Both the challenge match and the final will be held in the capital, which saves trouble for Yuan Ning.Li Yanqiu is the team leader of the Capital Chess Association, he had heard about Yuan Ning and the Han family, and tacitly did not let Yuan Ning go to him during this time.When we met again, he carefully observed Yuan Ning, and found that Yuan Ning's expression was the same as usual, so he was relieved.

This child looks soft, but in fact he is very angry.Li Yanqiu greeted Yuan Ning with a smile, and Yuan Ning also obediently called "Senior Li". The relationship between the two was as usual, not too close, but not too distant either.

The Han family acted very quickly, within two days Yuan Ning heard the news that Han Sheng had entered the prison.Before Han Sheng reaches adulthood, he will serve his sentence separately from other prisoners, and the next sentence will be executed after he becomes an adult.This was just one of the actions of Mr. Han, and Yuan Ning would never have known about the other things if Zhang Xiuyan was not there.

Mr. Han is going to be serious, and he is going to use a knife on some members of the Han family.

In Yuan Ning's view, these have nothing to do with him.Since the Han family is willing to deal with it, and they have not vented their anger on Zhang Xiuyan and the Zhang family, they are not going to take care of matters related to the Han family.

As for Li Yanqiu, Yuan Ning also learned about his situation from Zhang Xiuyan.Li Yanqiu's mother is weak and sick, she shouldn't be pregnant with a child, but after she becomes pregnant with Li Yanqiu, she has to keep her alive.So after giving birth to Li Yanqiu, her health became even worse.

Later, because Li's father was spending time and drinking outside, Li's mother was depressed, and finally fell ill after Li's father's little lover came to the door, and he passed away not long after.Li Yanqiu was only ten years old at the time, and after learning that the little lover was pregnant with a child, he threatened and lured her to have an abortion.Li's father was trembling with anger, he pushed and beat Li Yanqiu on the spot.

The scar on Li Yanqiu's forehead was left at that time.

Li Yanqiu said word by word at that time: "If you go outside to get pregnant, I can get rid of one." She was somewhat afraid of Li Yanqiu.

It was difficult for Yuan Ning to connect Li Yanqiu with that past.But he knew that Zhang Xiuyan would not lie.

Is it because of the loss of his dearest mother and his irresponsible father that forced Li Yanqiu to become invincible?Recalling the time when Li Yanqiu got along with Han Chuang, Yuan Ning knew that Li Yanqiu really regarded Han Chuang as his younger brother.

For a person who was once trapped in that situation, even a little bit of goodness can make him cherish it very much.

Yuan Ning knew about Li Yanqiu's past, so she had less thoughts of alienating Li Yanqiu.Mr. Han probably doesn't love Li Yanqiu as much as the rumors say, right?Otherwise, Li Yanqiu would not have let Li Yanqiu face all that alone.

Yuan Ning withdrew his thoughts and walked into the competition field.

On the first day, lots were drawn, and Yuan Ning was assigned to No.12 group. There were a total of 32 contestants in each group who met the registration requirements, which meant that at least five contests were required to get a spot!

In the first match, Yuan Ning drew an opponent named Li Ping. The opponent happened to have a crew cut. He had an ordinary appearance, but his eyes were very bright.

Yuan Ning greeted Li Ping politely. Li Ping glanced at Yuan Ning and ignored him. He sat down and took a sip of water.Yuan Ning was taken aback, but didn't care.Powerful people are usually a little arrogant, that's normal!

When the game time came, Yuan Ning concentrated on playing.He gradually figured out Li Ping's level, and found that Li Ping was worse than Li Yanqiu, and it was easy for him to deal with it!Looks like it can be won!Yuan Ning thought in his heart, but Luozi was more cautious.

Beads of sweat oozed from Li Ping's forehead.Maybe the heating in the room is too high!Li Ping wiped his sweat with his hand, and counted secretly, he was already fifteen and a half eyes behind!

Unless Yuan Ning made a foolish move later, there was almost no possibility of him turning over!But Li Ping obviously felt that Yuan Ning's moves were calmer and sharper than at the beginning, and he didn't relax at all because of the lead, so he couldn't find a chance to save his face.

