"Boss, add more fruit for decoration, and prepare 19 candles for me."

"No problem. Are there any special words you want written on the cake?"

Li Heng thought for a while and said, "Write: Happy Birthday to my beloved Song Yu.

Can you fit 9 characters?"

The boss noted the words in a notebook and suggested, "Writing 9 characters with cream on a cake of this size might look a bit crowded. How about one size larger?"

Li Heng readily agreed, "Fine, then one size larger. When can I come to pick it up?"

The boss looked at the clock on the wall, "After 3 PM."

"Done. How much deposit should I pay?" Li Heng asked.

The boss said, "Give me 10 yuan."

Li Heng counted out 10 yuan and handed it over.

Coming out of the cake shop, Li Heng found a flower shop nearby. After walking around inside, he said to the landlady following behind his butt:

"99 roses, 6 bunches of lilies, 6 bunches of carnations, this, this, this, and that... give me two of each."

Asking for 8 kinds of flowers in one breath, Li Heng finally asked, "I'm staying at the Yuelai Hostel 300 meters away. Can you help me deliver them to the room?"

In this era, being able to buy so many flowers already counted as a big spender. The landlady was grinning from ear to ear; how could she not agree? She immediately promised.

Li Heng reminded, "The roses must be packed into a bouquet, don't scatter them. It needs to be high-end and beautiful."

The landlady asked, "Giving them to your lover, right?"

Li Heng said yes.

The landlady asked, "What message should I write on the card? Or should I write something conventional?"

Li Heng said, "Write mine. Write: Happy Birthday to my Song Yu, may the years treat you gently, may the future be promising, and may you live up to your youth."

The landlady recorded the message and specifically asked him to check if the name was wrong.

Li Heng checked it once, and after confirming there were no mistakes, he paid and left the flower shop.

Coming out of the flower shop, he checked the time; it was already 1:20. Peking University should be in class. Li Heng simply wasn't in a hurry to go to school and visited the department store again to buy a box of mooncakes.

He also bought some skincare products.

Song Yu's birthday was on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month, coinciding with the Mid-Autumn Festival. In his previous life, every time he celebrated her birthday, he would buy mooncakes; this had already become a habit carved into his bones.

At 2:30 PM, the flower shop landlady delivered the flowers. Such a large bouquet of red roses stunned the elderly boss couple at the hostel, who exclaimed that young people nowadays were truly romantic.

After 3 PM, Li Heng went to the cake shop on time to pick up the cake, and then it was time to bathe and dress up.

In this life, it was his first time coming to Peking University, so Li Heng tidied himself up very neatly, did his hair, and also washed his face with facial cleanser and applied moisturizer, making his face, which was already rich in collagen, even more lustrous and fair.

After finishing everything, he specifically looked in the mirror.

Looking at the dashing image in the mirror, Li Heng was even secretly a bit jealous. Damn it, having a good foundation is just different. Thanks to the great Comrade Tian Run'e.

After 4 PM, Li Heng appeared at the Peking University Law School and walked into Classroom 203 according to his memory.

At this time, class was in session inside the classroom.

He had entered quietly from the back door. Although his movements were already very, very light, he still attracted the attention of many students.

Even the professor who was lecturing incessantly on the podium paused and looked at him from a distance.

The professor was not only a teacher but also a leader of the Law School. He looked Li Heng up and down and then asked with a serious face:

"Classmate, what is your name?"

This was clearly about to catch classroom discipline.

Hearing the teacher's words, Song Yu, who was sitting in the third row, turned her head to look over following everyone's gaze.

At just one glance, Song Yu was stunned!

Then a faint smile appeared on her face.

Looking at Li Heng, who was a bit embarrassed but calm and composed, she felt an indescribable complexity in her heart at this moment.

Facing everyone's gaze, Li Heng said whatever came to mind, "Teacher, I'm from another department. I just had some time, so I specifically rushed over to listen to your lecture."

Seeing that it was a student from another department who had come for his reputation, the seriousness on the professor's face disappeared, turning into a satisfied expression.

After dealing with the teacher, Li Heng winked at Song Yu.

The smile in Song Yu's eyes deepened a bit. Afterward, she straightened her body and continued to listen to the lecture and take notes seriously.

After the 7th period ended, Li Heng ignored the man-eating gazes of the male students in the class, walked from the back of the classroom to the third row, and politely said to a girl next to Song Yu, "Classmate, can you give up your seat?"

He knew this round-faced girl with a bit of baby fat was called Liu Han, because this girl later became one of Song Yu's closest best friends, often coming over to visit, so he was very familiar with her.

Liu Han was dumbfounded. After coming back to her senses, she asked, "Are you looking for Song Yu?"

Li Heng nodded.

Liu Han glanced at Song Yu, then glanced at Li Heng, and then stood up, adding a bit of gossip, "Heaven! You wouldn't be Song Yu's boyfriend, would you?"

