[Soul of Chess] What if

A light?

After walking out of the Internet cafe, Ah Guang didn't know why, and kept standing there motionless.Seeing this, Zuo Wei couldn't help but speak out in confusion.

But Aguang didn't respond to this.

He just stared at a certain place in a daze.

What made Ah Guang so focused?Zuo Wei couldn't help but looked in the direction of Ah Guang's line of sight curiously.

I saw there was a ramen shop.

The exterior of the store looks ordinary, no different from other ramen shops.Zuowei also didn't find anything particularly noteworthy around it.

What happened to that ramen shop?

Zuo Wei looked at A Guang, then at the ramen shop, but couldn't understand the reason for a long time.

Just when Zuo Wei was confused, he heard a "grunt" from Ah Guang's stomach.

Only then did Zuowei finally understand why Aguang kept staring at the ramen shop.

It turned out that Ah Guang was hungry. *^____^* Zuo Wei covered his lips and smiled secretly.

But why didn't Ah Guang go in?

Isn't he his favorite ramen?

Seeing Ah Guang's dazed appearance, Zuo Wei tilted his head in doubt.

Zuowei can still recall Aguang’s satisfied expression after eating ramen every time. It looks like a kitten who only eats and drinks enough. It’s really cute~(≧ω≦ )

Only at this time, Ah Guang will show his childish side.

It's just that Ah Guang hasn't been to a ramen shop in the past two months.

What's going on here?Zuo Wei rested his fan handle against his chin, and looked at Ah Guang beside him in puzzlement.

And this sudden sound made Ah Guang finally come back to his senses.

With great difficulty, he looked back and found that Zuo Wei was looking at him.

Ah Guang was a little puzzled at first, and then he suddenly realized—Zuo Wei must have heard the sound of his stomach! Σ(°△°|||)︴

Such recognition immediately made Ah Guang's cheeks turn red with embarrassment.

After seeing that Zuo Wei was still looking at him, Ah Guang couldn't help shouting angrily: What are you looking at, Zuo Wei!

He stomped his foot heavily, then walked quickly and angrily in the direction of home.

Zuo Wei watched Ah Guang's series of actions, and the smile on his face became more and more obvious.

Sure enough, Ah Guang should be more lively! (*≧▽≦)

After seeing Ah Guang walking away without looking back, Zuo Wei quickly put away his playful mood.

He followed, and asked very suspiciously: "Ah Guang, are you going to go home directly?"

Of course.Because of Zuo Wei's actions just now, Ah Guang felt that his young heart had been seriously hurt, so he responded angrily.

Aren't you going to eat ramen?Hearing Ah Guang's answer, Zuo Wei was even more puzzled.

Just now, Ah Guang looked at the ramen shop so intently that he didn't even hear his own voice. He looked like he really wanted to go in. Could it be that he was thinking wrong?

don't go.Aang replied quickly.

But your stomach is already growling...

Before Zuo Wei finished speaking, Ah Guang interrupted impatiently: Zuo Wei, stop talking!If I say no, I will not go!

Seeing this, Zuowei stopped talking.

He lowered his head and carefully observed Ah Guang's expression.

A light.

After a pause, Zuowei calmly recited Aguang's name.

Hearing Zuo Wei's voice, Ah Guang reluctantly stopped.

what?Ah Guang turned sideways and asked in a somewhat bad tone.

Let's go eat ramen.Zuo Wei said so in a calm tone.

At this moment, the expression on Zuo Wei's face made people feel incomprehensible.

It's not the usual cheerful and playful appearance, nor is it the serious and even sharp-edged appearance when playing chess.

His expression looked very calm.However, Ah Guang always felt that there seemed to be something hidden behind that calmness.Zuowei like this always feels a little strange.

It's like... suddenly becoming an adult...

Although, Zuo Wei is an adult...

Seeing Zuowei like this, Aguang felt flustered for no reason.

I can't say no!He yelled, trying to hide his uneasiness.

Ah Guang, you are trying to save money, right?Zuo Wei stated slowly.

certainly not!I just... I just don't want to eat it!Yes, that's it!I've eaten ramen so many times, I'm tired of it!Saying this, Ah Guang nodded affirmatively, as if he wanted to increase his persuasiveness.

Zuo Wei was not at all moved by Ah Guang's pretended calmness, but continued: You are saving money so that I can play online Go a few more times, right?

Hearing Zuo Wei's words, Ah Guang couldn't help but fell silent.

Seeing Ah Guang's silent appearance, Zuo Wei only felt mixed feelings in his heart.

Ah Guangming likes ramen the most, why hasn't he been to a ramen shop for so long?

Ah Guangming wanted to go in very much, and even lingered at the door for a long time, why didn't he go in in the end?

