He looked at Gu Yunshu with sincerity and curiosity.

Gu Yunshu also told him very seriously, “Of course you can’t go down here. Look, if you go down here, I can only go down there. Then you go down here, and then follow closely… I’ll lose.”

Xia Yue, who was playing chess at the side, almost choked on his own saliva when he heard his words.

Liu Yi was also speechless. “It’s fine if you lose. I’m good at chess. It’s normal that you can’t compare to me. It’s not embarrassing to lose.”

“You’ve misunderstood. I’m not afraid of losing face. I’m actually doing this for your own good,” Gu Yunshu said sincerely and solemnly.

This time, Liu Yi didn’t quite understand. “What do you mean?”

“Think about it. We’re learning to play chess, so you definitely hope that the more you play, the better at it you become. If you play with me, won’t it be boring to win in such a short time? But no one here is your match, so you’re the only one you have to challenge.”

“Then how… should I challenge myself?” Liu Yi asked humbly.

“You have to turn the impossible into a possibility,” Gu Yunshu suggested kindly. “Look, your chess piece should be placed here, so I can stop you. Then do you think that it won’t be so easy to win this chess game? You have to challenge this difficulty. Think about it. I made a lousy move, but I still have the ability to turn the tables. Wouldn’t that be challenging yourself?”

Liu Yi’s eyes lit up. “That makes sense.”

The people beside him actually felt that this theory was not wrong at all.

Gu Yundong’s eyes almost popped out. This worked?

Even the teacher, who was sitting not far away and reading the chess records, could not help but twitch his lips. He glanced at Gu Yunshu and pitied Liu Yi.

As expected, Liu Yi really listened to his suggestion and placed the chess piece in the position that Gu Yunshu had mentioned.

Gu Yunshu immediately placed the white chess piece happily.

Alright, it was Liu Yi’s turn to frown and think for a long time.

After two or three steps, Gu Yunshu placed the white chess piece on the chessboard and jumped up from his seat.

“I won, hahaha, I won. Thank you, thank you everyone for your support and love for me. I couldn’t get to where I am today without everyone’s help and care, especially Liu Yi. He sacrificed himself to help me. I’m so touched.”

He was overjoyed. He ran around the classroom, his face flushed with excitement.

On the other side, Liu Yi was still holding the black piece with a dumbfounded expression. He… he won?

Gu Yunshu was overjoyed and ran back to Liu Yi’s side. He patted his shoulder and comforted him. “It’s alright. You just didn’t succeed in challenging yourself. It’s not embarrassing to lose to me.”

Gu Yundong covered her face. No, this was not her brother.

However, the teacher could not help but pick up a chess piece and throw it at him. “What are you happy about? It’s an unfair victory.”

Gu Yunshu said confidently and puffed out his chest. “Then do you think that what I said just now was wrong?”

The teacher choked. It really… seemed to be true.

“My elder sister said that it’s my ability to fool people until they’re crippled.” The little guy looked very proud.

Gu Yundong:”…” No, I never said that. Don’t spout nonsense.

“Now do you know how much you’ve led the children astray?” Qin Wenzheng’s familiar voice suddenly came from behind.

Gu Yundong suddenly turned her head and saw that her father and Qin Wenzheng had arrived at some point. It seemed like they had watched the entire scene?

Qin Wenzheng snorted. “Come over. I have something to tell you.”
