great photographer

He felt a little bit reluctant to rent a house, and he didn't know where to start packing.

Hou Jiahao told him not to worry about the accommodation in Yanjing, saying that he could send the large luggage to Liang Xiaomei first, and then move in directly after finding a house.However, Du Ziqing didn't have any big luggage, and the assembled desktop computer was inconvenient to take away. He planned to dispose of it. After all, he had received a bonus of 10 yuan, so it was time to update the equipment.

As for other daily necessities such as pots, pans and pans, there is no need to take them to Yanjing. The winter in the south is not cold at all, and there are no heavy clothes, so after packing for a long time, Du Ziqing found that all his belongings can be packed in a large suitcase. It can be finished.

Qian Shang gave him a week to move, but he packed it up in half a day.Du Ziqing was not in a hurry to go to Yanjing. After all, he had lived in this small county for eight years, and he still had some feelings.

The next day, Du Ziqing went to the mountain to sweep his father's grave, then bought two bottles of soju, and said goodbye to the studio owner.

Du Ziqing had only left for a few days, and there was already a young man in the studio.He thought it was the boss's new photography assistant, but he didn't expect to be a relative of the boss.

"This is my nephew. He couldn't pass the high school entrance examination, so he came to show me the store."

The boss was also very happy to see Du Ziqing come back, and told his nephew to close the shop, and then went to a restaurant with Du Ziqing.

"I thought you wouldn't come back after you went. I didn't expect to see you again." The boss clinked glasses with Du Ziqing. He knew that Du Ziqing was going to receive the award, so he thought that the last time was a formal farewell.

"I don't think I've officially resigned yet."

"If you haven't resigned now, I will also drive you away. I can't afford a photographer of your worth."

Du Ziqing smiled, and clinked glasses with the boss again: "I came back to pack my things, it may be really difficult to see you again in the future."

"Life is a constant parting." The boss sighed, and then asked: "How is it, how does it feel to go back?"

"It's okay, I still feel quite familiar when I go back."

"After all, you were born and raised there, and your relatives and friends are all there, so you must be familiar with it."

"That's true." Du Ziqing nodded.

"But the girl from the chicken farm is going to be sad."

Du Ziqing smiled awkwardly, then put away his expression, and said seriously: "Thank you for the past eight years, boss."

"Thank you for what, I thank you before it's too late, how much money you've saved me."

"Didn't the saved wages be sent back during the Chinese New Year?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" The boss laughed.

"And... when my father was ill, if you hadn't been the guarantee for me, other folks would not have been willing to lend me money."

"It happened several years ago." The boss sighed, "It's not easy for you, so cherish the opportunity now."

Du Ziqing chatted with the boss until after two o'clock in the afternoon. After saying goodbye, he took his camera and went shopping on the mountain.By the time he returned to the rental house, the sun was about to set.

As he went upstairs, he looked back at the photos on the camera monitor, and as he was walking, he suddenly bumped into a solid wall of flesh.

Looking up, before he could say "I'm sorry", Du Ziqing was startled by the person in front of him.

"Hou...why are you here?"

"Why don't you bring your mobile phone?" Hou Jiahao asked with a calm face.

Du Ziqing didn't answer the phone all the time, he finally found his place according to the address, but unexpectedly found that the phone was ringing in the house.He knocked on the door for a long time, until the next door got impatient, and then came out and told him that Du Ziqing might have gone to the photo studio.

He ran to the photo studio to look for it again, but the photo studio was closed. After inquiring for a long time, he finally found the owner of the photo studio in a mahjong parlor not far away.However, the boss said that Du Ziqing had gone out to collect folk songs, and he didn't know when he would be back, so he had to go back to the door of the rental house and wait.

"No one usually looks for me..." Du Ziqing was indeed innocent.He looked at Hou Jiahao, who was wearing a sports suit and dragging a small suitcase behind him, he was a little confused about the situation, and asked, "Why are you here?"

"I'll help you move."

"Moving?" Du Ziqing said inexplicably, "I finished packing yesterday."

"Then why haven't you contacted me?"

"...Didn't you start working next week?"

"You can also come here first to familiarize yourself with the environment."

Du Ziqing looked at Hou Jiahao's frowning, and asked with some uncertainty: "Are you afraid that I won't pass?"

"After all, you have a criminal record."

Du Ziqing thought it was a little funny, but didn't say much.

