Yukinoshita's Correction Method
"What did I tell you?" Komachi Hikigaya, holding an action camera recording the filming process, turned to the photographer who was taking pictures. "No need for too much direction. As long as you don't disturb them, you'll soon see sweet and natural scenes."
"Amazing." The photographer gave a thumbs up. "No wonder you're a top-notch photographer who took promotional photos for Cloud Snow Tea."
"Huh?" Komachi Hikigaya's expression froze. "You know me?"
"You really know nothing about your reputation in the industry." The photographer kept adjusting the framing. "The visual design of Cloud Snow Tea has a similar standing in the industry as the operation of Cloud Snow Tea's official account in the marketing industry."
"Huh?" Yui Yuigahama's expression froze. "Really? I just posted some comments online, it can't be that serious..."
"It's quite rare for an official account to have such high-intensity interaction without causing any conflict." The photographer carefully adjusted the parameters. "Official accounts that are more active than Cloud Snow Tea have all run into trouble, and none of the official accounts that haven't run into trouble have this level of activity."
Saki Kawasaki patted Yui Yuigahama on the shoulder. "Impressive."
"I'm finding out for the first time too..." Yui Yuigahama sheepishly. "Oh right, it's all thanks to the flavor development; otherwise, no matter how active the official account is, it wouldn't make a difference."
"That's true," the photographer exclaimed. "However, Cloud Snow Tea's beverage development is on another level. Everything they release becomes a hit. Even the Kale Series, which didn't sell well before, is now trending—so it's not within the scope of this discussion."
Yui Yuigahama and Komachi Hikigaya patted Saki Kawasaki on the shoulder. "That's awesome."
Saki Kawasaki gestured towards Dong Yunshan and Yukino Yukinoshita her chin. "The inspiration is over there."
The makeup artist and Iroha Isshiki walked over together to touch up their makeup.
Similar to the photographer, the makeup artist, while also a professional, was quite skilled at creating Iroha Isshiki looks for high school students.
"Seriously, senior." Iroha Isshiki cotton swab to precisely wipe away the smudged part outside the lip line, then reapplied lipstick. "Can't you even resist for a little while?"
"Hmm..." Dong Yunshan blinked, "Your wedding dress is beautiful."
The Iroha Isshiki gradient of warm orange, transitioning to off-white at the hem with tulle, and layered with deep orange ruffles on the inner layer, creating a gentle color contrast and sense of depth.
The unique design makes the flared, ruffled skirt look like a cute short skirt from the front, while the long train at the back reveals fair legs as it flows lightly and gracefully.
"Come on~" Iroha Isshiki snorted lightly, "Ever since you saw Senpai, your eyes have been glued to her, you haven't had time to look at me."
"It's really beautiful." Yukino Yukinoshita blushed. "It suits this flower field perfectly."
"I specifically chose this place based on the scenery here," Iroha Isshiki smugly hummed. "Senior, look how sincere my praise is."
Dong Yunshan: "Hmm... it suits this flower field very well?"
"Repeating it again won't help." Iroha Isshiki rolled her eyes at him, annoyed. "Looks like you're completely smitten with Senpai. You're usually so eloquent, but now you can't even compliment someone properly."
"Wait a moment," Dong Yunshan said, looking him up and down. "I'll try again."
"I appreciate the thought," Iroha Isshiki raised her hand in refusal. "You should save that for praising someone else."
Dong Yunshan: "..."
After filming for a long time, Dong Yunshan and Yukino Yukinoshita also needed to rest for a while.
He sipped his drink while watching others film...
"You should be being filmed right now," Dong Yunshan reminded Komachi Hikigaya helplessly. "Why are they filming us again?"
Komachi Hikigaya wore an off-the-shoulder short wedding dress. The fluffy short skirt was playful and cute, and a large bow was tied at her waist, swaying lively with her steps.
"We can't miss a moment like this~" Komachi Hikigaya held her phone, her cute smile revealing her little fangs. "This is exactly the natural feeling we want!"
Exhausted, Yukino Yukinoshita leaned gently on Dong Yunshan's shoulder, looking languid and elegant.
Compared to the previous footage, the two of them looking at each other now appear more natural.
"Oh, right." Dong Yunshan's eyes flickered, "This wedding dress suits you perfectly. The layered ruffles on the skirt create a playful and cute look, and the large bow is the perfect finishing touch."
"Whoa~" Komachi Hikigaya took a half step back. "Why are you suddenly praising me?"
Yukino Yukinoshita patted Dong Yunshan helplessly. "She just praised Iroha, but was told it was too perfunctory."
"I knew it!" Komachi Hikigaya said, suddenly realizing. "Thanks! I'll go take a couple more pictures, you guys continue to rest."
Watching Komachi Hikigaya leave, Dong Yunshan sighed.
It's too difficult.
"Little Yukino ~" Yui Yuigahama ran over, lifting her skirt, "How are you feeling?"
