Lu Youyou sidestepped, feeling an inexplicable shyness deep within her, embarrassed at the thought of Xu Lie seeing her blushing face in the photo. However, since Xu Lie had agreed to take a group photo, she couldn't refuse to let anyone see it. She needed a temporary excuse to delay: "I... I need to adjust things first."
"You probably don't know this, but after taking a photo, girls need to carefully adjust the brightness, lighting, contrast, saturation, sharpness, and so on to make it look better."
Goodness, if the photo is adjusted according to what you said, will there be even a hint of reality left in it?
Seeing Lu Youyou eagerly adjusting the photo, Xu Lie decided not to spoil her mood with low emotional intelligence comments. But as she continued adjusting, Xu Lie sensed something was off. Lu Youyou's face, once filled with joy and her eyes crescent-shaped with delight, began to cloud over. Halfway through editing the photo, her brows furrowed silently, and the smile was slowly replaced by melancholy.
Lu Youyou, who showed no skill in hiding her emotions, had completely written her feelings on her face. What was going on? Even Xu Lie couldn't understand why Lu Youyou experienced such a drastic emotional shift in such a short time. Did someone really get upset over their own appearance?
Xu Lie tentatively asked, "Is adjusting the brightness and sharpness really that difficult?"
Lu Youyou glanced at Xu Lie with disbelief in her eyes. She flipped her wrist and allowed Xu Lie to glimpse her phone screen.
Breaking news: "Xingcheng Gene Cold Storage Explodes; Police Initially Determine It Was Caused by Ancheng Gene Building Bomber."
At first, Lu Youyou had come across many reports about the Ancheng Gene Building explosion. Each time she saw one, she clicked in for more details and even followed the updates. With big data creating an information cocoon around her, any related news would pop up as a trending topic. When she saw it connected to the Bomber and Xu Lie, she clicked in without a second thought.
Only then did she learn that just recently—possibly while she and Xu Lie were having dinner—the Xingcheng cold storage had exploded. Others who saw this news either condemned the perpetrator's insanity or expressed a desire for a swift resolution to the case. But for Lu Youyou, who was in the know, reading this news meant she could directly link it to Xu Lie.
She was just an ordinary girl without any intelligence channels; she could only trust official reports. Since the news stated that the police had made a determination, she wouldn't think there was another copycat criminal.
The joy she had felt earlier now turned into bitterness.
"You promised me you wouldn't do bad things anymore. Why did you have to deceive me?"
Perhaps Lu Youyou herself had not realized that the crux of her words was not Xu Lie's repeated offenses, but rather his deceit and betrayal of the promises made to her. The joys and sorrows of people do not resonate with one another.
While Lu Youyou was feeling sad and melancholic, the audience held differing opinions. The barrage of comments flooded Xu Lie's screen, resembling a torrential downpour.
"Did you notice? The girl figured it out already? I thought she could be kept in the dark smoothly; this production team is truly unconventional."
"Oh wow! This is interesting; now we're talking! I want to see the emotional conflict between the leads!"
"It's strange; just moments ago, the atmosphere between Xu Lie and Lu Youyou was so ambiguous, and now the production team pulls this stunt? Are they deliberately withholding sweet moments from us?"
"Logically speaking, the Explosion Case would indeed have a significant social impact, so it's quite normal for Lu Youyou to gain attention; it makes perfect sense."
"What a pity about that Group Photo. Can Xu Lie still see the blushing and shy Youyou in that picture?"
