Chapter 131: The chess game: The clothes are like the wind in the moon
Because they needed to set aside a piece of land to build a training room for Ji Mingxue, the two people and the deer quickly returned to the small building and made some careful plans.
After finalizing the specific location, Ji Mingxue contacted his subordinates to prepare building materials and construction robots, and construction could begin as early as tonight.
After the problem in the training room was solved, Ji Mingxue remembered the gift his father asked him to bring to Shen Qingzhu. He hurriedly pulled Shen Qingzhu to the kitchen, opened the space button, and took out piles of ingredients.
Shen Qingzhu was amused by what he saw. He picked up a huge ham and examined it carefully. He could tell at a glance that it was top-quality stuff.
"Why did your uncle let you bring these here?"
Seeing Ji Mingxue still taking out all kinds of things, Shen Qingzhu checked what they were and thought about how to eat them. He also put together the ingredients that he would not eat for the time being and prepared to put them in the storage room later.
Ji Mingxue smiled after hearing this, with a rare bit of embarrassment on her face, "I often send my dad the dishes you cook, so he has always known that you are a good cook."
Shen Qingzhu looked at him with a smile, "It can be seen that you and your father have a very good relationship."
Ji Mingxue nodded.
Shen Qingzhu was a little curious, "Then uncle, do you have any objection to our relationship?"
Ji Mingxue blinked, "Why do you object?"
"You are so beautiful, so gentle, and so kind. You also have a smart brain and a high genetic level. From any angle, you are perfect. Even if my dad wants to find fault with you, he won't be able to find any, right?"
Shen Qingzhu coughed lightly, but did not deny it presumptuously. Only the tip of his ears turned red. He said matter-of-factly, "But I am from a commoner family, and the wealth and resources I have are completely incomparable to the Ji family. I am also an Alpha. Aren't these uncles worried?"
This is not self-humiliation or belittlement. Although Shen Qingzhu himself does not care about this, it is indeed an issue that most Omegas' relatives will seriously consider.
Although Shen Qingzhu is the only 3S-level Alpha in the empire, Ji Mingxue is also the only 3S-level Omega in the empire. As long as Ji Mingxue wants, he can choose any high-level Alpha in the empire.
And also background.
As far as Shen Qingzhu knows, what many powerful people in the empire fear most is class demotion. Because of this, Omegas from such families will mostly only choose people of the same class or above when they are in love or choosing a spouse, and downward mobility is strictly prohibited.
Because once an Omega is marked for life by an Alpha, it is almost impossible to completely get rid of that Alpha.
In addition, there are so many Alphas who want to enter the upper class through these Omegas that it is difficult to guard against them. Therefore, many Omegas from wealthy families are actually strictly taught by their families not to let Alphas get close to them easily, for fear that they will be confused and deceived by Alphas from humble backgrounds.
This is an objective fact.
Shen Qingzhu had seen OAs forcibly separated by their families more than once before, so he was very curious, did Ji Mingxue's father really not mind his commoner background?
Ji Mingxue recalled, "I've never heard my father mention these things."
Shen Qingzhu now knew his identity as the crown prince, so Ji Mingxue was less hesitant when speaking, "You should know that my father had a very bad marriage before."
"That person's family background is high enough, right? But what's the use of that?"
Thinking of the disgusting things that the man on the throne had done, Ji Mingxue's face was full of undisguised disgust and disgust. He quickly skipped over this paragraph and continued, "As for wealth and resources, no family in the entire empire can compare to the Ji family, and the Ji family does not need to rely on marriage to consolidate its strength, so I have never heard of anyone in the family getting married because of this love."
"As for your Alpha identity," Ji Mingxue suddenly smiled when she said this, "My father actually mentioned this."
"Because of the physiological characteristics of Omega, my dad was really worried about me when he first found out we were together."
After saying that, seeing Shen Qingzhu still looking at him with a little curiosity, Ji Mingxue suddenly raised the corners of his lips and whispered, "So he told me to always carry a small umbrella with me, just in case."
“Ahem…” Shen Qingzhu had never expected to hear this, and his face immediately turned red. However, he still upheld his instinct as a doctor, suppressed his embarrassment, and said to Ji Mingxue seriously, “Uncle’s instructions are right.”
