"It's done filming, what do you guys think?"
Ma Lele said no problem, and asked Chen Bing and Shang Yunmiao if they wanted to take a picture too, saying she could help.
When Chen Bing heard that someone wanted to take her photos, her thoughts immediately went back to three years ago, to the day she took her elementary school graduation photos.
Three years have passed in the blink of an eye.
After silently reflecting on the situation and considering it tactfully, Chen Bing turned to look at the quiet Xiao Shang with a questioning and amused gaze.
Do you want to take a picture?
"Okay, sure~"
Seeing that Shang Yunmiao had agreed, Chen Bing handed the phone to Ma Lele, and then took Shang's hand to find a spot to pose.
During the conversation, he said to Xiao Shang, "By the way, about the love letter we agreed on yesterday, I wrote the beginning after I got home yesterday."
"Huh?" Shang Yunmiao was pleasantly surprised. She thought that after yesterday's little incident, her five little wishes were gone. She didn't expect Chen Bing to still remember them.
Just as Shang Yunmiao was wondering why Chen Bing brought this up, she heard the other party continue, "What I want to ask you is, do you have any requirements for the content of the love letter? I can add some content according to your requirements."
With Chen Bing's generous attitude, Shang Yunmiao felt too embarrassed to make any further requests. She simply looked up, smoothed her hair at her temples, and replied softly, "No, anything is fine."
"Oh, I see. I get it. A sense of surprise is the best, right?"
Xiao Shang wholeheartedly believed that whatever Chen Bing said was right. So he nodded repeatedly, agreeing with his statement.
At this moment, Chen Bing suddenly raised his hand to signal Ma Lele to wait a moment. Then, he reached out with both hands and took off the hair tie that Shang Yunmiao used to tie her low ponytail.
Her jet-black, smooth hair cascaded down like a waterfall, and Shang Yunmiao looked up curiously, wondering what Chen Bing was up to.
"I was thinking yesterday that it would be even better if you wore this outfit with pigtails."
Upon hearing this, Shang Yunmiao knew that Chen Bing wanted her to change her hairstyle, so she quickly took out another small hair tie from her pocket.
"Let me help you." Chen Bing took the hair tie from Xiao Shang's hand, went behind her, and began to tie her hair.
Seeing this, Shang Yunmiao didn't say anything more, but gave Ma Lele, who was waiting to take pictures, an apologetic smile, and the other party also generously returned the smile.
At this moment, Chen Bing, who was standing behind her, was still whispering to her.
"How about that? I didn't block your wish, isn't that great?"
"Mmm!" Along with these two "Mmm" sounds, the cute little head in front of me nodded twice.
After a slight smile, Chen Bing continued, "Then, to thank me for being so kind, don't refuse my little wish later. It's all to atone for your behavior yesterday."
Shang Yunmiao was a little surprised by the sudden little wish, because Chen Bing had told her yesterday that he would make the request before the high school entrance exam. So, she thought that Chen Bing wouldn't make the wish anytime soon, but she didn't expect it to come so early.
"What is your wish?"
A soft, sweet voice reached Chen Bing's ears, just as the pigtails in his hands were finally tied up.
The pigtails he tied for Xiao Shang weren't the tight, stiff kind.
Instead, her hair was loose and even looked a bit messy. However, Xiao Shang's hair was naturally a little curly, so it gave her a rather lazy and cute look.
Especially since the little girl was already quite petite, all these factors combined made Chen Bing increasingly satisfied with his work.
"It's not a big wish. Do you remember the photos we took three years ago when we graduated from elementary school? I'd like to ask you to take photos in the same poses you did back then."
What was the posture at that time?
Shang Yunmiao recalled for a moment and quickly remembered that her posture at the time seemed to be that she stood on tiptoe to kiss Chen Bing.
So, should I replicate that? Especially in front of Ma Lele!?
Shang Yunmiao felt a little shy, but it was much easier than it had been three years ago.
As she hesitated shyly, Chen Bing put his arm around her shoulder and leaned down to make it easier for her to kiss him.
After completing all this, Chen Bing called out to Ma Lele, who was not far away, "We can begin now."
Okay~
After the other party responded, they raised their phone to take a picture.
Unlike cameras from three years ago, mobile phones are unlikely to make mistakes.
So... once should be enough.
After all, it was Chen Bing's wish, and he couldn't refuse.
Looking at Chen Bing's face so close to hers, Shang Yunmiao stamped her foot in frustration, gritted her teeth, and, as if Ma Lele didn't exist, closed her eyes and boldly kissed her.
One second, two seconds, about five seconds later, Shang Yunmiao shyly released Chen Bing's cheek and opened her eyes.
She first glanced at Chen Bing's mischievous grin, then tugged at his clothes with her hidden hand, signaling him to take her away quickly.
Chen Bing didn't move, but just looked at her with a mischievous smile. When Shang Yunmiao sensed that the atmosphere around her was a bit off, she looked up at the photographer Ma Lele and saw that the other woman was just as shy as she was.
A moment later, photographer Ma Lele asked very cautiously, "Um... are you not in the right pose yet...?"
!?
Shang Yunmiao: (*゜ー゜*)
[Didn't you take a picture?]
Ma Lele: ⊙﹏⊙∥
Weren't you just kissing Chen Bing?
After a brief exchange of glances, the naive and innocent Ma Lele finally understood. So all that fuss they were up to was taking a kissing photo! She had thought Shang Yunmiao had just suddenly wanted to get close to Chen Bing, and she had even deliberately stopped herself from pressing the button, waiting for Shang Yunmiao to finish the kiss.
After the misunderstanding was cleared up, Ma Lele said in a tone that was three parts apologetic, three parts shy, and four parts feigned composure, "No, I'm sorry, I forgot just now, please do it again."
As the saying goes, practice makes perfect. With experience, Shang Yunmiao overcame her shyness and quickly and without any surprises ended the battle.
However, looking at Chen Bing's smug smile, she felt that she had probably been tricked by Chen Bing again.
Recalling the things she had done in elementary school that weren't just her initiative, she cleverly said to Chen Bing, "Five, one of the five requests, Chen Bing, you kiss me once too."
After saying that, she waved to Ma Lele and asked her to take another picture.
Seeing the little girl waving, Chen Bing couldn't help but think how clever she had become. With just a little hint, without even needing to teach her, the little girl would come to him willingly to eat.
He first mentioned five wishes, then brought up the time they took a picture together on the cheek in elementary school. After this series of hints, he used yesterday's request as a starting point, which unsurprisingly made Xiao Shang realize that she could also use a wish to ask Chen Bing to kiss her.
This process not only fulfills one of the other person's wishes but also continues the photo-taking tradition that has been passed down since elementary school, truly killing two birds with one stone.
