps. Marietta looked at Qiu Zhang with a surprised expression, wide eyes and excitement, and a big smile appeared on her face before she knew it.

"This is just...amazing!!!"

……

At night, the lounge has become extremely lively. Everyone is chattering about the dance that is about to start. Everyone is dressed in costumes. The boys are wearing exquisite and neat suits and dresses, and the ladies are wearing all kinds of beautiful dresses. Gorgeous dress.

Qiu Zhang was sure that everyone looked twice as good as usual tonight, including herself of course.

Marietta was wearing a lavender fishtail skirt, which made her figure curves appear concave and convex. The glittering skirt looked like a beautiful fishtail as she took each step. The ground swings and blooms and dances.

Luke's eyes flashed with surprise, he confidently grabbed his smooth and delicate hair, and walked up slowly.

"Holy shit! Luke, where are your curls?"

Not only Marietta was surprised, Cho Chang was also almost scared to death. After all, the curly hair that he had been accustomed to seeing for six years suddenly became straight and straight, looking old-fashioned and greasy against his scalp, somewhat like Snape who had washed his hair.

"Brothers, how about straightening it for me? He looks more handsome now!"

Luke didn't notice anything was wrong at all, he held his head up even more confidently, looked in the mirror, and closed his eyes as if he was intoxicated by his own handsomeness.

"Pfft!"

Qiu Zhang couldn't help laughing, and immediately covered his mouth. He tentatively glanced at Luke's hairstyle again and immediately looked away. He patted Marietta on the shoulder and spoke earnestly to comfort her.

"Get used to your dance partner, I'll take the first step..."

Immediately, under Marietta's resentful gaze, Qiu Zhang suppressed a smile and turned around and quickly left the Ravenclaw lounge.

……

Cedric packed up early and went to the door of the Ravenclaw lounge to wait for Qiu Zhang. He looked at the scattered girls or boys waiting for their dance partners in front of the door. Some of them were carefully holding flowers in their hands and looking at Qiu Zhang with smiles on their faces and bright eyes. At the door of Winclaw's lounge, Cedric suddenly couldn't help but blame himself.

"Why did I forget to bring roses?"

But before he hesitated to blame himself for long, the Ravenclaw door slowly opened, and Cho Chang's figure slowly stepped out of the threshold and appeared in front of Cedric.

There is no doubt that Qiuzhang tonight is stunning and beautiful. She wore a simple bun and an elegant velvet white cheongsam. The skirt had a light pattern of daisies. The collar, cuffs and skirt were decorated with delicate white borders. The whole person looked like a tranquil and beautiful flower. daisy.

When she looked in the direction of Cedric, her eyes shone with joy, and she couldn't help but raise an excited smile on her face. The shallow dimples loomed on her cheeks, adding a bit of cuteness.

"Ced!"

Qiu Zhang ran over in small steps and stopped in front of Cedric.

"You must have been waiting for a long time, right?"

"I didn't wait so long that I even forgot to get you flowers."

Cedric looked enviously at the satisfied smiles of the girls who received the flowers, and couldn't help but feel a little apologetic. Qiu Zhang was amused by Cedric's serious and stubborn look, and couldn't help but reach out and scratch Cedric's chin, causing him to raise his head in confusion.

"Pfft, Ced, you are too cute!"

Qiu Zhang carefully put his hands behind his back, winked playfully at Cedric, and then stretched out his hand behind his back. What he held in his hand was a small cluster of white flowers of mulberry incense.

"Like it?"

Qiu Zhang looked at the stunned Cedric intently, rubbed Cedric's exquisite hairstyle as if coaxing a child, and asked in a gentle tone.

Cedric didn't respond for a long time, staring blankly at the guri incense in front of him. His mind couldn't help but think of its flower language, the scene and memory of the two's first kiss...

The warm and soft touch, and the hot and humid breathing sound so close, seem to still be ringing in my ears...

"Yes, I like it."

Cedric heard his answer. He took the white bouquet from Qiu Zhang's hand seriously, buried his nose in the flowers and smelled it with satisfaction. He slowly raised his eyes and looked at Qiu Zhang tenderly and affectionately for a long time.

Unexpectedly, he originally blamed himself for failing to send flowers to Qiu Zhang, but now it was the other way around...
