"If I had seen it back then, I probably wouldn't have let Ning Feng participate in that traditional test, and would have recommended him directly to headquarters... But then I would have missed out on him."
Luckily I didn't see it at the time!
So, long live slacking off!
"Besides, he played chess with me before. Although he was a complete novice, he lost the first few games, even faster than you."

Jiang Wan: ? ? ?
