wake up daydreaming

In the second semester of his junior year, Chen Yuqian ushered in the last and most fulfilling season of his four-year undergraduate program.

As it turned out, his selection as captain was prescient. The first stop of U Swimming Team is the international college student friendly competition in Southeast Asia. From applying for a visa to landing, Chen Yuqian has always been the main force in communicating with many parties.His foreign language is not as fluent as Yu Zhou, but there is no problem in daily communication.The swimming team as a whole achieved good results. After returning to China, they did not rest for a few days, and then flew to the east as a group, and then all the way south, returning to the U zone for the last stop.

——This year's National University Swimming Championships is hosted by University of U. The swimming pool has been renovated during the winter vacation. Even the staff at the service desk have issued new uniforms. No matter which one is in spring, summer, autumn and winter, it is booming.Every time Chen Yuqian and others swipe their campus cards to enter the training area, the aunts at the front desk will cheer them up enthusiastically, hearing Lu Zhuo's goosebumps all over his body, and happily complaining to his teammates in a low voice: "Will there be such a thing on the day of the game?" Plant a cheering group, or my toes can dig out a deep water area on the flat ground."

However, no alpha understands alpha's psychology better than Xu Zhenhua: "I think you think the aunts are getting old. If the whole cheering group is full of omega, you can't wait to jump into the deep water with your arms around them."

"It's great that you have a girlfriend." Lu Zhuo turned back, "Be careful not to be overheard by the senior sister, or you will say that you have turned into an omega."

"That's better than some people who are still single." Xu Zhenhua smacked seven inches, "What's the name of that little reporter, Xiao... Xiao Xiao, right? If you want to tell me, you are too young to have seen omega too much , Isn’t it just that I was interviewed by someone for a few sentences, my soul was hooked, and I was issued a good person card for more than half a year, and I still can’t forget her, it’s unnecessary, it’s really unnecessary.”

"But the person she likes doesn't like her either," Lu Zhuo felt lucky, "Then it's not impossible for me..."

"That suggestion is for the old man to revisit, compare her eyes and tone when she interviewed Yu Zhou and interview you, and then you will accept the present—hey, boy, what's the matter with you, brother, you don't like to listen to the truth, Don't do it either." Xu Zhenhua turned around while running away, flirting with Lu Zhuo, but he didn't close his mouth that needed beating.Feeling wronged, Lu Zhuo asked Chen Yuqian for off-court help, Xu Zhenhua gloated and shook his head: "Hey, he won't talk to you, he also has a partner!"

Xu Zhenhua's playful tone managed to make Chen Yuqian laugh. At most, Chen Yuqian separated the two people who were pecking at each other. I really didn't feel ashamed to say that the alpha of the school girl you have a crush on is my "object".

Compared with his classmates, Chen Yuqian has a deeper friendship with these people in the swimming team. It stands to reason that he is out of the order, so he should bring him here to meet his brothers, have a meal together, and get to know each other.

But Yu Zhou's status is too special, and he has as much news as a big star.Both of them are Alphas, so it's really not appropriate to make too much publicity. Chen Yuqian has never found a chance to make it public. On the day of the championship, Xu Zhenhua was able to openly bring his senior sister to the athlete's rest area to watch the game up close. Chen Yuqian thought about it, You can only get a ticket for the front row of the auditorium. U University’s host advantage is not forfeited, as long as there are some of our own athletes entering the arena, the cheers from the auditorium can’t wait to lift the roof of the stadium.Even if the staff maintaining order shouted loudly, when the athletes reached the sprint stage, there would still be a large number of students standing up from their seats one by one.

This alma mater pride is pushed to the extreme in the 4*100 relay.Chen Yuqian was the last shot. Before entering the water, the last scene he saw on the shore was that the players on the left and right dived in one second faster than him. He didn't care about anything else, but only wanted to narrow the gap. After turning around at 50 meters, he faintly heard the audience shouting something neatly, and was immediately swallowed up by the sound of water flow. After he touched the wall, he lay on the waterline panting, squinting and looking up at the real-time scoreboard on the large electronic screen. Only later did he realize that everyone shouted his name, as if he was some kind of hero.He smiled shyly, and felt that he was indeed a hero. When he landed, he raised his swimming cap high, pointed at the school badge printed on it, and then threw it hard at the audience.Lu Zhuo and Xu Zhenhua rushed over to hook him up, and after throwing away his swimming goggles, they were so excited that they almost took off his swimming trunks.This is a big joke, and only straight men can make this kind of joke. Chen Yuqian looked at the audience, wanting to see Yu Zhou's expression, it might be very exciting, but the people in the first row of the audience were all dancing Waving the small red flag, Chen Yuqian searched for a long time, but did not see Yu Zhou.

