>> Try again, fail again, fail better.

Mrs. Taya's enthusiasm for Liu Fanxu is the same as Mrs. Shinto's enthusiasm for Taya, and they are both very happy that their precocious children can find friends to play with. Of course, this kind of play is more offbeat and different from ordinary children.

After being welcomed through the door by Mrs. Taya, and after a long greeting of warmth, she was wheeled into the living room, and a large box of snacks filled her arms. She looked at Ryo Taya uncomfortably, only to find him smiling on the side. Instantly puffing up her cheeks, she 'Ling Chi' her little friend with an accusatory look, and said that she could give her back to the other party's reliable friendship?

Maybe her expression was too complaining, Ta Ya cleared her throat, got up and took the candy box in Liu Fanxu's arms, took her hand, and said to Mrs. Ta Ya, "Mom, let's go to the chess room to play chess~" Mrs. Ta Ya reluctantly let go of Liu Fanxu, and said in frustration, "Ah, I'm going to play chess again, really, I want you to spend more time with my mother." ”

Ta Yaliang laughed dryly, and pulled Liu Fanxu to leave the living room almost in despair. Liu Fanxu looked at Ta Ya Liang in confusion and asked softly, "Is it really okay to leave Aunt Ta Ya alone?" She looked lost. ”

"As long as my father and I mention Go, my mother will be like this, no way, I'm also very embarrassed~" Ta Ya Liang smiled bitterly twice and continued, "I know she can be very lonely sometimes, but I really like Go, I don't want to give up, and my father said that I have two talents for playing Go well, so so," Liu Fanxu hooked the corners of his lips, held Ta Ya Liang's hand back, and whispered comfortingly, "I believe that Aunt Ta Ya must support your dream, Xiao Liang, this is not a contradiction, just like my mother, Otherwise, why would they be willing to take us to Go classes every day, right~"

"Well, that's right." Taya nodded and smiled in response. Pushing open the closing door of the chess room, there were many people of different ages, presumably chess players who had come to attend a celebrity seminar. The appearance of Ta Ya Liang and Liu Fanxu made them temporarily look away from the chessboard, and they looked at them with a smile on their faces, no, to be exact, looking at Ta Ya Liang.

Taya Xingyang sat among them, heard the voice, raised his head to look at his son, with a smile on his face, he said, "Xiaoliang, you're back" His gaze swept over Liu Fanxu, paused, and then said, "Are you Xiaoguang?" Liu Fanxu nodded, still a little surprised in her heart, she thought that only Mrs. Taya knew about her, but she didn't expect that even Taya Xingyang knew. However, it is also true that although this father seems to have a restrained temperament and a strict expression, he actually loves and cares for his only son very much.

"Hello!" Liu Fanxu bowed to him, his expression was quite restrained, this is the reaction of a young child to a strict elder. Taya Xingyang nodded, pointed to the chessboard that had been put away in front of him, and said, "Xiaoguang, come and play a game with me, I want to know your chess strength." Sure enough, Liu Fanxu lamented in his heart, this man who is as obsessed with Go as Fujiwara Zuowei is also three sentences that do not leave the industry. She thought that after meeting him, she would be probed for chess strength, so she was not surprised at all to hear his request at this time.

Not only that, but being able to play against this Go master without Fujiwara Sawei intervening is really undesirable! So, with a sparkling wink in her eyes, she trotted joyfully to sit down opposite him, and then looked up at him expectantly. Maybe her expression was so explicit that it made the chess players around her laugh good-naturedly, and Taya Ryo also sat down next to her with her, and he was also curious about what kind of journey Xiaoguang could get with his father!

Losing is a matter of course, after all, he is the closest man to a god who can compete with Fujiwara Sawei for the final half of the goal, and of course he may not have reached that height now. However, even if this is the case, it is not an opponent who can reasonably narrow the ideal gap with Liu Fanxu, who has the intention to keep his hand, so she was tortured and killed very miserably.

Looking at the chess game that can be called miserable, Liu Fanxu drooped his head in frustration, and sure enough, he was still far away from the hand of Fujiwara Zuo as the god chasing. Ta Yaliang looked at Liu Fanxu worriedly, he carefully held Liu Fanxu's hand on his knee, and comforted him silently. Taya Xingyang looked at the chess game, and after a while, he put his hands on his sleeves and said as a matter of course, "Just like Xiaoliang, let's start with Shizi." "Huh? Liu Fanxu looked up at Taya Xingyang suspiciously, a little unsure of what she had heard.

