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

Soon the day of the social party arrived. Liu Yunshu stood in front of the mirror in her dormitory, spending a long time choosing dresses from the wardrobe.

In the end, I chose a light purple off-the-shoulder fitted dress. The light purple skirt was embroidered with tiny silver flowers, which looked like stars falling on the hem when I walked.

She turned around in front of the mirror, then loosely tied her long hair into a half-bun, revealing her slender neck and the star necklace between her collarbones.

The sapphire shimmered under the light, perfectly complementing the silver thread of the dress.

"Wow! This is so ethereal!" Zhang Qi leaned closer and pinched the hem of her skirt. "Even the top student Shen would be unable to take his eyes off her!"

Lin Weiwei handed over a mauve lipstick: "Wear this, it will brighten your complexion without being too flashy, and it goes perfectly with your dress."

Liu Yunshu took the lipstick and carefully applied it in front of the mirror, her lips tinged with a gentle mauve color, which made her skin appear even whiter, and the smile in her eyes became even sweeter.

She winked at herself in the mirror, then turned and asked, "How is it? Is it too formal?"

"What's so fancy about that!" Su Xiao waved her hand. "You're supposed to dress up for a social gathering, and besides, you're going with the academic genius Shen, so you have to look your best!"

Just then, my phone rang. It was a message from Shen Shiyan: [I'm downstairs at the dorm.]

Liu Yunshu smiled slightly and said to Zhang Qi and the others, "I'm going downstairs!"

As she spoke, she grabbed her small bag and ran briskly toward the door.

She turned back at the door, quickly tidying up the stray hairs in her half-bun in front of the mirror. "See you at the party later!"

As soon as I ran out of the dormitory building, I saw Shen Shiyan standing under the street lamp.

He wore a light gray suit jacket over a white shirt, with two buttons undone at the collar, giving him a more relaxed and gentle look than his usual aloofness.

Upon seeing her come out, Shen Shiyan's eyes lit up instantly. He quickly stepped forward, reached out and took her hand: "Our Yun Shu looks so beautiful today."

Liu Yunshu's cheeks flushed under his gaze, and she gently squeezed his palm with her fingertips: "Brother, you look super handsome today too!"

Shen Shiyan lowered his head, his fingertips gently touching the silver flower on the hem of her skirt, his eyes filled with a tender smile: "This skirt matches the necklace perfectly, it's like wearing stars on your body."

He put his arm around her waist, and the two walked side by side toward the party venue.

A gentle evening breeze stirred, causing Liu Yunshu's skirt to flutter lightly, brushing against Chen Shiyan's trousers and carrying a faint scent of gardenias.

The party was held in the school's auditorium, with colorful balloons hanging at the entrance, and lively music could be heard coming from inside from afar.

As soon as I reached the door, the student in charge of registration had a bright look in his eyes and handed me two fluorescent wristbands with a smile.

"Senior Shen and Student Liu are here together! Hurry inside, they're all waiting for you!"

Liu Yunshu took the bracelet and was led inside by Shen Shiyan. She became the focus of attention as soon as she entered the room.

The previously noisy music seemed to have quieted down, and many people's eyes turned to look at it.

Some were envious, some were making a fuss, and a few familiar classmates waved and called out their names.

"Look at these two, they're practically living spotlights!" Zhang Qi squeezed through the crowd, pulling Lin Weiwei and Su Xiao to stand next to Liu Yunshu. "Our dorm's beauty duo is complete!"

Shen Shiyan was pulled aside by Gao Yang and a few other boys, while Liu Yunshu was surrounded by girls asking about the details of her dress and the origin of her necklace.

As she was explaining with a smile, she suddenly heard the host pick up the microphone: "Next, let's play a game—a love song duet! Are there any couples willing to come up and try? The winner gets a couple's bracelet as a prize!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Gao Yang took the lead in chanting, "Shen Shiyan! Liu Yunshu!"

The people around them clapped and shouted louder and louder.

Liu Yunshu's cheeks flushed, and she subconsciously looked at Shen Shiyan.

He had broken free from the boys' grasp, walked to her side, and reached out to take her hand: "Do you dare to go up?"

"What's there to be afraid of!" Liu Yunshu looked up at him, a sly glint in her eyes.

Shen Shiyan chuckled softly and led her onto the stage.

The host handed over the microphone, jokingly asking, "Looks like our academic genius Shen and student Liu are quite confident! What song would you like to sing?"

Liu Yunshu looked at Shen Shiyan, their eyes met, and they said in unison, "A Little Happiness".

As the prelude began, Shen Shiyan's gaze remained fixed on her.

His voice was clear and gentle, like an evening breeze caressing the surface of a lake, "I hear raindrops falling on the green grass, I hear the distant school bell ringing..."

Holding the microphone, Liu Yunshu softly sang along: "It turns out you are the luck I most wanted to hold onto, it turns out we were once so close to love..."

When the chorus came, Shen Shiyan quietly released her hand and gently put his arm around her waist, his fingertips softly caressing her waist.

The cheers from the audience gradually subsided, leaving only the melody and the two singers' voices echoing in the auditorium.

When Liu Yunshu sang "That decision to fight against the world for me," Shen Shiyan suddenly lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "My decision has always been you."

