Chapter 597 Besieged on all sides
After Su Chengyi made up for it a few times with a nonchalant expression, those who were familiar with Chu Xuanxuan, a child with a bad temper, were already prepared for the kid to throw a tantrum and throw a tantrum, reminding themselves to always be able to hold down the restless him. safe distance.
Unexpectedly, Chu Xuanxuan was unexpectedly very well-behaved. Not only was he not anxious, he even looked at the chessboard intently, as if he was listening very seriously.
This actually made the adults nearby who were collectively preparing for war a little confused. They looked at each other and had no idea why.
Su Chengyi held another white piece and fell to another position.
"When I get down here, you should be able to guess my intentions immediately. But you are too forward-thinking and not sure. On the contrary, you are more likely to make mistakes, making one step wrong and the next step wrong."
"The siege is like the sky, and the game is like the earth. Playing chess is like life, making decisions openly and honestly, and admitting defeat when defeated is bright and clear."
"If you make a move without regrets, you will lose if you hesitate."
Su Chengyi knocked down the last chess piece and spoke slowly.
With black and white interlaced on the chessboard, he easily restored the most critical moves in the game just now. This made the trend of the entire chess game clear and clear, which was the most effective means of review.
At this time, not only Chu Xuanxuan, but also other people watching around also felt a "convinced" feeling inexplicably coming from their hearts.
Just like the sect competition in Xianxia novels, the moment the swords and energies intersect, you will know that this person's realm is far above your own, that kind of "convinced".
Chu Xuanxuan's smooth life finally encountered the first big obstacle, but even he was surprised that he didn't feel angry at all.
Maybe it's because the person opposite him doesn't have any winning mentality.
For him, playing chess was just playing chess without any distracting thoughts. From the moment he made the move, he never thought about winning or losing, he just played chess.
Chu Xuanxuan suddenly thought of the day he first learned chess. The teacher sat cross-legged opposite the chess board. He was not in a hurry to tell him the rules of Go, but instead talked about the development history of Go.
This was not a topic that Chu Xuanxuan was interested in, so he listened drowsily and not seriously.
But at this moment, he thought of the poem the teacher read at that time.
"The fairy men with beautiful hair are playing chess together, and the woodcutter has died and forgotten to return home. The sun and moon are so late in the cave, and the prosperity and decline in the world are known."
"Thank you, I understand."
Chu Xuanxuan took a deep breath, stood up properly, and bowed.
This scene shocked the Chu family around them as much as the monkeys in Mount Emei suddenly became as obedient as the golden monkeys.
In fact, although Chu Xuanxuan is a bit arrogant, he is indeed smart. He is extremely talented in both studies and hobbies.
Because of this, he has developed a stubborn temperament with a strong desire to win and will never admit defeat. Even ten cows can't pull him back when his temper gets angry.
To convince Chu Xuanxuan Zheng'er, it is no less difficult than stepping on the left foot and the right foot to reach the sky.
However, this young man whose biggest prefix for attending the banquet was "the eldest lady's appointed boyfriend" did it in just one game of chess.
After realizing this fact, everyone couldn't help but start to re-examine him as a whole.
From "a handsome young entrepreneurial guy", he has successfully transformed into "he really has a certain quality that makes Miss Chu fall in love".
This development was somewhat beyond Miss Chu's expectations. She didn't think so much when she first planned the Go game.
"Chu Xuanxuan, why don't you roll around?"
Chu Qingmian knelt down and touched his head, and asked curiously.
"Well, sister Xiaomian, can I play chess with him again in the future?"
Chu Xuanxuan curled his lips, ignored her teasing topic, and asked instead.
"You have to ask him this question."
Chu Qingmian turned her head to look at Su Chengyi and bent her beautiful eyes.
Chu Xuanxuan clenched his fists and asked in a tone of despair:
"Can I still play chess with you in the future?"
"Okay."
Su Chengyi held his chin up and replied calmly.
Chu Xuanxuan breathed a sigh of relief. He actually didn't have high hopes for asking this question. After all, he had spoken arrogantly to him before and had such a bad attitude.
