Brilliant Starry Wilds

[Sensitive, Self-Critical Photographer ✘ Scheming, Blunt, Arrogant Programmer]

Everyone knows that Chi Ye, the computer science prodigy at Jing University, is exactly what his name suggests: wild, untamed, and brazenly carefree.

A face that could wreak havoc on the world, paired with a mouth that could infuriate anyone.

He has countless admirers, but can't even be bothered to spare them a glance. "Sorry, my life doesn't need a bug like romance."

But no one knows that the moment he sees Li Xican, the rational System he's so proud of crashes completely, and his heartbeat goes haywire like he's caught a virus.

The way she lowers her eyes to check her camera, the little way she pinches her hem when she's nervous, even the vulnerability she keeps hidden in her heart... all become "program errors" he can't fix.

Li Xican, the new "department beauty" in the School of Media, hides a sensitive, self-critical heart beneath her sweet and obedient exterior.

She thinks she'll always stay behind the camera, a quiet observer who never hopes to become the story's protagonist.

Until that unruly boy barges into her frame. Amid falling osmanthus blossoms, he raises an eyebrow at the camera and grins boldly. "Junior~ You have to take responsibility for secretly photographing me!"

At that moment, her heart pounds like a drum, but she has no idea that someone else's is beating even faster.

When a slow burn meets a direct confession

He confesses beneath a meteor shower: "Li Xican, you're the only bug in my code..."

When the camera of a socially anxious girl finally focuses on him

"Chi Ye! My camera may lose focus, but when I look at you, it always focuses automatically."

When a squirrel hiding in a tree hollow meets a fox who coaxes her with candy

It turns out the perfect algorithm is the rhythm of two hearts beating in sync!
