Chapter 422 - 163: You Are the Meteor, I Am the Lonely Star
"November 18th, the weather is sunny."
"Almost everyone on campus has been talking about the Leonid Meteor Shower that occurs every thirty-three years. Shiqing’s classmates and friends are no different."
"When ’Meteor Garden’ was airing, did you think about watching a meteor shower with someone you like or your best friend, and making the most beautiful wish to the meteors? I think this might be the most romantic thing in the world!"
"After tonight, in the early hours of November 19th, the Leonid Meteor Shower will finally grace us with its presence. According to the observatory, the conditions for viewing the celestial event are excellent. Shiqing is here to remind everyone not to miss this dazzling show brought by the Tempel-Tuttle comet!"
On the Zhejiang University campus, after class, students walking down the campus paths heard the campus radio broadcast related to the Leonid Meteor Shower, which has been the hottest topic recently.
However, while the meteor shower is well-anticipated, many guys are more interested in something else.
"Who is this Sunny Day? Her broadcasts have been frequent lately, and her voice is so pleasant, sweet, and soft!"
"She must be a new broadcaster. I’ve heard that the senior students in the fourth year had to step down to prepare for graduation, and new people fill in around this time each year."
"This newcomer is really something. I love her voice, and she must be a beauty in real life!"
"Hard to say, buddy. Don’t get your hopes up, I’ve seen many broadcasters with lovely voices who don’t look all that great. Remember Xiao Yu? Even calling her average is kind. So, it’s best not to dwell on who they are so that you can keep your fantasies alive!"
...
Every university has campus radio, and female broadcasters with styles that are straightforward and generous, gentle as water, or adorably cute become campus stars and topics of conversation among male students over meals.
The majority believe that female broadcasters are beauties, with pretty faces to match their heavenly voices. However, reality can be harsh, as fans’ fantasies are often shattered when they see these broadcasters in person.
"Hehe, you asked the right person about this Sunny Day. I have inside info about who she is. While you might be disappointed with other broadcasters not matching your imagination, this one is a campus celebrity and definitely a beauty!"
A certain male student spoke mysteriously.
"Who is it?"
His companions immediately perked up, asking in unison.
"Qin Shiqing, the school belle from the Public Information Management Department. Her QQ nickname is Sunny Day!"
"Wow, really? I didn’t expect it to be her, but it matches perfectly with the voice I imagined, flawless!"
"If I could watch the meteor shower with Qin Shiqing, it would probably be the most beautiful memory of my life!"
"You’re dreaming. Go line up at the school gate; there’s still a bunch of rich and handsome guys waiting ahead of you. When will it ever be our turn!"
"..."
Half an hour later.
"Happy times always pass so quickly, and although reluctant, it’s time to say goodbye to our listeners. I’m the campus broadcaster, Sunny Day. See you next time!"
In the Zhejiang University campus broadcast room, Qin Shiqing took off her headphones and placed them on the table, letting out a slight sigh.
During the campus broadcast just now, she seemed very excited about the upcoming meteor shower, as if she was in a great mood. However, that was just the basic professionalism of a broadcaster.
No matter how good or bad the mood is, it must not affect work.
In fact, the young girl has been a bit troubled lately.
This is a meteor shower rare even in a century in Xia Country, happening in the first year of the New Era, coinciding with the recent broadcast of ’Meteor Garden,’ fulfilling all her romantic fantasies.
However, someone just doesn’t get romance, ruining the mood.
The higher the expectation, the greater the disappointment.
Leaving the broadcast room, returning to the dormitory.
Xiao Yue, Deng Xiaoman, Chen Zi, Shen Jia, and other roommates were also enthusiastically discussing the meteor shower in the early hours of tonight.
Only Yan Qiuwen wasn’t joining in, instead, she held a book in her hands. The genius girl is just like an emotionless machine, seemingly untouched by romantic sentiments.
However, not feeling it doesn’t dampen her curiosity. The book Yan Qiuwen held was titled ’Psychology of Romanticism,’ aligning with the hot topic in a way, and indirectly participating.
From a psychological perspective, the Leonid Meteor Shower caters to the rarity principle.
At the same time, it has great visual effects and artistry.
People love to wish upon meteors, believing such wishes are easier to come true, adding an air of mystery.
Meteors are passionate, unrestrained, and imaginative.
These are all conditions of Romanticism Psychology, fully possessed by meteor showers, so it’s not surprising that people, especially young people pursuing individuality and freedom, yearn for them.
"Shiqing, you’re back."
The girls greeted Qin Shiqing casually.
Xiao Yue asked casually, "So, has your guy changed his mind?"
Speaking of which, Qin Shiqing became a little annoyed.
The other day, when she pretended to go offline, her childhood friend didn’t come to comfort her, which was fine, but he acted like nothing happened. He hadn’t even contacted her on QQ these days.
