Chapter 46: The “Big” Sister’s Invitation
At 6 PM, the sky outside the window gradually darkened.
In the master bedroom, Lin Shen took a light sip of his now-cold coffee, only then noticing that four whole hours had passed!
“So fast!”
Lin Shen stretched lazily. After snapping out of his “absolute focus” state, he found that aside from his body being slightly stiff, there were no other side effects.
In fact, his mind felt exceptionally clear.
On his laptop, a thirty-plus page business plan was largely complete.
From market analysis to business models, from product service systems to operational strategies.
These professional things would have taken the old Lin Shen at least a week to figure out.
However, with the [Focus Pills], he had written it all in one afternoon.
“This little pill is really something.”
Lin Shen repeatedly examined the pill bottle in his hand, marveling inwardly.
Could it be used for anything?
That would mean…
As if thinking of something, Lin Shen chuckled and carefully placed the pill bottle in the master bedroom drawer.
He planned to refine the business plan a bit more, then send it to Qin Yuenan tomorrow for her to review.
At that moment, Gu Wanqing sent her dinner photo right on time.
[Gu Wanqing: Photo.jpg]
[Gu Wanqing: Lin Shen gege! Look at the buns I made, aren’t they cute? (ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ)]
[Lin Shen: They are pretty cute]
Lin Shen smiled warmly.
Ever since Gu Wanqing returned home, she’d been sharing all sorts of daily life with him like daily reports.
From small things like what she had for dinner to big things like going out shopping with classmates, each chat session came with cute emoticons.
This gave Lin Shen a sense of long-lost youthful vitality from her, as if he had become several years younger himself.
[Lin Shen: My dinner isn’t as lavish as yours]
Lin Shen sent Gu Wanqing a photo of his homemade diet dinner, immediately getting her instant reply.
[Gu Wanqing: Lin Shen gege is so disciplined! Can I ask you for a favor?]
[Lin Shen: What is it?]
[Gu Wanqing: Send me a photo of your abs (/ω＼)]
Huh?
Lin Shen was somewhat confused.
First, he hadn’t expected Gu Wanqing to ask him for ab photos, and second, he hadn’t expected that he would one day be asked for ab photos!
This sense of achievement from having his hard work recognized by others made Lin Shen feel quite pleased.
So he immediately went to the bathroom, lifted his shirt slightly, and took a test shot.
Although it wasn’t as exaggerated as those online photos with eight-pack abs that could be used as washboards, the faintly visible four-pack outline was still quite impressive.
‘This should be the endpoint of doing sit-ups for abs, right?’
Lin Shen thought silently.
‘To get more perfect results, I’d probably need to go to a gym for systematic continuous training.’
[Lin Shen: Photo.jpg]
[Lin Shen: I don’t really have abs]
[Gu Wanqing: Already amazing! Thank you, brother-in-law!]
On the other end of the phone, Gu Wanqing was lying on her bed, hugging her phone and rolling around frantically, her pretty cheeks flushed with an inexplicable blush, giggling like a lovesick fool.
“Wow! Brother-in-law’s abs! So sexy!”
“This girl.”
Lin Shen shook his head with an amused smile, then lay on his bed and began studying the [Album Camera] APP he had unlocked yesterday.
He had never been involved in photography before, so he wasn’t quite sure what “20% improvement in photography skills” meant.
Could it be improving composition and post-processing abilities?
Or understanding and operation of cameras?
Lin Shen walked to the balcony. The moment he took out his phone and aimed it at the sunset, many ingenious ideas suddenly popped into his mind.
Click—!
A bird flew by with spread wings, blending with the deep orange twilight in the background. The composition combining movement and stillness looked extremely beautiful.
When Lin Shen saw this photo on his phone, he was slightly surprised.
So that’s how it works?
The improvement in photography skills was actually capturing ability?
“Not bad!”
Lin Shen felt it was time to reward himself with a camera, so he searched extensively on Xiaohongshu and Douyin.
But most photographers talked about all sorts of things, and their words contained many photography-specific terms that were hard to understand.
Moreover, Lin Shen always felt that these people more or less had sponsorship deals with camera brands, often showing obvious subjective bias.
This left him unsure of what to do.
“This is tricky.”
Lin Shen sighed lightly, then suddenly remembered someone.
That’s right!
I remember Senior Jiang Wan does part-time cosplay, right?
She must know something about photography, or know photographers who take pictures for her.
“I’ll ask her.”
Lin Shen took out his phone, found Jiang Wan’s WeChat, and sent her a message after years of silence.
[Lin Shen: Senior Jiang Wan, are you there?]
[Jiang Wan: Senior Jiang Wan isn’t here, but Jiang Wan is]
Lin Shen was momentarily stunned, then suddenly remembered that he had previously promised Jiang Wan not to call her “senior,” which was too distant.
So he immediately replied.
[Lin Shen: Sorry Jiang Wan, it’s a habit]
[Jiang Wan: I was joking, don’t mind it. What’s up?]
[Lin Shen: I wanted to ask about cameras. Do you have any recommendations for beginner novices?]
[Jiang Wan: You want to learn photography?]
[Lin Shen: Yes]
[Jiang Wan: Is it to photograph cute young ladies?]
[Lin Shen: Not at all!]
Lin Shen hurried to explain and emphasize.
He felt that Jiang Wan’s playful personality was somewhat like Gu Wanqing’s, but without that tender innocence.
Instead, she was like a big sister with a broad, tolerant heart, teasing a younger brother!
Indeed quite big.
Recalling Jiang Wan’s voluptuous fullness, Lin Shen couldn’t help but feel heat rising within.
[Lin Shen: I just want to develop a personal hobby]
[Jiang Wan: You really know how to pick. Photography is quite an expensive hobby. What’s your expected price range for a camera?]
[Lin Shen: Around 30,000 yuan]
Lin Shen considered it. With his current savings of 400,000 yuan, spending 30,000 on a camera was definitely acceptable.
With daily income of 10,000, he’d earn it back in three days.
But Jiang Wan didn’t reply for a while, only responding after a moment.
[Jiang Wan: Lin Shen little brother, looks like you’ve made quite a bit of money since graduation! A 30,000 yuan camera isn’t something ordinary families can afford. Are you sure?]
[Lin Shen: Yes]
[Jiang Wan: Alright, you’ve given me a tough problem. I could recommend something in the thousands range, but a 30,000 yuan camera is too expensive, I don’t dare speak carelessly]
[Jiang Wan: How about this, I have an appointment with a photographer tomorrow for a shoot. If you’re free, want to meet up? I’ll have the professional give you recommendations]
Meet up?
Lin Shen didn’t think much about it and immediately agreed.
Hesitating for even a second would be disrespectful to big… breasts!
[Lin Shen: Sure, where?]
[Jiang Wan: I’ll send you an address later. Tomorrow morning at 9, don’t stand me up]
[Lin Shen: Okay]
After making plans with Jiang Wan, Lin Shen lay on his bed slightly dazed, with a hint of anticipation in his heart.
