Chapter 59 Take more photos, I'll send them to you on WeChat Moments when I get back...
In winter, there are many skiers, and most hotels at the foot of the mountain are fully booked. It's only because five-star hotels are expensive that Meng Yanxi booked suites, which allowed him to do whatever he wanted.
"How can you be so extravagant?"
Lawyer Luo always travels light, putting down his suitcase and knocking on Meng Yanxi's door first.
Meng Yanxi was about to change her clothes, her shirt button half-undone. Thinking it was Jin Zhao, she immediately went to open the door, a smile playing on her lips.
Upon seeing Luo Heng's annoying face, the smile on his lips froze instantly.
In the following minutes, Attorney Luo, having gotten the better deal, acted innocent, crossing her arms and making tsk-tsk noises behind him, putting on a sanctimonious act.
"This is a suite, and I didn't ask you to share a room with me, so what's there to complain about?"
"There's only enough room for one bed, yet you insisted on booking four suites. Didn't you ever think about giving up the rooms to people who need them?"
"I'm really curious, Meng Yanxi, do you know how the gap between the rich and the poor came about?"
Out of humanitarian spirit, Meng Yanxi resisted the urge to kick him out.
Luo Heng is, after all, a human being, not a cell phone.
"I'm curious too, how can someone be so clueless?" Meng Yanxi came out in her ski suit and sneered, "I came out skiing with my girlfriend, what's it to you?"
Meng Yanxi not only had good judgment, but also knew how to speak without thinking, glancing sideways at me: "If I were you, I wouldn't have come at all today."
Just a moment ago, Lawyer Luo, who was standing on the moral high ground, was stunned for a moment. After a couple of seconds of processing, he exclaimed, "Holy crap! No way, Jin Zhao is really with you?"
Meng Yanxi laughed in exasperation: "Jin Zhao and I are a match made in heaven, a perfect couple. It was only natural for us to be together, and we are destined to be lovers. What are you so shocked about?"
Luo Heng: "..."
They were probably shocked by how cultured President Meng was, managing to use four idioms in just one sentence.
If there were an idiom competition, he would vote for President Meng.
Lawyer Luo rubbed his nose and chuckled awkwardly, "Sorry, brother, I just hadn't heard. I thought you were still in that ambiguous, unrequited relationship and needed me to create the right atmosphere for you."
Meng Yanxi curled her lips and reminded her, "Didn't I post it on my WeChat Moments? November 19th, 1119, may our love last forever."
Luo Heng: "..."
Well, Mr. Meng not only knows how to use idioms, he can also create new ones.
Meng Yanxi: "Didn't I already say that was my girlfriend's skirt? Girlfriend, do you know what that means? Oh right, judging from your appearance, finding a partner is quite difficult. It's your blessing that you don't understand."
Luo Heng was completely paralyzed by his poison, and only because of the vast difference in their fighting abilities did he refrain from rashly attacking him.
But when Lawyer Luo's murderous intent rose, his verbal attacks were quite sharp: "Meng Yanxi, don't you know how much you love peacocks displaying their feathers and it's all wishful thinking on your part? You just posted one post on your Moments, and there wasn't even a picture of anyone, just a piece of cloth. Oh right, and your hands that you think are absolutely gorgeous. Who knows if you're showing off the cloth or your hands? And your girlfriend? I haven't seen your girlfriend posting on Moments with you."
Meng Yanxi: "..."
Over the years, Meng Yanxi's sharp tongue has proven its destructive power; he's usually the one hurting others, while he himself is never injured, except for today.
He was actually injured by Luo Heng.
He paused for a second, then picked up his last weapon and stubbornly resisted: "My girlfriend liked my post."
Luo Heng: "I liked your post too, so am I your girlfriend too?"
This mutual killing ended with Luo Heng being kicked out hard by Meng Yanxi.
Luo Heng cursed Meng Gou from outside the door.
Meng Yanxi: They're all dogs now, what's the point of talking about humanitarianism?

