Chapter 898: Camera shy

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

As the rain continued to pour over Imperial, inside Yue Ling and Lu Tian’s home, Yang Yang stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. He watched the scene outside and sighed with a troubled expression.

He looked down at his watch, and he spun around to look at the others upon realizing the time.

“It’s getting late. What’s taking them so long? We need—”

Before he could finish his words, he noticed that everyone in the living room was staring in one direction. He didn’t think much and followed their eyes but what he saw took him by great surprise.

He couldn’t help but sound a faint gasp.

“Oh my goodness.”

Entering the living room was none other than Yue Ling and Lu Tian. The couple looked so perfect and magical. It was as if they had stepped out of a painting.

“Wow.”

The first to break the silence was Ju Suo. The petite woman held her hands on her chest and smiled in awe at her boss.

“If I didn’t know any better, I would have thought today was actually the big day.”

“I agree with Ju Suo.”

Lian Ni Shang chimed in with a huge smile on her face that was usually cold.

“Maybe we should skip the photo shoot and just bring you both to the civil affairs bureau to administer your marriage.”

Hearing this, Ju Suo’s eye lit up with sparks, and she nodded her head in agreement.

“That sounds like a great idea.”

She looks at her boss without letting the light in her eyes dim.

“What do you say, boss? Can we just do that?”

Yue Ling stares at the two women of her design team with a loss. She chuckles at the idea and thinks it doesn’t sound so bad. However, she knew better than anyone that she couldn’t do that to Madam Lu, who was taking her time to plan the wedding.

“We can’t do that. It wouldn’t be fair to the others.”

Both Ju Suo and Lian Ni Shang pursed their lips with a look of disappointment.

“Alright, that’s enough. Let’s continue with the photo shoot.”

From behind the two women, the Gui Zhongmin interrupts the conversation. He walks through between the women and stops in front of his boss with a smile.

“We did what we can, but I hope you are satisfied with the work everyone put into setting up the shoot.”

“That’s right.”

Gui Tian Lan’s voice follows after his younger twin brother. He reaches out to pick something up from the side before walking over to his boss.

Once he stands in front of Yue Ling, he holds out the item in his hand.

“Although it’s not as nice as the setup at the lake, we hope you still like it.”

Yue Ling looks away from Gui Zhongmin to Gui Tian Lan. Her eyes lower to his hand, and seeing the assorted flowers bouquet in his hands, the corners of her lip curls up.

She could tell by a glance that Gui Tian Lian had taken careful measurements to put the flowers together nicely.

Before taking the bouquet, she looks around her home to see the place decorated in white with floral touches here and there. Compared to the lake that made one feel like they were in an enchanted forest, the feeling one got at this moment was that of a mystical land.

Turning away from the decorations, she takes the bouquet from her tailor and stares down at it. She was met with eucalyptus, peach pink flowers, and white Baby’s breath flowers.

“Thank you.”

The words escaped her lips with gratitude as she looked up at Gui Tian Lian and then at others in the room.

“All of you. Everything here looks perfect.”

She knows that everyone took their time to make this photoshoot work. For that, she was genuinely thankful to have them in her life.

As her thoughts began to drift into the abyss, she was brought back to reality when she felt a gentle squeeze on her other free hand.

She slowly turned her head to the person in question, and the smile on her face widened.

“Especially you, Tian. Thank you for making this happen.”

Lu Tian nodded his head with a calm expression, but he was more proud than all the people present deep inside. This photoshoot would not have happened if it wasn’t for him.

However, unlike him, both Liu Shan and Xu Long rolled their eyes upon seeing his behavior.

It was true that this event happened because of Lu Tian, but without them, nothing would have succeeded. Of course, neither man would dare to voice their thoughts in fear of the cold and aloof man’s wrath.

“Yue Ling, Lu Tian, if you’re both ready, let’s proceed with the shoot before it gets too dark.”

Yang Yang suddenly interrupted the atmosphere and stood in front of the couple. At the same time, he didn’t forget to admire the two people as they were two people made for each other.

Hearing his words, everyone was quick to agree and walked to their assigned spots.

Watching everyone scatter like ants, Yue Ling couldn’t help but laugh. She looks at Lu Tian and gazes into his dark eyes.

“Ready?”

Lu Tian meets her eyes and smiles a small smile at her.

“I’m ready if you are.”

He spoke with a calm voice, but he didn’t know why but he was suddenly feeling nervous on the inside. It is a very foreign feeling for him to feel this way.

Yue Ling arched an eyebrow at his response. However, a glistening light flashes across her eyes within seconds of this.

“I was born ready.”

She turns away from him before taking the lead. She held onto his hand as she walked towards the white couch decorated with flower arrangements and sheer white curtains.

Lu Tian gazed into the back of her head, and it was only then that he was able to identify the nervous feeling in him.

He remembers that his wife was once a renowned model in the fashion industry. He may have seen her walk the runway, but he has never seen her pose in front of a camera.

He felt slight regret and wished that he would be able to see her model again one day.

And little did he know, his wish was about to come true.

Yue Ling leisurely walked to the white couch, but her expression held confidence. She may have retired from the modeling world, but that does not mean she has lost her skills.

She stops in front of the white couch and sets the flower bouquet down before taking a seat. As she did this, she didn’t forget to bring Lu Tian to sit down with her.

Once he was seated to her left, she crossed her left leg over the right as she placed her elbow on his shoulder and smiled.

“Now, the question is, are you camera shy?”

Lu Tian was taken aback when he heard her emphasize the word ‘you’ and her sudden posture. However, he quickly shook it off with a smile and leaned his head towards her.

“I’m fine as long as you are here.”

His words fell, and he crossed his right leg over his left leg, making a four figure. He leans back in a slightly relaxed posture and puts his right arm over his wife’s shoulders.

Watching him pose naturally, Yue Ling arches her eyebrows in surprise. Her smile widens, but she doesn’t say anything, and she decides to change her position.

She turns away from him a little and leans back against him. She moves her elbow from him but only to rest it on his right leg with her chin on her fingers.

Once she was in her new position, she looked at the camera. However, if she had turned to look at the man next to her, she would have seen that his eyes were locked on her.

Liu Shan stood at a reasonable distance in front of them with a camera in hand. He watched the couple’s every move and squealed inside like a little girl, especially at his boss.

In his eyes, this wasn’t a wedding photo shoot but a photo shoot to show the world that Han Yue Ling and Lu Tian were a powerful couple.

At the same time, seeing his boss like this made him want to cry. It was as if he was walking down memory lane to the times she was still a model.

As his thoughts drifted to the past, next to him were Xu Long and Yang Yang, but the two men held a confused look on their faces.

Neither could understand why Liu Shan was smiling. To them, the assistant’s smile was quite confusing. It looked like he was happy, then sad, and back and forth one moment. However, it wasn’t long before they received an answer.

Liu Shan raises his hands, holding the camera, and looks into the viewfinder before muttering.

“Time to remind the world who Han Yue Ling is.”

As the camera took its first flash, Xu Long’s jaw dropped to the floor, and at the second flash, Yang Yang gasped in surprise. Both men had forgotten that Yue Ling was a model before retiring.

However, what shook them to the core was that Lu Tian, who has no experience in modeling, matched up to all of Yue Ling’s moves.

It was as if the couple was born to be together in front of the camera.

The more they watched the scene, something crossed their minds. Xu Long and Yang Yang turn to look at one other in slow motion as Liu Shan stands slightly crouched between them.

If their interpretation of the assistant’s words is as they think, then that means this photoshoot is like a…

“Comeback.”
