243: Chapter 243: Don’t Play Innocent After Taking Advantage of Big Sister!

Awkwardness nonstop!

The photographer didn’t know Tang Xiao and Wu Jie had a fake marriage.

So, he simply followed the standard procedure, directing the two of them as he would any other newlywed couple.

So…

Holding hands was okay, but they needed to gaze at each other tenderly, with nuanced expressions.

Wu Jie’s acting was on point, but Tang Xiao was getting annoyed.

“Let’s take a break!

I’m too tired!”

“Alright!

We’ll move to the next setting, and you two can take it slow!”

Wu Jie called a halt to the shoot and got Tang Xiao a bottle of water.

When the photographer and his assistant left, Tang Xiao immediately complained:

“Taking wedding photos is such a hassle!

My face is about to freeze from smiling!”

Wu Jie muttered, “Can fake compare to real?

If we really were a newlywed couple, just imagine how sweet the cooperation would be.

Not like us—I’m worried for you!”

Tang Xiao gave Wu Jie a cold sidelong glance, “Expecting me to look at you with deep affection and a smile, pretending to be happy, I…

I just can’t!”

Wu Jie humphed, “You’ve gotten used to being a domineering CEO, always with that cold face.

Even your laugh is that professional, insincere smile, all skin-deep!”

“Then what should we do?

I’m really trying my best here!”

“Later, when we take the photos, just think of happy times from the past!

Like winning the grand military competition or those fond memories of joking around with comrades…”

“Alright!

I’ll try my best!”

Wu Jie stood up to call the photographer back and knelt on one knee in front of the green screen, holding a bouquet of flowers.

Tang Xiao took several deep breaths and, holding up her skirt, approached Wu Jie.

“Great!

Bride, tilt your head slightly down, add a little shyness and surprise, yes, curl the corners of your lips a bit, look more affectionate…”

Click click click~

After taking several shots, the photographer smiled, “That was good just now.

Groom, you can get up and give the flowers to the bride!”

“Stand face to face, bride, look up slightly, wrap your arms around the groom’s neck!

Gaze near the groom’s forehead, soft eyes!”

“Add a smile, like the sweetness of your first date…

a bit more blissful…”

“Groom, put your arms around the bride’s lower back, slowly lower your head, look at her chin, a bit closer…

even closer…”

…

Tang Xiao smiled as she gazed at Wu Jie, watching him come closer and closer.

She was really struggling to maintain her composure!

“Think of your first date, that sweet bashfulness and nervousness…

hold that expression!”

The photographer didn’t take the shot immediately but had his assistant quickly adjust Tang Xiao’s dress.

The two stood as if they were under a spell, not daring to move.

“Oh my!”

Suddenly, the photographer exclaimed.

Tang Xiao subconsciously wanted to turn her head to look, but in that instant…

They touched.

In that moment, Tang Xiao’s surprise was involuntary, resembling the shy demureness of a young girl caught off guard.

The photographer had done it on purpose!

He capitalized on that instant, clicking away vigorously.

After finishing, the photographer smiled, “That was very good just now.

The photos will turn out great.

Go change into another outfit, and let’s get ready for the traditional Chinese shoot!”

As the photographer and assistant left, Tang Xiao immediately pushed Wu Jie away, her gaze turning icy.

“How can you blame me?

It was the photographer who did it on purpose.

Besides, I didn’t even move—it was you who touched me!”

Tang Xiao snorted, “Don’t act all innocent after taking advantage!

It was just a touch on the lips, I’m not that petty!”

“Then why the cold face?

Who owes you money?”

“I just didn’t expect the photographer to use such tricks, quite unexpected!”

Picking up her skirt, Tang Xiao left straightaway.

In a short while, they changed into bright red traditional attire and arrived at a photoshoot set styled like an ancient study.

Inkstones, brushes, paper, and inksticks, chess, paintings—all sorts of props were present.

