Qin Beiming glanced at the photos sent by Lu Jinjiu with little interest, and was about to casually report them for pornography when he unexpectedly discovered that the man in the photos was Ling Yunlong, so he gave up the idea.
Since it concerned the Ling family, he suddenly became interested and quickly sent a voice message:
[What's going on with Ling Yunlong? Did you ambush him?]
[It wasn't exactly a sneak attack. It started about an hour ago when I was chatting away with a new female internet celebrity at the Everlasting Palace, and I happened to run into Ling Yunlong staying there alone. I was thinking that he and Su Yu always bullied my third sister-in-law, so if I could use this opportunity to sow discord between them, maybe my third sister-in-law's impression of me would improve.]
Upon hearing this, Gu Nanfeng chuckled. He had originally thought that Lu Jinjiu didn't like Ling Mo very much, but unexpectedly, Lu Jinjiu had already begun to secretly show his affection for Ling Mo.
Huo Yunting glanced at the set of explicit photos in the group chat, then subconsciously glanced at Song Xingwan, who was curled up on the sofa reviewing her lessons. Seeing that she hadn't noticed the photos on his phone, he quickly pressed the delete button and, incidentally, suggested to Lu Jinjiu:
[Xiao Jiu, remember to blur out the faces of people in these kinds of photos before posting them in the future. My third brother and I are both married; it would be difficult to explain if we were caught.]
【Okkkk】
After Huo Yunting's suggestion, Lu Jinjiu also felt that the photo was a bit too large.
He casually blurred out the sensitive areas of the two people in the photo, and after everything was done, he uploaded it again.
[Third Brother, after you send these photos to Third Sister-in-law, don't steal my credit!]
[She's still young, would it be inappropriate to send it directly to her?]
Qin Beiming frowned slightly, suddenly worried that his actions might offend her.
Lu Jinjiu: [Third sister-in-law is almost 1.7 meters tall, and you still think she's young?]
Gu Tingbai: [I think it's okay to post it. Yesterday I even saw Li Wanwan secretly showing her third sister-in-law photos of male celebrities working out, so I guess her third sister-in-law likes to look at those too. At this age, they're curious about everything.]
Gu Nanfeng: [I've already blurred it out. Not only will it not offend Third Sister-in-law's eyes, but she'll also think you're thoughtful and meticulous, which will earn you a lot of goodwill.]
"Male celebrities' workout photos?"
Qin Beiming stared intently at the message sent by Gu Tingbai, feeling extremely displeased.
What male celebrities are good-looking?
Could someone possibly be better looking than him?
Qin Beiming originally wanted to find a photo of himself working out in his album to post on his WeChat Moments, but he found that there was only one photo in the album of Ling Mo wearing a school uniform with water droplets still dripping from his hair.
Strange, where is his photo?
Could it be that he doesn't have a single selfie on his phone all these years?
Qin Beiming had a terrible headache, and for the first time he truly understood what it meant to "regret not having enough resources when you need them."
After practicing his selfie skills for over half an hour, Qin Beiming suddenly ran into another problem.
With hundreds of selfies laid out in front of him, he was momentarily at a loss as to which photo best suited a young girl's aesthetic.
After careful consideration, he finally gave up the idea of sending Ling Mo a selfie and instead forwarded her the photos that Lu Jinjiu had edited.
Just as Ling Mo was about to turn off the lights and go to sleep, he unexpectedly received a photo of Ling Yunlong. His sleepy eyes were jolted open wide by the photo, and he suddenly became wide awake.
【This is? ? ? 】
[Xiao Jiu bumped into Ling Yunlong at the Never-Sleeping Palace and had her female companion take these photos. I thought these photos might be useful to you, so I'm forwarding them to you.]
I see, thank you.
Qin Beiming had originally planned to take this opportunity to ask her out for dinner, and replied with a slightly arrogant tone:
You think you can just brush me off with a simple "thank you"? I think you could have been more sincere.
[...]
Ling Mo reflected deeply and realized that the other person had done her a great favor, but she had only moved her lips to say thank you, which was indeed not very sincere.
Seeing that Ling Mo had only typed a string of ellipses, Qin Beiming mistakenly thought she was angry with him, so he quickly retracted his previous sentence and reorganized his words:
Don't be so polite with me, it's all I should do. (Smiling face)
Before she could reply, he felt that the upward curve of his smiling expression wasn't big enough, so he retracted his previous post, re-edited it, and added a heart emoji.
Looking at Qin Beiming's series of baffling actions, Ling Mo suddenly recalled that not long ago, she had only not replied to Qin Beiming's WeChat messages for half a day, and he had done the same thing, sending and receiving the same two sentences back and forth, but then deleting them countless times.
Does he really need to hesitate for so long before sending a WeChat message?
Ling Mo pondered his inner thoughts as he edited the WeChat message, and a knowing smile quietly bloomed on her face.
Unexpectedly, the seemingly serious and meticulous Third Master Qin has such a fun side in private.
To ease his tension, Ling Mo simply sent him a voice message:
Third Master, just tell me what gift you want as a token of my gratitude. There's no need for so much formality between friends.
Upon receiving Ling Mo's reply, Qin Beiming, who was usually calm and collected, became unusually tense, his fingertips trembling slightly with nervousness.
After relaying Ling Mo's words to the brothers in the group, he hurriedly and anxiously asked:
She sent me a voice message, asking in a calm tone what I wanted as a thank you gift. How should I reply?
Lu Jinjiu: [Just tell her what's on your mind! Tell her directly that the gift you want most is her.]
Huo Yunting: [That's inappropriate. Your relationship isn't close enough yet; your conversation should never be frivolous.]
Gu Nanfeng: [Third Brother, be sure to control the pace and don't rush. Just tell her that you're helping her not to make her grateful, but simply to make her happy as much as possible.]
