Su Banxia half-knelt in front of the chessboard, one hand supporting her cheek, her palm warm from nervousness and shyness.

She subconsciously put her palm against her face. The heat was like a warm fire, burning the side of her face. An indescribable heat quickly spread throughout her body.

At this moment, a cool breeze blew in from outside the door, gently brushing her hair and cheeks.

However, this breeze could not dispel the heat in her body, nor could it blow away the lingering warmth in her heart caused by Lou Jiyun's approach.

"I beg you, can you teach me?" Lou Jiyun raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a gentle smile. That smile was like the warm spring sun, instantly melting the last line of defense in Su Banxia's heart.

Su Banxia was just joking with him and never expected that Lou Jiyun would actually beg her seriously.

At this moment, her mind involuntarily conjured up the image of the man before her. Normally, he wore a serious expression, rarely smiled, and exuded an awe-inspiring aura. But today, dressed in a crisp, three-piece suit, he exuded a mature, steady, and elite demeanor, his every move revealing elegance and confidence.

He suddenly asked for help in such a gentle tone. The strong contrast was like a gentle dagger that pierced Su Banxia's heart.

Anyway, Su Banxia was already feeling dizzy, her mind was blank, and she had no idea how to deal with the situation.

In a panic, she lowered her head, picked up a small snack, stuffed it into her mouth, and deliberately chewed it loudly. It seemed that only in this way could she calm her wildly beating heart and eliminate the panic in her heart.

"Is this a biscuit?" Lou Jiyun looked at Su Banxia's actions, a hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes, and asked softly.

"Well, my mom made it. It's quite delicious." Su Banxia answered vaguely, her cheeks slightly puffed up because of the snack in her mouth, and she looked very cute.

"Then let me try it." Lou Jiyun said, and his slender fingers gracefully picked up a piece of dessert and put it into his mouth.

He chewed it carefully, and after a few seconds, he nodded slightly and said softly, "It's quite sweet."

When Su Banxia heard these words, she inexplicably felt her ears getting hot, as if they were burning. She muttered to herself, this was obviously just a normal sentence, why did she feel so embarrassed when she heard it?

Su Banxia, ​​are you thinking too much... You must have thought in the wrong way, you are doomed now!

To mask her embarrassment, Su Banxia quickly shifted the topic to the chessboard. Taking a deep breath, she calmed herself down and pointed at the board, saying, "Well, don't make this move. You should make the Cannon. If you make the Pawn, you'll be in a very passive position later on."

Lou Jiyun also leaned forward slightly, moved closer to the chessboard, and followed the movements of Su Banxia's fingertips closely with his eyes. He listened carefully, nodded slightly from time to time, and a focused and thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

…

In this game, Su Liuxing deliberately let the opponent win from the very beginning, and with Su Banxia's careful guidance, although there were some bumps in the process, Lou Jiyun finally won the game.

"Finally I won." Su Liuxing had a hearty smile on his face, which was full of appreciation and encouragement for Lou Jiyun, as if to say that winning or losing is not important, what is important is to enjoy the process of playing chess.

"You gave in to me, and thanks to..." Lou Jiyun's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a humble smile. His eyes slowly turned to Su Banxia, ​​with gratitude and tenderness flashing in his eyes, "She helped."

"You girl, you are so mean. Help him deal with his dad." Su Liuxing said half-jokingly, the smile on his face became brighter, and his eyes were full of doting.

When Su Banxia heard this, her cheeks instantly became hot, as if they were burned by fire.

A trace of panic flashed in her eyes. She subconsciously lowered her head, twisting the corners of her clothes nervously with her hands, and whispered, "Dad, I... I just..."

"By the way, besides chess, do you like watching Go?" Lou Jiyun tilted his head slightly, his eyes never leaving Su Banxia. He asked Su Liuxing seemingly casually, but there was a hint of imperceptible expectation in his eyes.

"Go? I'm a complete layman here. I only have a vague understanding of it and have no interest in it." Su Liuxing said frankly. He waved his hand gently with an apologetic smile on his face. "Why, do you know anything about Go?"

"No, there's a chess player I know who's having a competition soon, and I thought if you're interested, I could give you tickets to watch the fun." Lou Jiyun explained patiently, his voice low and gentle.

"I'm really not interested in Go." Su Liuxing refused again with a smile. He sighed slightly and said helplessly, "If you don't know anything about playing Go, it will be boring."

As he spoke, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the uncontrollable excitement on Su Banxia's face. With an idea in mind, he said, "Xia Xia, if you're interested in going, you can go with your brother Lou to join in the fun."

"Me?" When Su Banxia heard her name, she suddenly raised her head, her eyes full of surprise and confusion.

Her mouth opened slightly, wanting to say something, but she was speechless for a moment. She knew in her heart that her understanding of Go was only at the level of black and white pieces, and she knew nothing else.

"Then I'll go back and get two tickets." Lou Jiyun said without hesitation.

Su Banxia opened her mouth and wanted to refuse, but the words were blocked in her throat by Lou Jiyun's decisive words.

Lou Jiyun looked at the time and knew he couldn't stay any longer, so he stood up and said goodbye.
