Chapter 26: Two out of three
Twenty minutes later, Rui Zhao’s home.
Rui Guoquan greeted the two groups of guests who arrived at the same time and sat down on the edge of the sofa, his face still a little embarrassed.
The reason is very simple. After he received calls from Yu Qingguang and Lei Jingming yesterday, he did not inform them that the other party would come to visit today - objectively speaking, this was quite rude.
Originally, he planned to wait for the two of them to arrive one after another and then explain separately to make the atmosphere more relaxed, but this time, it still made him a little embarrassed.
But then I thought, today's communication is related to my daughter's future, so what does it mean if I lose some etiquette and face!
At this moment, Li Xinyin brought tea. Rui Guoquan cleared his throat and introduced:
"Ah, everyone, this is my lover Li Xinyin. Wife, these two are the two people I used to talk to. The Lei Jingming 9th Dan and Yu Qingguang 9th Dan you mentioned..."
After the two sides smiled and greeted each other, Lei and Yu also introduced their companions this time.
Everything is normal for Qin Xiaoxue. There is nothing surprising about Lei Jingming and his wife coming to visit him.
But this is different for Yu Qingguang.
“Ah, Mr. Lei, Ms. Li, this is the top female chess player in our Go world and one of the famous women’s doubles, Zou Yang 8th Dan!
“She The grade score is currently ranked first among women in the country, and she is also my former student! "
"Ah! "Rui Guoquan looked a little surprised when he heard this.
Although he had not heard of Zou Yang's reputation before, since his thoughts were slightly disturbed the night before yesterday, Rui Guoquan had been talking about it almost every time he had time in the past two days. Search online to learn about professional Go
The level score of Go can be roughly thought of as similar to the ladder rankings of some video games, and its ranking is basically highly related to strength.
And Zouyang is temporarily ranked first among women in the country in terms of Go rating. Even if she is not the first woman, she is still a strong contender for the first among women!
Although Zou Yang's Duan and Ga positions are not as good as those of Lei Jingming and Yu Qingguang, in terms of whether they are busy or not, they are far from comparable to the latter two.
Although Lei and Yu were brilliant in the past, they are basically in a semi-retired state now, and there are not so many things to do.
But Zou Yang is a top player in her playing years. Even if she is only a woman, various things such as competitions, practicing chess, attending events, etc. all require time, and she cannot just take a day to waste it.
As a result, Yu Qingguang came to visit today and actually directly brought such a person over, which is enough to show the importance he attaches to him.
As expected, before Rui Guoquan’s next reaction, Yu Qingguang continued:
“Well...Mr. Rui! In fact, I wanted to come to visit yesterday, but unfortunately you two happened to be out. . Your love’s talent the day before yesterday left a profound impression on me, which I have never seen before!
“As a Go teacher with long-term teaching experience, and also a veteran of professional Go, When I see such talented people, I naturally fall in love with them. Although your wife is bound to succeed in any industry with her intelligence, I still dare to ask you to see if I can bring your talent to the world of Go.
“Although I, Yu, am not talented, I pride myself on being good at Go training. If you leave your daughter to me, I will definitely make your daughter a professional chess player, and even become the next generation of Chinese players. A leader in the women's Go world..."
"Mr. Rui, don't listen to his nonsense!"
Before Qingguang finished speaking, Lei Jingming on the side spoke hurriedly.
“You have to know that Rui Zhao is already at a decent professional level now, and he is considered a strong player even in low-level professions! How can he be so good at teaching!
"And you may not know that he always held a ninth-dan title, but now he can face it! If he really had to play against Rui Zhao first, he would probably fall over frequently, so how could he have the nerve to teach her!
“But I’m different! I’m still active in the front line of the game, and I’ve always played in the siege. I still have two brushes, which can ensure that Rui Zhao can have a higher quality of play...”< br>
"You've been a substitute for ten thousand years and you still have the nerve to carry the armor!"
Originally, Yu Qingguang's tone was gentle and smooth, but he stopped when he heard that his harmful friend was so unwilling to save him face:
"In the past three years, you and I have only played one game of chess together in Weijia. In that game, you begged Lao Shang to help you realize your dream of father and son being on the same stage in Weijia. The relationship that was thus smoothed allowed you to play three games. "Taiwan, the result is that your market collapsed in less than an hour!"
Lei Jingming blushed, veins on his forehead popped out, and argued:
"Loss!" A son can’t be considered a loser! Can a loser be considered a loser if he loses his own son?”
Then there were some unintelligible words, such as "The wealth should not go to outsiders", "He still has to call me dad if I lose", etc., which made everyone fall silent, and the air inside and outside the living room was filled with embarrassment.
"Husband, Mr. Rui already understands what you mean, so don't say anything anymore!"
