Chapter 868: Chapter 868: That’s Not How You Play—Do It Over, Do It Over
"You stay with Grandpa first, I’ll be there soon."
Mr. Bei Chen caught a cold a few days ago. It was just a minor cold initially, so he didn’t pay much attention to it and didn’t tell them either.
Later on, because he didn’t take care of it, it got sowhat serious. That day, she received a call out of the blue, saying that Grandpa had a fever, which really startled her.
The old man is already of age, so illnesses need to be taken more seriously. Yet he endured it without saying anything. Because of this, Beichen Rui scolded him a few tis these days.
"Housekeeper Lin, don’t let Grandpa eat anything cold, give him an extra coat. I’ll be there in about half an hour."
When she left, she heard Grandpa saying he wanted sothing cold. She figured he’d start fussing for it as soon as she left.
"Yes, I understand, Young Madam. Not long after you left, the old man was sneaking so food, but I caught him."
Housekeeper Lin reported with a chuckle.
"Got it, I’m hanging up now, I need to drive."
She hung up the phone, started the car, and drove towards the old Beichen Family residence.
Upon returning to the residence, she heard the old man’s voice as soon as she entered.
"That’s not how you play, do you even know how to play? Can you not waste my ti, look carefully before making a move, start over, start over..."
Beichen Jue’s voice was a bit hoarse and muffled. It wasn’t hard to hear that he was a bit excited.
After changing her shoes and walking to the living room, she saw Housekeeper Lin playing chess with him.
"Xinluo, my girl, you’re back! Co play with . Housekeeper Lin’s no good, he always makes the wrong moves, and I have to remind him. It’s really sothing..."
Housekeeper Lin felt wronged inside.
Clearly, it was he himself who made the wrong moves, yet he wanted to bla it on him...
He’s just a housekeeper, is it easy?
He has to take the bla for the master, and most importantly, he can’t say a word.
Ye Xinluo understood what Housekeeper Lin was trying to convey. She looked down and couldn’t help but chuckle lightly, "Grandpa, I don’t know how to play this."
"It’s okay if you don’t know how to play. Let Housekeeper Lin teach you. As long as you keep
company, it’s all good."
To the side, Housekeeper Lin was speechless: "..."
Didn’t he just say he couldn’t play himself? Why was he still supposed to teach the Young Madam?
Housekeeper Lin made way, and Ye Xinluo had no choice but to sit down.
As for chess, she really had no clue. But with Housekeeper Lin around, it shouldn’t be too hard!
"No, no, that’s not how you move."
In less than three minutes, Mr. Bei Chen spoke up. Ye Xinluo, puzzled, turned her head to look at Housekeeper Lin.
Housekeeper Lin just lightly pressed his lips together without saying anything.
This... She suddenly realized this chess ga was hard!
A few minutes later, Beichen Jue’s voice rang out again.
"Xinluo, my girl, I just made a wrong move, I’ll change it."
Is that how it’s supposed to be played?
She was speechless for a mont, and before she could turn her head, Housekeeper Lin gave a light cough.
Oh well, she didn’t know how to play anyway. The most important thing was that Grandpa was happy...
She picked up a chess piece and made a random move, and suddenly, the old man burst into laughter.
"Xinluo, my girl, you lost. You all can’t beat ."
Ye Xinluo: "..."
Housekeeper Lin: "..."
"Xinluo, my girl, since you lost, can you promise
one thing?"
Suddenly leaning towards Ye Xinluo, he put away his smile and looked at her seriously.
"No eating cold food, no going out for fun. Grandpa, what do you want?"
With a smile on her face, she blinked and replied very sincerely.
These days, Beichen Jue wasn’t feeling well and had been staying at the old residence, constantly saying he wanted to go out and see friends every day.
Recently, the weather had cooled, and Ye Xinluo was worried that his health couldn’t take it, so she wouldn’t let him go.
