"you you you!"

Jiang Ning was so angry that she pointed at Ye Tingchu and was speechless.

Before she could straighten out her tongue, her mother grabbed her ears.

"Jiang Ning! You're causing trouble right after returning to China! How dare you whip someone? What do you think this place is?!"

"No, Mom, listen to me! She's talking nonsense. It was Ye Kong who pulled me off the horse! He also hurt my hand!"

Mrs. Jiang's face changed, and before she could turn around to look at Ye Tingchu, she heard Mr. Ye's cold voice.

"That was just to scare you because I saw your bodyguard was right next to you. But you whipped her in the face directly. If I hadn't blocked it, did you want to ruin my sister's face?"

"I know my limits and won't really hit her... Ouch! Mom, be gentle!"

A common scene in wealthy families quickly unfolded at the scene, with parents apologizing to their children and other parents forgiving them with fake smiles.

The friendship between the ladies that had just been established was quickly broken.

The two ladies turned around with sullen faces and went to ask about their own children.

·

After listening to Ye Tingchu's story, Fang Siwan's eyes were cold: "I don't know what's wrong with this Jiang Ning. He didn't even recognize my Kong Kong, and he rushed up to bite me."

"Qin Ranqiu must have said something to her."

A small voice sounded from the side.

Fang Siwan looked in surprise and found that it was Ye Baozhu.

She continued to babble as if she hadn't noticed the gaze: "Third sister's reputation has become so bad recently, it's all her fault. I used to think she was a good person, but it turns out it was all fake."

After saying that, she took Fang Siwan's arm and pouted, "Mom, I will never play with her again, and the same goes for Jiang Ning..."

Fang Siwan looked at her for a while, patted her head, and smiled with difficulty to hide her joy: "It's really childish words, but seeing you stand on your sister's side, Mom is very happy."

"We are a family after all." Ye Baozhu said with her head down, somewhat embarrassed.

Fang Siwan laughed happily: "Let me see, my Baozhu really just went abroad, and didn't go somewhere to grow up five years older, right?"

"mom!"

-

While the mother and daughter were talking, Ye Tingchu was watching quietly beside them.

It was not until Fang Siwan let Ye Baozhu go play by herself and took her to apply medicine that she finally said, "Mom, what are you going to do?"

"What to do?"

"Ye Kong and Ye Baozhu."

"..." Fang Siwan paused and continued to clean her wound, "Don't you see that the situation is getting better and better? Baozhu is obviously willing to give in. Just now, she even stood on Kongkong's side and spoke with the attitude of one of her own."

"But Ye Kong doesn't care." Ye Tingchu held down her hand that had stopped again and repeated word by word, "You know, Ye Kong doesn't care."

"...Then what do you want me to do?" Fang Siwan suddenly raised her voice, and her eyes turned slightly red when she looked up.

"What if you had to choose one of them?"

"Choose one? Why should I choose one? One is the daughter I raised for twenty years and called me mom for twenty years, and the other is the daughter I carried for ten months and finally gave birth to but was separated from for twenty years. Both are my daughters, how can you let me choose?!"

Fang Siwan stood up suddenly: "I can't choose!"

She said: "Kong Kong's attitude gives me a headache, but it's not that I can't tolerate it, nor that I can't wait. When there is a conflict between two people, as long as one of them is willing to give in, they can always get along peacefully."

She closed her eyes and took a deep breath before sitting back down and continuing to bandage her: "As for what happens next, let time take its course."

"I don't believe that in ten or twenty years, Kong Kong will still hate Bao Zhu who calls her sister sweetly every day."

"..."

Ye Tingchu looked at her hand silently. The white bandages were wrapped around it in circles. The touch of the bandages occasionally rubbing against her skin reminded her of Ye Kong's hand that was pulled out from her palm.

"Ten or twenty years..."

After Fang Siwan left, she repeated it and then laughed inexplicably.

"Why didn't I realize before that mom is so naive."

She raised her head and looked at Fang Siwan's angry back: "You don't want to choose, but what if Ye Kong insists that you choose..."

"What would you do, Mom?"

·

"Wen Can didn't come today?"

"not coming."

"No wonder, it was Mr. Xiao Wen who brought Wen Lian here to show off."

Lin Xinzhou raised his chin towards a corner.

Ye Kong looked over there and locked onto the one who was the most popular person in the crowd.

"I heard that Mr. Xiao Wen wants to clarify the scandal between him and Qin Ranqiu today..." Zhou Song couldn't help laughing. "Just saying this makes me feel a little funny. Who would have thought that these two people could have a scandal?"

