9. Beep beep, Ye Shiyu level one alert!_2

Sakuragi Hitomi: "[Smile]"

Vice President Sakuragi, always quick to learn, yet unaware of the subtext behind that smile.

Yahashiki: "Vice President Sakuragi, don't follow the President and mess up the formation!"

Yahashiki: "@Yan Huan. Spill the beans, did I guess right?!"

Yan Huan: "I'm out having fun with the aunt who came to look for me at school yesterday; she's a friend of my parents."

Yahashiki: "Ah? Really?"

Sakuragi Hitomi: "[Smile]"

Yan Huan casually replied with a single sentence and locked his phone screen.

That Yahashiki guy, having played too many galgames, seems to have gleaned all the patterns.

But he's right, isn't he? Most guys wouldn't come to a place like this on the weekend unless accompanied by others.

Thinking this, he glanced at Ye Shiyu, who was standing by his side.

She had already made her way to the middle of the ocean tunnel, where there were many aquariums placed in a wide corridor that could fit two lanes of traffic, inhabited by a variety of smaller marine creatures for visitors to admire.

There were small fishes with different water temperature requirements, but even more so, there were jellyfishes of various shapes and forms.

The tall and elegant Ye Shiyu was standing in front of those aquariums, focusing her gaze on the jellyfish inside.

The tunnel wasn't very bright; there was some lighting provided near the tanks, but it was still dim, making the glowing contours of the jellyfish stand out even more.

Like fluorescent lights illuminating the night sky, turning into breathable stars that vigorously pulse and dance...

Those starlights flutter down, landing in Ye Shiyu's dark pupils, forming a living galaxy.

The everlasting galaxy flows incessantly, and as that girl's profile joined the view, Yan Huan noticed it as it rushed down the tunnel into his sight.

She really likes jellyfish.

Thinking so, Yan Huan chose not to disturb her concentration and went to look for Ye Lan instead.

Just as he turned his head, he saw Ye Lan holding up her phone towards him, softly saying,

"Xiao Huan, say cheese."

"Aunt Ye?"

Yan Huan was slightly startled, but Ye Lan had already lowered her phone with a smile, marvelling at the photo she had taken,

"Xiao Huan, this scene... you could totally be in a movie~."

"Ah?"

Yan Huan walked over to Ye Lan's side in a daze, looking at the photo she had opened.

He didn't know what model of phone Ye Lan used, but the focus didn't seem too dark, and the picture was very clear.

The light from above just graced his profile, illuminating his face and clearly defining the subject of the picture.

A handsome black-haired boy seems to tell a story of looking for someone in a crowd.

Yan Huan looked at the phone and then at the grinning Ye Lan, asking in a daze,

"Did you use a beauty filter, Aunt Ye?"

Ye Lan immediately pursed her lips in displeasure and tapped his head gently with her hand,

"It's just a filter, you silly boy. Don't you even know how you look?"

Of course, this was just a joke.

Yan Huan didn't have a habit of taking selfies, and wasn't very familiar with these things.

But even a person who rarely takes selfies or photos can find their own image in the camera somewhat unfamiliar.

Even if one looks in the mirror every day, they probably feel that there is a difference from their image in the photo.

"Look at this, so handsome, you would look even better if you smiled. Xiao Huan, you have a beautiful smile... next time I invest in a movie, I'll definitely invite you to star in it."

Ye Lan was very pleased with this photo and decided to save it.

Speaking of acting in movies, Yan Huan almost ended up joining a performance agency in Lin Gate to become a child star before middle school.

He tried everything to get out of the orphanage in the South District, especially when the orphanage was surrounded by the smell of smoke, and nearby high schools had daily STD panics...

Really, just talking about it could bring tears to one's eyes.

How did the song go?

A child without a mother is like a blade of grass~

Not wishing to dwell on the past, Yan Huan looked at Ye Lan who was touching her own chin, contemplating the photo angle, and suddenly said,

"Auntie, shall I take a picture of you and Sister Shiyu?"

"Huh? Oh, that'd be nice... Shiyu, come over for a photo!"

Hearing this, Ye Shiyu finally shifted her gaze from the jellyfish and looked over,

"Coming."

Ye Lan patted the spot next to her to have her come over, and then prepared to give the phone to Yan Huan.

Halfway through the handover, she suddenly pulled it back.

Yan Huan looked at her in confusion as she turned off the camera, then opened a beauty photo app, adjusted it casually, and handed the phone to Yan Huan.

"We need to use the beauty filter."

"..."

Actually, Yan Huan felt it was completely unnecessary, but he obliged to make Ye Lan happy.

Thus, he positioned Ye Lan and Ye Shiyu in the direction of the light and crouched down in front of the glass, which would give the women a height advantage in the camera's perspective.

Pedestrians behind them, noticing someone was taking a photo, also paused out of courtesy, which made for an opportune moment.

"Click."

The photo was taken.

In the frame, Ye Shiyu stood straight with an indifferent expression, while Ye Lan wrapped her arms around her. Considering Yan Huan's photography skills, it was quite an achievement.

Yan Huan let out a slight smile, stood up, and decided to commend his work beyond expectation,

"Perfect."

Ye Lan came over to take the phone, scrutinizing the photo,

"Mm, not bad, not bad..."

Just as Yan Huan was about to get up and continue forward with them, Ye Lan gently pulled him, bringing him next to Ye Shiyu.

"Come, Xiao Huan, stand with Shiyu, I'll take a picture of you two."

"Ah?"

Yan Huan's face changed slightly as he looked towards Ye Shiyu.