Ji Mingxue couldn't help but roll her eyes. "I think my dad is just worrying too much. After all, we haven't really used it yet."
Shen Qingzhu: ...
Shen Qingzhu couldn't respond to this.
In the end, I could only take the sorted ingredients to the storage room and put them away.
Seeing this, Ji Mingxue also followed with a smile and stayed with Shen Qingzhu in the dim storage room for a long time.
"You don't have to worry about that at all," Ji Mingxue said with a chuckle as she admired Shen Qingzhu's smooth tea art as they walked out of the storage room in disheveled clothes and sat in the tea room to catch their breath. "Didn't I tell you that my dad and your father are good friends?"
This time Shen Qingzhu was really a little surprised.
After pushing the brewed tea in front of Ji Mingxue, Shen Qingzhu quickly heard Ji Mingxue say, "My father has been trying to find out where you are these years. Before I went to the Academy Star, he asked me to keep an eye out for any boys who look like you on the Academy Star."
"Tell me to take good care of you if we meet."
Shen Qingzhu looked at him in surprise, "So, you recognized me when we first met?"
After saying that, Shen Qingzhu also recalled the scene when he first met Ji Mingxue.
Thinking of Ji Mingxue's strange and defensive look at that time, Shen Qingzhu affirmed, "No, you didn't recognize me as Shen Qingzhu at that time."
Ji Mingxue also recalled what happened at that time and laughed, "I was in a fever due to the drugs. I was very irritable and was waiting for the person who drugged me to jump out so that I could vent."
Just as Ji Mingxue said this, she saw Shen Qingzhu frowning slightly, and quickly added, "It's a purely physical release, beating someone so hard that they can't take care of themselves."
Shen Qingzhu: ...
This isn't a good thing, is it? In such a dangerous situation, shouldn't you put your own safety first?
Just when I was about to discuss this issue with Ji Mingxue, Ji Mingxue suddenly said, "In the end, instead of waiting for the culprit, we waited for such a good-looking 'Dragon Lord'."
At this point, Ji Mingxue immediately moved from the opposite side to Shen Qingzhu, hugged Shen Qingzhu's arm, and whispered to him, "I really like your appearance as 'Dragon Lord'. I even dreamed about it. Can you dress up like that for me some other day?"
Shen Qingzhu: ...
His heart warmed up when he was looked at by Ji Mingxue's bright and shining eyes. Although he was very curious about what Ji Mingxue had dreamed about, Shen Qingzhu's intuition told him that it was better not to know.
Shen Qingzhu tapped Ji Mingxue's forehead with his finger and smiled slightly, "I'll think about it."
But that's not what they said at the beginning, right?
But it’s Ji Mingxue’s father.
Ji Mingxue obviously remembered this as well. She leaned on Shen Qingzhu's shoulder and smiled, "Anyway, my father really likes you. Before I came to the Imperial University, he even told me to find a noble husband to take back with me."
"He seemed very worried that I would close my heart and love and end up alone."
"He might be very happy after we started dating."
Shen Qingzhu smiled and touched his head.
I didn't believe everything Ji Mingxue said.
Because it was really hard for him to imagine that an Omega who had suffered great harm from an Alpha would be so confident in his Omega child dating an Alpha.
Even though that Alpha was his friend's child.
However, it should be true that Ji Mingxue's father does not object to their relationship.
From the gifts he asked Ji Mingxue to bring, Shen Qingzhu could tell that the other party was a very considerate elder.
"Thank uncle for me."
Shen Qingzhu kissed Ji Mingxue's forehead lightly.
Ji Mingxue took the opportunity to hook her arms around his neck and exchanged a passionate kiss with Shen Qingzhu.
It was not until the two of them almost had a fight that he smiled and leaned on Shen Qingzhu's shoulder, saying "Okay" with an unsteady breath.
…
Three days later, Ji Mingxue's training room was finally completed.
After that, Ji Mingxue often stayed in the underground training room, as if to make up for the progress he had missed in the previous few days.
While he was training, Shen Qingzhu was not idle either.
Since he came here, Shen Qingzhu has been busy either escaping or doing research, and has had little time to pick up his hobbies.
