Dark Light Chaser.

Is Chapter 66 a good idea?

When Fang Xiaoxiao ran up to Ma Yu and stood on tiptoe to comfort him, Yue Qihua came to Yang Xingyue's side and whispered in her ear, "Have you bought the things?"

Yang Xingyue touched her pocket, blushed, and nodded.

It's obvious that her departure with Fang Xiaoxiao wasn't just a simple matter of going to the restroom.

Fang Xiaoxiao pulled the dejected Ma Yu to the group and pointed to the selfie booth not far away, saying, "We've come all this way, how about we all take a picture together?"

Fang Xiaoxiao was about to ride the drop tower, and since she didn't have to go on it, she was fully focused on the ride, unlike Yang Xingyue, whose legs were already trembling.

Upon hearing that there was another opportunity to stall for time, Yang Xingyue immediately expressed her support, much like a primary school student pretending to be sick before an exam.

"We don't get many chances to get together and have fun, so let's take a picture to remember this moment!"

After Yang Xingyue finished speaking, she took Yue Qihua and Fang Xiaoxiao's hands and walked towards the photo booth machine.

Ai Liang and Ma Yu, who remained where they were, exchanged a glance. Ma Yu shrugged helplessly, and the two had no choice but to follow in their footsteps.

There are very few straight men who are interested in taking photos. If there are, most of them are just playboys who use their own photos as bait to persuade their girlfriends to share photos while chatting with them.

So while the girls played and frolicked inside, Ai Liang and Ma Yu sat on chairs outside waiting.

They showed absolutely no intention of going in.

Ai Liang simply dislikes taking photos and subconsciously avoids surveillance cameras when walking. Ma Yu, on the other hand, is dragged by Fang Xiaoxiao to be her photographer every day and has absolutely no interest in taking pictures.

Neither of the two grown men intended to go in, but the girls wouldn't let them have their way.

Ten minutes later, Yue Qihua opened the door and poked her head out: "Ai Liang, Ma Yu, come in quickly and take a group photo!"

"Sister Hua, can five people fit in such a small place...?"

Ma Yu looked at the machine, which was only a few steps wide, and raised questions.

"If you don't want to come in, that's fine. Ai Liang, come over here."

Yue Qihua decisively shoved Ma Yu aside.

Anyway, Ma Yu was just casually invited, like the experience materials in a ten-pull gacha. It doesn't matter whether you get them or not; getting the character card is a success.

Yue Qihua did not hesitate to use force, directly dragging Ai Liang into the machine.

Ai Liang did not resist at all during this time, which surprised Yue Qihua.

In the past, if Ai Liang didn't want to do something, even eight people carrying a sedan chair couldn't persuade him. Just like when Yang Xingyue invited him to her home for dinner last time, she refused without leaving any room for negotiation and was very decisive in her refusal.

Ai Liang's personality has really changed a lot.

Looking at Ai Liangyue Qihua leaning against the corner, she thought to herself.

So, has Ai Liang changed? Yes, but not by much.

In Ai Liang's eyes, barring any unforeseen circumstances, this was likely the last time she would gather with these people.

Just like terminally ill patients who have less than a month to live, most doctors will tell them to eat whatever they want.

I'm about to be separated from my few friends by the ends of the earth, so it wouldn't hurt to go along with their wishes a little.

Yue Qihua looked at Ma Yu, who was hesitating at the door, and said, "Are you coming or not? If you're not coming, you'll be on the drop tower with us later."

Everyone was taking pictures inside, but Ma Yu was the only one being ostracized outside, which was really pitiful. Yue Qihua deliberately gave him a way out.

"Come!"

Upon hearing about the drop tower, Ma Yu immediately squeezed through the door crack.

Five people stood inside the cramped machine, almost shoulder to shoulder.

If they stand side by side, it's difficult for the camera to capture all five people in one shot.

However, Yue Qihua came up with a solution.

Ai Liang and Ma Yu stood behind the three of them. Ma Yu picked up Fang Xiaoxiao (otherwise, he could only take a picture of half of Fang Xiaoxiao's head), Ai Liang hugged Yang Xingyue, and stood between Fang Xiaoxiao and Yang Xingyue.

