A guy with escalating demands and no sense of boundaries

"Panoramic shot? A real panoramic shot!

You want to highlight one person in a wide shot?

Why not just shoot a medium or close-up then!

This request is no less absurd than asking for 'colorfully vibrant black.'

'Sorry, is it impossible to achieve the effect I described?'

'I didn’t do well in photography class either. I just have this image in my head but don’t know how to put it into words.'

Lin Yu scratched his head awkwardly, looking at Lv Rou.

Meanwhile, Lv Rou caught a glimpse of her best friend Wu Chuntian’s unrestrained grin.

'It’s possible, of course it is.'

'I’ll go to the side aisle and shoot from an angled perspective.'

'It might not capture the entire theater clearly, is that okay?'

Lin Yu nodded repeatedly.

'That’s fine. Thank you, Lv Rou. You’re so kind.'

Lv Rou smiled and turned to leave.

The moment she turned away, her expression instantly soured.

Before running into Lin Yu today,

Lv Rou had prepared for the worst-case scenarios, rehearsing responses and strategies.

The one thing she hadn’t anticipated was being treated like a personal photographer, running around doing manual labor.

Lv Rou’s second trip down the aisle once again drew the attention of the 'Four Heavenly Kings.'

Gao Yumin: 'Still shooting? Do girls really love taking photos this much?'

Zhao Bin glanced in Wu Chuntian’s direction: 'Not necessarily. Not all girls are into it.'

Gou Feng: 'Quit staring. Maybe she’s just taking photos for Wu Chuntian. Hey, Hai, what do you think—'

Gou Feng turned to Shi Yanhai, expecting a response,

only to find the guy sitting ramrod straight, gazing into the distance with a profound look.

Seriously? Posing for a dramatic shot now?

But then—

'Lin Yu? Lin Yu!'

'Turn a little toward me. I can’t get a clear shot of your face!'

Lv Rou’s voice drifted over.

[Ding!]

[Bloodlust Frenzy: Summoning a succubus at will, dealing a crushing blow to the entire Infernal Demon Squad!]

Shi Yanhai: 'What the hell???'

Gao Yumin: 'Damn, she’s taking photos for that bastard Lin Yu?'

Zhao Bin: 'No way… He’s bossing Lv Rou around too?'

Gou Feng: 'Hey, Zhao, no offense, but maybe he could even get Wu Chuntian to—'

Zhao Bin: 'Shut the hell up!'

Under the watchful eyes of the Four Heavenly Kings, Lin Yu turned slightly, posing for Lv Rou’s camera.

Avoiding the lens directly was a deliberate move on his part.

The goal was simple:

To make the Infernal Demon Squad realize who the real protagonist in her frame was!

As Lv Rou jogged back, her face flushed from exertion, she showed Lin Yu the photos again.

'The lighting is much better this time. It really highlights you.'

'Lin Yu, I didn’t expect you to be so photogenic!'

Lv Rou’s words were sweet as honey.

No matter how much disdain she felt inside, her compliments never failed to warm the heart.

Lin Yu had nothing to offer in return except the thrill of pushing her limits.

'Thanks, Lv Rou. You’re really good at this.'

'Now that I think about it… maybe close-ups work better in a movie theater?'

'Wouldn’t shooting from a few rows in front of me be ideal?'

[Ding!]

[Critical Hit: Repeatedly treating the succubus like a servant has ignited her fury!]

[Reward: Spirit Stones 50]

Lv Rou’s eye twitched: '!!!'

Enough already!

Here we go again!

She ran back and forth twice, only for him to suggest her own idea now?

She came here to watch a movie, not to be his damn photographer!

What’s wrong with Lin Yu?

Is he really this oblivious?

Does he not realize how rude it is to keep bothering a girl like this?

Yet, Lv Rou maintained her smile and nodded.

'No problem. Any other angles you’d like?'

'Going in and out is a hassle. I can take all the shots you need before settling in.'

She said it all in one breath,

hoping to end this exhausting and pointless task as soon as possible.

This guy wasn’t just clueless—he operated on a completely different wavelength from normal guys.

Lin Yu shook his head.

'That’s enough. Just a few more shots and we’re done.'

Lv Rou blinked and flashed a cute 'OK' sign.

Wu Chuntian finally cracked a satisfied smile.

At least tonight’s dorm gossip would be juicy.

Even if cowardly Lin Yu didn’t make any romantic advances,

the fact that Lv Rou went through all this trouble for him was unprecedented.

[Ding!]

[Fatal Blow: The Infernal Demon Squad’s foot soldiers have been annihilated. Only the leader remains, barely holding on!]

[Reward: Spirit Stones 50+50+50+50]

As for the Four Heavenly Kings?

They were utterly speechless, even begrudgingly impressed by Lin Yu’s audacity.

Three times!

Lv Rou, the girl with no shortage of admirers, had gone in and out three times—for Lin Yu.

Meanwhile, Lin Yu sat like a celebrity, not even bothering to move,

basking in the spotlight while remotely commanding the girl many dreamed of.

Listening to the system’s notifications,

Lin Yu felt a twinge of disappointment.

The squad’s lackeys were still too weak.

Only the class president was still standing his ground.

Seems like his feelings for Da Chi were genuine.

Ah well.

The more devoted he is, the more fun it’ll be to break him.

'Huff… huff…'

Back in her seat after all the running around, Lv Rou fanned her blouse, catching her breath.

Her fair skin peeked through the fluttering fabric,

making it hard for anyone with weak self-control to look away.

Lv Rou: 'Wow, I’m sweating so much.'

Lin Yu: 'Sorry, did I ask for too much?'

Lv Rou: '…'

Only now does he realize he’s been demanding?

What took him so long?!

Still, Lv Rou waved it off gently.

'Haha, of course not. This time, I’ll make sure you’re satisfied.'

'I took a bunch of photos. I’ll send them all to you on WeChat, and you can pick the ones you like.'

With that,

she opened WeChat, ready to transfer the photos to Lin Yu.

But—

The real move was only just beginning.

'Data is expensive. (In 2014, mobile data really was pricey.)'

'Sending all these photos would waste too much. Let me just pick one from your phone.'

Lv Rou: '!!!'

This guy…

Is his obliviousness a superpower?

This isn’t just clueless—it’s outright boundary-crossing!

A girl’s phone is private!

And her photo gallery? Even more so!

How can he just ask to rummage through it without a second thought?

Wu Chuntian’s heart raced with excitement.

'It’s only mid-month. Lin Yu’s just being considerate—what a sweet guy.'

'Rou, just let him pick.'

Lin Yu smirked inwardly.

What a perfect instigator.

Lv Rou was the one who helped Wu Chuntian become the subject of campus legends.

Now, she’d love nothing more than to watch Lin Yu push Lv Rou’s buttons.

'Right, I didn’t think of that.'

'I’ll help you choose. Here’s the first one.'

'Just swipe back—all the consecutive shots are of you. When you can’t swipe anymore, that’s it.'

Lin Yu nodded. 'Got it.'

Then,

under Lv Rou’s uneasy gaze,

he picked up her phone and started scrolling.
