Chapter 9: Did I Even Study At University...

The consultation room did not even have a single empty seat.

The third-year students preparing for graduate entrance exams were all focused on studying.

Next to the lectern, sat the professor of University of Jin Ling's mathematics department, Tang Zhiwei. He put the newspaper in his hand down and started to meticulously look at the question on the draft paper. His right hand flipped the pen cover repetitively.

Lu Zhou stood next to him. He clearly understood that this little gesture meant that he was in his deep thinking mode.

"Where did you get this question?" asked Tang Zhiwei suddenly after staring at the draft paper for a long time.

"The textbook mentioned the Fourier series, so I went to the library to find related materials. I found variants of the Fourier inversion theorem and a few applications for the variants. I tried to derive them and was stuck on this one step," said Lu Zhou with an apologetic smile. His facial expression was full of gratefulness.

Tang Zhiwei looked at Lu Zhou for a second before looking back at the draft paper. He put the pen cover down and picked up a piece of chalk. He walked next to the blackboard and paused for a second. His then reached out and started to draft the question on the blackboard.

Lu Zhou looked at the blackboard with immense focus. Perhaps it was because he had already done his homework on these type of questions, he found himself to be able to keep up with the teacher's pace.

The noise created by the chalk on the podium attracted the attention of the third-year math students that were studying. Occasionally, they would look up and stare blankly at the formula that was written on the blackboard before looking back down quickly.

Emmm...

What are they writing?

Time passed by slowly and without them knowing, the entire blackboard was full.

Tang Zhiwei wrote from the blackboard's upper left corner all the way to the lower right corner. He stopped writing and looked back at Lu Zhou before asking, "Do you understand this part?"

Lu Zhou looked intently at the blackboard and nodded, "I get it."

Tang Zhiwei lifted his eyebrows as he asked, "Do you really understand?"

Lu Zhou said, "I really understand it."

Tang Zhiwei did not say much and started to wipe the blackboard with the eraser. He took the chalk and continued to write on the blackboard. He changed his judgment of Lu Zhou's character.

He hated two types of students. The students that asked him for extra marks and the fake students that would purposely ask him very difficult questions.

Especially the latter, as it purely wasted his time!

He clearly was uninterested in maths, yet he acted like he was doing research. Disgusting! This type of people only wanted to get close with the teachers. They completely forgot the point of studying.

Tang Zhiwei was writing the finishing parts and had only a few lines left. He suddenly stopped and looked back at Lu Zhou before asking with a laugh, "I'll finish writing here. You should be able to understand right?"

Lu Zhou nodded, "I understand... Thanks, Professor!"

Chen Yushan sat at the corner of the front row seats. She was secretly observing the two people on the podium. She heard the back and forth conversation of "Understand?" "Understood." Her face had a confused expression written on it.
