Chapter 96: Taking Photos

~7 min read 1,302 words

Upon learning this "bad news," for a moment, Shen Yan felt like he wanted to die.

He couldn't exactly fight a bloody battle, so in desperation, Shen Yan leaned into Hao Anqi's ear and whispered, "Qiqi, I'm uncomfortable, you... like this..."

Hao Anqi was somewhat hesitant, her cheeks flushed red, but she couldn't resist Shen Yan's soft pleading, so she had no choice but to undo the buttons of his jeans and reach out with her jade-like hand...

"Hurry up!"

"Why aren't you done yet!"

After a long while, Shen Yan, his pressure relieved, let out a long sigh.

Heavens! This was truly too torturous.

In truth, Hao Anqi was also extremely uncomfortable; it was her first time knowing there were so many twists and turns to it, and theory was completely different from practice.

Five minutes later, the scene was cleaned up, and the two, now fully dressed, nuzzled against each other for a while, whispering sweet nothings with tenderness.

After this incident, although the two had not taken the final step, their relationship had undoubtedly grown a bit closer.

Then Shen Yan called Wu Yue'er to ask if she was home and to come over to the next door.

After entering the room, Wu Yue'er spotted Hao Anqi leaning on the sofa at a glance; she was wearing a light green dress, her face as bewitching as a fox's, and her large eyes were full of spirit.

"An Qi is here too!" Despite harboring some resentment toward Hao Anqi, she still greeted her politely.

"Yes! We meet again!" Hao Anqi returned the smile.

Shen Yan got straight to the point and said, "Yue'er, you've been a print model before, so you should be very clear about the source of display photos on Taobao, right?"

"Of course, I've even modeled for sample photos for others, but why are you asking so suddenly?" Wu Yue'er looked puzzled.

"It's like this, I want to hire you as a model to shoot a few sets of photos to upload to a Taobao shop."

Shen Yan pointed to the sample clothes on the coffee table and said straightforwardly.

Linking this to the phone call from last night, Wu Yue'er instantly had some guesses; these clothes were clearly taken from a factory, and Shen Yan was preparing to open an online shop himself to sell women's clothing.

She picked up the sample clothes to look at them; they were thermal underwear and down jackets, and both the style and craftsmanship were quite good, so she decisively agreed.

"We haven't even discussed the pay yet, and you've already agreed."

"We're buddies, it doesn't matter if you pay or not; maybe if the product sells well, my value will skyrocket," Wu Yue'er joked.

Of course, given her relationship with Shen Yan, she really didn't take this small amount of money to heart.

You're straightforward, so I won't dawdle either.

Shen Yan took out an agreement directly and said, "Friendship is friendship, business is business. Take a look at this contract; we'll protect each other's rights and interests. If you think there's no problem, sign it."

Ha! Quite well-prepared.

Wu Yue'er didn't act coy either; she picked up the agreement and flipped through it casually. The content of the agreement was actually very simple, emphasizing a few points.

1. Party A owns the copyright to the photos taken during this process and has the right to use the photos for internet promotion and related brand promotion.

2. Without the permission of Party B, Party A shall not use the photos elsewhere.

3. Party B guarantees that Party A will not be sued by Party B for infringement of portrait rights due to the taking or use of the photos.

If there is a breach of contract, the relevant responsibilities must be borne.

With a wave of her hand, Wu Yue'er signed her name.

"Tell me, how should we shoot?"

Shen Yan said, "You go to the bathroom first to change into the thermal underwear, Qiqi will be in charge of shooting, and I will guide from the side."

The following process was simple and unadorned. Wu Yue'er's professional competence was excellent; she put on exquisite makeup and tirelessly changed clothes back and forth, her demeanor dignified and full of temperament. Although Hao Anqi had no experience as a print model, her father was a photographer himself, and having been influenced by him, Hao Anqi's shooting skills were very solid.

Coupled with Shen Yan's guidance from the side, one photo after another was produced.

In the blink of an eye, three hours passed. After checking the photos, Shen Yan nodded with satisfaction and then took out five hundred-yuan bills.

"Take it, a reward from this master."

Wu Yue'er didn't refuse; she waved her hand and, in the tone of a famous courtesan from a brothel, said in a sickeningly sweet way, "Master, come patronize me again next time."

Shen Yan was floored!

Wu Yue'er giggled and then turned and left gracefully.

"Earned five hundred yuan in three hours, being a model is so lucrative!"

Hao Anqi was particularly envious of Wu Yue'er's self-reliant lifestyle, and the key was that earning money was so easy. Unfortunately, she wasn't tall enough, otherwise, she would have wanted to try her hand in the modeling circle.

"Hey! Models eat off their youth, while photographers rely on seniority; there's nothing to compare," Shen Yan said to comfort her.

In fact, the two really weren't comparable; often, the money earned by some high-end models during their youth was worth several lifetimes of a photographer's income.

Wu Yue'er's innate conditions were right there; she was the type who was purely gifted by the heavens.

He took out his phone and looked: 10:52.

Shen Yan said, "It's so late, just sleep in the guest bedroom; I'll take you to class tomorrow morning."

"What? Leaving your girlfriend to keep an empty room alone?" Hao Anqi teased.

That charming and coquettish posture made Shen Yan feel a surge of fire in his heart, yet he had nowhere to vent it. Sigh! Perhaps this is what they call "good things come after much trouble."

The next morning, sunlight shone through the curtains, forming streaks of light and shadow on the walls, bringing infinite vitality to the quiet room.

On the Large Bed, Hao Anqi's delicate body was wrapped in the quilt, lying on the left side of the bed, while Shen Yan lay on the right, separated by a vast distance.

They were even fully dressed.

There was no help for it; if they sparked a fire, the one who would be uncomfortable in the end would be himself.

Before long, Hao Anqi woke up faintly from her sleep. The unfamiliar environment made her nervous at first, but when she noticed Shen Yan sleeping soundly on the other side, she let out a soft breath.

Not to mention, her little boyfriend looked so handsome even when he was asleep.

Hao Anqi couldn't help but lean over, gently tracing her finger over his sharp, sculpted features, murmuring, "So handsome!"

In his grogginess, Shen Yan felt someone touching him, frowned, swatted it away with one hand, and then sniffled.

"Giggle!" That cute action made Hao Anqi unable to help but laugh.

Only then did Shen Yan notice something was wrong. Opening his eyes, he saw Hao Anqi right in front of him. Still having some morning grumpiness, he reached out and pinched Hao Anqi's nose, complaining, "Can't you just be quiet? You won't even let a person sleep in peace."

"It's about time, I still have to go to morning self-study," Hao Anqi said with a sweet smile.

Shen Yan sighed helplessly, got out of bed to find a set of toiletries for Hao Anqi, and the two of them quickly tidied up.
