Du Qingchen said: "Thank you, I will come again tomorrow."
"It's up to you. It's your choice. How you go is your right."
Zhao Si began to close the stall.
Du Qingchen was stunned: "Aren't you going to set up a stall?"
"Can't you see it's getting dark soon?"
When I looked up, sure enough, the sky was getting dark.
Du Qingchen sent Zhao Si off respectfully: "Senior, have a good trip. Do you need me to cook for you?"
Waving his hand, Zhao Si said without looking back: "Eating people is soft-spoken, and taking advantage of others is short-handed. People should know when to stop and don't be too greedy. I can't give you anything."
Du Qingchen's little thoughts were seen through by Zhao Si, and he was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to answer.
The second day, the third day, the fourth day...
For five consecutive days, Du Qingchen still lost every day and never won once.
Zhao Si did not allow Du Qingchen to go to his house again. Even when Du Qingchen took the initiative to go there once, he was kicked out.
The relationship between the two seems to have returned to the way it was when they first met.
This made Du Qingchen dumbfounded.
Zhao Si is really a weirdo.
Suzaku did not appear again, and I don't know if she has broken through now or if something happened.
Du Qingchen didn't dare to think about it because he was afraid that these things would affect his mentality.
He just wants to learn chess quietly now.
Zhao Si's chess skills were so high that Du Qingchen often felt speechless.
He obviously felt that his chess skills had improved, but every time he felt complacent, he would be tortured like a dog by Zhao Si.
Only then did he realize that Zhao Si's chess skills were truly unfathomable, as if he could never see the bottom.
But now, he is still riding a tiger and cannot get off, so he can only immerse himself in studying hard.
He didn't know what level he was at now, but he knew that he was still weak compared to Zhao Si.
If it were before, he would never believe that there were still people who tortured him like a dog in chess, but the facts were in front of him, and he couldn't tolerate disbelief.
As time passed day by day, Du Qingchen's mood gradually became worse.
But on this day, when he received a call from Qing Yi, he almost collapsed.
Zheng Shuang's condition is getting worse day by day. Now he is in a state of madness and his mind is completely unclear.
It is estimated that if he is not treated, he will never have a chance again.
That afternoon, after hanging up the phone, he sent a message to Myolie, and soon the two met.
In the recent period, although the relationship between Du Qingchen and Zhao Si has remained the same and there has been no progress, his relationship with Xing'er has become better and better, and the two have become good friends.
"Why do you suddenly want to treat me to dinner?"
Xing'er asked curiously.
Arriving at the place where the two had their first meal, Du Qingchen ordered a few dishes, sighed, and said, "Maybe after tomorrow, I will return to the capital."
"Why?"
Xing'er was stunned.
Du Qingchen said: "I have a friend who is about to die now."
He didn't hide it.
Xing'er frowned: "Do you want to ask my teacher to save your friend?"
"Yes."
"Is your friend a boy or a girl?"
"Female."
"oh."
Du Qingchen added: "She is my apprentice."
Xing'er raised her head and asked curiously: "What did she learn from you?"
"Learn to practice."
Xing'er was not surprised at all and said: "Okay, I understand, then are you leaving tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?"
"I've booked a flight for tomorrow night."
"That means this is the last time you treat me to dinner after leaving Qingyuan City?" Xing'er said with a smile.
Du Qingchen smiled and said: "It's okay. If you have a chance to come to the capital in the future, I'll treat you well and I can be a free tour guide to take you around. Don't you have my contact information? I'll give it to you when you get to the capital.
I call."
"This is what you said, you can't go back on it."
"Okay, definitely."
"Then tonight, I have to give you a good meal, and I want to add some vegetables." Xing'er said mischievously.
Du Qingchen smiled and said: "You can add as much as you like, you can't eat me up anyway."
As expected, Xing'er added two dishes.
After dinner, the two of them walked back slowly and sent Xing'er to the teahouse. Du Qingchen was about to say goodbye and leave.
Myolie suddenly said: "Will you go and bid farewell to my teacher tomorrow?"
"Of course."
"Okay, then you should go to bed early. You will have one last chance to challenge my teacher tomorrow. You should have a good rest. There may be a miracle tomorrow. Don't give up so soon." Myolie said with a smile.
Du Qingchen didn't think much and said: "Okay."
Back at the hotel, Du Qingchen didn't sleep well all night.
Early the next morning, he bought some gifts and came to Zhao Si's residence.
This time, Zhao Si did not chase him away. He opened the door and saw that a chess game had been set up inside.
"Senior Zhao, today may be the last time I ask you for advice. My flight tonight will be back to Beijing."
Du Qingchen said calmly.
Zhao Si could see that Du Qingchen was upset and obviously had something on his mind. He asked: "Your friend can't be saved either?"
"You are right, maybe this is her destiny, I have tried my best."
Du Qingchen sighed.
He was sure that he could not influence Zhao Si, and he had no intention of influencing the latter.
Zhao Si is really a master, but also a weirdo.
In front of him, Du Qingchen didn't dare to play any tricks. It was meaningless and could only increase the other party's resentment, because with Zhao Si's life experience, he might have lived for thousands of years, and he had never seen anyone.
Come on, no one can see through it.
"It's good if you can look away. However, I have asked Xing'er to go shopping for groceries. Let's play two games first. Then you can cook and have a meal before leaving."
Zhao Si called Du Qingchen like a servant. Listening to his tone, asking Du Qingchen to cook a meal for him seemed like a great reward.
Du Qingchen didn't think much and readily agreed.
Even if Zhao Si doesn't help him save Zheng Shuang, he still respects Zhao Si very much.
When he came to this world, he rarely had respect for anyone, but he really admired Zhao Si. The only person in this world who could crush him in all aspects of music, chess, calligraphy, painting, and chess was Zhao Si.
What's more, Zhao Si helped him improve his soul and was half his teacher.
Cooking a meal for the teacher is what you should do.
After two games of chess were played, Du Qingchen was defeated.
When my mind is no longer here, my natural level has seriously declined.
Zhao Si had no expression.
Du Qingchen laid out the chess pieces and was about to start when Zhao Si said, "Go and steam the rice."
"Myolie hasn't bought the vegetables yet."
"She has bought it back."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. Du Qingchen opened the door and saw that it was Xing'er as expected.
Du Qingchen went into the kitchen to cook obediently, and Xing'er acted as his assistant. It could be seen that Xing'er was quite happy today, and she kept chatting with Du Qingchen about some topics about the capital.
It's just that Du Qingchen's heart has returned to the capital and his ambition is no longer here, so he didn't respond to her word by word.
The lunch was very sumptuous. Xing'er and Zhao Si both ate a lot, but Du Qingchen had no appetite and put down his chopsticks after only a few bites.
After dinner, Du Qingchen went to wash the dishes, and Zhao Si didn't stop him.
After cleaning up the kitchen, Du Qingchen was ready to say goodbye and leave.
"There is one game at the end. Are you really not ready to play another game?"
Zhao Si asked.
Du Qingchen smiled bitterly and said: "It's a loss anyway."
"Then there has to be a beginning and an end. Come on, Brother Du."
Myolie pulled Du Qingchen over to sit down and encouraged him: "You have to work harder."
