Host! I told you to do a task! I didn't tell you to bbb.

"Yes! I also think Brother Shiyan would like it!" She nodded affirmatively as she spoke.

His confident yet slightly smug expression instantly transformed Shen Shiyan's initial panic into helpless indulgence.

He watched her push the shopping cart, hopping between the shelves like a happy little squirrel.

Every now and then I would pick up something and turn to him to ask, "Is this good?" Even though many of these were things he didn't eat often, I would still patiently answer each one.

When they arrived at the cashier, Liu Yunshu was about to take out her phone to pay when Shen Shiyan had already taken out his wallet.

"I'll do it." He said casually, as if it were the most ordinary thing in the world.

"No way! It's my gift to you, brother!" Liu Yunshu pressed his hand back and quickly scanned the code. "Besides, I bought it with my own allowance, so you can't take it from me, brother."

Shen Shiyan looked at her upturned face, her serious expression saying "I'm in charge of this," and hesitated for a moment before finally putting her wallet away.

"Okay, I'll do as you say."

As I walked out of the supermarket carrying my shopping bags, the setting sun was slowly sinking, casting a warm orange-red hue over the campus.

Liu Yunshu carried the lighter bag, and naturally took Shen Shiyan's arm with her other hand.

"Brother Shiyan, thank you for today." She turned her head to look at him, and the light of the setting sun fell on the beauty mark at the corner of her eye, like a tiny gold grain.

"With you here, I don't think coming to Tsinghua or Peking University is so scary anymore."

Shen Shiyan paused slightly, reached out and patted the top of her head, his gesture natural yet tender and cautious: "Silly girl, with me here, what is there to be afraid of?"

The setting sun cast long shadows of the two of them, who nestled close together, like a warm, unfolding painting.

"Oh, by the way," Shen Shiyan suddenly spoke up, "there's a welcome party for the Computer Science department tomorrow morning. Shall I go with you?"

Liu Yunshu's eyes lit up and she immediately nodded: "Great! With my brother here, I won't be shy anymore."

She deliberately leaned closer to him, her shoulder gently brushing against his arm. "If anyone bullies me, you have to protect me, brother."

Shen Shiyan chuckled and gently ruffled the top of her head with his fingertips: "If anyone dares to bully you, I'll be the first to object."

As soon as she finished speaking, she felt that her words were too intimate, and a faint blush crept up her ears. She quickly looked away and gazed at the basketball court in the distance.

"Let's hurry up, the dorms will be locked if we stay too long."

Liu Yunshu wouldn't let him go, tugging at his sleeve and shaking it: "Then how about you pick me up tomorrow morning, brother? I'm afraid I'll oversleep."

"Okay." Shen Shiyan agreed almost without hesitation. By the time he realized what was happening, she had already pulled him forward several steps.

He looked down at the spot where their hands were clasped. Her fingers were slender, gripping his sleeve like a soft cloud, making him reluctant to let go.

As they approached the dormitory building, Liu Yunshu suddenly stopped, took a candy wrapped in colorful wrapper from her pocket, and slipped it into Shen Shiyan's hand.

"Here, this is for you. It's strawberry flavored, sweet, just like my mood today."

Shen Shiyan held the small candy in his hand, his fingertips able to feel the creases of the wrapper and the shape of the candy inside. Suddenly, his heart felt filled with something warm and soft.

He watched Liu Yunshu turn and run into the dormitory building, her pale yellow skirt resembling a blooming flower.

Only after the figure disappeared at the top of the stairs did he clench the candy in his hand and turn to walk back to his dormitory.

Back in the dormitory, Lin Weiwei and the other two immediately surrounded her. "Yun Shu, you're finally back!"

Lin Weiwei leaned closer to her and sniffed. "Hmm~ It smells sweet. Did you go on a date with Shen Dashen?"

Liu Yunshu blushed slightly and gently patted her: "Don't talk nonsense, we just went to the supermarket together."

Even so, the smile in her eyes was undeniable, like stars scattered across her face, sparkling brightly.

Zhang Qi leaned closer, pointing at the shopping bag in her hand: "So what's with this bag of snacks? Hmph! I caught you red-handed!"

Liu Yunshu put the shopping bag on the table and opened it mysteriously: "This is an apology gift for you. I was so busy shopping with Brother Shiyan that I didn't come back to keep you company earlier."

Several packets of exquisite cookies and chocolates peeked out from the bag, all flavors she had specially chosen that girls love.

"Wow! Yunshu, you're so kind!"

Lin Weiwei immediately reached for a cookie and stuffed it into her mouth, saying indistinctly, "For the sake of the snack, I won't ask you about your 'supermarket secrets' with Master Shen."

"Oh, right," Su Xiao suddenly remembered something, pushed up her glasses, "I heard that Senior Shen will be giving a speech as a representative of the senior students at the Computer Science Department's welcome party tomorrow."

Liu Yunshu paused, her eyes lighting up: "Really?"

"Of course!" Lin Weiwei interjected, "Shen is the face of the Computer Science department, how could the welcome party be complete without him? But why are you interested in this? Could it be...?"

