Chapter 407: Chapter 408: Second Brother’s Advice

"Little sister, you are a grown woman now."

"Although Yicheng and Cheng Hao are almost like your elder brother, they are not blood-related after all."

"Little sister, you are attractive, and there are certainly those bad men with ulterior motives out there; don’t be deceived by someone’s sweet words,"

Xu Nianhua lay in bed, staring into the dark dormitory, thinking about the advice her second brother had quietly given her as he was leaving, which left her both amused and frustrated. She wasn’t a three-year-old child; how could she be deceived by some sweet words?

She pondered for a long time, not understanding why her second brother suddenly said that.

...

"Yicheng, thank you for going out of your way to take me back," Xu Nian’an had repeatedly said there was no need to escort him, he could wait for the shuttle bus, but Pei Yicheng had insisted on driving him, stopping the car right next to him, making it impossible for Xu Nian’an to refuse.

"We’re brothers, there’s no need to be so formal."

Pei Yicheng patted his shoulder and said, "Nian’an, if you encounter any troubles, just speak up."

"Thank you, Yicheng."

Xu Nian’an always felt that Pei Yicheng had an ulterior motive, as if he intended to elope with his younger sister. He thought about bringing up his sister’s matter for a long time, but then felt it inappropriate; after all, Yicheng hadn’t mentioned it himself. Wouldn’t it be exactly like stirring things up if he brought it up?

After all, he had already advised his younger sister to keep some distance from men, and not to get too close to Yicheng.

His sister had become increasingly attractive, and he wondered what kind of man would deserve her?

Unexpectedly, Pei Yicheng’s face flashed before Xu Nian’an’s eyes.

"Nian’an, hurry back to school, and remember to call me next time you go to Beining University," Pei Yicheng urged repeatedly.

"Okay."

Xu Nian’an verbally agreed, but he was thinking that he must not trouble others in the future; he wanted to visit his sister and didn’t need to depend on Pei Yicheng. He could take the shuttle bus by himself.

...

"Nianhua, this stuff should be enough to develop hundreds of photos," Pei Yining watched as Xu Nianhua bought a pile of photo developing supplies. It was as if she wanted to buy all the developer liquid in the store.

"This stuff doesn’t expire, better to buy more."

Xu Nianhua had previously made quite a bit of money translating documents, plus Ji Ying was worried about Xu Nianhua and Xu Nian’an, her brother and sister duo being outside, they might need some emergency cash. When coming to Beining, Ji Ying had stuffed them with quite a bit of money, so Xu Nianhua was not short on cash.

Having used so many of Pei Yining’s films before, buying extra developer was her way of contributing.

"Yining, you promised to let me help when developing the photos; I’ve never seen how it’s done," Xu Nianhua subtly changed the subject while having the shop owner prepare all the supplies needed for photo development, unless the owner had taken out all their inventory.

"Sure, as long as you don’t mind it being boring," Pei Yining loved photography, and even more the sense of achievement that came from turning each film into photos.

"How could I?"

Xu Nianhua was too curious; when she followed Pei Yining into the pitch-dark darkroom, ready to develop the photos, it was indeed devoid of any light.

Pei Yining explained some technical terms, which Xu Nianhua didn’t understand but followed Pei Yining’s procedures.

When she saw each photo appearing from her hands, Pei Yining excitedly exclaimed, "Yining, you’re really amazing! Looking at these photos, I feel like I’ve become a master!"

"Hahaha~"

Pei Yining immediately burst into laughter, saying, "That’s one of the reasons why I love photography!"
