Chapter 114: Urgent Preparations for the Wedding (4)

Di Yi let go of Gu Xin and sat down.

“The bride will stand behind the groom.”

Gu Xin followed.

“Lean on the groom’s shoulder and reveal your chin,” Di An said in a professional tone.

Gu Xin did as she was told.

“Okay, please look at the camera…” Di An took two photos and then continued with his interaction.

The photoshoot went much smoother than Gu Xin expected.

She had thought that at least, she and Di An would feel awkward around each other, but she had underestimated his professionalism. He treated her and Di Yi like ordinary clients.

One set after another was completed.

It was progressing very quickly.

Gu Xin was starting to wonder if Di An had filmed well.

While they were changing, she stopped for half a minute before going to Di An. “Can I take a look?”

Di An looked at her. “We don’t recommend the client to see the film during filming as it might affect her performance later on.”

“I want to see how the filming went,” Gu Xin said.

“It went very well.”

“I don’t believe you.” Gu Xin glared at him.

Di An looked back at her.

“Let me see.” Gu Xin was stubborn.

Di An picked up the camera beside him and passed it to her.

She received it and started to flip through it.

The photos hadn’t been edited yet, but they were really well taken.

She suddenly did not know what to feel. She browsed through a few photos and then returned the camera to Di An. She then turned around and left.

Di An watched Gu Xin leave and quietly put his camera aside.

How untrustworthy was he?

They filmed five indoor gowns, and the last set was the formal gown.

The long dress made her look a little sexy.

The tube top design revealed her deep cleavage, and the back area was almost below the waist. The curves of her buttocks were vaguely visible, revealing the softness and beauty of a woman.

“This shoot should be sexier and more intimate,” Di An said to them.

“Mm-hm.” Gu Xin nodded.

She thought so too.

She had been a little hesitant when she picked this gown. If it had been any other photographer, she might have picked a bolder one. But after today’s shoot, she felt that she had been thinking too much. Di An evidently did not care anymore.

Hence, Gu Xin was getting more and more relaxed.

There was a huge white bed at the set, and she lay down elegantly on it.

Di Yi was kneeling in front of her, and the two of them kept a loving distance.

Di An was filming in front of them with his camera, looking very professional.

“Groom, please kiss the bride,” he said.

Gu Xin was stunned.

Di Yi smiled and lowered his head to kiss her.

Di An held the camera.

Anxiety filled his eyes.

A while later.

“Teacher Di…” His assistant reminded him softly.

If this went on for too long, the bride and groom would feel uncomfortable as well.

Di An snapped a picture. “Alright. That’s all for today. We’ll film the outdoor scenes tomorrow.”

Di Yi and Gu Xin got off the bed.

When she got up, she saw that Di An had left with his camera.

The assistant did not know about their relationship, but he knew that they were VIP guests and could not afford to offend them. He hurriedly said, “Teacher Di is a little antisocial, so don’t mind him. But his photography skills are really good. He usually takes photos in fashion magazines and has even gone on an international weekly newspaper. It’s rare for him to take wedding photos. Your photos will definitely be beautiful.”

Di Yi and Gu Xin chose to remain silent as they got changed and removed their makeup.

The two of them got into the car tiredly.

After such a long day, Gu Xin felt like she was falling apart. She leaned into Di Yi’s arms weakly.

“Xiao Xin, I’ll send you back first. I have to work overtime tonight, so I can’t accompany you for dinner,” Di Yi said apologetically.

“Don’t work too hard, or my heart will ache.” He was already so tired but still needed to work overtime.

“Mm-hm. I’ll be busy for the time being. Once I’m done with my stuff, I’ll be able to go on a honeymoon overseas with you in peace after we get married.” Di Yi stroked her soft hair. “Go home and rest well.”

“Alright.” Gu Xin nodded obediently.

The car arrived at the Gu family’s villa, and Di Yi left.

Gu Xin watched as Di Yi’s car disappeared before returning to the villa.

She lay on the bed, refusing to move.

She slept lazily for a while and then took out her cell phone to make a call.

The call went through quickly. “Gu Xin.”

“Manman, I’m tired.”

“Why?”

“Wedding photos,” Gu Xin answered lazily.

“Oh,” Lu Manman replied.

She had been busy the whole day, preparing countermeasures to improve her market performance. She had also tired herself out during the day.

“When Di An took my photos today…” Gu Xin hesitated.

“What’s wrong?”

“It’s nothing much. The filming went very smoothly. I don’t think Di An has anything for me anymore.”

“You sound disappointed?” Lu Manman asked directly.

“I already said that I’m not disappointed. It’s impossible for me to like Di An. I just feel that he seems to be quite a distance away from me,” Gu Xin said a little sadly.

“Isn’t that what you want?”

Gu Xin did not know what to say to Lu Manman.

“Gu Xin, Di An has his own life as well, and he can’t possibly live in your shadow forever. Moreover, you’re getting married soon, so what can he count on you for? Since you already know what you want, don’t think too much about it,” Lu Manman said very seriously. “No one in this world will wait for you forever.”

“I didn’t ask Di An to wait for me. I just…” Gu Xin bit her lip. “Forget it. You wouldn’t understand even if I told you. I’m tired out from the whole day. I’m hanging up.”

She hung up immediately.

Lu Manman looked at the words: call ended. She shook her head.

She put down the phone and looked up at Qin Ao, who was sitting respectfully on the couch.

It was already past time to knock off.

She stretched and thought for a while and then saved half of the work she had on the computer. She then switched it off and put it in her bag. “It’s time to knock off.”

“Yes.” Qin Ao stood up.

Lu Manman got off work with him.

The two of them did not talk much. After dinner at the Lu family’s villa, Lu Manman returned to her room to continue her work.

She had actually never worked in the industry before. She had been working on some of the outstanding business cases in the country and abroad and had started planning and developing the industry according to her understanding of the market. She did not know if the results would be obvious, but she did not think that it was a difficult thing to do in the business industry.
