Go: The live broadcast queen launched a gorgeous rebellion against the dog

Chapter 239: Still Undefeated
“Woo woo…little squirrel…my little squirrel!

"My dream yesterday was full of little squirrels..."

August 8, 29: p.m.

Changbai Peak Qilu Resort Town.

The little witch who appeared at the opening ceremony of the "2023 China Women's Go League A·Changbai Peak Station" today had a face full of resentment and kept muttering to herself.

Like the Men's Go League, the Women's Go League also has an arrangement to hold competitions in a unified place similar to that in Bianzhou - and even the number is just a little more.

女子围甲一共十八轮双循环赛，第1到4轮、13到14轮、15到18轮，都是以分站赛的形式在同一地点统一举行。统一举办的轮次甚至比主客场举办的轮次还要多。

The reason for doing this is very simple: to reduce the financial burden on each team and reduce the overall cost of the event.

After all, the Go sport is not very entertaining in this era. From a purely commercial perspective, none of the teams can actually make a profit. They all have to rely on prize money from the Go Association or funding from sponsoring companies (and local governments) to survive.

In such a big context, it is necessary to minimize the expenditure of each team.

One method adopted by the Chess Association is to reduce the number of rounds that need to be held at each team's home stadium and to hold more centralized competitions to "reduce the burden" on the teams.

...

Seeing the situation of their three teammates, Liu Yuhong and Wang Haocheng, who did not arrive at the resort until four o'clock in the afternoon yesterday, were naturally unaware of the inside story.

But when asked, Yang Manjing just puffed up his lips and said nothing for a while. The two could only sigh secretly that their child had reached his rebellious period again.

However, despite our emotions, we still have to do the necessary pre-match mobilization.

"Jingjing, you can worry about some things before the game, but you have to focus on the competition in the next two days!"

Wang Haocheng decisively carried out ideological mobilization before the game, fearing that his little fairy would be stimulated inappropriately and suffer the same inexplicable failure as in the last Wu Yue Cup auditions.

After all, there is a vicious wolf chasing after our team. At this critical moment, every point is very precious.

However, what Wang Haocheng did not expect was that the little witch was very eager to fight at this time.

There are even some...

Too full.

"Yeah, this is natural!"

Yang Manjing quickly responded to Wang Haocheng's words, and then asked eagerly:

"Um...Sister Wang, can I discuss something with you?"

"Well, tell me!"

The little witch immediately pouted her lips and put on a fierce look:

"In this year's final round of the Weiqi League, can you let me get off the second table? I must give that Sister Juan Wang a good beating!"

"Big sister Juan Wang?"

Wang Haocheng didn't react for a moment when he heard this name.

"That Rui Zhao!"

Yang Manjing said angrily:
"She practices chess every day. It's not an exaggeration to say that she is the best!"

Uh, girl, you missed the point!

Wasn't it known to everyone that Rui Zhao was the best player before she was promoted to the professional level?

The expression of the second player of the Su Hu team was a little distorted for a moment.

The main thing is... Jingjing, is it really appropriate for you to call someone "big sister"? !

Rui Zhao, this beautiful 18-year-old girl who looks like a star, is called "Big Sister". So what should I, who is already 32 years old, be called?
Auntie?
However, the little witch did not pay much attention to the changes in Wang Haocheng's expression:
"Really... We're already at Changbai Peak, why are we practicing chess? I didn't feed the little squirrel yesterday afternoon..."

The little witch immediately started to complain, and it was this complaint that confused Wang Haocheng:

There are just too many messy points, right? !

Can't you go by yourself? Why do you have to keep an eye on Rui Zhao?
However, Wang Haocheng is well aware that one must refrain from complaining when coaxing children.

Especially in the current league where no point can be lost.

"Well...of course you can."

Wang Haocheng pretended to be thinking seriously.

"But Jingjing, you have to know that team competition requires overall consideration, not just one person's business!"

"what……"

The little witch lowered her head in frustration.

But at this time Wang Haocheng changed the subject:
"…But if you win all the way to the final round like this, I guess everyone in the team will consider this, right?"

The little witch almost sprained her waist due to the sharp turn. She immediately opened her eyes wide and confirmed excitedly:
"Really?!"

"Of course! This shows that you are definitely capable of going to the second stage!"

"Great!"

Yang Manjing cheered immediately and was full of energy.

There was the old hatred of snatching away Sister Yu Hong, and the new hatred of not seeing the little squirrel... These accounts must be settled!

The little witch vowed to win all the way to the last round, and then beat up "Sister Rui, the Queen of Curls" to vent her hatred!

Liu Yuhong, who was standing by, was a little worried when he saw this, so he quickly pulled Wang Haocheng aside and asked:
"Sister Wang, is this...really okay?
"Our last game against the Dongjiang team may directly affect this year's league championship. Is it appropriate for you to agree to Jingjing like this?"

Wang Haocheng shrugged and said

“Nothing inappropriate, right?

“In the second half of last year’s league, Jingjing’s ability was very close to mine, and they put me on the second stage simply because they saw that I was older and more stable.

