Chapter 196 The camera doesn't lie, you look like this! (4K)

"When will I be free?"

Chen Jingle stared at the message again and again, thought about it, and replied: "Everyone is very busy."

Li Beixing was stunned when he saw the reply. At this moment, he seemed to hear the sound of his own heartbreaking.

what?
Was she... rejected?

No, you...I...

She was a little confused, staring at the screen blankly, at a loss. Suddenly she felt that her nose was round and red, like a clown.

Just when she was pouting in grievance, Chen Jingle sent another message the next second.

"But if you insist on setting a time, I can coordinate it."

Ok? !

Li Beixing was stunned again and asked quickly: "What does coordination mean?"

Chen Jingle: "Just change your schedule and go out instead."

"In other words, you are free?" Li Beixing widened his eyes.

Chen Jingle: "You can be free."

It's ok if you have time!

So, you made time for me?
Li Beixing's expression changed instantly, from sadness to joy, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

What are you doing!

She thought she was rejected and almost dropped her little pearl out of grievance.

Please don't breathe so heavily when you speak next time!
But just agree to it.

Li Beixing couldn't hold back his smile any longer and typed a reply: "Then, tomorrow afternoon? The kapok trees under the setting sun have a unique flavor."

Chen Jingle's answer was very concise: "Yes."

After receiving a positive response, Li Beixing finally felt relieved and satisfied.

I can sleep well tonight.

At the same time, I secretly warned myself that I must not be so bold next time. Although it was very exciting, if I was not careful, I would lose everything.

It would be so embarrassing if I really became a clown!
On the other side, Chen Jingle, who had just finished the conversation, fell into deep thought and began to make a simple adjustment to tomorrow's schedule.

"A sea of strange kapok flowers... all right."

It just so happens that he has never seen it, so he might as well take this opportunity to go and see it for himself.

……

the next day.

Chen Jingle was busy for the whole morning before he finally got everything ready.

He said yesterday that he would make some rice sauce for Chen Qiyun, and he put it into action today.

I made beef sauce for rice.

This thing is not easy to make and the process is very troublesome, so it took a lot of time to get it done.

At lunch time.

He said to Chen Qiyun, "I have to go out this afternoon. I will prepare dinner for you and you can eat at home. Just remember to wash the dishes after eating."

"Where are you going again?" Chen Qiyun was curious.

He hasn't been at home every day recently, which is not in line with Chen Jingle's style.

In the past, he would not go out for more than once a month, except for buying groceries and picking up parcels. But in the past two weeks alone, he has gone out more times than in the first half of the year combined.

Something is wrong!
Chen Jingle said casually: "Get something for a friend."

"Oh."

Chen Qiyun felt something was wrong, but she couldn't put her finger on it, so she could only bury her doubts in her heart.

Could the friend he was talking about be Sister Manlin or Teacher Li?

Chen Qiyun was speculating secretly in her heart.

"And this, for you."

Chen Jingle took out a glass jar full of beef sauce from the side.

Chen Qiyun was stunned: "What is that?"

It looked like the glass jars for seasonings sold in supermarkets. It was a bit big and had a capacity similar to that of her water cup.

It seems to contain... chili oil?!
Chen Jingle explained: "I made beef sauce for rice. If I'm not at home and haven't prepared food in advance, you can use this for rice or as a dip. At least it will fill your stomach first, instead of just eating half a bowl of rice. Children who eat too little will not grow tall and are prone to hypoglycemia."

"Oh~!"

Chen Qiyun's originally frowned brows slowly relaxed, and she became very excited and happily took it.

This was the problem that troubled her the most before.

This is just great!

Although it’s not as delicious as a hot meal, it’s better than nothing.

The beef sauce made by Chen Jingle is different from those sold outside. It is a typical one with more meat and less sauce. A total of two pounds of beef is put in, and the auxiliary ingredients are four ounces of garlic, two ounces of ginger, two ounces of chili, two ounces of bean paste and one ounce of fermented black beans. It is fried in wide oil and then slowly boiled until it is shiny.

The beef sauce sold outside doesn’t contain so much beef.

Beef sauce tastes better when there is more meat!
And it should be large pieces of beef, not minced beef or ground beef.

Under normal circumstances, you can add more chili peppers, and you should add several different types of chili peppers so that the taste will be complex.

Unfortunately, both Chen Jingle and Chen Qiyun can't eat spicy food, so they put less.

It may be a little, but it is necessary. The beef sauce made without chili will have a much worse flavor.

