"No! Grandma, I didn't cheat. I won that round." With Baili Xiyao by his side, He Mozhao regained his confidence.
"Okay, okay, you win, but do you have to admit defeat in this round, Zhao Zhao?" As she spoke, Old Lady He had already picked up a new white slip and handed it to He Mozhao, but it was blocked by Baili Xiyao.
"Grandma, this game of chess is a draw, right? It's not that your chess skills are bad, it's just that I disturbed your mind and interrupted your thoughts. Otherwise, I believe you can definitely win this game."
You are really good at telling lies with your eyes open...
Old Mrs. He complained in her heart, but didn't care and just smiled without saying anything.
He Mozhao felt embarrassed. He tugged at the corner of Baili Xiyao's suit with his hand under the table and glanced at Baili Xiyao through his pale face.
Unfortunately, Baili Xiyao didn't want to agree to He Mozhao's wish to end the game. "Grandma, I think this checkers game is quite interesting. Next, how about I play a few games with you instead of my dear?"
Huh? Is this a revenge for Zhao Zhao?
This girl really doesn't admit defeat at all...
"Okay," Old Lady He thought to herself: Zhao Zhao is such a bad chess player, I guess Miss Yao won't be much better either. After all, I have never heard that this girl has learned checkers.
Old Mrs. He, who was hoping for luck, finally lost her kind smile when she lost ten games in a row in a short period of time.
On the other hand, He Mozhao was so happy to see Baili Xiyao winning all the time that his eyes and brows were blooming with smiles.
"No more, no more. You girl, you are here just to support Zhao Zhao." Old Lady He brushed away the white stripes on her face and glared at Baili Xiyao angrily.
"Oh~ What a pity! With a few more moves, we could win another game," Baili Xiyao looked at He Mozhao with regret.
This boastful tone made He Mozhao laugh uncontrollably, and he fell directly into Baili Xiyao's arms. The warm air sprayed on his neck with He Mozhao's breathing, and a hint of darkness flashed across Baili Xiyao's eyes.
Baili Xiyao silently placed the tip of his tongue against his upper back teeth, chanting a heart-clearing mantra in his mind to suppress his amorous thoughts.
"Yao girl, grandma has watched you grow up, how come I have never heard that you learned to play chess?" As she said this, Old Lady He looked helplessly at her grandson who was laughing heartlessly.
"Grandma, it's true that I haven't studied chess properly, so I'm not very good at it, but this game of checkers is even simpler than Gobang. If I lose, where will I put my dignity as an old immortal who has lived for hundreds of thousands of years?
Okay, I was insulted.
Old Lady He finally understood that she might not like some people or use some skills, but that didn't mean she couldn't...
"Okay, kid, stop laughing. Don't you see who just lost so many games?" Old Lady He glared at He Mozhao, who was leaning on Baili Xiyao's shoulder, laughing so hard that his cheeks were sore, and rubbing his face while laughing.
Baili Xiyao was about to raise his hand to rub He Mozhao's face when he heard what Old Lady He said. He immediately retorted, "Wasn't it Grandma who just lost so many games?"
"...", is this girl's memory already confused because of her protection? Is she killing people randomly? Am I talking about the few rounds I just lost? I'm clearly talking about the few rounds that the cheating guy in your arms lost before you showed up!
No, if I give in like this, I, an old woman, will lose face!
Thinking of this, Old Lady He rolled her eyes, removed the white stripes on her face, and smiled at Baili Xiyao: "Since Miss Yao is here to help Zhao Zhao in the game, then for the sake of fairness, Grandma must also find a helper."
Hearing this, Baili Xiyao raised his eyebrows and agreed happily, "Okay."
So, Mr. He, who was fishing and chatting with his friends, was called back by Mrs. He.
only……
"No, you old man! Don't you brag about how good you are at chess every day? What's wrong with you? You've lost seven games in a row!"
Mrs. He's angry voice came from beside Mr. He.
Mr. He, who couldn't save his face, was in a state of confusion. His hands were shaking, and his eyes were fixed on the chessboard, trying hard to find a way to come back to life.
Yes, each of these seven games is a different game, and this eighth game is the chess game that Grandpa He guarantees will win.
But now it seems that we are 100% sure to lose.
This chess game made Old Lady He regret it. She thought the old man could win her back a game, but who knew...
"Lunch is ready, ma'am."
Aunt Li's voice was like the sound of nature at this moment, at least that's what Mr. He and Mrs. He thought.
"Let's play this game next time. Eating is more important." Old Man He clenched his fist and coughed in front of his mouth, looking guiltily at the calm Baili Xiyao.
"Baby, are you hungry?" Baili Xiyao tilted his head to look at He Mozhao. Seeing him nod, he turned back to meet Mr. He's eyes. "Okay, let's eat first."
Seeing the two interacting, Mr. He looked up at Mrs. He who had already stood up, and thought to himself: My wife hasn't been so kind to me in years. It's better to be young.
Feeling jealous, Mr. He suddenly grabbed Mrs. He's hand, and without saying a word, he took Mrs. He's hand and left the yard and walked towards the restaurant.
The old lady He who was being led was puzzled and thought to herself: What is wrong with this old man?
"Happy?"
Baili Xiyao held He Mozhao's hand and slowly followed behind Old Man He and Old Lady He. He only spoke when they were about ten steps away from each other.
"Well! I've never won a game of chess, but I'm so happy today." It seemed as if even her hair was strung with that happiness, dancing in the warm winter sun and breeze.