"I'm just a little tired," Yukino Yukinoshita chuckled. "I'll be fine after a rest."
"That's good. Call me if you need anything." Yui Yuigahama earnestly instructed, then suddenly sensed something was wrong. "Yunshan? What... what's wrong? Why are you staring at me?"
Yui Yuigahama chose a light pink strapless wedding dress with a heart-shaped neckline. The sleeveless design, paired with a tulle skirt that splits from the waist to the sides, reveals a cute inner ruffled hem. The fair and pinkish color is very much like her favorite Momo.
Feeling uneasy under Dong Yunshan 'Yui Yuigahama, Yui Yuigahama hurriedly checked herself, thinking there was something wrong with her outfit.
Dong Yunshan: "I'm expressing my admiration with my eyes; you look especially beautiful in this wedding dress."
Yui Yuigahama: "... Eh? Well... thank you?"
Dong Yunshan felt exhausted. "Why are you still hesitating?"
"Any normal person would find that strange, right?" Yui Yuigahama slightly. "Why don't you just say you want to compliment me?"
Dong Yunshan: "... Yes."
Yui Yuigahama a sigh of relief, gave Yukino Yukinoshita a few more instructions, and then turned to leave to continue taking photos.
"This is the first time I've realized that taking photos can be so tiring." Saki Kawasaki paused the shoot, came over to rest, and took a big gulp of water. "I should have known better than to agree."
The smooth satin wedding dress has a warm luster, and the neckline is adorned with tiny pearls. The simple design further accentuates Saki Kawasaki's tall figure. The jacquard fabric shimmers in the sunlight, like an exquisite classical painting. The side slit reveals the delicate lace embroidery on the inner skirt, adding a unique touch of beauty to the ultimate simplicity.
Dong Yunshan looked at it for a while, then cautiously said, "Hmm... this wedding dress is beautiful, and it suits your temperament very well."
"Hmm?" Saki Kawasaki looked at him, puzzled, then turned her gaze to Yukino Yukinoshita. "The task you gave him?"
"...No," Yukino Yukinoshita explained, "He just praised three people, and they all failed."
"No wonder you were being so cautious and perfunctory." Saki Kawasaki glared at Dong Yunshan. "I really don't know how to say it, just show your appreciation with your eyes."
Dong Yunshan, feeling wronged, said, "That's exactly what I just did."
"No wonder you were so cautious, perfunctory, and hesitant." Saki Kawasaki waved her hand. "Well... you look pretty cool too."
"I think I understand Iroha all of a sudden." Dong Yunshan blinked. "That sounds a bit perfunctory, doesn't it?"
"Tsk." Saki Kawasaki's tone was unfriendly. "Then let me give you a proper compliment? The color suits you very well, and the cut flatters your figure perfectly—broad shoulders, a slim back, and a tiny waist..."
Yukino Yukinoshita gently pinched Dong Yunshan: "He appreciates your sentiment."
Dong Yunshan coughed lightly. "Why don't you express your appreciation with your eyes?"
"I don't have the energy to glare at anyone right now..." Saki Kawasaki's eyes flickered. "Hasn't the teacher arrived yet?"
"I sent a message when we met up earlier, and I just called, but she didn't answer." Dong Yunshan shook her head slightly. "She probably suddenly had work to do."
Yukino Yukinoshita pursed her cherry lips slightly. "It would be best if you had a job."
If it's due to work, then it's because Shizuka Hiratsuka can't get away.
If it wasn't because of work, then it means that Shizuka Hiratsuka's decision not to come was hers.
Whatever the reasoning behind it...
"I've thought about how I would feel if I reached a certain age and still wasn't married." Saki Kawasaki's eyelids drooped slightly. "I might feel anxious, I might feel uneasy... Along with these emotions, there's also a sense of resentment. I have good grades, I take good care of my family, and I've accomplished a lot at work—why should I feel like a failure just because I'm not married?"
"That's exactly what I mean." Dong Yunshan nodded in deep agreement. "Although the teacher smokes, drinks, drives fast, and has a bad temper... she really is a good teacher, and that won't change because of whether she's married or not."
Saki Kawasaki: "Next time, remember to just get to the rest."
"Yunshan and I are the best proof." Yukino Yukinoshita grasped Dong Yunshan's hand. "We want to tell her, and we hope even more... that she'll be willing to listen."
"Yeah... "Saki Kawasaki breathed a sigh of relief.
Students can express their appreciation for their teachers in many ways.
But what could truly change Shizuka Hiratsuka's mind was only her own thoughts.
The roar of the engine caught Saki Kawasaki's attention. She looked up and saw a red sports car speeding towards her before coming to a smooth stop.
Dong Yunshan narrowed his eyes slightly, his exceptional eyesight allowing him to spot the smoke billowing from the car window. "Ah... the hot-tempered, alcoholic teacher has appeared, smoking and driving fast."
