Chapter 41: Chapter 41: Needs a Bit of Intelligence
“Haha…” Ji Family’s patriarch laughed heartily, “That’s thrilling! Old chap, it’s been a while since you’ve been pressed like this, huh? Little girl, you really are sothing.”
Mu Lingyun smiled, “You flatter , patriarch. I wonder, with a ga like this, can my punishnt be waived now?”
“It can, I enjoyed this ga thoroughly. Regardless of win or loss, the fight you had is all in the past now, I won’t pursue it anymore. But you can’t go easy, beat him for , let’s see if he can still be smug,” the Ji family patriarch said.
Mu Lingyun smiled, “Since the patriarch has said so, I certainly won’t lose. Elder, your move.”
The elder holding the black stones hesitated for a while before making his move.
About twenty minutes later, the elder with the black stones dropped his pieces and said, “I lost this ga, let’s play another.”
“Another ga? What do you an another ga? You’ve already lost, what more do you want? Little Yunyun, you play the next ga with .” Ji Family’s patriarch knew Mu Lingyun’s na, thanks to the Rong Family patriarch often bragging about his granddaughter in front of him.
“Oh…” Mu Lingyun said with a smile brimming, “Maybe we should stop here, chess is too brain-racking. If there’s no stake, it really isn’t necessary to exert this brainpower!”
“There’s a stake!” Ji Family’s patriarch thought for a while and said, “If you play against and win, I’ll give you my grandson.”
“Play against ,” the elder who just lost also hurriedly said, “I lost, you can have my grandson!”
Mu Lingyun: …
They must be talking about Ji Luochen, aren’t they?
If it involves betting the Crown Prince, it indeed could be considered.
After hesitating for just a minute, Mu Lingyun agreed.
She played two rounds, each lasting less than an hour, and she won both.
Thus, both elders ended up losing Ji Luochen to Mu Lingyun.
The news soon reached Ji Luochen’s ears.
“So, you’re not your own master anymore? You belong to that woman now?” Xiao Kai, Ji Luochen’s only brother, felt a sense of schadenfreude at this news.
“What do these two old n take for? A bet?” Ji Luochen’s face, handso and delicate, showed a gloom as he spoke indifferently, “I’d like to see which woman dares to treat as a bet.”
“So, are you attending the banquet today?” Xiao Kai asked teasingly.
Ji Luochen’s slightly pale face was expressionless as he nodded coldly, “I’ll go and see.”
–
After playing three rounds of chess, successfully avoiding the punishnt for fighting, and winning Ji Luochen, Mu Lingyun returned to the banquet with Rong Shicheng and Shaofeng.
“Sister, you can actually play Go? I haven’t heard you ntion it before.” Rong Shicheng said in surprise,
Shaofeng, rubbing his chin thoughtfully, said, “A ga of Go can avoid the punishnt for fighting, and then with two more gas, you won a Crown Prince back ho. Sister, Go really is sothing great, teach .”
Mu Lingyun looked at Shaofeng seriously for a while and then said, “You better not learn, Go might still require a bit of intelligence!”
Shaofeng: …
Is she saying he has no intelligence?
“Mu Lingyun, that’s a personal attack! I’m going to tell mom and dad, tell grandpa, tell brother!” Shaofeng said through gritted teeth.
“It’s useless.” Rong Shicheng said lightly, “I think mom and dad, and grandpa would probably agree with my sister’s opinion, at least I do!”
Shaofeng: …
Following behind them, Han Ming, still enduring the pain from a beating, frowned in thought.
