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

"……ah?

"Senior sister, are you getting married?!"

February 2026, 2, 15: p.m. on the th day of the twelfth lunar month.

When Lei Qi, who was preparing wholeheartedly for the third stage of the Nongshim Cup after the New Year, heard the news that Liu Yuhong was about to get married on the phone, he couldn't help but be a little surprised:
"Is it, so sudden?"

“It’s not sudden!”

Liu Yuhong on the other end of the phone whispered:

"Sun Hou'er and I have been dating for more than a year, and I will be turning 28 this July.

"For female chess players, if they don't want to be single, dating and getting married at this age is something they have to consider."

"This, this is it..."

After being stunned for a moment, Lei Qi, who felt a little unreal, quickly came to his senses and congratulated:

"Ah... then, congratulations, Senior Sister!

"That's right! I will definitely work hard in this Nongshim Cup, and I will do everything I can to keep the prize money from Sun Ge's six consecutive wins. It can also be considered a small gift from me to you, Senior Sister."

"what?

"No, no, I just said that to my dad casually!"

"Hmm? What's that?"

Xiao Lei, the ninth dan, was a little confused by Liu Yuhong's statement.

"Ah, no, no! Don't feel any pressure, Xiao Lei!"

Little Bird seemed to realize at this moment that his junior brother had no idea about his little operations, so he just brushed it off:

"Sun Monkey told me that pressure will always make a chess player perform poorly.

"When he was under a lot of pressure before, it was thanks to Rui Zhao and I who kept encouraging him. Otherwise, his condition would have been greatly affected...

"so……

"Just do your best! Monkey King and I don't need this little money!"

Uh……

I was just saying this casually...

Lei Qi didn't know what to say for a moment regarding his senior sister's sudden seriousness.

In the end, he just responded with a few more polite words and put his phone down.

In the blink of an eye...

My sister is getting married...

The current leader of China sighed lightly, with a hint of emotion in his tone.

However, Liu Yuhong was seven years older than him, so logically they were not of the same generation.

But after all, the two grew up together, and he felt that this senior sister who often ordered him around and took care of him was like a real sister to him. So even though he knew that the monkey and bird were getting along well, he still felt a little unreal when he suddenly received the good news from his senior sister.

As long as you don't want to be single, you have to fall in love and get married...

Lei Qi whispered in his heart.

Then...she won't be single forever, right?
Will you also fall in love and get married...?

Thinking of this, Lei Qi's heart suddenly tightened for some reason, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of rejection all over his body, which made him quite irritated...

Ah, no, no!
Lei Qi, what are you thinking about again!!!
The Chinese chess master slapped his head suddenly, getting his thoughts, which had gone a little off track, back on track.

For her, falling in love and getting married is a matter for the future!

Now she is still her "strong rival"!
The most important thing right now... is the Nongshim Cup!

Last year, I told her beside her hospital bed that I would not let her go to the Nongshim Cup with so much pressure and expectation!

If she didn't participate and Liu Shixian was allowed to make it to the end, she would definitely look down on him!

With this in mind, Xiao Lei quickly gathered his thoughts and prepared to devote himself to preparations for the Nongshim Cup again.

But before that, he couldn't help but open the Yiguo APP and take a look at the latest domestic ranking points.

Of course, he was not looking at himself at this time, but his strong rival who had recently climbed to 29th place.

Although, judging by her recent behavior...

By July, her rating might be high enough to participate in the Nongshim Cup qualifiers!

...

...

"According to the current arrangement...

"Will the San Shuang Cup qualifiers after the new year only allow the top 20 players to participate?"

At the same time, Dajing City Huaxia Go Association.

Shang Chaotian, who worked overtime until the evening today, looked at the schedule document that Lu Wenjie had just handed over and couldn't help but sigh: "Wenjie, look...

"Can we expand the preliminary selection range to the top 32 like last year?"

Lu Wenjie raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this. He naturally knew who Shang Chaotian was talking about, but he still shook his head and said:

“Maybe not!

"This year we have the Asian Games, but the Chinese New Year is late! This has directly led to many events having to be arranged tightly after the Chinese New Year, and the scale and schedule must be reduced.

“Not to mention that the San Shuang Cup preliminaries were disrupted, other competitions also had to make concessions.

“The most typical example is the Lakeside Cup, which was supposed to be held in May for the first phase and in October for the second phase.

“But because the Asian Games is in late September or early October, everything has been moved to mid-May, so the Dragon Star Tournament and King of Kings Tournament have all had to be postponed accordingly!

"Even now, the Lakeside Cup and Dragon Star Wars are still..."

