I turned reality into a romantic comedy.

If it were a romantic comedy...

"If it's a romantic comedy, the cameraman's perspective is definitely on our side right now, so the lines and actions are very important. You need to have a sense of the camera."

Zhu Wenyun was quite curious about Gu Lingguo, who had been chattering incessantly since entering the women's changing room, and tried to understand what she was saying. After all, if Chen Junqian hadn't interfered, the female protagonist of her new book would have been this girl who seemed unremarkable to outsiders, but became increasingly eccentric the more you got to know her. They had also discussed this topic before, so she readily chimed in with a sense of emotional value:

For example?

"Of course, you can't just change clothes in the dressing room; there has to be dialogue and interaction between the female leads."

As Gu Linguo muttered these words, she began to glance at Zhu Wenjun and Shen Nianqiu, who had already changed their clothes halfway. She suddenly had the feeling that Lin Mu had changed into her swimsuit in the room beforehand, perhaps because she didn't want to stay in this kind of place.

She herself chose a cute style swimsuit based on the advice of the shop assistant when she bought it.

But now Gu Lingguo realizes that swimsuits don't really have a cute or sexy style; it all depends on who's wearing them.

For example, she was quite certain that the swimsuit she was wearing, which the shop assistant had confidently claimed was the most trendy cute style this year, would probably become the most trendy sexy style if Zhu Wenyun or Shen Nianqiu next to her wore it.

Shen Nianqiu didn't notice Gu Linguo's gaze. Rather, she was already used to the attention from other girls in the changing room. She calmly changed into a swimsuit that, although not very revealing, still gave off a strangely provocative vibe.

The delicate drawstring on the side of the swimsuit gently pierced her fair skin, perfectly accentuating the girl's figure.

So Gu Lingguo silently looked away, only to bump into Xu Youwei on the other side.

The girl, who had been rather quiet all day, had changed into her swimsuit. With a hair tie in her mouth, she slowly raised her arms and gently tied her hair into a simple bun behind her head, making it easier for her to move around during the rest of the day.

Even if she didn't show it on her face, Xu Youwei was in a very good mood. After all, in this locker room, only her swimsuit was special, unlike everyone else's. This was the most memorable championship skin she and Chen Junqian had ever worn.

Holding her hair up with one hand, Xu Youwei took the hair tie she was holding in her mouth with the other and began to tie a simple high ponytail. With this movement, her swimsuit drew a perfect semicircle in front of her chest, showing off her beautiful bust shape and size. Two graceful V-lines were also visible on her sides, which proved that the girl had a very healthy lifestyle.

On the other hand, it also seems to indicate that her figure has not improved or changed significantly compared to last year. She doesn't feel any tightness or looseness anywhere. This conclusion made Xu Youwei feel relieved but also a little melancholy, especially under the pressure of the two girls next to her.

Unaware of Xu Youwei's thoughts, Gu Lingguo lowered her eyes again after looking at the swimsuits of the other three people. She could immediately see the two thin tulle skirts on her lower body. She was wearing a light blue swimsuit that resembled a dress. According to the shop assistant, this style of swimsuit, with its double-layered tulle skirt design, could give people a hazy and ethereal beauty.

Look at these little words.

It was all hazy and indistinct. Although she could comfort herself that her still-developing figure was enough to crush a whole host of romantic comedy heroines, led by a certain black-haired, icy girl, Gu Lingguo still felt that the world was too unfair.

So where is Mumu?

After a brief moment of melancholy, she quickly adjusted her mindset and explained to Zhu Wenyun with a smile:

"For example, I would exclaim in surprise, 'Sister Yun has such a great figure—what do you usually eat?' Then when I ask Sister Yun, she would either shyly cover it up or gently say that there's nothing special about it. At this time, Sister Nianqiu comes over..."

Upon hearing her name called, Shen Nianqiu paused slightly.

