After Transmigrating into a Book, I Had a Flash Marriage with the Beautiful Crazy Villain - Chapter 46.3

Ning Hongmian frowned thoughtfully. “It feels like something’s not quite there.”

Chu Ling agreed. She checked the weather forecast and noticed a sunny day with rising temperatures coming up.

“Yeah, I think so too. How about we reshoot on a sunny day? But are you free then?”

Ning Hongmian immediately patted her chest. “Of course, I am!”

Chu Ling smiled. “Then let’s call it a day for now and head back.”

Ning Hongmian nodded and helped pack up their things.

As they were tidying up, Chu Ling’s phone buzzed. She pulled it out and saw a message from Song Qingyi.

【Song Qingyi: Is it over?】

【Ling Ling Qi: Yep, it’s done. We’re about to head back.】

【Song Qingyi: Alright, come out then.】

Chu Ling: “???”

She froze for a second before hurriedly sending a reply.

【Ling Ling Qi: What do you mean? Did you come here?】

【Song Qingyi: Yeah, the car’s parked by the roadside. You’ll see it when you come out.】

Chu Ling was stunned. She hadn’t expected Song Qingyi to come pick them up.

Earlier, Song Qingyi had asked for the shooting location, but Chu Ling had assumed it was just out of concern for Ning Hongmian, so she’d given the address in detail.

At the time, Song Qingyi hadn’t said anything else, but now she’d actually shown up. Chu Ling was completely shocked.

Her thoughts took a wild turn was Song Qingyi worried she might do something to Ning Hongmian?

Did she really not trust her that much?

Chu Ling shook her head, dismissing the ridiculous idea.

Then she turned to Ning Hongmian and said, “Your aunt’s already here. Let’s pack up and head out.”

Ning Hongmian: “!!!”

Why is Auntie here too?!

Ning Hongmian genuinely didn’t want to interact with Song Qingyi, body or soul, mainly because her aunt was terrifying. QAQ

If she had to explain why, it probably stemmed from being disciplined as a child.

Ning Hongmian thought it was perfectly normal for kids to be mischievous when they were little, and she’d been relatively well-behaved.

But one time, when she happened to act up, Song Qingyi had caught her. Maybe her aunt had been in a bad mood that day, because she’d really given her a hard time.

Ever since then, Ning Hongmian had been deathly afraid of her aunt.

Sigh!

Just the thought of facing Song Qingyi made Ning Hongmian slow down.

Seeing her reaction, Chu Ling couldn’t help but laugh. “Your aunt really cares about you. She probably came to pick you up because she was worried about you being out alone.”

Ning Hongmian was startled. “Really? I find that hard to believe.”

She fell into deep thought.

No matter how she looked at it, this was a terrifying situation.

But she couldn’t deny that Chu Ling’s words had secretly sparked a tiny flicker of hope in her heart.

After all, even though her aunt was scary, she was also the only one in the family who ever stood up for her. Unlike her mom, she didn’t nitpick her every move.

Truth be told, Ning Hongmian’s feelings toward Song Qingyi were a mix of fear and admiration. After all, no one else in the family was as rebellious yet incredibly capable as her aunt.

She was practically the family’s breath of fresh air!

So Ning Hongmian was conflicted.

But the thought that Song Qingyi had come all this way out of concern for her made Ning Hongmian feel unexpectedly touched. She stopped dragging her feet.

And then…

Her excitement instantly deflated the moment she saw her aunt. Ning Hongmian instinctively turned as quiet as a mouse.

Because she could swear her aunt was looking at her like she was a third wheel.

Ning Hongmian glanced between the two of them, muttering to herself.

This wasn’t about picking her up at all! Clearly, Auntie was here for Chu Ling-jie!

Song Qingyi’s expression remained cold toward the third wheel, but the moment she saw Chu Ling, it softened. “Did everything go smoothly?” she asked.

Chu Ling nodded, then shook her head. “Not really. The lighting wasn’t great today. We’ll have to try again another time when it’s better.”

Song Qingyi gave a quiet hum, her mood growing even more irritable.

Ever since Chu Ling mentioned that she had asked Ning Hongmian to model for portrait photography, a restless irritation had been swirling in her heart, refusing to dissipate.
