I don't want to fall in love, I just want to get rewards

Chapter 41 Meeting
After lunch, since Qin Nan bought a movie ticket for three o'clock in the afternoon, there were more than two hours left.

However, Qin Nan had made sufficient preparations long ago and brought a group of people to a chess and card store called "Cool Chess" near the shopping mall.

It is called a chess and card shop, but this is not the kind of chess and card shop favored by middle-aged and elderly people; it is a new type of chess and card shop that is more in line with the interests of young people.

A private room is about 80 square meters, and it is even bigger than some rental houses. It not only provides a variety of board games and chess and cards, such as Werewolf, Avalon, Three Kingdoms, Military Flag, Checkers, Go, etc., but also provides computers, TVs, and even a small study room, which is very suitable for killing time.

"No, Brother Nan, how did you find a place like this?"

As soon as he entered the box, Cheng Cai couldn't help but ask.

This time we can’t blame Cheng Cai for being surprised. Almost no one would have thought that there was such a chess and card store here.

"I have a friend whose family is rich and he likes to play a lot. Later, he turned a building in his home into a chess and card store." Qin Nan answered nonchalantly, then took out a few boxes of board games from the cabinet in the living room, looked at everyone and said, "Pick one and play for a while."

……

In the end, Chen Che, Qin Nan, Han Xiao and Shen Qi played flying chess, while the other four played other board games.

Although the name is flying chess, this flying chess has obviously been specially modified and even incorporates "Truth or Dare".

And because it is a special modified version, the content that may be drawn in the [Truth or Dare] game will make people even more socially frustrated and embarrassed.

Chen Che was lucky. From beginning to end, none of his planes were caught up by anyone to trigger the "crash" mechanism, and all his planes were the first to arrive at the destination.

But even so, he was fooled several times.

The most socially deadly thing was that in one of the "Truth or Dare" games, he chose the big dare, and in the end, under the tossing of the other three, he "affectionately" sang a song "Times Youth League, We Like You..."

Of course, the results for the other people weren’t much better.

After a game, almost everyone’s mobile phone had recorded each other’s dark history, and the distance between them was shortened a lot.

After his four planes arrived at the destination, Chen Che felt the urge to urinate, so he temporarily left his seat and went to the toilet.

……

After returning from the bathroom, Chen Che was surprised to find that the other four people had actually started playing chess, a game he was quite good at, Go.

Gu Qingyao was sitting at one end, with a girl standing behind her.

Sitting opposite Gu Qingyao and playing games with her was Zhu Xi, while Cheng Cai was standing behind Zhu Xi as expected.

Chen Che walked forward silently and observed the game between the two.

What surprised him was that both Gu Qingyao and Zhu Xi actually had a certain level of Go skills, at least much better than ordinary people.

Especially Gu Qingyao, whose seemingly calm but actually murderous style of playing chess made Chen Che think of his good chess friend [Qing]. He even suspected that Gu Qingyao was that good chess friend of his.

But after observing for a while, Chen Che quickly ruled out this speculation.

Although their styles were somewhat similar, the gap in their specific levels was too great. Whether it was the ability to control the situation or the ability to seize opportunities, Gu Qingyao was far behind Qing.

Moreover, when playing chess with [Qing], Chen Che often couldn't even see the opponent's intentions; but he was able to react to every move made by Gu Qingyao, and at most there were a few moves that he had to think for a while.

Chen Che watched quietly, and the outcome of the game gradually became clear. Gu Qingyao's white pieces had formed a tight siege. Even if Zhu Xi racked his brains, there was no chance of winning. ...

"Awesome, I lost." Zhu Xi put down the black piece in his hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Gu Qingyao's thin lips curved upwards slightly, "You played well. If I hadn't seized the opportunity in the middle, I might not have won."

Among the five people present, only Cheng Cai and the girl behind Gu Qingyao took this statement seriously.

"Yes, Xizi, you are really amazing. We have been together for such a long time, and I didn't know you had this ability." Cheng Cai gave him a thumbs up, "One more round, maybe you can win."

"I can't win even if I play ten more games." Chen Che muttered in his heart. It's not that he had any opinion on Zhu Xi, but in his opinion, the gap between the two was really too big.

Zhu Xi's level is definitely above [entry level], but the strength shown by Gu Qingyao from the middle to the late stage of the game is probably at the [proficient] level.

Zhu Xi obviously realized the gap, and the previous game made him a little overwhelmed, so when faced with Cheng Cai's instigation, he waved his hand and refused:

"I'm a little tired. I'll take a break first. Brother Cai, do you want to play another game?"

Cheng Cai really wanted to step forward and make a move, but after thinking for a while, he refused.

After all, although he knows a little bit of Go, it is only the most basic one. If they really play against each other, he will make a fool of himself after just a few moves, which will easily leave a bad impression.

But he was reluctant to let this opportunity go, so...

"Wait, as long as I can make the other guys show their weak and bad side, then if I stay where I am, I will have an advantage!" Thinking of this, Cheng Cai glanced at Chen Che beside him and came up with an idea.

"Brother Che, how about you come and play?" he suggested.

"You really don't want to play?" Chen Che didn't quite understand the other person's train of thought. He didn't take the opportunity, but instead gave it to someone else...

Cheng Cai shook his head and pretended to be helpless: "I have never played Go before, Brother Che, you come."

Chen Che thought about it and felt a little tempted.

After the previous game, he had a rough idea of ​​Gu Qingyao's chess ability, which should be about the same as his own.

The game between equally matched opponents can often give each other more pleasure.

"Okay, I'll take care of this game." Chen Che nodded and sat in Zhu Xi's original seat. Then he and Gu Qingyao put the chess pieces on the board back into the box one by one.

……

"I'll play the black piece." Gu Qingyao said softly.

Chen Che nodded without saying anything else, then picked up a black piece and placed it on the 33 position.

Although this position develops outward very slowly, it is safe. In a confrontation with an equally matched opponent, Chen Che will subconsciously seek stability.

Gu Qingyao blinked, and then made a move.