"It's a bit of a mess in the room, don't mind."

After Hou Jiahao entered the room, his brows frowned even tighter.There wasn't even a single floor tile on the floor, just bare concrete, and the walls were pitted and stained everywhere.He couldn't imagine that Du Ziqing had lived in such a simple place for eight years.

"I actually don't have anything to bring. I plan to deal with the computer, these pots and pans, quilts and so on tomorrow."

Hou Jiahao sat down on the chair without saying a word, and soon found an old-fashioned Olympus camera on the desk.

"You still keep it." Hou Jiahao picked up the camera and looked at it. When he was a child, he thought he was quite big, but now it seems that he is no more than the size of a palm.

"It's been a long time since I haven't used it." Du Ziqing glanced at the camera calmly, "Because I'm about to move, so I packed it up."

"And this." Hou Jiahao picked up a yellowed photo on the desk, and looked at the person in the photo with complicated eyes.

This was the first photo of him and Du Ziqing. Even now, the child in the photo was very cute.

Du Ziqing quickly took back the photo from Hou Jiahao's hand, put it upside down on the desk, and changed the subject, "Have you eaten yet?"

"Nope, what about you."

"No, let's go out and eat."

There are not many restaurants in the small county, so Du Ziqing went to the one where he had lunch with the boss again.

He ordered some home-cooked food. Seeing him again, the restaurant owner joked, "Why don't you drink tonight?"

Du Ziqing just twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, but did not answer.

"You want to drink?" Hou Jiahao asked.

"Drank some with the owner of the photo studio at noon."

A complex feeling suddenly surged in Hou Jiahao's heart.At least eight years ago, he dared to say that he knew everything about Du Ziqing very well, but now he didn't have the confidence.

After dinner, the two walked back. Only then did Du Ziqing suddenly think of a question.

"Are you staying here tonight?"

"I'll go back to Yanjing with you."

It means that as long as you stay here, I will stay as long as possible.

"But... the nearest hotel is three kilometers away."

"Can't I live with you?"

"Ah?" Du Ziqing said quickly, "There is only one bed at my place."

It is still a small bed 1.5 meters wide.

Hou Jiahao frowned slightly: "Do you have the heart for me to drag a suitcase and walk several kilometers to find accommodation?"

"..."

Whether you can bear it or not, it doesn't make sense.Yu Qing, Hou Jiahao is his elder brother who grew up with him since he was a child, and he has been kind to him for more than ten years, so it is naturally impossible for him to drive him away; It may be possible to let people find accommodation by themselves.

"Then... alright." Du Ziqing comforted himself, it's okay, I can still make the floor.

After washing up, Hou Jiahao didn't mind changing into cotton pajamas and pajamas in front of Du Ziqing. Although Du Ziqing consciously turned his face away, he caught sight of the firm breasts out of the corner of his eye.

He blushed slightly, and in order to divert his attention, he asked, "Are you still practicing Sanda?"

"In the past few years, I have played more free combat."

"Oh..." Du Ziqing continued his movements.

"What are you doing?" Hou Jiahao asked with a frown.

"On the floor, I sleep on the floor."

"How do you sleep on such a hard concrete floor?"

"It's okay, just put some more clothes on."

"Go to bed."

"It's okay, you go to bed."

"Of course I want to sleep on the bed." Hou Jiahao raised his eyebrows, as if it was a matter of course, "You go up to me too."

"But I can't sleep." Du Ziqing didn't think about anything else, he really just couldn't sleep.

"How do you know if you don't try?"

"I remember you were 1.8 meters five in high school..."

"Do you want me to carry you up?" Hou Jiahao interrupted Du Ziqing with an expression that didn't look like he was joking at all.

"..."

Du Ziqing almost forgot that his brother was very domineering. When he was a child, he would fight for him without saying a word, and he would not let him suffer any grievances.After getting older, although there were fewer fights, his temper was still as domineering as ever. Whether he wanted it or not, as long as it was good, he would definitely force it into his hands.

Seeing that Du Ziqing was squatting and did not respond, Hou Jiahao took a step forward, making a gesture to get him up, Du Ziqing quickly stood up and retreated to the bed.

"Okay, okay."

If you insist on sleeping in the same bed, you can only squeeze together.Du Ziqing frowned. Although it had been eight years since that incident, it didn't mean he didn't mind.

Hou Jiahao seemed to see through his thoughts, sighed slightly and said, "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you."

