Beijing University.

"Let's make friends. I'm Xu Fangran, the top scorer in the science college entrance examination in J Province this year. I scored 709 points. How about you?" In the boys' dormitory that they had just moved into, a boastful and self-acquainted person suddenly appeared, which really gave a headache to the other roommates who were still in the social phobia stage.

He was the one who had asked for leave and reported late. The other beds in the dormitory had already been arranged last week.

"Brothers, please introduce yourself. What are your names?" Xu Fangran had already started to explore the surroundings before he even unpacked his luggage.

The boy sitting in the chair across from him waved at him naturally, "Guo Rui, from H Province."

The boy who was reading on the other side said without even looking up: "Chen Qingshu, Province F."

Xu Fangran's personality was obviously more lively than theirs, and he was unwilling to let the topic fall into a dead end. "Is it that simple? Let's get to know each other better. For example, how many points did you get in the college entrance examination?"

Guo Rui was stumped for a moment, scratched his head and said, "I don't know. I was recommended by the CMO National Silver Medal."

This time it was Xu Fangran's turn to get stuck. He kept smiling and turned to look at Chen Qingshu on the other side, "Brother, what about you?"

"Admitted by the training team." Chen Qingshu said concisely.

Xu Fangran was stunned for a moment, "Oh, so that's it."

He looked at the neatly tidied table across from his bed and asked, "There's no formal class today, right? Where did this guy go so early in the morning?"

"You mean Zhou Sheng?" Guo Rui said, "He should go outside the school. He always gets up early."

"Is he also from our Basic Mathematics Department?"

"yes."

"Isn't he also a student in some competition training camp?"

Chen Qingshu, who had just made the bed, smiled and said, "Zhou Sheng, from the Elite Class."

Xu Fangran still didn't quite understand what the gifted class was, but after hearing it he guessed it was no different from the ones that were recommended for admission.

"He got a gold medal in CMO and made the national team in IMO."

Xu Fangran was speechless.

"If you still want to know, he got full marks for the IMO gold medal." Chen Qingshu didn't let him go -

"Twice."

Another university entrance.

On the second day of freshman registration, the city had not yet entered autumn, and summer was still dragging its scorching tail flame through the city. Freshmen dragging large and small bags to register could be seen everywhere at the school gate. Some sophomores and juniors were selfless, while others had their own little thoughts.

A few sophomore seniors, who were tired from work, were taking shelter in the shade of a tree while commenting on the younger female students who were coming and going.

"This one is probably from the Department of Economics and Management. There are many beautiful women in the Department of Economics and Management."

"So you don't take the School of Language and Communication seriously? Who said last time that the students from the Department of Art were the real beauties?"

"Anyway, it's not our electrical engineering department. This is a Buddhist temple..."

“Hey, hey, hey—” One of the boys suddenly called out to the people who were still chatting, “Look at that, look at that!”

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a girl chatting and laughing with her companions on the roadside. She had a lazy and natural princess braid, a cream bag, and a college-style POLO collar top with a pleated skirt. She didn't have any complicated accessories, but the sweet smile between her eyebrows and a pair of shallow dimples gave her the feeling of a young first love. Her every move was full of youth.

A senior student slowly raised his thumbs and said, "Okay, that's my type. This year's goal is set."

"Draw your swords, one of us has to cry!"

While they were fighting over there, someone interrupted them calmly: "I met this person yesterday, Lin Sitian, who majored in e-commerce."

"You can, I've already found out the name."

"Not only that," the person who was speaking took a sip of mineral water and continued, "I even met her boyfriend. Her boyfriend accompanied her to register yesterday... Ah, I won't say more. The cute school girls need me." After saying that, he turned around and walked into the group of freshmen.

"Hey, why don't you finish what you are saying? Did you make a mistake? Is he really your boyfriend?"

"Don't have any illusions, here." Someone raised his chin and pointed to the side of the road.

A Porsche 911 slowly stopped beside the girl.

The man holding the steering wheel with one hand was dressed in a suit and leaning lazily on the car window.

She even noticed the way these boys were looking at Lin Sitian, and glanced at them playfully.

The man rolled down the car window and snapped his fingers at the girl, reminding her to get in the car.

The girl smiled at the man in the car, said goodbye to her companion the next second, lifted her jade-like legs under her short skirt, and got into the car.

The yellow Porsche left a trail of brilliant visual aftermath in the sun and sped away.

"That's not a college student, right?"

"Sure enough, girls of this age look down on poor college students like us..."

"That's not necessarily true. We can't be ranked among the 211 universities, but we can still compete with Tsinghua and Peking University."

"By the way, was that look in his eyes just now a warning to me?"

