Chapter 8:

Early the next morning, Zhang Man went out with a stack of books and exercises. Li Wei lives in the city center, about half an hour away by bus from her home.
The bus came quickly, and there was almost no waiting.
This year's city N had not yet passed the subway. Zhang Man sat on the bus and stared at the familiar scenery outside the window. Many of the past memories are a little fuzzy, but there is something about him, because in the years that followed, he went into dreams again and again, but I remember clearly.
Once in her previous life, she came out of Li Wei's house very late after finishing a make-up lesson, and he made an unprecedented offer to send her to the station.
It was late winter, and the green belt beside the road was still covered with unclean snow, and the street lights were dim, so there was a clear full moon in the sky.
The two of them walked along the asphalt road, and the biting evening breeze rustled the branches on both sides of the road. At that time, she liked to walk on the narrow road beside the green belt, but she accidentally stepped on the frozen ice, slipped under her feet, and lost her balance.
She remembered very clearly that Li Wei hugged her from the side to prevent her from falling.
Under the faint moonlight, the two heartbeats were faster and faster at one frequency. With sharp eyes, she saw his reddish pinna.
Neither of them spoke, but they seemed to be tacitly aware of each other.
So, so she couldn't accept it at all after that, he lied to her. The deceived anger dazzled her head and asked her to deny all the previous things, so that she would get so angry at him, and even deliberately date other boys in front of him.
Zhang Man remembered the boy's dark eyes, and in the last period of time before transferring to school, she almost lost all her looks. He became more and more solitary, withdrawn and stubborn, and the relationship between the two never went back to the past.
A proud person like him must have struggled, but in the end he compromised. He wrote in the love letter to her and asked if he could stay with him forever.
No reply was received.
She once gave him a candy but took it back, deceiving him a heart.
. ...
When the car arrived, Zhang Man walked into the nearby community, found Li Wei's house according to his memory, and pressed the doorbell. It took three or four minutes for someone to open the door. The boy saw that it was her, nodded to let her in, and took a pair of ladies slippers from the shoe cabinet.
She put on slippers and followed Li Wei to the study.
His house is large, but empty, with very little furniture. There are no entertainment tools such as TVs in the living room, only a small transparent coffee table.
But the cleaning was very clean and there was no odor at all.
Li Weishun took a chair from the living room and brought it into the study, and placed it next to his seat. The desk is so big that two people will not interfere with each other when used together.
"You want to drink water in the refrigerator. You do your homework first. If you don't know how to write it down, you will ask me in one hour." After he finished speaking, he continued the unfinished derivation.
Zhang Man wanted to find a topic: "Li Wei, what shall we have for lunch?"
The boy frowned. The last thoughts of last night were broken here. He is in a bad mood now and does not want to be disturbed.
I suppressed my irritability: "There is food in the refrigerator."
Zhang Man heard that there was food and became interested, and continued to ask: "Did you make it?"
"My mother did... shut up." He finally lost all patience.
I didn't expect to hear this answer. Zhang Man's heart was empty, and he clenched his schoolbag uncomfortably. She carefully restrained her breathing without showing a trace.
She sat for a while, with a faint guess in her heart, so she went to the bathroom under the pretext of going out of the study to the dining room.
Open the door of the refrigerator, there are two dishes, one meat and one vegetarian, which are properly placed on porcelain dishes. She went to the kitchen again, and the kitchen utensils were as clean as no one had ever used. So she glanced at the trash can, and sure enough, there were two takeaway boxes in it.
Zhang Man closed the refrigerator door, leaning on it and panting deeply. Only by tightening the palm of his hand can he restrain the uncomfortable shaking. The cold and panic triggered by the bottom of my heart made her feel that he was in the study a few steps away from her, but he seemed so far away.
...
After she calmed down, she returned to the study casually, took out the textbooks and problem sets and started studying.
The physics of the first year of high school is very simple for her now. In her previous life, she was admitted to the normal university in the province, where she studied physics. At that time, several classmates, including the teacher, didn't understand her, because in all subjects, she was always the weakest in physics.
Zhang Man didn't know why he chose physics, and finally stayed in H City's high school as an ordinary physics teacher.
After teaching physics for so many years, she has long been familiar with these simple kinematics. But the more she knows, the less he can teach her.
So Zhang Man casually picked one of the pages and randomly checked the options.
Because doing something that I'm already completely proficient in, an hour is really difficult.
After Zhang Mancao chose the multiple-choice questions, he randomly filled in a few formulas below some big questions, raised his hand and looked at his watch, only ten minutes had passed. So she pretended to be thinking about the problem, while raising her eyes to peek at Li Wei.