Li Ping surrendered.

Li Ping came from another place, and the team leader had been watching outside. He couldn't help being surprised to see Li Ping retreating every step of the way.Li Ping is a genius dug out by their Chess Association. He usually wins more and loses less in provincial games, and almost never loses. How could he lose to an unknown little baby?

Is that little doll 16 years old?

As soon as Li Ping came out, the team leader came forward and asked him if he was not performing properly.Li Ping, who was silent just now, finally said, "No."

The leader wanted to ask more questions, but Li Ping stopped talking.He definitely didn't perform abnormally just now, when he played against Yuan Ning, he could clearly feel the gap between himself and Yuan Ning.The young man's chess moves are flexible and changeable, but his mentality is cautious, forcing him to retreat again and again, completely powerless to parry!

Li Ping sat aside, continued to recall the chess game just now, and thought about where he should start his counterattack most appropriately.

At this time, there was a sudden commotion in front of the competition venue. It turned out that a player from the Li country came out, and several girls and reporters with cameras surrounded him.That contestant was also a young man, who looked younger than Yuan Ning, with the words "Cui Junxian" written on the sign hanging around his neck.

The little girls were very excited and chattered around Cui Junxian in Li Guo dialect, making Li Ping's brain ache from the noise.The two accompanying reporters took pictures of Cui Junxian, and then interviewed him about his thoughts on the game.Cui Junxian's hair was slightly curly, and he snapped his fingers, and the little girls fell silent.Only then did Cui Junxian answer the accompanying reporter's words.

The main idea of ​​the answer is that the first battle was very easy, and the opponent was completely powerless to fight back, and the next battle will definitely be very easy.Can I get a spot?Does that need to be said?His goal is not just a place, his goal is the sub-league championship!Originally, he could directly enter the final, but he still came to participate in the challenge, just to pass all the way and win the challenge from the challenge to the final!

Li Ping's forehead twitched when he heard it.Is this breath too loud?Sure enough, he is a half-grown child who doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth!

Choi Joon-hyun went to rest after the interview.

Out of curiosity, Li Ping went to borrow the game video to watch, and found that Cui Junxian was really good, no wonder he was a professional nine-dan in his teens!He compared the strength of Yuan Ning and Cui Junxian, and found that the two should be comparable.They are only fifteen or sixteen years old!What will they look like when they grow up?

For the first time, Li Ping felt the difficulty of going.He always felt that he was a great genius when he was competing in the province, but now it was only in the Asian League Challenge that he realized that he used to be a frog in a well, watching the sky from a well!

The competition ended one after another, and the second round began. On the first day, there were only two matches, and two groups of people were eliminated, leaving only eight people to enter the next three rounds.Li Ping was supposed to go back, but he didn't, and insisted on watching the game the next day.

Yuan Ning and Cui Junxian kept staggering with each other, and after the second day's game, they were left alone.

Yuan Ning competed for two consecutive days and was a little tired.The final round of competition will be held next weekend, and sixteen finalists will be determined at that time.The fourth round was over, and Yuan Ning had time to learn about the results of other groups.

Knowing that both Zhou Yulin and Hei Mian had entered the fifth round of the challenge, Yuan Ning happily congratulated them.Heimian said: "I was just lucky." The opponents he encountered were not very strong.

Zhou Yulin said: "Your opponent in the next round is not easy. I have watched videos of his games, and his chess moves are very unpredictable. I heard that he is the apprentice of the 'Ghost King'. You should pay attention."

Yuan Ning was taken aback and nodded.As soon as you hear the word "ghost king", you know what kind of person the other party is.This ghost king has a weird style, even Xiao Shengchang has suffered from him!

Hei Mian also looked at Yuan Ning worriedly.

Yuan Ning was very open-minded: "I participated in this challenge to improve my chess skills. Wouldn't I be happier if I could meet a strong opponent?"

Yuan Ning also wanted to win glory for his country in the Asian League, but he was just thinking about it. Zhou Yulin, Li Yanqiu, and Qiu Dong who returned from his travels with his predecessors, which one is not much better than him?Yuan Ning didn't feel too much pressure, so he wasn't nervous at all.

