Chapter 644: Old But Gold
Su Yan watched as she hurriedly put on her clothes and ran out. She grabbed her and made her put on a down jacket. “It’s been more than two hours. Even if they wanted to kill someone and dismember their body, it would have already been cleaned up. There’s no point in being so anxious.”
Did she really think their family would devour him?
Ling Sheng would be lying if she said she was not anxious. She just wanted to know why he had come to the Su Family directly. She looked at Su Yan and asked, “Aunt, does he know that I’m unconscious?”
Su Yan rolled her eyes at her. “Do you think he’s a living G.o.d? He only found out after he came. What a coincidence. He just knew that you were coming and wanted to curry favor and win people’s hearts.”
Upon hearing this, Ling Sheng thought to herself, How could the Third Master be so scheming? However, when she thought about it again, he had spent so much money to make her father happy when the movie had been released. There was really nothing he could not do.
As it turned out, Ling Sheng had been overthinking. When she ran over in a hurry, the Third Master was playing chess with the Old Master!
The chessboard had been placed on the big kang bed at home. The old folks at home liked this place. It was big, and it could be opened and warmed.
Jun Shiyan was sitting opposite the Old Master with a chessboard between them.
Xiaoqi was sitting beside Jun Shiyan, his big, bright eyes staring at the chessboard without blinking. If one did not know better, one would think that he could understand the game!
Su Cunshi and Su Heng were also watching the chess game.
Upon seeing Ling Sheng sit beside Jun Shiyan, Xiaoqi hurriedly got up and ran into her embrace. He hooked his arms around her neck and whispered in her ear.
It was very quiet. Ling Sheng’s voice was also very low, as she was afraid of disturbing their game.
As soon as the young lady entered, Jun Shiyan saw her sit down beside him. His lips curled up subconsciously.
To the people who liked to play chess, a game of chess was a battle. Troops were moved with just one’s fingertips.
In the past, Jun Shiyan had basically not interacted much with the Su Family. If it had not been for Ling Sheng, he might not have had a deep relationship in his life.
The old man in front of him was in his nineties. He was well-respected, but he was very interesting. When an ordinary opponent faced a powerful attack from the other party, they would tighten their battlefront and defend themselves step by step. However, the old man had started fighting with him aggressively. Both sides had abandoned their horses and rooks and were fighting ferociously. In the end, the old man did not have a single defensive p.a.w.n left.
In the second round, the old man used a completely different tactic to recreate the defense line. This made him, who had always boasted of his excellent chess skills, make some effort to break through the strong defense and capture the opponent’s king.
This was the third round.
Su Cunshi and Su Heng were also watching the chess game. The Old Master’s chess level was neither good nor bad. They had not seen anyone beat him before. but even if someone could beat him, they would not dare win in order to make the Old Master happy.
Therefore, only the Old Master’s old friends could be his match. Now that all his old friends had pa.s.sed away, only the Old Master of the Chu Family was left.
It had been a long time since they had seen a game that could make the Old Master so vigilant and agitated. Jun Shiyan had made the right bet.
At the last moment of the game, Jun Shiyan realized that he had been badly battered by the old man’s seemingly ordinary moves. In the end, he had actually been defeated while attacking wantonly—just one step before he could clinch victory.
“Indeed, being old is gold.” Jun Shiyan looked at the mess in front of him and smiled.
