Lin Chujiu originally planned to send Xiao Tianyao out of the capital and then came back. However, the carriage went all the way outside the capital. And Xiao Tianyao didn't stop it.
“Wangye, where is this going?” Lin Chujiu looked at Xiao Tianyao, who was sitting opposite him.
When Xiao Tianyao came up the carriage, he didn't sit on her side. Instead, he sat opposite of Lin Chujiu.
“When you get there, you'll know. Sleep for a while if you are tired.” Xiao Tianyao said and made a gesture for Lin Chujiu to sit on his side. Lin Chujiu silently looked at Xiao Tianyao’s long legs and shook her head: “I am not tired.” She was bored and she doesn't even know where they are going.
“Since you are not tired, you will accompany benwang to play a game." Xiao Tianyao took out the chessboard from the secret grid. Lin Chujiu's eyes widen in shock: "Why does every carriage have a chessboard?”
“Benwang let people put it, what? You don't like it?" Xiao Tianyao put the chessboard in front of Lin Chujiu: "Benwang will give you a chance ten times."
Xiao Tianyao didn't give Lin Chujiu a chance to refuse, and it will be for multiple rounds.
Lin Chujiu said with a bitter look in the face. “Even if you give me chance one hundred times, I can't win."
“Useless." Xiao Tianyao glared at Lin Chujiu and made a gesture for her to hurry.
“This has nothing to do with success, it's about strength." Lin Chujiu couldn't help but recall the words that Xiao Tiayao had said to her last time, and then put down a piece.
“You finally know you’re lacking in strength?" At least she has a bit self-awareness.
*Cough* Lin Chuji almost vomited blood.
She doesn’t mean that. Can't he stop being so heartless?
Why the hell did this man come back?
He didn't say a word of comfort. He didn't say a word of care. And now, he said she was stupid and incompetent.
Lin Chujiu gritted her teeth and took a piece, she carefully thought about things before she put it down.
Even if she loses, she can’t lose too badly.
Lin Chujiu, who was playing seriously, didn't see the smile on Xiao Tianyao's eyes never disappeared. If she saw this, she would definitely be more angry, after all… …
Xiao Tianyao was only playing with her.
The black and white pieces line one after one another. It was only the first round, but it hasn't been finished yet. However, Lin Chujiu find things getting more and more difficult.
Why she seemed to have no place to go?
Why she seemed to have only surrounded herself?
However, the person who was in more dilemma was Xiao Tianyao.
He tried his best not to use his brain.
He tried his best to compromise.
He can't give in anymore… …
Playing chess with an idiot can really drain one’s brain.
Xiao Tianyao felt like he was abusing himself.
Fortunately, the guard outside the carriage saved him. “Wangye, we're here.”
“Forget it!" As a result, Lin Chujiu opened her mouth first and went ahead of Xiao Tianyao. As if playing chess with Xiao Tianyao was hell, but God knows the person who suffered the most was Xiao Tianyao.
The two got off the carriage, Lin Chujiu was shocked when she saw the strange, but familiar scenery: "Why did you bring me here?"
There was nothing in the surrounding area, the road is very spacious and very few people come and go. It was obviously a daytime, but the temperature around was very low. Especially in the mountains not far away, it was as if the sun is not shining.
Yes, Xiao Tianyao brought Lin Chujiu to the tomb mountain, and the ancestral tomb of Meng Family was also here. Lin Chujiu was here not long ago, so she found this place very familiar.
“Benwang didn’t send Meng Laofuren before. Now that benwang is back, benwang will come to pay respect." Xiao Tianyao said and led Lin Chujiu to the tomb in front.
“Thank you… …” Lin Chujiu opened her mouth, but she was interrupted by Xiao Tianyao: “You and benwang are husband and wife, no need to thank benwang." As if he was speaking military task, people can't hear a trace of warmth in his words. Lin Chujiu doesn't know what to say, so she only kept silent.
