Mr. Lin and others left, but Bai Yan told Bai Xiongying that she had something to ask Qiu Shui and Lou Yuchen, so she stayed.
Bai Yan, who stayed behind, stood in front of Qiu Shui and Lou Yuchen, feeling a little embarrassed to speak.
Bai Yan wanted to ask Lou Yuchen if he could join the Holy Chess Club.
But, I didn’t know how to start for a moment.
Qiu Shui was the first to speak to him: "Bai Yan, do you know the Shengqi Go Club?"
Bai Yan was stunned for a moment and said, "Of course."
"Then are you interested in joining our Shengqi Go Club?"
"ah?"
Bai Yan was a little dumbfounded.
The Shengqi Club is actually quite famous in the professional Go world. Because this club was founded by Lou Yuchen and Liang Zitao.
But after the club won the third place in the Weiqi League last year, all the chess players with some ability in the club were poached.
Now there are only two or three kittens left in the club.
No one can fight.
In addition, although Lou Yuchen is a shareholder of this club. However, Lou Yuchen is not the coach of the chess team, nor is he the team leader.
In the Go club, I'm basically just a member with a name on it.
Lou Yuchen basically doesn't care about the chess team's affairs. Not to mention, giving any advice to the chess players in the club.
Therefore, many chess players who had wanted to go after Lou Yuchen before have now given up.
Not long ago, there was news that Shengqi Club was almost forced to sell its house because Lou Yuchen could not get investment.
There is no one here and no money.
It is no wonder that the newly promoted youth players today have all been signed by other professional Go teams.
Therefore, Bai Yan felt that if this was true, then he would have a chance to join the Holy Chess Club. After all, there aren't many chess players in the Holy Chess Club right now.
Even if Lou Yuchen is unwilling to sign him.
At worst, he can invest in the Holy Chess Club himself. Enter as an investor.
Unexpectedly, before he could even utter this word, Qiu Shui spoke first.
"Of course, of course I want to join the Holy Chess Club." Bai Yan felt like a pie in the sky.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Bai Yan suddenly felt something was wrong.
"Your Shengqi Go Club?"
Qiu Shui nodded, "Yes, not long ago, I invested in the Shengqi Club. Now I am the largest shareholder of the Shengqi Club."
"That Lou Shen..." Bai Yan was shocked and looked at Lou Yuchen.
He remembered that the Shengqi Club was founded by Lou Yuchen and Liang Zitao.
Now that Qiu Shui has gotten involved, could it be that Lou Yuchen is no longer a shareholder of the Shengqi Club?
Qiu Shui saw through his thoughts, smiled and glanced at Lou Yuchen, and said, "Don't worry, your idol is still a shareholder of the club. Not only a shareholder, he will also be the coach of the players participating in the Weiqi B tournament this time."
"Really?" Bai Yan was extremely surprised.
"I think he should agree, right?" Qiu Shui looked at Lou Yuchen with a smile.
"Yes." Lou Yuchen held his forehead with his hand, looking like he was helpless against Qiu Shui.
He felt helpless, yet indulgent towards Qiu Shui's behavior of selling him out without hesitation in order to sign a chess player.
"Look, he's admitted it. So, do you want to sign a contract with our club?" Qiu Shui didn't feel the slightest bit of guilt about betraying her boyfriend.
"Of course." Bai Yan jumped up from the sofa excitedly.
Now there are only three kittens in the Holy Chess Club. Although he is a beginner.
However, if he joins the club, based on the number of people, he will definitely be able to participate in the Weiqi B competition.
Even if he can't become a main player, he is willing to be a substitute.
"Okay, then you can stay and have lunch with us. I'll ask Liang Zitao to bring the contract over in the afternoon."
In the afternoon, Qiu Shui also made an appointment with Liang Zitao, asking him to bring other chess players from the club to see their club's office.
It’s just right, let Liang Zitao bring the contract over and sign it with Bai Yan. I finally managed to get a chess player, I can’t let him get away.
"Okay, okay, I'll call my dad right now and tell him I won't be back at noon." Bai Yan excitedly took the phone and ran to the side to make a call.
Qiu Shui watched Bai Yan smiling as she held her cell phone and called her father.
I couldn't help but smile and said to Lou Yuchen: "Not bad, Lord Lou, please continue to display your Lord Lou's charm and make great contributions to our club again."