Chapter 840 Within Reach
The car door opened, and Shizuka Hiratsuka out, closed the door behind her, and waved to the approaching crowd.
"Teacher?" Yui Yuigahama blinked. "You've finally arrived... huh?"
Overcoat...?
Judging from the smoothness of Shizuka Hiratsuka's coat, it's highly likely that a fluffy wedding dress won't be hidden underneath.
Could it be that... the teacher regretted her promise that day, which is why she hasn't come yet?
But since I had already agreed, I felt I should at least show my face, which is why I appeared at this time.
And she wasn't wearing a wedding dress.
"Sorry I'm a little late." Shizuka Hiratsuka stubbed out her cigarette in her ashtray, meeting the eyes of each student. "She's even prettier than I imagined."
"This isn't just a little late," Yukino Yukinoshita said sternly. "And..."
"Where's the teacher's wedding dress?" Iroha Isshiki tilted her head to look at the car window, but it was tinted, so she couldn't see what was inside. "Is it in the car?"
"Well..." Shizuka Hiratsuka sighed softly.
Saki Kawasaki stared at Shizuka Hiratsuka: "You didn't actually plan to have a wedding at all—"
"You didn't find a wedding dress you liked, teacher?" Dong Yunshan spoke up. "I can have a friend send one over."
"What's with that expression?" Shizuka Hiratsuka reached out, wanting to ruffle Dong Yunshan's hair, but then pulled her hand back, remembering he was about to take a picture. "In your eyes, am I the kind of person who would run away at the last minute?"
Komachi Hikigaya asked curiously, "Then why isn't the teacher wearing a wedding dress?"
"How can I drive while wearing a wedding dress?" Shizuka Hiratsuka smiled mysteriously, casually taking off her coat. "Here it is~"
Beneath the coat, the lace trim on the off-the-shoulder neckline struggles to bear the soft weight of an adult. The elegant curves narrow at the waist and, with the embellishment of the short skirt, present a full and rounded shape, like a cello covered in white gauze.
Upon seeing Shizuka Hiratsuka's short skirt, Dong Yunshan suddenly remembered that teachers usually wore long pants, so her full and shapely legs were rarely seen.
"Wow~" Yui Yuigahama exclaimed in surprise, "So beautiful..."
Shizuka Hiratsuka, who previously wrote articles for a local magazine, wore a wedding dress once. This time, the style is different from before, and it has a unique beauty.
"I specially chose a new dress for today's photoshoot." Shizuka Hiratsuka draped the coat over her arm. "I was supposed to be on time, but... I remembered I have another student, so I called her along too. Helping her choose a wedding dress took up some time."
Shizuka Hiratsuka patted the car. "Get out."
The other car door opened, and a familiar yet unfamiliar figure stepped out.
What's familiar is the identity.
The people who came with Shizuka Hiratsuka were her Shizuka Hiratsuka Yukino Yukinoshita sister, Haruno Yukinoshita.
What was unfamiliar was her attire. Unlike her usual clothes, Haruno Yukinoshita wore an off-the-shoulder wedding dress with a gradually widening slit extending from her shoulder, covered by semi-transparent lace tulle. It was as if a ray of exquisite sunlight had fallen from her shoulder and disappeared into the fluffy white tulle skirt, revealing glimpses of her skin's luster.
"Hello~" Haruno Yukinoshita waved and greeted everyone, "Hi everyone~"
Yukino Yukinoshita stared blankly at her. "Sister?"
"What?" Haruno Yukinoshita, one hand on her hip. "Don't you recognize me?"
"After all, this is the first time I've seen you in a wedding dress..." Yukino Yukinoshita smiled, "It suits you very well."
"You scared me!" Haruno Yukinoshita patted her chest exaggeratedly. "I thought you weren't welcoming me."
Yukino Yukinoshita puffed out her cheeks slightly. "You're not welcome now."
"Hey~ How could this happen?" Haruno Yukinoshita leaned forward in the sports car, complaining to Dong Yunshan, "Yunshan, look at her."
"Yukino's still in a state of surprise, and you're still teasing her." Dong Yunshan shrugged. "Now she's angry, and I'm not going to help you coax her."
"Oh?" Haruno Yukinoshita turned to look at her younger sister. "Are you really surprised?"
Yukino Yukinoshita turned her head to the side. "Now you're even less welcome."
Haruno Yukinoshita smiled contentedly, "It seems like it was a real surprise."
"Awesome!" Iroha Isshiki exclaimed happily, "I can actually take wedding photos with Haruno Yukinoshita- senpai!"
"You can take as many pictures as you want~" Haruno Yukinoshita turned around gently, lifting her veil, "It's a rare occasion to wear a wedding dress."
"Hurry up!" Shizuka Hiratsuka threw her coat into the car. "Yunshan, help!"
Dong Yunshan: "Hmm?"
The next moment, the question in my heart was answered.
