Espionage: I Have Photo Editing Software

The east is turning white.

Wei Renming sat listlessly by the window, his eyes vacant.

Just last night, his life underwent a dramatic change.

He killed someone.

Even if Hou Hong wanted to kill him.

Even if he was forced into it.

But in the end, he still killed someone.

The events of the past two weeks have left him powerless to resist, forcing him to accept his fate and be pushed forward.

Am I destined to spend the rest of my life like this, with my tail between my legs?

He suddenly remembered what Dai Li had said: "What you seem to have encountered by chance or innocence is actually inevitable."

Yes!

When the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact.

"Ha, how laughable that I was dreaming of making a fortune and enjoying life, unable to even understand such a simple truth!"

Now, he has three paths before him:

1. Surrender.

Second, concealment.

3. Escape.

If he chooses to turn himself in, then the best outcome for him, who has no power or influence, is to spend the rest of his life in prison.

Choosing to conceal it means spending the rest of your life as a dog for the Japanese to keep the secret.

If you choose to run away, where can you run to? Leave your hometown, live a life of hiding your identity, and keep a low profile?

He may not become rich, but he must at least live like a human being.

None of these three conditions were what he wanted.

Therefore, he chose option four:

He took the initiative, killed Lin Yi, and killed everyone who stood in his way to a happy life.

Since my hands are already stained with blood, what harm is there in getting a little more?

"First of all, I haven't provoked anyone. Since you've messed with me, let's see who has the last laugh!"

If someone with such a powerful advantage is still submissive and easily bullied, they'll be trampled on by anyone. They might as well just kill themselves.

"I'm ten times stronger when I'm corrupted; I'm terrifyingly powerful now!"

Wei Renming slammed his fist on the windowsill and growled in a low voice:

"I'm going to take on ten! Women!"

"Creak..." The shop door was pushed open, and Feng Xiaotian stood at the door, looking bewildered.

"Ahem, why are you here so early? It's not even seven o'clock yet!"

Wei Renming put his hands behind his back and rubbed them vigorously.

Feng Xiaotian pretended not to have seen what had just happened, bent down to fold up the folding bed, and stuffed it under the counter.

"I was thinking of having guests this morning, so I came early to prepare."

Wei Renming took out a dollar and handed it to Feng Xiaotian, saying:

"You haven't eaten yet, have you? Go buy two breakfasts."

"Breakfast shouldn't cost that much," Feng Xiaotian shook his head and refused.

"From now on, you'll be in charge of buying breakfast. Let me know when you run out of money," Wei Renming said.

Feng Xiaotian pursed his lips. He knew in his heart that Wei Renming was doing this on purpose because he was afraid that he would not eat breakfast.

"Brother Wei, my dad said to let my sister come and help out at the shop."

"Oh? How old is she?"

"He's thirteen now, old enough to do things."

"Okay, have her come over later!"

Wei Renming thought of Wei Renyi.

He decided to wait until Xue Wan paid the bill and then immediately go to redeem Wei Renyi from her servitude.

Nine o'clock in the morning.

Xue Wan arrived on time, with Xue Ning following behind, carrying a bag of clothes.

Wei Renming had long noticed that although the two women shared the same surname and seemed to be sisters, they actually had a clear hierarchy. Xue Ning always put Xue Wan first, and was more like a bodyguard.

"So many clothes, are they all Miss Xue's favorites?" Wei Renming asked with a smile.

Xue Wan gave a slightly embarrassed smile, "I plan to select one of the finished prints and submit it to 'Liangyou' magazine, so I prepared a few extra outfits."

"Oh? Miss Xue, we really are on the same wavelength, thinking the same thing." Wei Renming had originally had the same idea.

At this time, the monthly circulation of "The Young Companion" was stable at around 40,000 copies, and its influence was very large.

If his photographs could grace the cover of the "Liangyou" monthly magazine, it would certainly help him quickly gain fame.

It's just that getting a cover photo isn't so easy.

The cover photos feature female entertainment stars, wealthy and beautiful women, and new professional women, as well as specific people or celebrities.

Such as Madam Sun, Hu Die, Zheng Pingru, etc.

He was confident in his skills, but he didn't know if Xue Wan met the requirements.

"May I ask where Miss Xue works?"

Xue Wan smiled shyly and said, "It's not a high position; I work as an accountant at a bank."

Wei Renming felt more confident.

"Alright, without taking up any more of your time, let's start filming!"

"Okay." Xue Wan took the clothes and walked into the simple fitting room, then pulled down the curtain.

Xue Ning stood guard outside, watching Wei Renming warily.

Wei Renming was speechless. He had photographed countless beautiful women in his previous life. Was it really necessary to peep on them?

A moment later, Xue Wan changed into a well-fitting cheongsam and walked out slowly. Her figure was slender, and as she walked, the hem of her skirt swayed slightly, inadvertently revealing her snow-white skin, which made people's imaginations run wild.

"Indeed. The gentle beauty of women from Jiangnan is perfectly embodied in Miss Xue." Even Wei Renming, a man of great experience, couldn't help but offer a word of praise.

Faced with the praise, Xue Wan smiled shyly, exuding endless charm.

"Xiaotian, set up the set and lighting, let's begin filming."

Taking photos is a tedious process.

Fortunately, Xue Wan was quick to understand. Wei Renming only needed to say a few words for her to be able to strike the corresponding pose, saving him a lot of effort.

An hour later, all five outfits were photographed.

Wei Renming is doing well, but Xue Wan is showing signs of fatigue.

"I'll work overtime today, and I can pick up the photos tomorrow!"

"Okay," Xue Wan said excitedly.

As the two were about to leave, Wei Renming spoke up:

"We have an outfit in the store. Ms. Xue Ning, would you be interested in taking a picture with it?"

"Me?" Xue Ning's expression was somewhat unnatural.

"Yes, this outfit suits your style perfectly." Wei Renming gestured for Feng Xiaotian to fetch the outfit, saying:

"This is a women's suit that I specially commissioned a tailor to make. Although the materials are a bit inferior, the finished product will definitely look good."

"I won't film!" Xue Ning quickened her pace and was about to leave.

"Sister Xiaoning," Xue Wan said, taking Xue Ning's hand, "just give it a try."

Wei Renming chuckled, "Miss Xue Ning, are you scared?"

These days, a woman wearing a suit is like a man wearing a floral dress in later generations—it would cause controversy.

This suit was custom-made by Wei Renming on his own initiative.

A topic needs to generate buzz to stay relevant.

He needs popularity to become famous.

"You're the one who's scared! I just don't want you to make money through dishonest means!" Xue Ning retorted.

"Free!" Wei Renming waved his hand and said generously.

Xue Ning has short, ear-length hair and a somewhat androgynous style, making her a very suitable model.

"Hmph!" Xue Ning turned her face away and snorted coldly.

Finally, after Xue Wan's persistent pleading, she reluctantly agreed.

Xue Ning went into the fitting room and came out wearing a suit.

She is 1.7 meters tall, and her already upright figure is made even more dashing by her clothes.

A hint of unease lingered between her clear, handsome features, making her seem like a naive, mature woman.

"Great, great! That's the style!"

Wei Renming's eyes lit up.

Xue Ning's style is rare even in later generations.

If he wore glasses, black stockings, and a pointer in his hand... the image would be simply too beautiful.

About ten minutes later, Wei Renming finished filming, clutching the thirty yuan balance he had just received, and headed towards the Japanese-owned Gongda Cotton Mill.

He was going to redeem Wei Renyi from her servitude.
