Originally, Cui Yunrong didn’t expect that Lin Yuan could beat him in a chess ga.
He didn’t even think that Lin Yuan could keep up competing with him for more than half an hour.
Cui Yunrong just wanted to show off a bit before Lin Yuan.
But what Cui Yunrong didn’t expect was that Lin Yuan’s chess skills are in fact better than he thought.
From the first move, everything seems planned, and from the next move to another, he was forced to a dead-end where he could only regret in the end.
Seven tis in a row, Cui Yunrong, a veteran chess player, was defeated.
”Co on again!” Cui Yunrong refused to accept defeat.
His expertise in chess was the best among all players in their neighborhood. How could he lose to Lin Yuan?
It’s not only Cui Yunrong who can’t believe it.
Even Cui Susu, on the side, was also very shocked. She knew that her grandfather was very good at chess.
But Lin Yuan seems to be better, even crushing his grandpa. Is this just pure luck?
They had doubts only in the first round. But in the second round, Lin Yuan proved it wasn’t just pure luck.
In the third, fourth, up to the seventh ga, Cui Yunrong lost consecutively.
And every round finished fast.
It did not even last for five minutes.
Cui Yunrong’s hands were shaking because he did not expect that the chess skills, he is so proud of would be put to test.
Cui Susu looked at Lin Yuan with even more admiration.
Not only is he so handso but he also plays chess very well, which makes him even more charming.
In fact, Cui Yunrong’s chess skills are not bad at all, it is at an advanced level at the least.
However, Lin Yuan’s chess skills at this ti had reached the divine level.
The two are not on the sa level at all. But in the eighth round, Cui Yunrong finally won.
Cui Yunrong jumped up with joy.
He raised his head excitedly only to see a faint smile on Lin Yuan’s face.
Cui Yunrong imdiately understood that Yuan deliberately let him win.
Indeed, this one was deliberate and was very obvious.
Cui Yunrong was stunned for a mont.
He only said just one round but, in the end, he didn’t even ntion the painting after losing seven rounds.
This is the reason why Lin Yuan let him win and co back at him naturally.
Cui Yunrong understands why Lin Yuan did such a thing.
He smiled bitterly at Lin Yuan, arched his hand, and said: “Thank you Little Friend Lin. Alas. I am too old and I didn’t expect to play chess against a young man. It is ridiculous that I said that if you can hold up not losing for at least half an hour, you win. Unexpectedly, I was the one who won’t even hold it for half an hour and lost every ti.”
“But Little Friend Lin’s chess skills are extraordinary. I am truly amazed.”
Lin Yuan smiled and said lightly: “Old man Cui, you are flattering .”
Cui Yunrong turned to Cui Susu and said: “Susu, go back to our residence and take-out Wang Mian’s ‘Ink Plum Blossom’, and give it to Little Friend Lin.”
Cui Susu shook her head and said: “No, I am not going.”
She did not want to leave because she was afraid that Lin Yuan would disappear after she leaves or that Lin Yuan would leave imdiately after he takes possession of the painting.
But Cui Susu still called soone to bring them the painting.
After so ti, a soldier in a military uniform handed the said painting to old man Cui and then left.
Lin Yun was not surprised at how respectful the soldier was towards old man Cui.
Old man Cui himself used to have a high position in the military.
And although old man Cui retired, several of his sons are also known in the military.
It can be said that in Yanjing, the Cui family is quite powerful, and Cui Yunrong is like the boss whom most people have to bow their heads to.
This ti, Cui Yunrong happily opened the painting and showed it to Lin Yuan.
Cui Yunrong smiled and said: “How is it? Isn’t this Wang Mian’s ‘Ink Plum Blossom’ that you want?”
Seeing the painting, Lin Yuan’s eyes lit up.
The plum distribution of this ink plum painting is extrely rhythmic.
The long branches are sparse, the short ones are dense, and are especially full of stans.
The center of the hooked shaped petals is concise.
“Such a great painting of plum blossoms!” Lin Yuan said exaggeratedly.
“Haha. Since you want it, then I will give it to you.” Cui Yunrong didn’t have any problem either and so directly rolled back the painting and handed it to Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan also took it directly with a smile on his face. “Old man Cui, let transfer fifty million now. I am really embarrassed to take such a precious painting without giving anything in return.”
Upon hearing this, Cui Yunrong’s face was stern. “Little Friend Lin, don’t you just look down on the old man. Let save my face. Since I said if you win at chess, you will get the painting for free. Are you trying to slap the old man on the face?”
Cui Susu also said: “Yes! Brother Lin Yuan just accept it.”
Lin Yuan smiled but was too embarrassed to say anything since he took the painting for free.
Cui Yunrong said suddenly: “By the way, this old man just has one condition. In fact, it is not actually a condition but sothing I want to ask of you.”
“That... Little friend Lin, can you teach how to play chess well. It’s just that I have been playing with so old guys, and we have wins and losses there and then. But recently, I believe they have learned a few tricks and I have been losing often. But little friend Lin, your chess skills are more advance than ours. If you can teach a few tricks, then I can beat them all!” Cui Yunrong said with a sense of embarrassnt.
“What’s so difficult? It’s not a big thing really.”
After Lin Yuan opened up the chessboard, he pointed out Cui Yunrong’s mistakes.
Following the guidance of Lin Yuan who had divine-level chess skills, Cui Yunrong finally understood and nodded constantly.
Cui Susu looked at them as if there were a young teacher and an old student being taught and nodding his head, making her speechless.
She admired Lin Yuan even more.
Her father was always slamd by his grandfather at ho even though he was deputy commander in the military.
On the contrary for Lin Yuan, nodded constantly and was very happy to listen to him.
After so talks, Lin Yuan smiled and said: “There you have it. But we need more ti to talk about this. Old man Cui you can add on WeChat and if you have the ti, we can continue with the exchange of ideas about chess.”
“Okay!” Cui Yunrong imdiately took out his phone and scanned Lin Yuan’s WeChat.
Cui Susu also jumped over and said: “Brother Lin Yuan, let add you too.”
“Okay!” Lin Yuan smiled and let Cui Susu scan the sa.
And so, Cui Susu happily added Lin Yuan as a friend.
“Okay, old man Cui and Susu, I have successfully confird you both.” Lin Yuan smiled.
Cui Yunrong suddenly said: “Little Friend Lin, I felt like we are really destined, and I feel very close to you. In chess, our relationship can also be considered as half master-disciple.”
“I do not let others call Old Cui easily as I feel like it makes even more old. But when you called the sa, I did not feel annoyed at all. I feel like we can be close friends. How about I call you Xiao Yuan?”
