“Have a seat . ”
Su Nanfeng pulled a chair and sat down . Wei Xu wanted to go over but she didn’t want to go alone and listened to Ming Shu say things that would embarrass her . Hence, she didn’t go over .
She turned around and greeted the other people . Very soon, she exchanged names with the group of girls and they talked really happily .
Wei Xu pretended to let it slip that her father was a director and he had filmed Ji Jin’s movie before . The wifefan of Ji Jin immediately looked at her warmly and called her Little Xu .
They quickly got familiar with one another . Although they were different ages, there was no generational gap at all .
After talking for a while, someone asked Wei Xu:
“Is Su Nanfeng very close to Jiang Qiao?”
Wei Xu glanced at the two people who were talking on the other side . “I’m not sure, either . I only know that they had a meal once . ”
“They even had a meal?” The girls exclaimed, “Their relationship must not be that simple . ”
Wei Xu felt a little unhappy . “Senior Sister Jiang Qiao is a famous person in our school . Maybe Su Nanfeng just wanted to ask her some things . ”
“I feel that Junior Brother Su Nanfeng is quite a cold person . If he can talk so much to Jiang Qiao, it probably means that he likes her . ”
Wei Xu: “…” What are these people talking about? How can Su Nanfeng like her?
1One of the girls signaled for them to lean closer and lowered her voice . “I heard that when Jiang Qiao was still studying, Mister Zhao chased her . However, Jiang Qiao didn’t take a fancy on Mister Zhao . Look at He Ru, look at how good her life is now . Comparison really makes people angry . ”
“Really?”
“You don’t know about this, right? I heard this from other people too . During that time, all the girls wanted to be Mister Zhao’s girlfriend, but Jiang Qiao rejected him . He might have felt that it was embarrassing so he didn’t tell anyone . ”
“Does He Ru know?”
“If she doesn’t know, would she be so strange to Jiang Qiao?”
“Speaking of which, Jiang Qiao is really pretty…”
Everyone looked behind them . The girl was resting her chin on her hand and listening to Su Nanfeng talk . She was smiling and, under the dim lighting of the restaurant, she looked really dreamy and pretty like the mist in Jiangnan .
This was how she looked like in the past . After graduating so long ago, she still looked the same . Time seemed to have stopped for her .
The girls got really jealous .
“What is she doing now? It is not easy to be a photographer . I don’t know how many people are still in the industry from our class . Even if they are still doing it, they must not be doing very well . ”
“I don’t know, I have not been following this circle for a long time . ”
“Me too…”
These girls came late so they didn’t know about the conversation between Ming Shu and He Ru just now .
“Little Xu, do you know?”
Wei Xu had not graduated yet and was studying photography . Hence, she must be really familiar with the happenings in this circle .
“She is a freelance photographer, I think,” Wei Xu said . “Senior Sister is so amazing, she should not have a problem doing what she wants . ”
“The good way of putting it is that it is a freelance job . The bad way of saying it is that she has no job at all . ” The guy sitting at their neighboring table twisted his body and entered the conversation . “You girls are still okay . For people like us, our families want us to have a stable job . No matter how big our dreams were in the past, they were ground away by life . ”
Everyone felt the same way and started complaining about their lives .
Wei Xu didn’t notice when Ming Shu left . When everyone dispersed, Wei Xu walked up with Su Nanfeng .
Su Nanfeng stayed on the second floor . She stayed on the third floor .
“Su Nanfeng, what did you talk to Senior Sister about?” Wei Xu asked carefully .
“Nothing,” Su Nanfeng replied .
Although she knew that Su Nanfeng’s personality was like this, Wei Xu still felt depressed . She had been with him for such a long time and she tried her best recently . Why couldn’t he just look at her?
Was she still not good enough?
They reached the second floor and Wei Xu couldn’t find any other topics to talk about . She bit her lip . “… See you tomorrow . ”
“See you . ”
Wei Xu watched as Su Nanfeng disappeared at the end of the corridor . She turned and went up to the stairs .
“Why are you looking for me?”
Wei Xu stopped in her tracks . The next moment, she trod softly and walked up to the stairs . She looked over at the side cautiously .
“Nothing . I just thought that we had not seen each other in so long so I wanted to catch up with you . Why? Don’t you welcome me?”
Wei Xu was puzzled . What those people said was true… Jiang Qiao and this Mister Zhao…
Wei Xu was planning to continue listening to them, but someone was coming up . She hurried down and pretended to come up . She made her footsteps really audible .
When she finished walking up, she saw Ming Shu leaning against the frame of the door with her arms crossed in front of her . Mister Zhao had disappeared .
The next day…
Everyone was going to the peach blossom valley . Since they learned photography before, everyone brought their own cameras . As they walked in, the guys helped the girls to take photos of themselves .
Xue Hang remembered what the teacher said and took care of Su Nanfeng and the rest of the juniors . He answered a few of their questions .
“Jiang Qiao, your still life photography is better than mine . Can you take a photo for them?” Xue Hang suddenly called Ming Shu .
Ming Shu was looking at a peach blossom and pondering if it could be eaten . When she heard Xue Hang calling her, she retracted her hand that was on the peach blossom and placed it into her pocket . “Why must I do the things that the teacher asked you to do?”
Waste of energy, I am not doing it .
Xue Hang also realized that this person was harder to interact with than before . However, Xue Hang still felt embarrassed when she rejected him in front of all the juniors . “You just need to take one photo . It will not take much of your time . ”
“I don’t want to . ” Ming Shu smiled brightly .
“Play around yourselves . I will not play with you all . ” I still need to gain Hatred Points from Wei Xu .
Just now, Su Nanfeng and Wei Xu disappeared…
Ming Shu went into the peach blossom garden . The pink peach blossoms covered her figure .
[Additional Task: Gain Hatred Points from Ji Jin . ]
1Ming Shu: ???
What the hell?
She was a few thousand miles away from Ji Jin . Why are you giving me the mission now? Did you crash after watching too many little demons fighting?
[Hidden task: Do you think I’m afraid? Hint: Reject more than ten famous people when they want to hire you to take photos . The system will decide the range for famous people . ]
Ming Shu: “…”
What kind of mission is this?
“Do you think I’m afraid?” And you are the one deciding if he or she is a famous person? Are you trying to fool me?
The Harmony System went offline after it finished giving her the task . Ming Shu didn’t even have the chance to argue with it .
“Little Xu, your photos are really nice . ”
Ming Shu suddenly heard a voice . She looked over to one side of the peach blossom garden . A few people were standing on a small path that was covered with peach blossom trees . Wei Xu was standing in the middle .
“Little Qiao, your still life photography as good as Jiang Qiao’s . ”
“No, no, Senior Sister Jiang Qiao is my motivation for working hard . ” Wei Xu was very humble .
Ming Shu: “…” Don’t make me your motivation . I am so scared I am hugging my snacks tightly .
Recently, Wei Xu’s gold fingers unlocked a new function . As long as she aimed the camera at a certain scene, she could take really good photos .
This “certain scene” had a huge range . There were no rules that it had to be the same place .
“Little Xu, can you help take a photo for me?”
“Ah… I can’t, I can’t… I can’t take good portraits . ” Wei Xu didn’t dare to agree to it unless the person she took had been shot in this area before .
“Oh is it…”
Since they were not very close, they didn’t dare to ask too much from her .
