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

Chapter 42 It’s you
In the first ten minutes of the game, Chen Che and Gu Qingyao played back and forth, and he even won a few hands occasionally. However, as time passed, he found that something was wrong.

As time goes by, the pressure from the opponent is increasing.

The feeling of seemingly calm river surface, but actually unfathomable and giving people a huge pressure, came back to haunt him...

Although they gained a slight advantage in the early stages, it was quickly resolved with a few moves by the opponent.

When the game entered the middle stage, Chen Che had already realized that he was no match for his opponent, but he was not discouraged. Instead, he devoted himself to the game, guessing the intention of his opponent's every move, as if the whole world only left him and Gu Qingyao, and the chessboard on the table.

It was precisely because he was completely immersed in the game of chess that he didn't even have the time to think about why the other party seemed so familiar to him.

But he didn't have the extra energy to think about it. The person sitting opposite him did...

Less than five minutes into the game, a strange look appeared on Gu Qingyao's face. As the game progressed, this strange look became more and more intense.

When the game entered the later stage, the familiar resilience displayed by Chen Che made Gu Qingyao completely confirm her guess.

"Cc, Chen Che..." She looked up at the handsome young man in front of her, and suddenly felt that the world was really small.

……

When the game entered the later stage, the number of white pieces on the board far exceeded the number of black pieces. Unless the great Han chess saint Liu Qi was possessed, there would be no changes in this game.

Chen Che held a black piece between his fingers, but could not put it down for a long time. Finally, he let out a long breath and said admiringly: "Great, I lost."

"Brother Che, seeing you so eager to try, I thought you knew how to play Go, but it turns out you're just as bad at it as I am." Cheng Cai joked cheerfully, "This whole game is almost all white pieces, or maybe the mat was moved well just now."

Chen Che didn't say much, and his mind began to replay the chess game.

Because of his strange disease, his memory has reached a terrifying level. Although he cannot remember everything he sees, he can at least reproduce 80% of the chess game he just played.

Rather than engaging in meaningless arguments with Cheng Cai, it is obviously more meaningful to review the situation and identify your own weaknesses.

After Cheng Cai made a joke, he felt a little embarrassed when no one responded to him, so he patted Zhu Xi on the shoulder and said, "Xizi, among the three of us, you are still the best. Let's go for the next game."

"Brother Cai, don't talk nonsense." Zhu Xi hurriedly shook his head to deny, "Brother Che's level is much higher than mine."

During the entire game, Zhu Xi watched quietly from the back. Compared to Cheng Cai, an amateur who knew nothing at all, Zhu Xi could understand a little bit. Although not much, it made him realize that Chen Che and Gu Qingyao's chess skills were far superior to his.

Except for the first few moves, Zhu Xi's thinking was unable to keep up most of the time, and he couldn't even see the intentions of the two people. He also realized that when Gu Qingyao played chess with him just now, what he put was not water, but the sea.

"I'm praising you and you're still being modest..." Cheng Cai wanted to say something else, but he saw Gu Qingyao suddenly look up and look at him sternly.

Cheng Cai immediately shut his mouth.

Gu Qingyao then withdrew her gaze, and then saw Chen Che's eyes moving across the chess pieces, and instantly understood what he was doing.

"Want to review it?" she asked with a chuckle, her tone slightly warmer than before.

Chen Che was still immersed in the game of chess. When he saw Gu Qingyao asking for a replay, he nodded subconsciously and said seriously, "Thank you."

"Easy to do."

……

Next, the two of them replayed the previous chess game step by step.

During the replay, although Chen Che was also very serious, he was not as devoted as before. As he replayed the steps, the familiarity in his heart became stronger. When Gu Qingyao made the last move, Chen Che was 90% sure that Gu Qingyao was his good chess friend.

He raised his head, shifting his gaze from the chess piece to Gu Qingyao's face, and asked with a hint of doubt and probing, "Qing?"

"CC, it's such a small world." Gu Qingyao tilted her head with a smile on her face, as clear and beautiful as a blooming ephemeral flower.

Although he had already guessed it, Chen Che was still a little surprised when his guess was completely confirmed.

I didn't expect that my good chess friend would appear in front of me in this way.

At the same time, he couldn't help but secretly criticize the Eye of Insight in his heart.

"What a special skill! I can't even tell that my opponent is my chess friend. What a rubbish skill."

The two of them just smiled as if no one was around, while the other three people surrounding them were all in a daze.

"Brother Che, do you two know each other?" Cheng Cai was the first to react. He immediately put his hands on Chen Che's shoulders, his tone a little excited.

"I know him. I met him while playing chess online." Chen Che patted Cheng Cai's hand, signaling him to take his hand away. Seeing that he didn't respond, he said, "Take your hand away."

“Oh oh oh.” Cheng Cai stepped aside as if waking up from a dream, with a look of surprise in his heart.

His good brother knows his goddess, so in the future he can get closer to Gu Qingyao through Chen Che.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but grin.

……

"Another game?" Gu Qingyao pointed at the Go board and said teasingly, "You can't escape today."

“No.” Chen Che shook his head, then turned to look at the cupboard behind him and said with a smile, “But I see there seems to be a chess set over there, why don’t we play a game of that first.”

"No, let's play Go first." Gu Qingyao knew very well how shameless the person sitting opposite her was. She didn't want to give him the chance to laugh at her, so she refused decisively.

Chen Che did not force it. After all, playing Go with Gu Qingyao was a very beneficial thing in itself. Coupled with his special memory, if he played a few more games, maybe his Go skills would be improved qualitatively.

So the two of them put their energy into playing chess again. As for the meeting between netizens, no one mentioned it again, as if it was just a trivial matter.

The only person who was highly enthusiastic about this was Cheng Cai.

……

"Brother Nan, let me tell you something. Chen Che and Gu Qingyao actually knew each other before. They were even online friends."

Cheng Cai, who couldn't understand Go, had already gone to the other side and started playing the flying vehicle. He couldn't help but start talking while playing chess.

Qin Nan understood his thoughts instantly, but did not agree with him. Instead...

"That's great. They knew each other before and have common interests. Maybe they can get together."

Cheng Cai was struck by lightning, and was completely stunned.
