You Shoot Me, I Shoot Her, She Shoots You
Liu Chang'an stepped out of the elevator, stood still for three seconds, and seeing no suspicious figures like Bai Hui or Zhu Juntang, he felt relieved and went to knock on the door.
Liu Chang'an looked down to check if the soup noodles in his hand had leaked out.
The door opened, and he first saw a pair of black strappy high heels, pure black stockings with a soft luster, and a fluffy skirt. Then her breasts suddenly appeared before him, causing Liu Chang'an to involuntarily take a step back.
Bai Hui.
Bai Hui opened the door.
Liu Chang'an looked at the room number embedded in the door frame. That's right, this wasn't Zhong Qing's suite.
"You're... the photographer they hired?" Liu Chang'an guessed why Bai Hui was here.
"Yes." Bai Hui wasn't too surprised to see Liu Chang'an. "An Nuan uploaded a selfie on the order page for finding photographers, and I saw it and accepted the order."
An Nuan?
It seems that Liu Yuewang uploaded it. Since she wanted to preserve some private photos of her youth, selfies were definitely a must.
Women love taking selfies, and as long as they don't look so bad that even they can't stand their own appearance, they usually have a lot of selfies on their phones.
When An Nuan posted a photo of her and Liu Yuewang's legs for Liu Chang'an to identify, Bai Hui probably hadn't arrived yet.
If Bai Hui had seen the two An Nuan, she wouldn't have looked at Liu Chang'an with such an ordinary expression now. She would definitely have made a big fuss, revealing a mysterious yet showy expression, trying to arouse Liu Chang'an's curiosity in a foolish way.
In other words, there should only be one "An Nuan" in the room now, but it's impossible to be sure whether this "An Nuan" is An Nuan or Liu Yuewang.
Normally, it should be An Nuan, but if Liu Yuewang insists on impersonating An Nuan and insists on taking a set of photos, it's not impossible.
Women are capable of anything.
"Well... let's eat the noodles first." Liu Chang'an nodded and went into the room.
Bai Hui stepped aside, pressing herself against the door to avoid bumping into him. Liu Chang'an was carrying rice noodles in both hands and walking with a swagger, while Bai Hui's face was wider than the average person's.
Liu Chang'an went inside, and An Nuan came up to him, winking and making faces at Liu Chang'an.
This is his girlfriend, An Nuan; she recognized her.
Professor Ling also gave him a few meaningful glances.
Where did Liu Yuewang go? Liu Chang'an recalled in his mind that Bai Hui should have come to film as agreed, knocked on the door, and either An Nuan or Liu Yuewang to open the door, but then closed it again in fright. Then the mother and daughter discussed it and decided that, regardless of whether they had gone through any struggle or argument, An Nuan would be the one to directly face Bai Hui in the end.
Liu Yuewang either found an opportunity to escape from the guest room, or she remained in the suite and hid in some place, such as the closed walk-in closet or the bedroom wardrobe.
Liu Chang'an placed the food on the dining table.
"I sent you a message, didn't you see it?" An Nuan lowered her voice. An Nuan had noticed Liu Chang'an pausing at the door for a while and felt that he didn't know that Bai Hui was the one who came to arrange the photoshoot.
"No." Liu Chang'an shook his head. An Nuan had sent him a photo of her and Liu Yuewang's legs via QQ, and Liu Chang'an didn't log back into QQ to show that he hadn't seen it.
Later, he An Nuan if she wanted to eat noodles; he sent the message via text message.
At this moment, Bai Hui walked over, and An Nuan stopped talking and greeted Bai Hui, "Photographer Bai, come and have some noodles first."
"Don't call me that anymore." Bai Hui was afraid that Liu Chang'an would make fun of her, because Liu Chang'an had taken photos of her before. Although Liu Chang'an was not very familiar with the equipment, so some photos were blurry, too bright or too dark due to inaccurate focus caused by improper parameter adjustment, the composition, atmosphere, shooting angle and timing of the vast majority of the photos were far superior to Bai Hui's.
With Liu Chang'an around, she was just an ordinary photographer.
"Liu Chang'an, you brought a camera over?" Professor Ling noticed the camera bag Liu Chang'an was carrying.
"I just bought one at the mall downstairs." Liu Chang'an nodded.