Ah Guangming was already very hungry, why didn't he go to buy something to eat, but chose to hurry home instead?

……

Yes, I should have thought of it long ago.

The reason Ah Guang did this was because he wanted to save money.So even if he feels hungry again, even if he wants to eat again, he is reluctant to spend a penny.

And almost all of the pocket money Ah Guang accumulated was used to let him play online Go.

In other words, the reason why he is like this is actually all for himself.

And in order to alleviate the uneasiness in his heart, he said that he no longer likes to eat ramen, so he seemed a little impatient because he couldn't find a suitable excuse when he asked.

No wonder he put away the pocket money carefully every time he got it.

No wonder he never bought anything.

If it weren't for the conversation with that Zelda today, Ah Guang ended much later than usual, and I might not have realized what Ah Guang has paid for himself for so long.

It's not that he doesn't have what he wants, and it's not that he doesn't have what he wants to eat. He does that only for himself.

He just told some clumsy lies, and he just used some unskillful techniques to cover them up.

It was such a simple disguise, but I believed it to be true, and didn't go into it at all. Even for such a long time, Ah Guang just silently paid for himself...

Hikari, let's eat ramen.

Zuo Wei watched Ah Guang quietly: It was already late when he got home.You are a child growing up.So let's go.

But... Ah Guang looked a little struggling.

Zuo Wei continued to explain in a soft voice: I don't necessarily have to play chess on the Internet.Playing with Aguang, playing with people in the Go classroom, or playing chess on the Internet, these are actually not much different to me.After all, as long as I can continue playing chess, I am already very satisfied.

Hikari, thank you for what you did for me.That's enough.Finally, Sato said with a smile.

Seeing Zuo Wei's smile, Ah Guang couldn't help feeling a little lost.

That smile is full of love and affection, just looking at it makes people feel sore and swollen in the heart, and it seems that even the eye sockets are a little wet.

It was the first time I saw such a smile.

Ah Guang felt as if he was being bewitched, and nodded slightly.

Then he felt Zuowei gently holding him, and walked step by step towards the ramen shop that he had been staring at for a long time.

They sat down in a secluded corner.

Zuowei let go of his hands only after the ramen was served.

Perhaps it was because the mist in the ramen was too thick. In the dense water vapor, Ah Guang seemed to see many transparent water droplets falling into the bowl.

He sniffed and finally picked up the chopsticks.

Mmm... delicious.

This might be the best ramen I've ever eaten... Ah Guang thought silently while chewing.

Zuo Wei has been by A Guang's side.

Seeing Aguang's tears that kept falling, Zuowei's heart became softer and softer.

Ah Guang must have worked very hard these days...

Obviously such an immature child...

Ah Guang, I'm sorry... I didn't realize it earlier, and let you bear everything silently for such a long time...

From now on, you won't be allowed to face it alone again.

Ah Guang, thank you.

Thank you for everything you do for me.

Ah Guang, it's really great to meet you...

Ah Guang held the noodle bowl and did not put it down until he drank the last drop of soup in the bowl.

It's really nostalgic... It's been a long time since I had such a familiar taste.

Sure enough, ramen is the most delicious food in the world!Ah Guang couldn't help showing a satisfied smile.

After noticing Zuo Wei's gaze, Ah Guang couldn't help but blush.His dry explanation: I'm just too hungry... I don't think it's particularly delicious...

Zuo Wei did not point out this lie full of loopholes: Then, let's go home.

Um!Ah Guang stood up while responding, ready to pay.

At this moment, the sound of conversation in the store came to Ah Guang's ears.

"Please deliver the food." The boss at the counter said to the clerk.

"Okay!" The clerk responded immediately, "Send it to the chess club in the back, right?"

Chess Club?

After hearing this word, Ah Guang was a little surprised.

He has been playing online Go here for two months, and he is fairly familiar with this area.However, I haven't seen a chess club around me?

"There is a very good primary school student in the chess club there." Another voice sounded.

Aguang and Zuowei immediately turned their attention to that person.

It was an ordinary middle-aged man.He was wearing a light pink Western-style suit, but no tie, and he was unshaven.

The man was sitting at the counter, adding condiments to the ramen and chatting with the boss.

"Oh? Is that so—" The boss was cooking the noodles in the pot.After hearing the guest's voice, he echoed casually.

"I heard that I only started studying in the first year of junior high school this spring." The man continued without paying attention, "I played chess with him once, and I couldn't beat him at all."

"Are you too weak? Hahaha!" The boss smiled heartily.

They continued to chat about something, but Ah Guang didn't continue to listen.

An elementary school student who is about to enter the first year of junior high school, and adults can't beat him?

What kind of person will he be?