Zhou Yulin and Heimian felt relieved after hearing what Yuan Ning said.Yuan Ning is calm no matter whether he is leading or lagging behind, probably because of this mentality?

Hei Mian said, "You're right, just treat it as gaining experience."

The three of them were talking when they heard a commotion approaching from a distance.Yuan Ning was taken aback, he was no stranger to this battle, he must be the young genius Cui Junxian with a group of enthusiastic fans!

Yuan Ning looked up and saw Cui Junxian walking towards them.

After Cui Junxian approached, he stopped, looked at Yuan Ning carefully, and said in Li Guo's words, "You are Yuan Ning?" The translator Cui Junxian brought translated his words truthfully.

Yuan Ning nodded.

Cui Junxian said: "Next week I will beat you and get a spot! Of course, getting a spot is only the first step for me to enter the sub-league." He is my defeat."

Click click.

The accompanying reporters faithfully recorded Cui Junxian's haughty expressions and words.

Cui Junxian was obviously just here to say something, turned around and left without waiting for Yuan Ning and the others to respond, the girls who followed him were all speaking in Li Guo dialect, judging by the expressions of admiration, they must think Cui Junxian is very handsome!

When Cui Junxian and the little girls disappeared, Yuan Ning was still in a daze.At this moment, Li Yanqiu came over and talked about Cui Junxian's background to Yuan Ning: "His parents are both celebrities in Liguo. In recent years, influenced by the Americas, Liguo's entertainment industry has become more and more developed, and the discussion of celebrities has been rising steadily." This kid made his debut as a child star, and was later accepted as an apprentice by the ghost king. Every time he participated in a competition, there would be a lot of reports in the Li country, praising him more and more." Li Yanqiu paused, "But he is indeed talented. Otherwise, you won't be caught by the ghost king."

Yuan Ning said: "So that's the case!" He admired those little girls very much, and they were able to follow Cui Junxian to Huaguo to watch the game.Facing Li Yanqiu who had taught him for several months, Yuan Ning could no longer say that he didn't care about winning or losing. He seriously promised, "I will prepare well!"

Li Yanqiu knew Yuan Ning's character and didn't put pressure on him.He sent Yuan Ning back to school, while he went to the Han family.Mr. Han has been out these few days, so he asked them to go back and spend more time with Ms. Li.

Li Yanqiu told Ms. Li about Yuan Ning's competition.

Ms. Li was very interested: "Did you win? How did you win?"

Li Yanqiu said: "I won, this kid is very good, and his progress can be seen. Uncle Xiao beat his chest and stomped his feet after watching the video of the game, and said that he should not be given to me." Seeing Ms. Li listening attentively, Li Yanqiu said more some.

Ms. Li said: "Your grandpa has to go out next week. I want to go to relax. Why don't I go to the cultural center with you for a walk." After she finished speaking, she sighed, "I can't see. Will it bother you?"

Li Yanqiu was overjoyed: "How come? If you are willing to go out, I can accompany you wherever you want."

The one-week preparation time was not long or short, but it passed quietly unknowingly.

During this period, Li Yanqiu took Yuan Ning back to Li's house several times, and asked Mr. Li to give Yuan Ning advice.Mr. Li likes Yuan Ning who is full of spirituality very much, and he often asks Yuan Ning to come over every time he leaves, which makes Li Yanqiu jealous: "If others don't know, they will definitely think you are his grandson."

Yuan Ning smiled: "Brother Li, you often go home, Grandpa Li will naturally not be like this."

Li Yanqiu didn't really care, he told Yuan Ning that Ms. Li would go to watch the game.Yuan Ning thought of the kind and gentle Ms. Li, and said, "It's time to take Grandma Li out for more walks. She will be very lonely if she stays at home alone, and it will be even worse for her condition."

Li Yanqiu said: "Grandma still wants to treat you to a meal, so I apologize to you for Han Sheng's matter."

Yuan Ning was taken aback, and said: "That day my elder brother will come to watch my game, we made an appointment with someone to watch the stars at night, and my elder brother will join me when we have dinner."

"Then let's go together." Li Yanqiu said, "I heard that many people want to invite your elder brother to dinner, but they can't invite him to dinner. I wonder if I can invite him this time with your help?"