"...Mmm." Du Ziqing responded softly.

In fact, except that Hou Jiahao mentioned that incident when they first met, the two of them tried to avoid mentioning it afterward.But in this situation, if both of them pretend that nothing happened, it would be unreasonable and self-deceiving.

So what Hou Jiahao said made Du Ziqing feel at ease.He thought about it, too, at that time Hou Jiahao was drunk and the two of them would be like that, now maybe Hou Jiahao can't even remember the love words he said, so why should he be embarrassed?

Du Ziqing put away the half-made mattress, tidied up the things to be dealt with tomorrow, and then climbed into bed early.He tried his best to stick to the wall, leaving enough space for Hou Jiahao.

Eleven o'clock passed quickly, and Hou Jiahao was still dealing with things with the MacBook he brought.He looked back at Du Ziqing, saw that he was quietly closing his eyes, and seemed to be asleep, so he turned off the light lightly, hugged the computer, lifted the thin quilt, and came to the bed.

☆、Chapter 18

very nice.

The hand that replied the email stopped suddenly, and then quickly deleted the two extra words on the screen.

Hou Jiahao turned his head to look at Du Ziqing who was sleeping next to him. The two words he couldn't help but typed just now perfectly expressed his mood at the moment——

very nice.

Du Ziqing was lying on his side, originally his body was facing inward, but when Hou Jiahao went to bed just now, he turned over in a daze, and now he was facing Hou Jiahao, with half of his face buried in the quilt.

Hou Jiahao gently tucked down the quilt, tidied up the broken hair on his forehead, and then stared at Du Ziqing's sleeping face in the dim light of the computer screen.

Eight years later, Du Ziqing no longer had the youthful aura of the past, but he was still fatally attracted to him.

In the past, the little face that I always thought was very cute, now has a kind of calmness that seems to have been washed away.

He reluctantly withdrew his hand from the soft hair, just wanting to finish the work in hand as soon as possible.

After closing the computer, the dim light disappeared, leaving only the moonlight pouring down through the gaps in the curtains in the room, making this simple rental house shrouded in a hazy atmosphere.

Hou Jiahao lay down flat, facing his stomach, and greedily swept every inch of his skin with his eyes.I don't know how long it took, maybe it was as long as a century, or maybe it was only a second, Hou Jiahao slowly raised his chin and moved forward.

Just one click, just one click.

Her lips pressed against his, trembling slightly.

Hou Jiahao held his breath carefully, for fear of waking Du Ziqing.He slowly closed his eyes, enjoying the moment.

Just one more second, just one more second.

"Hmm..." Du Ziqing snorted softly, then moved and turned to face inside.

The action without warning made Hou Jiahao's nerves tense, but when he found that Du Ziqing hadn't woken up, he was relieved, and smiled self-deprecatingly: "What am I doing?"

With Du Ziqing's back turned to him, he did not move. He moved forward, then put his arms around Du Ziqing's waist, and held him in his arms.

His heart was filled with a sense of satisfaction, but at this moment, Hou Jiahao suddenly found that Du Ziqing's breathing was not as steady as before, and even flustered.

"Did I wake you up?" he asked in a low voice.

Tempting words seemed to be submerged in the night, without any response.But at this moment, their chests were pressed against their backs, and Hou Jiahao could feel how fast Du Ziqing's heart was beating.

He did wake up.

When turning over just now, Du Ziqing just felt a little stuffy, and didn't find anything wrong.But when he was about to fall asleep again, he found that Hou Jiahao seemed to be hugging him in the haze, which made him fully awake.

Hou Jiahao's body was so hot that even he became hot as well.

"Sorry to wake you up." Hou Jiahao said, but didn't take his hand away.

"...Is it crowded over there?" Du Ziqing asked uncertainly, and he didn't know why Hou Jiahao stuck to him so tightly.

Hou Jiahao turned his head slightly, glanced at the edge of the bed where there was still a lot of space, and said without changing his face, "Well, it's about to fall."

"Oh." Du Ziqing moved in, almost touching the wall.Seeing that he was uncomfortable like this, Hou Jiahao didn't stick close to him.

It's just that his hand was still resting on his waist seemingly unintentionally.

"Go to sleep, get rid of things tomorrow morning, and we'll go back to Yanjing in the afternoon."

