Lin Xu didn't expect to run into Bai Jiachen here. This place is really small.
"Going out for a walk and sending something." He consciously concealed the fact that he was going to the internet cafe.
Bai Jiachen "Oh," he said, "you're going the wrong way. The relay station is over there."
Lin Xu smirked, "Go straight for 1.3 kilometers, pass three intersections, and turn left 15 meters after the red light."
If I hadn't just checked the navigation, I might have been fooled.
But Bai Jiachen laughed and leaned on the steering wheel: "Lin Xu, you're really something."
Lin Xu doesn't understand why she's laughing so happily, Bai Jiachen pats the passenger seat and says, "Get in the car, I'll give you a ride."
Sitting in the car, the scenery outside the window is as bright as if it were covered with a layer of crystal diamond film, making it hard to keep your eyes open.
Three children ran across the zebra crossing ahead, and Lin Xu recognized the red overall skirt and twin ponytails of the chess prodigy Xiao Hong from that day. The other two were not Xiao Huang and Xiao Lan.
The children seemed to recognize Bai Jiachen's car and stopped her, saying, "Sister Orange, come with us to a place."
Bai Jiachen rolled down the window and leaned over, "Will you be okay later? I need to drop off this brother first."
"I can't wait, Jingjing will die." Xiao Lan suddenly sounded tearful.
Xiao Hong went around to the passenger seat, stood on tiptoe, and grabbed Lin Xu's shoulder bag strap. Lin Xu calmly pulled it back.
"Brother Xu," the girl pleaded, looking at him with open palms, revealing a sweaty piece of Yikou lotus seed: "Come with us to save Jingjing, and I'll give you my candy to eat."
Ten minutes later, two adults and three children looked up at a yellow and white cat on the tree.
The children held spicy dried fish in their hands and called out "Mimi, Jingjing" loudly. The cat stretched its neck, flicked its tail, and climbed higher.
Bai Jiachen observed for a while and asked Lin Xu: "Can you climb trees?"
Lin Xu lowered his head and peeled the candy wrapper, "I've never tried."
Bai Jiachen smiled, snatched the freshly peeled candy and put it in her mouth, then took off her high heels.
Then the coat was thrown over, Lin Xu caught it, smelling the faint scent of grapefruit on it, the same as the shower gel she had used.
"Orange, Orange Sister, Orange, Orange Sister." Just a few seconds later, Bai Jiachen climbed up the branches, and the three little ones cheered excitedly.
Lin Xu was shocked by how agile her movements were, almost catching up to the monkeys in the zoo, and curious about what she had been eating to grow up.
"Amazing, right?"
Bai Jiachen supported the branches and looked down, her long hair cascading among the tender leaves. Her fair face, set against the dark tree trunk, looked as beautiful as a fairy tale enchantress.
Lin Xu remained calm and turned his gaze away as Bai Jiachen continued to climb up. Unable to resist, Lin Xu looked up again and watched as Bai Jiachen held the cat, effortlessly swung from the tree trunk, and landed gracefully on the ground, once again admiring her impressive physical abilities.
The children got a cat and lovingly held it in their arms.
Bai Jiachen drove the car back.
"I've wasted your time." Bai Jiachen hooked a stray strand of hair behind her ear with her finger.
"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry."
Lin Xu saw a shiny candy stain on her lips: "Bai Jiachen, there's something I want to discuss with you."
"What is it?"
"Regarding Song Yi."
Both are intelligent people, and they quickly clarified the matter in a few words. Bai Jiachen asked, "Do you know why Xiaoyi is so eager to win the championship?"
"I don't know," Lin Xu felt that there was no need for him to explore such matters.
Bai Jiachen's expression turned solemn: "My uncle promised Xiaoyi that if Smart Sports Games wins the championship, he will send him to the Go Academy in Hangzhou, but my aunt-in-law will never agree to Song Yi dropping out of school."
"Your younger brother does have a lot of talent." Lin Xu spoke frankly, "And it's the kind that is one in a million. You should fully consider his own wishes..."
"I know this, but he's also good at studying. The path of Go isn't something that can be pursued solely based on talent, and he's already thirteen this year..."
She paused, "You were already playing Go at his age, right?"
Lin Xu froze in expression.
Bai Jiachen eye contact met his gaze in the rearview mirror: "Sorry, I was sitting behind you while you were playing chess today. You were so focused that you didn't notice me, and I didn't realize you were Sannboku..."
"..."
Lin Xu suddenly felt the embarrassment of being spied on, with a hint of awkwardness.
In front of the relay station, Bai Jiachen stepped on the clutch and said, "Xiao Yi especially likes you. He has seen every game of yours, and he has even dragged me into playing through some of your games."
"That day at the barbecue, he said you looked familiar. Later, I remembered seeing a photo of you in a Go magazine during a tournament, and you haven't changed much since then."
She earnestly said, "So, can you please come forward and advise Xiao Yi?"
When she heard the phrase "come forward and advise," Lin Xu almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.
After a long pause, he let out a breath and said, "Bai Jiachen, I have to admit you're quite resourceful."
