Gu Yuwu had brought five different flavors of octopus balls, and there were six of each flavor.

Lin Xiaowan tried one of each flavor. The octopus balls were not small, and it was quite filling. She still wanted to eat but was embarrassed. She asked, “Where did you buy this? It’s really delicious!”

“It’s the stall in the alley next to a middle school on North-South Island Bay Road. It’s been around for almost twenty years. The food there is delicious, and the soup is particularly good,” Gu Yuwu replied. She liked seeing how happy and satisfied Lin Xiaowan looked when she was eating so she pushed another octopus ball to Lin Xiaowan and said, “Eat more if you like it.”

Lin Xiaowan did not stand on ceremony and quickly ate the octopus ball.

The trio continued to talk, and the topic drifted to the heavy snow recently. The snow covered the city for an entire day and night, making the city look beautiful. Scenic spots in the city looked even more beautiful with the snow.

Qiao You’an chimed in, telling the others about how her sons had built a snowman in the yard.

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaowan said indignantly, “I wanted to go out and play with the snow as well, but Huo Zheng wouldn’t let me. I wanted to build a snowman too.”

The last time Lin Xiaowan built a snowman was when she was very, very young. That year, it snowed heavily in Beicheng. At that time, her uncle brought her out and helped her scoop buckets of snow to build a huge snowman.

Gu Yuwu could hear the disappointment dripping from Lin Xiaowan’s words so she asked, “I have photos of when it was snowing. Do you want to see them?”

The photos were turned into a slide of video. It had more than 200,000 views, and it was uploaded to the platform, Bobo Star. The title was very direct: Snow in the Streets of Sheng City.

The 20-minute video was divided into two parts; one showed the street during the day, and the other at night.

Lin Xiaowan was fascinated. She watched it with rapt attention.

The photos were very well taken. One showed a sweet potato stall at night. The stall owner stood behind the cart as it snowed, and he was rubbing his arms. Another one showed two pedestrians, probably a couple, holding an umbrella as they crossed the zebra crossing. There was even one that showed small paw prints on the snow-covered ground as a cat jumped onto the roof of a car.

While Lin Xiaowan looked at the photos, Gu Yuwu seriously spoke about angles and what shutter speed she used when she was taking the photos.

Lin Xiaowan said sincerely, “You’re really awesome. The photos are all very good!”

Seeing that Lin Xiaowan was interested, she said, “You can go back to the main page. I have other street photos as well…”

Worried that Lin Xiaowan was not familiar with the interface, Gu Yuwu leaned over and said, “Click on the small white arrow in the upper left corner.”

Although Lin Xiaowan had never used this platform before, she had often used other video platforms to watch dramas and variety shows. For this reason, it was not difficult for her to navigate her way.

Lin Xiaowan saw the video, Snow in the Streets of Sheng City, at the top of the page since it was recently uploaded. Soon, her attention was caught by the user information on the page. She exclaimed, “Wow! You have more than three million followers!”

Lin Xiaowan scrolled down and discovered that there were only a few street photos. In fact, the number of videos, in general, was not a lot. As she scrolled down, she also saw photos of people. The number of views was quite high, and there were also many comments.

Gu Yuwu scratched her head and said, “I studied photography.

Gu Yuwu studied photography, but after graduation, she somehow was roped into acting in an online drama and entered the entertainment industry. However, she had no interest in acting or being an actress. She was now part of the committee responsible for reforming the entertainment industry. With her background and capital, she was a domineering figure in the entertainment industry.

In the end, photography only became Gu Yuwu’s personal hobby.

In fact, if Lin Xiaowan had gone on Whisper, the largest social media platform in Shangxia, she would have found that Gu Yuwu’s fame far exceeded three million followers. There was another 0 behind the 3,000,000.

Lin Xiaowan did not have much interest in celebrities so she was unaware of these things. Moreover, apart from that online drama and a few cameos, Gu Yuwu did not make an appearance in front of the cameras. As such, it was even more unlikely for Lin Xiaowan to know about a behind-the-scenes bigshot.

“Can I have a look at these videos as well?”

Gu Yuwu replied with a smile, “Of course.”

Lin Xiaowan watched the videos one by one.

Sometimes, Gu Yuwu’s voice could be heard in the videos, but she never appeared in front of the camera. The photos were not taken in a studio, and they were all taken in natural settings. They depicted people living their daily lives.

There were photos of people eating watermelons, drinking soda, playing with cats and dogs, buying fruits, and so on. Although the subject of the photos was ordinary, there was something special in their simplicity. However, it had to be said that the people in the photos were all very good-looking.