"Hmm..." Du Ziqing responded casually, the hand on his waist was really too strong, it was hard for him not to care.

I don't know how long he was frozen, but there was a steady breathing sound from behind, and Du Ziqing turned his head carefully, only to see Hou Jiahao's expression was very calm, he seemed to be asleep.

The shoulders were already sore, Du Ziqing gently lifted Hou Jiahao's arm, turned over, and lay flat on the bed.He put his arm back to Hou Jiahao's side, then raised his head subconsciously to see if he had woken Hou Jiahao.

But when I saw it, I couldn't take my eyes off it.

Hou Jiahao looks really good-looking.With three-dimensional facial features and a high bridge of nose, in Du Ziqing's eyes, no one is more beautiful than him.

Obviously the person in front of him is so close to him, but somehow it feels so far away.

Just let him be greedy again.

Du Ziqing moved his shoulders in Hou Jiahao's direction, then raised his head slightly, and slowly moved closer.

The lips that had been bonded together not long ago were stuck together again.

Just one click.

Du Ziqing quickly retracted his chin, turned over to face the wall again with a blushing heartbeat, in order to calm down the restlessness and uneasiness in his heart.

His movements seemed to disturb the person behind him, who stretched out his hand unconsciously, and wrapped him in his arms again.

Early the next morning, when Du Zi woke up, he found himself sleeping in Hou Jiahao's arms.He got up quickly, only to see that Hou Jiahao had already woken up, and was browsing the news with his mobile phone in his other hand.

"Are you awake?" Hou Jiahao turned off the screen and sat up.

"Well... I didn't crush you, did I?" Du Ziqing looked at Hou Jiahao's arm with a bit of guilt, and somehow fell asleep in his arms.

As everyone knows, when Hou Jiahao woke up, looking at the person sleeping peacefully beside him, he managed to suppress the fire in his lower abdomen, but he still couldn't hold back his shoulders and let him sleep in his arms.

However, it seemed that Du Ziqing hadn't noticed this, and thought he had brought it together on his own initiative.

"It's okay, didn't you often sleep in my arms like this when you were a child?"

"How can there be?" Du Ziqing was taken aback for a moment, wondering why this man was talking nonsense with his eyes open, but in the next second, he was like an overcooked shrimp, "Only, just three times."

"Counting this time, it's four times."

"..."

Du Ziqing didn't want to continue this topic anymore, he got up and got out of bed, but at this moment the strange feeling from his lower body made him sit back immediately.

Seeing Du Ziqing covering key parts with a thin quilt, with an embarrassed look on his face, Hou Jiahao curled the corners of his mouth and said with a smile in his eyes, "It's quite energetic."

"...I want you to take care of it." Du Ziqing heard the teasing meaning, blushed and looked at the ground, thinking that there would be a seam in the ground so that he could get in.

Hou Jiahao asked again: "Do you need my help?"

"Huh?" Du Ziqing's mind went blank for an instant.

Hou Jiahao is teasing him?

……

Does he look ridiculous in his eyes?

Thinking of what happened in the past, Du Ziqing could only think so.

Seeing that Du Ziqing frowned, obviously becoming angry from embarrassment, Hou Jiahao quickly put away his indecent expression, trying to explain something, but in the end he could only say sorry.

He got up and got out of bed, leaving some free space for Du Ziqing: "I'll go wash up first."

Obviously, in order to make him stop thinking, he even specially found a girlfriend, but now he says something that catches his imagination, what does it mean?

Du Ziqing looked at the ground, and it took a while to calm down the anger in his heart.

But after calming down, Du Ziqing felt that his reaction was a little too much.

He can joke with himself like this, which shows that he doesn't care about the original matter at all.It's perfectly normal for ordinary good brothers to joke around like this.On the contrary, he was too sensitive.

Thinking of the kiss last night, Du Ziqing fell into deep self-spite.

After a while, Du Ziqing sighed and said, "I'll go down and buy breakfast first."

"Wait, let me go with you."

Hou Jiahao had finished washing up here, and Du Ziqing didn't want to be too deliberate, so he didn't refuse, and acquiesced to Hou Jiahao to go with him.

There is a bun shop not far downstairs, and Wang Po sells tea eggs next to the bun shop.

After finally catching Du Ziqing, Wang Po didn't notice a stranger standing beside her, so she asked, "Xiao Du, what do you think about that marriage?"

"Marriage?" Hou Jiahao asked in surprise.