Unexpectedly, such a tense game of chess would have such a warm and beautiful ending of the classic "making dumplings". Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, with happy and touched smiles on their faces.
However, the next second, Su Chengyi slowly added:
"However, if it continues like today, there will be no need."
Everyone: "."
But Chu Xuanxuan stood still and said seriously:
"Okay, Master!"
When Butler Han came up to collect the chessboard, he felt very incredible.
The famous little demon king of the Chu family seemed to be wearing a tight spell. He stood aside honestly and acted as if he was only following Su Cheng's orders.
Unless Su Chengyi used some magic spell or gave him a high-concentration ecstasy soup, it would be difficult to explain the current situation.
But when he saw the endgame on the chessboard, Butler Han suddenly understood.
Good guy, this Young Master Su must have killed him without mercy, leaving nothing behind, so that the little devil had no other choice but to fall to the ground and admit defeat.
However, when it is the first time to formally meet the parents, is it not a bit bad to not give the younger generation face?
Also, this Young Master Su is good at everything, and his brain is smart enough to apply for World Heritage protection, but his emotional intelligence is somewhat lacking, and he doesn't pay attention to interpersonal communication at all, and has no intention of cooperating.
As soon as Butler Han had this idea, he noticed the expressions of other elders around him.
No, they didn't seem to feel embarrassed. On the contrary, they all smiled slightly and seemed to be in a happy mood.
Butler Han thought about the reason and roughly figured it out.
Although Chu Xuanxuan is a smart child, he has an arrogant and violent temper. If this continues, he will definitely develop into a real demon king, and he may cause big trouble for the Chu family in the future.
For a long time, despite such risks, there really wasn't much anyone could do against him. After all, he was really smart and rarely got caught making mistakes.
The older generation of the Chu family often lamented that children as smart, well-behaved and sensible as Miss Chu are rare and rare.
Unexpectedly, Su Chengyi's visit today accidentally taught this boy a hard lesson for the Chu family.
Su Chengyi was not someone who would deliberately let off steam just because of "favors". He did not hold anything back in every move, which obviously made Chu Xuanxuan, a boy who had been pampered since childhood, see the cruelty of society.
Destroying his prestige earlier will naturally be beneficial to his future development, which is why the elders like to hear about it.
Thinking of this, Butler Han felt much calmer when he picked up the chessboard.
In this way, not only was Su Chengyi's impression score not deducted, but it should have increased a lot.
Although Master Su himself certainly didn't care about this, for bystanders like them who cared about their old father, this was naturally a good thing. Thinking of this, Butler Han felt very happy. He felt that it was the right time, right place and right people. He couldn't help but glance at Su Chengyi who was leaning on the sofa.
The latter happened to glance over, so the two looked at each other, and Su Chengyi nodded gently, as if to say hello.
Butler Han lowered his head and exhaled, then silently left with the chessboard in hand.
I don't know why, after "subduing" this naughty kid, Su Chengyi pulled away from the chess game, but he always felt that something was wrong.
Looking back carefully, it probably comes from the sentence of Grandpa Chu Qingmian:
"Mianmian has praised you in front of us a long time ago, and she praised you to the highest level."
"."
The more Su Chengyi thought about it, the more unsure he felt.
Judging from Miss Chu's filter on him, her grandfather's words must not be exaggerated.
This kind of praise is obviously not limited to the field of Go. He may have touched everything, including areas that he has only scratched the surface of.
If before this game of chess was played, the Chu family around them were only in a teasing and joking mood, after this game of chess was played, they would definitely start to believe Chu Qingmian's words.
That means——
"Xiao Su, do you want to know what Mianmian told us?"
Chu Qingmian's grandma said with a smile.
"Tell me about it?"
After a long while, Su Chengyi replied dryly.
"Grandma!"
Chu Qingmian hugged her grandma's arm and buried her face on her shoulder, feeling very shy.
"That's too much!"
Unexpectedly, before the grandma who raised this question could speak, the cousin on the other side suddenly interrupted:
"And I started saying it a long time ago~"
"A long time ago?"
Su Chengyi raised his eyebrows slightly and asked.
