"Manman, why don't you wear Hanfu and let me see it all by myself? I'd really like to see what you look like in Hanfu."
Lin Manman's face instantly turned red, and some anime scenes immediately flashed through her mind—even scenes where the female characters wore bikinis or even less fabric, for the male protagonist to admire alone.
Thinking of this, her face grew redder and redder, and she gave Lin Yuan a shy glare.
"You wish! I'm not going to act out such an embarrassing scene!"
Seeing her shy expression, Lin Yuan couldn't help but burst into laughter and affectionately ruffled her hair.
"Just kidding! But I'm really curious, you must look beautiful in Hanfu."
Lin Manman's face turned even redder, and she lowered her head and muttered softly.
"You're always bullying me..."
Lin Yuan smiled slightly, his eyes filled with tenderness like spring water.
"Manman, when you have some free time, let's go pick out a Hanfu together. I'll help you capture those beautiful moments, consider it payment for pretending to be your boyfriend and helping you shoo away flies."
Upon hearing this, Lin Manman's eyes immediately sparkled like stars, shimmering with indescribable joy.
"Really? When are we going?"
Her voice was full of anticipation; she couldn't wait to embark on this special journey just for the two of them.
Her soft whispers echoed in Lin Yuan's ears, and his thoughts drifted back to those innocent and beautiful college years, a faint sense of nostalgia welling up in his heart.
Lin Manman's thoughts quietly leaped into another dimension, where anime girls, dressed in swimsuits of varying styles—simple or elaborate—showcased the vitality and beauty of youth in the most natural way.
Although this sudden association seemed somewhat out of place with the topic at hand, it subtly added a touch of whimsy to the agreement.
Then, Lin Manman's face turned even redder. She lowered her head and muttered softly, "You always do this, teasing me and then secretly laughing to yourself."
She slowly raised her eyes, a hint of reproach flickering with an elusive charm.
Then, an overwhelming sense of happiness washed over her, and a gentle smile appeared on her lips.
However, I really look forward to the Hanfu photography project that Brother Lin Yuan just mentioned.
hey-hey!
Lin Yuan's gaze gently settled on Lin Manman's delicate, porcelain-like face. Her cheeks were flushed by the setting sun, like two ripe apples, and her eyes held a shy yet intensely eager anticipation.
He raised his eyebrows slightly, a ripple of confusion stirring in his heart, but he did not rush to ask. He simply watched her silently, giving her a quiet space.
Lin Manman lowered her eyes shyly, her slender fingers unconsciously twisting the hem of her clothes. Every subtle movement revealed her inner panic and her nervousness as she tried to calm herself down. The whole world seemed to stand still at that moment, just to listen to the echo of her heartbeat.
He knew all too well that girls' thoughts were like a tangled mess, sometimes even they themselves couldn't figure them out, let alone him, an outsider.
He smiled slightly, ready to hear what she had to say next.
"Lin Yuan, I...I promise you."
As if she had made up her mind, Lin Manman raised her head, looked at Lin Yuan with a firm gaze, and whispered.
Her voice trembled slightly, clearly as she tried to overcome her nervousness.
Lin Yuan was taken aback for a moment, then gave a gentle smile.
"Okay, Manman, whatever you're willing to do."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Manman quickly added, "However, you have to agree to two conditions."
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow, looking at her with interest.
"Tell me, what are your conditions?"
Lin Manman took a deep breath and mustered her courage to say, "First, you can't force me to play any role-playing games; second, you can't take any photos that show my nipples."
She finished speaking in one breath, looking at Lin Yuan warily, afraid that he might suddenly change his expression.
Lin Yuan was instantly stunned, frozen on the spot, with a look of bewilderment on his face.
He just wanted to see what Lin Manman looked like in Hanfu, so why did she suddenly make those random, inappropriate connections?
He hadn't even had a chance to tease the girl in front of him yet, and he hadn't even fulfilled his promise of VIP uniform service!
He couldn't help but shake his head, exasperated, and said, "Manman, what are you talking about? It sounds like I'm a pervert to me!"
Lin Manman's face turned even redder. She lowered her head and muttered softly, "I... I was just afraid you would suddenly make some strange request."
She looked up, a hint of grievance in her eyes, and said, "Please don't be angry, okay?"
Lin Yuan sighed helplessly, reached out and gently tapped her head, saying affectionately, "What on earth is going on in your little head? It's really worrying."
He gently ruffled her hair, his tone carrying a subtle mix of helplessness and doting affection.
"I just wanted to see you look stunning in Hanfu; I had no intention of thinking about anything strange or unusual."
Lin Manman's cheeks flushed slightly, a shy smile appeared on her lips, and her eyes sparkled with embarrassment.
"I...I don't know what happened to me, those strange images just popped into my mind for no reason."
As she spoke, she lowered her eyes slightly, her voice barely audible, "Do I... seem ridiculous?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan's lips curved into a gentle smile. He gently pulled her into his broad chest and whispered with boundless comfort, "Silly girl, you're very smart, it's just that you're sometimes too sensitive."
He gently patted her back.
"However, I like you just the way you are."
"real?"
"certainly."
Feeling the fragrant body in his arms, Lin Yuan's heart raced involuntarily.
He recalled the indescribable scene in Lin Manman's mind earlier, and a surge of lust rose within him.
Lin Manman lowered her head slightly, her face instantly turning bright red.
"Manman, did you do this on purpose?"
She quickly shook her head: "No, no, I just accidentally..."
Before she could finish speaking, Lin Yuan gently silenced her with a kiss.
The kiss was gentle yet passionate, aiming to melt away all her shyness.
This wasn't the first time the two had kissed. After the kiss, they held hands and walked together into the maple forest.
Sunlight filters through the gaps in the maple leaves, casting dappled patterns of light and shadow on the ground.
Lin Manman leaned against Lin Yuan's chest, her eyes full of dependence.
Lin Yuan gently embraced her, lowered his head, and the two hugged tightly and kissed passionately.
At that moment, everything around them disappeared, leaving only each other.