Only then did Wang Po notice a young man standing behind Du Ziqing, and asked, "This is...?"

"My friend. I want two tea eggs, Wang Po."

Du Ziqing did not answer Wang Po's question just now.

"Okay." Wang Po tore off a small plastic bag, took out two overcooked tea eggs, and said reluctantly, "My lady is waiting for your reply."

Hou Jiahao grabbed Du Ziqing's wrist, frowned and asked, "What marriage?"

"It's nothing." Seeing Hou Jiahao's caring look, Du Ziqing felt a little funny. This is not something to gossip about, "I have already refused."

"Why don't you think about it anymore!" Wang Po took 5 yuan from Du Ziqing's hand with a look of hatred, and muttered while looking for the money: "You are so stupid, the girl's conditions are so good!"

Hearing Du Ziqing's words, Hou Jiahao was relieved, but after hearing Wang Po's words, he couldn't help being a little curious, and asked calmly, "What conditions?"

"The girl is the daughter of the big chicken farmer in the next county, and many people still look down on her!"

"Really." Hou Jiahao naturally took the plastic bag containing breakfast from Du Ziqing's hand, not wanting him to mention too many things.

"You are his friend, you can persuade him."

"Are you persuading him to raise chickens?" Hou Jiahao cast a cold glance at Wang Po, "He's a photographer."

Wang Po was overwhelmed by Hou Jiahao's aura, and her mouth, which usually spoke like a machine gun, was blocked for a while.

After the two returned to the rental house, they finally cleaned up.The quilt and some daily necessities are placed next to the trash can downstairs, and the scavengers will naturally pick them up.As for the computer, Hou Jiahao was holding the host computer, and Du Ziqing was holding the display screen. The two of them took it to a repair shop that repaired electronic products and sold it for 50 yuan.

Du Ziqing originally wanted to keep the mouse, but Hou Jiahao said, "I don't need it", and gave it to the shop owner directly.

After that, Du Ziqing cleaned the house again and asked the landlord to get back the deposit. By the time the two of them left the rental house completely, it was almost 11 o'clock.

Hou Jiahao and Du Ziqing exchanged suitcases, he took the big one, and Du Ziqing took the small one.Du Ziqing knew he couldn't resist him, so he didn't refuse.

Walking on the side of the path, Du Ziqing looked around: "We have to take a tricycle to the side of the road so that we can stop the bus to the city."

"No, just wait at the intersection ahead."

"There won't be any cars coming over there."

"I arranged a car."

Looking from a distance, a black Volkswagen has parked at the intersection, just like the one that took him to the airport last time.

Du Ziqing stopped looking for the tricycle, and followed Hou Jiahao to the side of the car.

Before getting into the car, Du Ziqing took out the Fuji card machine again, and reluctantly took the last photo of this small county town.

☆、Chapter 19

After arriving at the airport, the driver took out the two pieces of luggage from the trunk, and then handed Hou Jiahao a small black pocket.Du Ziqing didn't know what it was, and didn't care.

After checking in at the counter, Hou Jiahao took Du Ziqing to the business class lounge for a light meal, and then brought the small black bag that had been left aside to Du Ziqing.

"You take this and use it."

"Huh?" Du Ziqing opened the small pocket and saw that it was a mobile phone. He quickly pushed the small pocket back, "No need, I use this mobile phone quite well now."

Hou Jiahao knew it would not go so smoothly.

"You don't use WeChat, do you? There are many places where WeChat will be used in work in the future."

"Hmm..." Du Ziqing replied vaguely, without much reaction.If he needs WeChat, he can also buy a smartphone worth more than 1000 yuan, and Hou Jiahao doesn't need to buy it for him.

"And when you arrive in Yanjing, there are many places where you need to scan QR codes."

Du Ziqing didn't say a word.He still had the same idea that he could buy it himself.

Well, Hou Jiahao decided to switch strategies.

"Open it first and have a look." Hou Jiahao took out the phone packing box from his small black pocket, and pushed it in front of Du Ziqing again.

Only then did Du Ziqing see clearly that this phone turned out to be a Huawei P30pro.

He frowned.

Anyone in the photography circle knows how powerful this Huawei product is.Originally, a wide-angle large-aperture lens is required to capture the Milky Way, and a telephoto lens of at least 600mm or above can be used to capture a clear moon. A Huawei P30pro can handle it.

