CHAPTER 399: CHAPTER 199: SHE LOOKS TOO HIGH-END TONIGHT! (LARGE CHAPTER, PLEASE SUBSCRIBE)_2

Zhang Jingdong didn’t hand over the camera right away, but instead pointed to his legs and said, "Sit."

Yan Ning pursed her lips and, surprisingly, showed a rare hint of shyness: "I... I’m fine standing!"

At this point, Zhang Jingdong took hold of her slender hand: "Be obedient!"

Yan Ning, seeing his uncompromising look at this moment, reluctantly gave him a glare: "So domineering!"

But in the end, she actually complied obediently!

A sense of accomplishment surged in Zhang Jingdong’s heart once again.

Only then did he hand the camera to Yan Ning.

Yan Ning took the camera and started looking through the photos, soon filling her eyes with shyness and joy.

There was no helping it; every photo, whether it was the composition, lighting, or the capture of the model’s emotions in that instant, was simply perfect. She once again confirmed that Zhang Jingdong’s photography skills were indeed master level!

But when she saw the photos towards the end, although she still found herself beautifully captured, for some reason she lowered her head several times blushing uncontrollably.

And even a vague sense of restlessness began to rise in her heart.

Perhaps it was also because of certain someone’s mischievous hand.

Ten minutes later, Yan Ning suddenly stood up and glared fiercely at Zhang Jingdong: "You... this is at my company... you... you mustn’t overstep!"

Zhang Jingdong knew she wasn’t really angry now, so he replied leisurely: "From what you’re saying... not allowed at your company, that means... in the hospital tonight I can overstep, right?"

"You..."

In her urgency, Yan Ning suddenly thought of something and retorted: "Qin Yu is there tonight, I don’t believe you would dare to overstep in front of her!"

Zhang Jingdong laughed heartily: "You must really be out of options to bring her into this, alright then, you’ll just wait and see tonight!"

Zhang Jingdong felt the time was about right, then stood up and said: "Alright, since you’ve shown your stance with your actions just now, I won’t insist anymore. We’ll do as you say."

"I will arrange someone to come over tomorrow to prepare for the renovation. We’ll aim to move in within a month, is that okay?"

Yan Ning gradually regained her composure: "...No problem."

"Okay, Mr. Yan, I’ll be leaving first then... see you tonight!"

Yan Ning, seeing that he was finally leaving, breathed a sigh of relief and, ignoring his last words, reverted to her boss-like demeanor: "Alright, take care!"

Zhang Jingdong gave her a deep look, then turned and headed straight for the door.

But he had only taken a few steps when he suddenly turned back and said: "Oh, by the way, Mr. Yan, a friendly reminder to wear more clothes when you come tonight!"

"Wear more clothes? What do you mean?"

"Just as it says... you’ll know when the time comes!"

He said, with a mischievous smile on his face, and then left the office.

Yan Ning gazed at the closed door for a long time, her mind replaying his mischievous smile.

After a while, she suddenly thought of something and her face reddened instantly.

"Rascal!"

...

Zhang Jingdong left the Maple Forest Building and made a call to Qin Yu.

"Have you finished work?"

"Mhm, just got off work, what do you feel like eating tonight?"

"Let’s both head over to Chunjiang Pier now. There’s a restaurant on that cruise ship, where we can enjoy a nice meal while admiring Jiangdu’s night view, how does that sound?"

"Sounds great, and judging from your tone, you seem to be in good spirits today!"

"Just the thought of dining with my Yu makes my heart indescribably joyful, it must be what they call ’finding joy in the presence of a good companion’!"

"Mr. Zhang, your knowledge is truly extensive!"

"Joking aside, without true skills, how could I possibly win the favor of our beautiful and talented Mr. Qin!"

They chatted for a little more, then hung up the phone.

Half an hour later, Zhang Jingdong arrived at Chunjiang Pier first.

After waiting for about twenty minutes and seeing no sign of Qin Yu, he sat on the steps near the pier to enjoy the river view.

To his pleasure, in less than ten minutes, his view was graced by four or five beauties with scores above 80.

He couldn’t help but sigh: Jiangdu truly is the city of beauties!

But perhaps because the likes of Su Man, Yan Ning, and Qin Yu had raised his standards sky-high, or maybe because he knew Qin Yu would be there soon, he felt surprisingly calm and had no desire to flirt.

However, just then, a young beauty who looked around 20 years old and scored about 85 approached him.

"Handsome guy, can you take a picture for me?"

She said, raising the camera in her hand.

Zhang Jingdong turned his head and saw no sign of Qin Yu, then nodded: "Okay."

The girl found it strange that Zhang Jingdong agreed, but his lack of enthusiasm towards her was obvious.

She knew her looks and figure were lethal to any man, and she had never encountered a man with such an attitude towards her.

But just as a woman’s indifference tends to spur on a man’s pursuit, Zhang Jingdong’s coolness likewise ignited the young beauty’s desire for conquest.

Thus, she passed the camera to Zhang Jingdong and went to the riverside to strike various poses that accentuated her figure.

It’s just too bad that Zhang Jingdong had just finished taking that caliber of artistic photos for Yan Ning more than an hour ago.

To put it bluntly, compared to Yan Ning in the office just now, this young beauty in front of him was like Xi Shi imitating Chung Chuhong—a mermaid meeting Chung Chuhong from "Once a Thief".