"Well, personally, I'd rather change into my swimsuit and get out of here than say those lines in the locker room."

"This is also a side of the female lead! Let's go then."

Smiling, Gu Lingguo followed Shen Nianqiu out. Although she had the same idea in her heart, she was never as straightforward as Shen Nianqiu said. Even when they walked out of the dressing room together, she subconsciously lagged behind by about half a step, letting the tall Shen Nianqiu and Zhu Wenyun block her way.

Chen Junqian, who was the male protagonist but no longer had the perspective of the dressing room, finally saw the main characters. In this important scene where the illustrator also had to draw the color illustration, he maintained a high level of focus. On the other hand, Chen Xi next to him lowered his head slightly, his cold eyes hidden in the shadow of the sun hat brim, and seemed not very interested in the magnificent scenery in front of him, which was as vast as the sea.

Youyou's swimsuit had already been appreciated more than just visually, and Gu Linguo was hiding at the very back, so the first thing that caught Chen Junqian's eye were the two very prestigious double D winners in personality.

First of all, it must be acknowledged that it is difficult to get real girls to wear swimsuits that are essentially no different from bikinis in terms of exposure, like those in romantic comedies. Even on a private beach without outsiders, Shen Nianqiu and Zhu Wenyun, who are wearing swimsuits for the first time, would certainly not choose an overly revealing style.

However, as Gu Linguo once said, as long as you have a good figure, you can easily wear a cute swimsuit to look sexy. Shen Nianqiu's swimsuit is a good example of this. There are no fussy laces or frivolous bright colors. Wearing a pearl white one-piece swimsuit, she exudes a cool and noble elegance like a ballerina.

The pearl-white fabric shimmered with a subtle, matte sheen, clinging tightly to her skin as if it were alive. In this utterly unreasonable embrace, the fabric slid down her straight back and full breasts, then abruptly cinched inwards at her waist using the craftsmanship on both sides.

Not an inch of skin was exposed, yet the pure white swimsuit was like a soft, sculpted garment, perfectly outlining the girl's graceful curves. When Chen Junqian's gaze fell upon her, Shen Nianqiu slightly turned her head, tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear, and asked with a smile:

How about this one?

"It suits my sister very well; it has a ballet costume feel to it."

"I guess it's because I used to dance, so when I saw this outfit, I felt it suited me very well."

Compared to Shen Nianqiu's swimsuit, Zhu Wenyun's style is more sophisticated in terms of exposure. The highly elastic fabric is slightly stretched into a tight curve at the chest, and the slight gap makes the bust appear more upright and full of youthful vitality. The lower body is a pair of pure black high-waisted V-shaped swim trunks, with the waistline deliberately raised, not only past the navel but also almost reaching the hem of the top, leaving a gap that allows the fair waistline to be fully exposed.

As the tallest girl, she stood there without deliberately striking any poses. Her slender limbs, combined with the extremely high-waisted design that accentuated her delicate waist, made her look like a daffodil growing in the wind, outstanding while also exuding a refreshing and heroic spirit unique to young girls.

"……Well."

Before Chen Junqian could speak, the younger sister next to him seemed to want to say something but hesitated. In the end, she looked away and ran a few steps away to a parasol.

"Did you buy this set yourself, Wenyun?"

"Lulu recommended it to me, but it's actually a little revealing here..."

It seemed that this was also Zhu Wenyun's first time wearing it, and she seemed to care a little about the two not-so-large slits near her chest and thighs. However, the way she moved her hands there was more likely to arouse the male protagonist's nerves.

“I think it’s very suitable for Wen Yun, mainly because Wen Yun already has a great figure, and this outfit will make her legs look especially beautiful.”

"I know, I know, it means it means all legs below the chest, right?"

Gu Lingguo, who finally emerged from behind, was wearing a light blue and pure white checkered swimsuit. The clear colors, paired with her slightly flushed fair cheeks, gave off a subtle first-love feeling. The two fluffy and cute little flutter sleeves did not make her look bulky at all, but instead cleverly extended her shoulder line, making her already small frame look even more charming.

