Chapter 294: Chapter 294: Come into My Heart, or I’ll Come for You 8
However, no treasure can buy a lady’s laughter, as long as Ning Xixi is happy, he is happy.
Pride? Oh, what is pride? In front of their wives, Ji Family members have always dismissed it.
In the study, incense was lit, and in the light, swirling smoke, Ji Yebai multitasked, recalling a childhood chess game.
During that game, Little Xixi was about to lose, so she pitifully asked him, "Is it okay if you move here?"
Little Yebai frowned, "Why should I move there?"
Little Xixi, with an innocent face, "If you don’t move there, how can I win?"
Little Yebai, "..."
He silently regretted a move and placed the piece where Little Xixi had pointed. Little Xixi immediately smiled like a sunflower, leaving Little Yebai stunned.
At that time, Ji Yebai did not yet realize that his concession to her would turn from a moment into a lifetime.
The game ended, and Ning Xixi won a glorious victory, her face full of smiles.
Coincidentally, Grandfather Ji entered the study, saw her happiness, and upon looking at the chessboard, smiled and praised, "Xixi won! Well done!"
"Um, Grandpa, you’re here." Ning Xixi greeted obediently, and Grandfather Ji was in a great mood, "Come, keep me company for a game, the old man!"
Ning Xixi was a bit nervous. Grandfather Ji was famously good at chess. Would she lose badly /(ㄒoㄒ)/~~
But she couldn’t refuse a senior’s request and could only nervously join the game.
Still, she played the white pieces, and Grandfather Ji played the black pieces.
Just a few minutes into the game, Ning Xixi already had a terrible headache.
While she was struggling to decide, Ji Yebai’s big hand covered hers, whispering in her ear, "Move here."
"Ah? Oh..."
Grandfather Ji glanced at the two with a sly smile, "Oh, my Grandson and his wife are so lovely~"
As a trendy, modern grandfather, how could he not assist?
Afterward, his moves became increasingly profound and tricky, and Ning Xixi naturally couldn’t outplay him. Ji Yebai helped her make several moves and finally took over himself.
Watching Ji Yebai contest Grandfather Ji, Ning Xixi realized that he had always been letting her win...
When the last black piece was placed, Ji Yebai stopped moving.
Ning Xixi nervously whispered, "What’s wrong? Are we going to lose?"
Ji Yebai, tapping his slender, fair fingers on the table, smirked, "Kiss me and give me some motivation."
"What are you doing at this time? Stop being naughty!"
"Are you going to kiss me? If not, I’ll just admit defeat."
Of course, Ning Xixi did not want to lose. She glanced at Grandfather Ji, who, coughing, looked away as she quickly planted a light kiss on Ji Yebai’s cheek.
Ji Yebai smiled, and Grandfather Ji stroking his beard, also covertly smiled.
With that kiss, Ji Yebai concentrated deeply, each move thoughtfully placed.
Grandfather Ji also played strongly, and the two were stuck in a standoff.
Ning Xixi grew more tired as she watched, and eventually, she fell asleep on Ji Yebai’s lap.
Ji Yebai played chess with one hand and stroked her soft hair with the other.
Grandfather Ji cheerfully asked, "Should Grandpa let you win?"
"No need." Ji Yebai calmly made a move, "Grandpa, I won."
Grandfather Ji looked at the board, only then realizing he had fallen into a trap set by Ji Yebai!
"You little rascal... nicely done!"
"If my wife wants me to win, naturally—I won’t lose."