When the beef sauce is cooked until it is shiny and oily, and the aroma is fully released, and it tastes good even when dipped in slippers, then it is almost done.

But slippers may not be so tasty.

……

Li Beixing had been looking forward to meeting Chen Jingle in the afternoon all day.

After get off work, I drove to the park first instead of going home first.

However, after arriving at the park, she did not rush to get out of the car. Instead, she simply touched up her makeup in the car and opened the door after making sure there was no problem.

The time I agreed to meet with Chen Jingle is 5pm.

It’s actually a bit early at this time, and the sun is still high in the sky.

Although the autumnal equinox has long passed, the days are still very long in Jiangbei, which is located south of the Tropic of Cancer, and winter will not come until the end of November. The weather is just a little cooler, not as hot as at the beginning of the month, and it can barely be called autumn.

When Chen Jingle arrived at the designated location in the park, he saw Li Beixing waiting there from afar.

He walked over quickly and said, "Sorry for the wait."

Li Beixing smiled lightly: "No, I just arrived too."

Seeing Chen Jingle holding a small paper bag in his hand, she became curious.

"This is for you." Chen Jingle handed over the bag.

Li Beixing was stunned: "What is this? A gift?"

I took it and looked down, and saw two glass bottles that looked like sauces in the bag.

Uh, what is this...? !

Chen Jingle said: "I make my own beef sauce, which can be used to mix rice or noodles."

Li Beixing couldn't hold it in anymore and burst out laughing. Who would give a girl beef sauce instead of flowers when dating her?

Don't be too outrageous!

"Okay, thank you! I'll try it later to see if it tastes good~"

Li Beixing weighed two large bottles of beef sauce, which was not small at all, and smiled.

There was no disgust. After all, Chen Jingle's cooking skills were there, and there would probably be unexpected surprises.

"What are the arrangements next?" Chen Jingle asked.

"Since we agreed to come here to enjoy the flowers today, let's go over there first!" Li Beixing said, pointing to the sea of kapok flowers not far away.

Only then did Chen Jingle notice that she was carrying a camera on her back and seemed to be planning to take a few photos.

Li Beixing noticed his gaze and asked with a smile, "Do you know how to use it?"

"Yes." Chen Jingle nodded.

"That's good." Li Beixing smiled and handed the camera to Chen Jingle. He had thought that if he didn't know how to use it, he could teach him how to use it.

It would be a shame if I didn’t take some photos to commemorate such a beautiful scenery, so I brought my camera with me.

Chen Jingle looked down and asked in surprise, "Hasselblad X2D?"

Good guy!
A camera with a lens worth 10 yuan!
It seems that Li Beixing's family is much richer than he imagined.

Li Beixing was slightly stunned and a little uneasy. He didn't expect Chen Jingle to recognize the brand and model of the camera at a glance: "Actually, I bought it when I was in college. I don't use it much. For someone like me with average photography skills, a mobile phone is enough, and it's also convenient to edit photos with a mobile phone."

Chen Jingle laughed: "With this, it's hard not to make a movie."

This thing is completely different in the hands of others and in his hands. It is like a super master getting a peerless sword, which can be described as adding wings to a tiger.

……

Li Beixing was right, this sea of kapok flowers was really beautiful.

In fact, many silk cotton trees have already begun to bloom, but they have not yet reached full bloom.

Even so, the entire Gougongzhang Park still looks like a pink ocean.

When I came here to attend the food festival last Saturday, there were only a few scattered shops and not so many people were open. But in just a few days, it has completely changed.

Chen Jingle was amazed.

This sea of pink flowers attracted many citizens to come and take photos and check in. At present, there are many citizens like them who come to the park to enjoy the flowers and take a walk.

Chen Jingle was not in a hurry to take pictures, but instead strolled side by side with Li Beixing in this pink ocean.

Li Beixing secretly glanced at Chen Jingle's expression, trying to see through his inner thoughts at the moment, but unfortunately Chen Jingle just looked around and occasionally showed a little surprise.

She asked doubtfully, "Is this your first time seeing me?"

Chen Jingle nodded: "Yes, I was studying and working in the provincial capital before, and I was not at home when the kapok trees were in full bloom, so I have never seen it with my own eyes or experienced it myself."

"how do you feel?"

"very beautiful!"

Chen Jingle nodded and smiled.

This should be one of the few highlight projects of the municipal government.

