Chapter 99 So frustrating! I was so angry I'd wake up in the middle of the night and pound the bed!

Cheng Jiao and Qian Xu were busy as bees.

Of course, Ling Yue was also very busy.

She was busy picking out clothes, preparing to go out shopping in a while.

She stood in the walk-in closet of the presidential suite, her face—fair, smooth, and radiant even without makeup—crinkling in thought. "I'm still missing an outfit."

Zang Lanyi crossed her arms, lazily leaning against the door frame. Hearing Ling Yue's words, she almost slipped.

Didn't you just buy 30 sets yesterday?

Xie Minmin, who was organizing clothes, suddenly raised her head and echoed: "Indeed, one piece is still missing."

"What's missing?" Zang Lanyi asked honestly.

"A qipao!"

Ling Yue and Xie Minmin said in unison.

The two looked at each other and saw agreement in each other's eyes.

Arriving in the water towns of Suzhou, yet the wardrobe was filled with old money, casual, and heiress-style clothing—it clearly didn't fit the vibe.

Different environments, of course, require different clothes!

"Do we need to contact the mall to send clothes over now?" Cheng Jiao was away, and Qu Shu was temporarily acting as the 'chief steward'.

It was already 1 PM.

"No, I have an appointment at the Humble Administrator's Garden at three, and it will take twenty minutes to get there." Ling Yue rejected it.

"Ah!" Xie Minmin suddenly spoke up: "I know a small shop that does private custom qipaos.

I bought clothes from them when I visited Suzhou before, and the quality and fit were excellent.

How about I take you there after visiting the Humble Administrator's Garden?"

Because it was a small workshop, she was afraid Ling Yue would look down on it, so she specifically clarified: "It's not famous online; it's just some locals who go there to make clothes.

The whole shop is run by an auntie and an old grandpa; it's a bit small."

She pinched her thumb and index finger together, leaving a very small gap.

"Always trust the choices of the locals! We'll go after we finish touring the garden!" Ling Yue patted Xie Minmin on the shoulder.

In that instant, Xie Minmin felt the burden on her shoulders was heavy! It carried her boss's expectations of her!

She secretly checked online.

Huh, the small shop actually had some promotion... but not much.

The weather was clear, and the number of tourists visiting the garden today could be described as packed.

Liang Hanlin's bodyguard team followed behind Ling Yue in a semi-enclosing formation, trying their best not to let the people behind crowd her.

"Boss, come here quickly to this spot!!!" Luo Shanshan was always holding her phone and snapping pictures. Suddenly, she found a spot against the wall with a beautiful view—the breeze swayed the branches, and golden-black light and shadows flickered on the wall, like lively little fish.

Ling Yue entered the viewfinder.

"Turn a bit to the side, show your profile, soften your gaze, look down at the swaying leaves. Yes, yes, yes, the wind is coming, the wind is coming! Don't move, don't move!"

Luo Shanshan had a knack for photography. She snapped dozens of shots in a row.

Then, like she was presenting a treasure, she handed it to Ling Yue to look at.

The photo was only of the upper body, perfectly capturing the moment the sunlight poured onto her face. Her amber pupils were infinitely gentle, her hair was swaying, and behind her were green plants and light and shadow, making Ling Yue's body half in shadow, half in the light, full of divinity.

"A photo of a lifetime! A photo of a lifetime! Not bad, flash a few more for me!"

Ling Yue was incredibly excited and struck several more poses affectedly.

"Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! Wow, this light! My god, this angle! Ahhh, it looks so good~"

Taking pictures made Luo Shanshan thirsty.

She offered her photography skills and took good-looking photos of everyone present.

When it was Liang Hanlin's turn, his fierce-looking face showed a rare trace of shyness: "I, I think I'll pass."

With so many people watching, he was a bit embarrassed.

Luo Shanshan never indulged him, "Then move away, don't waste time."

What if other tourists want to come here to take pictures? They couldn't occupy it for too long.

Liang Hanlin: ? You're not even going to try to persuade me a little?

Then, he watched helplessly as Xiao Liu, Xiao Ma, Bodyguard Xiao Wen, and Xiao Zhong got their own photos of a lifetime!

He was so frustrated that he would wake up in the middle of the night and sit up to pound the bed.

Xiao Liu doesn't even look as good as him, yet he was taken to look tall and mighty, and his jawline even came out! If he took it to a blind date, he would definitely be pushed by the matchmaking agency!

A miscalculation, a miscalculation!

He realized that in life, you can't be too concerned with face.

Walking and taking pictures, it was crowded, and although they originally planned to visit for only two hours, they ended up staying for four hours.

Coming out of the crowded garden, the surrounding air felt ample.

"Boss, your photos can be posted directly without any editing, you don't even need to Photoshop them. I've sent them to you directly." Luo Shanshan didn't stop operating her phone.

Ling Yue received the pictures and immediately changed her wallpaper.

Walking along, she suddenly stopped and transferred 100,000 yuan to Luo Shanshan:

"Go get yourself a good camera. The rest of the money is for your hard work in taking pictures. Next time we go out, you'll be the part-time photographer."

Luo Shanshan was so excited she stomped her feet, "Really?!"

For her, photography was something anyone could do. Even if Ling Yue hadn't mentioned it this time, she was actually planning to buy a camera to practice.

She had previously signed up for a photography class and had already taken one systematic lesson online.

Having one more skill means one more reason for the boss to choose her!

She wanted to make herself full of cost-effectiveness, so the boss couldn't bear to replace her.

And at this moment, her strategy seemed to have succeeded. Oh yeah!

Taking pictures was quite energy-consuming.

Ling Yue wanted to say, do you see the restaurant with the glowing sign in the distance? Her eyes were brighter than that sign right now!

She pointed into the distance, "Let's go eat; I need food."

Xie Minmin touched her chin, "Boss, perhaps you know the rule about not looking for good food near tourist attractions?"

"??? What?"

Ling Yue didn't understand. This was her first time traveling, and she was the type who hadn't even made a plan.

Xie Minmin explained: "There are usually many viral shops near tourist attractions, and it's easy to get burned.

Last time I came to Suzhou, I won't say anything else, but my mouth never stopped. I tried 18 small restaurants and finally discovered a treasure of a small restaurant.

They make local Su-style cuisine and fusion dishes. The taste is quite good. The environment is definitely not as good as the viral shops, but the taste is good."

The taste is good—she emphasized it twice.

"Lead the way, hurry."

Ling Yue was really, truly hungry.
