I Drew a Card in the Exam Hall and Got Qian Xuesen

Reborn in the gaokao exam hall as a high school senior.

I bound myself to the [Starry Card Pool]. My first draw: Qian Xuesen.

I scored 38 in math and said I was going to top the exams. The whole class laughed.

That is, until the rocket I built by hand flew into the sky in front of the entire school.

And until Li Bai, Du Fu, Newton, Einstein... the brightest minds in human civilization were drawn one after another.

Only then did the people who had laughed at me realize:

Top marks in the gaokao weren't my finish line. They were my starting point.

At the awards ceremony.
