When Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian returned, the two were already playing the second round.
Gu Nian was curious: where did they find this handsome little boy?
She looks about the same age as Xiao Jin!
It turned out that this guy was Huo Junhao, and Lu Zheng was actually playing chess with Huo Junhao.
He must have been angered by Huo Junhao in his past life, and he's here to take revenge in this life!
In the kitchen, Cai Xiaolian realized that Gu Nian probably knew the little boy, but since Grandma Gu was also there, Cai Xiaolian didn't ask any further questions.
After losing two out of three games, Huo Junhao did not play a third game.
He could still afford to lose, and called Lu Zheng "brother".
"Good boy! Remember, this is my second uncle. Even if you are in the same year of the exam, don't call him 'brother' or 'second uncle'. You have to call him 'second uncle' too, understand?" Lu Zheng patted Huo Junhao's head, feeling a sense of relief.
Haha, this kid is finally in my hands!
"Second Uncle Gu." Huo Junhao didn't seem to mind.
He felt very embarrassed. He could tell that his opponent's chess skills were far superior to his. Every time, the opponent deliberately made him feel that he was about to win, but at the crucial moment, the opponent turned the tide of the game in one move.
This person is only sixteen, four years older than me, how come they're so amazing?
Does this mean he'll have to relinquish the title of child prodigy?
No, no, no, he's twelve now. He can't be called a child anymore; he's a teenager. He's still a child prodigy, an invincible existence at twelve years old.
I'll definitely study my chess skills carefully when I get back. Oh, and that pair of pieces too. I'll try to beat him before I turn sixteen!
...
The Gu family invited Huo Junhao to stay for lunch. After they had lunch themselves, they handed the keys to Gu Lin and went home together.
They've been in the prefectural city for over ten days now, and to be honest, the three time-travelings really miss home.
Gu Xin was happy as long as her parents and sister were there. This time, not only were her parents and sister there, but her grandparents and Sisi were also there, which made her even happier.
It was already dark when I got home, but the lights in the second room were still on.
Gu Hui was practicing martial arts in the courtyard when she saw the family, and her joy was evident on her face.
"Sister Huihui, you're so happy to see me. Did you miss me a lot while I wasn't here? I told you to come with me, but you didn't. Now you know how it feels to miss me!" Gu Nian gave Gu Hui a big hug and said with a smile.
"I've thought about everyone, but it seems like I haven't thought about you," Gu Hui said calmly as she pushed her away.
"Never mind, it's okay if you admit it, Sister Huihui. I know it in my heart anyway!" Gu Nian said with a grin.
"Sister Huihui, I miss you so much!" Gu Xin said, holding Gu Hui's hand.
"Mmm." Gu Hui pinched Gu Xin's cheek. "Second Uncle, Second Aunt, you're both back now, so I'll head back too! You should get some rest!"
"No! Sister Huihui, sleep here tonight, I want to chat with you!" Gu Nian grabbed Gu Hui.
"What are you talking about? Aren't you tired from the car ride?" Gu Hui glanced at Gu Nian.
"Not tired at all, not tired at all. I'm so excited! I wanted to tell you this morning, but you weren't here! I was thinking on the way back that I would tell you the news as soon as I got back! Come on, let me go put my things down first, and we can chat slowly in a bit." Gu Nian pulled Gu Hui towards the main room.
Gu Hui glanced at the other three.
Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian smiled and shook their heads.
Gu Xin pursed her lips: "Sister Huihui, my sister has taken a liking to someone."
Gu Hui looked at Gu Nian in surprise, and Gu Nian nodded to her.
Gu Hui: Okay, if you have some gossip to hear, I'll reluctantly sleep with you for a while!
