After rebirth, I was hugged and kissed by a crazy boss

Chapter 240: The face is not red but the heart is not beating

"Qingqing, I'm very sorry about your family's situation."

Tan Shun slowly opened his mouth.

"I have a close personal relationship with your father. He is a rare chess friend or rival of mine. Your chess style is quite similar to his. It's a pity that your father focuses on academic research and only plays chess as a hobby."

Although Yan Qing knew what he was planning, he couldn't help but stop.

"Join the Xuansu Chess Club, win the competition... everyone will remember your father's name."

Tan Xuan put his fingertips on the glasses on his nose and lifted them up.

"He taught you how to play chess himself. You never took a day's lesson anywhere else...right? Although I am the coach of Xuansu Chess Club, I won't take credit for it. After all, I can't be considered your teacher. At most, I am just a sparring partner."

He had already lowered his posture so low that he had almost no room to retreat.

The meaning of the words is very clear. If Yan Qing wins the game, all the credit and honor will go to Yan Qing and Yan Sichen.

"Uncle Tan, why?"

Yan Qing tilted his head and shrugged with a half-smile.

"Why is it so?"

Tan Shun lowered his head, hiding his dejected expression:

"Because the next game is very important... we must not lose."

Yan Qing curled his lips, still with an indifferent expression:

"So, you just asked me to come and make up the numbers?"

"No," Tan Falcon shook his head, a rational light flashing in his eyes, "I want to bet on you."

"?" Yan Qing raised his eyebrows.

"You are very strong and your chess style is unique, which is rarely seen in the competition."

Tan Shun raised his glasses out of habit.

"Besides, you haven't participated in a large-scale competition for a long time, so your opponents won't be able to find enough information to study you. If you are willing to join, you can serve as a surprise force. No matter how others perform, at least you are sure of your chances."

Yan Qing was silent.

"We can negotiate the conditions."

Tan Shun curled his lips and smiled.

"I don't think Qingqing would ask for things that Uncle Tan can't do."

As soon as the words were spoken, the room suddenly fell silent.

After a long time, Yan Qing spoke sullenly:

"I don't want to. But I can share my father's chess record with you. If you win with it, just mention my father when you receive the award."

She knew clearly what the important game that Tan Xuan was talking about was that must not be lost.

Since this is a matter of China's dignity, it's no wonder that Tan Xuan humbled himself and came to her in person.

When Tan Xuan saw Yan Qing give in, he felt there was hope.

"Qingqing, even if there are chess manuals, we still need excellent chess players."

With hope in his eyes, he kept persuading her.

"You know, once a chess player's style is formed, it is very difficult to change it in a short period of time... Even if they have chess records, they can't reach your level, and it may even be counterproductive and affect their own performance."

Yan Qing pursed her lips, she knew that what Tan Xuan said was right.

"You clearly have the ability to stop it...are you going to just watch us lose?"

Yan Qing was startled, and suddenly sneered:

"Uncle Tan, I hate moral blackmail the most. Giving you my father's chess records is already my biggest concession. I hope you won't push it any further."

Tan Xuan obviously didn't expect her to react like this, and his expression froze for a moment.

After a few seconds, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief:

"Qingqing, why? I remember when you were less than 18 years old, you insisted on joining the chess club. Why are you resisting so much now?"

Yan Qing looked up at the ceiling, resisting the urge to get angry:

"Because I'm married. My husband doesn't want me to show my face outside."

She finally discovered that Tan Jun liked to talk about the same things over and over again and was unwilling to face the problems within the chess club.

Then she was too lazy to bother with it, so don't ask, the only thing she knew was that they were married.

"puff--"

"Cough cough cough..."

Tan Xuan's expression was relatively calm, but Deng Huai and Lu Ziyu were not.

One of them was spitting out saliva, and the other was choked by something and kept coughing.

"Yes, it is like that."

Yan Qing nodded to himself.

"There are a lot of things going on at home. I'm very busy."

Tan Xuan smiled with difficulty, "I didn't expect Qingqing to be married...Uncle Tan didn't even have any news."

"Oh, we're secretly married, most people don't know."

Yan Qing lies without blushing or beating her heart.

"I am currently a housewife. I don't earn any money and I rely entirely on my husband for support... Of course I can't go against his wishes."

The corners of Tan Xuan's mouth twitched, and his expression was extremely tense.

"That's it anyway."

