Features: Ten years ago, Professor Lü Yizhong, a mathematics professor teaching overseas, was invited to join Jingzi University, which was still in its early stages of development. In the simple world of "probability," "topology," and "complex functions," he had to face more complex issues such as departmental reforms, promotions, and interpersonal relationships. Ideals seemed fragile, and how could dreams be pursued? Ten years later, the office building had changed its name, a small garden had been erected with a statue, and the friends and foes of that time had either left or scattered. Returning to the familiar place, Yizhong couldn't help but chuckle. The novel ends calmly, leaving everything with profound meaning.