…

…

Next to the glass window of McDonald's, he looked at the screen of the notebook in front of him and pondered for a long time, then picked up the pen and fluently wrote down a series of steps on the draft paper in front of him.

On his nose are black half-frame glasses, the latest popular style this year. Their cold and abstinence style does not reduce their wisdom. Coupled with his gentle and handsome face, he often attracts the attention of others.

"Go ask for WeChat, go ahead." Someone not far away nudged her companion who was eager to try. At her instigation, the companion really came forward with his mobile phone.

"Excuse me, is there anyone sitting here?" the girl asked.

The person being approached was still immersed in brainstorming and had no idea that someone was talking to him.

The girl was embarrassed for a second and tried to ask again.

The boy finally came to his senses and paused slightly.

"Um, excuse me," the girl smiled shyly, "I'm with my friend, and yours is the only seat for two people. Is it convenient for me to sit next to you?"

He nodded, "It's okay, sit down."

The girl tried hard to hide her joy and secretly winked at her best friend.

Just when she thought there was room to move forward, the boy stood up with his computer and tray to make room for her.

"I'll just sit over there." He smiled politely, nodded, and turned to a more secluded corner.

Leaving behind the two girls looking at each other in bewilderment, he plunged back into the realm that seemed isolated from the world.

On the other side, the Porsche stopped by the roadside again. Two people were talking and laughing in the car. The girl joked about something, and the man driving the car raised his mouth speechlessly and turned his head to ask her to get out of the car quickly.

Lin Sitian snorted softly, jumped onto the curb with cheerful steps, then turned and entered a shop on the side of the road.

People came and went, and the September sun cast a circle of warm yellow on the edge of the table. Sitting by the window, he looked at the time, paused writing, and became a little absent-minded for a moment.

"Um... handsome guy, can I sit at the same table with you?"

He turned his head and saw the girl's smiling face very close to him, so close that if she kissed him on the face right now, he probably wouldn't be able to react to what was happening.

But he didn't dodge, he just smiled lightly.

"If you want to sit at the same table with me, you can never change it in your life."

"What a loss," she complained pitifully, then threw herself into his arms, "What kind of seats are there and what kind of unfair terms."

"Then change someone?" He kissed her forehead.

"You dare?"

"I meant you."

"Are you willing to do that?"

He pursed his lips coyly and shook his head at her.

“I can’t bear to do that.”

Lin Sitian curled up the corners of her mouth in satisfaction.

His fingers moved her bangs that covered her eyes, and he asked, "Is the second brother gone?"

"Let's go. I tell you, it's hilarious - he's wearing a suit today, formal clothes, can you believe it? A man like my second brother is dressed like a beast in human clothing, uh, well-dressed to attend a meeting with others, and then drove a flashy yellow sports car. The sense of incongruity is just like a gigolo entering a temple..."

Zhou Sheng couldn't help but smile just listening to it, "I think you must have told him this."

"Yeah, and then he told me to get lost, wuwuwu..."

"Don't cry, don't cry." Zhou Sheng patted her back to comfort her, "He should go away. The farther the better."

Lin Sitian raised her head from his arms: "No, I'll have to ride in his car again in the future."

"I'm going to take the driving test during the Chinese New Year." Zhou Sheng curled his lips.

"It's nothing. In fact, it only takes 40 minutes to get from my school to your place by bus... but it's still better to drive for only 20 minutes." Lin Sitian muttered, "If college students were not prohibited from renting houses outside the campus..."

Zhou Sheng tapped her forehead lightly, "What are you thinking about?"

Lin Sitian's eyes widened, "...What are you thinking? Is that what I meant? Even if the two of us rent a house outside the school, we will definitely study hard and make progress every day!"

Zhou Sheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Few of the things you said are reliable."

"Who is unreliable? Tell me who it is? Who calls me every few days even though we broke up?"

He paused in embarrassment, raised his hand and coughed twice, and retorted: "Who breaks up and still sends me messages every few days?"

"I was asking questions I couldn't answer!"

"Then...then you can send me gifts during the holidays."

"Why don't you tell me that you flew from Beijing to my house to celebrate my birthday!" No, Lin Sitian must decide who is better on this issue.

"Doesn't it count when you took the high-speed train to watch my CMO competition?"

"Ahhh, you still said that, Zhou Sheng, you didn't even let me...it was obviously you who couldn't help it first."

"……Um."

He suddenly admitted it without any struggle.

Lin Sitian's heartbeat gradually became uncontrollable as she listened to the tingling "hmm".

"I couldn't help it first."

"I lost."

It's me who loves you more.

I admit that I am inferior.

Graduation is not the end of our story.

——It’s just the beginning.

"Teacher, then I..."

"Can I have a reward?"

We go around in circles, but eventually we will see the light at the end of the tunnel.