Yan Qing nodded again, seeming to agree with this statement, and even couldn't help but add drama to himself,

"You know, my family has all passed away, and my biggest support right now is my spouse...if he doesn't want me anymore, will you support me, Uncle Tan?"

Tan Xuan took a deep breath and tried to figure out how much truth there was in her words.

“Also, the pressure of the competition is too great.”

Yan Qing shrugged.

"My physical and mental state are not up to the task. Moreover, we are trying to have a baby recently and don't have time to take care of anything else."

She then chuckled:

"Uncle Tan, you don't know, his family has been a single-line family for three generations, and it's very feudal... I have to have a child while I'm still young and healthy. Only if I give birth to a son can I have that kind of family status."

"Otherwise, even if he goes out to find another woman and have children, how can I control it? My parents-in-law will have a problem with me."

Not to mention Tan Xuan, even Deng Huai couldn't hold it anymore.

When it comes to telling lies without thinking, no one can beat him.

"...Qingqing, this is not what you really mean."

Tan Shun bit his lower lip.

"Why don't you tell me what you really think?"

Yan Qing finally laughed, even though he was angry.

She turned her eyes and looked at Tan Xuan mockingly:

"Uncle Tan, you must have forgotten that you were just fooling me. Why, do you want to talk about your true thoughts now?"

Yan Qing's words were like a knife, stabbing straight into people's hearts.

"Now that you've said that, let me talk about my true thoughts... Then I'll tell you clearly now that Shaoyu's matter has never passed in my heart."

She raised her eyebrows, her eyes were cold and sharp.

"I just don't believe you don't know anything about what happened four years ago! I can't stay in the same community with a murderer... Either she or I, either me or she!"

Seeing that Tan Xuan didn't say anything, Yan Qing smiled provocatively.

"I even suspect that you were also involved and became an accomplice in his death!"

As soon as these fatal words came out, Tan Xuan could no longer sit still.

"Qingqing, I can swear on my character and life that I have no idea about Ren Shaoyu's affairs—"

"But you still recruited Yunyue in!"

Yan Qing said sternly, his voice was particularly harsh in the confined space.

"Do you really have a clear conscience?"

At this point, there is no possibility of whitewashing the situation.

Tan Xuan's face turned ugly.

After a long time, he slowly spoke:

"Many things are beyond my control. All I can do is to do my best within the scope of my authority."

"That's your business."

Yan Qing took a few deep breaths to calm himself down.

"Uncle Tan, you shouldn't have come to see me. At least two years ago, if I didn't participate in the Yi Xin Cup, you should have understood that I would not join the club."

Tan Shun remained silent and said nothing.

Two years ago, he had specifically looked for Yan Sichen and asked about Yan Qing's registration.

However, Yan Sichen said that Yan Qing's fingers were injured while playing the violin at the coming-of-age ceremony and he was sent abroad for treatment.

Tan Shun originally wanted to say that such an injury would not affect his chess playing...

However, Yan Sichen looked very worried and said he could not accept his daughter becoming disabled.

Helpless, Tan Xuan had to give up.

"Uncle Tan, you know very well what the problem is with the Xuansu Chess Club."

Yan Qing's words were not pleasant to hear.

"I advise you that it is better to remove the fuel from the cauldron than to try to stop the boiling water from boiling. In the long run, it is better to lose a few important games..."

"It will save some people from treating Xuansu Chess Club as a place to gild themselves, and all the people who come to run it are rubbish."

She was too lazy to talk any more and simply turned around and walked out.

"Senior!"

Lu Ziyu hurriedly tried to stop him.

"It's rare for us to be together, I ordered a meal outside--"

"Step aside!"

Yan Qing looked extremely angry. She even pushed Lu Ziyu hard, but her force was too small and the latter just staggered.

She pushed Lu Ziyu aside and walked out the door. Deng Huai hurriedly followed.

"Senior, please wait a moment!"

Lu Ziyu refused to give up and followed closely behind.

"I...I still have something to tell you!"

Yan Qing suddenly stopped and turned around with a bad expression——

"Are you also trying to use moral blackmail? Or do you want to threaten me?"

Lu Ziyu was stunned and waved his hand a little awkwardly.

"No, Senior, it's not about the chess game."

He swallowed hard.

"I...feel very sorry."

"?"

Yan Qing couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"Senior, it's actually hard for me to imagine that your partner would be someone like that."

When the road is blocked, I grit my teeth and make up my mind.

