Chapter 109: A blind date
Yan Jingshu was dressed very formally, with a white shirt and black pants, both of which were ironed neatly.
On his feet were a pair of shiny black leather shoes.
He seldom dresses like this, he must be going to some special occasion or meeting some important person.
Tang Shuangshuang was afraid that Yan Jingshu would be unhappy and embarrassed when she heard her sister speak so impolitely, so she immediately said, "Xueli, don't be so aggressive when you speak. Why are you meddling in other people's affairs?"
"He has something to do, let him do his own thing." Tang Xueli glanced at Yan Jingshu, meaning that he should say goodbye and leave on his own.
Yan Jingshu naturally understood the look she gave him, but he did not respond immediately.
Tang Shuangshuang asked in confusion: "Huh? Didn't Teacher Yan just say he wasn't busy?"
"He's just talking nonsense." Tang Xueli said calmly, "He's embarrassed to refuse your kindness."
"Is that so? Forget it then." Tang Shuangshuang didn't understand what was going on between the two of them. Why was the atmosphere so weird? "Teacher Yan, don't be embarrassed. We can make an appointment again when you are free in the future."
"I'm really fine." Yan Jingshu smiled, looked at Tang Xueli, and whispered, "If you don't welcome me to participate in your family activities, then I won't force myself to join."
Tang Xueli: "..."
She said this as if she was cold and heartless.
"Then why are you dressed like this?" she asked.
Yan Jingshu said, "The club wants to take a group photo, and they asked us to dress like this."
"Where were you originally planning to go?" Tang Xueli had just seen him walking out of the newspaper office with her own eyes, as if he was going somewhere.
"I'm going home to change clothes." Yan Jingshu's answer was simply impeccable.
"What time did you take the group photo? You finished it so quickly?"
Tang Xueli usually wouldn't go to great lengths to get to the bottom of other people's affairs. Today, she just felt that Yan Jingshu was not telling the truth and was inexplicably showing off too much.
Tang Shuangshuang patted Tang Xueli's shoulder and said, "You are interrogating the prisoner!"
Yan Jingshu replied nonchalantly, "We filmed it at 7 o'clock and it was finished very quickly."
Tang Xueli thought about it and said, "Then let's go together."
Yan Jingshu laughed so happily, like a dog with a whole huge bone.
Tang Xueli suddenly felt someone staring at her in the dark, but she couldn't tell who it was.
Could it be that Chi Daben has been following us?
After feeling it carefully, it seems not to be the case.
Walked to the park and rented a boat.
Five adults holding a child, just right.
Tang Shuangshuang was extremely excited and rowed the boat very hard.
The person holding the oar on the other side was Yan Jingshu. He controlled the direction and speed, and rowed the boat very steadily.
After Tang Shuangshuang drew randomly for a while, she began to ask Yan Jingshu for advice.
Yan Jingshu taught her various essentials carefully.
Tang Shuangshuang learned it right away. She exclaimed loudly with an exaggerated expression: "Teacher Yan is really good at teaching. No wonder he was able to help Xueli get a perfect score in physics in the college entrance examination."
Yan Jingshu said modestly: "You are smart and learn quickly."
Little Tang Sisi was very happy. She waved her two short arms, which were as thin as lotus roots, in the air as if she was dancing, and babbled something.
Xia Jinhua began to hum a little tune, an unknown melody, and Tang Yuanyuan followed along quietly.
"What song is this?" Tang Shuangshuang asked curiously.
Tang Yuanyuan said, "This is the lullaby that mom made up. She used to sing it to us when we were little. Don't you remember it?"
"I'm tone-deaf, and all the ditties sound the same."
Tang Shuangshuang remembered that her mother often hummed the song when she was a child, but she hasn't heard it for a long time.
"Sister, you are amazing. You still remember it after all this time."
Tang Yuanyuan smiled, said nothing, and continued to hum his little tune, with a rare look of relaxation and happiness on his face.
