Chapter 5 The protagonist suffers
After running to the shore, Li Yuqing excitedly stepped on the soft sand. The waves in front of him were rising very fast. Due to his lack of experience, Li Yuqing's shoes were wet by the sea water without paying attention.
But he didn't care much. He came to the beach today just to have fun, so it didn't matter if he got wet.
Since you're wet, that's perfect. You can just go barefoot to the beach and play for a while.
Do whatever you think of. This is the life attitude that Li Yuqing has adhered to over the years. Otherwise, given his poor living environment, he would have been suffocated to death long ago.
So he bent down to take off his sneakers, turned around and looked, found a good spot, then put his shoes on the higher sand beside him, and then went back to tread water.
The touch of sea water feels particularly cool through the skin, icy and cool, making people feel very comfortable.
In the sunshine, at a glance, you can see the sparkling blue sea, the golden beach, the white shells, and the people laughing and playing.
The rocks on the shore are hit by the waves, the seagulls are flying freely in the sky, the white doves are resting on the lighthouse in the distance, the blue sky and white clouds, everything is beautiful.
Li Yuqing enjoyed this scene very much. He stepped around in the shallow water by himself. Sometimes he would bend down to scoop up the clear sea water and splash it forward. He was extremely happy.
In addition to stepping in the sea water, he would also run around and, like other children, build sand pots with wet sand and write and draw with his fingers on the beach, full of playfulness.
Tired of playing on the beach, he walked to the shore and started playing with the waves.
Tired from playing in the water, he felt a little exhausted and thirsty, so he put on his dry shoes and went to the faucet to wash his hands.
There were many vendors selling things here, so Li Yuqing bought three grilled sausages to fill his stomach. Then he went to a nearby store and bought two coconuts, the kind you can cut open and drink directly from with a straw.
After buying them, he held one in each hand and walked steadily to the free beach chairs over there, then found an empty seat and sat down.
Li Yuqing thought that the most comfortable situation at the beach was probably like this: drinking coconut juice, lying on a beach chair, resting and watching others play.
After drinking a coconut water, he lay on the beach chair for a while, feeling the comfortable and cool sea breeze and slowly relaxing himself.
The sea water rose and fell, one wave after another hit the reef, accompanied by laughter on the distant beach, sleepiness slowly swept over, Li Yuqing closed his eyes and fell asleep.
“Crack!”
“Crack!”
“Crack!”
One after another, vibrant photos were captured by the camera: sunshine, sea water, blue sky, white clouds, beach, lounge chairs, coconuts, and the handsome boy in the center of the picture.
He slept on the beach chair for a long time before he woke up. As soon as he opened his eyes, he took out his cell phone from his pocket and looked at the time. It showed 3:30 in the afternoon.
Has it been that long?
He went out this morning and came here, and has been playing for so long, it's time for him to go back now.
“Hello!”
Before he could make the next move, a clear and crisp male voice came to his ears. Li Yuqing came back to his senses and looked up.
A fair and handsome boy stood in front of her, wearing a white shirt and casual pants. He smiled sweetly and held a black camera in his hand.
Seeing that Li Yuqing finally noticed him, the boy in front of him waved at him enthusiastically and smiled even sweeter.
Li Yuqing looked at him carefully and confirmed that he did not know this boy, but he was not sure whether the original owner of the novel "Daily Marriage of Rich Omegas" written by his deskmate knew this person.
To be on the safe side, don't act rashly and it's best for him to talk less.
Looking into the eyes of the boy in front of him, he asked politely, "Well, what's wrong?"
"Hello, this is what I mean. My name is Lin Mu, and I'm an amateur photographer. I just took a few photos of you. I took them without your consent, so I'm sorry."
"I came to this beach today to take some photos, but after seeing you, I felt that you were full of vitality, so I couldn't help but take some photos of you. I really didn't mean any harm."
"You can take a look at it. If you like it, I can send it to you. If you don't like it or find it particularly offensive, I will delete it immediately."
While Lin Mu was explaining, he fiddled with his black camera, pulled out all the photos he had just taken, and showed them to Li Yuqing.
Isn’t this the protagonist of “Daily Marriage of Rich Omegas”?
Hearing his self-introduction, Li Yuqing was startled and sat up suddenly, turning his gaze to the fair and handsome boy in front of him.
Is it such a coincidence that he ran into the protagonist of the book so soon?
After asking the question, Li Yuqing remained silent. Apart from sitting up from the beach chair, he did not make any other unnecessary movements. However, his surprised look revealed his inner unrest.
"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Lin Mu asked.
As if he had noticed something was wrong with Li Yuqing, Lin Mu also quieted down and stopped talking. He stopped waving his camera and tilted his head to look at the person in front of him.
That means, do you know me?
Oh no, the protagonist is starting to suspect me. That means Lin Mu doesn’t know the original owner. Today is their first meeting, so there’s no need to worry too much.
Li Yuqing suppressed his surprise, smiled, shook his head, and said, "Hello, my name is Li Yuqing. I just fell asleep, so I wasn't very clear-headed and didn't hear what you said clearly. Can you say it again?"
Lin Mu is a very enthusiastic person. He took a photo of this boy today because he looked good and had a strong vitality, which caught his eye.
When he heard Li Yuqing say this, he nodded involuntarily and obediently repeated what he had just said.
Li Yuqing then realized that the protagonist had secretly taken some photos of him, and now came to greet him because he wanted to show him the finished products, and more importantly, to get his consent for his portrait.
He didn't mind other people taking pictures of him. On the contrary, he had never taken pictures outside, whether it was a selfie or taken by himself, so when he heard that Lin Mu took a few pictures of him, he was quite looking forward to it.
Li Yuqing curled his eyes and said with a smile, "Sure, it's okay, I don't mind that much. Can I see the photos you took of me now?"
When Lin Mu heard this, he was very happy. He handed the camera to him and carefully explained to him how to adjust the photos.
The equipment of this camera is very advanced. Each photo is frozen in it with clear texture. The scene of the seaside is full of vitality, which makes people feel relaxed and happy at first sight.
One photo shows Li Yuqing running towards the sea, one shows Li Yuqing smiling while holding the sea water, one shows him walking on the beach holding a coconut, and one shows Li Yuqing lying on a beach chair drinking coconut juice, looking relaxed and comfortable.
One after another, Lin Mu took pictures of many scenes of him playing here, even the scene of him squatting on the ground alone to build a clay pot.
After seeing these clear and beautiful photos, Li Yuqing was stunned for a moment. He looked up at Lin Mu himself and wondered where he was hiding at the time and why he didn't notice that he was taking pictures of me just now.
Little did he know that with the cheerful and playful look he showed when he came to the beach today, there was no way he would notice other people.
