And one more photo... Developing prints isn't a difficult task, but the monotonous work is exhausting. The client is coming tomorrow, so there wasn't much of a choice; everything had to be finished today. With a sigh, Xiaoshi continued hanging the photos, spending a couple of seconds on each to take a look. Just out of pure curiosity—it's interesting to see what people want to capture and keep, probably for a long time.

The guy caught himself thinking that he definitely needs to take a photo together with Lu Guang. Then he could put it in a frame, next to the photo of Qiao Ling. Do they even have any of those? Well, there are plenty of shots of him sleeping. They turned out funny, of course, but that's not exactly what he's looking for. Xiaoshi chuckled softly, remembering his sleeping friend from those photos.

Finally, the work was done. The guy stepped back toward the door to look at the overall result of his labor. Naturally, he was pleased with himself and glad that he could finally rest. A rumble in his stomach inadvertently reminded him of his desire to eat. Some ramen would be great right now. And Lu Guang is probably hungry too... The last time the two of them ate was in the morning; it's high time to repeat.

"Guang-Guang, I'm hungry," Xiaoshi shouted to him, stepping out of the darkroom and closing the door. "Maybe we could go somewhere? Qiao Ling won't be back for a while anyway."
