Chapter 40
Luo Chaoyan pinched her throat, looked at Huo Jin, and said softly: "My dear, he is your child, and I am your wife. For your sake, I have to try to get along well with him, right?"
"You are the key to whether I can get along with him. For his sake and mine, please don't punish him anymore, okay?"
Seeing that Huo Jin just looked at her without saying anything, she had to keep trying. She walked up to him, gently pulled his sleeve, and said coquettishly, "My dear! Please!" Was she trying too hard just for the old lady's promise? It turns out that all good things in the world require a price. .
Huo Jin coughed lightly and said, "Please speak properly." She was always calm and generous in front of him, so he always felt that her current behavior was too deliberate.
Luo Chaoyan rolled her eyes in her heart. Is this like flirting with a blind man? Then she will use her ultimate move.
She turned around, squeezed two drops of juice from a small piece of onion she had prepared in her sleeve and put them into the corners of her eyes. In an instant, her tears fell uncontrollably. Then she began her performance.
She turned to look at Huo Jin pitifully and said, "Woo woo...it seems that I am not important at all in your heart. You won't even agree to such a small matter."
Huo Jin looked at her helplessly. He thought she was pretending, but when he saw tears on her face, he sighed and said, "Grandmother doted on him too much, so he became such a troublemaker. If he is not punished, he will never know where he went wrong."
Luo Chaoyan sniffed and muttered, "Then grandma has already punished him, right?"
"And the clan leader also punished him to copy books."
"Patriarch?"
Huo Jin frowned and asked, "What's going on? Why would the clan leader punish him as well?"
Well! An accidental slip of the tongue. The old lady asked her to keep it a secret.
Luo Chaoyan said: "Xiao Rui had an argument with someone in the clan school, so the clan leader punished everyone by making them copy books." Ahem! I had an argument with her, but she didn't lie.
"My dear, how about this? I'll play a game of chess with you. If I win, you'll spare him this time, how about that?" Luo Chaoyan said hurriedly.
Huo Jin looked at him with a smile in his eyes and asked, "Are you sure?"
"Of course, but you are a master after all. To be fair, you have to give me five chess pieces." Luo Chaoyan said as a matter of course.
Huo Jin saw that her eyes were slightly red, and her clear eyes were full of seriousness, so he said, "Okay, as you say."
Luo Chaoyan then burst into laughter and said, "It's a deal."
She moved the teapot aside and placed the prepared chessboard on the coffee table. The two began to play chess.
After being beaten and beaten by Huo Jin on the chessboard every day, Luo Chaoyan's chess skills improved a little.
However, facing Huo Jin, a conservative man without any charm or humor, she could forget about expecting him to let her off.
When it was Huo Jin's turn to make a move, she hurriedly stopped him and said, "Wait! Well, I didn't think it through just now. I'll change my position."
"You can't regret your move." Huo Jin said.
Luo Chaoyan glared at him in reproach and said, "My dear, you still don't know how to do it, so what's wrong with you letting me do it?"
Huo Jin had no choice but to follow her.
But as the game went on, Huo Jin discovered that her style of chess today was different from the past. Not only was she deliberately setting up confusing formations and luring the enemy in, but by the end, he actually felt like he had met his match.
Luo Chaoyan looked very proud, "Hehe! My dear, have I improved a lot?" If this girl gets serious, she won't even recognize herself.
Cough cough! That was an exaggeration. She just happened to remember that in modern times, her financial director liked to play chess. He would play chess with himself in his spare time, and there would often be a chessboard in his office. I heard that a colleague said that he had a chessboard that had been broken for a long time and he couldn't crack it.
She went to watch it several times out of curiosity. She didn't know much about black and white chess, but she had a good memory and did remember the moves on the other side.
The game of chess she was playing now was actually just a copy of the ideas and layout of that game.
Huo Jin saw that half of his chess pieces on the board had been eaten, but when he looked at hers, he saw that she still had some strength. He looked at her and saw that she was as smug as a little fox. He chuckled and said, "You win."
Hearing this, Luo Chaoyan's pretty face was filled with joy. She jumped up happily, hugged Huo Jin's neck, and said, "Haha! I won! I actually won."
She raised her head and looked him in the eye, smiling brightly at him, and said, "My dear, you must keep your promise."
Seeing her bright smile again, Huo Jin's heart moved and his eyes became profound. Before, when we were on the roadside, I saw her fighting wits with Gu Ling and the restaurant owner, and she had the same smile on her face at that time.
When Luo Chaoyan saw that he didn't say anything and his expression was a little unclear, she realized that she was still hanging on him. Blame her for being too excited. She hurried to get off him.
But Huo Jin's hands were holding her waist tightly, not moving at all.
"My dear?"
Huo Jin looked at her and said, "It's getting late, take a rest."
Just take a break, why are you holding my waist? Luo Chaoyan felt uneasy.
"Well, my dear, I'll go take a bath first."
The implication was that he wanted him to let go.
"How about we take a shower together?" Seeing that he didn't let go, she boldly invited him. She just didn't believe that he would agree. With his personality, he wouldn't really dare to do such a thing.
Hearing this, Huo Jin coughed lightly and said, "Go wash." Then he let the person go.
After washing up, they lay on the bed.
Luo Chaoyan rolled into the bed out of habit. Just when she was about to ask Huo Jin to turn off the lights, Huo Jin took her into his arms. Then she was eaten up without knowing what was happening.
Before falling asleep, she gritted her teeth. She had no intention of using the beauty trap, so why did she still have to pay with her body? What's wrong with Huo Jin? He has made her suffer so much. You lost to her in chess and want revenge? This guy doesn't seem like such a stingy person. What went wrong?
