Chapter 793
It was close to Christmas, and it was almost the new year. At the entrance of the theater, there were many vendors selling flowers. It was rare to see a beautiful couple walking over, so they went forward with a few types of flowers in their arms.
“Sir, buy some flowers. Your girlfriend is so beautiful. Give her some...” The vendor naturally said all kinds of nice things.
Xu Yuanfei’s heart, which had just calmed down, jumped so wildly that it was suffocating.
“We’re not a couple. Sorry.” Instead of waiting for Jing Hanchuan to deny it and make her feel awkward, it was better for her to speak herself.
“Which one do you like?” Jing Hanchuan pretended not to hear her explanation. He felt uncomfortable, but he didn’t show it. He chose a bouquet of blue and purple baby’s-breath and gave them to her. “Is this good?”
The vendor naturally had roses, but giving roses was too obvious. Moreover, Xu Yuanfei had just explained their relationship, so Jing Hanchuan made this choice because he was afraid that the atmosphere would be awkward later.
I can’t force her too hard in one go.
I should leave room and slowly pursue her.
Xu Yuanfei hesitated but finally reached out to take the flowers. “Thank you.”
Holding them in her arms, she felt as though she owned the entire world.
“Miss, this color suits you very well. Do you want to take a photo? We can develop the photos here. It’ll only take a few minutes.” The vendor immediately started selling other businesses.
“Do you want to take a picture?” Jing Hanchuan turned his head to look at her.
Vendors were all smart people. He could tell that the relationship between the two of them was just in the period of ambiguity. He immediately smiled and said, “I can help you take a group photo.”
But in the end, they didn’t take a group photo. Instead, Jing Hanchuan took out his phone and took two random photos for her.
Although he wasn’t a professional photographer, his photography skills were very good. Be it the lighting angle or the composition choice, although they were only taken with a phone, they gave off a stylish feeling.
He took the photos very quickly, and Xu Yuanfei couldn’t even pose in front of him. Her entire body seemed a little wooden, and her limbs were stiff. Her entire body was out of sync, so when he said that he had finished taking the photos, she was about to go crazy.
The photos must be all kinds of ugly.
“Let me take a look.” She moved closer to his phone.
Her eyes were gentle, watery, and lively. In short, under his camera, she looked very good...
“Your photography skills are really good. Remember to send them to me later.”
“Okay.” Jing Hanchuan silently put away his phone. “Actually, it’s not that my photography skills are good.”
“What?”
“You look good.”
Xu Yuanfei felt that she was really about to die.
Her heart, which had just calmed down, started beating wildly again.
She pinched the flowers in her hand, and her heart seemed to be full of warmth. This man is really talented at flirting.
Dad, Mom, what should I do?! I want to steal the residence booklet again!

In the end, Xu Yuanfei didn’t let him send her back. The two of them went home separately. After Jing Hanchuan sent the photos to her, he sent the photos to his computer, did some processing with the background, and entered his darkroom to develop the photos.
He had checked some information that said that girls who were unwilling to let boys send them home perhaps didn’t like them or felt that their relationship wasn’t that close yet.
Jing Hanchuan wasn’t in a hurry. The two of them could take their time. One day, she would bring him back willingly.
He stared at the person in the photo. Her eyes and eyebrows were picturesque. The background was black and white. The only colors were her slightly red gorgeous face and the purple and blue baby’s-breath. The visual impact was breathtaking.
He watched as the photo gradually became clearer under the washing of the photography fluid.
The corners of his lips slowly curled up...
She’s even more beautiful and delicate than flowers.
In this small private space of Jing Hanchuan, it was like his lonely and cold heart was occupied by Xu Yuanfei for the first time.
The big shot of the Jing family watched as his son busied himself after returning home and then plunged into the darkroom. He frowned slightly as he pinched the fish food and kept feeding the goldfish.
He was suspicious and looked at the people who followed Jing Hanchuan. “Who did he go out with today?”
The few of them looked at each other and hesitated, not daring to speak.
“It’s probably the young lady from the dessert store. She’s fair and beautiful, and she has a good personality.” Sheng Aiyi didn’t care about her family background. Jing Hanchuan’s happiness was more important than anything else. “It’s mainly because you think she looks familiar.”
The fingers of the big shot of the Jing family trembled. It was so long ago. How can she still remember?
“Sometimes, affinity is very important. I think she looks nice and makes me feel comfortable, and you think she looks familiar. She might really become our daughter-in-law.” Sheng Aiyi smiled.
“By the way, when we went out today, we saw Master Xu.” A Jing family member changed the topic.
“Where did you see him?”
Sure enough, at the mention of the Xu family, a certain big shot’s attention was instantly diverted.
“At the design exhibition. He and Mrs. Xu went to the exhibition.”
A certain big shot was speechless. “When did he become interested in that kind of thing?
“I know a thing or two about what kind of person he is.
“Is he turning good and changing professions and preparing to take the artistic and literary route?”
Sheng Aiyi almost choked on his words. Why is he disparaging the Xu family? “The Xu family is refined to begin with.”
“I wonder how that little girl from back then is now. But his daughter is most likely the female version of Lu Zhishen.”
Sheng Aiyi was speechless. How malicious is he toward the Xu family? Why is he talking about a child? He’s so childish that it’s ridiculous.

At this moment, the female version of Lu Zhishen that a certain big shot mentioned had received the photos from Jing Hanchuan and posted them on her Moments without any text.
Tang Jingci happened to be resting. When the two of them were at the barbecue, they had exchanged their contact info. When she saw Xu Yuanfei’s Moments update, she couldn’t help showing the photos to Qiao Xiyan.
“Look at the photos her boyfriend took. Look at yours. They’re simply incomparable.”
The two of them were so close now that they naturally dared to say anything.
Qiao Xiyan raised his eyebrows. “What do you mean?”
“Your hands are clumsy!”
“Give me your phone. I’ll take a photo for you.”
Qiao Xiyan didn’t believe that he was really inferior to others. As a man, he always hoped that he was perfect in the heart of his other half.
Tang Jingci posed for him to take a picture.
He took ten photos in one go. Half of them were blurry, and the other was ugly and distorted. There was also one...
She was actually not in the photo!
His hands are definitely poisonous. His hands are so clumsy that it’s terrifying.
At this moment, Qiao Xiyan remembered that he had complained about Tang Jingci’s clumsy hands. Now that he thought about it, it was really tit for tat.
Ever since he was young, everyone had said that his hands were magical. There was all sorts of praise that he would be able to inherit his grandfather’s mantle. It was really the first time someone said that his hands were clumsy. But this person was his wife.
He had to dote on her even if he was despised.