The warm breath brushed against her earlobe, and Liu Yunshu's heart skipped a beat, but her singing became even softer.

As they finished their last sentence, the two exchanged a smile, and the applause and whistles from the audience erupted instantly.

The host presented the couple's bracelets, which were thin silver chains with half a star hanging on each.

When pieced together, it perfectly resembles the necklace worn by Liu Yunshu. "This prize is practically tailor-made for you!"

Shen Shiyan took the bracelet, bent down and put it on Liu Yunshu, gently squeezing her wrist with his fingertips: "It matches the necklace perfectly."

As she was leaving the stage, Zhang Qi rushed over and poked her arm: "You two were exchanging glances halfway through the song, it gave me goosebumps!"

Liu Yunshu blushed and hid behind Shen Shiyan. He reached out and pulled her into his arms, smiling as he said to Zhang Qi, "If you're envious, just find a boyfriend."

Just as they were making a ruckus, the party music started playing.

Shen Shiyan took Liu Yunshu's hand and led her to the center of the dance floor: "Want to dance with me?"

His palms were warm, carrying a familiar sense of security.

Liu Yunshu followed his steps and turned gently. The silver threads and small flowers on her skirt shimmered under the lights, like stars falling onto the dance floor.

Shen Shiyan looked down at her, his eyes filled with an overwhelming tenderness. "You sang beautifully on stage just now."

"That's because you sing well, brother." Liu Yunshu looked up at him, her nose brushing against his shirt. "Let's sing together again next time."

"Okay." Shen Shiyan tightened his arms, pulling her closer. "From now on, I'll sing all the songs with you."

As the music flowed gently, Liu Yunshu swayed her body lightly to the rhythm of Shen Shiyan's music, the faint scent of cedar lingering around her nose.

Zhang Qi, standing by the dance floor, was secretly taking pictures with her phone, muttering to Lin Weiwei, "Look at those two, even their dancing is like something out of a movie, their eyes are so sweet they're melting my teeth!"

Lin Weiwei nodded with a smile, while Su Xiao hummed "A Little Happiness" softly beside her. All three of them had smiles in their eyes that they couldn't hide.

When the song ended, Shen Shiyan led her to a corner to rest.

As soon as he sat down, Gao Yang brought over two glasses of juice and winked at Chen Shiyan.

"Wow, Lao Chen, that part about 'My decision has always been you' in your singing was pretty cheesy!"

Shen Shiyan took the juice and handed it to Liu Yunshu, raising an eyebrow at Gao Yang: "Envious?"

Gao Yang immediately waved his hand: "Forget it, I'm not that lucky."

He turned to Liu Yunshu and said, "Liu, you'd better keep a close eye on Lao Chen. Several young women in our company are asking about him!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Yunshu subconsciously moved closer to Shen Shiyan, grabbed the hem of his clothes, and looked up at Gao Yang with a smile: "Don't worry, he's mine."

Shen Shiyan was amused by her possessive little expression, reached out and ruffled her hair, and said to Gao Yang, "Don't scare her, everyone in the company is a colleague."

After Gao Yang walked away with a smile, Liu Yunshu took a sip of juice, then suddenly remembered something and leaned close to Shen Shiyan's ear.

"Brother, when will your company's game be released? I want to be the first to play it."

"It'll be soon, we should be able to start internal testing around the end of the month." Shen Shiyan gently touched the star bracelet on her wrist with his fingertips.

"I'll give you a special account then, and I'll make a star-themed skin for your character to match your necklace."

Liu Yunshu's eyes lit up: "Really? That's great!"

As they were talking, the host picked up the microphone again: "Next up is the last game—blindfolded partner search! Couples, please come up and try it. The winner gets movie tickets for two!"

Zhang Qi immediately ran over and shoved Liu Yunshu, "Hurry up! The movie tickets are just the right amount for a date!"

Shen Shiyan led her onto the stage, and staff put a blindfold on Liu Yunshu.

Everything was pitch black, and she was a little nervous, her fingertips gripping Shen Shiyan's hand tightly.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Shen Shiyan's voice rang in her ears, carrying a comforting power.

The game begins, and the other couples' positions are shuffled. Liu Yunshu walks forward based on her memory, her fingertips groping in the air.

Suddenly, she touched a familiar hand, warm in the palm and with slight calluses on the fingertips. It was Shen Shiyan's hand.

She immediately took off her blindfold and threw herself into his arms: "I found you!"

The audience erupted in applause, and the host smiled as he handed over the movie tickets: "Congratulations to Chen and Liu! Their teamwork is unparalleled!"

By the time the party ended, it was already late at night.

Shen Shiyan led Liu Yunshu towards the dormitory, the streetlights casting long shadows of the two of them.

"Do you want to go to the movies tomorrow?" Shen Shiyan suddenly asked.

Liu Yunshu nodded: "I want to!"

"I'll pick you up tomorrow afternoon." He lowered his head and kissed her forehead. "Go upstairs and get some rest."

Liu Yunshu nodded, but instead of going upstairs immediately, she tiptoed and kissed him on the lips.

Goodnight, brother. See you tomorrow.