She deliberately dragged out her words, winking and making faces at Liu Yunshu.

"I'm going to participate tomorrow," Liu Yunshu said frankly. "Brother Shiyan said he'll go with me."

"Wow—" the three of them exclaimed in unison, drawing out the sound, with Lin Weiwei even exaggerating by clutching her chest.

"This is definitely 'special treatment'! When has Shen Da Shen ever cared about anyone this much?"

Liu Yunshu's cheeks flushed, and she said reproachfully, "He just treats me like a younger sister."

"Sister?" Zhang Qi raised an eyebrow. "How come I heard that even the great god Shen has to make an appointment to borrow his own cousin's notes? Your 'sister' treatment must be made of gold and jade."

As they were talking, Liu Yunshu's phone vibrated slightly.

She picked it up and saw a message from Shen Shiyan: "I'll be waiting for you downstairs at your dorm at seven tomorrow morning. Don't oversleep."

A small moon emoji was added at the end.

She tapped her finger on the screen and replied, "Okay, I promise I won't be late!" followed by a cute baby emoji.

After sending the message, I couldn't help but scroll up the chat history and secretly chuckled as I looked at that line of text.

"Tsk tsk, that expression," Lin Weiwei leaned over and glanced at him, "Still saying she's just a younger sister? Yun Shu, confess, do you have feelings for the great god Shen?"

Liu Yunshu readily admitted, "Yes! I came here for Brother Shiyan!"

As soon as she finished speaking, two intoxicating blushes appeared on her face, like the sunset glow dyed by the evening breeze.

She was like a green plum, instantly tinged with an alluring sweetness.

Zhang Qi and the other two were stunned once again, all thinking the same thing: Yun Shu looked so alluring! Shen Shiyan was so lucky!

"Waaaa, Yun Shu, please don't make that face next time, I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself!" Lin Weiwei covered her face and gushed.

Liu Yunshu laughed out loud at her antics and reached out to pinch Lin Weiwei's cheek: "Stop being silly, hurry up and eat your cookies."

Just then, Zhang Qi's phone rang. She picked it up and immediately let out a scream.

"Ahhh! Look at the school posters! Yun Shu has been voted the new school beauty!"

Liu Yunshu was taken aback upon hearing this, and quickly leaned over to look at Zhang Qi's phone.

The most prominent position on the homepage of the forum is a photo of her being taken at the entrance of a supermarket today.

In the setting sun, she was looking up at Shen Shiyan, the beauty mark at the corner of her eye made to look particularly lively by the golden light, and a faint smile on her lips.

The headline was even more direct: "A new campus beauty has been crowned! Computer Science freshman Liu Yunshu is both stunningly beautiful and incredibly sweet!"

The post already has hundreds of replies.

Ahhh! Liu Yunshu is so beautiful!

[This candid shot is absolutely stunning! Sunset + beauty mark under the eye + that deep, thoughtful look in his eyes—who can understand?! It's so sweet it makes your heart flutter!]

No wonder Shen treats her differently; if I were her, I'd pamper her like a princess too!

[A freshman? A computer science major? His looks are practically god-like in the department!]

[Has anyone dug into this girl's background? She seems to have a special relationship with Shen Shen...]

Su Xiao pushed up her glasses and chuckled as she pointed to a comment.

"Some people said, 'The way Shen Shen looks at her is like he's looking at a rare treasure,' and even posted a side profile picture of Shen Shen with his head down. The angle is really perfect."

Liu Yunshu leaned closer. In the photo, Shen Shiyan stood backlit, his jawline slightly taut. When his gaze fell on her, the shadow cast by his eyelashes concealed a tenderness he himself was unaware of.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly looked away, only to be teased by Zhang Qi: "Oh no, oh no, if Shen Shen's female fans see this look, they'll be green with envy."

"Don't talk nonsense," Liu Yunshu said reproachfully, "Brother Shiyan doesn't have any female fans..."

Before he could finish speaking, his phone vibrated again. This time it was a message from Shen Shiyan: "You saw it on Tieba? Don't worry about it, I'll have the administrators suppress it."

Liu Yunshu paused for a moment, then replied, "No need, we were just talking casually."

After thinking for a moment, she added, "But... that photo made you look really good."

Two minutes later, Shen Shiyan replied with an "Mm," followed by a somewhat awkward smiley face emoji.

Lin Weiwei leaned over to take a look, then burst out laughing, slapping the table: "Master Shen can actually send emojis? The sun must have risen in the west!"

Liu Yunshu ignored her, staring at the smiling face again and again, and couldn't help but chuckle to herself, "Shen Shiyan, you're so adorable."

At night, Liu Yunshu lay in bed, unconsciously twirling her black hair as she recalled Shen Shiyan's reaction earlier that day.

A charming smile curled at the corners of her lips, instantly transforming her originally fresh and delicate face into one that was alluring and seductive.

Brother Shiyan, what should I do? You smell so good! Yun Shu can't resist taking a bite... of you.

Thinking of this, Liu Yunshu licked her bright red lips, a hint of longing flashing in her eyes. Brother, please don't keep your little sister waiting too long!