He still bites the pen habitually, his brows are not frowning as tight as they were at the beginning, it seems that he has a new idea about the problem at hand. There is a small red mole on his right earlobe, which looks very sexy. His lips have distinct lip lines and appear a little chapped. The long eyelashes flickered when thinking about the problem, and the dark eyes were so bright that they seemed to pretend the entire universe.
He picked up the pen and quickly made the derivation on the paper. The smooth thinking made him quickly finish writing a page. Zhang Man looked at the formulas on the paper, she could only understand a few bits and pieces, and she knew that it was probably the content of quantum mechanics.
He is a physical genius.
His perception and insight into this world is almost a hundred times better than others. Such people, after having a certain amount of knowledge, can often find new ideas in boring subjects.
And his ability to associate is very strong, a complex physical formula is a step-by-step mathematical derivation in the eyes of ordinary people, but in his eyes, it is a vivid physical image. He was able to naturally correspond those dead formulas to intuitive physical phenomena. This keen intuition allowed him to make many detours less than others.
Zhang Man gradually began to be in a daze.
I also met some good boys in my previous life at university, including working later. But in her heart, she always subconsciously compares them with the teenager in her memory, and no one else can make her heart beat like him, and will never forget it.
She loved his keenness in the past, and now, she also loves him for the other side of keen thinking.
Probably it was so engrossed that Li Wei knocked on the table in front of her with his right hand, and she recovered.
The boy was leaning over to check the problem set in front of her, his thin lips gradually pursed, and even a cold snort in the end.
He put down the set of exercises and pushed away from him, as if he never wanted to see the terrible answer again.
"You can transfer to liberal arts next semester. You are not suitable for physics."
"..."
Zhang Man opened his mouth, secretly saying that it was bad, patronizing the wrong choice, forgetting that things would be the opposite.
I can only force myself to help myself: "I am actually still very interested in physics, but I am a little uncomfortable when I just entered high school. And although I have a poor foundation, but my brain is not stupid, you can teach me, I will definitely do it."
The young man listened to her sincerely, his expression was a little gentle, and he took the paper back and looked carefully.
About ten minutes later, he turned to his side and looked at her seriously, his expression a little angry: "...I can't sum up your question, every one of your questions is different and there is no way. Zhang Man, one People’s thinking and logic, whether they are right or wrong, are at least the same. But your answer does not reflect the logic at all, so there is only one possibility, you are all randomly selected."
He stood up as he spoke, packed her book and test papers blankly, and put them in her bag.
"You go back, don't come in the future, your mind is not on studying, I don't want to waste our time."
Li Wei was disappointed in his heart. It seemed that this fair deal in his own eyes had long since changed. What she wants may not be what she said at the beginning.
. ...I can't fool him at all.
Seeing that he was going to drive her away, Zhang Man was anxious for a moment, stood up and stopped in front of him: "Li Wei...Don't be angry, and don't drive me away. I admit that I just wrote silly. The teacher said that I was completely I didn’t understand it, and if I didn’t write it, I was worried that you thought my attitude was bad. So, I just wrote it all."
She lowered her head and pulled his sleeves carefully, her voice low: "Li Wei, I don't want to be transferred to a normal class next semester. Only you can help me..."
While talking, tears involuntarily flowed out, and the emotion that had just been suppressed was mobilized at this moment. All kinds of distress and worry for him were expressed at this time, but it was like being misunderstood and uncomfortable.
Her tears fell on the floor, and quickly became a puddle of water stains, as obvious on the light-colored wooden floor. The boy stared at the water stain, his heart suddenly twitched.
He squeezed his palm.
He has seen a lot of people crying, sobbing quietly, tearing down their faces, hysterical...the world is full of conditions, things are fickle, and there are always various unsatisfactory things. But those crying never made him stop, because to him, crying is just the helpless fragility of incompetent people in the face of unmanageable problems.
But now, she was pulling the corner of his clothes with red eyes and tears in front of him. He suddenly felt the same, and a corner of her heart felt strangely sour as she sobbed.
Is he speaking too hard, or that he shouldn't ask her for his own requirements, nor should he be too confident to guess her thoughts.
He kept his voice down as much as possible, took a few tissues from the table and handed it to her, and said uncomfortably: "Don't cry...If you still want to learn, let's continue."
Fortunately, the girl in front of her heard what he said, and slowly stopped crying, wiped her face clean, sat down and took out the book and exercise set again and spread it between the two.
She had just finished crying, her eyes were still wet, and her mouth was pursed slightly, as if she was still aggrieved. She sniffed and poked a topic on the exercise book with her pen: "This."
White and tender fingers held the pen, which formed a sharp contrast with the black ink on the exercise book.
Li Wei suddenly felt a little itchy in his heart. He hurriedly shifted his gaze, not daring to look at the girl's red cheeks.
