Chapter 1916 I’m in a hurry
Grandpa Wang was speechless after Chen Chuan's retort.
The onlookers simultaneously gasped in disbelief.
"They actually won."
"I never thought I'd live to see someone beat Old Wang."
"Eighty-eight thousand! Do you think he'll really give it to him?"
"Everyone's watching, how can we not give it to him? He beat so many people before, did he miss out on taking any of them?"
"That's right, but... that's 88,000, that's a lot of money."
"Don't say anything, let's see if Old Wang will give it to us or not."
Should we give it to them or not?
Wang Qianjin looked unwell, but fortunately, he kept his promise and transferred the money, though his hand was shaking a little.
After turning around, he said to Chen Chuan, "Let's play another round."
He was indignant. How could he have lost? He was clearly in a very favorable position. Where exactly did he go wrong?
"I'm not coming," Chen Chuan said with a smile. "Unless there are still 88,000 left."
Grandpa Wang's expression changed: "What are you dreaming of? I don't have that much money."
So all that time he spent setting up his stall for over ten days, enduring wind and sun, working hard and worrying, was just to work for this brat?
He's really cunning.
Losing isn't scary, and losing badly isn't scary either. What's truly terrifying is that he still doesn't understand how he lost. Especially for a master like him, not even knowing how he died—isn't that a tragedy?
The situation was clearly on his side, so why did he suddenly... lose?
He was clearly the one who kept pushing Chen Chuan's pieces to the brink of defeat, so how did he end up being checkmated?
He couldn't understand it, and he wanted to try again to figure it out, otherwise he wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.
Chen Chuan shook his phone: "There's no stake, so it's no fun playing. Why don't you find someone else to play with? They make easy money off you."
Very well, with just one sentence, he offended everyone present, and they all glared at him angrily!
Although it's true, saying it like that is incredibly disrespectful to them.
Chen Chuan didn't care. He got up and gave Shen Xi a look. Shen Xi immediately came to her senses and asked Grandpa Lin for the money she had bet.
Grandpa Lin's hands were trembling as he calculated the money for her.
Yes, how did the young man actually win? What exactly happened? I can't figure it out. Not to mention Old Wang, he wants to know too.
They made 88,000 over there and tens of thousands over here. In less than half an hour, they earned over 100,000?
Are young people making money so easily these days?
After Shen Xi received the money, Chen Chuan was about to argue with her when Grandpa Lin grabbed him and said, "Young man, want to play a round with me?"
Chen Chuan glanced at him sideways: "You're also giving 88,000?"
"No, but I have others."
"What else?"
"I have an incomplete chess manual at home. I took a picture and sent it to you."
Chen Chuan:......
He said that the elderly are really shrewd. They just shared a photo, without causing any harm or costing any money, and they wanted to swindle him out of 88,000 yuan.
For Chen Chuan, not making a profit was equivalent to losing money.
Grandpa Lin winked and said, "It's really a good thing. I haven't figured it out in all these years. It's an old item. It was passed down from my ancestor. He was a master craftsman of the Ming Dynasty."
He leaned closer and said, "If you can figure it out, I'll give you the chess score."
Chen Chuan considered for a moment: "Let me take a look at the photos first."
"no problem."
Grandpa Lin took out his phone and showed him the photos. Chen Chuan glanced at them and agreed.
The two set up the chessboard, ready to begin their battle.
Treasure called.
"Mom and Dad, where did you go? Did you run away? Don't you want me anymore?"
"My darling is back?"
"Well, I wanted to give you a surprise. Where did you go? Did you sneak off to eat something delicious?"
"No, Daddy came out to buy you your favorite little cake."
"really?"
"of course."
"How long until you're back?"
Chen Chuan glanced at his watch: "About forty minutes. Dad will be back at four o'clock."
"Okay, then I'll wait for you."
"good."
Chen Chuan put down his phone: "Come on, sir, let's start the killing."
Grandpa Lin muttered, "Forty minutes? Who do you think you are?"
Although his chess skills are not as good as Lao Wang's, it's not like he could lose in forty minutes, right? Wait, Lao Wang only lasted for half an hour...
"Sir, you've misunderstood. Twenty minutes of the forty minutes are reserved for the subway."
Grandpa Lin: ...
"Twenty minutes? You think I'm..."
"Grandpa, you've misunderstood again. These twenty minutes include playing chess with you, going to buy a cake, and walking home from the subway exit."
Grandpa Lin: …………
He is angry!
"Who do you think you are? Huh? I know I can't beat you, but I'm not going to lose in such a short time, am I?"
Doesn't he know that men are very sensitive to time, regardless of the time?
Chen Chuan smiled and deftly arranged the chess pieces: "Hurry up, sir, I'm in a hurry, my daughter is urging me."
Grandpa Lin: My dear sister.
Although he was unhappy, he still quickly set up the Chu River and Han Border.
So the two started fighting.
The crowd quickly gathered again, and even Grandpa Wang came over with his thermos cup, his face a complex mix of resentment and heartache.
Then, everyone witnessed another style of Chen Chuan's playing.
The autumn wind sweeps away the fallen leaves, swish, swish, swish!
It's like a walking meat grinder, devouring any piece it sees.
Eight minutes later—
"General!"
Grandpa Lin's facial muscles immediately stiffened. What? Checkmate? He hasn't even played a move yet, and he's already checkmated?
Chen Chuan threw down the chess piece: "Grandpa, come on, let's add each other on WeChat. You can take your time to figure it out. Once you've figured it out, you can send me the chess score."
With a "beep," he got up, grabbed his wife, and left.
Grandpa Lin was so angry he felt like he was going to explode!
What's going on? Even if his chess skills aren't as good as Old Wang's, he's been playing for decades. How bad could he be? It's over already? In just a few minutes?
Grandpa Wang quietly sat down in Chen Chuan's seat, looked at the chessboard, and then simulated the moves.
After a long pause, he looked up at Grandpa Lin and said, "You really did lose."
"Who said that? He only did it once, how could I possibly run away?"
"Look at the trap he's set up around you. You'll be checkmated within five steps, and you won't be able to escape."
"What?" Grandpa Lin was taken aback.
Grandpa Wang didn't waste any time and started demonstrating. After he finished, Grandpa Lin murmured, "He really lost. How is this kid so good?"
etc--
"He's clearly so strong, but why was he so slow and hesitant when he played against you? Could it be... he's playing dumb to fool you?"
The two, suddenly realizing what had happened, both looked grim.
Grandpa Wang was even more cunning; he never imagined that one day he would be fooled by such a low-level trick.