Lou Yuchen's eyes were full of doting, and he said, "Do you want to sell me again?"
"Of course." Qiu Shui said as a matter of course: "After all, as the owner of the club, it's time for you to make some contributions to the club. Who made you the charisma of the chess god?"
Lou Yuchen shook his head helplessly.
What else can you do if you choose your partner? You can only pamper him/her.
Bai Xiongying found out that Bai Yan was actually kept by Qiu Shui for lunch, and even that Bai Yan was directly signed into the club invested by Qiu Shui. It was the first time I saw it so intuitively. It turns out that playing chess has such great benefits.
Look at Grandpa Lin and Grandpa Yun, they also brought their grandchildren here.
As a result, Qiu Shui nodded politely to both of them. The two of them didn't even get a chance to say a word to Qiu Shui.
And his own son not only talked and laughed with Qiu Shui at the banquet.
Today, Qiu Shui actually asked me personally to invite me to join the Go club that Qiu Shui invested in.
From then on, Bai Yan became Qiu Shui's subordinate.
From now on, if anything happens to the Bai family, Qiu Shui will do it for Bai Yan's sake. Nor will we sit idly by. This is a blessing from heaven!
The other side of the airport.
Liang Zitao was at the airport, waiting for He Ran's plane.
As a result, before the plane arrived, he received the message from Qiu Shui.
Tell him to come to Castle in the Air in the afternoon and bring a signed contract with him.
It is said that a new chess player has been recruited for the club.
I looked at the name again, wow, it’s an acquaintance.
Bai Yan, the son of Bai Xiongying.
That little fan of Lou Yuchen.
Although Bai Yan is the last person to successfully qualify as a professional player this year, his chess skills are still pretty good.
Liang Zitao had seen enough of his chess and thought that signing him would be a very good idea.
In fact, Liang Zitao had an idea yesterday and wanted to ask Bai Yan if he was interested in signing their club.
Unexpectedly, Qiu Shui took action directly.
Then I saw Qiu Shui said that he signed Bai Yan only after selling out Lou Yuchen.
Liang Zitao gave Qiu Shui twelve likes.
And replied that Lou Yuchen should have been asked to "sell himself" long ago.
If Lou Yuchen had come out to "sell himself" earlier, all the chess players in their club would not have been poached.
Liang Zitao was chatting enthusiastically with Qiu Shui.
Suddenly, the radio sounded.
He Ran's plane landed.
Liang Zitao immediately put away his phone and ran to pick someone up.
Half an hour later.
Liang Zitao got into the white sedan he had bought earlier.
In the back seat of his car, there was a handsome young man and a little boy about four years old with fair skin and a chubby face.
The little boy sat obediently in the back seat of the car, with his chubby little hands resting in front of the window, looking at the scenery outside.
Looks quiet and well-behaved.
Liang Zitao glanced at the little boy in the rearview mirror and couldn't help but ask, "It's only been a few months since we last met. Do you miss Uncle Tao every day?"
After hearing what Liang Zitao said, the little boy turned his eyes away from the scenery outside the window, then looked at Liang Zitao in the driver's seat, nodded vigorously, and said in a baby voice, "I thought about it."
Just after he finished speaking, the little boy quickly added, "But, I miss Master more."
The smile on Liang Zitao's face froze, and his heart shattered with a bang.
"Xiao Tiantian, you really hurt my heart. You don't even know that when I heard you were coming back, I was busy decorating your room the day before yesterday. I also bought you new clothes and new toys. But in the end, you were obsessed with that icy face of Achen?"
Liang Zitao said unwillingly: "Tell me, what's so good about that Ice Face? Can he compare to me?"
He Tiantian said righteously, "Master is better looking than you, and plays chess better than you. He can also repair toys, cook, and..."
"Stop talking. I was wrong."
Seeing He Tiantian chattering about several points in which Lou Yuchen was better than him, Liang Zitao immediately surrendered.
"He Ran, you don't care about your son."
The handsome young man sitting in the back row chuckled, "Tell me, how many times has this happened? You ask this question every time. Aren't you asking for trouble? You know that Tiantian's favorite person is the master."
"You still call me master. Achen hasn't agreed to take you as his apprentice yet." Liang Zitao actually thinks He Ran is pretty good. Although his talent in Go is not very high, he loves playing Go very much.
