Chapter 353: Wedding photo controversy, jealousy again
Lance was very efficient and the final design of the wedding dress came out soon.
It was a work that perfectly combined all of Xiao Xuezhen's requirements with Lance's professional aesthetics. It had both French elegance and romance, and a girl's sweetness and agility. Every detail was exquisite to the extreme.
The moment Shi Runrun saw the design draft, she could already imagine how she would look like wearing it, and her heart was full of anticipation.
The wedding dress entered the intense customization stage, and another important thing was also put on Xiao Xue Zheng's agenda - taking wedding photos.
Shi Runrun originally thought that he would choose to go to a beautiful island or an exotic European castle.
But the man waved his hand and directly rejected all suggestions of going out for filming.
"No, flying is too tiring. It's not good for you or the baby." His reasons are always so practical and irrefutable.
"Then shall we shoot in Beijing?" Shi Runrun asked tentatively.
"There are too many people in Beijing and I don't like being watched by so many people." President Xiao's mysophobia and possessiveness began to take effect again.
Shi Runrun was somewhat helpless: "Then where do you want to shoot? You can't just not shoot, right?"
"Who said we won't film it?" The man raised his eyebrows, as if it was a matter of course. "We'll film it at our house."
Shi Runrun was stunned: "Our family?"
"Is our yard not big enough? Or is the scenery not good enough?" the man asked.
Shi Runrun thought about their back garden, which was as big as a park, with lawns, lakes, sea of flowers, and even a small pavilion... It seemed that it was indeed enough.
Thus, the location for taking wedding photos was arbitrarily decided by President Xiao.
Not only did he book a location, he also invited the country's top photography and styling teams to his home.
On the day of filming, the entire Xiao family villa was as bustling as a movie set.
Various professional photographic equipment were moved into the back garden, and dozens of staff members were busy setting up the scene and adjusting the lights.
Shi Runrun sat in the dressing room, letting several stylists work around her.
After putting on her makeup and changing into her first dress for the shoot, she looked at herself in the mirror, who looked radiant and seemingly unreal, and felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.
"Madam, you are the most beautiful bride I have ever seen." The chief stylist praised sincerely.
Shi Runrun smiled embarrassedly.
When she walked out of the dressing room, she saw Xiao Xuezheng had changed his clothes and was waiting outside.
He was wearing a pure white suit today, which made him look even taller and more handsome. He was less cold and sharp than usual, and more gentle and elegant like the prince charming in a fairy tale.
When he saw Shi Runrun coming out, his eyes lit up instantly. Her current appearance was clearly reflected in his deep black eyes, filled with amazement and love.
He walked up to her with his long legs, took her hand naturally, lowered his head, and placed a restrained kiss on her lips.
"It's beautiful." He praised sincerely, with a barely perceptible hoarseness in his voice.
Shi Runrun's face turned red when he looked at her, and her heartbeat started to get out of control again.
The two walked hand in hand into the shooting area in the back garden.
The photographer in charge of this shoot is a well-known domestic fashion photographer named Leo, a young-looking man with long, slightly curly hair and full of artistic atmosphere.
"Mr. Xiao, Madam, hello." Leo greeted them with a smile when he saw them. His peach blossom eyes lit up when he saw Shi Runrun. "Madam, you are so beautiful today. I guarantee that the photos we take today will astound everyone."
As he spoke, he naturally reached out his hand to help Shi Runrun straighten out a wrinkle on her skirt.
But before his hand touched the skirt, it was stopped by a large, bony hand.
"No need." Xiao Xue Zheng's voice was as cold as ice. He stood in front of Shi Runrun with an expressionless face, protecting her completely behind him. His black eyes looked at Leo solemnly, full of warning.
Leo's movements froze, and the smile on his face began to fade.
He withdrew his hand awkwardly, cleared his throat, and began to instruct the two of them on how to pose.
"Okay, Mr. Xiao, Madam, let's start with the first set of photos. Mr. Xiao, please gently put your arms around Madam's waist from behind. Madam, you can lean your head slightly on Mr. Xiao's shoulder, with a happy smile on your face..."
Shi Runrun tried hard to adjust her posture according to his request.
But the man behind her was as stiff as a rock, and the hands around her waist were so strong that they seemed to strangle her.
"Mr. Xiao, relax a little and be more natural." Leo reminded behind the camera.
Instead of relaxing, Xiao Xue Zheng hugged her even tighter, and his handsome face became even more tense.
"Madam, your smile can be sweeter. Imagine your happiest moment."
Shi Runrun tried hard to laugh, but she was affected by the "low pressure generator" behind her and couldn't laugh at all.