Li Heng asked with a smile, "Has the classmate heard of me?"

Liu Han nodded vigorously, "Yes, during the time school just started, many boys secretly wrote love letters to Song Yu, but she rejected them all. She said she had a partner, so I guess it's you."

Worthy of being his wife, she was just that reliable.

Li Heng said thank you and then sat down next to Song Yu.

The news of Song Yu having a partner, and the news of Song Yu's partner appearing, spread throughout the floor in less than a moment.

Then many boys and girls ran over to watch, curious about what kind of man the beautiful Song Yu would find.

The result!

As for the result, naturally, it wouldn't disappoint everyone. Li Heng's handsome appearance directly made the boys give up and the girls envious.

Song Yu had been used to this scene since she was a child. She glanced at Li Heng, then glanced at Li Heng again, not knowing whether to cry or laugh?

She had grown up so big, and she had never seen anyone with such thick skin. Upon arriving, not only did he not treat himself as a stranger, but he also happily chatted with the girls sitting in front, behind, left, and right.

It was truly a moment where Song Yu couldn't find words to describe him.

Thinking back to when they were in the first year of high school, every time he saw her alone, he would blush and appear very restrained.

In the blink of an eye, three years had passed. He was still that person, yet he was no longer that person; he had long since been reborn.

"Ding-a-ling"

The bell for the 8th period rang.

The professor, who had just gone to the office to fetch a pot of hot water, walked into the classroom and onto the podium. When he was about to lecture, he paused, staring straight at Li Heng.

Good boy!

Just a moment ago he deceived me by saying he was here to listen to the lecture, and in the blink of an eye, he was sitting next to Song Yu. What kind of thoughts are these? Sima Zhao's heart is known to everyone, okay!

The professor was a traditionalist and was relatively strict about academic discipline. He asked immediately, "What is your name?"

Li Heng wasn't timid at all, "Li Heng."

The professor asked again in front of all the students, "Which department are you from?"

Li Heng said, "Fudan University."

Fudan University? Li Heng? As a high-level professor in the Law School, he only felt this name was familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.

After a long time, he remembered.

It seemed that when attending a school work meeting at the start of the semester, he had heard the old principal mention it in his spare time: Sigh, Peking University missed a great writer this year; he ran off to Fudan University.

At that time, the professor thought it was incredible. What kind of bullshit great writer was still a freshman?

But after hearing the principal finish Li Heng's resume, the professor had three question marks and three exclamation marks on his head! He instantly remembered the name Li Heng, which could be said to have left a particularly deep impression.

Of course, the reason the old principal sighed like this was partly because he complained that the admissions office wasn't effective, and partly because he was stimulated by a phone call from President Sun of Fudan University.

After a while, the professor asked Li Heng again, "Are you from Shao City?"

This question confused the boys and girls in the class.

And Li Heng felt something was wrong, but still answered the question affirmatively, "My hometown is Shao City."

Hearing this, the professor tactfully stopped asking. He first looked at Li Heng carefully, then looked at Song Yu, and then pretended he didn't know anything and started the lecture.

In the middle of the lecture, Li Heng took out a pen and wrote on the paper: What is the background of this professor?

Song Yu replied: He is the secretary of our Law School.

So that was it. The Law School secretary could be considered a high-level leader of Peking University. No wonder he asked himself three questions in a row; he must have heard some rumors.

Li Heng wrote: After class, come with me.

Song Yu was quiet for two seconds looking at the note, and replied: Mm.

A 45-minute class, Li Heng seriously accompanied Song Yu to listen for 45 minutes.

As soon as the bell rang, he took Song Yu and left, leaving behind a string of boys and girls in the classroom whose gossip hearts were bursting.

Walking out of the teaching building, Song Yu asked with concern, "Are you hungry?"

Li Heng said, "I was hungry, but I forgot when I saw you."

Song Yu's eyes carried a faint smile, "Full when you see me?"

Alright then, this girl was rarely playful for once.

Li Heng turned his head to look at her and said happily, "Truly full. Now my eyes and heart are all filled with you; where would there be space to eat?"

Song Yu had thin skin and couldn't handle such cheesy words. She walked forward and asked after a long time, "Eat at the cafeteria, or outside the school?"

Li Heng said, "Let's go to the cafeteria. Let me experience what the food at China's top institution of higher learning is like?"

Song Yu led the way in front.

Li Heng walked a few steps faster to catch up and said side by side, "No evening self-study tonight?"

Song Yu knew he had something to say and waited quietly for the rest.

Sure enough, the next second Li Heng opened his mouth and said, "After eating, let's go watch a movie. I've already found the cinema."

Song Yu glanced at him and said reservedly, "Okay."

Li Heng followed up while the iron was hot, "After the movie, I'll take you to a place. We won't come back tonight."

Song Yu paused, looked straight ahead, and was quiet without making a sound. She didn't say she agreed, nor did she say she didn't agree.