The skirt on her lower body was also very pretty. With her breathing and walking, the skirt hem bloomed slightly like flower petals, precisely covering her thighs while making her legs look straight and well-proportioned. It was a princess-style swimsuit that was extremely sweet and well-behaved.

"I feel that Lin Guo's outfit is also very...adorable, and the various little decorations are quite pleasing."

Almost forgetting his agreement with Gu Linguo not to use the word 'cute' to praise her, Chen Junqian quickly changed his approach. Finally, not forgetting the champion skin holder, he also gave a thorough compliment to Xu Youwei standing next to him:

"Youyou's swimsuit is also very pretty, and her abs look great."

"Thank you."

Although Chen Junqian's words were quite serious, Xu Youwei was clearly not in a calm mood. After giving a hasty reply, she walked directly towards Lin Mu and then plunged into the sea. She could swim.

"Nianqiu and Wenyun, what are you planning to do? How about going for a dip in the water? It's still quite hot today."

"Let me set things up here for you first."

"Isn't there a volleyball court here? How about we play beach volleyball later?"

Together with Chen Junqian, they laid out the picnic mat and took out all the daily necessities and arranged them properly. Zhu Wenyun then took out the volleyball from the mat, squeezed it against her chest to check if it was inflated enough, which attracted a lot of attention.

"……Chair."

However, soon after, the younger sister nudged Chen Junqian again, who then unfolded the folding recliner he had brought, carefully adjusted the angle of the backrest, and comfortably placed it under Chen Xi.

"Thank you, brother."

Just like a lightning-fast change of expression, Chen Xi thanked them sweetly, then put on her sunglasses and lay down like a salted fish, as if the surrounding noise had been automatically blocked out by an invisible barrier.

After setting up the base camp, Chen Junqian's gaze returned to the volleyball in Zhu Wenyun's hand:

"You, Nianqiu, plus me and Lin Guo, the four of us can definitely play beach volleyball. What do the others think?"

"I can do it."

Gu Linguo was the first to raise her hand in agreement, and Shen Nianqiu also had no objections. Hotel staff had already set up a volleyball net nearby, so the four of them walked towards it together.

"How should we divide them into groups?"

"I'll team up with the senior, and Sister Nianqiu and Sister Wenyun will team up. Since the senior is the strongest, I, the weakest, will be paired with him. This way, the strength of both sides will be the most balanced, is that alright?"

As if she had planned it all along, Gu Lingguo quickly stated her thoughts, while simultaneously pulling Chen Junqian to her side. Shen Nianqiu and Zhu Wenyun exchanged a glance:

"Okay, let's divide it like this for now."

"We'll be switching sides in a bit, too."

"It's okay, come on, come on."

After all, Gu Lingguo had practiced volleyball for a long time in preparation for the physical test. After receiving the volleyball, she served it quite easily. On the other side, Shen Nianqiu and Zhu Wenyun also had good athletic ability and their cooperation was quite tacit. After exchanging glances, they determined their respective defense areas and easily defended the ball that was hit.

"senior--"

Just then, Gu Linguo suddenly raised her voice and shouted loudly. Chen Junqian, who was originally going to take the ball himself, immediately understood her meaning and forcefully pulled back the power and direction of his hand, passing the ball to Gu Linguo next to him.

"Fly high, fly high!"

Although he really wanted to complain about whether someone had mispronounced their lines, when he saw the girl's figure really jumping up and down with all her might, her eyes only on the volleyball, Chen Junqian still reflexively followed her. Just like in the anime "Haikyuu!!", regardless of whether she could catch the ball or not, the girl's posture showed that she hadn't considered how to land normally in a moment.

Well, in the end, he didn't even catch the ball.

