Little did they know that just a few hundred meters away, a pair of SLR cameras retrofitted with high magnification lenses recorded all their interactions.
“Brother Liu!!! Brother Liu!!! We’ve captured the real thing!!!”
Behind a bush, a young paparazzi was so excited that his face flushed. The black mask covered most of his face, but nothing could hide the joy on his face.
He gnawed on the words with his teeth: “This is the real deal! Su Jin’s private meeting with a rich businessman!” He sank into a fluttering fantasy and began to calculate how much traffic he could get for the videos and photos he took today.
And the person who was lying in the bushes with him was the very master who took him —— Xiao Liu. Of course, Xiao Liu had ‘leveled up’ to ‘Brother Liu’ now. He had not only become a veteran employee of Strawberry Video, but now also started to bring his own team of children.
Recently, the news of Su Jin not attending the rehearsal of Channel B’s New Year’s Eve gala was spreading. Xiao Liu took his kiddo to lurk around Su Jin’s apartment, wanting to lie in wait outside for gossip. Who would have thought that they’d accidentally discover such a bomb!
They secretly trailed Su Jin until she arrived at the racecourse, and then twenty minutes later, Mu Xiulun’s car also drove in. The two stayed in the stables for a long time and led their horses together to the pasture for a ride…during which they laughed and joked with their bodies touching from time to time…
What was this, ah? This was Su Jin and Mu Xiulun’s ‘intimate date’, the real deal, ah!
Once this news was exposed, traffic on Strawberry Video would probably explode, no?
…There was a straight path to heaven in front of them, yet there was little joy on Xiao Liu’s face. He zoomed in and zoomed out repeatedly, looking closely at the two tiny figures on the screen.
Su Jin and Mu Xiulun were each riding a horse. They were sometimes galloping wildly and driving side by side in the pasture; sometimes dismounting and walking, leading their horses and laughing tenderly. Both of them were wearing the same riding outfit, suit, breeches, and boots; from a distance, they were the image of a couple.
The sunlight was just right today, and the rays fell under the feet of the two. When Su Jin spoke, Mu Xiulun looked at the side profile, their tacit understanding left unspoken.
“Brother Liu, this picture you took is too good! Although it is a snapshot, the expressions and actions are so clear. Even if Su Jin’s team wants to whitewash it, they can never clean it up!” The assistant photographer quickly sucked up to him: “Without prior knowledge, anyone would have thought this is a wedding photo!”
Xiao Liu: “…All right, rant less.” Xiao Liu shook his head and said in a muffled voice, “This can’t be released.”
“Ah?! Why ah!” The little assistant was confused.
Xiao Liu: “That rich businessman there is the adopted son of the Mu family, Mu Xiulun. Many people in the circle have captured irrefutable evidence before and said that Mu Xiulun was keeping Su Jin. As a result, Mu Xiulun suppressed all of them with money…”
A few months ago, Su Jin personally admitted that she and Mu Xiulun ‘broke up’ —— However, looking at the interaction between the two today, where did they look like they’ve broken up, huh? Didn’t they look f*cking look like their marriage was underway?
“…Brother Liu, then haven’t we hid here today for so long all for nothing?” The little assistant felt a bit aggrieved. Paparazzis are faring badly nowadays. This winter, they hid in the bushes for so long with their hands and feet frozen, yet the photos they took actually couldn’t be used!
“Who said our work is for nothing?” Xiao Liu knocked him on the head: “Come on, didn’t you listen to a word I just said, ah? We can’t post them online, but we can take the photos and knock on Su Jin’s agency, ah.”
After saying that, Xiao Liu again switched the camera from photo mode to video mode. He zoomed the lens closer and continued to record the interaction between Su Jin and Mu Xiulun. Photos could rely on Photoshop, but videos were ‘ironclad’. Look at how close the two horses were, so close that the two people on the horses were but an arm’s length apart. With a little initiative from one of them, they could easily get their ten fingers interlocked.
Unfortunately, the two people in the video did not take another step of intimacy, as if they were enjoying the sense of distance.
“Crap, how come there’s a bunch of kids!” The camera assistant beside him shouted with a start.
Xiao Liu was startled and quickly shushed him, “Tone down, tone down. What are you yelling for?”
“Brother Liu…look over there!” The assistant pointed to a clearing under the hillside.
The racecourse was vast, and was divided into two sections. The rear section was a VIP section dedicated to breeding and training horses for VIP customers; the front, on the other hand, was open to the public, and every weekend, many people would visit to take horse riding lessons. Today was undoubtedly a working day, but a yellow school bus marked with the name of the school pulled over with a group of primary school students. As soon as the bunch of kids with their red scarves got off the bus, they chattered non-stop and dispersed.
They were too far away to be seen with the naked eye alone. Xiao Liu used the lens as a telescope and zoomed it in for a check —— “Oh, it turns out to be an affiliated primary school to Normal University.”
……
Normal University Primary School was one of the top three key primary schools in the capital. The students not only excelled in their subjects, but also focused on the overall development of their moral, intellectual, physical, and aesthetic development. Presently, primary school students were amazing. At a young age, they learned English, Mathematical Olympiad, programming… The school also regularly sent students to visit museums.
Today, the students of Normal University Primary School were having their ‘nature lesson’. In last month’s nature class, the teacher took them to the aquarium and explained the secrets of the ocean; today, the teacher brought them to a racecourse so they could get up close and personal with these intelligent animals.
The keeper of the racecourse brought out several docile horses, some of which were elegant and dashing, and some were handsome and valiant. Under the jockeys’ leadership, the horses walked past the students in an orderly manner, their hooves sounding and stepping crisply in the dirt while splashing a cloud of dust.
The children were fascinated by these beautiful and elegant horses, and a few bold children even took the initiative to reach out and pet their bodies.
The teacher was startled and rushed to stop them. This was a horse, not a puppy or kitten. If a horse was frightened, it could kick them off with a hoof!
“It’s okay, it’s okay,” the stable keeper said, “These horses are warmblood horses we carefully selected. They are highly obedient, and have docile character. They are usually open for ordinary tourists to ride. As long as jockeys are present, it is okay for children to touch them.”
The teacher was then relieved. She looked around and suddenly asked, “Huh? I thought there were six horses. How come I only see five?” The students who came to visit were thirty-six in total. They were to be divided into six groups with the help of the jockeys to observe the horses’ physiques up close. After they go back, they’d write a 300-word observation essay with illustrations as their final assignment for the semester. But now that there was one less horse, the number of people in each group had increased. There was even a group that grew into eight people directly, but the jockeys simply couldn’t be bothered with it.
Speaking of the horse, the stable keeper apologized, “I’m really sorry, Mr. Wang. We did prepare six horses, but last week, the vet found that one horse was pregnant, so she’s now placed in the stable to rest.”
A mare’s gestation period was eleven months, and its pregnancy didn’t show until it was five months old. The horse did not show any signs of pregnancy before, and it was not known which stallion’s child was actually in her belly.
Hearing the reason, Mr. Wang nodded his head to express his understanding.
However, they did not notice that, while they were talking, the ‘eighth’ child from a certain group silently left the group with a twinkle in his eye…
