"The one wearing the chef's uniform just now, is that the boss's...mother?"

Qiu Shui asked Lou Yuchen with a smack of surprise, if he hadn't restrained himself and managed his expression, he would probably look stupid at this moment.

As if Lou Yuchen had already expected Qiu Shui to ask this, he looked at Qiu Shui with his peach blossom eyes and asked, "Surprised? I remember that same-sex marriage was legal in China three years ago."

Qiu Shui knew that Lou Yuchen had misunderstood, and quickly explained: "That's not what I meant. What I meant was that I was just overwhelmed by the boss's... mother's aura."

Qiu Shui really doesn't discriminate against homosexuals, after all, he is one himself.

He was surprised because what Xu Qing had done just now was too shocking.

The man holding the kitchen knife looked like a bloody general who had just returned from the battlefield. That momentum, that look. Full of murderous intent.

Didn’t you see that the two foreigners and the people present were all shocked?

Qiu Shui lowered his voice and asked Lou Yuchen, "Speaking of which, if he is so fierce, why is the business here still so good?"

When others were mentioned, even Qiu Shui felt uneasy when he saw the bloody kitchen knife.

I came here once, and after seeing the boss lady's attitude, I guess I won't come again next time.

But look at those people, they are all scared to death of the boss lady, and when the boss lady asks them to sit down, they sit down like good kids.

Qiu Shui finally understood why the store was so quiet.

It turns out it’s not that they have high quality, but that they are afraid of the boss’s wife!

In a situation like this, after it happens once, these people should not come again.

After all, eating a meal here is thrilling and nerve-wracking.

But look at what happened just now. When they came in, they still needed Lou Yuchen to make an appointment in advance.

That proves that this private restaurant is doing very well.

So, what is the secret of this private restaurant?

"You'll know in a moment." Lou Yuchen didn't say anything, but made a sign language, which made Qiu Shui even more curious.

Soon, five minutes passed.

A handsome man in his thirties walked in hurriedly.

When the receptionist saw the man, she immediately stood up and said, "Boss, you're back."

Bobby and Edward, who were sitting at the door, saw the man and instantly stood up as if they were relieved.

Bobby seemed to have forgotten the residual power of Xu Qing just now, and asked with a dissatisfied look: "Yu Shiyuan, you are late."

Yu Shiyuan nodded to the lady at the front desk, then slowly turned around, glanced at the watch on his hand, and said, "There are still six minutes until the time we agreed to meet. I'm not late. You guys arrived early."

Of course Bobby knew that Yu Shiyuan was not late, but he felt aggrieved because he had just been criticized by everyone and was frightened by Xu Qing.

That's why he wanted to vent his anger on Shi Yuan.

Bobby snorted, "Stop talking nonsense and get started."

"Wait a moment, I want to say hello to my partner." After saying that, Yu Shiyuan ignored Bobby's incredulous look and walked straight into the kitchen. He came out after saying hello to Xu Qing.

At this time, there was only one table in the hall, near the window, which was still empty.

When Yu Shiyuan entered the kitchen, the receptionist had already neatly set up the chessboard on the table.

Seeing Yu Shiyuan coming back, people at other tables greeted him one after another.

Yu Shiyuan nodded in response one by one.

"Is that the owner of this store?" Qiu Shui, who was in the corner, saw the customers greeting Yu Shiyuan and asked curiously, "Those people seem to know him."

After Lou Yuchen glanced at Yu Shiyuan, he picked up the teapot again and added tea to Qiu Shui, saying, "Most of the people who come here to eat are regular customers or friends of the boss."

Qiu Shui suddenly realized, no wonder so many people came to eat.

The boss even greets the boss’s wife when he comes back. It seems like they are truly in love!

After seeing Yu Shiyuan and Bobby sit down, everyone around them gathered around.

"What level of professionalism is the boss?" Qiu Shui asked Lou Yuchen.

Lou Yuchen replied: "Professional 6th dan."

Professional sixth dan? That rank is not low!

Judging from the boss's appearance, he is only about 30 years old, still so young.

"Where is that foreigner?" Qiu Shui asked again.

Lou Yuchen said: "I don't know."

Qiu Shui blinked, "You don't know him?"

Lou Yuchen put down the teapot and said, "I only know people who have played chess with me. Their rank is too low and they can't play against me."

Qiu Shui: “…”

What kind of Versailles is this?

Doesn't this mean that the two foreigners' ranks are too low and they are not even qualified to play against him? That's why he didn't know him.

Qiu Shui only now realized that Lou Yuchen's words were so Versailles.

But what he said was true. Those who can play against him are basically big guys.

Looking back, they saw that except for the two of them, almost everyone had gathered around to watch the chess game.

Qiu Shui couldn't help but say to Lou Yuchen, "The food hasn't been served yet, should we go take a look?"

Apart from Lou Yuchen, Qiu Shui has only seen one professional chess player play chess. That’s Fang Wen’s (the one on the Internet doesn’t count because Qiu Shui doesn’t know about it).

Hearing Qiu Shui's words, Lou Yuchen looked up and said, "Okay."

Then he stood up, Qiu Shui also stood up, and they walked over together.

