As he spoke, Old Mister Wu turned to Lu Lingxiao and said, "Xiaolu, you play a mean game of chess."
Seeing Ye Xi return, Lu Lingxiao put down the chess piece in his hand, straightened up, and looked towards her.
Seeing this, Old Mister Wu chuckled and added, "There you go, you should hurry and keep Xiaoxi company. I won't keep you youngsters from spending time together. When you're not so busy, find some time and we'll play some more... By the way, you play chess so well, did you study it specifically?"
Ye Xi was about to say, "He's not..." my boyfriend.
But before she could get the words out, Lu Lingxiao interjected, "I didn't study it formally, I just played a few times with my grandfather when I was young."
"A few times and you play like this? I don't buy it."
Lu Lingxiao smiled serenely; indeed, he had only played a few times, but his grandfather had been a national chess champion in his youth.
Lu Lingxiao's words just happened to follow up on Ye Xi's.