Now he finally returned to his own territory, and everything around him was the way Shen Qingzhu liked it the most. Shen Qingzhu then picked up all the music, chess, calligraphy and painting that he had learned before.
Because of this, every time Ji Mingxue came back from the training ground, she would always see a different Shen Qingzhu——
Sometimes he played the piano and sometimes he wrote with ink.
Or he might sit by the window, chess piece in hand, his clothes swaying in the wind like a figure in the moon.
Ji Mingxue couldn't help but be stunned every time she saw it, and she would scream "Ahhhh" wildly in her heart while taking 360 degrees crazily!
When she couldn't hold it in any longer, Ji Mingxue went to Xingbo's trumpet and beat her chest and stamped her feet.
[Love diary with little Alpha:
—Day101—
Ya! It’s really too Ya!!
How can there be such an elegant and good-looking Alpha in the world!!!
Thank you for taking decisive action!!!
I will never get tired of looking at this face!!!
(The mecha man holds his face and screams)
(The mecha figurine explodes into fireworks)
Bobobobo=333=! ! !】
Then, when Shen Qingzhu looked over, he tried hard to suppress his surging emotions and happily moved closer to her.
…
Ji Mingxue has developed a new hobby these days, which is playing chess with Shen Qingzhu.
Go is an ancient chess game that few people play nowadays.
The rules alone would put many people off.
However, because this is a very important part of ancient Chinese culture, and the Leman Empire highly respects ancient culture, many nobles would learn it for the sake of pretense.
As the crown prince, Ji Mingxue naturally learned Go since he was a child.
Ji Mingxue was actually very active when she was a child, but since her father divorced the emperor, Ji Mingxue often used Go to calm herself down.
Especially when he discovered that this square chessboard could actually be like a battlefield filled with smoke and gunpowder, and the tactics could be varied.
After that, Ji Mingxue became completely interested in Go and is now considered an expert player.
Because of this, when Ji Mingxue saw Shen Qingzhu playing chess for the first time, he was already eager to try.
Although he didn't know how good Shen Qingzhu was at chess, Ji Mingxue still excitedly invited Shen Qingzhu to play a game.
After that, it was out of control and I had to drag Shen Qingzhu to play a few games every day.
It is said that "the style of chess reflects the person". The way a person plays chess is determined by his personality.
Just like Ji Mingxue, he always has an indomitable spirit when playing chess, and the black chess pieces he holds always seem like thousands of troops, with great movements and close movements.
Shen Qingzhu is completely different from him.
A gentle person even plays chess in a gentle way.
He always makes his moves slowly and calmly, like a gentle spring breeze, without a trace of aggression.
But Ji Mingxue discovered that Shen Qingzhu's white pieces always landed in unexpected positions.
He seems to be non-competitive and always allows the black pieces to capture the city, but he can always turn the situation around at the critical moment and decide the outcome with a single move.
Seeing that large black pieces on the chessboard were picked up by Shen Qingzhu again, Ji Mingxue suddenly felt a little dazed.
Ji Mingxue was actually very curious about how Shen Qingzhu had mastered such superb chess skills.
Even though Shen Qingzhu's father O loved ancient Chinese culture very much, Shen Qingzhu was separated from his parents when he was 6 years old. He lived cautiously for the next decade or so. It was only after he entered the Imperial University a few months ago that he really began to shine.
When did Shen Qingzhu become proficient in the arts of music, chess, calligraphy and painting?
No matter how talented you are, it's impossible to learn these before the age of 6, right?
But at the same time, Ji Mingxue found it hard to imagine that these were what he learned through the Star Network when he was in C-07.
Although this is not completely impossible, Ji Mingxue still feels that something is wrong.
Ji Mingxue had discovered this kind of incongruity in Shen Qingzhu more than once.
Shen Qingzhu didn't seem to have any intention of hiding anything. Instead, it was like an inexhaustible treasure. Who knows, one day he would come up with a new skill that would amaze Ji Mingxue.
"clatter."
With the sound of a crisp falling piece, Ji Mingxue suddenly heard Shen Qingzhu's gentle voice with a hint of smile, "You lose."
Ji Mingxue: ...
He immediately lowered his eyes and quickly confirmed that his situation was indeed hopeless.
