Chapter 135 Testing
Shen Guiling glanced at Zhou Yanheng with a harmless smile on her face, "Okay."
Zhou Yanheng raised the corners of his eyes slightly.
Zhou Guochao was also stunned, with a look of surprise on his face, "My grandson's chess skills are not comparable to ordinary people. Your grandfather dares to boast about this. It seems that you are quite capable, kid?"
Shen Guiling was very humble. "Mr. Zhou, you're joking. I learned how to play chess by myself. It's all unconventional. I'm just protecting my grandpa."
"Hey!" Zhou Guochao waved his hand. "It's not time for dinner yet, why not play a game now?"
The Zhou family's old man knew Shen Zhuang's temperament very well. He was not the kind of person who would show off casually. How long had Shen Guiling been in the Shen family? The Shen family was willing to use a copper mine to support him. This kid was definitely not ordinary.
"Okay! Shen Zhi, set up the chess pieces!"
Shen Zhuang agreed without hesitation. It just so happened that he also wanted to elevate Shen Guiling's status in front of everyone to avoid some ungrateful people who would be blind to his status.
Shen Qingyu raised his hand lazily, "Grandpa, it's just two people playing chess. It would be so boring for so many of us to stand around. Why not add some prizes? Let's bet on who wins and who loses."
Su Jingliu didn't bring his grandson with him, so when he heard about the possibility of betting on the outside, he immediately became interested. "That's a good idea."
Shen Zhuang naturally wouldn't refuse his guest's suggestion, so he nodded and said, "Okay, let's make a deal first. Just give some prizes to liven things up, but you're not allowed to win."
After saying that, he turned to look at the old man of the Zhou family and said, "How about the two of us old men take charge?"
"Alright!" Grandpa Zhou stood up and patted Zhou Yanheng on the shoulder. "Heng, show no mercy! Kill them all without a single one left!"
Zhou Yanheng smiled and glanced at Shen Guiling indifferently. What kind of higher education did the illegitimate child he brought back from school have? How could he compare to him?
While we were talking, the chess game was set up beside the tea table, and everyone moved into the tea room, chatting and laughing.
Shen Zhuang and the Zhou, Su and Yao families sat at the tea table drinking tea, while Shen Lanxi and Shen Qingyu stood beside them watching the game.
"Shanshan, are we going to play too?"
Jiang Huashan looked at everyone in the hall, shook his head, and then pulled Fu Suier to whisper something.
"..."
Fu Sui'er was stunned, looked at her, and nodded immediately.
"okay, I get it."
At this time, Butler Shen came over and handed them a few pens and some red paper.
Fu Suier picked up a piece of red paper, wrote a number at random, and handed it to Shen Zhi, "I bet on Brother A Ling."
Shen Zhi nodded, "Where's Miss Jiang?"
Jiang Huashan, "Do I look like I have money to spend?"
“…” The corners of Shen Zhi’s mouth twitched.
"What are you doing?"
Shen Mianzhi had just sent Yao Ge back to her room when she rushed over. She thought that since things had become so tense, there would definitely be a big quarrel, but she didn't expect that everyone was happily gathered together, some drinking tea, some playing chess.
She looked surprised and looked at Jiang Huashan and Fu Sui'er with confusion.
The two pretended to be dead and pretended not to hear anything. The smile on Shen Mianzhi's face froze a little.
Seeing this, Shen Zhi immediately told her about the chess betting and even handed her a pen and paper. "Miss Mianzhi, you've come just in time. Let's have some fun together."
Shen Mianzhi nodded, his eyes looking across the crowd at Zhou Yanheng, and somehow his face became hot again.
She quickly lowered her eyes, wrote a number casually and handed it to Shen Zhi, "Brother A Ling."
Jiang Huashan was a little surprised that she didn't beat Zhou Yanheng? It seemed that Shen Mianzhi didn't fall headfirst into the love trap.
Seeing the three girls standing aside chattering, Shen Zhuang waved and said, "The chess game is about to begin. Why don't you three come and cheer for Ah Ling?"
"Here I come, Grandpa."
Shen Mianzhi knew that Jiang Huashan and Fu Suier didn't like her, so she responded and trotted over.
Jiang Huashan and Fu Suier looked at each other and walked straight out of the main hall. Fu Suier turned and walked towards the tea table.
Shen Zhuang saw Jiang Huashan running out and looked at Fu Suier in confusion, "What happened to her?"
Fu Suier, "Nothing, Shanshan said she's going back to change clothes and freshen up."
Hearing this, Shen Zhuang didn't ask any more questions and waved his hand, "Go play over there."

Jiang Huashan left the main hall and went straight back to Juyuan. Zhang Ru heard the noise and just walked out of the kitchen when she saw her enter the attic. Then she heard the sound of the lock being locked.
Zhang Ru was confused. What happened? Her hair was a mess. Was she being scolded?
Jiang Huashan locked the door, immediately ran to the desk to turn on the phone, and then took out a pack of phone cards from a locked drawer.
In order to sneak into Fang Mei's club, she bought a hundred illegal phone cards in one go.
Jiang Huashan took one out at random and put it into her spare phone. When she was ready, she opened the list file.
That girl had said that the Shen family was their last hope, which meant that the power behind this criminal group should not be underestimated. Besides the nine great families of the four elders and five newcomers, Jiang Huashan couldn't think of anyone else who could be sanctioned only by the Shen family's help.
It just so happened that Zhou, Su and Yao were all here today, so she decided to give it a try.
She opened the dial-up interface and started dialing from the four diamond-level lists.
The first empty number.
The second one went unanswered.
Could it be that they knew it was leaked and have started to take precautions?
Jiang Huashan suppressed his suspicions and continued to dial the third number.
She dialed the number, but still no one answered. Just when she thought the call was going to be automatically hung up, it was connected.
"!"
Jiang Huashan was stunned for a moment, and before she could react, she heard three unusual "bang bang bang" sounds coming from the other side.
What do you mean?
signal?
As soon as this thought came to her mind, the other party seemed to notice something and hung up the phone immediately.
It really is a secret code!
She was so cautious! Didn't she just reveal herself?
Jiang Huashan didn't hesitate any longer and continued to dial the last diamond number.
"beep--"
It's not an empty number.
Just as she was rejoicing, the phone was connected.
"Bang bang bang—"
This time it wasn't a crisp tapping sound, but more like the sound of fingers tapping on the screen.
Jiang Huashan didn't have time to think about it, and knocked on the table three times in the same rhythm.
"beep--"
The phone was hung up immediately.
Jiang Huashan, “…”