"This," Yuan Ning hesitated, "I have to ask my elder brother first."

"Having such an obedient younger brother as you, your elder brother is really enviable." Li Yanqiu said.

Yuan Ning was a little embarrassed.

Back to Zhang Xiuyan, Yuan Ning and Zhang Xiuyan talked about what Li Yanqiu had conveyed.Zhang Xiuyan said: "It's okay to go for a while." Although they didn't want to have too much contact with the Han family, they didn't want to have a meal.Hearing Yuan Ning talk about Ms. Li, Zhang Xiuyan can roughly guess what kind of loophole Han Sheng's family is taking advantage of.

It's not a bad thing that Ms. Li has a softer temperament. The bad thing is that she is the wife of the head of the Han family in the capital. Mr. Han loves her and respects her, but he doesn't know how to treat her well.How can a person like Mr. Han understand all the worries that Ms. Li hides?

Han Sheng's family must have seen that Mr. Han was difficult to get close to, so they started with Ms. Li and have been getting close to Ms. Li for more than ten years.In this way, there is no need for Mr. Han to appear, and outsiders will feel that Han Sheng's family has Mr. Han's approval.

So even if Han Sheng's father and the others were holding a chicken feather, others would regard the chicken feather as a command arrow given by Mr. Han!

The game is coming up the next day, so Zhang Xiuyan told Yuan Ning to go to bed early to refresh himself.Yuan Ning got into Zhang Xiuyan's bed and asked Zhang Xiuyan to sleep with him.The two fell asleep together, "in the dream" the wheat was fragrant, and it felt like it was about to be harvested again.Yuan Ning lay next to Zhang Xiuyan, eye-to-eye and nose-to-nose with Zhang Xiuyan. After a while, Yuan Ning said, "Brother, can you give me a kiss to cheer me up?"

Zhang Xiuyan: "..."

Zhang Xiuyan didn't move at all.

Yuan Ning made persistent efforts to shake Zhang Xiuyan's army's heart: "Why don't you wait until I win the big brother to kiss me?"

Zhang Xiuyan: "..."

Yuan Ning was disappointed: "Isn't it okay?"

"No." Zhang Xiuyan ruthlessly refused.

When Yuan Ning was about to rest in frustration, Zhang Xiuyan kissed him on the lips.

Yuan Ning blankly let Zhang Xiuyan wantonly plunder in his mouth.

Yuan Ning came back to his senses when his mouth was numb from the kiss, and his face turned red.Brother is getting worse and worse!It made his heart beat so fast every time!

Zhang Xiuyan said: "I never kiss you to encourage you or reward you." He looked deeply at Yuan Ning, "It's only because I want to kiss you."

Yuan Ning hugged Zhang Xiuyan with a blushing face: "Me too. But I always want to kiss my eldest brother."

Zhang Xiuyan stared at the head buried in his arms, and did not continue to answer.There's no one here, just the two of them and some animals, and no one will know what to do.

But it is precisely because of this that they have to restrain themselves.

Seeing that Zhang Xiuyan stopped talking, Yuan Ning calmed down obediently and rested in Zhang Xiuyan's arms.

Yuan Ning and Zhang Xiuyan both woke up early the next morning, perhaps because they were sleeping in the space, so they were in good spirits.Due to the venue conflict at the cultural center, the fifth round was scheduled for the afternoon.In the morning, Yuan Ning and Zhang Xiuyan went to the library to search for information. Zhang Xiuyan had to do business, and Yuan Ning wanted to learn about computers.

Professor Gan has already recommended him, and he will have the opportunity to participate in the electronic typesetting of "Ceramic Art" during the winter vacation or next semester!

The two of them spent a whole morning in the library, and both made half of their notebooks, which benefited a lot.Yuan Ning said: "I don't know if it's because of the spring water, but I feel like my memory is getting better and better."

Zhang Xiuyan glanced at him: "Anyone who goes through the content like you will remember it very well."

Yuan Ning: ..._(:з)∠)_

In the afternoon, Zhang Xiuyan borrowed the book and planned to read it while waiting for Yuan Ning to finish the game.

