Chapter 43

"Where would there be anyone?"

Qin Mu could not help but smile bitterly.

"That's good then."

Li Qin chuckled, tiptoed into the room, and then closed the door behind her.

"What do you need me for?"

Qin Mu asked curiously.

Why was she not sleeping in the middle of the night and instead running into his room?

"Uh..."

Li Qin sat on the edge of the bed, hesitated for a long while, and then with a flushed face, she stammered, "It... it's just, do you... know how to take those artistic pri... private photos?"

"Huh?"

Qin Mu was stunned.

He even suspected he had misheard, so he asked again, "What did you say?"

"Artistic private photos!"

Li Qin's face turned even redder.

Artistic private photos?

What does she want to do?

Qin Mu's expression stalled as he looked at Li Qin in confusion.

"No, don't get the wrong idea!"

Li Qin quickly explained, "I've seen many sisters take them; they are truly beautiful. I've always wanted to try, but never had the chance."

Qin Mu nodded silently.

Indeed, artistic private photos reveal a person's facial and physical advantages better than other artistic photos.

Of course, these are not boudoir photos; although the scene setup is similar, the clothing and styling are slightly more normal and not as revealing.

Many female stars in the entertainment industry take them, so he could understand.

After all, a girl's most beautiful youth only lasts for a decade or so, and naturally, she wants to record it to reminisce later.

"I have taken them before."

Qin Mu replied softly.

He was quite experienced in this area, especially since he had previously taken them to complete newcomer tasks to bundle orders.

Out of three thousand orders, over fifteen hundred were various artistic photos, and most of them were private photos.

*Cough, cough.*

"Then can you help me take some?"

Li Qin immediately stared at Qin Mu with burning eyes.

She hadn't dared to try before; although the style was only slightly alluring, being in a room alone with a strange photographer to take those kinds of photos...

She still had reservations in her heart.

However, she had now met Qin Mu, a man who made her heart flutter.

Coupled with the photos taken today, she had seen an even more beautiful version of herself.

Thus, the thought of 'recording the most beautiful years' quietly reignited.

"No problem."

"It's just that the scene setup and clothing aren't prepared yet."

Qin Mu smiled bitterly.

He couldn't shoot them right now.

The requirements for artistic private photos are actually quite high.

Not to mention the clothing, just the prop placement, scene lighting, and color temperature contrast all take a lot of time.

"No, I was just asking first. We can shoot when there's time later!"

Li Qin bit her lip, very happy, and asked, "Then what do I need to prepare?"

"Clothing."

Qin Mu explained patiently, "It can't be too revealing, but it can't be too modest either; this degree must be grasped just right. Besides, for a girl, the most precious things in youth are the face, legs, skin, hair, and so on."

"If you want to take them, you need to pay attention to these parts in your clothing."

"Then where do I buy these clothes?"

Li Qin took out her phone and asked curiously.

Taking private photos was her own idea; besides Qin Mu, she wouldn't tell anyone else.

After all, these are for her own keeping.

Therefore, she had to handle the preparations herself.

"These shops."

Qin Mu took the phone, selected a few high-quality shops that previous clients had favored, and said, "You take a look first and pick the ones you like."

"Okay."

Li Qin clicked on one at random.

Looking at the dazzling array of clothes inside, which were a tiny bit embarrassing, her face turned completely red.

Can these really be worn?!

"If you haven't tried this before, you still need to overcome that psychological barrier."

Qin Mu knew Li Qin had always been pure and had never encountered these things, so he smiled and said, "Go back and think about it first; tell me when you've decided."

"Mm."

With her head buried, Li Qin gave a barely audible 'mm' and quickly ran out.

So shy!

Watching her back, Qin Mu smiled and shook his head.

This girl.

She seemed to have become bolder, actually taking the initiative to ask for such photos.

She wasn't even afraid of him...

Of course, Qin Mu was very professional with his clients; especially during photography work, he only viewed everything with an artistic eye, without any impure thoughts.

But at other times, that was hard to say.

The next day.

Even when out of town, Qin Mu did not give up his habit of morning running.

He returned to the hotel half an hour later.

He found only Li Qin sitting in the room, bored, waiting for him.

"Where are Xiao Xue and Li Xuanliang?"

Qin Mu asked in confusion while packing his gear.

"Xiao Xue went back; she needs to take the photos back to the company for processing."

"Photographer Li received an urgent order this morning and left early too."

Li Qin said softly.

"Alright."

Qin Mu shrugged, not minding.

Everyone had their own things to do.

After the two had breakfast at the hotel, they set off.

Nanyanshan was far from the city center; it took a full hour by car to arrive.

The wind was light and the clouds were thin here, with pleasant scenery; it was a good vacation spot.

"Qinqin, Brother Qin!"

In front of a villa, Shen Mengchen waved happily. ===== CHAPTER 100 =====

She had messaged her when they were almost there, so she had come out early to welcome them.

"Wow, this villa is so big, and the surrounding scenery is too beautiful."

"Living here must be extremely comfortable."

Looking at the quiet environment with no one else around, stars twinkled in Li Qin's eyes.

If she weren't underage for the requirements, she would have wanted to participate in the show's recording too.

[Internal group number omitted]

"What's the use of having such a good environment? We don't have any time to appreciate it."

"All day long, besides practicing dance and singing, there are no other entertainment projects."

"Even meals are ordered as takeout."

Shen Mengchen looked distressed and sighed, "Sigh, it's been hard on me. I finally came to Chongqing, and I haven't even been able to eat hotpot once."

When she first joined the show, she thought she was just coming to play, but as the show became popular, they became busier and busier, wishing they could turn twenty-four hours a day into forty-eight!

Not only that, the secret competition among the sisters made everyone feel immense pressure.

How could they have time to play or enjoy the scenery?

"Mengchen, when your show recording is finished, I'll treat you to hotpot!"

"We'll eat it every day! For a whole week!"

Li Qin stuck out her tongue, feeling a bit sorry for her.

"I don't want to lie in the hospital for a month."

Shen Mengchen retorted.

After saying that, she led the two to the villa and gently pushed open the door.

Just as she was about to invite them in, her expression suddenly changed, and she slammed the door shut with a 'bang'.

"Sisters, Qinqin and Brother Qin are here!"

"Watch yourselves!"

Shen Mengchen shouted inside in a hurry.

She had been truly stunned just now.

In the living room, some were lying diagonally, some were exercising, some were washing their faces and brushing their teeth, and some were giggling.

Everything was happening!

Except for having any image!

"Ah? They're here? So fast!"

"Wait a moment, I'm going to put on some makeup!"

"Damn! I haven't even changed my clothes yet!"

Immediately, a clattering sound came from the villa.

Qin Mu and Li Qin looked at each other and both smiled sheepishly.
