Chapter 230: Seasickness, Vomiting on Him (2)

The girl’s competitive spirit was ignited. She randomly grabbed another guard. “Come, I don’t believe that my chess skills are so bad. Play well. If you go easy on me, you’ll lose ten taels of silver.”

“I’ll do it!”

“I’ll go first, Miss. I definitely won’t go easy on you. Let me play first!”

A group of men surrounded her, some of them even blushing.

“Come here.”

Bai Jingyuan came out with the document and pointed at a room.

Xie Xingyun retracted his gaze calmly and nodded.

After a few rounds, Bai Xianyu lost 50 taels in a short while. Her face stiffened slightly, although 100 taels was nothing to her.

However, this was not a matter of money!

Any random person could beat her. This was too embarrassing.

After some thought, Bai Xianyu looked at Xiao Zheng, who was standing at the side.

“I’m not playing anymore. I’ll play another day.” Bai Xianyu left and quickly walked to Xiao Zheng’s side.

Xiao Zheng stood in front of the room in which Xie Xingyun and Bai Jingyuan were in discussion.

Bai Xianyu remembered that Xiao Zheng was very good at chess and waved at him.

Xiao Zheng was slightly stunned and walked over.

“What can I do for you, Fifth Miss Bai?”

“Can you teach me how to play chess?”

Xiao Zheng exclaimed, “But I still have to protect Young Master.”

Bai Xianyu shouted, “Bai Li, come and guard it.”

“Yes, Miss!”

Bai Li took Xiao Zheng’s place and stood outside the door to observe for any movement.

Xiao Zheng did not refuse. In his opinion, Fifth Miss Bai was half his Mistress now. If Young Master married her, she would be his Mistress.

Bai Xianyu glanced at the guards who were playing chess and thought that she must impress them.

She was good at zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting, but just a little lacking in chess. Since she had time, she would practice.

Xiao Zheng set up the chessboard and played a round with Bai Xianyu to grasp her foundation.

When Xie Xingyun heard Bai Xianyu’s voice, he found an excuse to leave.

She was no longer in the group of men. She was sitting opposite Xiao Zheng with a white chess piece between her fingers.

The girl supported her chin with her hand. Her exquisite face was bright and beautiful, and her hands were even fairer than chess pieces.

The young man sat upright.

He gazed at them for a moment, then finally turned and went back into the room.

In the next two days, Bai Xianyu could be said to be an obedient student. Because there was no chess manual on the ship, Xiao Zheng drew it for her with paper and pen.

Bai Xianyu would study it whenever she had the time. She would not forget to glance at it even when she was drinking tea.

She would consult Xiao Zheng when he came to their ship with Xie Xingyun.

That afternoon, Bai Xianyu fell into deep thought over a long-lost incomplete manual. She could not figure out the black piece’s next move.

When Xie Xingyun came over, he had just stepped on the deck with his black boots when the scent of the Chinese rose came from beside him.

Bai Xianyu went over to Xiao Zheng’s side. “Look at this. I thought about it the whole of last night and couldn’t sleep well. Why did he play his chess piece here?”

Xiao Zheng was already used to it. He took a look and frowned in deep thought for a while. Before he could think of an answer, he felt a gaze on him.

Xie Xingyun’s expression was calm and nothing unusual could be seen.

Xiao Zheng pondered for a moment and handed the manual to Bai Xianyu. “Let me think about it. I drew this from my memory. I have kind of forgotten.”

“Okay.” Bai Xianyu continued to study it.

Xiao Zheng did not leave with Xie Xingyun. His job had been taken over by Bai Li.

The two of them had been traveling together, there was no need to adjust to each other. Xie Xingyun and Bai Jingyuan had not said anything, so Xiao Zheng took it as tacit acceptance.

Besides, Fifth Miss Bai was a group favorite on either ship.

Xiao Zheng picked up a branch that had been blown to the deck and scratched it twice on the ground. He finally understood.

“Fifth Miss Bai, I understand! This should be the case here. If he puts his piece here, look around…”

He gestured on the chessboard that Bai Xianyu had set up and deduced for her. Unknowingly, the two of them were a little close.

Bai Xianyu supported her chin with her hand and followed her fingers. After a few rounds, her eyes lit up. “I think so. Xiao Zheng, you’re amazing.”

Xiao Zheng scratched his head shyly. “I’m not very good at it.”

“Is there anything you don’t understand? I can explain it to you.”

Bai Xianyu smiled; her lips were red and her teeth were white. “And this manual. There are some things I can’t understand. Explain them to me. And this incomplete manual…”

Xiao Zheng explained to her one by one.

After an unknown period of time, Xie Xingyun and Bai Jingyuan came out from their discussion. Bai Xianyu and Xiao Zheng were still discussing and laughing. The girl laughed so much that her face was red.

Bai Jingyuan could not help but smile when he saw Bai Xianyu smile.

Xie Xingyun left without any expression.

That evening, Xiao Zheng returned.

Bai Xianyu realized that she and Xiao Zheng both liked to study some strange chess manuals, so the two of them shared some of the incomplete manuals they had seen before and discussed them together.

Although there were no outcome in most situations, Bai Xianyu’s chess skills had improved a little in theory.

She asked the guard to bring a large table, then laid out all the chess manuals page by page and pressed them down with something.

Soon, it was night time. Green Pearl placed a lamp stand and lit a candle for Bai Xianyu, who was writing and drawing on the table.

It was said that the incomplete manual in front of her had been left behind by a master hundreds of years ago. Until now, no one had been able to see through the secrets of heaven. Although there were only a hundred or so moves, every step was a silent slaughter. It was extremely exciting.

Bai Xianyu was very focused and did not even notice the footsteps behind her.

“This move should be here.”

Bai Xianyu was stunned and turned to look at her side. Xie Xingyun had arrived beside her at some point and extended a finger calmly.

“Here… If I move my piece here,” she looked at the manual again, and the train of thought in her mind became clear instantly. “Yes, if I play it here, it will make sense..”