"I... I'm not used to taking pictures with my mobile phone." Du Ziqing said hesitantly.Of course, the truth is that he doesn't have a cell phone with which to take pictures either.

"Just treat it like a photo shoot." Hou Jiahao persuaded calmly, "You don't take pictures with a SLR camera, that's called photography."

Of course Du Ziqing knew.

Now that technology is more and more developed, the parameters that originally needed to be adjusted manually can now be done directly by using the shutter priority or aperture priority mode.Although some "old mages" are still firmly using manual transmission and are proud of it, many photography enthusiasts have even given up on SLRs and embraced micro-single cameras.

Although compared with traditional photography, mobile phone photography is more like "cheating", and the photos taken are actually processed by algorithms, but to be honest, various digital cameras themselves are also developing in this direction.

Du Ziqing didn't have to be interested in other things, except for things related to photography.

After thinking about it, he still couldn't resist the temptation and opened the box.

"When I go to Yanjing, I will transfer the money to you."

"No rush, you can give it to me anytime."

Hou Jiahao didn't directly refuse, he had expected that Du Ziqing would not accept free gifts.At the same time, he was also thankful that he had kept an eye out and chose a Huawei instead of an iPhone.

Du Ziqing started playing with the new phone, and anyone could see the excitement in his eyes.

After concentrating on finding out the camera function of the phone, he realized that Hou Jiahao had been looking at him.He was suddenly a little embarrassed: "Well, I'll try to take pictures of airplanes."

"Well, let's go."

Du Ziqing got up and left, Hou Jiahao looked at his back with doting eyes.

Du Ziqing ran to the huge glass window and returned to the business class lounge after taking pictures to his heart's content.After sitting down, the first thing he did was to hold the phone in front of Hou Jiahao, and said, "Look at this, you can also take time-lapse shots."

Hou Jiahao didn't look at the screen, but looked at Du Ziqing who was looking at the screen seriously.

Du Ziqing's appearance was exactly the same as when he was a child. When he found something novel, he ran over and held his hand, and said, "Brother Haohao, I'll show you something."

He subconsciously raised his hand, wanting to rub Du Ziqing's head, but he held back.

"Many mobile phones can take time-lapse pictures now."

"It's quite interesting."

Du Ziqing continued to check the photos he had just taken, while Hou Jiahao took out a phone card from his pocket and said, "Use this number from Yanjing in the future, it's more convenient."

Du Ziqing raised his head, but he didn't have much resistance to changing the phone number.

Anyway, his number has never been used much.

Hou Jiahao installed the SIM card for him, then called up the information page and said, "The last number is your birthday, so it's easier to remember."

Du Ziqing took the phone and looked at it, then subconsciously said, "It's similar to your number."

Hou Jiahao was taken aback: "Do you remember my number?"

The last four digits of Hou Jiahao's cell phone number are also his birthday, while the first seven digits are exactly the same as the one he gave Du Ziqing.

This is what he chose on purpose.

Du Ziqing immediately realized that he had slipped his mouth. He only blamed himself for being too excited about the new phone, and forgot that the relationship between the two of them was no longer what it used to be.He thought for a while and explained vaguely: "Well, I just have a little impression. Well, please help me get a WeChat account."

Hou Jiahao didn't think too much, and registered Du Ziqing's WeChat account, and then added his own WeChat account.

Hou Jiahao's car was parked in the parking lot of Yanjing Airport. It was a black Maserati with Beijing A license plate.

After picking up the luggage, Hou Jiahao took Du Ziqing straight to downtown Yanjing, and the closer he was to the city, the more uneasy Du Ziqing became. If he remembered correctly, he probably hadn't found a place to stay yet.

"Should I stay in a hotel first today?" Du Ziqing asked.

"No need." Hou Jiahao looked straight ahead, "I've already found a place for you."

"...Didn't you say let me see it myself?"

Why has it been settled?

"Don't worry, you'll like it."

The black car finally stopped beside a gray building outside the North Fifth Ring Road.While Hou Jiahao was picking up his luggage, Du Ziqing took a look around. This place is not particularly prosperous, and the surrounding buildings are a bit old. Not far away is a large shopping mall and a subway station, and a little closer is a residential area.

Hou Jiahao had already picked up his luggage, and said to Du Ziqing, who looked anxious, "Go in."

