Chapter 1484: Chapter 830 Worth Challenging
Qin Yuan didn’t feel any surprise and was quietly listening to the bald man explain things to him here.
He glanced at the bald man and felt much better.
Initially, he thought the bald man was just impulsive, nothing more.
Now it seemed that it’s truly unjust to judge a book by its cover; you have to slowly get to know someone to understand what kind of person they are.
Now he had a pretty good idea of what kind of person the other was.
Qin Yuan’s lips curled slightly, visibly in a good mood.
“Actually, I think your chess skills are quite good. Even though you haven’t touched Chinese chess for over a decade, as long as you’re willing to work hard…”
“You will definitely reach the level you aspire to. I believe you have the perseverance and ability, because I believe in you.”
“That’s why I chose to say these things to you here, chose to give you words of encouragement. I do hope you can do it and not disappoint me further.”
Qin Yuan could see that the bald man was visibly excited.
The bald man was still sitting on the ground.
Black Bear also helped him up.
“Don’t get too worked up, okay? Take it easy next time and try not to fall again.”
You shouldn’t get all worked up in the first place.
You definitely need to take it easier.
If you don’t take it easy, you might fall again.
That’s what Black Bear thought to himself.
But he really did hope the bald man would change.
The bald man nodded, though his expression was perfunctory.
But his gaze continued to rest on Qin Yuan.
“Brother, I didn’t expect you to say such encouraging words to me. Since you’ve spoken these words of encouragement, does that mean you think highly of me?”
“You will choose to keep me by your side and let me continue to sharpen my chess skills, won’t you? If that’s the case, I will truly study hard.”
“I won’t let you feel any disappointment. After all, you are my brother, and since you have expectations of me, how could I let you down?”
The bald man began to chatter nonstop, his gaze fixed on Qin Yuan.
He forgot to look for Crescent Moon’s reaction; in fact, Crescent Moon knew what his intention was.
But she chose not to speak, her eyes maintaining a serene composure.
After a while, Qin Yuan’s lips curved again slightly.
“Hmm, just work hard.”
Crescent Moon already understood what Qin Yuan meant. Wasn’t this just giving the bald man a way out?
Since he acted this way, she certainly wouldn’t smash his rice bowl.
If she smashed his rice bowl, it would be somewhat unreasonable.
But Crescent Moon didn’t immediately speak out; she still chose to maintain her posture.
Just as the bald man was about to burst into laughter, something suddenly occurred to him.
And he immediately turned his gaze to Crescent Moon, taking a deep breath.
“Crescent Moon, you must have heard what brother said just now, right? I knew you’d heard what brother had to say.”
“You and brother are on the same side, and he even chose to help you coax your daughter, so you definitely won’t disappoint him.”
“Nor will you go against him. He wants to keep me by his side to improve my chess skills, so you’ll surely follow his lead, right?”
Upon hearing this, Crescent Moon said nothing.
Isn’t this just forcing a narrative?
This won’t do.
What I hate the most is being forced into a corner.
Qin Yuan then glanced at the bald man and shook his head slightly.
It was with that look that the bald man instantly understood.
So, he really regretted saying the wrong thing just now.
How could he have misspoken? His brain is becoming less and less dependable.
It seems that one must be smarter, and learn to read the room in the future. He can’t be this irrational again.
The bald man immediately slapped his own head, his eyes becoming resolute.
“Actually, that’s not what I meant just now. I just think that you and the brother get along well, and you wouldn’t have such thoughts.”
“Perhaps what I said was a bit rash. I apologize to you here. I really didn’t mean anything else; you can choose to believe me.”
“But you can also choose not to believe me. Because I’ll apologize here, and you won’t dislike me even if you don’t believe me.”
With these words, the bald man glanced again at Qin Yuan.
The intention was very clear.
Qin Yuan remained silent.
Just then, Crescent Moon checked the time and then placed the antidote right in front of them.
“This is the antidote for you guys, but I’m not in the mood to give it to you yet, because I feel I haven’t let off enough steam.”
“If I gave you the antidote now, I would feel extremely annoyed. So, I choose to make a bit of a scene.”
“After all, you’re the ones who angered me, so shouldn’t you bear some responsibility? Anyway, I won’t be cleaning up your mess.”
It is indeed their fault right now; logically, the bald man is the instigator.
So, it is necessary to find a way to vent this frustration in order to get the antidote. Qin Yuan is also aware of Crescent Moon’s actions.
That is to say, she will give them the antidote, but only on her own terms and willingly.
If she hasn’t vented her frustration yet, they’ll have to take action first.
Therefore, Qin Yuan had no intention of stopping this.
The bald man, seeing Qin Yuan’s indifference, began to panic.
His body couldn’t help but quiver slightly. So what did he mean by this?