Jin Zhao finished changing into her snowsuit, but Si Tian still hadn't come out. On the sofa in the lobby, Meng Yanxi and Luo Heng had already changed and were sitting far apart, each looking down at their phones.
Jin Zhao, with a mix of sensitivity and skepticism, noticed that her boyfriend wasn't in a good mood and suspected it was because he had argued with Luo Heng.
As soon as she stepped off the elevator, Meng Yanxi looked up at her.
His girlfriend was fair-skinned and soft, and her oversized snowsuit, with its taro purple and creamy white color scheme, made her look like a soft, sweet glutinous rice ball. He felt a little tempted to take a bite.
He remained seated and reached out his hand to her.
Jin Zhao walked over on his own initiative.
The hotel had air conditioning on, and the temperature was at least 27 or 28 degrees Celsius. Jin Zhao felt a bit hot, and his snowsuit wasn't pulled up all the way.
Meng Yanxi stared at her chest, where the zipper was open, revealing a milky white thermal undershirt.
Noticing that Luo Heng was looking over from a distance, she didn't know why she felt so guilty, but she felt it wasn't good to be so affectionate in front of others. He stretched out his hand to her, but she didn't take it. Instead, she stood in front of him and explained in a very serious tone, "It's hot here, let's go outside and then put it on."
Meng Yanxi glanced at her empty hand, said nothing, and stood up as she withdrew her hand.
There was a 20-centimeter height difference between them. As soon as he stood up, he exuded a sense of oppression, and even his gaze towards her seemed to instantly become domineering.
“We’re going out now, let’s get on board,” he said.
Jin Zhao thought it was fine, and just as she lowered her head, the man's slender fingers beat her to it. One hand pulled at the hem of her clothes, while the other hand pinched the zipper.
"Sizzle—"
This is the snowsuit that Meng Yanxi prepared. Jin Zhao doesn't know much about sports brands, but he thinks the quality is very good. The zipper is very smooth and even the sound is very clean.
Pull it all the way down.
The neckline of the snowsuit could cover half of her face. When it reached the bottom, the slightly cool zipper, along with Meng Yanxi's fingers, touched her chin, and Jin Zhao naturally looked up.
At the same time, a shadow fell over them, and the man leaned down and kissed her lips.
The scent of cold mountain pine mist and his kiss filled his mouth, and Jin Zhao's eyes widened instantly.
Si Tian, who had just stepped out of the elevator, also stared wide-eyed at the same time.
She had just received a work call and was a little late coming downstairs when she was greeted by this scene as soon as the elevator doors opened.
It's undeniably beautiful; a handsome man and a beautiful woman. The cool guy, under the pretense of zipping up his zipper, suddenly ambushes the sweet girl, resulting in a sweet tug-of-war.
But I was still a little shocked.
Just as shocked as Si Tian was Luo Heng, who had been pretending not to look but couldn't help watching the whole thing.
He opened his mouth in shock, and couldn't help but curse in his heart again: Meng Yanxi, that dog!
*
Because of Meng Yanxi's sudden kiss, when the group took the cable car up the ski slope, Si Tian and Luo Heng consciously didn't go with them, no longer unknowingly acting as a third wheel.
The two of them lagged behind the little mandarin ducks and boarded the next cable car.
As soon as the cable car doors closed, the two gossipy duo, who had been holding back their grumbles, suddenly burst out in unison: "Holy crap!"
Luo Heng had at least fought with Meng Yanxi beforehand, so he knew some of the inside story. Si Tian was completely shocked. She grabbed Luo Heng's snowsuit and asked incredulously, "They're actually together?"
Realizing the ambiguity of his words, he immediately corrected himself: "What I meant was, I knew that with Meng Yanxi's two-faced, dog-like nature and his endless tricks, Zhao Zhao would be completely under his thumb sooner or later, it was just a matter of time. But I always thought that with Zhao Zhao's calm and collected nature, Meng would have to endure it for a very long time. Who knew he would succeed so quickly? That New Year's Eve..."