"If you really love someone, shouldn't you help her shine? Instead of tying you down at home with housework and nonexistent children. If he really loves you, how could he make you feel that he would go out and find another woman? Senior sister, how could you allow yourself to be bound? I almost don't recognize you anymore."

Yan Qing was completely speechless.

She began to wonder what Lu Ziyu had just heard in the chess and card club.

Tan Xuan knew that this was all bullshit;

But he actually took it seriously and foolishly chased her out to reason with her.

"so what?"

Yan Qing showed a half-smile, determined to get through this calf to the end.

"This is the life I chose, why do you care about me?"

Lu Ziyu's chest was blocked by a breath, and he was almost suffocating. He couldn't speak for a long time.

"Oh, mind your own business."

I don't know whether this sentence refers to his meddling in her marriage or to her secretly meeting Tan Xuan there.

"Senior, I know your family is in trouble and you feel bad... but you can't just hastily find a man to marry just to find someone to rely on!"

Lu Ziyu's speech speed is like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.

"The man at the hot pot restaurant last time was your husband, right? He is indeed very good-looking and seems to have good conditions... but is he really suitable for you? And is the family environment of three generations of only one son really friendly to you?"

Yan Qing showed a meaningful expression.

"Senior, you've been in poor health since the car accident, right?"

Lu Ziyu felt that he was both calm and crazy.

"Are you really suitable for childbearing at the moment? Even if you get pregnant, if this baby is not the boy they want, will you give up... or give birth to the baby, one baby after another, until you give birth to a boy?"

"Are you really planning for yourself?"

"..."

Yan Qing took a deep breath. She didn't expect Lu Ziyu to be so stubborn and wouldn't let go.

So stupid.

"Why don't you go back and ask Tan Xuan?"

After that, he turned around and left.

"Senior, I won't say any more!"

Lu Ziyu kept a distance from her and spoke sincerely.

"I really made an appointment with the members of the chess and card club to have dinner together. Are you really unwilling to go? Everyone misses you very much..."

It would have been fine if he didn't mention the chess and card club, but as soon as he mentioned Yan Qing, his anger rose sharply.

"Lu Ziyu, have you ever heard the story of the boy who cried wolf? You have already used this excuse to deceive me once, I won't be fooled again!"

"No, Senior Sister, Coach Tan is my fault,"

Lu Ziyu was a little incoherent.

"But this time it's real! I really called all those senior brothers and sisters here..."

Deng Huai frowned, considering whether to use force to expel this little fool.

Several people have already walked onto the tree-lined avenue, and Yan Qing plans to look for Gu Qingyan and Jia Jia.

The college students coming and going on the roadside basically all knew Lu Ziyu.

The number one candidate for the student union president, even if you have no intersection with him, you will always feel familiar with him.

He was always calm and steady, but he was actually pestering a girl...

At this moment, many people around were looking at him, full of gossip.

The torrent that gathered from all directions rushed towards Yan Qing without hesitation.

She suddenly felt as if she were back at the auction house, being watched and commented on unscrupulously.

Those curious, inquisitive, and even somewhat malicious gazes were like thorns in the back. The feeling of uneasiness climbed up the spine, making Yan Qing feel extremely uncomfortable.

She subconsciously shrank her neck, trying to avoid the invisible pressure... However, the discomfort became more and more intense, to the point where a dense layer of goose bumps appeared on her arms.

"Stay away from me, I don't want to be on the headlines of the forum!"

Yan Qing's tone was unusually fierce.

"Don't follow me! Otherwise I will be rude!"

Lu Ziyu was stunned and stood there, with a look of frustration and hurt in his eyes.

Yan Qing glanced at him again, then quickly turned and left.

……

"Miss Yan, are you okay?"

Deng Huai kindly asked,

"Why don't you take a break? You look a little tired."

"Huh," Yan Qing bent down and supported his knees with his hands, "You're right, I'm so angry."

Regardless of the dirt and cold, she sat down on the steps by the roadside.

He muttered to himself, "What bad luck! I will never believe this guy again!"

As if remembering something, he quickly called Deng Huai.

"We just need to know about what happened between Tan Xuan and Lu Zi. Don't tell Jia Jia and the others. When we meet her later... we just need to be happy."

Deng Huai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Don't worry, I'm fine. But... do you want to rest for a while?"

"no need."

Yan Qing smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"I'm just a little annoyed. I feel like University A is starting to get on bad terms with me...every time they come here, nothing good happens."
