Although Zhuo Ye didn't raise her head, she could still feel Wu Li's eyes on her. The feeling of being a prey being targeted by a wild beast came again! She didn't like it very much!
"Don't you find it boring to play chess alone, girl? Why don't you play a game with me?" Wu Li picked up the teapot and teacup beside him and poured himself a cup of tea.
Hearing this, Zhuo Ye stopped what he was doing, looked up at Wu Li, and saw that he was holding a tea cup and looking at her with a smile, waiting for her reply.
"Okay." Zhuo Ye nodded and pushed the chess jar with black stones in front of Wu Li. The game was not over yet, and she did not plan to start another game.
It's better to play chess together than to be stared at with his penetrating eyes all the time.
At this moment, it was time for the black stone to be placed. Wu Li picked up a black stone, and after thinking for a moment, it fell onto the chessboard with a "pop" sound.
After the two of them went back and forth for a few rounds, Zhuo Ye discovered that Wu Li was actually a master of chess! And he would never lose to her and Feng Linge!
Wu Li was also quite surprised. He had seen her playing chess with him before, so he knew that she was good at chess. It would take some time to win against her. But now that they were officially fighting, he realized that he still underestimated her. Who would lose in this round?
Who will win is still unknown...
An afternoon passed, and the game of chess was finally finished, and the final result was a draw!
Wu Li looked down at the drawn chessboard. After a while, he raised his head and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Miss Zhuo is so good at chess. It really gave me an unexpected surprise!"
Is this praising her? Or is he praising himself?
Zhuo Ye disagreed: "I only got a draw with Mr. Wu."
When Wu Li heard this, Danfeng's eyes narrowed slightly and he chuckled, "How about we fight again tomorrow?"
"If Mr. Wu has time to play chess again, the little girl should accompany him." Zhuo Ye's tone was still light.
"See you tomorrow then." Wu Li glanced at Zhuo Ye with an ambiguous look, stood up and left...
Not long after Wu Li left, Hua Nu brought dinner. As usual, there were two vegetables, one meat, one soup, and one bowl of rice. The dishes were not the same. Zhuo Ye shook his head and sighed softly. She was a "meat lover".
The treatment is really good! But no matter how good it is, it is still a "meat ticket"!
I don’t know when these days will end…
In other words... is there any chance of ending...
After playing chess that day, Wu Li came to Zhuo Ye's cabin every afternoon.
Zhuo Ye read every morning, and in the afternoon he played chess with Wu Li. They both lost and won, and their chess skills were indeed between those of Zhong Bo.
Apart from playing chess, the two of them didn't talk much. In this way, another three days passed peacefully.
If it weren't for the life of being imprisoned now, and if Wu Li often looked at her with such strange eyes, perhaps Zhuo Ye would be happy to have another rare opponent...
"King Jin has been in Yuanxi City for many days." Wu Li said casually after putting down the chess piece in his hand.
"Oh." Zhuo Ye responded without any special expression and dropped the chess piece in his hand.
Although Zhuo Ye's face was calm, his heart was already in turmoil. Lin Ge had been in Yuanxi City for many days? Didn't he find her current location? Alas... I don't know where she is.
What the hell is this place! Lin Ge must be very anxious...
Zhuo Ye's slight pause did not escape Wu Li's eyes. He raised the corners of his lips and continued: "Lian Xiao and his twin sister have been visiting the south for a long time and found nothing. They must have found nothing now."
We have received the news and are on our way to the west, but... it will take some time for them to arrive..." After saying this, another child dropped.
As expected, even her siblings are looking for her... Sigh... Zhuo Ye felt warm, panicked and powerless at the same time. Is there nothing she can do except waiting for everyone to rescue her?
Zhuo Ye didn't say anything. He held the chess pieces in his hands and seemed to be thinking for a long time before he put down the chess pieces...
"Prince Rui, I estimate that we will arrive at Yuanxi City within one or two days." Wu Li continued.
Hearing this, Zhuo Ye's heart suddenly tightened! She remembered Wu Li saying that he caught her just to exchange for the same thing as Feng Linche! It couldn't be an ordinary thing. Did he really come?
?Will she...will she cause him a lot of losses and trouble?
"Ah, the tea is gone." Wu Li picked up the teapot, shook it slightly, and was about to call the flower slave...
"Oh, I'll go collect the water." Zhuo Ye came back to his senses and hurriedly answered.
Wu Li smiled slightly and handed the teapot to Zhuo Ye: "Okay."
The small house where Zhuo Ye lives has a small kitchen, but there are no ingredients here, and Zhuo Ye is not in the mood to cook by himself. Usually, he only uses the small stove in the kitchen when boiling water.
Now, there was a pot of water sitting on the stove, which Hua Nu had prepared just now. Zhuo Ye turned up the fire in the stove, and the pot of water, which was already warm, boiled in a matter of seconds.
While Zhuo Ye was filling the teapot, he was secretly worried about what to do? Will Feng Linche really exchange Wu Li for what she wants? Does he know who Wu Li is? In other words, Wu Li is real.
His name? Once Feng Lince really loses something important, then... is there still a chance to get it back?
The water in the teapot overflowed and almost burned Zhuo Ye's hand. Zhuo Ye was so frightened that he took a big step back. He threw his sleeve on the stove and made a slight muffled sound. It might be the folding knife, mobile phone and other items in the sleeve.
Touched the stove...
Wait, cell phone? Zhuo Ye's heart suddenly jumped! He quickly took out the cell phone in his sleeve and checked it. Fortunately, it has power!
Call up the camera function, set it to mute, then pick up the teapot, use the teapot to block the hand holding the phone, and walk towards the room...
Opening the door curtain, Wu Li in the hall was lowering his head, studying the chess game on the chessboard intently, without looking up at her. This was an opportunity!
Zhuo Ye tried his best to suppress his racing heart, quietly raised his phone, and quickly pressed the "continuous shooting button"...
Although he knew that his move might not be of much help to Feng Linche, if Feng Linche really didn't know who the other party was, it would be easier to check in the future if he had the photos on his cell phone...
Zhuo Ye now doesn't care about hiding the functions of her mobile phone with the Feng brothers and others. Anyway, a lot of the modern items on her body have been exposed...
When Zhuo Ye just retracted his hand, Wu Li raised his head and looked at her at the door: "Why don't you come in? What are you looking at?"
"Nothing." Zhuo Ye used the teapot and the half-lifted door curtain as cover, quietly hid the phone in his sleeve, and then walked into the hall.
After filling their teacups with tea, Zhuo Ye sat down and continued to play chess with Wu Li pretending to be calm.
