Chapter 315: Chapter 131: Fortune Is Easy to Acquire, but a True Confidante Is Hard to Find

"You’re welcome. If you need anything, feel free to ask me."

"..."

The female staff member left and kindly closed the door for them.

Nanaz looked around.

This scene and setup, how should I put it, it feels strangely familiar.

"Snap!"

Su Zelin turned on the fill light.

The dim yellow light created an even more intense atmosphere.

It instantly reminded Ding Linna.

Ah, this is like those little movies that guys love watching. The scene seems to be just like this.

She had also curiously downloaded such films, so she wasn’t unfamiliar.

"Nanaz, let’s start, speed it up, you go change clothes first!"

The thug cleared his throat, pretending to be serious, and managed to fool Ding Linna.

Maybe I’m overthinking it. The class monitor isn’t that kind of person.

The studio’s costumes and props were indeed abundant.

With Su Zelin’s assistance, Nanaz first dressed up as a Western cowgirl.

A full denim outfit, a pair of small leather boots, and a sunhat made her look wild and spicy.

After changing into other women’s clothes, the style shifted.

Republican era rich young lady, office worker, urban beauty, innocent lady...

"Not bad, not bad, now let’s shoot the final set!"

As they neared the end of the shoot, Su Zelin finally opened that mysterious backpack.

Ding Linna came over to take a look and was dumbfounded.

This wasn’t a prop; it was clearly Pandora’s box—it was too wicked!

"This... isn’t this a bit much?"

Nanaz blushed.

"No worries, it’s all art!"

Su Zelin’s deep voice sounded like the devil’s whisper.

Nanaz seemed bewitched instantly: "Well... okay."

The thug was very excited; in his previous life, he’d often come across similar personal experiences shared selflessly by enthusiasts on some websites’ literary sections, and he had long wanted to try it once.

For the next set of photos, Teacher Su went all out, using his best techniques from the bottom of the box.

At least a dozen angles and poses, close-ups, push-pull shake-shift, start-stop-drop, scene shifting, surrounding tactics, hidden strategies, strategic deception, surprise maneuvers, feints, reverse strategies...

"Click, click, click, click..."

The digital camera’s shutter was constantly clicking.

An hour later, the door opened again, and they walked out.

The female staff, upon seeing their appearance, couldn’t help but be a bit surprised.

Just taking indoor photos, was it so exhausting that both of them were drenched in sweat?

...

On the bus ride back to the dorm, the two fell unusually silent, and Nanaz, rare to be ladylike, played with her clothing as if lost in thought after boarding.

Teacher Su also felt a bit embarrassed.

Perhaps they had gone a bit overboard.

Until a certain stop, the silence was finally broken.

"Hey, Bro Three, Nanaz!"

When Hu Xu suddenly appeared in front of him, Su Zelin was caught off guard.

Damn, this guy is way too elusive!

Having met Ah Xi at a train station, now met on a bus.

Hu Xu glanced at Su Zelin, then at Ding Linna beside him, with a teasing look in his eyes: "You two..."

Ding Linna was also taken aback.

She subconsciously said, "There’s nothing between the class monitor and me!"

Indeed, there was nothing, yet after the last round of photos, she felt a bit guilty for some reason.

Su Zelin was speechless.

Nanaz, why is your acting just as bad as Ah Xi’s?!

"Whoa, Lao Wu, the world is so small, I thought it was a coincidence meeting Nanaz on the bus, but didn’t expect to bump into you too!"

The Oscar-winning performance played out once more.

Full of emotions, utterly realistic!

"Yeah, yeah, the world sure is small!"

Ding Linna quickly chimed in.

This sounded very familiar, Hu Xu was puzzled.

"Got it, got it..."

Lao Wu had a knowing smile on his face.

Back at school, it was said Ah Xi got Nanaz cheated on, and now Nanaz cheated back.

They are really good sisters!

Thinking of something, Hu Xu added, "Ah, by the way, let me introduce you, this is Cen Jing from our social welfare club; the club had an event today, and we’re visiting the children’s orphanage together!"

It was only then that the two noticed the girl following behind Hu Xu.

