Chapter 40: Come Closer
Several people rushed over from a distance, surrounded the two men, and questioned them with serious faces.
Lin Xia was startled by the angry shout and looked at these people warily.
When these people rushed over, Lu Yuxiu stepped forward and stood in front of Lin Xia, blocking her body. He asked calmly and seriously, "Excuse me, what can I do for you?"
"What are you two doing on the street, a man and a woman?" the man came in with an aggressive tone, as if he had caught someone committing adultery.
When Lin Xia heard this, she felt a chill on her back and something seemed to flash through her mind.
"We are husband and wife, here is our marriage certificate." Lu Yuxiu simply showed the marriage certificate and calmly blocked it.
The leader looked at the two of them suspiciously, stepped forward and took the marriage certificate. Seeing that it was indeed stamped, he reluctantly returned the marriage certificate to Lu Yuxiu and said fiercely before leaving: "Be careful on the street, even if you are a couple, don't hold hands when you get home!"
Lin Xia looked at the figure walking away, and her heart seemed to fall back to its original place. Her hands trembled slightly after being nervous, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her back.
"It's okay, let's go." Lu Yuxiu noticed that the little girl's face was pale and her breathing was rapid, and he comforted her gently.
His voice was low and soft, with a hint of soothing in his tone. Lin Xia breathed a sigh of relief when she heard his voice and was no longer so panicked.
Fortunately, they have already obtained the marriage certificate.
It was at this moment that Lin Xia felt for the first time how correct her decision to marry Lu Yuxiu was.
As the two of them were walking, Lu Yuxiu saw that the little girl seemed to still be immersed in the panic just now.
He looked around and suddenly asked, "Do you want to take a photo?"
Lin Xia, who was feeling thankful, heard the man's gentle question and looked up at him in confusion.
Looking at the little girl's fair face and her watery eyes full of doubts, Lu Yuxiu's eyes flashed with a smile, and he pulled Lin Xia forward.
Lin Xia looked at the man holding her hand and felt that the hand was big, warm and dry, as if it could wrap around her hand completely.
When Lin Xia arrived at a shabby door, she was still a little confused.
It was not until I entered that I discovered that there was a different world inside. Although the outside was shabby, the interior was decorated with a strong sense of age. There were some old black-and-white photos hanging on the wall, as if it were the setting in a movie.
When the boss saw a man and woman dressed similarly coming in, he knew that they were probably a newlywed couple. His shop was not far from the marriage registration office, and newlyweds often came to take photos.
“You guys come to take pictures?”
Lin Xia looked at the boss in a gray coat and nodded, "Yes."
The boss took the initiative to tell Lin Xia the price of taking photos. When Lin Xia heard it, she turned to look at the man. When she saw him nod, she told the boss that she wanted to take the photo.
"Then come and sit down." The boss was happy to see that the two of them agreed readily.
Lin Xia didn't move. She looked at the dressing table over there and asked the boss, "Can I use the cosmetics?"
Hearing this, the boss looked at the girl in front of him with some surprise. Most people wouldn't use this kind of cosmetics. Could she be a rich lady from some wealthy family?
"No one knows how to use this now, so just use it if you can." The boss waved his hand and let her go.
Seeing this, Lin Xia happily started to play with the cosmetics, and even found a lipstick, which surprised her!
She has been going to bed early and getting up early these days, and her skin condition is getting better and better. The 19-year-old girl has no blemishes on her face, her skin is fair and translucent, and she doesn't need to use foundation to cover anything.
Lin Xia picked out an eyebrow pencil. The original owner had beautiful eyebrows, so she just picked up the eyebrow pencil to deepen her eyebrows.
Her eyelashes were thick and curled, so there was no need to modify them. Lin Xia only used the eyebrow pencil as eyeliner to draw the tail of her eyes.
Lin Xia dipped her finger in a little lipstick, and her lips became full and bright red, with her lips slightly upturned. Her already outstanding face suddenly became the focus, and the whole person instantly seemed to be covered with a layer of rich oil painting color.
Lin Xia looked at herself in the mirror and lamented the Creator's preference for this face.
Let’s just treat today’s wedding as a commemoration. If Lu Yuxiu hadn’t been by her side, she wouldn’t have dared to be so high-profile in this turbulent era.
Lin Xia quickly finished her makeup with a few strokes, and inexplicably felt a sense of anticipation for the man's reaction.
Lu Yuxiu had been watching the little girl's every move from behind. Seeing her tinkering with something, he waited quietly on the side, with a soft light flashing in his eyes.
Lin Xia stood up, turned around, and stared at Lu Yuxiu without missing a single change.
The man watched her turn around, and the look in his eyes as he stared at her gradually changed, becoming somewhat deep.
Lin Xia felt her heart palpitate when she saw his gaze. She felt as if her ears were burning and she became inexplicably nervous.
When the photo studio owner saw the little girl with her makeup on, he couldn't help but sigh. He had been taking photos for so many years, but this was the first time he had seen someone so beautiful.
Lin Xia and Lu Yuxiu sat on the stool together.
Lin Xia and Lu Yuxiu sat on a stool, facing the camera. The man sat upright, with a stern face and tightly pursed lips. Lin Xia felt the man's oppression and inexplicable tension.
The photographer looked at the two people and said with a smile: "Don't be so serious, comrade. Smile too, comrade."
When Lu Yuxiu heard this, he smiled bitterly in his heart and tried his best to restrain his momentum.
Lin Xia turned her head to look at the man's sliding Adam's apple, and suddenly remembered something in her mind. She realized that she seemed to have dug a hole for herself, and felt annoyed.
The photographer looked at the picture, still feeling somewhat dissatisfied, and gave instructions again.
"Hey, gay, please move closer to the lesbians. You are too far away."
"Lesbians, move over there too"
"Oh, okay!"
"Comrade, smile a little, don't be so serious!"
Someone interrupted her, and Lin Xia felt much more relaxed. She couldn't help but look at the man, and found that the man still had a serious expression, as if facing a great enemy.
She stretched out her finger and poked the man's arm, feeling the hardness of his muscles, and whispered softly, "Relax!"
Lu Yuxiu listened to the soft voice. The little girl had just retracted her fingers and felt numbness on one side of her arm. Hearing this, a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
This smile scared the photographer. It was so scary to see this handsome comrade smile.
Lin Xia saw the corners of her master's mouth twitching, and looked at Lu Yuxiu curiously. After seeing the man's smile, she almost couldn't hold it in, and said jokingly: "Hahaha~ Don't laugh!"
"I'll do it!"
Lu Yuxiu turned around and saw the little girl smiling brightly with her eyes curved, her look bright and seductive. The man felt relieved when he saw her, and his expression couldn't help but become much gentler.
The master looked at the two well-matched people with satisfaction and pressed the button.
“Bang!”
The flash used in old-fashioned cameras makes a loud noise and emits fire and smoke when taking pictures.
Lin Xia was startled, but it didn’t matter, because the most beautiful looks of the two had been recorded.
"I want to take a few more pictures." At this moment, she wanted to keep it as a memory, as she was afraid she wouldn't have time to take pictures once she got to the island.
"Okay." Lu Yuxiu had also adapted to it at this moment and nodded in agreement.
After the two of them took a bunch of photos, the boss was secretly amazed, wondering who would spend so much money on taking photos.
There were too many photos to be taken and it was impossible to get them immediately, so Lin Xia made an appointment with the master to pick them up in three days.