Li Beixing also smiled, retracted his gaze, put his hands behind his back, and walked briskly. When passing by the largest kapok tree, he subconsciously stopped and looked up. At that moment, his profile and the scenery behind him formed a strong contrast between reality and illusion.

This scene seems to be a classic scene often seen in animations.

Chen Jingle seized the fleeting inspiration, took a step back, pressed the shutter, and recorded this moment.

Li Beixing heard the shutter sound, turned around, and looked surprised.

Chen Jingle waved his hand: "Don't worry about me, just show yourself to your heart's content."

After hearing what he said, Li Beixing felt uncomfortable and said with a smile: "No hurry, let me see how you take the photo first."

Chen Jingle raised his eyebrows: "It seems that you don't trust my skills."

“No.” Li Beixing covered his mouth and chuckled. How bad could a person who could recognize the Hasselblad X2D at a glance be?

I just wanted to see myself in Chen Jingle's eyes.

When she came closer and saw the photo she had just taken, she was very surprised and said, "Hey, it's so beautiful?!"

It was much more brilliant than she had imagined!

Chen Jingle chuckled: "It's not that my skills are so great, but that you just look like this."

Ok? !

Li Beixing was stunned and a little shy. It was really hard for him to think of such a straightforward compliment.

Chen Jingle realized that his words were a bit provocative after he finished speaking, and scratched his head: "Well, I'm not deliberately complimenting you, I'm just describing a fact. After all, the camera won't lie."

Well, Li Beixing’s face became even hotter.

But his serious look didn't give people the impression that he was frivolous at all.

This guy is really...

Who can resist a handsome face that is exactly in your heart, and who praises you in various ways, and the praise comes from the heart?

She felt like she was about to sink into it.

He quickly turned his head and said, "Let's continue taking pictures."

Chen Jingle looked away awkwardly, adjusted his mood a little, and then continued to pick up the camera.

……

As the shutter button kept being pressed, Li Beixing gradually relaxed and was no longer as reserved as at the beginning.

Under Chen Jingle's lens, she displays a vigorous vitality that she rarely shows in front of outsiders.

Every frown and smile is dazzling.

Great shot!

Li Beixing never thought that he would look so good in front of the camera.

She rarely laughs so happily, even a little wanton. Usually in front of everyone, she is a very quiet and ladylike image.

It’s not a contrast, it’s just that it’s a little different from the past.

"Change the background, come over here."

Chen Jingle said to Li Beixing.

I’m getting a bit bored of shooting in the same place all the time.

After accepting his new identity, he devoted himself to it wholeheartedly.

It's so rare to have such a good model and such good equipment. It would feel like a waste if I didn't take more photos today.

Even though you take so many photos, you still have to slowly select them later. Usually, you have to pick out the best ones from hundreds of photos and then do photo editing.

A photographer's job is not easy.

However, Chen Jingle felt that with Li Beixing's conditions and his skills, there was no need for any repairs in the later stages.

"How about these?"

Chen Jingle showed Li Beixing the results of his work.

After reading it, Li Beixing nodded with satisfaction: “Very good!”

"It's OK as long as you can accept it."

Chen Jingle chuckled.

"Wait a moment!"

Li Beixing suddenly called out.

Chen Jingle was puzzled.

Li Beixing looked at him, smiled, and said, "Don't just take pictures of me, take some pictures of the two of us together."

amount……

Chen Jingle scratched his head: "Okay."

He is only good at taking pictures of others, but he is a bit at a loss when it comes to taking pictures of himself.

This had already been demonstrated when Li Beixing accompanied him to pick up the car.

They took a photo together at that time.

Even so, at this moment, standing together again and facing the camera, Chen Jingle was still a little nervous.

The two stood side by side, Li Beixing smiled, noticing his unnaturalness and finding it very interesting. I thought he would always be so calm and generous, but it seems that's not always the case.

Chen Jingle set the continuous shooting mode. After it started, except for his slightly stiff expression, Li Beixing posed in various photo poses, smiling brightly, and danced around him like a colorful butterfly.

I didn't stop until the continuous shooting mode ended.

OK, just come back and choose slowly.

Chen Jingle rubbed his nose and barely got out of the unnatural state.

Just then, two little girls wearing JK came over:
"Hello beautiful lady, excuse me."

Li Beixing looked up in surprise, and Chen Jingle also looked over.

I only heard one of the girls with a princess cut haircut shyly said: "Can you ask your boyfriend to take a few photos for us? Just use my phone."

Boyfriend?!
Li Beixing's face was flushed from his neck to his ears.