Thinking of how Jin Zhao hadn't replied to her messages for a whole day and night that night, and how Meng Yanxi hadn't paid any attention to Luo Heng for a whole day and night, and considering a certain possibility... and then thinking of all the messages she had kept bombarding her with, Si Tian covered her face with her hand.
She also complained that Jin Zhao's boss was constantly finding new ways to torment her, making her so tired. This isn't a boss at all; it's probably just that dog Meng Yanxi!
Then, he and Luo Heng, those two idiots, went around trying to set people up, thinking they were the best matchmakers.
But Si Tian certainly wouldn't admit it was her fault; she'd just blame Luo Heng for being too stupid.
She glanced at him sideways and, without any hesitation, shifted the blame: "Look at you! What kind of mess have you made!"
Luo Heng: "?"
But Luo Heng was also shameless, stubbornly insisting on saving face, saying, "I don't know what you're thinking, but I already knew, and I willingly came to be a paparazzi."
"How did you know?" Si Tian asked incredulously.
If Zhao Zhao tells Luo Heng but doesn't tell her, then she will really be heartbroken.
Luo Heng raised his eyelids slightly, and said self-deprecatingly, "Didn't Meng Yanxi post it on her WeChat Moments?"
Si Tian: "?"
Si Tian paused for two seconds, then finally remembered the splash screen-like post on her WeChat Moments, and asked in shock, "On your birthday? No, I thought he was just imagining things again! Who knew this time it was for real!"
Luo Heng: Yeah! Who knew this time it would be for real!
Light snow was falling on the mountain, and the wind and snow continued to blow outside the cable car.
Jin Zhao felt a bit hot; he was already sweating even before he started skating.
She blushed after Meng Yanxi teased her, and even after the cable car had traveled halfway, the heat on her face hadn't subsided.
Although he only touched her lips for a brief two or three seconds, she still felt embarrassed in the hotel lobby with so many people watching, including Luo Heng and Si Tian, hotel staff, and possibly other guests.
As expected of Meng Yanxi, he was shameless enough to start fiddling with his phone.
Looking out through the cable car's transparent windows, one sees an endless landscape, all covered in silver.
Meng Yanxi would take pictures of the outside for a while, then take pictures of her, and then hold her hand.
Jin Zhao didn't remember Meng Yanxi liking to take photos, and it seemed to be true, as he rarely updated his WeChat Moments.
She didn't understand why he suddenly kept taking pictures, even while still on the cable car, and asked sincerely, "Shouldn't you wait until we're skiing to take pictures?"
Meng Yanxi lowered her head and deleted a few photos that weren't very good, mumbled an "uh," and said, "Take more photos later."
He wasn't very satisfied with his photography skills and was afraid that Jin Zhao would dislike them, so he picked and deleted photos until they were all gone.
I turned to her and asked, "Are there drones for sale in the mountains?"
Jin Zhao: "?"
Meng Yanxi didn't seem to be joking at all; her expression was very serious: "A DSLR camera is fine too; phone photos don't look good."
Jin Zhao looked bewildered: "Why do I need to make it look so good?"
Aren't most people's photography skills about the same? Just take a casual picture.
Meng Yanxi looked up from her phone screen and quietly gazed at her.
He was probably waiting for her to understand on her own, but unfortunately he overestimated his girlfriend again; all she could see was a vast expanse of white snow.
He said helplessly, "I'll post it on my WeChat Moments."
Why post on WeChat Moments?
Jin Zhao has always been a reserved person, and he rarely posted on WeChat Moments in the past, let alone now that he's a university teacher. His superiors often tell him to post less on WeChat Moments. It's not that he's not allowed to, but he tries to restrain his urge to share.
Of course, she doesn't need to restrain her desire to share.
Jin Zhao instinctively wanted to ask, but when she met Meng Yanxi's "Don't ask anymore, or I'll really be sad" look in her eyes, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration and quickly shut up.
But it was too late.
With a rare hint of coquettishness and sadness in her peach blossom eyes, Meng Yanxi asked softly, "Am I that shameful?"
