Brother Su Yang Really Knows How to Take Pictures

The boss known as Brother Ma had a round face that looked quite fortunate.

His earlobes were thick, his eyebrows bushy and eyes large, with simple short hair, and a height around 165 cm.

He stepped forward with a smile, taking out cigarettes to distribute to the boys.

"Hehe, renting a bike here is cheap~"

"How cheap is cheap?" Liu Bo took the cigarette and asked with a laugh.

"Depends on what kind you rent. The ones with longer range are more expensive, the shorter-range ones are cheaper."

"Then we definitely need bikes with enough range to circle Erhai Lake. Can't have them running out of power halfway."

Brother Ma laughed: "We have those, we have those. Come, come over here and take a look."

Saying this, Brother Ma put a cigarette in his mouth and led the group to the very back of the yard. He pointed at a few electric bikes that looked noticeably larger and said with a smile: "These ones are no problem for circling the lake, easy~"

"Really? What about carrying a passenger?"

"Of course. These have a range of about 160-170 kilometers. Circling the lake is only 140 kilometers."

Liu Bo nodded: "Oh, that should be enough then."

"Absolutely no problem. So, ladies and gentlemen, how many do you need to rent?"

"How much for one?"

"These long-range ones are 60 yuan per day."

Hearing this, Liu Bo nodded and looked at Su Yang and the others: "How many should we rent?"

The group glanced around. Meng Qianyu ran to Su Yang's side at this moment, took his hand, and said coquettishly, "I'll share one with Brother Su Yang."

Seeing this, Pan Ning looked at Tang Ziyun and Su Qingci and asked, "Can you two ride?"

Tang Ziyun nodded: "I can~"

Su Qingci shook her head: "I'm not very good at it~"

"Then Ziyun gets one by herself." Pan Ning looked at Su Qingci: "Xiao Su, I'll take you."

Su Qingci gave a sweet smile: "Okay~"

Liu Bo looked at Brother Ma and said, "Three for them, and one each for us guys, eight total."

Brother Ma smiled: "Alrighty, eight it is. That'll be 420 total. Just ride them back before 10 PM."

"Don't you need a deposit or ID or anything?"

"No deposit needed. Just register one person's name and phone number when you pay."

"Okay, then we'll take eight. Where do we pay?"

"Inside, please~" The boss said, taking Liu Bo inside to pay and do a simple registration.

After registering, Liu Bo stood at the door and called out: "Everyone, come in and pick a helmet~"

"Alrighty."

Soon, everyone went inside and each chose a helmet. After Liu Bo added Brother Ma as a contact, the group went to the yard to pick their bikes.

Meng Qianyu pointed at a pink electric bike with a smile: "Brother Su Yang, let's take this one."

She walked over to the bike and looked it over left and right, seeming quite satisfied.

Su Yang nodded with a smile: "Then this one it is."

"Okay. Teach me later, I want to learn how to ride too."

"Sure~"

The others quickly chose their bikes as well. Then everyone put on their helmets and rode out one after another onto the lakeside road.

Liu Bo turned his head and asked: "Which way should we go?"

"We should have asked the boss which places are fun."

"It's fine. We're going around the whole circle anyway, we'll see all the scenery along the way," Meng Wenzhou said with a laugh.

Ji Bo took out his phone, looked it up, and said while looking ahead: "Let's ride along the Haidong Line. Online it says this route is all along the coast, very beautiful."

"Okay, let's go then!!"

"Gogogo!!" Liu Bo shouted and led the way, charging out on a silver electric bike.

The rest of the group set off as well.

Meng Qianyu sat on the back of the pink electric bike. She moved the camera hanging on her chest to her side, then pressed her body tightly against Su Yang's back, wrapping her arms firmly around his waist like a pendant.

"Let's go, Brother Su Yang!"

Su Yang looked down at Meng Qianyu's hands and laughed: "Qianyu, ease up a bit. No need to hold so tight, I can barely breathe~"

"Oh oh, okay~"

At that moment, Pan Ning, carrying Su Qingci, rode up from behind them and said casually, "What are you two doing? Hurry up~"

"Okay!" Su Yang agreed, twisting the right handle. The electric bike quickly sped forward.

"Wow!!" Meng Qianyu immediately shouted and once again held onto Su Yang for dear life.

And so, the group slowly rode out of Shuanglang Ancient Town, beginning their trip around the lake.

There were many tourists riding bikes along the way. Some were solo, others were also a guy carrying a girl.

Soon they reached a more open area. The road here was straight, with scattered houses on the left, and on the right was Erhai Lake, which could almost be described as boundless.

From time to time, flocks of birds flew over the lake surface.

