However, she had a feeling that it was not something good. Joesse was even more on guard.
As soon as she arrived at the back garden, she saw a few old men playing chess. The ones who were doing the business were old master Zheng and Grandpa Qin.
They seemed to be so engrossed that they did not notice joesseâs arrival.
Joes had no intention of being troubled. She lowered her footsteps and got closer, watching their game from afar.
At this moment, the chess game had become a game of chess. Neither side was willing to give in, and they were both thinking about how to play next.
Old master Zheng held a white chess piece in his hand and frowned as he looked at the chaotic chess game.
âOld Qin, what kind of game are you playing? itâs getting messier the more I look at it!â
Old master Qin was not to be outdone and directly replied,ââYou said that my chess is messy. Look at which pieces you have moved.
Relying on your moves that have crossed the Chu River Han boundary is of no use. Do you believe that I will make you lose directly?â
After saying that, the old Qin master unceremoniously moved a chess piece on the chessboard.
The situation seemed to have cleared up a little after he made his move. It was obvious that old master Zheng was at a disadvantage.
âYou ...â
Old master Zheng felt a little embarrassed, but he didnât show it on his face.
......
He rolled his eyes and saw Joes standing not far away. He said happily,ââSisi, youâre already here?â
After saying that, old master Qin and the other old masters who were playing chess looked at Qiao si.
It was a little embarrassing that all eyes were on her.
âGrandpa Zheng, Iâve only just arrived. I saw that you were playing chess, so I didnât want to disturb you.â Joes laughed.
âSo thatâs how it is ...â
Old master Zheng nodded his head in understanding. He stood up and walked to Jossiâs side, ignoring the chess game that he had yet to finish.
âSince sisi is here, thereâs no point for me to continue playing chess with old Qin. Why donât sisi play with us?â
Old master Zhengâs eyes curved into crescents as he laughed. Old master Qin controlled his urge to roll his eyes and exposed him without any hesitation.
âCome on, I canât afford to lose. Iâm about to lose this game, and sisi just happened to come. Itâs an excuse that delivered itself to my door, right?â
Only old master Qin would say this so bluntly.
Old master Zheng was not convinced and said,ââOld Qin, what do you mean by that? Sisi is my granddaughter-in-law.
Since sheâs here, shouldnât I be taking care of her? Old Qin, the older you are, the more ideas you have!â
Not only did he not admit to his crimes, but he also mocked old master Qin.
When old master Qin heard this, he was so angry that he blew at his beard and glared at her. If not for joesseâs presence, he would not have been able to control himself.
When the other old men heard the interesting conversation between the two, they all laughed out loud.
But this kind of scene, they had also seen many of it these few years. They were already in a state of being used to it.
Looking at this scene, the corners of Qiao SIâs mouth curved up slightly. She felt that the friendship between old master Qin and old master Zheng was definitely extraordinary.
Just like her and Chen Anna.
On the surface, they seemed to be unforgiving with their words, but in reality, something had happened. The two of them were the first to think for each other.
After the farce ended, old master Zheng ignored old master Qin and turned to say,ââSisi, how about playing chess with us?â
âSure, but my go skills arenât that good. Grandpas, please show mercy.â Joes said humbly.
The people present were all old people who had lived for more than half of their lives, and they could see things clearly.
It was the same when she played chess last time. She lost the game because she couldnât see the big picture better than old master Zheng.
However, it was not a loss. At least he knew where he was lacking and what he was lacking.
Moreover, Joes was also very clear why old master Zheng had suddenly asked her to play chess today.
Apart from the reason he had mentioned before, if nothing unexpected happened, he probably wanted her to be more familiar with these old grandpas.
These old grandpas, including old master Qin, were all influential figures in the business world or the military.
It was never a loss to know more.
Moreover, she was Zheng Zeyiâs girlfriend now. This kind of behavior was normal and did not involve too much profit.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Not long after Qiao si finished speaking, old master Qin quickly said,âSisi, since elder Zheng has said so, why donât you play a round with me?â
At this time, another old man couldnât stand it anymore and couldnât help but scold with a smile,ââOld Qin, is there anyone like you? Youâve been playing chess for decades and youâre here to bully a little girl. â
âThatâs right, who doesnât know that you love to play chess? now youâve even dug a hole for sisi!â
â¦â¦â¦
The other old masters couldnât stand it anymore, but old master Zheng didnât say anything. He kept looking at old master Qin with a strange look.
After receiving so much contempt, old master Qin was furious.
He patted the table and said,ââYou guys are good. I donât have that kind of intention. I just want to play chess with sisi.â
âSisi, donât believe him. Heâs been in the chess world for decades and has never met a worthy opponent.
I canât bear to see them bully a child like you. â An old man said with a smile.
They didnât have any other intentions. They were just afraid that joesse would be upset if she lost to old master Qin.
The longer they lived, the more they noticed.
Joes knew what they were thinking. She glanced at old master Zheng and smiled.ââThank you for your kind intentions, grandpas, but Grandpa Zheng called me here today to play chess.
Itâs also a good thing to witness the skills of the grandpas, so you donât have to worry at all. â
The scene fell silent for a moment.
The old Qin master raised his head proudly.ââDid you hear that? sisi said so herself.â
âSisi is kind,â old master Zheng rolled his eyes at him.âSheâs just too embarrassed to reject you.â
It had to be said that this was also one of the reasons.
âItâs good that you know what youâre doing. Weâre just casually saying a few words, hahahaha. Donât take it to heart.â Grandpa Chen said straightforwardly.
After making her decision, joesse followed old master Qin to the stone table.
The two of them sat face to face, cleaned up the mess, and began to play again.
Old master Qin was the first to place a stone.
He lived up to the words of those old men. He attacked fiercely from the start and made the situation clear.
However, Joes was not at a disadvantage yet. After a careful observation, she found a suitable position and placed her white piece.
Even the other old men who were watching couldnât help but clap and cheer at the spot he chose.