Having said that, Lu Wenjie pursed his lips slightly and did not continue.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Shang Chaotian couldn't help but ask when he saw this, but Lu Wenjie shook his head and said:

"Nothing, there might be some minor issues with the schedule, I'll go and coordinate it...

"Ah, where were we? Uh, that... oh!

"Not to mention that the country has to make time for the two stages of Asian Games qualifiers. Many title qualifiers have to be held at the same time as some rating-based competitions, saving as much time as possible.

"Under these circumstances, it is really inappropriate to hold a large preliminary election of 28 people like last year..."

"But in this way... Rui Zhao can't come in!"

After a brief silence, Shang Chaotian couldn't help but sigh:
"She didn't make the top four in the last Mengli Lily Cup, so she didn't get any [international competition points]. But Bian Lele also made it to the semi-finals again, which was rare, and got 90 points.

"But in this case, apart from Lei Qi and Xiong Siyi who were in the last semi-finals, the two people with the highest [international competition points] are Zhuang Zheng and Bian Lele, and Rui Zhao can't exchange for a seeded spot. If she is not counted in the preliminaries, then she will miss this Sanshuang Cup again!
"But this girl's recent performance is definitely at the top five level in the world!
"It's just that I suffered from the short duration of the professional competition, which made my ranking points rise more slowly..."

"I understand."

Lu Wenjie nodded and said:
"I have been actively applying for a wild card from South Korea recently, but... it may be difficult.

“After all, whether it is the Samsung Cup or the LIG Cup in South Korea, in essence, they are still competitions established by South Koreans to ‘promote their national prestige’, not to rely too much on the so-called ‘propaganda effect’.

"Except for the 1-2 disadvantage to Liu Shixian, Rui Zhao has firmly suppressed other male chess players from South Korea. It is impossible for South Korea to actively invite such a nemesis with a wild card.

"In 22, when we tried to get a wildcard for Lin Ruixin in the San Shuang Cup, didn't South Korea give it to her?"

"Well……"

Shang Chaotian hesitated for a while, and finally sighed:
"Okay, I understand! Then let's follow this arrangement!
"Also...are the arrangements for the Nongshim Cup after the New Year ready?"

"It's all arranged. This cannot go wrong."

"That's good……"

Shang Chaotian nodded, then smiled bitterly and said:
"Although we managed to end Liu Shixian's cross-term winning streak and consecutive endings last year. But this time he is coming out early as a deputy general and is aggressive. If he wipes us out alone again, I guess the pressure on us will be great!

"after all……

"There's the Asian Games this year!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Wenjie lowered his eyes, knowing what his boss meant.

The Asian Games is a large-scale comprehensive sports event in which athletes represent their country. Although the value of individual honors may not be comparable to the World Championships, its overall influence is enormous.

Previously, Go was selected for the Asian Games twice in 2010 and 2022, and a total of 6 gold medals were produced. The Chinese mainland had the advantage of home court twice but only won one women's team gold medal, which is really hard to be satisfied with.

Especially in the final men's team final in 22, they lost to South Korea 1-4, which made China's proud "depth advantage" a laughing stock, and even made the entire Chinese chess world unable to hold its head up in the entire domestic sports circle.

Right now, Liu Shixian is at the peak of his career, having recently won two world championships, the LIG Cup and the Mengli Lily Cup.

Its magnificent honor roll is also lacking a gold medal in the men's individual Go event at the Asian Games as the most dazzling embellishment.

Under such circumstances, the Nongshim Cup, which is also a rapid chess competition, has some flavor of a rehearsal for the Asian Games.

Especially, Lu Wenjie knew...that Liu Shixian had said something to Sun Yi before!

This shows his determination to win the Nongshim Cup!
"…It's okay, trust our boys!"

After a short silence of two seconds, Lu Wenjie raised his voice again, trying to make the atmosphere more relaxed:
"We are not Gaul. We can't rely on a girl to save the world every day!"

...

...

Unfortunately……

Although China does not have Joan of Arc, it does have the stories of Qin Liangyu and Lady Xian...

March 2026, 3, in the chess room of Dongjiang Hotel.

With China's last main player Lei Qi once again losing to the defending champion Liu Shixian by a margin of one and a half points, after a year, the God of Nongshim returned as a king in his own "home court"!
After the Chinese celebrity Zhaojun ended the last competition as a deputy general, Liu Shixian also ended the Nongshim Cup as a deputy general. In the past 25 Nongshim Cup matches...

There is only the "Pink Miracle", this one defeat. (End of this chapter)
