qiao zhichuâs phone vibrated as soon as he left chen wangâs training base. he had received a sum of money. chen wang had sent him the remaining payment for the custom-made go jar. even though they were good friends, the two of them had always been fair and clear when it came to money.
he never urged chen wang to ask for money. chen wang was also very obedient. almost as soon as he received something, he would send him money immediately. over the years, they had developed a tacit understanding.
the training base was in chuanbei. qiao zhichu drove straight to the jing family.
old mr. qiao and the jing familyâs old master were old friends, so even though the jing family was abroad, the two families had been in contact all these years. qiao zhichu had brought many gifts to his door, and a certain big boss was very happy to see him. fu qinyuan happened to be there as well, so he asked the two of them to stay for lunch.
qiao zhichu even took the opportunity to show off his cooking skills.
jing hanchuan looked at the person beside him. â you two are cousins. why are you so different? â
one died from a crippled hand, and the other was too coincidental.
fu qinyuan pursed his lips and did not say anything. he got up and went to the kitchen to see if he could help.
qiao zhichu was busy preparing a fish. he was used to carving with a knife, so he used it to cut open the fishâs stomach. he was still holding the knife, and his actions were clean and neat.
there was no room for mistakes in carving, so he was quick, ruthless, and accurate.
he was not like a chef, but a butcher who wanted to slaughter fish.
the qiao familyâs courtyard was one of the older courtyards. during festivals, people would send live chickens and ducks. he had seen qiao zhichu kill chickens with his own eyes. he was a completely expressionless â slaughter â machine.
however, fu qinyuan had also seen that when he first started to learn carving, he was not allowed to chisel jade with his hands. moreover, with the strength of a child, his wrists were weak and he was not allowed to caress the jade, so he started to learn carving ...
she hugged a big water radish all day.
â carve it, â qiao xiyan said directly. â you can eat the rest of the materials. â
â......â
there was a period of time when âcarrot meetingsâ were held at the dining table in the qiao family.
âyou gave the go jar to that kid?â fu qinyuan scoffed.
âyes.â qiao zhichu thought of the rabbit on chen wangâs table and was suddenly amused. that was obviously something that girls liked. this kid couldnât be in love, could he?
âhow did granduncle know his master?â fu qinyuan had never known that qiao wangbei knew people from the go circle.
â every day, grandpa would go out for breakfast and watch people play chess in the small park. occasionally, he would play a few games when he was itchy. he probably met them then, and they would play chess and drink tea together all day. â at qiao wangbeiâs age, he only wanted to play with his grandchildren. he couldnât be like before, staying up all night.
â speaking of which, chen wang is quite fun to play with. he has been learning chess from his master. iâve known him for two to three years, but iâm not too familiar with him. â
â as you can see, that kid was fair and clean, even better looking when he was young. he was just like a little girl, and he came from abroad. everyone thought that he was from a rich family, so a hooligan blocked him in an alley and asked for protection money. guess what ... â
âwhat?â fu qinyuan was also curious.
âhe picked up a stick from the side and directly beat the man away. the stick was broken! iâm dumbfounded. this kid is overbearing and strong to the bone.â qiao zhichu scoffed.
â it was also at that time that i felt that he was a man. that was why i interacted more with him. â
fu qinyuan pursed his lips. he had played a few games with chen wang and could tell that he was not as gentle and harmless as he looked.
âwhy do i feel like youâre very curious about him?â qiao zhichu scoffed. â you pretended not to know him last time? â
âiâm not pretending, i really canât remember.â a certain someone said with certainty.
fu qinyuan just wanted to know more about him. it would be easier to deal with him if he knew himself and his enemy. he couldnât always be defeated.
qiao zhichu: â iâll believe your nonsense. â

on the other side.
the train heading to the west was shaking. every time it stopped, it was noisy. fu yu was in a daze. when she woke up again, she was awakened by the vibration of her mobile phone.
â hello, mom! â the berth of the train was extremely narrow. she carefully turned over and turned her head to see that huaisheng was still sitting on the opposite lower berth. he was not reading a book, but staring out the window.
âyou didnât even reply to my messages? are you alright?â
âitâs good,â
......
as fu yu was talking, the train suddenly passed through a tunnel, and the mobile phone lost signal in an instant. a few seconds later, when the light filled the car again, huaisheng was looking at her seriously. â itâs just a tunnel, itâs okay. â
âyes.â
fu yu was one of the bigger ones among fu qinyuan and the others, and she played the role of an adult. she felt a little uncomfortable being suddenly taken care of by someone.