Ji Mingxue couldn't help but laugh, "Sure enough, when playing chess with you, I really can't let my mind wander at all."
Shen Qingzhu didn't ask him what he was thinking just now. He just smiled and picked up the eaten black pieces one by one into the chess pot.
…
As the New Year approaches, Shen Qingzhu has made many small things that will be used during the New Year in the past few days, such as red spring couplets, window decorations, lanterns, peace knots, etc.
These things are sold online, but Shen Qingzhu still likes to make them himself, because that's what his father and father used to do, and he said that this way there is a sense of ritual.
When he said this, his expression was calm and gentle. Ji Mingxue looked at him and subconsciously asked the question that had been buried in her heart for many days, "I thought you would be sad after returning here."
After he finished speaking, Ji Mingxue stared at Shen Qingzhu without blinking.
The reason why he dared to ask this was naturally because, through observation during this period of time, Ji Mingxue discovered that Shen Qingzhu was not shy about mentioning his parents. Instead, he would often take the initiative to tell Ji Mingxue about his fathers.
For example, Shen Qingzhu once told him that the reason why Bai, the butler of the Shen family, was in the form of a elk was because if he was a human-shaped butler, his father A would be jealous.
As he said this, Shen Qingzhu smiled and waved to Bai who was passing by the window.
Therefore, Ji Mingxue was very sure that Shen Qingzhu was not really sad about revisiting the old place, nor was she forcing herself to smile.
Shen Qingzhu smiled slightly after hearing this, and looked up at Ji Mingxue, "So this is why you have been peeking at me these days?"
Ji Mingxue: ...
"How can that be called peeking? You are my legitimate boyfriend, and I was looking openly!"
Shen Qingzhu was amused by him. He dipped the tip of the pen into ink and tapped Ji Mingxue's nose lightly. After tapping, Ji Mingxue immediately sat up and popped up a virtual mirror to check the ink on her face. Shen Qingzhu then said in a gentle voice, "If you talk about this period of time, then I am indeed not sad."
"My saddest time was when I just lost them."
"But I was too young at the time, and the situation didn't allow me to dwell on it for too long, so when I was a kid, I never had the chance to be sad."
His voice was very gentle and his eyes were calm, but Ji Mingxue suddenly felt depressed and immediately ran over to hug Shen Qingzhu.
Ji Mingxue was always warm, just like him, like a passionate little sun.
Shen Qingzhu held him on his lap and said as he painted the fan, "There were indeed many times when I was helpless when I was a child," especially when the bamboo shoots were taken away, "but fortunately, my fathers gave me a smart brain."
"They also taught me a lot and gave me a lot of love."
"Perhaps because of this, I have grown into the person you see today."
Ji Mingxue raised her head and kissed his chin, "You are indeed excellent. If the uncles could see this, they would be very happy."
Shen Qingzhu responded softly, "Actually, they saw it."
Ji Mingxue: “Hmm?”
Shen Qingzhu touched his head. "My father A is an expert in artificial intelligence. Long before I was born, fathers began to train companion AI based on themselves."
"My fathers said they would always leave many steps ahead of me, but they were worried that I would feel lonely and sad, so they made preparations in advance."
"So actually, whenever I want, as long as I come back here, I can see 'them' anytime."
Ji Mingxue blinked.
This kind of companion AI, which is trained in advance by deceased people, is actually not uncommon nowadays.
Seeing that Shen Qingzhu's face was still gentle and not sad at all, Ji Mingxue asked curiously, "Where are the 'uncles'? I have been here for so many days and have never seen 'them'."
Shen Qingzhu smiled, "Aren't you afraid?"
Even though this technology is now very mature, there are still many people who cannot accept it and even feel scared.
Because of this, Shen Qingzhu always deliberately avoided Ji Mingxue when he saw his fathers' smart projections these days.
Ji Mingxue was actually very curious about Shen Qingzhu's fathers.
I really want to meet them too.
Especially, "'They' are your most loving relatives in this world, and I am your most beloved lover in this world, how could I be afraid?"
This time, when Shen Qingzhu heard Ji Mingxue's love words, he was no longer embarrassed.
He just kissed Ji Mingxue's forehead gently and said "Okay" in a soft voice.