Watching Chen Junqian catch the girl who jumped up but lost her balance in mid-air on the other side of the grid, Zhu Wenyun exchanged a thoughtful glance with Shen Nianqiu.

Anime, chuunibyou (middle school syndrome), romantic comedy...

Although it's still all very unclear.

But it really feels very useful.

Chapter 114: Mu Mu won't apply sunscreen, how am I supposed to? (4k5)

As a classic segment in the large-scale romantic comedy DLC of a summer beach camp, the beach volleyball game, in Chen Junqian's view, is essentially a scene that gives the audience a treat. Usually, at this time, the cameraman's shot will follow the heroines leaping up on the beach, allowing the gentlemen to express their feelings of "Good shot! Good shot!" in the barrage.

However, during the first halftime break, Chen Junqian had the exact opposite thoughts in his mind. No matter what kind of "good shot" it was, his teammate who had volunteered had never shown it once. As a result, most of the time, he had to catch the ball and catch someone at the same time, repeatedly scooping up Gu Linguo, who was performing fancy flat-ground falls, whether it was by divine intervention or he himself had become divine intervention.

Although falling on soft sand is not a big deal, in romantic comedies, falling down can be a classic plot trigger. Chen Junqian, who has experienced this firsthand, would naturally want to avoid it as much as possible. Otherwise, the other person might just knock him down in an ambiguous position that would make Newton lift his coffin.

Since they were both wearing swimsuits, even this level of support or catching broke Gu Lingguo's previous record for physical contact. Feeling that going any further would be too much, the girl, blushing and panting, called for a break, plopped back down under the parasol, picked up a coconut, and started gulping down water.

"Lin Guo's athletic ability can't be that bad, can it?"

Lying on the sun lounger next to her, Chen Xi pushed her sunglasses up slightly, complaining as she did so, while her bare feet playfully kicked her best friend.

"Because I'm challenging myself with all sorts of difficult moves. By the way, why isn't Xiaoxi wearing a swimsuit? Is she shy?"

"I don't really want to go into the water right now, maybe later."

"Ok."

Gu Linguo had just exchanged a few words with Chen Xi when she saw Zhu Wenyun also come over and sit down to rest under the shade of the parasol. She had been quite serious when she was playing beach volleyball, and twice when she was receiving and saving the ball, she almost fell to the ground. Because of this, you could see a lot of fine sand rolling in through the two gaps in the front and sides of her swimsuit, forcing her to repeatedly adjust and fuss over the fabric. Gu Linguo was so annoyed that she wanted to call for a Holy Knight.

However, it seemed that instead of using her hands to push it apart, she might as well rinse it in the water. So, not long after, Zhu Wenyun went to the sea and immersed herself in the seawater not far from the shore, just like taking a bath. This immediately reduced Gu Lingguo's pressure by half.

Meanwhile, the other half of her source of stress, Shen Nianqiu, who was also sitting there resting, was looking at another girl playing in the water and Chen Junqian who was walking closer to her.

When Chen Junqian went to find Lin Mu, she was squatting by the water, scooping up a handful of seawater with both hands, watching the water slip through her fingers. Her smile was pure and without any impurities. The sunlight shone on her, as if gilding her with a golden outline.

Indeed, just as she said before, this simplest way of playing in the water is enough to satisfy her, and the negative pressure and emotions that she had accumulated over the past few months due to the high school entrance exam seem to have been swept away.

"Mu Mu".

Hearing the familiar voice behind him, Lin Mu turned around, his eyes immediately lighting up:

"Qianqian? You're done playing volleyball? Come quick, there are lots of little crabs here!"

Chen Junqian walked over and squatted down beside her. Looking at the tiny sand crab, no bigger than a fingernail, struggling desperately in her hand, he couldn't help but laugh.

"Mumu, don't break it. Let it go home. Didn't you say you wanted to learn to swim? Take this with you, and I'll take you to a slightly deeper place."
