Chapter 57 -56: Representative Actions, Humph!_2
“Auntie, you’re too kind. Oh, right, your cat is called Ah Fu, isn’t it? That’s a good name, a real fortune-bringing cat.”
“Ah…”
“Aunt Liu, I need to go now. If I’m late, there will be less to choose from.”
“Oh, okay, okay, good.” Can a cat really bring fortune?
Pushing her cart, Aunt Liu thought about how not long after that cat arrived at her house, sure enough, her husband got promoted.
Lu Jingqiu didn’t know if this method would be effective, but after arriving at the office around ten o’clock, they indeed received a phone call from the military requesting assistance.
Because the courtyard’s wall was much larger than that of the government’s, three people from their department were transferred over, including one from the movie theater.
The three from their Editorial Department went to the military base after lunch.
They met with the head of the Propaganda Department, ah, her uncle by marriage.
“Uncle.”
“Qiuqiu, you’re here.”
“Yes, these two are my colleagues, Comrade Yang Bo and Comrade Luo Xinyue.”
“Perfect. I’ll take you to meet the other two people.”
The uncle took them to an office where two male comrades were sitting; one they had met before, who specialized in writing propaganda slogans, and the other from the theater, skilled at painting large posters.
The five of them needed to cooperate, and the people from the military’s Propaganda Department would also give their full support. The slogans were ready, but some propaganda paintings were not yet prepared.
The Propaganda Department wanted to depict soldiers in a positive light.
After discussing for an hour, since there were only two young female comrades among the five, they were assigned to take some photos of soldiers in the compound, then paint from those photos.
There was a camera in the army, and when her uncle handed it to her, Luo Xinyue snatched it away, humming triumphantly as she left.
Her uncle frowned at Luo Xinyue, but Lu Jingqiu, who was used to it, said, “Uncle, she’s always like this. Her parents are from government agencies, she’s spoiled. Don’t mind her.”
Uncle asked, “Does she give you a hard time at work?”
Lu Jingqiu shook her head, “Not really, she’s no match for me.”
Seeing his niece so confident, the uncle was reassured.
“Uncle, I have a camera, could you give me a film roll?”
“Sure.” Yang Pinggui said, swiftly pulling out a new roll of film from the drawer for her.
Lu Jingqiu quickly got her own camera from home.
By the time she reached the training field, Luo Xinyue was already taking photos of the soldiers.
Lu Jingqiu glanced over and, not wanting to crowd her, thought about how to layout the posters on the outside wall and what form to express.
Suddenly, she heard a uniform greeting, “Hello, junior sister.”
“Ah, hello.” She turned around and saw some of her father’s soldiers, greeted them quickly, then took a group photo of them.
It made the soldiers very excited.
Afterward, she said to a company commander standing to the side, “Comrade, can I take a few photos of some good-looking soldiers from your company?”
“Sure, junior sister. Would you like to pick them yourself, or should I choose for you?”
“No need, just this front row, I’ll take a shot.”
“Okay”
Lu Jingqiu found a suitable angle and took a shot, then picked out five or six soldiers of similar height and pulled them to an open space.
She took several shots from different angles and then, not minding getting dirty, lay on the ground for a low-angle photo.
“What are you doing?”
“Hello, battalion commander.”
Before she could get up, she turned her head and saw Jiang Nanzhou in full uniform. Lu Jingqiu thought the angle was good and pressed the shutter, taking a low-angle photo of him.
“Comrade Nanzhou.”
“Comrade Jingqiu?”
Lu Jingqiu stood up and dusted off her clothes, “Our publishing house was seconded over to create some publicity paintings, so we came to gather some materials.”
“I see, if there’s anything they need to assist with, just say the word.”
“No need, we’ve got almost everything.”
Lu Jingqiu flipped through the photos she had taken and said.
Jiang Nanzhou nodded and let them return to their group.
Lu Jingqiu always thought Jiang Nanzhou had the best image. Seeing no one around, she stepped back and snapped a profile shot of him.
By the time Jiang Nanzhou realized what was happening, Lu Jingqiu had already captured a satisfying photo.
“Comrade Jingqiu.”
“Ha ha, that, didn’t anyone tell you, Comrade Nanzhou, that you have a great image?”
Jiang Nanzhou furrowed his brows, remaining silent.
“Don’t worry, I won’t really draw you in it. It’ll all be retouched, and no one will recognize it’s you.”
“Hey, Lu Jingqiu, are you done?” Luo Xinyue came over looking displeased while Lu Jingqiu was talking to Jiang Nanzhou.
Seeing that Luo Xinyue was busy, Jiang Nanzhou didn’t further disturb her and turned to leave.
Lu Jingqiu said to Luo Xinyue, “It’s done.”
“Hey, we’re working here, not here for you to pick up a date.”

Lu Jingqiu, who was fiddling with her camera, paused and turned her gaze to Luo Xinyue for a moment before saying, “I guess Comrade Xinyue doesn’t have many friends, huh.”
“What do you mean… I do, what do you want to do about it?”
“Those you do have are probably just there for the background, to take advantage of you, right?”
“None of your business.”
“I know why you don’t have friends.”
“… Why?”
“Because every word you say annoys people.”
“You, Lu Jingqiu, don’t think just because your dad is a military leader that you can bully people.”
Lu Jingqiu shrugged, “I’m not bullying you, I’m just stating facts.”
“You… Humph.” Luo Xinyue stomped off with her characteristic expression, clearly angry.
Lu Jingqiu watched her and suddenly burst into laughter.
Luo Xinyue turned and said, “Hey, don’t push it too far, be careful or I’ll make sure you can’t stay at the publishing house.”
“Luo Xinyue, I thought you were so tough, turns out you’re just a pushover.”
“What do you mean?”
“Fighting spirit, you always act tough and superior, but when you open your mouth, all we get is a ‘humph.'”
“Hey…”
“I’m not called ‘hey,’ I have a name and a surname.”
Lu Jingqiu said, directly walking past her and leading the way.
Luo Xinyue, in a fit of temper, took large strides to overtake her.
Lu Jingqiu, refusing to show weakness, overtook her again.
Jiang Nanzhou, on his return to the group, turned and saw the two women chasing each other and had no idea what they were doing.