"And this year she even beat Aoi Natsukawa and made it to the semi-finals of the Wu Yue Cup. I think it wouldn't be surprising if the team let her go to the second table anytime."

"Sister Wang, that's not what I'm talking about!"

Liu Yuhong's face showed worry.

"I mean, if in the final match, the only way to win is to ensure the victory of the main player and the three players, then it might be most appropriate to put Jingjing on the last player!"

"That's okay..." Wang Haocheng said calmly:
"If this situation really happened, how could we not know about it?

"We want to secure at least one victory on the second or third table, but the Dongjiang team will naturally try to seize opportunities in the deployment of troops. If things go wrong, they will take advantage of the situation and let Rui Zhao go to the third table, and then it will become a chain of suspicion... With the repeated game between the two sides, the table arrangement becomes a simple gamble of luck.

"Anyway, Jingjing just wants to fight against Rui Zhao. When the time comes, we can tell him the situation and explain it clearly. It's a matter of luck, so if it doesn't work, you can't blame us! It's not like I want to regret it!"

Liu Yuhong thought about it carefully and found that it was indeed the case!
This is... really a thorough consideration.

Queen Mulan couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Although she had already taken on a major responsibility in terms of chess skills, it would be a huge loss for the Suhu team if Sister Wang left the team after the end of this season.

but……

Now is probably not the time to be thinking about the end of the season…

Queen Mulan swallowed subconsciously, then glanced at the little witch who was full of fighting spirit and the three members of the Dongjiang female team not far away, then bit her lip and became more serious.

...

...

[Women's Weiqi League Changbaifeng Station ended, Suzhou, Huzhou and Dongjiang each won nine points, the strongest new first-dan Rui Zhao has not lost a game so far in the league! ]

August 8, 31: am.

In Dongjiang City, Dongjiang Garden Community, Lei Qi, who was having breakfast, saw the headline of Yiguo News and his eyes couldn't help but pause slightly.

That Rui Zhao won two more games...

And the second player won.

The young man, who had no longer stepped down from the podium, felt a strange emotion in his heart.

To be honest, Lei Qi, who already knew the whole story, did not have any strong resentment towards the girl who was called "the strongest new first-dan" - even though the last person who was called "the strongest new first-dan" was himself.

After all, people know nothing from the beginning to the end, and there is no subjective malice at all. And if we must talk about playing chess, it is indeed a good game...

...Well, it's okay.

…I am indeed better than when I was just promoted to professional level.

As a professional chess player, Lei Qi had to admit this fact no matter what.

But as a star player whom Shang Chaotian was determined to promote despite ignoring her feelings, and also the girl who once made him lose, it was difficult for Lei Qi to completely ignore his attitude towards this beautiful girl.

"Son, what's wrong? Why don't you eat suddenly..."

At this time, Lei Jingming's cautious words reached Lei Qi's ears.

Ever since Lei Qi's sudden outburst a few days ago, this capable old man who used to make mistakes in details has been particularly cautious in front of his son, fearing that he would irritate his son again.

Even... so cautious that it makes people feel a little distressed.

Lei Qi's heart slightly tightened, and he immediately replied with a smile:

"Dad, I'm just done eating! Don't be so nervous!"

The boy then took his dishes to the kitchen and returned to the living room to pick up the bag he had packed last night.

...Well, don't worry about it, Lei Qi.

Your job now is to do your job well.

Since my dad has finally stood on my side this time, I must not let him down again!
After the boy silently thought about it in his heart, he said to his parents with full determination:

"Then Dad, Mom! I'm ready to go!

"I'll go home as soon as I get a chance!"

At this time, Qin Xiaoxue took the initiative to step forward and hug Lei Qi:

"Son, don't force yourself when you are out there. If you feel pressured, just tell me. It doesn't matter if you don't want to play chess anymore. You must never force yourself!"

"Well, don't worry, Mom! It's my fault for making you worry this time... I won't do anything like this again."

After hugging his mother, Lei Qi looked at his father.

But Lei Jingming was at a loss for a moment and didn't know what to do.

Lei Qi pursed his lips subconsciously, and then hugged him without saying a word:

"...Dad, this incident is all my fault, don't worry about it. I just... don't like Chairman Shang's behavior.

"besides……

"Thank you for understanding me."

At this moment, Lao Lei bit his lip and quickly hugged his son in front of him:

"It's okay, it's okay son, Dad understands you!
"I used to do a lot of things without thinking... Can you forgive me, Dad?"

"I can't really say... Dad! It's all right as long as we communicate well!"

Lei Qi patted his father's back again, then slowly let go.

"I'm leaving!"

"Do you really not need us to drive you down?" Qin Xiaoxue asked again.

"No need, mom! I'm an adult! You don't have to keep watching us!

"Let's go! Goodbye, Mom and Dad!"

Lei Qi answered with a smile, then walked out of the house and strode towards the entrance of the community.

But his smile gradually faded, replaced by an increasingly serious expression.

Well... I can't let my parents down.

and also……

You can't... let Chairman Shang laugh at yourself.

When he thought of this, the boy's already hurried pace became even faster.

Continue to lie down, anyway... well, the plot line is like this, this failure really can't be changed, and the expression still needs to be expressed clearly.