“Groom, sit on the Taishi Chair with one leg crossed over the other, pick up the tobacco pipe and act all content!”

“Bride, stand beside him, looking fierce and ready to pull his ear!”

No sooner had the photographer finished speaking than Tang Xiao laughed.

“A fierce expression?

That, I’m quite good at!”

Just as they got into position, Tang Xiao firmly grabbed Wu Jie’s ear.

“Holy smoke!

Bride, don’t yank so hard!

Got used to doing that at home, have you?”

The photographer joked.

Wu Jie glanced sideways with a wry smile, “Are you trying to get back at me?”

“Hmph!

You think you can take advantage and not pay a price?” Tang Xiao responded coldly.

While the couple bantered, the photographer seized the moment—expressions in check, he snapped away.

Then, Wu Jie walked over and sat down at the desk, while Tang Xiao hunched over beside him, grinding ink.

“Bride, look at the paper with curiosity and admiration!”

Wu Jie muttered, “Hear that?

You’re supposed to admire your brother!”

“Admire my ass!”

Though she cursed, her eyes, movements, and expressions still followed the photographer’s directions.

Next set!

Now it was Tang Xiao’s turn to sit down, while Wu Jie manually guided her in writing.

“You teaching writing?

That posture is all wrong, misleading the youth is more like it!”

“It’s just for posing, cut the crap!

Hurry up, serious face!”

…

Series after series of different poses, and by the time they were done, it was already midnight.

They grabbed a working meal while making an initial selection of photos.

Other newlyweds take their photo selections seriously, agonizing over the too-beautiful and too-happy pictures, but having too few that they can print.

Tang Xiao, on the other hand, breezed through them as if she were window-shopping and was done in no time.

“I thought you were going to delete all the kissing shots!”

“Delete them?

Why would I?

Then I’d be at a loss for nothing!”

Wu Jie laughed, “Just a peck on the lips, it’s like the stars acting in movies, not even an open mouth!”

“So you’re saying, you wanted to open mouth?”

“Had the thought, but I was afraid you’d start a fight with me, so I let it go!”

Tang Xiao huffed heavily, “Hurry up and eat, we’ve got more outdoor shots in the afternoon!”

After lunch.

Many couples descended the stairs together, boarding the photography company’s bus, heading collectively to the suburban photo base.

On the way there, other couples held hands, cuddled together, happy as could be.

Wu Jie and Tang Xiao…

slept!

The photo base was located inside a villa community, with a villa rented out for storage and a makeup room.

Once they picked out clothing and got ready, they followed the photographer to various places like the lakeside, pavilions, and rockeries within the community to take pictures.

Different outfits, different compositions and poses, different shooting locations…

It was extremely busy and utterly exhausting.

At dusk.

The setting sun stained the clouds red, casting a glow over the sprawling golf course.

The photographer had Wu Jie lift Tang Xiao for the final set of photos, concluding the session at last.

“Didn’t think it would be so troublesome and tiring!

Hmph, next time I get married, I’m absolutely not doing wedding photos!”

Tang Xiao’s mutterings instantly stunned the photographer and his assistant.

Next time get married?

What exactly was the situation with this couple?

Both staring blankly at Wu Jie, but he said nothing, as if it didn’t concern him.

Once shooting was done!

As for the photos…

why bother choosing?

Let the staff handle it as they pleased.

The two made a beeline for dinner and then got on the bus to sleep, waiting idly by.

And they waited until nine o’clock.

Other newlyweds, after selecting their photos and having dinner, came back still full of energy.

Some posted on social media showing off their love, some discussed which photo to use for the welcome banner, others debated wedding decorations and hotel arrangements…

Meanwhile, Wu Jie and Tang Xiao were already snuggled up together, fast asleep.

In their sleep.

Wu Jie dreamed of bantering with a woman as beautiful as a flower.

“You jerk?

What are you doing?”

A harsh scolding suddenly exploded…
