Chapter 743: Master Of Photography (20)
Su Nanfeng frowned. He was still a photographer of Xinyu and Director Shang was his superior.
It was impossible for him to see Yu Xiaohan normally. There was always someone beside her.
Now, there was a chance… and he didn’t want to give it up.
Don’t look at how Director Shang was so amiable in front of Ming Shu and the artists and seemed so easy to talk to. In reality, when he turned around and faced his employees, he was really fierce.
“If you buy me snacks, I will help you make a call to Director Shang.” Ming Shu grabbed Su Nanfeng’s sleeve and smiled really brightly.
I can anger Wei Xu and earn snacks at the same time. Why not?
Su Nanfeng’s eyes lit up.
His words were not useful at all, but she could do it. He just needed to stay for a while, Director Shang would not get mad.
“Okay.”
Ming Shu took out her phone and called Director Shang.
Director Shang heard Ming Shu’s serious tone telling him that she wanted to teach her Junior Brother. He actually complimented her happily and expressed that they could stay for as long as they wanted.
Wei Xu’s expression got ugly. Her fingernails dug into her flesh, but she couldn’t feel anything.
Ming Shu hung up the call and gave Wei Xu a look. She closed her lips and smiled. Are you angry?
Wei Xu: “…”
This woman…
She did it on purpose.
“Wei Xu, do you need anything?” Su Nanfeng saw that Wei Xu was still not leaving so he asked her this.
“Nothing…”
Wei Xu was fearful of Ming Shu so she didn’t dare to provoke Ming Shu head on. She gave Su Nanfeng a sad and angry look before leaving unwillingly.
Wei Xu didn’t go far. She just waited outside the studio.
Su Nanfeng proactively went to help Ming Shu’s assistant. If he just stood there without doing anything, he would seem even more out of place.
For a new star of the entertainment industry, it was a rise in status for Yu Xiaohan when she managed to become the cover model for an issue of Xinyu Magazine.
Yu Xiaohan’s state was not good. The results were not good, either.
Su Nanfeng was really worried. He took out the things he prepared during break time. Yu Xiaohan just treated Su Nanfeng as a stranger. She thanked him in a polite and alienating tone.
Su Nanfeng couldn’t find any topics to talk to her about so he prepared to leave. Yu Xiaohan suddenly said,
“Why does she keep looking at me?”
She recognized Ming Shu. It was the person who took the really nice publicity photos for her. Someone asked her about the photographer for the publicity photos, but she didn’t know who it was. She only knew that the person was called Jiang Qiao.
She was afraid of provoking that person so she just said that she didn’t know who it was, only someone the production team hired.
However, she had been staring at her ever since the break started.
Su Nanfeng didn’t know what Ming Shu was looking at. She seemed to be looking at Yu Xiaohan, but she looked like she was in a daze too.
Just as Su Nanfeng was going to go over and ask her, he saw Ming Shu standing up and leaving the studio.
She came back with a bag of black feathers after a while. She asked the makeup artist to do a new makeup look for Yu Xiaohan. Then, she stuck the feathers on her hat.
“Come, let’s start.”
Yu Xiaohan looked at the mirror. She was not in a good state so no amount of makeup would cover her tired-looking face.
However, those feathers seemed to have magic in them.
The person in the mirror still looked tired but there was a vibe to her.
A decadent girl.
But not someone who was in low spirits…
It was hard to describe this feeling.
“Don’t have too much expression later… maintain your… tired face.” Ming Shu took her camera and walked in front.
Yu Xiaohan: “…”
Yu Xiaohan felt sorry that her mood affected other people’s jobs.
Hence, she tried her best to cooperate with Ming Shu and the shoot went on smoothly after that.
Ming Shu finished the last set and swung her sore arms. She passed the camera to her assistant.
Yu Xiaohan went to the dressing room to change clothes. She never looked at Su Nanfeng at all.
Su Nanfeng took the chance when everyone was packing up to ask Ming Shu for a copy of the photos.
By right, these kinds of photos could not be given to anyone, but Su Nanfeng was an upright male protagonist and there were snacks as a guarantee. Hence, Ming Shu gave them to him.
She said as she copies the photos, “You’re like a pervert.”
Su Nanfeng: “…”
He replied after a while, “I just want to guard her beautiful moments.”
“You can guard the beautiful moments, but you can’t prevent time from passing.” Ming Shu patted his shoulder and said earnestly, “Wonderful times are quite delicious. Buy one set for me.”
Su Nanfeng: “…”
–
Since Ming Shu had an assistant now, she didn’t need to edit photos personally anymore. Director Shang wanted to take a look at them first so Ming Shu asked the assistant to send them to Director Shang.
However, after a few minutes, Director Shang and the assistant came up.
Director Shang didn’t look happy and the assistant looked scared. The assistant carried the camera and shivered.
“Jiang Qiao, come with me.” Director Shang frowned and called Ming Shu.
Ming Shu looked at the assistant. The assistant pointed at the camera in fear and shook his head at Ming Shu.
The assistant seemed a little anxious as he couldn’t express himself clearly.
Ming Shu was too lazy to guess so she stood up and walked to one side with Director Shang.
“Jiang Qiao, why is there nothing in the camera at all? Where are the photos you took?”
Director Shang asked Ming Su directly. His tone was still all right and he didn’t burst with anger.
The assistant took the camera to find him, but there were no photos of Yu Xiaohan inside.
The assistant was most probably trying to tell her that there were no photos inside just now.
When she copied them to Su Nanfeng just now, she was sure that she didn’t delete anything. Why did they disappear?
Ming Shu asked the assistant to bring the camera over. She examined it herself. There was indeed no photos of Yu Xiaohan inside.
“What would you say about this?”
Ming Shu looked up Director Shang. “I am sure that I took the photos.”
Director Shang nodded his head. “I never said that you didn’t. But where are the photos now?”
Although Yu Xiaohan was not a big shot and they could find a time to take the shoot again, it would leave an unprofessional impression on other people and it was not good for Xinyu.
Ming Shu asked the assistant, “Who did you meet just now?”
“I… I went down to find Director Shang directly. Oh, I met a girl at the elevator door… I don’t know what her name is. She sprained her knee so I held her up. Then, I went to find Director Shang.” The assistant spoke hurriedly.
Ming Shu asked again, “Did you leave the camera out of your sight at any moment?”
The assistant said, “Er… she didn’t have any medicine in her office so I went to the office opposite to borrow some. I took some time to find the medicine. However, when I came back, she was gone. I put down the medicine, took the camera, and left.”
Director Shang noticed something. He asked curiously, “You mean that someone deleted the photos?”
“If not? Do you think that the photos will grow wings and fly away themselves? We are not allowed to become demons after the founding of the nation.”
She paused for a moment before continuing. “The person came from your company. Director Shang, let’s look at the surveillance cameras.”
Director Shang’s expression looked even worse than just now. Someone in the company dares to do this?
Director Shang immediately called someone and got the surveillance images.
It was similar to what the assistant said. He met an employee at the door of the elevator and helped her to the office.
There was no surveillance camera in the office, but they could see that when the assistant left the office, he didn’t have the camera with him.
As for that employee, she left the office a minute later. She seemed to be in a hurry as if she needed to deal with some emergency.
