He then patted his chest and assured everyone that he had experience in photography and that the photos he took would definitely amaze everyone.
But now, Chi Li has already posed as requested, yet filming has yet to begin.
"Taking pictures." Shen Xunye pressed the shutter a few times and adjusted the settings. "Hold on for one more minute."
In the actual footage, Chi Li occupies most of the frame.
Shen Xunye's composition is not particularly sophisticated; in fact, it could be described as somewhat haphazard.
But the unguarded languor and relaxation, and a homely sexiness emanating from Chi Li are exceptionally striking.
Chi Li looked through the photos Shen Xunye had sent and picked out three to post on social media.
The caption was simply [moon].
Almost as soon as it was posted, likes and comments started to surge.
Probably in order to get to the front, the initial comments were mostly simple ones like "Ahhhhhh" and "Wife, wife, wife."
But soon, the style changed.
The comments section was filled with playful banter.
[Isn't this totally boyfriend-perspective? It's so hard to guess who the photographer is.]
[The lighting, the angle, the model's completely relaxed and unguarded state—I wouldn't believe it wasn't taken by her boyfriend. [winking emoji]]
[He's even wearing his boyfriend's T-shirt, what the hell?!]
[The photographer's skills are good, but the model is even more appealing. [wink]]
[Out on business trip. (X) The young couple went on a private date. (√)]
I waited all day for my meal, only to be greeted with a mouthful of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection). [Smile]
[I really want to know if there are any solo fans here. [Looking around cautiously]]
[Actually, Chi Li has all kinds of fans. Fans of Dream 1 are very satisfied with the Shen Xunye character. Career fans don't care if the two are real or fake. Having a good-looking and non-troublesome male sister-in-law is incredibly worry-free. And it goes without saying how satisfied the "mommy fans" are with this love-struck son-in-law...]
[As for female fans, they probably all ran away when Chi Li's sexual orientation was revealed, right? [laughs]]
Where are our CP (couple) fans' names?!
I don't even want to talk about you CP fans. You just open your mouths all day and wait for the celebrities to throw in some sweet moments. [smile]
[There's no way around it, CP fans are the most pampered in this family. [Smug]]
[...]
Chi Li scrolled through the comments for a while, then turned off her phone and headed towards her bedroom.
"Assistant Shen," he casually assigned Shen Xunye a task. "Prepare my clothes for tomorrow, buy breakfast, and wake me up on time."
Shen Xunye nodded and replied quite professionally, "Okay, I guarantee I'll complete the task."
"And..." Chi Li stopped at the bedroom door, a hint of warning in her eyes. "You'll sleep in the other bedroom, and you're not allowed to climb into my bed at night."
"..." Shen Xunye subtly curled his lip. "I climb into bed, isn't that all for the sake of advancement?"
The thing he regrets most since becoming an assistant is booking the wrong hotel.
Thinking only that this presidential suite would make Chi Li more comfortable, they forgot that there was more than one bedroom here.
That's good now.
"No progress tonight." Chi Li leaned against the doorframe, a slight smile playing on his lips. "But... tomorrow night is permitted."
After saying that, he turned and went into the house, closing the heavy door to the bedroom.
Shen Xunye chuckled softly at the empty space.
He liked Chi Li's unpretentious and frank demeanor.
The next day, on the film set.
After changing into her costume and having a brief talk with the crew, Chi Li began filming for the day.
We have two consecutive scenes to film today.
The first is the scene where the Omega meets two Alphas at the same time for the first time and is asked by them to make a 'choose one' choice.
Since Lu Wei cannot use shadow clones, a stand-in was needed to sit next to him and help with the filming during the actual shooting.
The production team had hired a professional stunt double, but Jiang Shi felt that they couldn't let Shen Xunye, who was at least somewhat famous, do it, so he slapped his forehead and decided to let him do it.
Fortunately, the two were about the same size, with Lu Wei only a few centimeters shorter than him. With a soft cushion under his buttocks, it was really hard to tell them apart from behind.
"OK." Jiang Shi sat in front of the monitor, looking very interested. "Power on, action—"

"As you can see, you've been dating not just one person, but two." The older brother, played by Lu Wei, spoke first.
Omega's eyes were filled with surprise, disbelief, and fear. "... Two people?" he asked cautiously. "Then, who was it yesterday?"
"It's me." Shen Xunye's younger brother lazily raised his hand. "Sorry, I kissed you until you cried yesterday."
Omega's face flushed red. He glanced at his brother and whispered, "The rest doesn't really need to be said."
"It's alright, let him have his fun if he wants to be witty," the older brother said 'magnanimously.' "By the way, I was the first person you met, and even now, you only know my name."
Omega, stunned, stammered, "Oh..."
The younger brother, with a dark expression, announced his name, "That's my name, remember it well."
"Although the names are similar..." The Omega nodded obediently. "But I've remembered them."
The younger brother was very satisfied. "Good boy."
"Alright, let's get down to business." The older brother pushed a chart in front of the Omega. "This chart records the days we appeared separately, and roughly what we did on those days. Now, you can use this chart to help you recall who you got along with better, and then choose who to date."
Omega felt dizzy looking at the dense text above.
No matter how clearly it was written on the form, he still couldn't completely distinguish between the two people.
The only thing he was certain of was that he had moments when he felt attracted to both of them.
"I can't choose." The Omega gave up without hesitation. "... I don't necessarily have to choose one of the two, right?"
He has a gentle nature, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have a temper.
Even if you develop feelings for someone, so what?
He's not stupid; these two pretending to be one person pursuing him are essentially just trying to toy with him.
Just because you like him now doesn't mean you can erase the bad things you did before.
"You want to have both women?" The younger brother misunderstood the Omega's meaning and teased with a laugh, "So greedy!"
"I'm not choosing either of them!" Omega said with a serious expression, pushing the questionnaire back. "Yes, you're both very handsome, gentlemanly, and charming. I'm very, very tempted. But I believe that sincerity is the prerequisite for any relationship."
"I'm so dense. I didn't notice anything amiss before, and even if I'm prepared, I might not be able to tell the difference in the future. What if I mistake my boyfriend for someone else and cause a huge mistake..." Omega instantly had some thoughts and subconsciously shrank back. "It wouldn't be good for anyone."