Seeing that her husband was too embarrassing and conspicuous, Qin Xiaoxue immediately reached out and lifted the back collar of her husband's suit.
Lei Jingming, who was originally very excited, suddenly calmed down like a domestic cat that was picked up by the neck. He was so frightened that he did not dare to make any move. This skill of controlling his husband could not be seen. Zou Yang was amazed. Seeing that her husband still cherishes his life, Qin Xiaoxue naturally took over the conversation without hesitation:
"Ah, I'm sorry, Mr. Rui and Ms. Li, for making you laugh! My husband really wants to accept your daughter as a student!
"You know, my son is also pretty good at Go. He is very talented, so even ordinary children who want to be my husband’s students would not be impressed by him.
“But this time I met your daughter by chance. When he came back, he discussed the matter with me anxiously, saying how great your daughter was and that she would become a great person in the future, so I would like to invite you two Can you understand his excitement?"
"Your son?" Rui Guoquan has not yet made up for his knowledge of Go.
“My son’s name is Lei Qi, have you heard of him?”
"Oh! Isn't this the one who won the world championship at the beginning of the year? He is young and handsome, what a talent!"
This finally came within Rui Guoquan's knowledge, and he immediately marveled.
"He, he is actually your child?!"
He has intensively searched for relevant content in the Go world in the past two days. He did not find out who Lei Qi's father is. , but now Lei Qi's popularity in the Go world is unparalleled, and he even has the potential to overtake Lin Ruixin, the number one player in the country. Rui Guoquan knows such a reputation anyway.
“Thank you for your compliments, I have looked a little better after raising it for so many years.”
Qin Xiaoxue lowered her tone and said politely, but Lei Jingming on the side was beaming with joy, and secretly rolled his eyes at Yu Qingguang triumphantly.
Yu Qingguang was not willing to accept this anger and immediately retaliate:
“Hey, this kid Lei Qi is really awesome, but it’s a pity that Lao Lei is not very capable of teaching him. He is only seven years old. I honestly sent it to Chairman Shang. I remember that when I sent Lei Qi to Dajing City, Xiaoxue cried so hard..."
Qin Xiaoxue's face remained calm and calm. He replied: "Yes, I regret it now. They are both world champions. I think my husband is no worse than Chairman Shang! Why was it so time-consuming and laborious in the first place to send Lei Qi to Dajing? I can't teach him well. Okay!”
Yu Qingguang couldn’t help but twitching: “The number of world champions is one to seven. Isn’t this worse than Chairman Shang?”
"The strength is no worse than Chairman Shang, it's just bad luck!" Qin Xiaoxue was unmoved at all: "If you don't believe it, let's call Chairman Shang over next time and see if he can beat Lao Lei?"
< br>This remark made Yu Qingguang unable to say a word: He also knew that Shang Chaotian would really not be able to gain favor from Lei Jingming if he was to fight in front of everyone.
Cut!
Lao Lei is stupid and reckless, why is it so difficult to deal with even marrying a wife and having a son!
Well, I don’t have to fight to win today...
Yu Qingguang had a thought in his mind and was thinking about how to find words to gain respect for himself. But at this moment, Rui Guoquan saw that the two sides were becoming increasingly tit-for-tat, and Yu Qingguang was a little embarrassed to step down, so he took the initiative to smooth things over.
"Okay! I also know that both of you are like the Beidou in the Go world. Today, thanks to the favor of the two of you, you are willing to accept your little girl as your student. I am also afraid!
"But in the final analysis, this matter is a big deal for my family. We need to listen to the opinions of our children, and we as husband and wife also need to discuss it carefully.
"I think it's better for me to call my daughter out, let's sit down together and have a good chat, and see which school my daughter would rather learn from!"
Li Xinyin sat down when she heard this. I couldn't help it: "Ah?! Guoquan, you..."
"...Ah, of course, if my little girl has other ideas, I can only ask for your forgiveness!"
Rui Guoquan quickly reconciled - he didn't want to argue with his wife in front of the guests for a long time about his daughter's future. Which way should we go?
Everyone nodded, and Rui Guoquan stood up and walked towards his daughter's room at the back. He stood up and apologized:
"That's right! I forgot to say sorry to you all! I should have asked my daughter to come out to welcome the distinguished guests as soon as possible, but last night she played three games of chess and lost two. She was in a very low mood. She didn’t come out this morning, so I didn’t force her..."
"Huh?" These words suddenly made Yu Qingguang feel strange: "Lost two out of three sets? Who is she playing against?"
"I don't know who I downloaded it with..." Rui Guoquan shook his head slightly: "After all, I downloaded it online! I just used the account you gave me the night before yesterday..."
"...Huh?!"×2< br>
As soon as Rui Guoquan finished speaking, the two Jiuduan people in the room made confused sounds in unison.
