Xu Chun smiled modestly, "How can I compare to you professionals?"
He's in his early twenties now, which isn't considered old for an actor, but if you consider the age of idols, he's already considered elderly.
However, his skin is indeed very good, showing no signs of his real age. It's so tender it looks like you could squeeze water out of it, and there are almost no fine lines around his eyes. It's fair to say that no one can guess his age at all.
Xu Chun couldn't help but sigh, "I still can't compare to you young people."
The makeup artist, upon hearing this, teased, "What's wrong? What's making you so emotional?" Because Xu Chun didn't usually seem like someone who cared about her age.
Xu Chun choked and immediately shut up.
Just as she finished putting on her makeup and was about to get up, the door opened from the outside, Xie Jianyuan walked in.
He was dressed in a black suit, which made his figure look even straighter and taller, with long legs. When he saw Xu Chun, perhaps because he rarely saw him dressed like this, he was slightly taken aback at first, and then a faint smile appeared in his narrow, dark eyes.
"It looks great."
Hearing Xie Jianyuan's praise, Xu Chun pursed her lips slightly and said half-jokingly, "What do you think I'll give you for praising me?"
Xie Jianyuan chuckled softly, "I'll keep track of it for now, and pay you back gradually later."
"Then I dare not owe anyone any more favors, what if I can't repay them later?" Xu Chun smiled and replied.
The two chatted naturally and easily. When they heard a staff member coming over to urge them, Xu Chun got up and planned to go to the photography studio with him.
For some reason, he paused slightly as he stood up, then sat back down and said to him, "You go first, I'll be right there."
Although Xie Jianyuan had some doubts, he ultimately chose not to ask and instead turned around, pushed open the door, and walked out.
After Xie Jianyuan left, Xu Chun glanced at the stylist for a moment, then revealed an embarrassed expression.
"I have something to ask you..." His voice was already as low as it could go.
"What?"
"... Do you have any height-increasing insoles?"
"... some."
Chapter 66 Meeting the Parents
The two photography studios, one large and one small, were very close to each other. The staff were busy with the final preparations. When Xu Chun walked over, Xie Jianyuan came to greet her.
He was taken aback when he saw Xu Chun, scrutinized him for a moment, then frowned slightly, a thoughtful expression on his face.
Xu Chun's heart tightened slightly, and she quickly changed the subject, saying, "Aren't we going to start filming yet?"
Xie Jianyuan nodded. "Right away, we're adjusting the lights now."
The small photo studio was used for a photoshoot of the supplement, conducted by Xu Huaizhou and Fu He. This was because Fu He previously made a surprising statement on a variety show, claiming that Xu Huaizhou belonged to him, which caused quite a stir.
Inviting them to collaborate this time is mostly to capitalize on the current trend.
Although Fu He debuted as an idol group member, he has recently been gradually moving into the film and television industry. As an idol, his face is naturally flawless, with red lips and white teeth, and he exudes youthful energy.
Upon seeing Xu Chun, he exclaimed, "Brother Xu, you seem to have grown quite a bit taller!"
Xu Chun's expression stiffened for a moment upon hearing this, then she chuckled awkwardly, "Haha, really... you must be imagining things."
Fu He scratched his head in confusion, turned to look at Xu Huaizhou beside him who had a cold expression, and asked, "Is that so?"
Xu Huaizhou said expressionlessly, "I haven't noticed, I don't know."
Xu Chun had been nervously watching Xie Jianyuan out of the corner of her eye ever since they mentioned the topic of "height," afraid that he would also ask a question.
Fortunately, Xie Jianyuan merely lowered his eyelashes slightly and subtly curled his lips, as if he didn't understand what they were saying at all.
Xu Chun breathed a sigh of relief.
However, it wasn't just Fu He who noticed something was off; even the photographer couldn't help but glance at him a few more times during the shoot, hesitating for a moment before ultimately not asking in public.
This made Xu Chun start to reflect on whether she had padded too high.
"Don't daydream," the photographer reminded Xu Chun, noticing his distraction.
Xu Chun snapped out of her daze and resumed posing. The photographer frowned slightly and said, "Don't be so stiff. And what's the point of this pose? With that suit, anyone who didn't know better would think it was a business magazine featuring successful entrepreneurs."
Xu Chun awkwardly withdrew her hand, feeling somewhat embarrassed under Xie Jianyuan's smiling gaze.
The photographer took pictures for a while, then looked up and said, "You two, come a little closer. You're not without thorns, why are you standing so far apart?"
Xu Chun was slightly taken aback this time. She looked up and met Xie Jianyuan's gaze, and her heart skipped a beat.
Under the photographer's guidance, the two gradually approached each other. Although they had already done more intimate things in the film, they still felt a little awkward being so close in front of so many people.
"Don't be nervous, Brother Chun," Xie Jianyuan whispered to him.
Xu Chun hummed in agreement, paused, and then couldn't help but emphasize, "Actually, I wasn't that nervous."
Xie Jianyuan didn't point it out, but simply smiled faintly and gazed down at him.
The flashes went off incessantly, accompanied by clicking sounds.
The final photos, after being reviewed by the artists, were all featured on the magazine covers on schedule.
Because it was the first time the two had collaborated on a magazine shoot together, it attracted a large number of fans.
#Hot topic in the group: The cover of Vouunme's main magazine Xie Jianyuan and Xu Chun. Everyone's saying this cover has something special. What do you think?#
The cover background is pure white with silhouettes of birdcages and flower branches. Xu Chun sits on a table with several calla lilies scattered around him. He rests his hands behind his back and has a gentle smile on his lips.
Xie Jianyuan stood with his hands in his pockets, head slightly lowered, gazing at him with a calm and gentle expression.
The whole scene is very warm and beautiful, filled with a peaceful and comfortable atmosphere, making people think of spring as soon as they see it.
