57: Mixed-race sister also wants to be an electronic girlfriend

This city wall is the best preserved section of ancient architecture in the entire Imperial Citadel, three stories high, with complete city gates and defenses.

Hanoi Imperial Citadel of Thăng Long North Gate Tower

Imperial Citadel of Thăng Long is an ancient city with a history spanning thousands of years.

Initially, it was a military fortress established by the Dragon Country People Tang Dynasty's Annam Protectorate in the Red River Delta.

It was later expanded several times.

Finally, it was expanded by Ly Cong Uan, the founder of the Ly Dynasty of Vietnam, on the foundation of the original Dai La Citadel and designated as the Imperial Citadel.

Until the Nguyen Dynasty moved its capital to Hue in the 19th century, this place had always been the location of the Imperial Citadel for various dynasties.

This place has also endured several wars and fires, so there are not many truly original ancient buildings left; most of the structures preserved today were rebuilt after the 19th century.

Many buildings blend Dragon Country People style and french architecture, giving the place a mixed aesthetic.

Just like the last imperial family of the Nguyen Dynasty of Vietnam, it is full of mixed-blood characteristics.

According to what Li Qinghe understood, the last imperial family of the Nguyen Dynasty had a mixed lineage of Dragon Country People, Laotian, and Cambodian bloodlines.

Even more interestingly, when Vietnam emulated China in implementing reform and opening up, 75% of the early entrepreneurs had mixed-blood imperial ancestry.

However, for Dragon Country People, these vassal kings in neighboring countries were, at best, big landlords confined to a corner, and the kind that was very disobedient.

Oh, and during the North Vietnam period, this was also the headquarters of the North Vietnam army; an underground bunker was built 9 meters beneath this Imperial Citadel, equipped with several heavy armored doors.

All of this, Li Qinghe had seen when he first arrived in Hanoi, and he concluded that it was "nothing special."

In fact, Li Qinghe felt a bit complex, because this place had belonged to Dragon Country People homeland since the Qin Dynasty, until it broke away during the Song Dynasty, was recaptured centuries later during the Ming Dynasty, and was only completely separated after the late Qing Dynasty.

Even the name of Vietnam was given by Emperor Jiaqing, and there's a small anecdote behind that name, which won't be elaborated on here.

Many unearthed artifacts here are deeply imprinted with the trace of Dragon Country People culture, and among the tourists who visit now, only Dragon Country People truly understand the significance of this cultural heritage.

Thinking about things related to this Imperial Citadel along the way, Xiao Yun and Li Qinghe had already reached the base of the city wall.

In fact, the area outside the city wall has been developed into a large square, which serves as a venue for many celebrations in Vietnam.

Li Qinghe saw Pham Huyen My by the edge of the lawn.

Today, Pham Huyen My was dressed very fashionably: an off-the-shoulder puff-sleeve top, a drawstring hip-skirt, and a pair of white high heels, which perfectly accentuated her graceful figure.

Pham Huyen My

"Brother Qinghe, come quickly!" Pham Huyen My called out to Li Qinghe with a smile, her tone hinting at intimacy.

Li Qinghe also smiled and walked over to her side.

This mixed-blood beauty, wearing eight-centimeter block heels, combined with her height of 1.7 meters, stood next to the 1.85-meter Li Qinghe, and she was not much shorter.

Li Qinghe's gaze dropped slightly, and he could see Pham Huyen My's smooth, jade-like shoulders.

Pham Huyen My looked up slightly into Li Qinghe's eyes: "Brother Qinghe, for these few poses, you need to gently put your arm around my waist."

Besides their individual male and female outfits, they also needed to take some couple photos in matching outfits today.

When signing the contract yesterday, the brand was very satisfied with Li Qinghe's physique, height, and looks, and also raised their evaluation of Pham Huyen My.

They believed that the person he recommended was very reliable and could effectively convey the brand's desired tone.

Therefore, for the couple outfit photoshoot, the brand had some ideas that required the two of them to present.

These ideas were nothing more than the two of them performing some relatively intimate actions.

If professional models were doing it, intimate actions would generally not be an issue.

However, this clothing company did not want to find professional models, but instead chose an internet celebrity girl with huge popularity like Pham Huyen My.

As a rising new internet celebrity in Vietnam.

Pham Huyen My had the right to make specific demands regarding the work she took on.

For example, if certain intimate actions with her partner made Pham Huyen My uncomfortable, she could refuse to do them.

A few meters away, the staff sent by the brand were secretly observing the interaction between Pham Huyen My and Li Qinghe.

Judging by the intimacy of their communication, it seemed they were very familiar with each other.

This also made the brand's staff secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

At least the intimate actions they designed would not be casually dismissed.

"Brother Qinghe, your hand should be placed here, so it's easier for me to turn and look at you."

To achieve better results during the photoshoot later, Pham Huyen My was rehearsing some couple poses with Li Qinghe.

The two looked at each other with deep affection one moment, and embraced tenderly the next; judging by their demeanor, they looked like a real couple.

As for Pham Huyen My, she didn't know what was wrong with her; she had originally thought Li Qinghe was just a pretty good friend in her life.

But every time she received a job that required a male partner, her first thought was Li Qinghe.

Working with other male partners always gave her a strong sense of distance; she could never find that feeling.

But by Li Qinghe's side, all the actions felt very natural, and she even had a slight fondness for Li Qinghe's strong embrace.

"A Mei, do you have any other plans this afternoon?" Li Qinghe casually asked her after they finished rehearsing.

"No, Brother Qinghe, do you have something in mind?"

"It's like this..."

Li Qinghe then told Pham Huyen My about his idea of inviting her to help him film an electronic girlfriend episode.

He also stated that he could pay her at market rate.

"Brother Qinghe, are you still treating me as a friend?" Upon hearing that Li Qinghe wanted her to shoot a video and was prepared to pay her.

Pham Huyen My playfully slapped him, indicating that she wouldn't accept a single cent of the money.

"But, you have to send me a copy after you finish shooting."

As an excellent internet celebrity, Pham Huyen My had a very keen sense for traffic and related factors.

Her intuition told her that Li Qinghe's filming style and angles might also bring her considerable benefits.

"Brother Qinghe, have you registered your TT account?"

Pham Huyen My asked Li Qinghe about her arrangements with concern.

"It's already registered, but I mainly plan to post this video on my Kuaidou account within China."

"Brother Qinghe, don't say I don't take care of you! After the video is uploaded to my account, I'll @ your TT account, and you just wait for your followers to increase."

Pham Huyen My winked at Li Qinghe, sending a wave of charm.

"Then I'll thank you in advance." Li Qinghe said with a smile, taking Pham Huyen My's small hand.

"Brother Qinghe, seriously, I think this video might also help me gain some followers, but future shoots will need a slight adjustment."

Pham Huyen My's keen sense made her realize the traffic opportunity within it.

She planned to create an electronic girlfriend series for herself as well, portraying a charming girlfriend in front of the camera to give fans an immersive experience.

Pham Huyen My shared some of her ideas with Li Qinghe, which greatly inspired him.

He could also use these methods to film Nguyen Thi Linh and A Ying.

"A Mei, can I use these ideas of yours to film my other two girlfriends?"

The question Li Qinghe posed suddenly made the air solidify.