When the time came to get off the boat, they walked slowly towards the park entrance, admiring the flowers along the way.
"Let's go take a photo!" Tang Shuangshuang had only taken two photos. One was a black and white photo of her when she was a baby. The other was a photo for her health certificate. She looked silly, like a little fool.
She envied the color photos in the photo studio window.
Now that she has some money, she can afford to take photos, but before she was busy working in a restaurant and had no free time.
And it was useless for her to come alone, because she didn't actually want to take pictures by herself, but wanted to take pictures with her family.
Everyone is so close to each other, and it’s so beautiful to take it out and look at it after so many years!
"Do you want to take pictures?" Yan Jingshu was just about to take a few pictures of them, what a coincidence.
"Yes, there are people taking photos at the entrance of the park. I asked, and it's 50 cents a photo!"
Tang Shuangshuang said proudly: "He wanted 80 cents before, but I asked to take a few more photos and bargained down to 50 cents."
She went to ask specifically after she learned that Xueli had passed the exam and was thinking of taking a few photos of her before school started.
"I'll take pictures for you, for free." Yan Jingshu took out a Huaxia brand camera from his backpack.
Tang Shuangshuang's eyes widened. "Wow, is this your camera?"
"Yes, it's mine." Yan Jingshu said with a smile, "The film is new, you can take as many pictures as you want."
"Xiaoyan, that's not necessary." Xia Jinhua felt embarrassed. "This is what you use at work. It's not appropriate to take pictures of us."
"Appropriate." Yan Jingshu said respectfully: "Cameras are used to take pictures. There is no rule about what you have to take pictures of. I usually take pictures of the scenery, flowers and plants, and take pictures with friends."
Tang Xueli said, "Then let's shoot."
She would give him the money for the film and then treat him to a meal next time.
If she wanted to develop the film, she could take it to a photo studio.
I walked and took pictures all the way, and the clicking sounds continued.
Seeing Yan Jingshu actively taking pictures of them, Tang Yuanyuan walked up to them and said, "Take two pictures with Xueli, too."
Yan Jingshu's eyes lit up and he smiled, "Thank you, big sister."
Tang Yuanyuan: "I don't know how to use a camera, can you teach me?"
"Of course you can. This is a point-and-shoot camera. You don't need to adjust anything. It's not difficult." Yan Jingshu said gently, "Close one eye and use the other eye to look from here. You can see how the photo will look like. If there is no problem, just press the shutter and the photo will be taken."
Tang Yuanyuan nodded: "Yes, it's quite simple."
Yan Jingshu walked towards Tang Xueli with a smile.
Tang Xueli smiled at him, "You wanted to take a picture just now, right? You look so handsome in this outfit, it would be a shame if you didn't take a picture as a souvenir."
"Then why didn't you offer to take a photo for me?" He would have been happier if Tang Xueli had suggested it first.
"If you want to take pictures, just tell me." Tang Xueli said calmly, "You don't seem like the kind of person who gets embarrassed easily. Besides, this is your camera, so it's normal for you to take a few pictures."
"That's not what I meant..." Yan Jingshu paused, "You seem to have some opinion about me today?"
Tang Xueli said: "No, don't think too much about it."
Tang Yuanyuan had already adjusted the angle. "Stand still, I'm going to take the photo. Three, two, one!"
Click.
Neither of the two people in the camera smiled.
Tang Yuanyuan was a little nervous when taking photos for people for the first time, and she didn't even bother to ask them to smile more before pressing the shutter.
"Please stand next to the flower bed for a while, and I'll take another picture for you." Tang Yuanyuan savored the joy of taking pictures and felt a little unsatisfied.
As they walked toward the flower bed, Tang Xueli asked him, "You had an appointment at noon, right?"
"Yeah." Yan Jingshu nodded.
Tang Xueli tilted her head to look at him: "Is it a secret?"
"It's not a secret." Yan Jingshu smiled and said, "The president asked me to go on a blind date."