When Yuan Ning arrived at the competition venue, Cui Junxian had already arrived. Seeing that Yuan Ning was accompanied by someone, he couldn't help laughing and said, "So nervous that you want your family to accompany you?"

Yuan Ning was slightly surprised: "Is it because you are nervous that you want so many people to accompany you?"

Cui Junxian: "..."

Yuan Ning comforted: "Don't be nervous, it's just a challenge, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Like me, I'm not nervous at all. I originally came to exercise with Brother Zhou and the others."

Cui Junxian didn't want to talk to Yuan Ning anymore.Which eye of this guy sees him nervous?Do you really think he is a guy like them who has never seen the market?Since he was a child, he has made guest appearances in his father's plays and sung at his mother's concerts, and he still fears that this little Go game will fail? !

Some things need to be done quietly, such as playing chess.Cui Junxian was inadvertently pissed off by Yuan Ning, and all he wanted was to teach Yuan Ning a profound lesson and let Yuan Ning know what it means to be afraid.As a result, the more he gritted his teeth, the more likely he was to make mistakes, and he made a foolish move not long after the start.

Yuan Ning was taken aback, thinking that this should not be at Cui Junxian's level - he also watched a lot of Cui Junxian's game videos these days!Of course, no matter whether Cui Junxian lost his head or not, Yuan Ning would not let go of the opportunity to lead.

Maybe when he wins, Big Brother wants to kiss him again!

Yuan Ning was full of motivation, occasionally looking at Zhang Xiuyan who was reading a book and listening to the broadcast outside while Cui Junxian was thinking.

Cui Junxian soon realized that the situation was not good, and the moves became slower and slower.

On the other side, Li Yanqiu also brought Ms. Li over.There was a bit of traffic on the road, they were a little late, the race had already started.Li Yanqiu led Ms. Li to sit down, and explained to Ms. Li the game situation broadcasted on the TV screen, most of which were from Yuan Ning's side.

Zhang Xiuyan sat close to them and could hear their conversation clearly.When Li Yanqiu said "he occasionally looks towards us", Zhang Xiuyan lifted his eyes from the book and looked at Yuan Ning in the arena, just in time to catch Yuan Ning's gaze.

Zhang Xiuyan gave Yuan Ning a stern look.

He taught Yuan Ning since he was a child to concentrate on everything he does!

Yuan Ning: "..."

Big brother can't concentrate when sitting outside_(:з)∠)_

And the opponent seems to be more careless than him, making mistakes several times!

Cui Junxian also quickly noticed Yuan Ning's distraction, and gave Yuan Ning a hard look, earnestly redeeming the disadvantage.

It's a pity that he made a few stupid moves in front of him, and Yuan Ning is not someone who will easily let go of opportunities. No matter how hard he tries later, he will not be able to narrow the gap - let alone turn defeat into victory!

Cui Junxian conceded defeat in the middle game.

Yuan Ning was startled, a little bit unfinished.Just now, Cui Junxian realized that he had made a mistake, so he quickly calmed down and showed his true level to save the situation.Although it was not successful, it was enough to make Yuan Ning realize that if Cui Junxian hadn't made mistakes at the beginning, Cui Junxian would probably win!

Yuan Ning praised sincerely: "You are very powerful."

Cui Junxian heard the translator thought Yuan Ning was being sarcastic, but he stared at Yuan Ning carefully, but he didn't see the slightest mockery from Yuan Ning's face.Cui Junxian snorted, and did not change his arrogance from last week just because he lost: "Although I lost to you this time, I will definitely not lose when I meet you next time!"

Yuan Ning found that although Cui Junxian was proud and high-profile, he was also quite interesting.He said happily: "I look forward to playing chess with you again."

Cui Junxian got up and left.

The fifth round is over - he got the spot!

Yuan Ning also left the competition room and ran out to find Zhang Xiuyan.He didn't notice that Li Yanqiu and Ms. Li who were near Zhang Xiuyan hugged Zhang Xiuyan happily: "Brother, I won!"

Li Yanqiu was surprised, and looked at Zhang Xiuyan who was hugged by Yuan Ning.

The two brothers are so close...
