In the photo, dark gray dress pants wrapped around the man's powerful muscle lines. The trouser legs were perfectly straight, and the red soles of his leather shoes were just slightly visible, making him look extremely explosive and powerful.
Although only half of his body was shown, this half alone gave off a strong "beast in a suit" vibe, as if in the next second he would reprimand someone, "Why are you so disobedient?"
Shu Yu had originally been waiting for Si Yiheng's photo for so long that she was getting drowsy.
Upon receiving the photo, Shu Yu's sleepiness vanished instantly.
Resting her chin on her hands, Shu Yu leaned in for a closer look, then pulled the phone further away, her pretty and delicate brows furrowing slightly.
Shu Yu finally concluded, "Iron Egg, Si Yiheng is not honest at all. He Photoshopped this."
Iron Egg was also shocked. [How could that be? The male lead doesn't seem like the type to fake things.]
Shu Yu rested her head on the pillow. "It's just not right. The proportions are completely off."
Si Yiheng's legs looked very long. Just from his legs, Shu Yu could roughly estimate that his height was close to 1.9 meters.
Shu Yu also knew a thing or two about statistics. For example, the 22 centimeters often mentioned in novels practically didn't exist in the real world.
Si Yiheng definitely faked this.
LittleFishSwimming: Brother, you don't need to feel insecure.
LittleFishSwimming: There's no need to Photoshop your pictures.
Si Yiheng fell silent for a long time. He hadn't Photoshopped the picture; he didn't even have a photo-editing app on his phone. He couldn't quite understand why the little girl would say he edited it.
ATM: I didn't.
LittleFishSwimming: Then did you find a picture online?
ATM: ...
ATM: No.
ATM: It's straight from the original camera.
LittleFishSwimming: Alright, I believe you, brother. Kitten bowing in apology.jpg
For some reason, Si Yiheng felt that Shu Yu didn't actually believe him.
ATM: Go to sleep early.
Tossing her phone aside, Shu Yu had already fallen asleep. She was a good sleeper. As long as she didn't have to go out and interact with outsiders, she rarely felt any pressure and would sleep soundly most of the time.
However, if there was something she had to go out and do herself the next day, she would suffer from insomnia and be unable to sleep.
Si Yiheng waited for a long time but never received a reply from Shu Yu.
Si Yiheng changed his clothes and lay down, but Shu Yu's sweet voice and the photos she had sent him kept floating into his mind.

Shu Yu didn't have many classes, and today was another day with no classes.
She slept until she woke up naturally.
Shu Yu absolutely loved these days of waking up naturally without an alarm.
Thinking about how every day would be like this after completing her mission, she couldn't wait to get to work.
"Iron Egg, Iron Egg, how much money have we milked from Si Yiheng so far?"
Iron Egg: [Iron Egg is now broadcasting for the host. The host has currently obtained 7,110,002 yuan. You are only 92,889,998 yuan away from completing the mission!]
Shu Yu, who had been very happy upon waking up, instantly wilted. Before, she had only been looking at how much she had scammed out of Si Yiheng.
Over seven million was already a lot.
But with Iron Egg's calculation today, she still had to scam over ninety million to finish the mission.
Shu Yu felt that swindling Si Yiheng's money was a long and arduous journey.
Shu Yu hung her head in dismay. "Can't Si Yiheng just give me a hundred million directly?"
"He's so rich, what's wrong with sharing a little with me?"
Iron Egg supported Shu Yu mindlessly. [Exactly! Si Yiheng is so rich, what's wrong with him just giving you a hundred million?]
After washing up, Shu Yu ordered takeout and continued drawing her commissions while sipping on a bag of milk.
For the past few days, Shu Yu had spent almost all her time drawing.
When Iron Egg reminded her to do her mission, she would work on it a bit and milk some money from Si Yiheng.
Over the past few days, she had squeezed another four hundred thousand from him.
However, Shu Yu hadn't sent him any more photos.
Shu Yu finally finished her last sample illustration and uploaded everything to the commission platform, waiting for approval.
Having done all this, Shu Yu leaned back on the sofa and closed her eyes. She looked as if she had completely burned herself out, lying there extremely peacefully.
Iron Egg: [Baby, you haven't milked Si Yiheng today yet.]
Shu Yu kept her eyes closed. "Egg, I don't want to milk Si Yiheng today."
Iron Egg tempted her. [Si Yiheng's experiment went super incredibly smoothly today. If you ask for money right now, he should be very happy to give it to you.]
Shu Yu slowly crawled up from the sofa and fished out her phone.
LittleFishSwimming: Brother (★ω★)
ATM: Mm.
Iron Egg sent Shu Yu all the photos it had collected. They were various pictures of cute little dresses.
Iron Egg: [Baby, quickly send these photos to Si Yiheng. Tell him summer is here and you want to buy pretty dresses to wear for him.]
Shu Yu quickly hit send. She was already very skilled at this business; Iron Egg would come up with the excuse to ask for money, and all she had to do was type it out.
LittleFishSwimming: Are these dresses pretty?
ATM: Mm.
LittleFishSwimming: Can you buy them for me, brother? I want to wear them for you.
ATM: Mm.
This time, Shu Yu waited for a long time, but didn't receive any money transfer from Si Yiheng.
Shu Yu was puzzled. "Why isn't the ATM spitting out money anymore! (ⓛωⓛ*)"
She waited a little longer and started tapping her phone anxiously. "Is my ATM broken?"
On the other end, Si Yiheng received Shu Yu's message. He had originally wanted to send her the money directly, but then he thought he ought to go see her. However, ever since Shu Yu moved out of her dorm, she hadn't taken the initiative to give him her address.
ATM: Address.
LittleFishSwimming: Hmm?
ATM: Didn't you want dresses? Send me your address, I'll mail them to where you live.
Iron Egg almost screamed. [No way, Yu-baby! You can't meet Si Yiheng right now. If you meet him now, he will definitely break up with you.]
This was the only bad thing about being bound to Shu Yu. Her appearance was worlds apart from the original host's initial appearance, and it completely failed to meet Si Yiheng's standards for a partner.
It was highly likely that meeting face-to-face would cause the plot to collapse.
Shu Yu took a deep breath. She didn't want to meet Si Yiheng either.
Iron Egg: [Quickly, stall him.]
LittleFishSwimming: You don't need to mail them to me. Since I'm going to wear them for you anyway, I'll just wear them for you when I go to your house.
ATM: Mm.
Just when Shu Yu thought she had dodged a bullet, Si Yiheng sent another message.
ATM: Can we meet up?