Leo felt helpless and had to put down his camera and go forward himself to guide their movements.
"Mr. Xiao, you can place your hand gently on your wife's belly. Yes, that's it... Madam, you can raise your chin a little bit higher..." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to help Shi Runrun adjust the angle of her chin.
"Don't touch her!"
A cold yet furious voice instantly resounded throughout the garden.
Xiao Xue Zheng waved Leo's hand away, his eyes burning with rage, as if Leo was some unforgivable scoundrel.
The entire filming scene fell silent in an instant.
All the staff members were so frightened that they dared not breathe. They lowered their heads and tried hard to reduce their presence.
Leo was also startled by his sudden anger, and his face turned pale and blue.
"Mr. Xiao...Mr. Xiao, I just wanted to help my wife adjust her posture, I didn't mean anything else..." He explained stutteringly.
"Her posture doesn't need you to adjust it." Xiao Xuezheng interrupted him coldly, then turned his head and ordered Qin Feng, "Replace him for me."
"Ah?" Qin Feng was stunned.
This is the top photographer in the country, and his schedule is booked until next year. How can you change it now?
"Sir, Mr. Leo is the best photographer in the country. If we look for someone else at the last minute, I'm afraid..."
"I say, change it." There was no room for negotiation in Xiao Xue Zheng's tone.
Shi Runrun felt like her head was about to explode.
She quickly grabbed Xiao Xuezheng's arm and whispered, "Xiao Xuezheng, don't be like this. I'm just working..."
"You can touch my woman at will just because of work?" The man turned his head and looked at her, the possessiveness and jealousy in his eyes almost overflowing.
Shi Runrun completely lost her temper.
She knew that if she let this jealous girl work with another man, there would definitely be problems.
Seeing that the atmosphere at the scene was becoming increasingly tense and Leo's expression was becoming increasingly ugly, Shi Runrun had to step forward to smooth things over.
She gave Leo an apologetic smile: "Teacher Leo, I'm sorry, he...he was just too nervous about me. How about this, you take a break first, I'll talk to him."
Then, without saying anything, she pulled the sulking man to the corner of the garden.
"Xiao Xuezheng! What on earth do you want to do?" She lowered her voice, anxious and angry. "He's a professional photographer, isn't it normal for him to adjust his pose? Why are you so angry?"
"Normal? Which man would touch someone else's wife casually?" The man still looked unhappy.
"Then what else can we do? Should we stop filming?"
"Who said not to take pictures?" The man raised his eyebrows, and then said something that shocked Shi Runrun beyond words.
"I'll take the photo."
"You?" Shi Runrun's eyes were as big as copper bells.
"What's wrong with me?" The man said matter-of-factly, "Isn't it just pressing the shutter button? What's so difficult about that?"
As he spoke, he didn't care about Shi Runrun's reaction and walked straight back to the shooting area. He took the extremely heavy and professional-looking camera from the stunned Leo.
He raised the camera to his eyes in a serious manner and began to give orders to Shi Runrun.
"Stand still and look at me."
"Smile, but don't smile at anyone else. Smile only at me."
"Put your hand on your belly, yes, just like that, let everyone know that you are pregnant with my child."
…
For the entire afternoon, President Xiao personally acted as his own wedding photographer.
He complained that the lighting was not good enough and asked the lighting technician to adjust the angle.
Then he complained that the background was too messy and asked the staff to move away a pot of flowers that he found annoying.
He directed everyone at the scene, leaving the poor professional photographer Leo aside, and had a great time himself.
Shi Runrun looked at his domineering and childish appearance. From helplessness at the beginning, to the end, she was gradually amused by him.
She no longer thought about professional postures and expressions, but just looked at him, watched him busying around for her, looked at his eyes that always followed her, and smiled the brightest and happiest smile from the bottom of her heart.
And that clumsy photographer also accurately captured every touching moment of hers.
In the evening, the shooting ended.
That night, Qin Feng sent the repaired film over.
Shi Runrun was stunned when she saw the photos on the computer screen.
In the photo, she is smiling with her eyes curved and her happiness seems to overflow the screen.
Although his expression in the photo was still a little stiff, the look in his eyes when he looked at her was so gentle that it could make water drip out of it.
Every photo is filled with deep love and warmth.
"How is it? My photography is no worse than that of Leo, right?" The man next to him came over with a smug look on his face and asked for praise.
Shi Runrun turned her head, looked at his cocky look, smiled, and gave him a big kiss on the cheek.
"Well, you're the best photographer in the world."
Just because, in your lens, there is me.
And in my eyes, there is only you.
