Gu Yu used Fetion to inform Lin Xinyue about the possible outcomes of Hu Xiaoya's loan dispute, asking Lin Xinyue to relay the information to Hu Xiaoya.
After waiting for a while, Lin Xinyue didn't respond, probably busy dealing with the endorsement for Honey Jar Ice City, so Gu Yu put his phone back in his pocket and started wandering around the school.
The sun was just right today, the clouds high and the wind clear, making it a rare good weather day in autumn.
The roadsides of the school were filled with Modu City flowers—magnolias, which, although they had bloomed once in early spring, were blooming a second time, filling the view with pink and white.
On a lawn not far ahead, the photography club was apparently holding a club activity.
Many female students as beautiful as the magnolias were standing under the trees for photos, while the male students were using their best photographic skills to capture beautifully composed pictures.
Such outdoor club activities were generally held for recruitment.
With school having started less than a month ago, it was a good time for clubs to recruit new members.
The photos taken were developed on the spot and hung on a display board in front of the sunshade, with many people stopping in front of the board to look, and interested students approaching the head of the photography club to apply to join the shoot.
Even though some people were just there for fun and didn't join the club, they would still get an outdoor art photo of themselves.
"Look, the girl in the second photo wearing Hanfu is so pretty!"
"And this guy looks so handsome; he seems so graceful~"
"Yes, yes~ and this pair in the couple's photo also has a really artistic feel."
The girls pointed at the photos, chattering away, and Gu Yu also curiously joined in.
It must be said, there were quite a few professional photographers in the photography club; most of the photos were shot really well.
Although he didn't understand photography, from a visual perspective alone, they were very pleasing to the eye.
Gu Yu looked through them one by one, and when he saw the last photo of a girl with a magnolia in her mouth, with a boy kissing her on the cheek, he suddenly felt that the girl looked familiar.
But he couldn't recall who she was at the moment.
As he was wondering who the girl could be, suddenly a shutter sound of "click" came from beside him. S~eaʀᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
He turned his head and saw a short-haired girl with a pretty face wearing a checkered JK outfit and a butterfly tie looking at him with a smile.
"Gu Yu, do you mind if I take a photo of you?"
The girl was very cheerful and showed a row of neat white teeth when she spoke.
"No problem, feel free to take pictures. How do you know my name?"
Gu Yu smiled slightly, nonchalantly shrugging his shoulders.
"Probably there aren't many people in Haidong who don't know Gu Yu. 2020 Haidong University Image Ambassador, and also the National Husband. You've blown up our social media! I'm also a big fan of yours~"
"My name is Jiang Manman, I'm the president of the photography club. I'm very happy to meet you!" Experience more content on m v|l e'-NovelFire.net
Jiang Manman's smile remained unchanged as she cheekily stuck out her tongue at Gu Yu.
Gu Yu was stunned for a second and then smiled indifferently. He looked around and indeed, everyone was looking at him with a familiar gaze.
But because they were still strangers, no one came up to chat with him.
He unconsciously tightened his coat.
"Hehe, Gu, would you do us the honor of letting our photography club take a few photos to use as our banner?"
Jiang Manman set up her camera on a tripod, then ran up to Gu Yu, looking up and pleading.
Her eyes curved into crescent moons when she smiled, making it hard to say no.
Gu Yu looked around, seeing as he truly didn't have anything else to do, he didn't refuse the warm invitation.
"No problem, go ahead and shoot, but could you give me a copy or two of the photos afterward?"
Gu Yu smiled, thinking it would be a great gift for Lin Xinyue.
He had always wanted to give a gift, but didn't know what to give; buying something seemed too plain, so a photo might be a more memorable present for Xinyue.
"Sure! We can develop the photos right here!"
"Oh, by the way, how come you're not with Lin Xinyue?"
Jiang Manman nodded vigorously after getting Gu Yu's approval.
Seeing that Gu Yu was approachable and easy to talk to, she continued to gossip.
"Well, Xinyue is a bit busy, I decided to take a walk by myself."
Gu Yu followed her to the camera setup, casually glancing at the camera. Golden Eyes easily determined the model and value of the camera.
"Canon EOS R5, worth twenty-six thousand, no wonder they say photography enthusiasts are crazy about this stuff."
Gu Yu murmured in a low voice.
However, he didn't expect that Jiang Manman overheard him.
Her eyes lit up, and she excitedly asked, "Gu also knows photography? Are you interested in joining our photography club? I can make you vice president! I think the members won't mind!"
Jiang Manman was thrilled.
If she could get Gu Yu, the big celebrity, to join the photography club, that would be fantastic!
The reputation of the photography club would definitely skyrocket, becoming well-known at Haidong University overnight.
Apart from the dance club led by Jingchuan Xiaoyu, which could compete with the photography club, other clubs were just easy targets!
But her fantasy was shattered the next second.
Gu Yu shook his head.
"No, I don't know photography—just familiar with cameras."
"Oh, that's such a pity," Jiang Manman said, slightly disappointed. But she quickly smiled again, "That's okay! I can teach you! I guarantee I could turn you into a pro in a month!"
Jiang Manman raised her eyebrows proudly, although saying she could make Gu Yu a photography expert in a month was a bit of an exaggeration.
But she had great confidence in her teaching skills!
After all, half of the club members were trained by her!
Nevertheless, Gu Yu still shook his head. Although he had a bit of interest, he wasn't keen on spending too much time on it.
A month was too long; he could be doing many more important things.
"Oh… okay then."
Jiang Manman pursed her lips, realizing that although Gu Yu seemed approachable, he wasn't someone who could easily be befriended.
Her forward approach had failed for the first time.
However, she wasn't discouraged. At least she now knew Gu Yu, right? That was a good start!
She believed she could definitely impress Gu Yu with her superb photography skills.
No one could resist a naturally beautiful photo!
No one!
"Hehe, Gu, let me do a test shot for you. Just stand here, don't move~"
Jiang Manman led Gu Yu under a magnolia tree, helping him adjust his stance.
She accidentally touched Gu Yu's injured right arm. Gu Yu slightly frowned but did not show it.
Jiang Manman didn't notice Gu Yu's discomfort. After positioning him, she dashed to her camera and started adjusting the lens.
Once she had focused the lens correctly, Jiang Manman's heart raced seeing Gu Yu through the lens.
"My God~ this doesn't need any skill at all... Just a snap and it looks great, his facial features and body proportions are too perfect!"
She whispered in rapture, feeling for the first time that her photography skills were of little use.
Standing next to Gu Yu earlier, she was greatly impressed by his charm, but it wasn't as strong as the impact of framing his whole body in a small lens.
It was only through the lens that she could precisely see Gu Yu's body proportions.
"Absolutely perfect!"
After adjusting the angle and settings, she effortlessly took a shot that could easily be a promotional poster!
She ran over to Gu Yu to change his position and "click, click, click," took several more photos!
Jiang Manman felt for the first time that portrait photography could be so simple...
"Wu Huan and Jinfeng, get a little closer. Your faces need to touch to convey that romantic love vibe!"
While leaning against the tree in an upward-looking pose, Gu Yu suddenly heard the photographer's instruction coming from behind.
Curiously, he turned his head and saw a somewhat familiar face.
Wan Jinfeng! Qin Shan, Shan's girlfriend!
She was leaning into another man's arms!
Almost kissing!
"Damn! Stop, stop! Wan Jinfeng, what are you doing? How can you do this to my brother Shan!!!"
Gu Yu abruptly stood up, shouting loudly at the two.