The athletes were interviewed by the school newspaper after the game, and the editor-in-chief sent many reporters, eager to write one-on-one biographies for them.Xu Zhenhua said that he was not optimistic about Lu Zhuo and Xiao Xiao, but he still pushed the brother to the primary school girl carelessly to create opportunities for them.Qiao Yi, an old acquaintance, was in charge of interviewing Chen Yuqian. Seeing that he was absent-minded when answering a few routine questions, Qiao Yi couldn't help giving him a provocative sentence: "Then I'll write... the first thing you see when you get out of the water is not to look at the scorer." , but look for Yu Zhou in the auditorium."

Chen Yuqian's eyes were different.

Joey knew that he had guessed right, and the smile on his face was even bigger.To this day, he is still one of the few, or even the only outsider who knows about the relationship between the two of them. If he breaks the news first-hand in an interview, he will definitely be a hot topic on the campus forum.

"But he seems to have left early." With a lot of physical exertion, Chen Yuqian, who hadn't calmed down yet, sounded tired and arched his back. From a distance, he looked like a big dog wearing an Elizabethan collar, and his tail drooped Looking, lost like a floor lamp.

Qiao Yi comforted him: "Boss Yu has been too busy recently."

"Well. He is preparing to start a new energy company." Speaking of Yu Zhou, Chen Yuqian instantly felt relieved.He said that Yu Zhou's former tutor in the youth class was originally from U District, and after retirement, he served as an honorary professor at U University. U University’s nuclear physics major started late, and its commercial operation is a virgin land.Academician Qian loves to support the younger generation. After the two met at the beginning of the year, Yu Zhou had the idea of ​​establishing a joint-stock enterprise relying on the scientific research resources of U University. If the project goes well, no matter whether it will be listed in the future, U University will be the company Its largest shareholder, which does not interfere in internal affairs, only communicates in scientific and technological cooperation.

Chen Yuqian said: "The two of them ordered a batch of equipment from the Northern Federation a few months ago, all of which are prototypes of precision instruments. They are placed in the U-Macro-scale Material Science Laboratory, and a total of three shifts of personnel are testing them 24 hours a day. Assembling, he has to go to the site to supervise the work every day, so he is really busy."

Qiao Yi nodded: "Have you noticed that you are more happy talking about Yu Zhou than talking about yourself?"

"Is there?" Chen Yuqian asked knowingly.He smiled slightly, but Joey was not as relaxed as he was. He sighed and said, "It's not just the instruments that have caused him a lot of trouble recently."

Qiao Yi has been an intern at a paper media since her sophomore year, and she has not left her job in the past two years. She was fortunate enough to attend many meetings with her editor.Not long ago, he went to listen to a general nuclear report lectured by Academician Qian. The lecture hall was full of people who came to listen, including students and non-governmental scientific research enthusiasts.The topic of Academician Qian’s speech revolved around nuclear weapons research. When it came to the questioning session, everyone who got the microphone habitually greeted and complimented Mr. Qian first. With half an hour to spare, I asked Yu Zhou to come on stage and talk about how to use nuclear energy in peaceful times, and then logically lead to several projects that are being promoted.It's fine if he doesn't talk about it, but once he talks about it, the underlying problem can be called acute.

Someone asked: "Will it take another 50 years for the experiment of controlled nuclear fusion? Will it take another 50 years after 50 years?"

Yu Zhou replied: "Scientists at home and abroad have made many breakthroughs in this field, and it may take 30 years from now."

Someone asked again: "Then has this field been burning money and hasn't produced any output yet?"

Yu Zhou replied: "So the exploration of commercialization must also keep up, just like what we are doing—"

An uncle interrupted Yu Zhou's answer with a questioning tone.He strongly suspects that controlled nuclear fusion is a hoax, and he is not entirely unaware that he can point out that the tokamak model mentioned by Yu Zhou is a product of the 50s.Such an old antique is still being researched, and there is no reason why it can't be found. It's not a scam, what is it?

As soon as this was said, even Joey felt offended.This uncle is obviously not a practitioner, but has read a few explosive articles taken out of context, and he thinks he understands it, and because Yu Zhou is young, he dares to speak nonsense in front of him.

When did Yu Zhou suffer from this kind of anger, he should have turned his face in displeasure. Yu Zhou continued to explain that the tokamak is a magnetic confinement model. Since it is a model, it can only be said to be classic and can stand the test of time. , rather than necessarily being eliminated...

