I was criticized on a dating reality show, but I retaliated and became an internet sensation.

The photographer pressed the shutter button, and after a few clicks, glanced down at the finished product and nodded in satisfaction.

"Great, excellent! That's exactly how it feels!"

"One more set, let's change positions. Ms. Qi, take a step forward and shift half a body length away from Ms. Shu..."

The two did as instructed, and the shutter clicked repeatedly, the photographer becoming increasingly excited as he took more pictures:

"Yes, yes, yes! That's the feeling! Teacher Shu, make your eyes a little colder—yes! Teacher Qi, add a slight smile to your lips—good! Perfect!"

The set was changed three times and the costumes were changed four times. The whole shoot lasted for nearly three and a half hours.

After finishing the last set of photos, the photographer put down his camera, let out a long sigh, and his face was full of satisfaction:

"The two teachers have such great chemistry. I don't need to do much editing on this set of photos; they can be sent directly for printing."

Qi Yu immediately turned to look at Shu Zi, her eyes crinkling with a smile: "It's all thanks to Teacher Shu's excellent guidance."

Shu Zi waved her hand, turning back to say as she walked towards the styling room:

"No, no, no, don't flatter me. You're naturally gifted; I just benefited from your good looks."

After saying that, she laughed and walked briskly into the styling room.

She sat down in front of the makeup mirror and began to remove her makeup and change clothes.

As Fang Zhizi followed her in carrying her coat and bag, Lan Manwen also walked in right on time, glancing down at her watch:

(Please remember the website 20 ...

"After removing our makeup and changing our clothes, we'll head out in twenty minutes to shoot the endorsement video."

Shu Zi glanced at her in the mirror and replied weakly, "...Sister Wen, are you living on a stopwatch?"

Lan Manwen remained unfazed: "Otherwise, how do you think your schedule was arranged?"

Shu Zi was speechless and could only resign herself to closing her eyes and letting the makeup artist remove her makeup.

After a while, she opened her eyes and glimpsed Fang Zhizi squatting to the side, secretly laughing. She immediately glared at her.

Fang Zhizi was caught red-handed, so she quickly composed herself and pretended to be seriously adjusting her coat.

When Qi Yu came out of the dressing room after changing his clothes, he was already waiting in the corridor.

He changed back into his hoodie, carrying a paper bag, and immediately went to greet Shuzi when he saw her come out.

"Teacher Shu, this is for you."

Shu Zi took the paper bag, glanced down at it, and saw that it contained two small boxes of cakes.

She looked up at him, raising an eyebrow: "Are you... bribing me?"

Qi Yu chuckled and scratched the back of his head:

"No, no, it's just that I had a really great time working with you today, and I wanted to treat you to something sweet."

He paused, then added, "And I heard you have work tonight, so replenishing your sugar levels will give you the energy to work."

Shu Zi paused for a moment, then laughed:

"Okay, thanks, little brother. Let's work together again next time."

Qi Yu's eyes lit up, and he nodded vigorously: "Yes! I definitely will!"

Shu Zi picked up the paper bag and turned to walk out. Fang Zhizi quickly followed, and Lan Manwen was already standing at the door waiting for her.

By the time Shu Zi stepped out of the photography studio, it was already dark. She got into her car, took out her phone, and sent a message to Gu Yan.

A little girl said, "We're done filming. Now we're off to film my endorsement."

Her girlfriend is the most beautiful, the best, and the cutest: "Okay, let me know when you're done."

A little girl: "Okay~"

Shu Zi smiled slightly, put her phone in her pocket, leaned back in her seat, and closed her eyes.

As soon as the car drove out of the block where the photography studio was located, Shuzi's phone kept vibrating in her pocket.

She took it out and saw that the "plastic besties" trio's group chat had already exploded.

The biggest sleeper within a hundred miles: "@Little Zizi, Shu Xiaozi! Are you free tonight? Come to Wuyu! The three of us haven't gotten together in ages!"