The most important thing is that Lou Yuchen only taught him two games of chess, but he has always respected Lou Yuchen as his master.
Over the years, my respectful attitude towards Lou Yuchen has never changed.
"If it weren't for Master's two games of chess that woke me up, I wouldn't be who I am now. Later, if it weren't for you and Master taking me in, we would have been homeless."
He Ran reached out and touched the head of his son, He Tiantian, and said with gratitude: "So, in my heart, Lou Shen will always be my master. And you will always be my good friend."
Liang Zitao actually knew that He Tiantian liked Lou Yuchen more, not because Lou Yuchen was better than him. Better than him.
But two years ago, it was Lou Yuchen who brought He Ran and He Tiantian, who were living on the streets, back to the club.
Although Tiantian was only two years old at that time, he remembered that it was Lou Yuchen who saved him and his father.
So, even though Lou Yuchen's attitude towards him has always been indifferent, he still likes Lou Yuchen very much.
"It's all in the past. Why are you still bringing it up?" Liang Zitao couldn't stand this sentimental talk and changed the subject: "Tiantian, did you know you have a witch?"
"I know. My dad told me." Tiantian grabbed the small schoolbag next to him, and then took out a furry pink long-eared rabbit doll from the small schoolbag.
Then he showed off to Liang Zitao.
"Uncle Tao, this is the little rabbit I bought for my grandmother with all my pocket money. Dad said that girls all like this. My grandmother will definitely like it too, right?"
Liang Zitao said with a smile: "He Ran, didn't you tell Tiantian that his mistress is a man?"
He Ran shook his head helplessly, "I forgot to tell him. He asked Jerry next door to secretly take him to buy this. I only found out about it after he bought it. Later, I was embarrassed to criticize him, so I never told him."
After hearing what the two said, Xiao Tiantian was a little dumbfounded, holding the little rabbit in his arms.
"Dad, you just said that the master's wife is a boy?"
"Yes, it's a boy." He Ran knew that this matter would not be kept secret, so he just said it directly.
"Ah? Is the master's wife a boy? I didn't even know."
Little Tiantian looked at the rabbit doll in his hand, and his chubby little face fell.
His eyes began to water and his voice choked up.
"Dad, what should we do? If the witch is a boy, will this little rabbit witch still like him?"
Liang Zitao, who was driving, heard the sound of little Tiantian choking and said quickly: "Yes, the rabbit is so cute, Tiantian's mother-in-law will definitely like it."
"Really?" Xiao Tiantian sniffed.
"Really." Liang Zitao gritted his teeth and said, "Your master likes little rabbits the most."
I hope Qiu Shui won't let me down by then.
………………
"Ah, rabbits are so cute, I like little rabbits the most." Qiu Shui opened his mouth and put the braised rabbit meat on the chopsticks into his mouth.
The rabbit meat is firm, chewy, and surprisingly tender. The taste is very delicious.
Qiu Shui gave Lou Yuchen a thumbs up.
"Lou Yuchen, your braised rabbit meat is absolutely amazing."
Bai Yan, who was eating with her mouth full of oil, also gave Lou Yuchen a thumbs up.
"It's so delicious, Mr. Lou. I feel like your cooking skills are better than any five-star or six-star chef. The dish you made is also delicious."
Bai Yan didn't expect that Lou Yuchen would cook for lunch himself.
As a professional chess player, a pair of hands is very important.
Therefore, professional chess players, both men and women, rarely cook.
He never expected that Lou Yuchen not only cooked the meal himself, but also the food he cooked was so delicious.
Once she started eating, Bai Yan couldn’t stop.
There was no need to be embarrassed or unfamiliar. Just eat it up.
"If you like it, eat more." Lou Yuchen picked up a piece of rabbit meat and put it in Qiu Shui's bowl, saying, "A Tao just sent a message saying that he has taken He Ran and Tian Tian back to the villa. I will bring He Ran and Tian Tian here later. I will let you meet them by the way."
Qiu Shui picked up the rabbit meat, put it in his mouth, and said vaguely: "Sure. It's a good opportunity for us to go and see how the club's office should be decorated."
Suddenly Qiu Shui remembered something and said to Bai Yan, "Bai Yan, after signing the contract, do you want to live at home or move to the dormitory of our Shengqi Club?"
