The waiters held silver trays filled with a variety of delicacies, including fresh seafood, grilled meats and exquisite desserts. The delicious aroma filled the air, making people salivate.
The whole banquet was filled with luxury, elegance and taste, demonstrating the style and status of the wealthy family.
"Hiss, is this the life of rich people?"
Dongfang Chen couldn't help but sigh with envy.
Of course, he was just envious, he was not really interested in this kind of decadent and extravagant scene.
He would never admit that he was a bumpkin!
"Come on, let's find a place to sit down!"
Gong Yufan Wanzhi pulled him.
The two of them came to a secluded corner, away from those dignitaries who were good at chatting.
"I, a country boy, really can't adapt to the atmosphere here."
He looked at the noisy banquet hall.
"You'll get familiar with each other after coming here a few times. In fact, it's mainly business chats between the elders, and then they compare their performance over the past year and recommend the younger generations they brought with them."
"It's all the same old stuff, nothing new."
Dongfang Chen was a little amused.
Then he asked, "Speaking of which, the banquet seems to start at seven o'clock in the evening, right?"
"Well, there's still more than an hour left!"
"We need to find a place to kill time."
As he said that, he turned his head and looked around, and found a sofa. Although there seemed to be two people there, it was not a big problem.
The banquet hall is so big, but it’s hard to find a place to sit.
"Let's go sit on the sofa over there for a while!"
He pulled the guest rice Wanzhi over.
When he got closer, he could see clearly their appearance and attire; they were both girls!
The girl sitting on the sofa has long black hair with bangs on both sides of the front of her hair, and her pupils are bright red.
She was wearing a black off-shoulder dress. She sat on the sofa with her legs together, sipping a cup of black tea in an elegant posture.
But she exuded a cold aura that kept strangers away, making people subconsciously feel that she was not easy to mess with.
Standing next to her was a blonde girl wearing a black and white bodyguard suit.
She also had a blank expression on her face, and the atmosphere was quite solemn.
But when Dongfang Chen and Gong Yufan Wanzhi came here, she glanced at them both indifferently and did not make any other movements.
From this familiar combination and the two familiar faces, Dongfang Chen has already guessed their identities.
It was none other than Kaguya Shinomiya and Ai Hayasaka, but he chose to pretend that he didn't know them at all.
Out of politeness, he asked first: "Excuse me, can we sit here?"
"No..."
Hayasaka Ai frowned slightly when she heard the voice, and was about to ask the two to leave, but Shinomiya Kaguya raised her hand to stop her.
"Guests are welcome and should be treated with courtesy. Please feel free to..."
Shinomiya Kaguya uttered in a cold voice.
"Thank you!"
He looked at Gong Yufan Wanzhi and said, "Wait here for a moment. I'll go ask if I can find a shogi set."
Then he stopped a waiter and told him his request. The waiter said it was no problem and would deliver it soon.
In just five minutes, the other party brought the chess pieces over and also brought a small table and two small stools.
The service was excellent!
"We can't just sit here. Even though the environment is a bit noisy, let's play a couple of games!"
He placed the chessboard on the coffee table between the two sofas and said.
"Well, it just so happens that I haven't touched shogi for a few days."
Gong Yufan Wanzhi nodded.
"I remember your specialty is the Cave Bear Encirclement, right? I'll ask you to get into formation first, and then I'll fight you with different tactics. Watch carefully, because you may run into me in the future."
"Well, thank you!"
Gong Yufan Wanzhi nodded happily.
She had no objection to Dongfang Chen's coaching tone and was even a little happy.
He wanted to help her perfect her best cave bear siege tactics, this was a rare opportunity for her!
In this way, the two sat opposite each other and began to play chess.
As for the fact that Kaguya Shinomiya and Hayasaka Ai were watching nearby, they didn't care.
It's just being watched, but in any serious competition, there will not only be onlookers, but the entire game will be broadcast live.
Adapting to the environment is also a basic test for chess players.
The two of them were playing as if no one was around, which made Kaguya Shinomiya, who was calmly drinking tea, feel a little restless.
As the eldest daughter of Shinomiya Group President Shinomiya Yan'an, Shinomiya Kaguya has outstanding achievements in art, music, martial arts and other fields, and is truly a talented 400 woman.
Shogi is naturally part of her talent.
Although his level is not high, he has received formal training from professional chess players, so he does have some strength.
Of course, just a little bit!
While she was drinking tea, her eyes would glance at the chessboard from time to time. It wasn't that she was particularly interested, but she was just a little bored sitting there.
"Damn it, what's wrong with these two? They play chess so fast, I can't keep up with them!"
"Wait, why did you deliberately give Keima to this woman to eat?"
"He even gave up the car. Is this man sick?"
"Eh? This woman was clearly in an advantageous position just now, how come she suddenly turned the tables?"
"You're giving up now? You can still play, stupid woman, you thought you were so great!"
……
After the game was over, Dongfang Chen explained to Gong Yufan Wanzhi: "Although your cave bear defense is indeed strong, it is only the outer shell that is strong. Only if someone uses two full sets on you can your layout be disrupted and you will be killed in one fell swoop."
