Chapter 23 What should couples do? The first time I openly hugged her...
The photo area was decorated romantically and exquisitely, with a giant tree full of pink peach blossoms in the background, the petals falling in the wind.
It has a very fantasy/martial arts drama atmosphere.
The photographer was a young man, a total E-type, who enthusiastically greeted us: "Couple photos are supposed to be a bit intimate, right? There was a couple who just kissed right now, and the effect was amazing. Don't be shy, just be natural!"
Sang Li then realized how difficult it was.
How can you be so open and generous?
Do you kiss your guardian?
Sang Li rubbed her earlobes; they were terribly hot.
If I really do this, won't Lu Jin have a problem with me?
Will I feel like I'm taking advantage of him?
Do you feel dirty because you're a virgin?
Place...
Um……
Sang Li looked up and found Lu Jin smiling at her again.
Sang Li: !
Dude, you got into character so fast!
As expected of the captain!
They are flexible and adaptable, and they will always accomplish their mission.
Lu Jin lowered his head slightly, his voice lingering warmly on her earlobe: "Want to try?"
Sang Li shuddered.
Nonsense.
“You’re retaliating!” Sang Li protested in a low voice.
Lu Jin said innocently, "It was you who suggested it."
"..."
Lu Jin: "Scared?"
Sang Li looked like a taunting kitten, glaring at him fiercely.
The photographer chuckled, "Don't be shy, shyness will ruin the photos. How about you two try leaning together, or the guy hugging the girl from behind?"
Sang Li thought this was not bad, and racked her brains to come up with a few positions.
It will be very cute.
Sang Li snuggled into Lu Jin's arms.
Lu Jin looked down at her; her small body was completely leaning against his arm, and the warm touch was transmitted through the fabric.
His heart pounded, and his hand naturally wrapped around her shoulder, but he still couldn't hide the stiffness in his muscles.
"Hey, put your hands down there and put your arms around her waist. You two just got together, right? You're still a little awkward. Smile, yes, yes, that looks great!" the photographer instructed.
Lu Jin's eyes darkened.
Is this a good idea?
Actually, it's not so bad.
Wasn't that what she asked for?
Sang Li didn't refuse, and said generously, "Come on."
Lu Jin's chest trembled, and his hand seemed to move to her waist as if it were not under his control.
The first time I hugged her openly, I could even feel her slightly rising and falling breaths.
She's too soft.
And it's so hot.
It felt like it was about to melt in my chest.
It turns into peach-flavored cream.
Lu Jin felt as if something was blocking his throat, and he subconsciously tightened his arms, pulling her even closer to him.
He bent down slightly, as if to bury his head in her shoulder and neck.
The distance between the two was just right, subtly ambiguous.
Lu Jin's stray hairs brushed against Sang Li's earlobe, and Sang Li trembled, like a startled little animal.
Lu Jin: "What?"
Sang Li smiled and shook her head.
"Smile even sweeter!" the photographer instructed from the sidelines. "Yes, yes, that's it, perfect!"
Sang Li obediently flashed a smile brighter than any flower, and pressed her neck against Lu Jin's lips, causing Lu Jin to feel his breath catch in his throat for a moment.
All I could hear was the sound of a camera shutter.
Click-clack.
The photo session is over.
Sang Li released Lu Jin, turned around quickly to look at the photo, completely unaware of his unusual behavior.
Lu Jin stood still, his gaze following her back, tracing the curves of her waist.
The fragrance lingered on my hands.
The salesperson, holding up several printed photos, smiled and introduced, "We also have keychains with group photos. You can choose your photos to have them made; it's more meaningful to have one for each person!"
Sang Li was about to say no, but Lu Jin spoke first: "Two."
Sang Li: ?
The salesperson handed over two custom-made keychains, and Sang Li was surprised: "You actually like these too?"
Lu Jin lowered his head and put the keychain into his pocket: "It's the first time I've been taken advantage of, so of course it's worth commemorating."
Sang Li raised an eyebrow.
What can you get for free?
Are you going to be taken advantage of and become a couple?
This statement should be interpreted in response to Sang Li's frequent requests for "more money".
"..."
Hmph, men are so petty!
As Sang Li skipped and hopped towards the parking lot, the keychain pendant in her hand jingling.
Lu Jin followed behind, his hand in his pocket rubbing the couple's pendant.
He couldn't stop smiling.
This feeling was unprecedented and made my heart flutter.
Sang Li was about to ask where to eat and what to have for dinner when she suddenly stopped and turned around.
Lu Jin stopped almost at the same moment, turning his head slightly to look behind him.
Their gazes both fell on what was behind them.
Something's not right.
It was a professional intuition from the Administration Bureau.
For a moment, it seemed as if the air had been suddenly sucked out, becoming oppressive and stifling, making it hard to breathe.
Even though the surroundings were still bustling and noisy, Sang Li felt a strange quietness enveloping her senses, like a thick curtain separating her from reality.
Someone is watching her.
His gaze swept across the bustling crowd.
The area in front of the exhibition hall was still bustling with activity, as tourists laughed and took photos, couples chatted intimately, and staff members busily gave directions.
Everything looked the same as before, but...
Something's not right.
Sang Li's fingertips felt slightly cool. She subconsciously reached out and grabbed Lu Jin's sleeve, whispering, "Don't you feel..."
"Hmm." Lu Jin interrupted her, deliberately lowering his voice so that no one else could hear.
Sang Li bit her lip, trying to suppress the strange feeling in her heart, and continued to observe her surroundings.
The moment she and Guang glanced behind them, their bodies stiffened for a split second.
The people around them... froze for a second, as if they had been put on pause.
They all put down what they were doing and looked at her in unison.
But when I looked over, those people weren't looking at me; they were still doing their own thing.
Is it just my imagination?
No, it feels like...
I'm being followed.
They've been targeted.
Abnormal entity.
It looks like it's about to devour itself.
Sang Li took a deep breath; her palms were already sweating.
The enemy is in the shadows.
She instinctively moved closer to Lu Jin: "Something's wrong."
Lu Jin suddenly grabbed her hand, his gaze sweeping around the room: "Don't look around, let's go."
It's abnormal.
However, without any unusual records, he cannot confront them head-on.
Moreover, Sang Li was by his side; to the abnormal, she was like a walking strawberry cake.
Sang Li turned around and quickened her pace.
Don't look back.
"Um."
With each step she took, she couldn't help but want to turn back, but she couldn't.
Once you turn around, you will "see" things you shouldn't see.
They will be dragged into the abyss.
Sang Li didn't notice that in a corner not far behind them stood a young man dressed in 18th-century retro clothing. He wore a well-tailored long tailcoat, his shoulders were straight, his gloves were white, and his feet were wearing exquisitely crafted leather shoes.
The man's tall top hat was pulled down slightly, obscuring his brow bone.
In the shadows, his face was deathly pale, devoid of any color, with a strange smile playing on his lips.
It's all that damn ice cream's fault for preventing me from catching the prey I wanted.
A note from the author:
I haven't been feeling well lately, I've been lacking energy.
I estimate I'll be able to update my status regularly in about two weeks.
(Just look at all the books I've completed, and you'll know I won't abandon them.)
And you need to reserve some drafts~
