Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Ye Xuan increasingly felt that she had made the right choice to choose Lu Zhen. She was a hardworking girl. She was talented and smart. She was very similar to Guan Yun. More importantly, Lu Zhen was still very young. Her potential was huge.
“Alright, I’ll take these three. I’ll help you arrange it. Prepare yourself well,” Ye Xuan said and hung up. In the blink of an eye, a week passed. The first snow fell in Beijing, and the entire city was covered in snow.
In such weather, Lu Zhen did not want to go out at all, but she still had to work.
The company had recently accepted a niche luxury brand endorsement for her. She was going to take a group of street photos near the airport today. The jewelry for the street photos was provided by the brand, but she had to prepare the clothes herself.
The photographer in charge of filming was called Roy. He had worked in the ‘Frequency Frontlines’ for six years before opening his own studio. He had worked with many big-name celebrities and was very famous in the industry.
A famous photographer like Roy had already arranged his work schedule until the end of next year. The reason why he came to take street photos for Lu Zhen today was entirely because of Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan had been in the entertainment industry for so many years and had a wide network. She was very familiar with many media personnel, photographers, and brand management.
Lu Zhen had arrived near the airport early. Because they were filming on the street today, her clothes could not be too solemn or exaggerated. That would look too deliberate and make her look fake.
However, at the same time, she could not dress too casually. Otherwise, she would look no different from the ordinary crowd around her, and it would be even harder for her to stand out from a group of celebrities.
After leaving Lu He’s company, Lu Zhen stopped working with the brand that had originally sponsored her clothes. She did not have so many clothes on hand now, so the stylist arranged by the company was in a difficult position. There were not many suitable clothes. Lu Zhen asked the stylist to choose from the autumn clothes.
In the end, the stylist chose a camel-colored cashmere coat for her.
Underneath, she wore a light white tight knitted dress with a pair of stilettos. On her head was an irregular retro wide-brimmed hat. The irregular shape of the hat did not seem so rigid. It had a hint of spirituality and liveliness, making Lu Zhen’s face look even smaller and exquisite.
However, this outfit was not very warm. When the cold wind in Beijing blew, Lu Zhen felt as if an ice knife was cutting her leg.
“Sister Zhenzhen, are you cold? Why don’t you put on another shirt?” Xiaoxiao looked at Lu Zhen with heartache.
Lu Zhen shook her head slowly. “It’s fine. We’re taking photos today. The camera will make me look fat to begin with. If I still wear so much, the effect will be a little bloated. I’m not that cold. I’ll just bear with it.”
Soon, Roy arrived. He carried the camera and said, “I’m sorry to trouble you to come out and film when it snows, but I only have time today.”
Lu Zhen smiled generously. “It’s fine. I can also see the snow in Beijing. Then let’s start filming first.”
Under Roy’s command, Lu Zhen held the brim of her hat in her left hand and her small white handbag in her right as she slowly walked towards the camera from the exit.
Xiaoxiao hugged her clothes at the side. She was shivering in a thick down jacket today, but Lu Zhen’s calves were exposed. She felt very cold just by looking at them.
However, Lu Zhen’s expression was very natural, as if she did not feel cold at all.
“Keep your hat down and your chin out a little,” Roy said.
Lu Zhen pulled down the brim of her hat slightly and then revealed her red velvet lipstick to the camera. From this angle, the lower half of Lu Zhen’s face was smooth and her lips were perfect. She looked retro and elegant.
On her hand that was holding the brim of her hat, she was wearing jewelry sponsored by the brand. The exquisite bracelet on her slender wrist looked even more luxurious, adding to Lu Zhen’s socialite aura.
“Not bad. This set of clothes is okay. Change to another set.”
Due to time constraints, she barely rested during the filming process. Lu Zhen had taken a total of five sets of clothes, and each set had its own style. Coupled with Lu Zhen’s strong performance in front of the camera, she could almost understand Roy’s guidance very quickly, so the filming went very smoothly.
A few hours later, the filming ended successfully. Seeing that he had put away the camera, Xiaoxiao hurriedly put on Lu Zhen’s down jacket and handed her a cup of steaming ginger tea.
Xiaoxiao could see that Lu Zhen’s hands were trembling slightly, and her skin was pale from the cold.
Xiaoxiao’s heart ached a little. She held Lu Zhen’s hand to warm her up..