"Of course we're moving to the dormitory. But I heard that the dormitory and office of our Shengqi Club are going to be demolished. We'll all move out by the end of the month."
Bai Yan only found out about this not long ago.
"I have found a new dormitory and office. I will take you to see the new office this afternoon." Qiu Shui had asked Lu Guangshen to make an appointment with the decoration designer to come and bring the prepared decoration design plan for Liang Zitao and others to see.
2:30 in the afternoon.
The designer has arrived with the design drawings.
Lu Guangshen found a total of five famous decoration designers in Shanghai, and each designer came up with several decoration plans.
Qiu Shui and Lou Yuchen looked at the decoration plans and renderings.
I found that each plan and rendering has its own characteristics and styles.
But they all fit in with the theme of the Go Club.
Qiu Shui directly handed a part of the design drawings to Bai Yan.
"Take a look and see which decoration style you like."
Bai Yan took the design with a puzzled look on his face, "Show it to me? Why?"
"Your own chess room should of course be decorated in the style you like."
Although it has not been signed yet. But in Qiu Shui's heart, Bai Yan has already become a member of the Shengqi Club. The kind that can't be escaped.
"My own chess room?" Bai Yan was surprised.
"Yes, it's your own independent chess room. Take a look and see what style you like. Then we can decorate it accordingly."
Qiu Shui has already seen it. The 88th floor is very large. There is a chess room for each person, and there is still a lot of space left.
So Qiu Shui plans to build a gym, an entertainment room, etc.
When you get tired of playing chess, you can also do some exercise. Entertain your body and mind.
Bai Yan was really shocked.
This was the first time he heard that an ordinary member of a chess team could have his own independent chess room.
You know, even among the top chess teams, only the coaches or captains of the teams can have independent chess rooms.
And they are still a minority.
"Mr. Qiu, you don't need to underestimate my status. Since I have joined the club, you can just treat me as an ordinary chess player. There is no need to set up a separate chess room for me."
Bai Yan thought that Qiu Shui had an independent chess room for him because of his father Bai Xiongying.
If that were the case, Bai Yan was afraid that other chess players in the club would have objections.
Bai Yan just wanted to join the club as an ordinary professional chess player. It's not like I get any special treatment.
Seeing that Bai Yan had misunderstood, Qiu Shui explained: "You misunderstood. This independent chess room is not just for you. It belongs to everyone in our club. Including those chess players who will join our Go club in the future."
All chess players have it?
How big an office would this be?
From what Qiu Shui said, he is also planning to sign some more chess players.
There is plenty of space for each person, given that he has a chess room.
"Mr. Qiu, can I ask where our club's office is? Is it far from where we are staying?"
Bai Yan was worried that the office rented by Qiu Shui was too far from where he lived, which would be inconvenient. It takes a lot of time to go back and forth every day.
Qiu Shui said: "Not far, your dormitory is nearby. The office is even closer, just 88 floors downstairs."
"The 88th floor here?" Bai Yan didn't expect Qiu Shui to rent the 88th floor of the Brilliant Building as an office.
“The rent on the 88th floor isn’t cheap, is it?”
Bai Yan knew that the rent in Brilliant Building was not cheap. The higher the floor, the more expensive the rent.
"No need to rent, he bought the 88th floor." When Lou Yuchen said this, it felt as casual as Qiu Shui buying a cabbage.
After finishing speaking, Lou Yuchen picked out a decoration rendering and handed it to Qiu Shui, asking, "How about this one?"
Qiu Shui took a look and nodded, "Yeah, I was attracted by this one just now. It's simple and comfortable."
The two of them ignored Bai Yan as they talked.
Bai Yan was dumbfounded by what Lou Yuchen said just now.
“Bought the 88th floor?”
He knew Qiu Shui was rich. After all, the tea he drank was worth 500,000 yuan per gram.
But this is a magnificent building.
The entire 88th floor is at least more than 3,000 square meters.
According to the current market price of the Brilliant Building, it is at least over 10 billion. And it's the kind that even if you have money you may not be able to buy it.
Now Qiu Shui actually bought an entire floor just to use as an office for their Holy Chess Club?
No wonder Qiu Shui said to give each chess player a chess room.
Not to mention one chess room, even having several chess rooms for one person is not a problem.
