By the time I finished speaking, the three of them were already in tears.

The eldest brother held my hand: "Nian Nian, you must come home with me this year for New Year."

The second brother said, "Nian Nian, my house is very big. Come with me, I also have two older brothers to introduce to you, you can choose at will."

The fourth brother raised his hand weakly: "My house has a delicious litchi tree, so sweet."

I couldn't describe the feeling at that moment, just a knot in my heart that had to rely on Shen Ci's air, as if it had really dissipated.

The next day, before I even got out of bed, I heard a commotion.

The eldest brother lowered his voice in the dorm room, "This dog, still trying to play this moral kidnapping trick, dreaming!"

"Keep it down, today is Nian Nian's birthday, don't we want to surprise her?"

"The dog is standing downstairs, Nian Nian might not even be able to leave the dorm building!"

"Eldest brother, would it be illegal if I poured a basin of boiling water down?"

I got up and pulled back the curtain, "What's going on?"

"Shen Ci set up a huge flower arrangement downstairs to apologize to you."

I went to the window and saw Shen Ci in the crowd.

Wearing a suit and holding flowers, he stood in a heart-shaped rose, surrounded by candles. Behind him, the ordinary winding road was filled with champagne roses.

Su Ran, wearing a white dress, stood beside him, occasionally going up to comfort the anxious Shen Ci, and even helping him tidy up his clothes.

A breeze passed by, making them look more like a golden boy and jade girl.

Just then, the door of the dorm room suddenly opened and a person walked in holding a selfie stick, shouting loudly, "Gu Nian, where's Gu Nian?"

The eldest brother was about to speak, but she smiled and said, "Don't try to fool me. I've been standing at the door all morning and haven't seen Gu Nian come out."

"It's me." I looked quietly at them, "What's up?"

I knew her, she was Su Ran's good friend, named Li Wan.

Li Wan exclaimed in an exaggerated manner, almost wanting to smash her phone on my face.

"Oh my goodness, look at our leading lady, everyone says you're the campus flower, but now... don't you look that great? How heavy is your daily makeup?"

The second brother stood in front of me, angrily saying, "Are you crazy? Our Nian Nian looks beautiful even without makeup..."

Li Wan shrugged, took a glance at her phone screen, then held up the phone and started filming around the dorm room, causing everyone to frantically clean up the clutter on the table.

She continued in a surprised tone, "Goodness, this is the campus flower's dorm room, so messy, even messier than most male dorm rooms I've seen, Gu Nian, I never expected you to be like this in private..."

Her gaze towards me was full of implications, as if daring me to do something.

"What's the matter with you?" I ignored her provocations and asked.

She sneered, "The campus flower is really arrogant, her boyfriend has been waiting downstairs all morning just to apologize to you, and you don't even care about hurting people's feelings."

Li Wan panicked and looked at the phone screen, embarrassed and angry, "What are you talking about?"

"Gu Nian, don't change the subject, I came specifically to invite you downstairs." She emphasized the word "invite", I smiled, "Okay, you go out first, I need to change clothes."

She rolled her eyes, "Is your beauty all makeup? Gu Nian, don't delay, let's go on like this, let the campus heartthrob see your natural beauty."

"Okay." I quietly agreed with her proposal.
