Description
## Bug Report
Please answer these questions before submitting your issue. Thanks!
### 1. Minimal reproduce step (Required)
prepare data
```sql
drop table if exists t0;
CREATE TABLE t0(c0 BIGINT PRIMARY KEY);
INSERT INTO t0 VALUES (1),(2),(3),(4),(5),(6),(7);
INSERT IGNORE INTO t0(c0) VALUES (-1);
ALTER TABLE t0 SET TIFLASH REPLICA 1;
```
execute query
#### May require multiple executions to reproduce.
```sql
SELECT /*+ read_from_storage(tikv[t0]) */ t0.c0 FROM t0 WHERE RIGHT(t0.c0, ((t0.c0)^('1')));
SELECT /*+ read_from_storage(tiflash[t0]) */ t0.c0 FROM t0 WHERE RIGHT(t0.c0, ((t0.c0)^('1')));
```

Contributor guide
Research direction
Run the provided setup and execute both SELECT statements, using the TiKV and TiFlash storage hints, then compare their results. Trace the RIGHT expression's evaluation along the two storage paths and verify the fix by confirming both queries return equal results on the reproduction data.
