Once he confirmed she wasn’t from the community, he relaxed, took a drag, and asked: “Who are you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Qingzhou vaguely replied he hadn’t decided yet, maybe just pick any school. He didn’t want to get dragged into details—if he said he could score 700, Tian Shuang would have even more questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Beijing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah, the school organized a two-day visit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After talking for a while, Tian Shuang began asking which school Xu Qingzhou planned to apply to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By May, even the evening breeze felt warm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m Tian Shuang! It’s only been three years—have you already forgotten me?” the girl asked skeptically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that, Xu Qingzhou snapped to attention—all memories flooded back. This girl had been his desk partner in junior high, and after graduation, she moved with her family to Shanghai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Halfway through his cigarette, a startled cry came from behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xu Qingzhou?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Shuang stared at his cigarette, astonished: “Xu Qingzhou, after all these years, you’ve actually learned to smoke?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In junior high, Xu Qingzhou had been as quiet and awkward as ever—short, ugly, and unremarkable except for his grades. Tian Shuang had often teased him. Within two minutes, he was forced to absorb all her updates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>!.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Shuang took the water and introduced the boy: “This is my junior high classmate—we were desk partners for a year. Back then, me and several other girls loved to tease him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The memories had returned, but they weren’t pleasant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah, I smoke when I’m stressed,” Xu Qingzhou replied indifferently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Shuang sighed, remarking: “It’s nice to run into an old classmate—I was just regretting I didn’t get into Beijing Institute of Technology.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only eight o’clock, and the street was crowded, mostly local residents out for a post-dinner stroll.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here, |e⟩ and |e⟩ represent two energy states of the system. The complex coefficients c(t) and c(t) are assigned specific values. Assuming at the initial time t=0, the system is in an equal-probability superposition state. Finally, by applying the properties and rules of exponential functions to analyze the time evolution of the quantum state—yes, the derivation in between should now be complete.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, he’s my friend—he came back with me this time,” Tian Shuang shook her head, seemingly unwilling to dwell on the topic. “I haven’t been back in three years—Rongcheng has changed a lot.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, the boy’s wariness dropped significantly—he could tell from her tone that Tian Shuang looked down on a guy like him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He squinted, mentally working through the function derivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Shuang kept talking; Xu Qingzhou chimed in occasionally. Mostly, she prattled on, radiating the superiority of a big-city returnee—her chatter gave him a headache, but he didn’t want to leave just yet, not with the cigarette he’d just lit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xiao Tian,” a boy approached with two bottles of water, eyeing Xu Qingzhou warily. He opened Tian Shuang’s bottle for her and asked: “Who’s this?” The boy was about the same height as Xu Qingzhou, but his appearance fell far short.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Shuang’s grades were solid; her goal for the college entrance exam was Beijing Institute of Technology.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boyfriend?” Xu Qingzhou looked at the boy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Shuang’s grandmother was ill, so she came over on the weekend to visit. The boy, Wang Jiangfei, was her classmate since childhood; they’d known each other since elementary school, but he’d moved to Shanghai after primary school. When Tian Shuang went there, they ended up in the same class again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Xu Qingzhou asked if he was her boyfriend, the boy’s eyes lit up, hopeful, as he glanced at Tian Shuang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Shuang was surprised: “You did so well in junior high, got into the elite class at Chengnan High—why set your sights only on schools within Sichuan?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm, I’ll wait and see after the scores come out,” Xu Qingzhou replied casually—he’d long passed the age of seeking superiority over high schoolers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside Tian Shuang, Wang Jiangfei smiled warmly and said earnestly: “Actually, you shouldn’t be discouraged. The college entrance exam is just the first hurdle in life. If you work hard once you get to university, you can still catch up to others.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Maybe,” Xu Qingzhou replied noncommittally. He had no desire to continue the conversation. The words sounded like encouragement, but carried a condescending, insincere tone he found repulsive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",939,"2026-06-20T21:06:39.533Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","f78d6028ade09cb26dc609e52c9d018a282264ee492f82f4977814fb3f4e811d","i-m-focused-on-science-but-you-want-to-trick-me--chapter-25","i-m-focused-on-science-but-you-want-to-trick-me--chapter-23",790,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-m-focused-on-science-but-you-want-to-trick-me--cover.jpg"]