"Little girl, don't just stare at it, call the teacher!" Ogata Seiji raised his hand and rubbed Liu Fanxu's fluffy and soft hair, and explained with a smile, "The teacher accepts you as a disciple of Taya's sect, so that you and me and Xiaoliang are all brothers and sisters of the same sect~" Liu Fanxu looked at Ogata Seiji's eyes, slowly widened, she blinked her eyes, immediately looked at Taya Xingyang, nodded happily, and said loudly, "Thank you, teacher!" ”

With the protection of the future five-time champion, even if she reveals her true chess skills in the future, it will not be particularly abrupt. This is very good, Liu Fanxu smiled and narrowed his eyes with satisfaction.

Officially recognized by Taya Xingyang, Liu Fanxu naturally became the youngest disciple of Taya. After playing this game of chess with Taya Yukiyo, he commented on it from beginning to end, and waved her and Xiaoliang to sit aside.

The two children were only allowed to observe and be taught at such a vocational seminar. However, even if you listen to different opinions, you will benefit a lot, not to mention the analysis of Taya's chess path during this period.

Since he entered the Taya Gate, Liu Fanxu will return to Taya's house with Taya Liang after the Go class every day to receive Taya's teachings. On weekends, I would also stay at Taya's house, attend seminars, and play against Taya.

Liu Fanxu no longer hides her fierceness in Go, and she is growing rapidly at a speed that Seiji Ogata and Ryo Taya can't match. On the day of her third birthday, Taya Yuki's concession to her was reduced by two.

This is a recognition of her strength and an encouragement to Ryo Taya. Liu Fanxu knew that at this moment, Xiao Liang's heart must have ignited a raging fighting spirit. She looked at Taya Yukiyo speechlessly, and found that he was looking at her and Xiaoliang with a smile on his face.

Ah, sure enough, the teacher did it on purpose, Liu Fanxu sighed helplessly. However, she is also happy to be the driving force behind Xiaoliang's growth.

Nine years later, in the Korean Chess Academy, Liu Fanxu stood in the hall on the first floor of the Korean Chess Academy with a confused face with a crossbody bag and hands behind his back. At this time, a tall young man passed by her, and the arrogant look of no one else made her frown a little unpleasantly. Another teenager behind the arrogant boy saw her standing alone in the hall, looking lost, so he took the initiative to come over and ask, "xxxxxxxx?" ”

Liu Fanxu frowned, she lowered the corners of her mouth in distress, and looked at the young man who was talking to her with a sad expression. It's really a failure in her Liu Fanxu's life! Thinking that she is so proud of her intelligence, why did she forget to learn Korean? Even if it was temporary, it was too late, and she could only rely on his micro-expressions to judge whether the Martian text that spewed out of his mouth was good or malicious.

Well, in this world full of chess addicts, there are no particularly sinful perverts, so she can probably guess that this person is actually concerned about the reason why she is here alone. Thinking of this, she explained the reason for her presence here in Chinese and Japanese, "My father came to South Korea on a business trip, he went to the building across the road to handle business, I was impatient to wait there, I heard that across the road is the chess yard, so I came here to find someone to play chess." Now, can you play chess with me? ”

The boy stared at his eyes with a confused look, obviously he didn't know Chinese or Japanese. He sighed and said to the arrogant young man standing to the side with an impatient face, "XXX, XXXXXX!" The arrogant young man snorted and strode up to her, and the teenager who was half a head taller than her lowered his eyelids with a sense of oppression, and said in Chinese, "Little girl, you came to the Korean Chess Academy to play chess?" He looked her up and down, a smile of treachery and disdain on his face, and he continued, "In that case, how about a round?" ”

"Hmm!" Hearing this, Liu Fanxu nodded happily. The arrogant boy snorted again, turned around, and said slowly, "Come with me!" Liu Fanxu obediently followed behind him, although this person was not beaten in terms of his attitude or the content of his speech, but this person's eyes were very clear, and his heart and eyes were not bad. So, he's just a spoiled kid with duplicitous.

Such a young man is not a bad person, so Liu Fanxu is not worried about his safety at all. When she followed him into the central game room of the Korean Chess Academy, it was full of Korean graduate students who were cleaning up the chess table. She guessed that he had brought her here on purpose just to teach her a lesson about her arrogance. Although it has a prank element unique to young people, the original intention is good. However, he underestimated her strength and overestimated his own chess strength.

In South Korea, she doesn't need to hide herself so hard at all, when the other party is forced to admit defeat in the middle game. She narrowed her eyes happily and sighed in her heart, for so many years, she hadn't played chess so comfortably for a long time. This time, it was very satisfying! She blinked her eyes and said softly to the young man sitting across from her with her head lowered and her hair covering her eyes, "Do you want to review that?" ”

This is a habit she has developed under Taya's door, since Taya Yukiyo said to her that she doesn't have to let her son anymore, whether it is with Xiaoliang or the senior brother Ogata Seiji or the junior brother Ashihara, after the game is over, it will be reviewed and reviewed. In addition to them, she, like Xiaoliang, has only played chess with professional chess players who visit Taya Yukiyo's house and guests at the Go salon. So, this time, she also said it according to her habit.