Su Zelin recognized her instantly.

It was Lao Wu’s wife in his previous life.

When they got married, he personally arranged a dozen or so good cars from Shenghai and drove the wedding car for Hu Xu.

Because the girl’s family was better off, it was necessary to impress for Lao Wu.

Cen Jing wasn’t exactly beautiful, but she looked just like the gentle wife and good mother type.

Finding a girl like her meant Hu Xu was truly lucky.

But Lao Wu deserved it. Despite his modest family background, he was devoted, treated his wife well, and they worked together, buying a house in Ba Yu, bringing his parents over, later having a lovely child, living happily with three generations under one roof.

Hu Xu also introduced the two to Cen Jing: "These are my roommates and class monitor, Su Zelin, and that’s Ding Linna from the same class!"

"Hello!"

Cen Jing nodded slightly towards the two.

"Hi!"

Su Zelin and Ding Linna nodded back in response. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"Hey, Bro Three, why are you carrying a big backpack?"

Hu Xu wondered greatly.

"Nothing much!"

Nanaz hurriedly held onto the backpack, afraid Hu Xu might open it out of curiosity.

Lao Wu was even more puzzled, wasn’t this Bro Three’s backpack? Why was Nanaz so nervous?

Acting like Pandora’s box, as if opening it would unleash evil onto the world.

But he didn’t ask further, and the four chatted in the front and rear rows.

Soon Nanaz was back to her lively self as if nothing had happened.

Thus, they returned to the finance institute and went their separate ways back to the dorms.

"Bro Three, you’re quite the player, first Ah Xi, then Nanaz, all the class flowers have been picked by you!"

Once the two girls left, Hu Xu chuckled.

"It’s nothing, they’re all just female friends!"

Su Zelin remained unflappable.

"Hmm, female friends, right, female friends!"

Hu Xu’s face was written with an ’I know’ expression.

The two walked back to the dorm side by side; others were puzzled.

"Lao Wu, didn’t you go to the social welfare club event this morning, and wasn’t Bro Three out for fun, how come you’re back together?"

Feng Zhongliang asked casually.

"Ran into Bro Three on the bus!"

Hu Xu laughed.

"Bro Three, Bro Five, you guys are too fated, meeting off a train at the start of school, now bumping on the bus, why not form a Bro Three-Five combo!"

Cai Wensheng jokingly said.

"That’s not gonna work!" Zeng Kaiping objected: "Bro Three is my master, if Hu Xu and he formed a Bro Three-Five combo, wouldn’t I also gain a senior master uncle!"

After chatting casually, each went about their own business.

Hu Xu didn’t mention running into Nanaz; Lao Wu was still very reliable—gossipy but never loose-lipped.

Su Zelin had just sat down, hadn’t even warmed his seat, when the message tone of Nokia 8210 chimed.

Nanaz: "Class monitor, make sure Hu Xu doesn’t go around blabbering!"

Su Zelin immediately replied: "Nanaz, don’t worry, he won’t!"

"Alright, oh, right, I had a great time today, thanks a lot!"

"Haha, no need to thank me, I should be thanking you for letting me have a creative masterpiece!"

"Also, those last photos we took, don’t let anyone see!"

"Got it, how could I?!"

Nanaz, you’re really overthinking, how could I let anyone else see these kinds of photos?

I’m not as selfless as those fellows in the XX island’s image section.

Finished the text conversation with Nanaz.

Opened the computer, connected the data cable, found the hidden folder in D drive, and copied the last set into it.

Then deleted everything in the camera, squeaky clean.

Glancing around to make sure no one was watching, Su Zelin browsed through them one by one.

The seventeen-inch monitor was far more comfortable than the small preview screen of the digital camera.

He could zoom in on details with the mouse at will.

The thug watched with great interest.

Hmm, Bro’s performance exceeded expectations this time, these shots turned out really well.

Very clear, every detail visible.

After indulging for over ten minutes, Su Zelin finally hid the folder again, erased the view history, since sometimes others might use his machine—better safe than sorry.

Rest assured, Nanaz.

These photos are purely for personal collection!

I definitely won’t take the computer for repairs!