At this point, the two suddenly fell into silence until they walked into the cafeteria and she prepared two meals. Only then did the atmosphere ease.

It wasn't that Li Heng stuttered, but it depended on the person.

If facing Xiao Han, a surprise attack and a strong offensive were the most effective.

But Song Yu was different.

If the relationship wasn't at that stage, and you rashly went to hug her, then you definitely wouldn't see this person again in the future.

While eating, Song Yu picked some meat from her lunch box for him and asked quietly, "Did you come by train?"

Li Heng stuffed meat into his mouth and replied, "No, I took a plane this morning."

Song Yu asked, "It must have cost a lot of money, right?"

Li Heng looked at her and said, "Everything is worth it."

Song Yu was quiet for a moment, wanting to say something but stopping.

After the meal, she didn't immediately follow him to the cinema, but took him around the campus, introducing the campus buildings and their history as they walked.

Walking and walking, more than half an hour passed without realizing it. Li Heng knew he had to say something, otherwise, this girl would continue to take him walking endlessly.

Under a deserted tree shade, Li Heng stopped and spoke very solemnly, "I rushed thousands of miles just to keep watch for you at midnight."

Hearing this, Song Yu stared straight into his eyes, motionless, without saying a word.

Two minutes passed, and Li Heng was defeated in the eye contact. She moved at this time, turned around, and walked toward the girls' dormitory building.

On the grass about a hundred meters from the girls' dormitory, she arranged, "Wait for me here. I need a while to come down."

Li Heng said "Mm" and watched her enter the dormitory building.

This wait lasted for half an hour. When she appeared again, she had changed her clothes. She was dressed in plain white, her temperament like an orchid, like a beauty walking out of an ancient painting, graceful and charming, as beautiful as clear ripples.

She was truly beautiful beyond words, causing 100% of the passing boys to turn their heads.

Seeing Li Heng looking at her infatuatedly, Song Yu walked up to him and smiled, "Let's go, let's go to the cinema."

"Alright." Li Heng responded and happily took her away from Peking University.

The cinema wasn't particularly far, but it wasn't close either. The two chatted as they walked, mainly about their respective campus lives. In a daze, their two hearts slowly grew much closer.

Li Heng asked, "Do you have much contact with Xiao Feng usually?"

Song Yu pondered and said, "It's okay. Every weekend we get together, eat together, and our relationship is much closer than in high school."

Li Heng asked, "Are there many people pursuing you?"

Song Yu glanced at him and said with a faint smile, "Someone has already made it obvious enough today.

I'm even wondering, did you come to celebrate my birthday, or to stake out territory?"

Li Heng laughed, "Both, both!"

Occasionally a breeze blew, and the fine hair on her face fluttered slightly. Song Yu used her right hand to tuck the scattered hair behind her ear, looked down at the road, and said, "Thinking of staking out three pieces of territory at the same time, can you handle it?"

Li Heng: "..."

After a long silence, he said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I broke my promise. I didn't come to Peking University."

Song Yu was quiet for a while and said calmly, "I didn't expect you to come today."

Li Heng said, "I participated in your birthday for the three years of high school, and I want to participate for the rest of my life."

Song Yu looked up at the skyline, her beautiful red lips parted slightly, then closed again.

Walking and stopping all the way, they finally arrived at the cinema.

Unfortunately, the "A Chinese Ghost Story" they wanted to watch was full; it had been booked by a unit, so there were no seats.

Li Heng said, "Anyway, there's plenty of time tonight. How about we wait for the next show and watch something else first?"

"Mm."

Song Yu said "Mm," discussed it with him, and finally chose "Happy Ghost."

Before buying the tickets, she asked cautiously, "I heard from Zijin that you're afraid of ghosts. This movie..."

Li Heng interrupted, "It doesn't matter, it's fine. This is a comedy movie. Besides, with you accompanying me, I can go anywhere in the world."

Song Yu smiled beautifully and bought two movie tickets.

Li Heng knew her personality and didn't fight to pay, but bought a few snacks instead.

There weren't many people in the cinema, only about 20, so the two picked seats in the middle section.

"Happy Ghost" starred Maggie Cheung and Raymond Wong. Li Heng had watched it once or twice in his previous life, but because the era was too far back, he didn't have much impression of it.

Watching it again, it was still full of novelty, and he watched it with great interest. It was just that every time a ghost appeared, he would be a bit dazed, and things from his previous life would jump into his mind inadvertently.

Noticing the abnormality, Song Yu on the side said with concern, "Let's not watch the movie, accompany me for a stroll."

Li Heng shook his head, "It's fine."

While saying it was fine, his left hand slowly reached out and grabbed her hand.

Song Yu glanced at his hand, then glanced at his profile as he watched the movie intently. After wandering in her heart for a while, she finally couldn't bear to break the face and followed him.