"The Anaguma Wai and the Xianggua are similar. It's a competition of who reveals the flaw later. The party that reveals the flaw first will easily fall into a disadvantage. Let's move on to the next round..."
"it is good!"
Gong Yufan Wanzhi listened carefully and nodded in understanding.
Chapter 88 This woman fell in love with me? (Please subscribe, thank you very much)
“Pah, pah, pah~”
The sound of chess pieces falling on the chessboard was endless. Dongfang Chen and Gong Yufan Wanzhi were playing chess seriously.
Next to Dongfang Chen, the girl in an elegant dress had been sitting quite close to the two men since she first glanced at them.
Although they were in a corner of the banquet hall, their game inevitably attracted several onlookers.
"I'm getting old, I'm getting old. The young people nowadays are really amazing!"
"I know this guy, he was last year's new Dragon King Dongfang Chen, and this lady over here is a female chess player from Kyoto, the holder of the title 'Yamashiro Sakura'."
"It's my first time to play chess at such a big banquet!"
"But isn't it also a blessing for chess fans like us to be able to watch such a game of masters again?"
"That's enough. Shut up and watch carefully. The Dragon King is starting to get angry!"
……
Shinomiya Kaguya listened to the discussion of the onlookers without changing her expression, and learned some basic information about the two people in front of her.
'Does the Dragon King and title remain?'
"But it's nothing special. If I hadn't learned so many skills, I would definitely be better than this woman if I just focused on shogi."
'In comparison, this man who looks about my age was able to capture the Dragon King, so he must be considered to have some talent.'
"If you become my subordinate, maybe you can be of some use?"
"How to conquer him?"
'Haha, under a behemoth like the Shinomiya Group, a mere commoner can only submit!'
After having this thought, Kaguya Shinomiya waved to Hayasaka Ai who was standing next to her.
Hayasaka Ai came over and leaned down slightly, and then she heard, "Bring me the information of that man."
Hayasaka Ai glanced at Dongfang Chen. Although she didn't know what Shinomiya Kaguya was thinking, she still did as she was told.
Then she stepped aside, took out her cell phone, made a call, and returned to Kaguya Shinomiya as if nothing had happened.
Ten minutes later, another bodyguard came with a paper document and handed it to Hayasaka Ai, who glanced through it herself before giving it to Shinomiya Kaguya.
Shinomiya Kaguya also flipped through the information above, which contained all of Dongfang Chen's past from childhood to adulthood, including his life experiences, the people close to him, his personal preferences, etc...
This is just the information I found in a few minutes. If we really conduct a detailed investigation, we might even be able to find out what kind of underwear he wears every day.
Shinomiya Kaguya was quite satisfied with Dongfang Chen's general information, but when she saw the page about the opposite sex who had a close relationship with Dongfang Chen, her eyes suddenly became colder.
"As expected, all men are not good people."
"But it's easier to control someone if they have flaws. Once you become my subordinate, everything will be easy!"
A sneer formed on her lips.
Dongfang Chen, who was still playing chess, suddenly felt a chill on his back and felt like something was staring at him.
He glanced around calmly and happened to catch a glimpse of Kaguya Shinomiya with a worried look on her face. Their eyes met, but there was nothing unusual.
He raised his eyebrows and thought to himself: 'This woman has taken a fancy to me? I hope I won't be embarrassed.'
Dongfang Chen doesn't want to get into any trouble.
"Finally I found you, Kaguya¨¨."
A slightly provocative voice came from behind the crowd. It was not loud, but it did make Shinomiya Kaguya frown.
The onlookers turned to look at the newcomers, and one by one they instantly stepped back and bowed to greet them.
"Master Yunying, you are so honored to be here. We have unintentionally blocked your way. Please forgive us!"
"Yes, yes. I remembered that I still have something to do, so I'll leave now."
The visitor was a young man with a thin face and a pointed chin, which gave him a sinister and cunning look.
He had a slicked-back hair and was wearing a black suit. Following behind him was a tall and strong man wearing glasses.
As this man fell, Dongfang Chen and Gong Yufan Wanzhi also stopped playing chess. He stood up silently and pulled Gong Yufan Wanzhi aside.
Shinomiya Kaguya slowly stood up and looked at the visitor expressionlessly: "Thank you for coming here in person, what can I do for you?"
"As a member of the Shinomiya family, you can't hide in this remote corner forever. Big brother wants to see you."
Sigong Yunying said lightly.
"I see."
Shinomiya Kaguya didn't say anything more to him and just walked away.
But before she had walked a few meters, she heard Sigong Yunying's voice again. Although he was not talking to her, he made her stop.
"You are the Eastern Dragon King, right? I like to speak my mind. Are you interested in doing something for me, Mr. Dongfang?"
Dongfang Chen felt helpless as he looked at Sigong Yunying who was smiling in front of him. I really am a piece of delicious bun, right?
The people around were watching Dongfang Chen's reaction silently. There were many emotions in their eyes, including regret, envy, and expectation.
".' Excuse me, you didn't even tell me your name, but you just came up and wanted me to do something for you. You're really putting me in a difficult position!"