This is a bit unexpected. I originally thought that the eldest lady was just madly turning a deaf ear to everyone because of the meeting with her parents, so as to set the stage.
But if it was a long time ago, that would obviously not be the reason.
So what could be the reason?
"Sister!!"
Chu Qingmian said "Oh--" and wanted to cover her cousin's mouth as she tried to break the news.
"I agree, I agree. I have heard it since I was a child, and my ears are numb!"
The cousin added with a laugh while avoiding her.
"That's right. If you calculate carefully, it probably started in Mianmian Elementary School."
The cousin pushed up her glasses and agreed in the same way.
"Anyway, no matter how old I am, Sister Xiaomian has been talking about it for at least as long as I am."
The younger brothers and sisters all echoed.
Being stabbed in the back by her brothers and sisters, Chu Qingmian instantly understood what it meant to be "embattled on all sides".
Everyone rebelled and separated, and a generation of Western Chu overlords fell! ! !
Unexpectedly, the more difficult ones were yet to come, because the elders also joined the battlefield in time.
"Oh, this Xiao Su is the 'my classmate' that Mianmian talked about every day before?"
The aunt's eyes widened and she said in disbelief.
The aunt on the other side immediately answered with a smile:
"Isn't it? Looking at it this way, Mianmian is really not bragging. It's true."
After hearing a lot of talk from people around him, Su Chengyi couldn't help but be a little curious, so he tentatively asked:
"Excuse me, what exactly did she say?"
"That's a lot!"
The first person to answer the question was my cousin, who seemed to have a cheerful and outgoing personality. He leaned on the back of the sofa with a smile and exposed his sister's background without mercy.
"When we were young, we boys got together to play video games, spin yo-yos, etc. We disliked Mianmian for being young and dull, and refused to take her to play.
She squatted aside and watched for a while, and then said angrily, "What's so great about it? My classmate can also play this, he is much better than you!" Whether it's playing games or spinning a yo-yo, I'm better than you! Hahahahaha! ”
Speaking of this childhood incident, my cousin couldn't help laughing, causing the people next to him to laugh too.
"Ah, yes, I remember."
The cousin who shared the experience on the other side also stood up to testify. He nodded and recalled seriously:
"Also, when we went back to our hometown to worship our ancestors during the Chinese New Year, my uncle went fishing with my father and my cousin. I watched them not catching any fish for a long time, so I can seriously say that my classmates are better than you adults."< br>
"The same goes for when writing Mathematical Olympiad questions. When she encounters a question she doesn't know, Mianmian immediately closes the cap of her pen. She says it's okay and she can just ask her classmates when school starts. Her classmates will definitely know it."
< br>
"There is no need to talk about playing chess and writing. As soon as I mention it, it immediately becomes my classmate. Wow, it really makes Xiao Su become a chess master and a calligrapher."
Unexpectedly, even this old almanac was dug out. Miss Chu's face turned red with embarrassment, and she had obviously lost all her strength and means.
"Oh, you are really not allowed to say that."
In the end, she could only throw out such a weak protest.
Su Chengyi still maintained the same posture as before, holding his chin and listening with a slight smile.
In fact, judging by what everyone said, the two of them were not familiar with each other at that time. Unexpectedly, a certain eldest lady started talking about him in front of her family every day.
However, Su Chengyi couldn't remember when he played a game console or spun a yo-yo in front of Chu Qingmian. He occasionally played these games when he was a child, but not at school.
And he is not very good at fishing. It can be said that he only knows how to use a fishing rod. The few experiences he has caught fish can be regarded as what fishermen often call "newbie benefits".
Moreover, in the end, squad leader Chu didn't actually ask him about the Mathematical Olympiad question that no one knew how to calculate.
In addition, I have never played chess with her or written calligraphy for her.
So, how did the eldest lady talk about this to her family?
Is it really just a blind compliment that is given no matter what?
Su Chengyi raised his eyes and looked at Miss Chu who was collapsed next to him, trying to get an answer from her.
However, the eldest lady, who had lost all her strength and means, was covering her face in shame, and obviously did not have the energy or energy to answer his questions.