The gray building here seemed to be out of place with the surroundings, but it was getting late, and Du Ziqing couldn't see clearly, so he followed Hou Jiahao and walked into a heavy door.

It was pitch black behind the gate, and nothing could be seen.Hou Jiahao pulled the switch on the side, and then only heard a few sounds of "thump, thump, thump". The space in front of him was like a movie screen, and the overhead lights were lit up one by one, showing Du Ziqing's eyes segment by segment.

Various solid color backgrounds, various photographic equipment...

Du Ziqing was shocked by the scene in front of him: "Is this a studio?"

"Well, more than 1000 square meters, the largest studio in Yanjing."

"One, one thousand?" Du Ziqing looked at Hou Jiahao in disbelief.

You know, the studio he used in the studio before was less than ten square meters.

"This used to be an abandoned factory building, and I spent more than a year rebuilding it. The windows have been shaded, but they can also be opened." Hou Jiahao said, walking to the stairs not far away, "I will take you up Look upstairs."

Du Ziqing was still in shock, and followed Hou Jiahao up to the second floor in three steps and one turn.

"There are several live-action rooms with different styles on the second floor, and you can take photos of various themes. In addition, there is a studio and two bedrooms, and the living facilities in the bedrooms are very complete."

Hou Jiahao said as he opened the combination lock of a bedroom and put his luggage in.

"The password is your birthday."

"This is...the bedroom?"

Du Ziqing had some doubts, whether the bedroom he understood and the bedroom Hou Jiahao understood were the same thing.

This "bedroom" is at least [-] square meters, and the living room and kitchen are fully equipped, just like a set of independent commercial housing.

"The top floor is a garden, and someone will come to take care of it on a regular basis. It's a bit late today, and I'll take you up there tomorrow to have a look."

"Wait..." Du Ziqing stopped Hou Jiahao, "You want me to live here?"

"What's the matter?" Hearing Du Ziqing's tone, Hou Jiahao was a little nervous, "You don't like it?"

I like it, but...

"Didn't you say that I rented a house by myself?"

Hou Jiahao walked to the sofa in the living room and sat down, motioning for Du Ziqing to come over: "Listen to me first, okay?"

"..." Faced with this kind of discussion tone, Du Ziqing really couldn't say no to it.

"This studio has been built for more than a year and has been empty."

"why?"

"Because I was waiting for you."

"..." The strings in Du Ziqing's heart seemed to be twitched.

Why is it so hard to sort out your mood?

"You will also need a studio for shooting things in the future, so just treat it as I lent it to you."

"But..." You treat me so well, how can I control my heart?

"It's just for borrowing. Aren't you satisfied with this studio?"

"How is that possible." Du Ziqing frowned and replied, but his mind was elsewhere.

"Use it first if you are satisfied, and talk about the rest later, okay?"

Du Ziqing sighed deeply.

His favorite person, Hou Jiahao, is right in front of him.

His favorite job, photography, is within reach.

How could he refuse?He thought about it, but finally gave up: "...Okay."

Seeing that Du Ziqing finally agreed, the big stone in Hou Jiahao's heart finally fell.He didn't want to appear overly happy, tried his best to restrain the urge to hug Du Ziqing, and said with a smile, "I'll take you to the studio."

Du Ziqing was already broken, he knew that no matter what happened in the future, it was his own choice.

There is a locker in the studio. The moment I saw this locker, the gloomy mood just now was swept away.

Du Ziqing said with some surprise: "This, this is..."

There are professional SLR and mirrorless cameras of Canon, Nikon, Sony and other major brands in the cabinet, as well as matching ternary lenses of various focal lengths. This is like heaven for those who love photography.

Although Du Ziqing didn't know much about the prices of other things, he still knew a lot about cameras.

It's rare to see him so excited, Hou Jiahao hooked his lips a little amusedly: "Small, I'll show you another thing."

Trivial?Du Ziqing nodded in confusion, and followed Hou Jiahao to another bedroom.

This bedroom had a symmetrical layout with the one Du Ziqing lived in, but the furniture was placed differently.There is also a locker in the corner of the bedroom, but this cabinet is metal and has a fingerprint lock on the door.

When Hou Jiahao opened the cabinet, Du Ziqing was shocked again.

The cabinets are full of various limited edition Leica cameras, and any one of them can cost hundreds of thousands, or even millions.

"You..." Du Ziqing said "you" for a long while, and finally he just choked out a sentence:
