Chapter 127 A game of chess explains everything



Chapter 127: Everything is explained in a chess game

After graduating from college, his family arranged a blind date for him, but his brother was not interested, so the matter was left unresolved.

Later, his brother was focused on his career, and sometimes he would respond to the blind dates arranged by his family, but when it came to marriage, his brother would shake his head and reject them.

So, until now, Huo Nanting has never seen his brother have a love affair.

Speaking of this, it is a bit surprising.

Huo Nanting thought about it and didn't think that Bo Sili's previous words were wrong.

"But... even if that's the case, you can't be so casual,

right?" Huo Nanting was still dissatisfied, "After all, you are going to spend your whole life together, how can you only consider benefits?"

"I didn't force your brother to marry Bo Jiao, I just asked him to consider it. Your brother naturally has his considerations. If you can get along, then get along. If you can't, then break up. It's such a simple thing."

"..."

Huo Nanting was speechless.

Several people arrived at the Huo family.

Bo Sili followed Yi Huan to pay a visit to Grandpa Huo first. Grandpa Huo played chess with him for half a day, and happily praised him for his superb chess skills and said he was a worthy opponent.

Bo Sili smiled and replied: "My grandfather also likes to play chess. When I was a child, I often played with him."

"No wonder."

Grandpa Huo touched his beard, and the more he looked at this grandson-in-law, the more he liked him.

"I seem to remember that your grandfather raised you?"

"Yes."

Old Master Huo nodded repeatedly, "Well, your grandfather was an amazing person."

It was a pity that he died young and left only one son.

At that time, the old man was in poor health and stayed on the sickbed for several years. The branches of the family were ready to move and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to get a piece of the pie.

Bo Yu also spent a lot of effort to deal with them before he survived.

So when it came to Bo Yu's generation, he attached great importance to his bloodline.

The two played chess until dinner time. Huo Qizhen also arrived at the old house. Seeing Bo Sili playing chess with the old man, he stood aside and watched for a while.

"Look, this kid is much better at chess than you."

Bo Sili made a beautiful move, which made the old man very happy. He smiled and pulled Huo Qizhen over, but he stood up.

"Come here, see if you can help me break the deadlock."

Huo Qizhen had a stern face, and although he was reluctant, he still sat down.

The servant came over to call for dinner, and the old man waved his hand and said to wait a moment.

Yi Huan also came over and sat down next to Bo Sili.

She also learned Go from the old man Yi when she was a child. Now it seems that Huo Qizhen is in great danger on the chessboard.

Huo Qizhen took a risk and placed a piece. He raised his eyes and looked at the young man opposite him fiercely.

Bo Sili raised the corner of his lips slightly and placed the piece slowly.

"Good, good."

Mr. Huo cheered, "Good boy, you have courage."

He patted Bo Sili on the back.

This move suddenly put Huo Qizhen in a dilemma.

Huo Qizhen frowned and rubbed the black pieces in his hand again and again, but there was no place to put them.

"Forget it, I give up."

Bo Sili smiled slightly and looked at him gently, "It's not the last step yet, it's too early to draw this conclusion."

Huo Qizhen frowned, "You have already made this move, where else can I move?"

"Anywhere is fine."

His face was still gentle and calm. He took the teacup beside him, bowed his head to blow the tea leaves, and drank a sip of tea leisurely.

Huo Qizhen looked at him in confusion, "What do you mean?"

What does it mean to move anywhere you want?

Can you play chess casually?

What's more, he has already lost.

"Father, please come in."

Bo Sili put down the teacup and made a "please" gesture. The word "father" made Huo Qizhen's face crack.

"What are you shouting? I haven't said I will marry my daughter to you."

"Dad..."

Yi Huan on the side frowned and held Bo Sili's arm tighter.

It was as if she had handed herself over a long time ago.

Huo Qizhen glanced at her and got angry.

Silly girl, marriage is a matter of two families, how can it be that simple.

"Huanhuan married me a long time ago."

"The person who married you is Yi Huan, not my daughter Huo Chenhuan."

Huo Qizhen said coldly.

Bo Sili's eyebrows changed slightly, and he was stunned for a while and then restrained his expression, his face was still warm.

"Yes, but it's a matter of time."

"Humph."

Huo Qizhen snorted coldly, what an arrogant guy.

His father's delay in coming to the Huo family to apologize clearly showed that he looked down on the Huo family and Yi Huan.

Even if he raised his daughter for the rest of her life, she could not go to a place where she would be looked down upon by her elders.

Huo Qizhen casually dropped the black piece in his hand on the chessboard, then turned and left.

Bo Sili's eyes dimmed, and he took out a white piece and dropped it.

"This...what is this?"

Old Master Huo couldn't understand.

But two seconds later, Old Master Huo laughed heartily, patted Bo Sili on the shoulder, his eyes full of admiration and appreciation.

"Well, your grandfather really raised you very well."

"Go, call the eldest master over."

The old man ordered the maid beside him.

Huo Qizhen had already walked far away, but was called back by the old man.

He had a sullen face and pulled unhappily, "Father, what else do you want to talk to me about?"

Old Master Huo smiled and pointed at the chessboard and said to him, "Take another good look at this game of chess."

Huo Qizhen didn't understand why, but he still looked down.

A few seconds later, his expression suddenly changed, and his eyes were filled with surprise.

Bo Sili blocked his way with one piece, putting him in a dilemma.

He used another piece to break the chessboard, leaving a very obvious loophole for Huo Qizhen.

As long as he placed a piece here in the next step, he could immediately turn the tables and win a chance of survival.

"What do you mean?"

Huo Qizhen looked at him steadily, with a complicated expression. Looking at that young face, he couldn't understand it.

Old Master Huo asked him to play chess with Bo Sili, naturally because he wanted to ease the relationship between the two of them.

However, Mr. Huo did not expect that Bo Sili had such a trick.

A game of chess explained everything.

"The white pieces had the upper hand in this game of chess. The last move was dangerous and forced the opponent into a desperate situation. It was right for you to stop, father. However, after I made this move, this game of chess is no longer a dead end."

As he said this, Bo Sili took a black piece from the chess box opposite and dropped it.

The black piece came back to life.

"Your move was too obvious. The black piece had already lost in the last move."

Huo Qizhen spoke coldly, but his eyebrows and eyes softened visibly.

"But I am the one playing chess. I am willing to let you win."

Huo Qizhen looked at him, his face fixed, and he did not speak for a long time.

"I have convinced my father. He will come to visit in person on the seventh day of the first lunar month."

Bo Sili said.

Huo Qizhen was stunned, as if he couldn't believe it.

Bo Yu was such a proud person, would he be willing to humble himself and apologize?
