The backdrop can also be propped up.

Upon hearing Lin Huanming say this, Xiao Xunlan's eyes widened immediately.

Lin Huanming clearly saw that Xiao Xunlan's expression was a mixture of panic and helplessness.

"Okay, thank you, Professor Lin. I'll talk to it when I get back!" Xiao Xunlan sighed helplessly, then said to Lin Huanming, "Then I'll go find that person and ask for their portrait rights."

"Wait a minute, Xiao Xunlan." Lin Huanming called out to Xiao Xunlan, who was turning to leave, "I have another question to ask you."

“Ah, okay, Professor Lin, please ask.” Xiao Xunlan turned around and looked at Lin Huanming with a puzzled expression.

Lin Huanming took a deep breath and directly conveyed the question that had been lingering since he first saw Endless Summer to Xiao Xunlan:

Why did you use someone else's photo to make your humanoid robot?

"Huh?" Xiao Xunlan was stunned for a moment, then panicked again—she hadn't expected Lin Huanming to ask this question so suddenly and directly.

"Well, because... because..." Xiao Xunlan stammered for a long time before finally revealing her thoughts in a very soft voice, "Because I really like that person, and I also really want someone to be with me, so I secretly took a picture of him and ordered that robot online."

"And they changed the robot's face to look like his."

Hearing the answer, which was not much different from her previous guess, Lin Huanming felt her temples throbbing. She said to Xiao Xunlan, "Go and get the portrait rights quickly. If you can't get a paper document, record the conversation and then get a paper document later."

"Okay." Xiao Xunlan nodded hurriedly.

"Wait a minute," Lin Huanming called out to Xiao Xunlan again as she was about to leave, "You'll finish what you're saying, right?"

"..." Xiao Xunlan didn't speak for a moment, and Lin Huanming also stood quietly in place waiting for Xiao Xunlan's answer.

"Forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow." Lin Huanming said, heading towards the parking lot. "It's already after get off work. That person should be from our company too, he's probably already left. Go find him tomorrow."

"If you're too embarrassed to say it, find someone to accompany you."

"Oh, in that case... Professor Lin, could you come with me tomorrow at noon?" Xiao Xunlan asked nervously, rubbing her hands.

“You are the head of that human robot. I think if you go there, I should be able to obtain the image rights more smoothly.”

This time, Lin Huanming fell silent. Finally, she sighed and said, "I'll have K011 go with you."

"Thank you, Professor Lin." Having received affirmation, Xiao Xunlan took off running.

Lin Huanming shook his head, suddenly feeling a sense of familiarity with the students he used to mentor who weren't very bright.

Lin Huanming drove home, tidied himself up briefly, and then watered the succulent.

After cleaning the room and having dinner downstairs, Lin Huanming looked up at the sky, which was not yet completely dark, and felt that summer had suddenly arrived without warning.

"Oh, the weather looks nice today." Lu Renkui saw the outside through Lin Huanming's eyes. "It would be very pleasant to take a walk by the river."

"Really?" Lin Huanming fell into thought after hearing Lu Renkui's words in the consciousness space—she hadn't taken a walk by the river in a long time.

"Yes, yes, although it's quite hot today, the wind is also very strong. The wind would probably be even stronger by the river, and the temperature would be lower, so it wouldn't be too cold or too hot." Lu Renkui recalled the scene of walking along the river with her family before.

Since it's not dark yet, let's take a walk outside for a while. Hearing what Lu Renkui said, Lin Huanming suddenly had the idea of ​​walking around before going home.

So Lin Huanming walked to Youzhu Creek, which was not far from where he lived.

Although his name contains the character "Xi" (溪), Lin Huanming still felt that "He" (河) would be a more appropriate name.

Because the bamboo stream is really wide.

However, Lin Huanming couldn't suggest changing the river's name because it had been called that for 300 years.

There are special walkways along the bamboo grove to separate pedestrians and drivers to prevent accidents.

Today is a nice day, the timing is good, and there are many people coming and going in the corridor.

The wisteria planted along the walkway is in full bloom, and its refreshing fragrance wafts from the tiny purple flowers, adding a touch of sweetness to the joyful scene.

Lin Huanming walked around casually. She didn't usually go out for a stroll after get off work. If she did go out before, it was because her daughter Lin Ruoxi took her out, or she would go out for a stroll if she suddenly felt like it, but she usually wouldn't go too far.

The reason I drove to that park before was because I was upset and didn't know where else to go for a walk.

Just as Lu Renkui said, taking a walk along the river is indeed very pleasant. Lin Huanming also cleared her mind and walked along the river with the crowd heading in the same direction as her.
