The moment their fingers touched, Jiang Li and Chu Huaizhi raised their heads at the same time, and each other's faces were reflected in their pupils for an instant.

The two looked at each other quietly, neither of them looking away.

If he had stared at Jiang Li like this before, Chu Huaizhi would definitely have looked away first and put some distance between them.

But it's different now.

After the explanation of Fusang dumplings dipped in vinegar, Chu Huaizhi roughly understood what he meant.

Although he and Fusang said different things last night, their final feelings were similar.

The feeling of jealousy is sour, and the person who is jealous feels uncomfortable all over.

Being stared at by his almond-shaped eyes, a hint of unnaturalness flashed across Jiang Li's face.

She coughed twice and let go of Chu Huaizhi's hand: "Well, uncle, it's still early now, and we still have a long way to go to the Foyan Temple. Let's play chess to kill time!"

After Jiang Li finished speaking, she sat up again with the chess tube in her hand and exchanged the chess tube with Chu Huaizhi's.

Chu Huaizhi picked up the last chess piece and placed it on the chessboard first.

Jiang Li placed the black piece in her hand next to Chu Huaizhi's white piece without hesitation, and the game between the two began.

Jiang Li's grandfather likes to play chess. Jiang Li followed him and learned from him. She got the true skills of the old man and now understands the art of chess.

Originally, she thought that even if she couldn't beat Chu Huaizhi, she could at least draw with him. However, after the situation on the chessboard unfolded, Jiang Li began to sweat profusely.

Looking for Chu Huaizhi to play chess is just asking for trouble!

How come I've never heard anyone mention Chu Huaizhi's superb chess skills? !

After one round, Jiang Li lost, and lost miserably!

Looking at the chess game in front of her, Jiang Li gritted her teeth and said, "Let's do it again!"

As she spoke, she put the chess pieces on the board into the chess tube, and then exchanged the white pieces she had just exchanged with Chu Huaizhi.

"I'll go first this time!"

After saying that, she placed the white chess piece in her hand at the position where Chu Huaizhi had just placed his piece.

Jiang Li is a bad player. After losing two games in a row, she became more and more courageous, playing one game after another. The originally awkward atmosphere in the car has now become a scene of fighting.

The palace servants following on both sides of the carriage could often hear noises coming from inside the carriage.

"Come again!"

"I don't believe in evil, let's play another round!"

"Uncle, you are a bully. You have won so many games, but you won't let me go even once?"

"Uncle, please, let me win just once! It's embarrassing to keep losing!"

As the words fell, a light laugh was heard.

"As you wish."

Chu Huaizhi watched Jiang Li's changing expressions with great interest. Although he had always been principled, he finally couldn't resist Jiang Li's nagging and gave in.

Under Chu Huaizhi's manipulation, Jiang Li finally won.

"Thank you for letting me."

Jiang Li smiled and bowed to Chu Huaizhi opposite her. She was angry just now, but now she was finally satisfied.

Seeing that the sun had already moved overhead, Eunuch Zhu asked someone to prepare some lunch.

After the meal, Chu Huaizhi sat at the desk reading a book, while Jiang Li sat on the seat with her legs stretched out, leaning against the sedan chair and taking a nap.

The wind was rustling outside the window and the sky was quickly getting dark.

The palace maids who were accompanying them squinted their eyes due to the wind and sand, and raised their sleeves to cover their faces to block the wind and sand.

Bang! Because the wind and sand were so strong that he couldn't open his eyes, the driver didn't notice the rocks in front of him for a moment, and the carriage suddenly shook violently! Jiang Li, who was taking a nap, shook her body and fell off the seat due to inertia! Plop——

The expected pain did not come, and Jiang Li's eyes slowly narrowed a little...
