Chapter 151: Chapter 91: Their Forms of Address
"I don’t usually wear black, so I wasn’t sure what kind to get. Does it make me look sleazy?"
"Not at all, not at all. It doesn’t look like that in the slightest. Sit on the sofa, lean your back against the armrest, stretch one leg out, and bend the other."
She lay on the sofa as instructed and struck the pose Chen Yuan wanted, though the details weren’t quite perfect.
"Let me adjust it a bit."
He gently held Jiang Wanyi’s leg, adjusted the angle, and took a quick series of shots.
Watching Chen Yuan’s focused expression, Jiang Wanyi laughed to herself.
’This little rascal is showing his true colors. He wasn’t nearly this excited when we were taking the family photos earlier.’
After finishing the shots on the sofa, he had Jiang Wanyi sit on a chair for a few more. Chen Yuan was very familiar with this pose, a classic where the shoe dangles from the foot and swings slowly.
It was absolutely lethal.
"That should be enough for now. Let’s see how they turned out."
"I have complete faith in your skills."
She leaned in to look at the photos on his camera. "They’re actually really good. Quite sexy."
"Hm? You don’t sound entirely satisfied."
"No, no, they really are shot very well..."
"Do you think they’re not sexy enough?"
"Well..."
She tucked her hair behind her ear, trying to hide her racing heart.
"We could be a little... bolder..."
It seems true that every woman dreams of a boudoir shoot, and even Jiang Wanyi was no exception.
"Any bolder, and we’d be getting into boudoir territory."
"Not that kind."
Jiang Wanyi thought for a moment before saying, "I just feel like I won’t be able to keep this figure for much longer. While I still have a waist and my butt hasn’t started to sag, I want to take some photos as a keepsake. You know what I mean?"
"I get it."
"But not the sleazy kind. Just a bit sexier is fine. Something that really shows off my figure."
"In that case..."
As Chen Yuan looked on, Jiang Wanyi said tentatively,
"Should we... shoot in the bedroom?"
He nodded lightly. "I’ll take the baby back."
Chen Yuan slung the camera behind him, turned to pick up Mili, and placed her in the stroller, handing her a small pinwheel.
"Let’s go. We’re going to watch Mommy take pictures."
Mili sat in her stroller, flashing a toothy little grin and waving her pinwheel.
To avoid disrupting the shoot, he left Mili by the doorway.
Fortunately, Mili was very well-behaved. She didn’t cry or fuss, focusing on playing with her little pinwheel.
"I’ll strike a pose, you copy me."
"Okay."
Chen Yuan lay on the bed, striking a pose designed to showcase the body to its fullest potential.
Never mind doing it herself; just watching Chen Yuan strike the pose made Jiang Wanyi feel it was sexy.
"I’ll try..."
She said she would try, but she hesitated to move.
"What’s wrong? Did you forget the pose?"
"I’m a little embarrassed..."
"We’re just taking these for you, anyway. If you’re too embarrassed, we don’t have to. We can always do it later when you feel like it."
"I’m not embarrassed to do the pose. I’m embarrassed because *she’s* here."
"What’s wrong with Mili being here?"
Jiang Wanyi was too embarrassed to describe the feeling...
It felt like a husband and wife were in the bedroom doing *it*, with their child watching from the side.
But she couldn’t possibly explain this feeling to Chen Yuan.
"Not a problem. I’ll just wheel her out and put her by the door. You can pose in the bedroom, and I can take your picture while still keeping an eye on her."
"Smart."
Chen Yuan moved the baby to the doorway. Recalling the pose he had just shown her, Jiang Wanyi half-reclined on the bed.
As soon as she struck the pose, Jiang Wanyi felt a flicker of shame.
But to get the photos she wanted as a keepsake, she decided to just go for it.
’If it weren’t for Chen Yuan, I probably would have gone my whole life without ever taking this kind of photo.’
He returned to the bedroom and helped Jiang Wanyi adjust her pose.
"Ba... baba..."
Mili’s cooing turned into a whine. She was unsettled by Chen Yuan leaving her side.
"Be good, Mili. Mommy and Daddy will be done in just a second. Wait just a little longer..."
In an instant, Jiang Wanyi’s face flushed red.
’Why does that sound so much like we’re doing *it*?’
"Quick, quick, we need to hurry. The baby’s going to lose her patience soon."
Her face grew even redder. ’Now it sounds even more like it.’
He helped Jiang Wanyi perfect her posture and pressed the shutter, taking a few shots.
"Nice."
"Okay, next pose..."
For the next ten minutes or so, Chen Yuan was completely worn out, juggling Jiang Wanyi on one side and Mili on the other.
"You must be tired from all the work."
Jiang Wanyi got off the bed, pulled out a wet wipe, and handed it to Chen Yuan.
"Wipe your sweat..."
The moment the words left her mouth, Jiang Wanyi regretted them.
’We were just taking a few pictures, so why does it feel like we actually did *it*?’
After wiping the sweat from his forehead, Chen Yuan went out to soothe Mili, lifting her out of the stroller.
"You don’t want to stay in there anymore, do you?"
"Aaaah—"
"Daddy’s got you."
Chen Yuan carried the baby out, placed her in the playpen, and stayed with her.
Jiang Wanyi came out a while later, having taken off the cheongsam and changed into a comfortable nightgown.
"Quick, let me see the ones you just took."
She came over to the playpen and sidled up next to Chen Yuan.
"These photos you took..."
Jiang Wanyi covered her mouth and laughed, a shy blush creeping onto her cheeks. "This is the first time I’ve ever taken photos like this. I’m getting embarrassed just looking at them."
"Photos like these are for your private viewing only. I’ll send them to you later."
"Mhm."
"It’s getting late. Let’s give her a bath first. Things will be easier once she’s asleep."
"No rush." Jiang Wanyi swept her hair back to tidy herself up a bit. "We can’t just take pictures of me and the baby. Show me how to use the camera; I want to take a few of you two."
Chen Yuan thought about it. ’That could work.’
"Let me adjust the settings first. Then all you’ll have to do is press the shutter button."
