275: Fashion Black Hole (2) 

Fashion Black Hole (2) 

However, he had already thought of a way to shirk the responsibility so Steve wasn't flustered at all. 0

The shoot continued. 

This time, Xiang Qi was watching from the side so Steve didn't dare to criticize Xiang Yi, but he chose to adopt another approach—the silent treatment. 

He remained expressionless, and all he did was press the shutter button without giving Xiang Yi any cues or prompts at all. The tension got increasingly overwhelming and unbearable. 

During the second break, the staff and crew were incredibly fatigued. 

If the shoot were productive, they wouldn't mind being exhausted; but after all the energy that they had put into the shoot, the final product was still unsatisfactory. Hence, they found it completely meaningless! 

Someone couldn't help but start ranting on their social media page. 

Coincidentally, some netizens from China happened to see that post and decided to share it onto their local social media platforms. 

——[Eternal Gossiper]: "I chanced upon the private account of a staff member of MYSTYLE Magazine. They should be criticizing a certain female celebrity, Miss Xiang... It's attached below: 

[She's really bad at posing and after a long day of shooting, the final product was still unsatisfactory. The photographer wanted to snap some shots with deer in the picture, but when we went to the forest, there wasn't a single deer at all. I think she's a cursed girl!]

Um... To be fair, Miss Xiang is not only unlucky, she might be a fashion black hole. "

As soon as that post was uploaded, some people immediately retorted. 

——[Xiang Yi is a fashion blackhole? Oh, please, her red-carpet look was gorgeous during the previous Tomato Entertainment Annual Gala!]

——[People slam her and call her Vase Fairy all the time, but that actually means that she's really beautiful.]

There were also some who gloated. 

——[Beauty does not equate to elegance. Some tacky hillbillies will never be as elegant as graceful ladies of wealthy families regardless of how hard they try to emulate them.]

——[MYSTYLE Magzine is a renowned international fashion magazine and the photos have to be high fashion, okay? Not anyone can have such vibes.]

As more and more people saw the post, it gradually rose to popularity, and when the Shisui Sisters saw it, they inevitably criticized it again. 

Now that they had finally found something that they could criticize Xiang Yi for, they, of course, couldn't miss it. 

...

In the castle. 

Albert invited a guest to dinner and it was Miss Sophia, the editor-in-chief of MYSTYLE Magazine. 

He had been courting Sophia lately and after the two exchanged pleasantries, he tried to invite Sophia on a hunting trip with him. 

"Although we rarely see deer these days, we can still hunt grouse, rabbits or other animals. If you're interested, we can go on horseback."

Sophia politely turned him down with a smile and took off her plain, wide-brimmed bowler hat before asking the creative director about the progress of the shoot. 

"These are Sui's solo shots," the creative director said as he showed Sophia the photos on the computer. The photos hadn't been retouched, but they were already stunning enough. 

Sophia nodded with satisfaction and had a feeling that this issue would definitely sell very well. 

"Where are Alice's photos?" She was close friends with Xiang Qi, also known as Hades. This time, she was doing Hades a favor by choosing to feature both Xiang Yi and Shi Sui in the cover shoot of the magazine because she knew that Xiang Yi was Xiang Qi's younger sister. 

"Uh, the photos...haven't been sent yet..." 

Actually, some of them had already been sent to the computer, but none of them was satisfactory. The creative director was disappointed, but he secretly wanted to buy a little time for Xiang Yi. He thought that Xiang Yi would probably be able to get into the mood soon. 

He was worried that Sophia might replace Xiang Yi with someone else after seeing those unsatisfactory photos. As the boss, Sophia was gentle in private but domineering and strict when it comes to work. She was famously known as the esteemed "No-nonsense Queen".

At this point, the photographer Steve returned and grinned gleefully when he thought of the remaining amount of the bribe that he was about to receive very soon. 

However, when he saw Sophia, his expression instantly froze.

'What is the boss...doing here!?'
