Upon hearing Xiao Xi'er's words, Qin Jue, who was holding a black chess piece, placed the piece on the chessboard.
After placing the chess pieces, Qin Jue collected three of Xiao Xi'er's white chess pieces.
"Ah—no, no, I haven't decided yet!"
Seeing that three of her pieces had been captured, Xiao Xi'er reached out to take back the pieces she had just placed.
Qin Jue grabbed his hand halfway out.
"Little Xi'er, you can't go back on your word!"
"Daddy~, just this once, please~"
"No! Xiaoxi'er, how many times have you said 'Just this once, the last time'?"
"Besides, Xiaoxi'er, your father just asked you, and you've already made up your mind, so you can't go back on your word."
"If someone promises to give Xiaoxi a treat, but then goes back on their word and doesn't give it to her, will Xiaoxi be angry?"
Little Xi thought for a moment, then her face showed anger. "I'm so angry! He lied to me, saying he'd give me something delicious, but he didn't."
"So, Xiao Xi'er changed her mind, and Father was very angry, or rather, anyone would have been very angry because Xiao Xi'er changed her mind."
Xiao Xi'er listened to Qin Jue's words without saying anything. After a while, she picked up all the white chess pieces.
"Then, Father, shall we try again?"
"Alright, let's see how many chess pieces Daddy will eat this time, little Xi'er."
"No way, it's me who ate Daddy's black chess piece!"
Little Xi pouted, holding her white chess piece, and said to Qin Jue...
After the father and daughter removed the chess pieces from the board, they started playing again.
Qin Jue, playing black, made the first move.
After Qin Jue finished his game, Xiao Xi'er watched where he placed his piece and then placed hers.
Qin Jue placed his black piece there, and Xiao Xi'er immediately placed hers there as well.
Before long, Xiao Xi'er captured five of Qin Jue's chess pieces.
Hehehe
After Xiao Xi'er ate five of Qin Jue's chess pieces, she smiled at Qin Jue, revealing rows of her pearly white baby teeth.
"Daddy~, look how many black seeds you've eaten~"
"Little Xi'er is amazing!"
Qin Jue picked up a piece of pastry and fed it to Xiao Xi'er, praising her. Seeing that Qin Jue had placed all the pastries in front of her, Xiao Xi'er took a bite.
"Awooo—"
"Hehe, thank you, Daddy~"
Qin Jue gently touched Xiao Xi'er's head with his hand that hadn't been withdrawn.
When Yu Ying arrived at the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he saw that Qin Jue had very few black pieces left on the chessboard.
The chessboard is covered with large groups of white pieces.
"Hey, Yansheng, you're not good at it! Look at you, you're not even as good at chess as my niece, are you, Xiaoxi'er?"
Hearing the voice, Xiao Xi looked up at Yu Ying, "Uncle Yu Yu!"
Just as Xiao Xi called out to Yu Ying, Qin Jue directly struck Yu Ying with a palm strike imbued with internal force.
Yu Ying jumped up and dodged, then sat down in Xiao Xi'er's seat, picked her up, and placed her on his lap.
Qin Jue was consumed by jealousy when he saw Xiao Xi'er being held in Yu Ying's arms, but since Xiao Xi'er was in Yu Ying's embrace, Qin Jue dared not make a move, fearing he might accidentally hurt her.
"Let go of your dog paws!!!"
"I won't let go, can't I even hug Xiaoxi'er?"
"Daddy, what are dog paws?"
Upon hearing Xiao Xi'er's words, Qin Jue glanced at Yu Ying, his eyes narrowing as he devised a plan.
Then Qin Jue looked at Xiao Xi'er with an extremely serious expression.
"Little Xi'er, do you want to know what a dog's paw is?"
Thinking and thinking
Holding Xiao Xi'er, Yu Ying saw the cold smile on Qin Jue's lips and knew it wasn't a nice thing to say; she hadn't expected it to actually be.
"These dog paws mean that a dog turned into a human who loved to hug children and then trick them into giving him treats."
"Doesn't this dog use its paws to grab food? The paw used to grab food is called a dog's paw, and dog paws are used to snatch food from children!!"
Upon hearing Qin Jue use the word "dog's paws," Yu Ying's lips and eyes twitched uncontrollably.
Little Xi'er understood what "dog paws" meant, and quickly broke free from Yu Ying's hand, climbing off the chessboard into Qin Jue's arms.
"Daddy~, I'm doomed! Will Uncle Yu Yu steal all my delicious food?"
Xiao Xi stood on Qin Jue's lap, her two hands anxiously grabbing Qin Jue's ears.
"Don't worry, he won't. If he dares to steal it, Daddy will beat him up for Xiaoxi."
"Uh-huh"
Xiao Xi'er stared at Qin Jue face-to-face for a while, then turned to look at Yu Ying, afraid that Yu Ying would come over and snatch her delicious food away.
He followed Qin Jue's leg and slid down to stand on the ground, then ran out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
"Daddy~, I'm going to go play with the cat!"
Those who were moving quickly were afraid that Yu Ying would be chasing after them.
"Yansheng, that's going too far! I can't even hug my own little niece?"
"no"
Yu Ying, who was eating pastries, choked when she heard Qin Jue's stern refusal.
After pouring himself two cups of tea, Yu Ying sat back down in the spot where Xiao Xi'er had been sitting, looking at the chessboard.
"Want to play a game?"
"Um"
Yu Ying and Qin Jue started playing chess, talking as they played.
"The kid you had investigated found it."
He was the eldest son of Prince Yang'an.
"Jun Yikuo?"
"Yes, I've already had someone keeping an eye on him, don't worry."
"Um"
The two continued playing Go in silence.
"The events during the Tang Dynasty were mainly instigated by Wei Linglong to Wei Kun."
Qin Jue paused, his hand holding the chess piece still. "The reason?"
Jealous of Tang Shiya
