The flower-selling girl left, and Xu Xia looked at the basket of dewy, fresh red roses, casually picking one up.
Due to her status, receiving various gifts was a common occurrence, and flowers were as ordinary as could be.
However, receiving a sudden gift from a stranger like this, without the person even coming to chat and simply sending it through a flower-selling girl, was a first.
The photographer watched as she picked up a rose from the basket, his eyes lit up, and he immediately pressed the shutter.
"Xiao Xia, come, use the basket of roses as a prop and shoot a few more times. I think the effect and composition are very good."
"Really?"
Xu Xia immediately cooperated by lifting the flower basket and striking a pose.
"Great. Try setting the basket aside and using just one rose."
Xu Xia did as instructed, first holding the rose in her hand, then, inspired, she bit the rose with her teeth, turned around and lifted her skirt to strike a tango pose.
The photographer pressed the shutter, capturing her spin, and immediately opened the camera to review the photos.
"It’s perfect!"
This photographer was also a well-known teacher in the industry, and such high praise was a first; everyone excitedly gathered around to check.
In the photo, Xu Xia’s red dress flared, her gaze wild and fierce, the rose between her red lips and white teeth, majestic arena walls towering behind her, exuding a powerful aura.
"This shot is truly fantastic. It would make a great album cover!"
"Yeah, utterly queenly, both wild and sexy!"
...
Everyone gave high praise to Xu Xia’s photo.
This time, a selection of these photos will be used as the cover and inserts for Xu Xia’s next album, which will feature a global, diverse style, with many international big-name producers, needing photos with such an imposing aura to hold its ground.
Xu Xia herself was very fond of the photo. She looked at the rose in her hand, "If I ever meet this ’Tall, Rich, and Handsome’ one day, I’ll thank him properly for the roses."
"Aren’t you afraid Master Rui will get jealous?" Xiao Gao teased her with a wink.
Xu Xia gave him a glare, "He doesn’t give them, but won’t let others give them?!"
Of course, she was only joking.
For these kinds of things, Xu Xia wouldn’t truly care.
"Alright, everyone’s tired, let’s take a break and have some water," Lan Zi clapped her hands, then led Xu Xia to the makeup van, handing her a bottle of water, "Tired?"
Xu Xia shook her head, took a sip of water, "Besides the photoshoot, what else is planned for today?"
Lan Zi checked the planner, "There’s a magazine interview tonight, and Tomorrow there’s a five-star hotel opening, inviting you for the ribbon-cutting."
"Five-star hotel?" Xu Xia raised an eyebrow, "Which hotel?"
"The owner seems to be Asian, the work was arranged by L&L," Lan Zi said.
"Okay." Xu Xia nodded, "Tell them to bring a set of clothes up. I’ll change now so we can get things done as soon as possible."
The work schedule in Rome was relatively flexible, and with so many issues cropping up for Luo Xiaoqian, Xu Xia hoped to finish her work soon so she could spare some time to look after Luo Jun or help Leng Zimo with something she could manage.