However, during the arrangement process, it was still impossible to include all of them in the photo.

Ai Liang, who had been playing the role of being mute the whole time, glanced at her phone. She wondered how much more time would be wasted if she kept fiddling with it like this.

"Let's leave it at that."

Ai Liang's sudden voice startled the group, but what was even more frightening was yet to come.

pat, pat.

Ai Liang hugged Yang Xingyue and Yue Qihua together from both sides, so that the five of them could be in the same frame.

He did this because he knew the two girls didn't mind physical contact with him.

"Ai Liang! You..."

'Idiot! What if Xingyue misunderstands!'

Yue Qihua was extremely anxious.

She was so frightened by Ai Liang's bold actions that she couldn't speak. She tried several times to break free from Ai Liang's embrace, but her body remained obediently in his arms and didn't want to leave, so she couldn't muster any strength.

When Yue Qihua cautiously looked at Yang Xingyue, the other woman, apart from blushing slightly, did not have the resentful look she had expected.

"Hmm? Huahua, hurry up and press the shutter!"

Yang Xingyue noticed Yue Qihua's gaze, but simply urged her to take the picture, without showing any dissatisfaction or jealousy.

'You're incredibly carefree!'

Yue Qihua didn't know where to begin complaining.

"Sister Hua, hurry up! Although she's small, it's tiring to carry her like this all the time."

Ma Yu held Fang Xiaoxiao around the waist, trying to lift her up as much as possible. Although Fang Xiaoxiao also wrapped her arms around his neck, her left hand was bearing the weight of dozens of kilograms and couldn't hold on for long.

Fang Xiaoxiao freed one hand and grabbed Ma Yu's ear, shouting, "Am I that heavy?!"

"It's not heavy! It's not heavy! Little darling, stop swaying your waist, I can hardly hold you anymore!"

Amidst the chaos, Yue Qihua gritted her teeth and pressed the shutter.

The final result of the photo is as follows.

Ma Yu, wearing a mask of pain, had his ear grabbed by the adorably fierce Fang Xiaoxiao. Yang Xingyue blushed and looked down at the ground. Yue Qihua glanced at Yang Xingyue nervously. Ai Liang remained expressionless as usual, but the corners of her mouth were slightly curved as if she were smiling.

As soon as the photos were taken, everyone burst out laughing.

In fact, photos like these are more meaningful than staged ones.

"Let's get out, let's get out, it's so stuffy in here."

Yue Qihua was the first to rush out after receiving the photo.

Fang Xiaoxiao clung to Ma Yu and refused to get off, taking it as punishment for Ma Yu's earlier harsh words.

Just as Ai Liang was about to follow him out, Yang Xingyue suddenly grabbed his sleeve.

"Wait a minute! Ai Liang... I have something to give you..."

At this moment, Yang Xingyue was like a third-class private sent by his superior to clear a minefield while facing a bomber on the battlefield, his face flushed with determination.

Although Yang Xingyue was only holding onto the hem of her clothes, she held on very tightly. Ai Liang took a step forward, trying to break free from her hand, but instead caused her to stumble.

Is she planning to confess her feelings here?

Ai Liang sensed something was wrong.

Outside the machine.

Yue Qihua was panting heavily, as if trying to calm her tense emotions.

Upon seeing Ma Yu and Fang Xiaoxiao, she deliberately exclaimed, "Honestly, it's so hot in there! Couldn't the designer have made the machine a little bigger...?"

Fang Xiaoxiao was still pinching Ma Yu's cheek, but after hearing this, she jumped down from Ma Yu's arms and walked to Yue Qihua's side.

"Sister Hua...is this really okay?"

Fang Xiaoxiao stared at Yue Qihua and asked.

Yue Qihua paused for a moment, then fanned herself with her hand to change the subject: "After all, the machine is only so big, and filming it again probably wouldn't be much better. This is fine..."

"Sister Hua, you know I'm not talking about photos." Fang Xiaoxiao didn't agree with her as usual, but instead repeated her words: "Is this really okay?"

Yue Qihua slowly lowered her hand, which was fanning her, until it stopped moving.
