Yu Zhiyi was muttering in his mind that Xie You was ignorant and lacked eyesight.

Suddenly—

The old man next to her suddenly slapped her thigh.

"Miao, this move of yours is really wonderful." Mr. Jiang looked at Xie Youshi with admiration and surprise, "Boy, how brave are you? Do you dare to bet on this?"

Yu Zhiyi was a little stunned: "..."

Why is grandpa still so happy after losing chess?

Xie Youshi smiled and said, "There is nothing I can do. Your chess style is too fierce. It is difficult for this junior to resist, so I can only take the wrong approach."

"Interesting, playing chess with your boy is really interesting."

Although there are many chess masters around Mr. Jiang, those chess players are either aggressive in attack, or they are cautious and disciplined in defense. Basically, as soon as those people sit down, the old man knows how to deal with them.

This was the first time he had encountered an opponent like Xie Youshi who had strange and elusive moves, was bold in his moves and loved to take surprises.

After Jiang Penghai finished his work and went downstairs, he saw the old man chatting happily with Xie Youshi, as if they had been friends for years. He couldn't help but feel a sinking heart and walked over immediately.

"Dad, it's getting late, it's time for you to rest."

The old man waved his hand nonchalantly, "It's okay, I'm happy today, it's okay to sleep later."

"By the way, kid, speaking of tactics, I have a chess game here. I have been thinking about it for several days but I still can't find a way to solve it. Just in time, will you give me some advice?"

"Oh?" Xie Youshi looked very interested, "What kind of chess game can stump a master like you?"

"This is it, keep an eye on it."

The old man immediately started playing with the chessboard, not even looking at Jiang Penghai's livid face the whole time.

Jiang Penghai didn't dare to say anything about his father, so he could only cast his eye on Yu Zhiyi, and he pulled Yu Zhiyi aside.

"Didn't I tell you to get rid of him after eating? Why is he still here?"

Yu Zhiyi spread his hands with an innocent look on his face, "Uncle, you saw it too. It's not that I won't let him go, but that grandpa wants to keep him to play chess. So what can I do?"

"you--"

Jiang Penghai was choked, and finally said with a straight face, "I don't care, he must leave after this round. Don't hang around in front of the old man."

"Humph, don't think that just because he can make the old man happy by playing chess, our family will recognize him. Let me tell you, that's because the old man doesn't know about his bad things yet. If he knows, be the first to rush He's out."

If it weren't for the fear that telling this matter would irritate the old man, Jiang Penghai would have told the truth early in the morning so that this kid could get out.

"Okay, okay, I understand. I'm standing here looking for opportunities."

Yu Zhiyi was afraid that he would really tell the truth when he was angry, so she quickly gave him some relief and coaxed him, "Calm down, it's our old man's birthday today, we can't be angry."

"Hmph." Jiang Penghai stretched out his hand and poked her forehead, saying dissatisfiedly, "The daughter who gets married has her heart for others."

"No way." Yu Zhiyi bent his eyes and smiled sweetly, "My heart has always been in the Jiang family."

She was coaxing people here, and Xie Youshi over there had already started studying the chess game with the old man.

"...My old friend said that this can be called a dead end, but I always feel that there is a solution." When the old man looked at Xie You, he looked expectantly, "What do you think?"

Xie Youshi frowned slightly, his thoughtful gaze fell on the chess game, and he muttered, "I have some ideas...but...it still takes some time."

When he heard that he had an idea, the old man's eyes lit up, "It doesn't matter, just think about it slowly."

After he finished speaking, Xie Youshi's cell phone suddenly rang.

"Sorry." Xie Youshi asked politely, "Do you mind if I answer the phone?"

The old man raised his hand in a gesture of invitation.

Xie Youshi sat still and pressed the answer button, "Hello... what? The room is not available? What's going on... There are no hotels nearby? Well, let me know if there is any news."

When the old man saw him hanging up the phone, he frowned in difficulty and couldn't help but ask, "Did something happen?"

Xie Youshi smiled sheepishly, "It's okay, my assistant is not familiar with Tan City, and there was a slight problem with arranging a place for me to stay tonight. Now I have to find a new place to live."

The old man immediately said, "This matter is easy to handle. I have many guest rooms in my house. If you don't mind, you can stay at my house."

Finally, someone said he could help him figure out the chess game. He wished that Xie Youshi could stay up all night.

Xie Youshi looked at him with a flattered face, "Of course I don't dislike it, junior, but...if I stay overnight, will it disturb you?"

"Why bother?"

The old man waved his hand and said, "It's settled, you will live in my house."

"Okay, thank you."

Yu Zhiyi and Jiang Penghai, who were standing a little further away, heard their conversation and their eyes widened at the same time.

The former is a surprise, the latter is a shock.

"Dad, your arrangement is inappropriate."

Jiang Penghai quickly stepped forward in an attempt to stop him.

"What's inappropriate?" The old man pointed to the red sandalwood chess set on the table, "They gave me such a valuable gift, why can't I still entertain them as a landlord?"

"That's not what I meant, it's just..."

"Okay." The old man interrupted his son and ordered, "Go and ask Mother He to clean up a guest room for Mr. Xie."

Jiang Penghai did not dare to go against his father's wishes, so he glanced at Xie Youshi with resentment, and finally had no choice but to make arrangements in despair.

"Come on, Mr. Xie, let's continue."

Xie Youshi smiled and said, "Old man, just call me Ah Shi from now on."

"Okay, okay." The old man nodded and his attention fell on the chessboard again.

Yu Zhiyi looked over and happened to meet Xie You's eyes when he raised his eyes to look at her. The man raised his eyebrows at her slyly.

"..."

Yu Zhiyi realized instantly that this was all his plan.

With Yang Jin's ability to do things, how could he book a hotel for a business trip?

What a cunning fox.

She cursed in her heart.

But when she thought of Jiang Penghai's unhappy look just now, Yu Zhiyi was afraid that he would get into trouble with Xie You in the guest room, so he quickly turned around and followed him.

Around ten o'clock in the evening.

Yu Zhiyi was afraid that having too much contact with Xie You at home would arouse suspicion, so she did not go downstairs again and went back to her room.

As soon as she returned to the room, she sent a message to Xie Youshi:

[Your guest room has been tidied up. 】

[I went to my brother's room to spy on the military situation. He is busy with work and probably won't have time to step out of the room tonight. 】

So Yu Nanfeng didn't have time to embarrass Xie Youshi tonight.

[As for uncle, I asked my aunt to pester him to act in the room tonight, and he won’t bother you. Just stay down and rest peacefully tonight. 】

After waiting for more than ten minutes to see Xie You, there was no reply. Thinking that he might still be playing chess with her grandpa, she didn't wait any longer.

I took my nightgown into the bathroom and took a shower.

When she came out of the shower, she heard a knock on the door.

Thinking it was He's mother delivering milk to her, she didn't think much and went directly to open the door.

As a result, as soon as the door opened, before she could even raise her eyes, a shadow loomed over her, and then her waist tightened and she was hugged back.

As the door slammed shut, the man's warm lips kissed her...
