Chapter 17
"Xuan 'er…!"
Just as Lin Xuan and Lin Liya were fooling around, a woman with a scarf around her waist walked over and shouted in surprise.
Hearing this voice, Lin Xuan and Lin Liya hurriedly stopped playing and looked over.
This was a woman with an extraordinary temperament. Although she was over fifty years old, time had not treated her cruelly. At least, there were few wrinkles on her face.
Her!
It was Lin Xuan's mother, Ruan Xiaoyue, who was also the deputy director of the Cultural Bureau.
"Mom, I'm back!" Lin Xuan grinned at the latter. His smile was very natural, the kind that came from the bottom of his heart.
This kind of blood and flesh kinship was so wonderful, but also so heartwarming.
"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back. Let Mom take a look. Aiyo, why did you lose so much weight and even turn tanned!”
Ruan Xiaoyue quickly walked in front of Lin Xuan and pulled him to look left and right with a pained expression.
"Mom, isn't Little Xuan going to join the army? It's normal for him to be a little thinner. Besides, haven't you noticed that this kid has become a lot stronger?”Lin Liya held Ruan Xiaoyue's arm and smiled coquettishly.
"Hey, which mother wants her child to suffer? Your father has been a soldier for most of his life. Don't tell me your mother doesn't know how hard it is!”Ruan Xiaoyue lovingly scratched Lin Liya's nose and smiled.
"Mom, why is there a burning smell?”
Suddenly, Lin Xuan smelled a burning smell in the air and could not help but look at Ruan Xiaoyue in confusion.
"Ah! I forgot, ginger sauce duck. Aiyo, my ginger sauce duck is burnt!”
Hearing Lin Xuan's words, Ruan Xiaoyue exclaimed. Then, she could not care less about the joy of Lin Xuan's return and hurriedly ran towards the kitchen, leaving Lin Xuan and Lin Liya looking at each other.
"My confused mother!" The two of them said in unison.
"Let's go. Grandpa and Dad are upstairs! They were all very happy to know that you were back.”Lin Liya held Lin Xuan's arm and smiled intimately.
Lin Xuan nodded, and the two of them quickly walked to the second floor.
A moment later, Lin Xuan and the others arrived on the second floor.
Coincidentally, he saw his grandfather and father sitting opposite each other by the sandalwood table and chair on the second floor. There was a chessboard between them.
It was the extremely difficult game of Go.
This was one of the old man's hobbies. He liked to play Go.
According to him, Go was like a battle. From encirclement to counter-encirclement, it contained countless military principles.
"Shh!"
Lin Liya gestured to Lin Xuan to keep quiet and then pulled him over on tiptoe.
Immediately, Lin Xuan saw the chess game on the table.
The old man's black chess pieces had already surrounded the white chess pieces and were nibbling away at the remaining white chess pieces step by step.
Although Lin Xuan did not know much about Go.
But he also knew that if this continued, his father would probably lose in a moment.
"Congratulations to the host for learning the game technique and instantly reaching the maximum level!”
Just as Lin Xuan was thinking about his father's next move, a clear voice suddenly sounded in his mind again.
At the same time, a huge amount of memory fragments surged into his mind, recording some of the Go skills and moves.
In just an instant, when Lin Xuan looked at the chess game again, he suddenly became enlightened.
The old man's white chess piece indeed had the absolute upper hand, but the black chess piece did not have the slightest chance of winning.
"I'm not coming anymore. I lose every time!"
However, what shocked Lin Xuan was that his father, Lin Tian, did not continue and admitted defeat.
"You brat, you haven't even finished playing and you're already not playing. What's this?”Lin Yao's beard curled up as he glared at Lin Tian and scolded.
"No, Dad, I can't leave at all. Your Dragon Trap has eaten my dragon head and dragon claws. What can I do to resist?”Lin Tian said helplessly with a bitter face.
"En…that's true!"
Hearing this, Lin Yao thought for a moment and nodded." Alright, I'll let you off this time!”
"Aiyo, Xuan 'er is back!"
After coming back to his senses, Lin Yao realized that Lin Xuan and Lin Liya had arrived. He looked at Lin Xuan and smiled kindly.
There was more kindness in his smile and less sternness!
"Old man! Little old man!" Lin Xuan hurriedly greeted.
" Huh???"
Hearing Lin Xuan's address, Lin Yao and Lin Tian glared at each other.
"Cough cough, a slip of the tongue, a pure slip of the tongue!”
Lin Xuan quickly waved his hand and said,"Grandpa, Dad!"”
"Little brat, don't think that I won't dare to hit you just because you've become a soldier. Let me tell you, even if I'm unhappy, I'll still hit you!”Lin Yao glared at Lin Xuan and said in a loud voice.
His words also made Lin Tian's face bitter, but he did not dare to refute.
After all, just as Lin Yao had said, not to mention Lin Xuan, this little brat, even if it was him, if he made a mistake, the old man would still take action directly.
He had no choice. Who asked him to be his father!
"Don't be like your dad in the future. You lose every time you play Go!”Lin Yao continued.
"Dad!" Lin Tian wanted to cry.
He suddenly realized that after Lin Xuan returned, although he had diverted the old master's attention away, he was still in a daze.
However, it seemed that as long as they criticized Lin Xuan, they would bring him along.
"Come on, look at you!"
"Old man…Grandpa, actually, my dad might not lose this round!”Lin Xuan's eyes rolled and he suddenly thought of a good idea. He opened his mouth and smiled.
"Hey, you brat, are you doubting my chess skills?”Before Lin Yao could say anything, Lin Tian glared at Lin Xuan and berated him.
"Hey, you brat, I haven't even said anything yet, why are you interrupting!”Lin Yao slapped Lin Tian's shoulder and reprimanded.
"Dad, I... I'm teaching Xuan 'er a lesson. Didn't you say that children can't be spoiled?”
"Who said he doted on her? It was a good thing that Xuan 'er had objections. If he had objections, he had to raise them!”
As Lin Yao spoke, he looked at Lin Xuan and asked with a kind smile," Xuan 'er, come, don't worry about your father. Tell me why you think your father might not lose this round?”
"Grandpa, if you agree to one condition of mine, I'll tell you the reason!”A crafty expression flashed in Lin Xuan's eyes as he smiled.
"Good boy, you even dare to keep your grandfather in suspense!”
"I don't dare, I don't dare!"
"Alright, tell me, what are your conditions?”
"Can you call me old man in the future? I always felt that it would be more intimate that way!”Lin Xuan chuckled.
"What the f * ck…! Fine, I've lived for so long, why would I care about a title!”Lin Yao originally wanted to reprimand Lin Xuan, but his curiosity was piqued by Lin Xuan's words. He was itching to know how Lin Xuan would break his Dragon Trap, so he gritted his teeth and agreed.