Su Yang, with Meng Qianyu, maintained a speed of about 50 km/h. Meng Qianyu spread her arms, the breeze lifting the hair beneath her helmet.

Su Yang glanced in the rearview mirror and smiled slightly.

[Ding. Detecting the host is in a pleasant mood, thoroughly enjoying the present moment. Reward: 2 million.]

"Qianyu, hold onto me, don't move around~"

"Oh oh, okay~"

"Brother Su Yang, riding here is so comfortable. The air is fresh, and the scenery is beautiful~"

"Yeah, are you happy?"

"Of course~"

"Oh, right, Brother Su Yang, teach me how to ride later. I want to learn~"

"Alright, I'll teach you when we find a section with fewer cars."

"Okay!"

Currently, Su Yang and the others were on the Haidong Line of Erhai Lake. This route was mostly coastal, focusing on lakeside and natural scenery, making it perfect for cycling.

On the Haixi Line, because there were more villages, most sections weren't along the lake, and bikes couldn't enter the lakeside road.

However, many famous attractions were on the Haixi Line, such as the internet-famous S-bend, Longkan Dock, etc. If you wanted to visit those, you could only park your bike at the entrance and walk in.

After visiting, you'd come out, get your bike, and continue forward via the national highway or Dali Road.

This was a bit of a minor hassle, but Su Yang and the group had plenty of time, so it didn't matter.

And even if you didn't ride along the lakeside road, taking the national highway or Dali Road also offered many beautiful rice paddy landscapes.

In short, coming to Er City, you're basically never disappointed no matter where you go.

Soon, everyone rode to the first relatively well-known attraction on the Haidong Line: Luwo Mountain.

It was said that at the base of the mountain here were two broken windows, framing the Cang Mountain and Erhai Lake behind them, making a great background for photos.

After arriving at Luwo Mountain, the group parked their bikes by the roadside to enjoy the view. The guys, as usual, had quite a nicotine habit, seizing any opportunity to puff away.

The girls, except for Pan Ning, all got off and started taking photos by the roadside.

After taking photos for a while, they saw other tourists climbing over the guardrail and walking down a small slope by the road.

Meng Qianyu went up and asked a girl about it, then ran back to Su Yang.

"Brother Su Yang, they said it's better for photos down the slope. Can you take a few pictures for us?" Meng Qianyu handed her camera to Su Yang with a smile.

Su Yang nodded: "Sure. We need to go down to take them?"

"Mmhmm, the photos are better down there~" Meng Qianyu pointed to a somewhat rugged little path.

"Alright then, let's go~"

Su Yang turned to look at the boys and asked, "Coming along?"

"We'll pass. There's not much to photograph around here."

"Alright then, I'll go take a few pictures for them."

Su Yang then called out to Pan Ning, "You're not coming either?"

"You can just take pictures for them."

"Okay, wait here for a bit then."

Su Yang hung the camera around his neck and followed the three girls down the rugged path leading downhill.

"Take it slow, the path isn't great, don't slip~"

"Got it~" The three girls walked ahead cheerfully.

Su Yang followed closely. Soon, the four of them arrived at a small stretch of beach at the very bottom, with Erhai Lake right beside it.

They looked around. Not far to their right were a few dilapidated houses.

Meng Qianyu pointed at the houses and said, "Looks like it's over there. Let's go~"

The four of them quickly walked to the houses. To call them houses was a stretch—they were just three broken walls with no roof.

On the middle wall was a square-shaped window, known to people as 'The Ercheng Window.'

At that moment, four or five young men and women were taking photos by the window.

Su Yang and the others waited for a while until the young people finished and left.

Meng Qianyu ran over to the window with a smile, looked through it, and laughed, "Our turn~"

"How should we take it?"

"Let me think for a moment, I need to find the right spot."

As she said this, Meng Qianyu climbed onto the windowsill, sat sideways, and struck a pose. "Ready, Brother Su Yang~"

"Okay~" Su Yang smiled, picked up his camera, turned it on, found a suitable position, aimed at Meng Qianyu, and pressed the shutter.

Click, click~

After taking several shots in a row, Meng Qianyu jumped down from the not-too-high window, ran to Su Yang's side, and took the camera to check the photos.

Because of the weather, her face was flushed, with a few fine beads of sweat on her forehead.

"Wow, these look great!! Xiao Su, Sister Ziyun, look." Meng Qianyu said, bringing the camera over to the other two to share the beautiful photos Su Yang had taken of her.

Even though they were just simple shots, the photos turned out remarkably well, making the other two quite envious.

Su Qingci then looked at Su Yang and said, "Brother Su Yang, you really know how to take pictures~ My turn, my turn~"
