It's April now.
The temperature in Guangcheng in April was already quite high, reaching as high as the thirties.
Even with an umbrella, you'll start sweating in the open air after a short while.
At this moment, outside the school gate.
Gu Fan held up an umbrella to shield the girl beside him from the sun's rays.
The umbrella belonged to Jiang Yumeng; it was a single-person umbrella and quite small. Gu Fan, worried that the girl would get sunburned, tilted most of the umbrella towards her.
He silently endured being exposed to the direct sunlight, and his back was soaked with sweat in no time.
Seeing this, Jiang Yumeng quickly took the umbrella and raised her snow-white arm high to shield Gu Fan from the sun.
"Senior, you're sweating!"
Gu Fan smiled and wiped away his sweat, saying, "It is indeed a bit hot, but I'm fine. I'm a guy, so getting a tan won't hurt me."
Seeing the girl standing on tiptoe, he couldn't bear to see her in so much pain, so he took the umbrella and shielded her with it: "The driver should be here soon, hang in there."
Jiang Yumeng pouted: "It's all my fault. It's so hot, and I still asked my senior to come out. Why don't we go back?"
Gu Fan chuckled: "We're already here, why go back?"
Jiang Yumeng looked at him with heartache: "Senior, your clothes are all wet, yet you still held the umbrella over me."
Gu Fan smiled and said, "It's okay if I get a tan, but you can't get a tan."
"Why?" Jiang Yumeng tilted her head.
Gu Fan smiled faintly and said, "Because I like you even more, Bai Bai."
Jiang Yumeng blushed upon hearing this and glared at him playfully, saying, "Senior, you're such a bad guy! Be serious for once."
Ever since they got together, this guy has been flirting with him all the time, completely different from the shy boy he used to be.
Gu Fan burst into laughter.
Just then, a new energy vehicle stopped in front of them.
The two got into the car, and the driver turned on the air conditioning. A wave of coolness washed over them, and they immediately felt alive again.
"Is this the last four digits of your license plate 8363?"
"Yes, Master, thank you for your help."
"Alright! Please take your seats."
About forty minutes later, the two arrived at the plaza in front of the shopping mall building.
After getting off the bus, Jiang Yumeng dragged Gu Fan to buy two iced drinks.
Jiang Yumeng handed one of the cups to Gu Fan, saying, "Here, this is an apology gift for my senior."
Gu Fan took the cold drink and smiled, "Thank you."
Then they went into the mall. The mall was cool inside, like a different world from the outside.
"Shall we go pick out swimsuits first?" Jiang Yumeng said excitedly.
"Okay, there's a house up ahead, let's go check it out."
Gu Fan nodded.
The girl asked him out mainly to buy a swimsuit; the weather was too hot, and she was thinking of going swimming.
There aren't many styles of swimsuits here, since not many people buy them here.
I looked around, but couldn't find anything suitable.
Jiang Yumeng looked a little depressed.
Gu Fan patted her head: "It's okay if we don't have any, we can buy them online."
Jiang Yumeng was a little disappointed and muttered, "I even searched online, and this is the only one nearby."
I never expected it to be so rudimentary.
I wish I hadn't come.
After failing the main quest, the girl lost interest in shopping.
She let Gu Fan lead her around the mall.
After taking the elevator to the third floor, Gu Fan looked around and then seemed to notice something, his eyes lighting up.
There is a photo studio not far away.
"Does Senior want to take a picture?" Jiang Yumeng also realized why Gu Fan brought her up here.
Gu Fan's lips curled up: "It's our turn to film. Let's go, give it a try."
Stepping into the photo studio, I discovered that it was not as ordinary as it appeared from the outside. The interior decoration was eye-catching, and there was even a large room specifically for taking photos.
"Hello, would you like to take a photo or have it edited?" A girl with exquisite makeup greeted them warmly.
Gu Fan looked around and then said, "Could you take some photos for us?"
The girl smiled and nodded: "Of course, would you two like to wear makeup?"
Gu Fan pondered for a moment, then asked, "How much is it?"
"If it's just for taking photos, it only costs 30 yuan per person for the venue fee and printing fee. If you want makeup and costumes, it's 80 yuan per person," the proprietress explained with a smile.
Gu Fan looked at Jiang Yumeng and smiled, "What do you think?"
Jiang Yumeng's eyes showed curiosity and interest: "What kind of clothes are there?"
The proprietress led the two to the dressing room, where they saw two rows of all kinds of clothes, including regular fashion clothes, skirts, formal wear, traditional costumes, and ethnic minority costumes.
Ultimately, the two chose to change outfits for the shoot.
Jiang Yumeng chose an ancient costume dress, while Gu Fan, wanting to take matching photos with her, also chose an ancient costume robe.
Next came the makeup, and naturally, Jiang Yumeng went first.
The proprietress herself did her makeup, and she exclaimed in amazement, "Your skin is so good, you look great even without makeup!"
She wasn't joking; the girl's skin was as fair and rosy as a baby's, and she was very beautiful. Even she had rarely seen such a beautiful girl.
"Thanks."
Jiang Yumeng felt a little happy.
After the makeup was done, Jiang Yumeng, dressed in ancient costume, seemed like a completely different person.
She was already beautiful and lovely, but now she was even more radiant and charming. With the ancient costume as a backdrop, her elegant demeanor as a lady from a prominent family was even more evident.
Even Gu Fan was somewhat stunned by what he saw.
"Alright, young man, it's your turn!" the proprietress said with a smile.
