Although he confessed his feelings and I accepted, it seemed we still lacked a formal confirmation. He paused for a moment upon hearing my words, then chuckled softly and pulled me into his embrace. "What do you think, my girlfriend?" 0
 
The term "girlfriend" coming from him carried a weight of declaration and affection that brought me comfort and made me feel sweetly overwhelmed. I buried my face in his chest and nodded vigorously. "Mm!" 0
 
Under the streetlight, the two of us nestled together became the most beautiful sight of that summer night. Our relationship was thus solidified, transforming from comrades in arms to a legitimate couple. Life on campus suddenly felt filled with pink bubbles. 0
 
We would study together in the library; he focused on his textbooks while I sketched my designs. Occasionally, we would glance at each other and share a smile that dispelled the monotony of studying. He would time my classes perfectly, waiting for me at the entrance of the teaching building with either my favorite milk tea or warm sweet potatoes in hand. 0
 
On weekends, we acted like any ordinary couple, watching movies, strolling through parks, or simply cozying up in a nearby café, busy with our own tasks yet enjoying each other's company. Shen Yizhou was no longer the aloof and taciturn Academic Genius, at least not in front of me. He would clumsily peel shrimp for me, patiently call to wake me up when I was reluctant to get out of bed for early classes, and gently ruffle my hair when I frowned over a difficult problem, saying, "Don't worry, I'm here." 0
 
His sweetness wasn't grandiose but rather subtle and nurturing, evident in every detail that warmed my heart. Under his influence, I became more confident and cheerful, no longer that girl who would shy away and doubt herself when faced with challenges. I knew that no matter what happened, I had a solid support by my side. 0
 
Every time Su Meng saw Shen Yizhou and me together, she would dramatically clutch her heart and exclaim, "Oh my goodness! My titanium alloy eyes! Lin Xi, your Academic Genius Shen is way too sweet when it comes to dating! The sugar levels are off the charts!" 0
 
I would laugh and tease her back while feeling sweet inside. Of course, our romance wasn't without its bumps. The pressure of academics and future plans occasionally brought about small frictions and anxieties. For instance, Shen Yizhou received offers from top universities and tech companies both domestically and internationally due to his exceptional talents while I was still busy with my graduation project and internship. I worried that the distance between us might grow. 0
 
But he always sensed my unease. "Lin Xi," he would say seriously as he looked into my eyes, "there are many uncertainties ahead, but one thing is certain: I want to face them with you. No matter where I go, I'll wait for you. Or would you like to walk this path with me?" 0
 
He didn't paint unrealistic dreams but instead handed the choice to me, offering the utmost respect and security. I understood that this relationship was not merely about youthful romance on campus but a promise of growing together as we walked toward the future. 0
 
The sun outside was just right, and a gentle breeze blew through. I watched Shen Yizhou reading intently beside me; feeling my gaze upon him, he looked up and smiled gently at me. In that moment, my heart felt undeniably certain. This star that had accidentally collided with my life would be the brightest light of my existence. 0