Although there were quite a few people around, everyone was very conscious and stood in staggered positions. So that people behind can also see the two people playing chess clearly.

After Qiu Shui and Lou Yuchen walked over, they stood on the periphery and were able to clearly see Yu Shiyuan and Bobby playing chess.

At this point, the two had already made several moves.

Yu Shiyuan is a professional sixth dan. Lou Yuchen didn’t know Poppy’s rank, so Qiu Shui guessed that Poppy’s rank should be lower than Yu Shiyuan’s.

However, watching the two people playing chess, Qiu Shui felt that the gap between them did not seem that big.

Both of them played very quickly, and at the beginning, Yu Shiyuan had the upper hand.

But gradually, when it came to about forty moves, the situation became a little subtle.

Qiu Shui couldn't help but frown.

He discovered something very strange: Yu Shiyuan's chess moves looked very stiff.

Although Qiu Shui had only played chess with Fang Wen, a professional chess player, the competition lasted for so many days. He has also encountered contestants with good chess skills.

Although the chess skills of those contestants vary, none of them are as awkward as Yu Shiyuan when playing chess.

At this moment, Yu Shiyuan looked a bit like when he integrated the Master Card and played Go online for the first time.

Qiu Shui couldn't help but glance at Lou Yuchen who was standing next to him, only to see that Lou Yuchen was just watching quietly with no expression on his face.

After Bobby, who was sitting opposite Yu Shiyuan, placed a black piece, he could not help but sneer at Shiyuan: "Is this the chess ability of a Chinese professional 6th dan player?"

Yu Shiyuan didn't say anything, he just picked up a white piece and placed it on the chessboard.

At this time, he pursed his lips, and although he didn't frown, it could be seen from his eyes. He was also a little distressed at this time.

Bobby was getting more and more proud as he played. "Haha, you're a professional 6th dan. The chess you play is just so-so. As expected, except for Lou, everything else in your Guohua is garbage."

Before Yu Shiyuan could say anything, the people around him couldn't listen any more.

"What the hell, this game has only just begun, why are you so proud?"

"That's right. It's only just begun, and you're already so proud of yourself. It's not over yet, and the outcome is still uncertain. But you're already starting to feel complacent and elated."

"You really thought you won? Let me see how you lose later."

…

Faced with the sarcastic remarks from the onlookers, Bobby didn't care at all, instead he became even more arrogant.

"Lose? Based on the current situation, I will definitely win. You Chinese chess players are just pretending. You are all trash."

"Poppy." Edward strongly disagreed with his friend saying such a thing.

However, Bobby completely ignored him. Instead, he raised his chin towards Yu Shiyuan provocatively, "If I lose, I will kneel down and apologize to you as you just said."

"Really?" Yu Shiyuan, who had been at a disadvantage, suddenly changed his attitude after hearing Bobby's words.

He picked up a white piece and looked at Bobby with sharp eyes, "Then please do as you say."

“Pah…”

The moment the white piece fell, the situation suddenly began to change.

The awkwardness that Yu Shiyuan felt when playing chess just now completely disappeared. The chess piece that Yu Shiyuan was originally at a disadvantage with suddenly turned into a long sword that was unsheathed and began to gradually sweep across the chessboard.

Bobby's smug smile froze on his face.

That one white piece seemed to have turned the tide. Yu Shiyuan's moves became more and more aggressive, and Poppy was defeated step by step, until he had nowhere to retreat.

"You lose." When Yu Shiyuan's white piece fell, the outcome was decided.

"How could that be?"

Bobby couldn't believe that he actually lost.

He suddenly understood something.

He clenched his fists, slammed the table, and stood up, "Are you kidding me?"

It was obvious that Yu Shiyuan's move at the beginning was intentional. He was deliberately using bad moves to lure him into the trap.

Then, before he could react, he was caught in one fell swoop.

This was a huge humiliation for Bobby.

Yu Shiyuan said calmly, "If you lose, you lose. I hope you can do what you said just now, kneel down and apologize."

"Apologize? Why should I apologize? You are a professional 6th dan and you beat me, a professional 2nd dan. What's there to be proud of? You can ask me to apologize, but you have to play another game with me."

"Bobby, shut up." Edward didn't expect that his good friend would cheat after losing the game.

But Bobby yelled directly at Edward, "Edward, you're the one who shuts up. This is my business, and it has nothing to do with you."

At this time, Bobby was so angry and lost his mind because of Yu Shiyuan's humiliation.

With an angry look on his face, he said to Shi Yuan, "If I lose the next round, I will immediately kneel down and apologize to you. I will kowtow and apologize. This time, I will keep my word."

Yu Shiyuan said coldly: "Okay."

Bobby smiled and said, "I don't want to play with you. I want to play with all the Chinese people present except you."

Yu Shiyuan was stunned, and so were the people around him.

"You want to play against a bunch of amateur chess players?" Yu Shiyuan didn't expect that Bobby, a professional chess player, would say such shameless words.

Seeing Yu Shiyuan's stunned look and the surprised looks on the faces of the people around him, Bobby seemed to have regained his confidence.

He raised his chin, "Yes, do you dare to agree?"