"Strictly speaking, it's not a scandal, just a marriage rumor."

Tu Wan said, buckled his gloves, stood up and said to Ye Kong: "Let's go and ride a horse."

"I won't. I won't go."

"We all know how to do it and can teach you."

"No." Ye Kong was very determined. "I hate sports, and it must be painful to fall off a horse."

"Then how dare you drag Jiang Ning down?" Lin Xinzhou complained to her, "You are so brave."

"Fortunately, she herself is too embarrassed to allow others to gossip about her." Zhou Song sighed, "After not seeing her for so many years, she is still so stubborn about saving face and suffering."

As they spoke, several people stood up and went to lead their horses.

Some of them were originally raised in this horse farm, and some were transported from other clubs.

In the end, only Ye Kong and Xu Yang were left at the seats.

Xu Yang was still indifferent to everything and just focused on playing chess. Ye Kong felt bored after sitting for a long time. He looked at Xu Yang's mobile phone and found that she was playing Gobang.

"Why don't you play Go anymore?"

Xu Yang looked up at her and said calmly, "You need to take a break once in a while."

"Take a break by playing Gobang?" Ye Kong smiled, "Then I'll accompany you to rest."

"Don't think Gobang is easy." Xu Yang frowned and looked at her, "Wei Zhiyu will lose to me within five minutes."

Ye Kong shrugged: "Let's try it. Maybe I have talent?"

"It's inconvenient to use a mobile phone." said Xu Yang.

Ye Kong looked around and said, "Then let's use branches on the ground. You use x and I use ○."

"Only elementary school students play like this." Xu Yang said this with dissatisfaction, but still got up with her to find branches.

·

So, while others were drinking, chatting, and riding horses, these two people were in the midst of the excitement. They squatted down on the sandy ground and started playing Gobang.

The chessboard was drawn by Ye Kong.

She didn't need a ruler or measure, she just drew straight lines and soon had a chessboard that was big enough for them to play for a long time.

"There's no need to draw it so big. It will be done in five minutes." Xu Yang said expressionlessly.

Ye Kong just smiled without saying anything, motioning for her to go first, but was rejected.

So Ye Kong drew an x ​​first.

Xu Yang followed suit and drew a circle.

The racecourse was dusty, the audience seats were noisy, and there was a smell of wine coming from the villa outside the racecourse.

The two of them just buried their heads and played in the sand for a long time.

After the first five minutes, Xu Yang looked up at Ye Kong and said, "You're pretty good at playing."

Ye Kong said nothing and slowly drew another x.

The second five minutes passed, and Xu Yang looked up at Ye Kong again: "You really have some talent."

Ye Kong still didn't speak.

The third five minutes passed and Xu Yang stopped talking. He just stared at the "chess pieces" that had already filled up half of the chessboard. He pondered for a while before drawing a circle.

Ye Kong was still as unhurried as before, making it hard to tell whether she had thought about it or not.

The fourth five minutes passed.

The fifth, the sixth...

Gradually, more and more people began to gather around them.

An hour later, Xu Yang, who was trying to move her body due to sore legs, sat down on the ground unsteadily. Only then did she realize that there were many people around her, and there were a lot of chattering and instructions from all sides, which was very noisy in her ears.

Xu Yang frowned subconsciously, looked up and wanted to scold the onlookers away, but inadvertently saw Ye Kong's face opposite him.

She had already sat cross-legged on the ground without knowing when.

She is now waiting for her next child.

The time was long, there was noise all around, and people were constantly gathering.

But she didn't look up, she didn't raise her eyes.

The whole person was motionless, expressionless, and his eyes were only on the "chessboard".

It was as if nothing could disturb her, nothing could enter her ears or catch her eyes.

The light from the sky penetrated the crowd and fell on her, like a cold and indifferent god sitting in the noisy world, unaware of the human voice.

"Not going down?"

There was a sound as cool as ice beads falling on a plate.

Xu Yang suddenly came back to her senses, but found that Ye Kong still didn't even look at her.

"……Down."

She held onto the branch, stared intently at the chessboard, and made her moves more carefully.

Outside the crowd, a man surrounded by people suddenly looked over here and asked, "Why are there so many people over there? What are they doing?"

Someone went to ask around and came back to tell him, "It seems like they are playing chess."

"Play chess?" The man raised his eyebrows and smiled gently, "Let's go and take a look."
