Looking at the composed bespectacled girl in front of him, Zhou Chu found it hard to connect her with "Chitanda," who secretly photographed Gao Qinyi and posted the photos on the confession wall.
There was absolutely no need for Li Qiuran to investigate; she actually took the initiative to approach him.
I was just tired from writing and came to the cafeteria for a meal, so how did I end up being targeted?
You clearly filmed Gao Qinyi. Even if you want to apologize, you should go to her directly. What's the point of coming to me?
Zhou Chu sighed. It seemed the cafeteria really wasn't his promised land. He'd just have to order takeout from now on.
"Let me introduce myself first. I'm Gu Man, a freshman in the School of Humanities. The beautiful girl who had dinner with you yesterday is the one I photographed." The girl with glasses raised her middle finger to adjust the bridge of her glasses, while holding the camera in her other hand.
"Wait a moment." Zhou Chu took out his phone to send a message to Gao Qinyi.
But the girl with glasses stopped her immediately: "Listen to me first."
"I think you should talk to her," Zhou Chu said, pointing to his phone. "You probably know she's looking for you, right?"
"Really?" The girl with glasses' face lit up with surprise. "Does she also think my photos are great?"
Zhou Chu looked completely bewildered.
She seemed not to understand the situation, let alone why Gao Qinyi wanted to find her.
Gao Qinyi was clearly angry that her photos had been stolen by her, but she seemed completely unaware of her own actions.
Seeing the anticipation on her face, Zhou Chu understood her thoughts.
Are you in the photography club?
"No." Gu Man shook her head: "I'm in the portrait photography club, but there are too few members. The school wants us to disband our club and join the photography club. But as long as we win an award in this college student photography competition, the school won't interfere!"
Do you enjoy having your portrait taken?
“Of course!” Gu Man, who had been somewhat listless, instantly became excited when the topic of photography came up: “Don’t you think the harmony and fusion of light and color is particularly beautiful and magical? Especially when all of these come together on one person, it feels like she is a radiant fairy!”
Zhou Chu nodded politely.
In a way, she and I are practically colleagues, both documenting the beauty of life, just using different tools.
"What's your name?" Gu Man asked, tilting her head.
“Foreign Languages College, your year, Zhou Chu.” To avoid dampening her enthusiasm, Zhou Chu nodded and praised, “You did take some good photos. But that’s just my opinion. Sister Qin doesn’t think so; she really dislikes people taking photos of her without her permission.”
"Ah..." Gu Man scratched her head, looking somewhat troubled: "It was a perfect moment."
"Being perfect is one thing, but she doesn't like being photographed without her permission is another."
"Could you introduce me to someone? I want to apologize to her and become her personal photographer! The kind that takes boudoir photos."
It has to be said that the boudoir photos are quite tempting.
Seeing that the girl in front of him didn't seem to have any ill intentions.
Why not just push her onto Gao Qinyi? That way, Gao Qinyi will be bothered by her, and you can extricate yourself.
Okay, let's do it that way.
“An introduction is possible,” Zhou Chu nodded. “But Sister Qin has a rather difficult personality, so I suggest you tone it down a bit.”
"No problem!" Gu Man said, her face beaming with joy.
She's a pretty, fair-skinned girl, but her heavy, thick-rimmed glasses definitely lower her overall look.
"Wait a moment, I'll ask her if she has time." Zhou Chu said as he notified Gao Qinyi.
[Chu Kuangren: Sister Qin, the person who secretly filmed you has been found]
[Girl with a piano: Where are you? Do you need me to bring a few people over?]
[Chu Kuangren: The cafeteria... But this matter is a bit complicated; the other party is a junior who is obsessed with photography.]
[Girl with a harp: So what? You wouldn't happen to...]
[Chu Kuangren: That's definitely not the case. The situation is quite complicated. Anyway, you can talk to her yourself when you get here.]
[Girl: Five Minutes]
"Okay." Zhou Chu looked up, only to find that Gu Man's head had somehow appeared over, seemingly peeking at their chat history.
When their eyes met at close range, Gu Man immediately retreated to her chair and opened QQ: "Scan me."
Why did I add her?
Although Zhou Chu subconsciously took out his phone, he did not unlock it.
As a mature writer, one should have the courage to reject friend requests from anyone with ill intentions.
Based on his understanding of Gu Man, he thought she was a rather naive young girl, and if he offended her, he might ruin his reputation in his later years.
So he silently put his phone away, nodded, smiled, and shook his head.
Gu Man pouted: "I was originally going to send you some of my selected photography works as a thank you, but since you don't want them, that's fine."
"Then let's forget about it."
"By the way, I have a question. Are you and your sister Qin actually a couple?"
Zhou Chu did not want to answer such gossipy questions.
He had already seen Gao Qinyi rushing in from the cafeteria entrance, and stood up to wave.
She walked up to him in a flurry of activity.
"Is that her?"
After Zhou Chu nodded in confirmation, Gao Qinyi sat down aggressively.
"Senior! You're even more beautiful than the last time I saw you!" Gu Man's eyes lit up.
This left Gao Qinyi speechless.
I was praised as soon as we met, and the girl opposite me seemed to be a well-behaved junior.
How could she be angry? If she were to get angry, wouldn't she become the kind of shrew who is unreasonable and unforgiving?
Wait, no, I'm clearly the victim, so why am I acting like the perpetrator now?
Why did you steal my photos last time?
"Because the senior student is really super beautiful! As a photographer, it's hard for me to miss such a good picture."
"But this is unauthorized filming."
"Senior, I'm sorry." Gu Man bit her lip, seemingly having made a huge decision. "Senior, I hope you can be my model! Senior, how about I treat you to dinner?"
A sense of powerlessness welled up in Gao Qinyi's heart.
It felt like I was fighting with cotton.
"Did you hear what Sister Qin said?" Zhou Chu scolded Gu Man with a serious expression.
Gu Man understood what he meant, and lowered her head with a pitiful look on her face: "I know, but I really want my senior to be my model..."
