BXBX NOVEL Chapter 245 - 234: Hearts Connected
Having just boasted to others about how reliable she was and showing off her impressive memory, it was slightly embarrassing to be caught cheating at chess.
When one top student encounters another, it’s a sad story.
Shuixian, if you become independent, I’ll deal with your dad. But you have to promise to accept my treatment if you can’t fulfill our agreement. As a doctor, I’ll officially help you get rid of your anorexia.”
Lily Tang focuses on the chess game, “You first have to beat me. I don’t want to entrust myself to someone with worse chess skills.”
Xiao Qian rubs her temples. She really can’t beat Lily Tang.
How on earth should she win this chess game? She’s about to lose.
Just as she’s struggling to make a decision, someone knocks on her window.
It’s already dark outside, and Lily Tang is startled by the knocking. On the window?
Isn’t this a two-story attic? Has Spider-Man come?
Xiao Qian is used to it by now, she opens the window and Yu Minglang
skillfully jumps in.
“How did you get here?”
“I came to see you – Do you have a guest?” Yu Minglang almost hugs Xiao Qian, but stops when he sees Lily Tang sitting in the room, he slams the brakes.
“Yeah, she’s my friend.” Xiao Qian takes Yu Minglang over and introduces him to Lily Tang.
“This is my boyfriend, the brother of that swindler.”
“Hello, I’m Lily Tang.” Lily Tang curiously looks at the man who came through the window, dressed in a suit and looking very serious.
However, why would such a serious man jump through windows?
“Hello, I’m Yu Minglang.” Yu Minglang walks over to the chessboard and asks
Xiao Qian,
“Playing chess?”
“I’m about to lose… you play.” Xiao Qian pushes Yu Minglang down.
Yu Minglang takes a glance and sits down to play in Xiao Qian’s place.
His logical thinking is better than Xiao Qian’s. The tables turn quickly, and now Shuixian is the one struggling.
“Chen Xiaoqian, this is cheating! You didn’t win!”
“1 couldn’t beat you, but I can deal with someone who can. Yu Minglang, will
you listen to me?”
“Yes, leader!”
Lily Tang looks at the two exchanging knowing glances and feels like she’s
been had.
“Sister, mom asked me to bring you guys some fruits-Oh, Brother Lang!”
Chen Zilong enters carrying a fruit plate and is startled.
He had been sitting downstairs the whole time and didn’t see anyone come in through the door.
Yu Minglang nods to him. “Young man, it’s good to help with chores, but you need to change the habit of barging in without knocking.”
Chen Zilong is stunned by his words.
“Mom! Brother Lang is here!” Chen Zilong runs to the hallway and yells
downstairs.
Yu Minglang isn’t bothered at being caught, after all, it’s not yet late in the night.
As Chen Zilong goes downstairs to call Jia Xiufang, Yu Minglang catches a glimpse of a red dot from the comer of his eye. He squints, takes a strong light flashlight from his belt, and scans it outside, revealing red spots in the dark corner.
Yu Minglang narrows his eyes. Is someone spying on his Qian Bao?
He opens the window and swiftly jumps out.
Lily Tang watches, dumbfounded, as Yu Minglang dashes across the roof like Spider-Man. Then, with a leap, he jumps several meters onto another building, a scene right out of an action movie.
“He…”
“He used to practice it. It’s nothing for him. Let me call him and tell him not to
hit your bodyguard.”
“Xiao Qiang, that’s Shuixian’s bodyguard. Don’t hit him.”
“Understood, leader.” Yu Minglang hangs up.
His foot is on top of one of the bodyguards, and his hand is on another who’s trying to fight back.
The Tang Family’s bodyguards are also well-trained, but they are not on the same level as Yu Minglang. Before they can figure out what’s going on, Yu Minglang descends like a shadow and sweeps one off their feet with a single move.
The poor bodyguards don’t even have time to react before they’re taken down. Hearing Xiao Qian’s phone call, they quickly nod, “Yes, Eldest Brother, we’re on the same side!”
“Oh!” After acknowledging them, Yu Minglang still throws a punch.
The punched bodyguard looks aggrieved. They already said it was a misunderstanding, but he still gets punched!
“This place isn’t for you to surveil. Don’t let me catch you staring at my girlfriend again.”
Hearing her son say Yu Minglang was here, Jia Xiufang hurries upstairs. But when she enters the room, she sees only Xiao Qian and Lily Tang. There’s no sign of Yu Minglang.
Chen Zilong, who followed her in, looks puzzled.
“Where’s Brother Lang?” Jia Xiufang asks her son.
Chen Zilong scratches his head, “I really saw him just now, right, sister?
Xiao Qian shakes her head, “Da Long, you’re hallucinating. If you’re like this, you might not even know if someone is behind you at night.” Chen Zilong shudders at Xiao Qian’s words, “Sister, can you not scare me?”
“You said he’s here, so where is he?” Xiao Qian asks.
Lily Tang watches Xiao Qian fool her brother with a straight face and looks down at the chessboard to prevent herself from laughing.
“I really saw him – Sister, did Brother Lang jump out the window?”
Chen Zilong walks to the windowsill, tries to open the window and look, but Jia Xiufang slaps him on the back of his head. “Nonsense! Would Brother Lang be as frivolous as you?”
“Sister! You saw him too, and this pretty sister saw him as well!”
Xiao Qian takes off her glasses, grabs a nearby tissue, and wipes her glasses. “I didn’t see anything.”
“Ah!” Chen Zilong starts to feel crazy.
“Aunt, are you home?” Yu Minglang’s voice comes from downstairs; this time, he’s passing through the door.
“Ah! He’s here!” Hearing the voice, Jia Xiufang quickly heads downstairs.
Chen Zilong looks dazed.
Xiao Qian pats his shoulder, “Brother, have you ever heard of deja vu? It means certain people in the world can foresee future events. What you just experienced was a premonition of what’s about to happen. Just wait – when he comes up, watch what he does.”
Yu Minglang, who is coming upstairs, hears Xiao Qian’s words.
Yu Minglang chuckles to himself but cooperates with Xiao Qian. He sits down in Xiao Qian’s previous spot and says the same thing to Chen Zilong.
“Young man, it’s good to help with chores, but you need to change the habit of barging in without knocking.”
Ah! Chen Zilong is confused; it’s exactly the same as before.
He holds his forehead, “Sister, what should I do? I’m panicking.”
Xiao Qian stands up and solemnly pats his shoulder, “Just go get your physics textbook, write your physics homework, and you’ll be fine.”
“Brother Lang, what’s really going on?” Chen Zilong asks the serious man.
“Young man, this belongs to the realm of quantum mechanics. Have you ever heard of Schrodinger’s Cat? When you push the door open, I have a 50% chance of either being present or absent. The quantum state is a mixture of presence and absence. But when you push the door, the state collapses into a solid. So now, you see me here, do you understand?”
Serious Yu Minglang cooperates with Xiao Qian with a serious expression and thoroughly fools Chen Zilong.
-I understand now. You two are ganging up on me. If you have any difficulties, just come at me together.” Lily Tang, who witnessed the whole process, feels balanced.
She is definitely not the first or last person to be fooled by Xiao Qian and Yu Minglang..