An Nuan was filled with a pleasant surprise, because she felt that Liu Chang'an must have bought the camera to take pictures of her... As a beautiful enough girlfriend, this confidence couldn't be considered wishful thinking.
But An Nuan suddenly frowned, feeling that she had been happy a little too soon.
"What camera did you buy?" Bai Hui asked curiously. "Is it the same brand as mine? If so, we can exchange lenses."
"Yes." Liu Chang'an took out the camera.
"You bought a kit lens... I originally planned to take photos of girls today, so I brought both the 35L and 85L lenses, but switching between them is still inconvenient... Can I borrow your 24-70 for a bit?" Bai Hui said happily, "I'll be taking some more photos later."
In the photography world, there's a common saying that "a wife should never lend her camera or lens to anyone else." Liu Chang'an didn't share this belief. He waved his hand and let Bai Hui unscrew the lens and attach it to her camera.
Many people don't like to lend out their camera lenses. If they do, it's usually to friends in the photography community or people who understand the value of the equipment. It's not that they're stingy, but rather that it's easy for some annoying things to happen.
The equipment was lent out, but the borrower didn't appreciate it at all. They smashed the front lens group and UV filter of a large aperture prime lens, thinking they would only have to pay a few hundred dollars at most. There are plenty of idiots who think the borrower shouldn't bother with such things.
You can find tons of this kind of thing by searching on relevant photography forums, online communities, and media outlets.
An Nuan observed the shape of the lens, then looked at the front of the camera body where Bai Hui had removed the lens, and immediately frowned unhappily, humming twice. If it weren't for the fact that it would expose her cosmic-level dirty-mindedness, she would have been really jealous.
Forget it, today isn't a good day to rack my brains for something to do with jealousy. An Nuan sat down, picked up her chopsticks, tapped them on the table, and started eating her noodles.
"Let's take some more photos with the 24mm wide-angle lens later... I think this focal length is a bit difficult to master, but if you take good ones, they'll have more artistic conception and allow you to better utilize the background for creative shots." Bai Hui paused for a moment, then said objectively, "It will also highlight An Nuan's long legs. A wide-angle lens can elongate the image."
Seeing Bai Hui directly praise her long legs and her professional demeanor as a photographer, An Nuan smiled, feeling a little embarrassed that she had just been thinking about being jealous; she was being a bit petty.
However, her embarrassment quickly vanished, because An Nuan believed that one could never be too thoughtful when it came to love. To make amends, she also complimented Bai Hui's hair clip, high heels, and dress.
After finishing her noodles, Bai Hui took some more photos of An Nuan and Professor Ling before preparing to leave.
"Liu Chang'an... could you please deliver Bai Hui to him?"
Watching Bai Hui wave goodbye, An Nuan nudged Liu Chang'an.
Bai Hui was stunned for a moment.
Liu Chang'an glanced at An Nuan, a smile involuntarily creeping onto his lips. He then turned away, his smile fading, and said calmly to Bai Hui, "Let's go, I'll take you. It's late at night, and with your aura that makes you seem like a target for crime, it's not very safe for you."
Hearing him praise himself, Bai Hui didn't think much of it and went out the door.
Liu Chang'an recalled the time Bai Hui was robbed.
Bai Hui thought that the phrase "an aura that makes people want to commit crimes" must be a compliment on her figure.
Stepping outside, Liu Chang'an and Bai Hui went to take the elevator. Bai Hui took the camera out of her bag again and looked at it, still unable to contain her curiosity, "Why did An Nuan ask you to take me?"
"Aren't you good friends? It's normal for good friends to think of each other and send their boyfriends to see each other off," Liu Chang'an said with a smile.
Bai Hui's cheeks flushed slightly. Honestly, she was teasing him again.
Liu Chang'an figured out the reason, but he couldn't tell Bai Hui... The person who originally wanted to take a picture today was Liu Yuewang, but because the photographer was Bai Hui, Liu Yuewang was unable to take a picture.
Now that Liu Chang'an has brought up a camera lens, what reason can An Nuan give to stop Liu Yuewang from asking Liu Chang'an to take a picture of him, since Liu Yuewang's wish has not been fulfilled?
That meant they had no choice but to send Liu Chang'an away. So, as a couple who understood each other perfectly, Liu Chang'an knew that An Nuan's request was for him to see Bai Hui off so that he wouldn't have to go back to the hotel.
