Chapter 124 Grandfather Qin’s Tricks

Shi Qingyan and Ji Yang received invitations from their university classmates to attend a gathering.

Shi Qingyan scoffed. Now that Yu Chao wasn’t around and no one was fawning over them, they realized his and Ji Yang’s status and were trying to curry favor.

The two immediately declined. They had nothing to say to them, and being together would only be awkward.

With nothing to do on the weekend, Shi Qingyan and Qin Tingshen returned to the Qin residence.

Grandfather Qin happily dragged the two of them to meet his old friends.

“Qingyan, when you play chess later, hold back a bit. We’ll surprise them all at the end.”

Qin Tingshen was well aware that his grandfather was a terrible chess player. Now he was asking for outside help, not afraid of the others ganging up on him.

“Don’t worry, Grandpa, I guarantee we’ll shock them.”

The grandfather and grandson made a pact, and when they arrived at their destination, four or five old men were gathered together playing chess.

“Oh, Old Qin is here.”

Grandfather Qin’s cheerful appearance surprised the others.

This old fellow always looked glum whenever he came, so why was he grinning from ear to ear this time?

“I’m here, I’m here. Let me introduce you. This is my grandson’s wife, this is Grandpa Li, this is Grandpa Wei, Grandpa Tan, and Grandpa Tao.”

They had heard long ago that Old Qin’s grandson had found a male wife, but this was the first time they had seen him.

His gentle and well-behaved appearance won the old men’s hearts.

“I must say, Old Qin, where did you find such a well-behaved grandson’s wife?”

Shi Qingyan smiled brightly, “Hello, Grandpas.”

“Hello, hello, why did you come here with Old Qin?”

This was Grandpa Tan. Shi Qingyan used his deceptive appearance, “Aren’t we here to play chess with the grandpas?”

Grandpa Li laughed heartily, “This little mouth is so sweet, it’s like it’s been smeared with honey. Old Qin really lucked out.”

Grandpa Tao: “Who says otherwise? Kid, can you play chess?”

Shi Qingyan looked at the chess pieces on the table, nodded, and then shook his head, “I know a little, but not much.”

A smile appeared on Qin Tingshen’s lips. He really didn’t spare even the elderly.

Of course, this was his grandfather’s plan. His baby was “forced” to agree.

Shi Qingyan played a game with Grandpa Wei first.

Shi Qingyan lost in just a few minutes, causing Grandfather Qin’s face to twitch.

This little thing knew how to throw the game, but he just wouldn’t throw it for him. Wasn’t that infuriating?

But he wasn’t the one who was infuriated today.

“Hahaha, kid really knows a little but not much.”

Shi Qingyan smiled, making it easy for people to drop their guard, “Grandpa Wei is still amazing.”

“Come, come, let’s play a game, you and I.”

Shi Qingyan used the same method this time, losing a game.

They could tell that this kid’s chess skills were just average.

Next, it was Grandfather Qin playing with them, with Shi Qingyan directing from the side.

Knowing that these two weren’t very good at chess, they let Shi Qingyan help from the side.

“Why did we lose again?”

Grandfather Qin grinned, not angry at all.

The other four looked at each other in confusion. What was wrong with this old thing? Was he possessed?

Usually when he lost, he couldn’t help but throw a tantrum, regretting nine out of ten moves. How could he lose so decisively today and still be so happy?

There was something fishy, definitely something fishy.

Grandpa Wei pulled Qin Tingshen aside and asked him, “Little Shen, what’s wrong with your grandpa? Why is he so strange today?”

Qin Tingshen didn’t dare reveal his grandfather’s grand plan, so he could only make an excuse: “Qingyan is with him, so he’s happy.”

Grandpa Wei looked at Shi Qingyan. He should be happy. Who wouldn’t like such a good kid?

Over here, they had already determined that the grandfather and grandson couldn’t win even together, so they chatted while playing chess.

“Haha~ I again… Huh? What’s going on? I lost?”

Grandpa Tan looked at his loss, his eyes wide, completely unable to believe it.

How did he suddenly lose?

He must have been distracted by chatting just now and made the wrong move.

Grandpa Tao chuckled, “You can even lose this? Did you throw the game for them?”

Grandpa Tan rolled his eyes, ignoring him.

Fifteen minutes later, Grandpa Tao looked at the chessboard in disbelief, rubbed his eyes, and looked again.

“I lost too? Impossible.”

Grandpa Li could tell that this kid was pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger.

“I’ll play, you kid come and play.”

“Okay, Grandpa Li.”

Grandfather Qin made way, watching Shi Qingyan play chess with him.

“Here, here.”

Grandfather Qin pointed to the chessboard, telling Shi Qingyan to place his piece where he was pointing.

Shi Qingyan saw that that spot was a guaranteed loss, and directly placed the piece in the opposite position.

In just those few minutes, Grandpa Li carefully considered each move, while Shi Qingyan glanced at the board and placed his piece.

This game of chess was played very slowly.

By the time the game was over, it was already half an hour later.

“Old Li, you lost too?”

“Kid, are you cheating?”

Shi Qingyan was amused by their ghostly expressions.

“How is it? Is my grandson amazing?”

Grandfather Qin’s mouth was about to split with laughter, and he told Qin Tingshen behind him to fan him quickly, “Didn’t eat enough? Fan faster.”

Qin Tingshen: Honoring the elderly and loving the young is a traditional Chinese virtue.

Qin Tingshen was sweating profusely, desperately waving the fan.

He really deserved to come on this trip.

The old men were also realizing what was happening. These two must have deliberately pretended to be bad at chess, and then counterattacked?

“Good for you, Old Qin. I was wondering why you were smiling so much today. So you were waiting for us here?”

“Haven’t seen you in a few days, and you’ve grown cunning.”

Grandfather Qin’s smug expression made everyone want to slap him, “How is it? Are you convinced?”

Grandpa Wei wasn’t convinced and played with Shi Qingyan, but he also lost.

“Kid, are your chess skills really that good?”

Shi Qingyan chuckled, “Not bad, I guess.”

The four of them rolled their eyes in unison.

“It’s almost noon, let’s go to my house for dinner.”

Grandfather Qin’s smiling appearance set off alarm bells for the four of them.

“Why are you suddenly inviting us to your house for dinner? Are you plotting something again?”

Grandfather Qin glared at them, “What are you talking about? How am I plotting something? My eldest grandson cooks so well, I want you to try his cooking.”

The four of them looked at Qin Tingshen and Shi Qingyan suspiciously. They all knew that Little Shen couldn’t cook. So it was this grandson?

Shi Qingyan blinked, why are you looking at me?

The four went to the Qin residence with some doubts.

Qin Tingshen regretted coming back for the hundredth time.

As soon as he came back, he was being used as a servant.

Qin Tingshen could only resign himself to going to the kitchen to cook.

The old men gathered together to chat, looking at Shi Qingyan sitting still, and asked him curiously, “Why aren’t you cooking?”

Shi Qingyan didn’t understand how they could tell that he looked like he could cook, “I can’t cook. I’ll blow up the kitchen. Do you want me to demonstrate?”

“Ah?”

“If you don’t do it, who will?”

“It can’t be Little Shen, right?”

“Doesn’t he not know how to cook?”

Shi Qingyan wagged his tail proudly, “He just learned, less than a year ago.”

The four of them: ???!!!

The four of them didn’t believe it and ran to the kitchen to watch Qin Tingshen cook.

Watching Qin Tingshen skillfully stir-fry, the four were silent.

Comparing people is infuriating.

Why was their grandson good at nothing?