Cute and clueless: "Exactly! You're so busy you're spinning like a top, if you don't come out and bask in the moonlight you'll get moldy!"

The biggest sleeper for miles around: "Mist Island, mist Island, mist Island! I've reserved a spot! If you don't come, we'll storm your house!"

Shu Zi looked up at Lan Manwen: "Sister Wen, do you have any plans for tomorrow?"

Lan Manwen flipped through the tablet: "The next few days are free. Just wait for Director Fei's notification."

Shu Zi nodded and lowered her head to type a reply to the group chat.

A little girl said, "Wait a minute, I still have an endorsement to film. I'll come and choose you guys after I finish filming."

The biggest sleeper within a hundred miles: "Okay! We'll go order some drinks and wait for you!"

Cute and clueless: "Come on, come on! Tonight we're drinking until we drop!"

The person who sleeps the most within a hundred miles: "By the way, did you drive? If not, send me your location and I'll come pick you up."

A little girl said, "It's not open yet, it's not open yet. You'll come pick me up when it's open."

The sleepiest person for miles around: "Chirp.jpg"

After sending the message, she sent another message to Gu Yan, telling him that she was going to Wuyu Island to meet up with her girlfriends that night. Then she put her phone in her pocket, leaned back in her chair, and closed her eyes to rest.

Fang Zhizi sat next to him, her eyes fixed on the bag of small cakes that Qi Yu had given her, her gaze so intense it could burn through the packaging.

Shu Zi didn't open her eyes, but the corners of her mouth curved slightly:

"Eat it if you want. You're staring at the box so intently you're practically drilling a hole in it. I can't eat it anyway, it's just a waste to leave it there."

Before she could finish speaking, Fang Zhizi sprang into action, tore open the box, grabbed a piece, and stuffed it into her mouth, mumbling:

"Sister Zizi, you're the best! You're the most beautiful, kindest, and most generous female celebrity I've ever met in the entire universe! I'll be your assistant again in my next life!"

Shu Zi still didn't open her eyes, but the corner of her mouth twitched slightly:

"Your flattery was too obvious. Remember to be more subtle next time."

Fang Zhizi stuffed another piece into her mouth, her cheeks puffed out like a hamster's: "What are you hiding? I'm just telling the truth!"

Shu Zi was too lazy to expose her, so she turned over and continued to pretend to sleep, but she couldn't quite suppress the corners of her mouth.

She leaned back in her seat, her breathing gradually calming down, as if she had truly fallen asleep.

After finishing the second piece of cake, Fang Zhizi finally licked her fingers with satisfaction.

She turned her head to look at Shu Zi's quiet profile, then lowered her voice and asked Lan Manwen:

"Sister Wen, is Sister Zizi asleep?"

Lan Manwen looked up from the tablet, glanced at the back row through the rearview mirror, and lowered her voice:

"Okay, let her sleep. We'll wake her up when we get there."

Fang Zhizi nodded, obediently shut her mouth, took out her newly bought phone, switched it to silent mode, secretly took a picture of Shu Zi's sleeping profile, saved it to her album, and wrote the following note:

Today's featured beautiful boss is working hard.

When the car arrived at the filming location, Shu Zi had just woken up.

She rubbed her eyes, glanced out the window, and yawned: "Have we arrived?"

"arrive."

Lan Manwen had already opened the car door. "Cheer up, let's get this over with quickly. You'll be free once we're done filming."

Shu Zi took a deep breath, patted her face to clear her mind, and then stepped out of the car:

"Okay, let's wrap up early and have some fun."

The endorsement shoot went exceptionally smoothly. The brand treated her with the utmost courtesy, with the director personally greeting her and repeatedly saying, "Thank you for your hard work, Ms. Shu."

The photographers were snapping photos non-stop, and the final images required almost no rework.

Shu Zi was in great form and had excellent camera presence. She finished the job a full half hour earlier than expected.