Qiu Shui and Lou Yuchen were talking about furniture.
Suddenly, Qiu Shui's cell phone on the table rang.
Qiu Shui picked up the phone and saw that it was a call from Liang Zitao.
"You're here? Okay, then go straight to the 88th floor. We'll go down now."
After hanging up the phone, Qiu Shui said to Lou Yuchen: "Liang Zitao and the others have arrived, let's go down now."
"good."
Lou Yuchen asked the designers to prepare the decoration plans and design drawings and follow along.
After Liang Zitao hung up the phone downstairs, he asked in confusion: "Strange, don't Qiu Shui and A Chen live on the top floor? Why did they ask us to go to the 88th floor?"
"Forget it, never mind." Liang Zitao turned around and said to He Ran and the others, "Let's go to the 88th floor."
Qiu Shui and others took the exclusive elevator from the top floor and arrived quickly.
Liang Zitao and his group were a little slower, but they arrived soon.
When Liang Zitao and He Ran stepped out of the elevator, they saw Qiu Shui and others standing not far away.
Liang Zitao hurriedly took He Ran and others over.
Qiu Shui's eyes first fell on the handsome young man behind Liang Zitao who was holding a little boy of four or five years old in his hand.
That person is He Ran.
Qiu Shui had seen his photo, so he recognized him at first sight.
He Ran took He Tiantian by the hand and walked in front of Qiu Shui and Lou Yuchen.
He first respectfully called Lou Yuchen "Master", and then respectfully called Qiu Shui "Uncle Master".
He Tiantian also called Lou Yuchen "Master" in a baby voice, and then when he looked at Qiu Shui, he shyly called her "Master".
Qiu Shui, who was called a witch, was stunned for a moment. Then he realized that if Lou Yuchen was his master's grandfather, it would not be wrong to call him master's wife.
But Qiu Shui still felt that the title of "witch" was not very good, so he squatted down and smiled at He Tiantian.
"You are Tiantian, right? My name is Qiu Shui, you can just call me Master Qiu."
He Ran was stunned for a moment when he heard Qiu Shui's words. Then a hint of joy appeared on his face and he looked at Lou Yuchen with anticipation.
Lou Yuchen glanced at him calmly and said, "Just do as he says."
He Ran was instantly overjoyed and quickly said to He Tiantian: "Tiantian, hurry up and call Master Qiu."
After hearing what his father said, He Tiantian called out in a baby voice, "Master Qiu."
Then he handed the pink rabbit doll in his hand to Qiu Shui, "Master Qiu, this is for you."
"A gift for me?" Qiu Shui took the pink rabbit and inexplicably thought of the braised rabbit meat he had eaten at noon.
"Well, I bought it for Master Qiu myself. Does Master Qiu like it?" He Tiantian blinked his cute big eyes and looked at Qiu Shui expectantly.
Qiu Shui didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I like it, I like it very much, thank you Tiantian."
Qiu Shui didn't expect that he would receive a gift from the child as soon as they met.
This child is so cute.
"Qiu Shui, why did you suddenly ask us to come here? Didn't we agree to go see the office?" Liang Zitao took a look and found that the 88th floor was empty, with nothing on it.
I don’t understand why Qiu Shui called them here.
Qiu Shui held the little rabbit doll, stood up, and said, "This is our club's office. It takes up an entire floor."
"What?" Liang Zitao's eyes widened. "Qiu Shui, are you kidding me?"
Qiu Shui glanced at him and said, "Do you think I'm joking? Didn't you say so? Several teams from the Chinese Weiqi League are in this magnificent building. We are also a future Chinese Weiqi League team, so of course our office can't be worse than other teams'."
"But isn't it too extravagant for you to rent a floor?"
How much is the rent this month? Liang Zitao didn't even dare to calculate.
"I didn't rent it. I bought it. I don't have to worry about moving the office anymore."
"Bought it?" Liang Zitao's voice suddenly rose, and then he asked Lou Yuchen: "Is it true?"
Lou Yuchen nodded: "Really."
Then he pointed to the group of designers at the back and said, "Qiu Shui has already found a designer and has drawn up the decoration plan. You can take a look at what style you like. Each person will have an independent chess room."
Liang Zitao, He Ran and others were all stunned when they heard what Lou Yuchen said.