Chen Yuqian was competing in another place that day, Yu Zhou was afraid of affecting his competition, so he didn't tell him what happened in the report meeting. Without Qiao Yi's report, Chen Yuqian would never have known that the scene was so chaotic and wonderful. .Both he and Qiao Yi fell into a short silence. After finishing his interview, Xu Zhenhua took the opportunity to chat with Chen Yuqian again, threatening that he would not watch this year's special scholarship defense without Chen Yuqian, and Chen Yuqian wanted him to Be sober, each academy can only push one candidate every year, how could he be.

"Have you forgotten that you have won glory for the school just now? With your current popularity, no one on the school road does not know you." Before leaving, Xu Zhenhua did not forget to wink at Qiao Yi, who thought he was handsome, and asked him to be sure. Write the report beautifully, and Chen Yuqian can put it in the defense ppt at that time.Qiao Yi agreed verbally, and did not forget to scare Chen Yuqian, saying that he must also write Yu Zhou's part. Yu Zhou called Chen Yuqian at this time, and he really went to the experiment suddenly because of something. room, now that it was finally resolved, I invited Chen Yuqian to have dinner.

Qiao Yi deliberately raised her voice, saying that she would also have a celebration banquet, but Yu Zhou was silent on the phone for a few seconds before reluctantly welcoming her.The place Yu Zhou chose was near the school. In the box, Qiao Yi inevitably brought up the report and gave Yu Zhou a suggestion.Yu Zhou is best at telling stories. To put it bluntly, he packs an idea infinitely, and then blows it up into a hype.Then he should not talk about the details of experiments and instruments, but talk about life after the realization of controllable nuclear fusion, such as Mars immigration.Yu Zhou asked him back, I have unlimited energy, why not turn the desert of the earth into an oasis first, Qiao Yi shook his head, how could emigrating to desert be as cool as emigrating to Mars, which sounds more challenging to the imagination.

"Then your omega is really difficult to serve." Yu Zhou twitched the corner of his mouth, "I tell stories well, you think I'm bragging, I tell details well, you think I'm boring."

Throwing his chopsticks away, Yu Zhou muttered, "I'm so bored".Qiao Yi looked at Chen Yuqian who watched him and Yu Zhou bickering silently most of the time: "So you can only find an Alpha."

"I'm happy!" Yu Zhou's eyes changed when he mentioned Chen Yuqian.If Qiao Yi hadn't been chattering about this meal, Yu Zhou wouldn't have had such a late meal with Chen Yuqian. After several glances at the phone screen, Yu Zhou finally breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing his expression, Qiao Yi asked: "Can my mission be over?"

After finishing speaking, I realized that I seemed to have slipped my tongue.Chen Yuqian cast a puzzled look at him, Qiao Yi couldn't hold back before leaving, patted Chen Yuqian's strong chest, and deliberately aggravated his curiosity: "I won't participate in the whole work."

After Yu Zhou walked to the parking lot and touched his pocket, he let out an obvious "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.Before Chen Yuqian could react, he took out a key he had never seen before from the other pocket, and pressed it twice randomly, and a little turtle parked next to his car sensed it.

Yu Zhou said seriously, "This is God's will."

From this moment on, the curvature of Chen Yuqian's mouth has not disappeared.He obediently asked Yu Zhou to put on a helmet for him, then sat in the back, and drove back to school as Zhou drove.The banner with red background and yellow characters emerged from a place two-thirds of the drive away from the dormitory building, all of which praised Chen Yuqian, and there was no repetition like the signature.Chen Yuqian only found out after listening to the class monitor that this was originally a class activity, but people from other classes in the same hospital heard about it and joined in one after another. Even if they didn't know Chen Yuqian, they spontaneously left their sincere blessings.It takes time to make banners. Yu Zhou successfully delayed Chen Yuqian’s time and brought him back. He couldn’t help complaining all the way while riding. He felt that this way of pulling banners to create surprises is very stupid. It’s too stupid. It’s 100% true Cao Ze's proposal had nothing to do with him. Chen Yuqian put his arms around his waist and said softly, "Thank you."

Yu Zhou fell silent, looking a little disappointed, as usual with a bad temper.

The little tortoise finally stopped outside the green belt of the dormitory building. Instead of choosing to go together, he watched Chen Yuqian approach the students waiting at the door, and took the flowers and the last banner with the championship results from them.Prolonged cheers came to him, and he put his hands in his pockets to hold the metal object that was still warm, and Chen Yuqian's words lingered in his ears: I also give you this medal.
