Chapter 116 Handicap
Playing the lyre, quietly listening to the cold wind in the pines. Although the ancient tunes are loved, many people today don’t play them.
The door of the piano room was open, and the elegant sound of the piano flowed freely in the air. The rhythm was a little faster, and it seemed that there was a golden horse hidden in the strings.
Yu Jiashu heard the music played by Weilan Dan.
He thought that it was probably because of the arrangement of the music at the New Year's Eve party that she played "Guan Shan Yue" on a whim.
Yu Jiashu's heart trembled when he heard this, and he almost wanted to walk towards the piano room uncontrollably.
It's a pity that Wei Sheng didn't give him such a chance. He still didn't even want to talk to him. He took him to the tea room next door with a cold face, more than polite but not close enough.
This tea room has a whole floor-to-ceiling window. At this time, the doors and windows are wide open, and the fresh air outside and the sunshine after the rain are scattered on the tatami floor.
Wei Sheng didn't really want to bring Yu Jiashu to have tea. There was a solid wooden Go board and two soft cushions placed near the window.
The wind blows in the garden, the light falls on the chessboard, and the sound of the piano hits the ears, easily creating an elegant atmosphere.
Yu Jiashu saw Wei Sheng's intention and felt relieved.
"Can you play chess?" Wei Sheng took the seat first, and at the same time reached out and pushed the chess piece with the black stones over, as if he was sure that Yu Jiashu would not refuse.
In fact, Yu Jiashu cannot and will not shirk it.
"If you don't play well, please bear with me, Uncle Sheng." He sat down opposite Wei Sheng, holding the black chess piece with his long white fingers. The collision between black and white was very valuable to appreciate.
Of course Wei Sheng also knew that this boy was good-looking.
He couldn't help but look at Yu Jiashu twice, but he was wondering in his heart, could he use this face to deceive his daughter?
The rules of modern Go have always been that black stones go first, black moves first, white moves later, and the moves are made alternately.
Wei Sheng is an elder after all. Although he doesn't know Yu Jiashu's Go level, he doesn't want to take advantage of him.
Yu Jiashu understands this very well.
He learned it from the old man. Mr. Yu has outstanding chess skills and has been deliberately training him since he was a child. Yu Jiashu has always been very interested in traditional culture and studied seriously. As long as he is not against chess players with a junior high school level 6 or above, the chance of winning is almost absolute.
of.
But because his opponent was his future father-in-law, Yu Jiashu had to consider his face and not lose too obviously.
So he dealt with it carefully, fearing that Wei Sheng would notice something wrong.
You must know that winning chess is easy, but losing without leaving any trace takes a lot of effort.
Fortunately, this is not too difficult for Yu Jiashu.
It's just that they had been playing chess for a long time, and until the sound of the piano gradually stopped, neither of them could tell the winner.
Aunt Lan came in and handed over tea once. She notified Gao Zhixin, but gave up because she didn't get any reply.
She also forgot to tell Wei Lan and went to the kitchen to help prepare lunch.
So Wei Lan didn't know anything about it. If she hadn't accidentally glanced in when she came out of the piano room and passed by the tea room, she wouldn't have known they were hiding here playing chess.
Wei Lan can play chess, but she is a real bad chess player and was always disliked by Gao Zheng.
Speaking of which, Wei Sheng was interested in Go because of Gao Zheng.
After all, he didn't know the music, so he could only work hard at chess. As a result, after such hard work, he never failed. Even though Gao Zheng said he had no talent, he persisted.
Yu Jiashu noticed Wei Lan immediately, but he couldn't speak, so he could only smile at him silently.
Wei Lan calmed down and walked up to them curiously.
"Have you finished practicing?" After Wei Sheng fell, he had time to care about Wei Lan.
"Yeah." Wei Lan nodded obediently.
No matter how bad her chess skills were, she could still tell who had the upper hand. She thought Yu Jiashu was outstanding at chess, but she found out that he was somewhat inferior to Wei Sheng. However, he looked relaxed and didn't seem to be worried about the chess game at all.
of.
Wei Sheng didn't say much to Wei Lan either.
Just when he was nervous, when he realized that Yu Jiashu had not discovered his trap, he proudly raised his eyebrows, pursued the victory, and quickly secured the victory.
Yu Jiashu was serious about losing chess, and in the end he only lost one and a half glances.
It was just like this that Wei Sheng was able to praise him more, "It's a good move."
"Compared to Uncle Sheng, I'm so far behind." Yu Jiashu immediately put on an attitude of being open-minded and willing to be taught, as if he really admired Wei Sheng's chess skills.
Even Wei Lan didn't notice that Yu Jiashu was acting.
When she saw that they were getting along so well, the stone in her heart dropped.
Wei Sheng has not been so happy for a long time. If Gao Zhixin hadn't urged him to start dinner, he would have wanted to fight Yu Jiashu again.
"I'll ask Uncle Sheng for advice next time I have a chance." Yu Jiashu said with a smile.
"Okay." Wei Sheng was overjoyed. He patted Yu Jiashu on the shoulder and agreed without hesitation.
Yu Jiashu also breathed a sigh of relief and followed Wei Sheng out of the tea room.
"You...couldn't you be doing this on purpose?" Wei Lan could slow down her steps, move closer to Yu Jiashu and ask in a low voice. She didn't think anything of it at first, but she saw him repeatedly praising Wei Sheng and putting him down.
After that, I gradually felt that something was not quite right.
Wei Lan didn't speak too clearly, but it was enough for Yu Jiashu to understand what she meant.
He curled up the corners of his lips, took the opportunity to grab her little hand, and rubbed the back of her hand with his fingers. He didn't say a word, but it was as if he had run out of words.
"..." Wei Lan felt like she had accidentally discovered the truth.
Thinking of her father's smiling face, she would not and could not bear to tell him the truth.
"What are you doing standing still? Why don't you come over to eat?" Wei Sheng looked back and saw them standing motionless, and couldn't help but remind them.
"It's coming." Wei Lan retracted her hand and raised her feet to catch up with Wei Sheng.
Yu Jiashu followed closely behind.
He looked at the exceptionally warm family in front of him, his amber eyes filled with starlight.
They had quite a pleasant meal.
Gao Zhixin is not like Wei Sheng, and his attitude towards Yu Jiashu is not much different from before. Because Wei Sheng has just won the chess game, his attitude towards Yu Jiashu is not as sinister as before, and the atmosphere is harmonious.
Wei Lan never thought that Yu Jiashu would win over her father just by losing a game of chess. While she was happy for him, she didn't know why she disliked Wei Sheng.
Of course, Wei Sheng didn't know this. Gao Zheng was coming over in two days, so he was even more looking forward to playing against him.
Yu Jiashu didn't know that Wei Sheng would have such overestimating thoughts. If he had known, he would probably regret what he did today.
What if Wei Sheng knew that he was deliberately giving in to him and became angry?
