Chapter 91: Caressing Her Cheek
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Lu Zhi looked at her dazed expression and felt a strange feeling in his heart. He reached out and caressed her cheek.
Jiang Yining didn’t dodge. When she came back to her senses, she felt his hand caressing her cheek, and it felt very warm.
In the next second, she shrunk back slightly.
“What are you doing?”
“There’s something on your face. I’ve removed it.”
Lu Zhi retracted his hand calmly.
Jiang Yining couldn’t help but touch her face. Did she accidentally dirty her face when she was eating just now?
Lu Zhi noticed her little action and felt like touching her again.
He had been feeling strange lately.
Every time he saw her doing these little actions, he couldn’t help but want to caress her head or face…
Jiang Yining felt a little awkward and stood up. “It’s getting late. Time for bed.”
“Okay.”
Lu Zhi nodded.
Jiang Yining walked off hastily and didn’t pay attention to the steps beneath her.
She missed a step and almost fell.
Lu Zhi reached out in time to hold her arm. “Be careful.”
Jiang Yining stood up straight and said with a flushed face, “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome. Good night.”
“Good night.”
Jiang Yining broke free from his grip and sped towards her bedroom.
Lu Zhi stood on the spot and watched her disappear around the corner up the stairs.
He kept the smile on his face and sat back down to play “Clear Spring” again.
Jiang Yining returned to her room and sat on her bed. Her brows furrowed as she thought about everything that had just happened.
She seemed to be getting too close to Lu Zhi.
It was not a good sign.
She married into the Lu family to find Lin Yan. If she was too close to anyone in the Lu family, she would not be able to leave them when the time came. That was not what she wanted.
Besides, for all she knew, Lu Beicheng was behind Lin Yan’s disappearance.
No matter who hurt her good friend, she would make this person pay dearly. Even if this person was Lu Zhi’s younger brother, she would show no mercy!
Therefore, she could never be friends with Lu Zhi.
Jiang Yining shook her head as she thought about this, hoping to get rid of these distracting thoughts.
It was a sunny weekend.
Jiang Yining had made an appointment with Old Master Lu to play chess with him at the old Lu residence.
The moment she stepped into the old mansion, Old Master Lu walked up to her enthusiastically and said, “Kiddo, I’ve prepared the Go board, stones and bowls. I’ve been waiting for you.”
“Sorry, I’m guilty. I should have come earlier and not let Grandpa wait.”
Jiang Yining had a honeyed tongue.
“Guilty of what crime? Let’s go, I haven’t had a suitable Go partner for a long time. I’ll play two games with you first to understand your skill level.”
“Yes, sir.”
Old Master Lu couldn’t wait to bring Jiang Yining to the pavilion.
After the two of them sat down, Old Master Lu started placing stones on the Go board.
Jiang Yining played white stones and responded unhurriedly.
Half an hour later, the originally empty board was filled with Go stones.
Old Master Lu said with a laugh, “Kiddo, you’re not bad. But your stones are now surrounded. No matter where you place your next stone, it’s a dead end. Want to surrender now?”
“Grandpa, the word ‘surrender’ doesn’t exist in my dictionary.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Yining placed another white stone on the board.
Old Master Lu stopped her. “Silly girl, if you place your stone there, you’ll lose half your stones on the board.”
Jiang Yining smiled but didn’t say anything.
She removed her lost stones from the board and put them aside.
Old Master Lu shook his head repeatedly. She looked like a smart girl. Why was she so muddle-headed at such a critical moment?
But as soon just he thought this, he carefully noticed that the overall situation on the board had changed.
Jiang Yining’s white stones had actually come back to life!
If she didn’t “commit suicide” just now and placed her stone in the remaining empty spaces, she would have definitely lost!
But now…
Her “suicide” had opened up a lot of empty space.
She now had every chance to turn the tables and turn defeat into victory!
Old Master Lu looked at Jiang Yining in surprise.
This young girl was no simpleton. She actually had such courage at such a young age.
She didn’t look like a daughter from an ordinary family..
