Seeing that these words had spoiled the mood, Luo Ziling quickly changed the subject.

"Let me take a photo of you," he said with a smile, pulling out his smartphone, "to capture a beautiful moment for you, how about that?"

"Don't make me look ugly," Yang Qingyin didn't refuse, and casually stood under a weeping willow by the side of the road, her back to the lake, without striking a peace sign like most girls do. Her hands simply held each other naturally in front of her body, and her slightly smiling eyes looked at Luo Ziling.

In Luo Ziling's eyes, Yang Qingyin was beautiful no matter what pose she took, as long as she had a smile on her face.

She also looked good without a smile, but an unsmiling face added a touch of depth and elegance, losing some approachability and playfulness.

Luo Ziling took out his Redmi smartphone and took a few photos of Yang Qingyin, feeling a bit embarrassed as he showed them to her, saying, "The phone isn't great, it didn't capture all your beauty."

"They're pretty good," seeing herself smiling sweetly, very beautiful and charming, Yang Qingyin quite liked these photos, and she quickly begged Luo Ziling, "Can you send me the photos?"

"Of course," Luo Ziling readily agreed, but then said immediately, "How about I take a few with your phone as well? I've never seen your photo in your Moments. I guess you don't like to take pictures, and definitely aren't like other girls who pout for selfies now and then. Today I've captured your most beautiful look, so you don't need to thank me; it's what I should do."

Yang Qingyin was once again amused by Luo Ziling's words and didn't refuse. She took out her own phone from her pants pocket and handed it over to Luo Ziling.

The phone Yang Qingyin was using was the newly released Apple 7S PLUS, which Luo Ziling had seen when he went with his dorm mates to look at phones upon first arriving at school. The sales price of more than seven thousand had surprised him.

He wasn't taken aback that Yang Qingyin could afford such an upscale phone, since everyone talked about her family being quite well-off.

With Yang Qingyin's phone, he took a few more photos of her, and even a short video.

Normally, Yang Qingyin wasn't interested in photography and didn't like to take pictures of herself when going out, but after Luo Ziling had taken photos of her today, she became quite excited to see them.

Looking at the photos Luo Ziling took, which captured her expression beautifully, she felt a bit smug.

"It seems the ones taken with your phone are even better. Send me a few to keep as a memory!" Luo Ziling asked her."

"These are my photos, why should I keep them for you?" Yang Qingyin playfully asked back, and after asking, she bit her lip and looked at Luo Ziling, not blinking an eye.

"I'll take them out and look at your beautiful face from time to time. If I'm in a bad mood, seeing your photo will definitely cheer me up," Luo Ziling said seriously, then flattered her a bit more, "A beautiful woman is pleasing to the eyes. Since I can't see you often, looking at your photos isn't bad either. Don't be stingy, I know you're generous."

Feeling very happy, Yang Qingyin didn't refuse anymore, "Okay, I'll send them to you when we rest somewhere later. But you can't let others see them, and you can't post them in Moments."

"You already reminded me of that last time," Luo Ziling said and then immediately laughed, "I'll definitely remember the senior comrade's teaching, and I won't let other classmates sneak a peek at your beauty. I'll just hide under my blanket and admire it in secret."

"Smooth talker," Yang Qingyin gave Luo Ziling a white look, "You seem quite honest, but I didn't expect you to be good at buttering people up."

"Senior sister, you wouldn't have a masochistic streak, would you? Don't tell me you don't like hearing that you're beautiful and would rather be called an ugly monster?"

"I am an ugly monster!" Yang Qingyin huffed, then, with her head held high and hands behind her back, she strode forward.

Luo Ziling quickly followed her and teased again, "Senior sister, are you talking about the kind of fruit that tastes very good? I remember there's a fruit called the 'ugly monster,' and I really like eating it."

Yang Qingyin paused, then stamped her foot and became annoyed, "You actually dare to tease me, I'm not talking to you anymore."

With that, she strode forward.

Luo Ziling was startled for a moment, thought about it carefully, and then understood the ambiguity in his words. He quickly followed to clarify, "Senior, I didn't mean it like that! Even if you were a fruit, I wouldn't dare to bite recklessly."

Yang Qingyin stopped in her tracks, turned around to give Luo Ziling a few serious looks, and, making sure that he wasn't actually flirting with her, she then burst into laughter, "You are really funny!"

Seeing Yang Qingyin smile again, Luo Ziling breathed a sigh of relief, "Senior, you're the most beautiful school beauty at Yan University, the goddess in all the guys' hearts. The fellas in my dorm talk about you all the time, dreaming about encountering you someday and then having some kind of story happen!"

This remark made Yang Qingyin stop walking again, she looked at Luo Ziling seriously and then asked, "So, do you feel particularly proud?"

"What?" Luo Ziling didn't catch on at once.

Yang Qingyin didn't explain, but just smiled mischievously and continued walking forward. She even took out her phone and snapped a photo of Luo Ziling looking bewildered. After a moment, Luo Ziling realized what Yang Qingyin had meant with her question and couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

His bewildered expression and the chuckles that followed were all captured by Yang Qingyin's camera.

"Such a vivid expression," Yang Qingyin teased, waving her phone at Luo Ziling.

Luo Ziling immediately rushed forward to see the photos of himself.

Yang Qingyin didn't refuse and let him take a look generously.

When Luo Ziling saw a photo of himself looking dazed and another with a slightly shameless smile, he couldn't help but feel a mix of annoyance and embarrassment.

"Could you delete these two photos?" Luo Ziling asked quietly. "They're too embarrassing."

"I think they're pretty good, very natural. I won't delete them. I'll keep them to look at them in the future, and they'll make me laugh every time I see them," Yang Qingyin said as she put her phone back in her pocket, keeping it from Luo Ziling's view.

"Alright then," Luo Ziling could do nothing about it and didn't press any further. He continued walking forward with Yang Qingyin.

After walking for a bit, he suddenly suggested, "Senior, how about we take a selfie together? The scenery here is really nice – lake and mountains, pavilions and pagodas, and the sunlight is just perfect. A handsome guy and a beautiful girl in one photo – it would look amazing!"

Yang Qingyin didn't expect Luo Ziling to be so bold and hesitated for a moment. She wanted to refuse, but eventually, she was somehow compelled to agree.

"Alright, I'll indulge you by being a part of your background, and accompany you for a couple of photos. Do we use your phone or mine?"

"Let's use mine. Self-timer," Luo Ziling had just figured out the self-timer function and wanted to show it off to Yang Qingyin. Without waiting for her reaction, he took out his own phone, switched to the self-timer mode, and placed it on a tree branch. He asked Yang Qingyin to stand still as the model while he adjusted the angle.

After setting it up, he pressed the shoot button and then sprinted to stand beside Yang Qingyin.

But as he reached her side, he suddenly didn't know where to stand. Hearing the self-timer beep, the shutter was about to click, and in his excitement, he reached out and wrapped his arms around Yang Qingyin's shoulders.

As he held her shoulders, the camera clicked, and the photo was automatically taken.

The photo captured Yang Qingyin's expression of surprise and Luo Ziling's slightly shy demeanor.