It's a pity that the other party didn't appreciate it, and he didn't respond to her words. Liu Fanxu puffed out his cheeks, looked around, and found that the onlookers, big and small, were all stunned and stupid. It seems that it is impossible to find another opponent to play chess. Really, why are these people so poor in their ability to resist blows. Obviously, every time Xiao Liang loses chess, he will be in a state of full explosion of the small universe with more fighting spirit.

"Well, then, I take my leave! Agreed! She reluctantly put the white pieces on the chessboard into the chess box, stood up on the floor, and saw that the surroundings were still quiet, she frowned puzzled, and turned around to leave. However, at this time, the arrogant boy who had just returned to the COS zombie suddenly raised his head and said in Chinese in a hoarse voice, "Your name!" Sue me by your name! ”

"Huh?" Liu Fanxu was stunned, she turned around and looked at him with some surprise. She hesitated for a moment, but she still didn't dare to say her real name, even though this was South Korea. She pursed her lips and replied softly, "My name is Hikaru Shinto." ”

"Hikaru Shinto?" The boy stood up abruptly, his eyes widening in disbelief, and he yelled angrily, "Japanese? Damn it! I thought you were Chinese! "Well, Liu Fanxu is full of cows in her heart, she really wants to say that she is indeed a descendant of Yan and Huang, although she was later a British nobleman, but she will definitely not be Japanese. However, now she can't care about these small details for the sake of the task.

Liu Fanxu's teary eyes were hazy, which made the young man who still wanted to get angry close his mouth suddenly, he raised his hand irritably and rubbed his hair, and continued embarrassedly, "I'm Gao Yongxia, remember this name!" I'm going to beat you in an official tournament in the near future! Liu Fanxu blinked, suddenly grinned and squinted, she nodded with crooked eyebrows and said, "Okay~ I'll wait for you to defeat me!" "Although it is impossible to realize the fantasy! Liu Fanxu turned around, and said with dark eyes.

I don't know what kind of bloody storm I set off in the Korean Chess Academy, Liu Fanxu jumped back to the hall, and just happened to see his father who walked into the gate and came to look for someone. Liu Fanxu trotted over, looked up at Mr. Shinto with a helpless smile on his face, saw that he just raised his hand and rubbed the top of her hair in frustration, and taught him softly, "Don't run around in the future, Xiaoguang, Dad will be worried~ Although you are about to become a big child, you still need Dad and Mom now!" ”

Liu Fanxu was stunned, looking at his sentimental face, Liu Fanxu nodded subconsciously and replied softly, "Okay"

This is the end of the three-day trip to South Korea. On the return plane, Jinto's father wanted to speak several times, and after Liu Fanxu couldn't ignore his desire, he took the initiative to open the conversation box and asked, "Dad, what do you want to say?" Is it about me running to the Korean Chess Academy? In the past three days, the only thing that made him so unable to let go of his mind was this one thing, so Liu Fanxu easily guessed the direction of Mr. Jinto's conversation.

"Huh? Well! Mr. Shinto nodded, and then he said, "Xiaoguang, I want to become a professional chess player." ”

"Huh? Well! Liu Fanxu nodded as a matter of course, "Yes, didn't my mother and father already know that I was under the Taya Gate?" ”

"Yes, you've already decided, but Mom and Dad didn't really realize it during this time." Mr. Jinto's tone was very melancholy, which made Liu Fanxu frown, she glanced at him, and said in a thoughtful tone, "Don't my father and mother agree with my decision?" ”

"Huh? How so? Mr. Shinto immediately retorted, "Xiaoguang, you misunderstood, Dad won't object, after so many years, how could Dad and Mom not know that you are talented in Go!" Even the master who stood at the top of the world was full of praise for you, so how could we doubt your talent. He waved his hands and continued, "Your mother and I just feel a little lonely, you have been a very worrying child since you were a child, and you are so lucky to be able to identify your own strengths at such an early age, and to be fortunate to be guided by a famous teacher." However, while being proud of you, Mom and Dad will also feel a little lost. Well, don't worry about it! It's just a little willfulness as a parent, hahaha! ”

Liu Fanxu lowered her eyelids, the expression on her face seemed to cry and laugh, her lips were tightly pursed, and for a while, people couldn't see through what she was thinking. However, she didn't last long in this state, she slowly raised her head, squinted at Mr. Shinto, completely hidden the moisture in her eyes that had not yet dissipated under her eyelashes, she said, "Dad and Mom, I know that I am a failed child, I will not be spoiled, I will not be willful, I will not ask you for help, this makes you lose a lot of the fun of being parents, so, have a second child!" ”

"What!?" Mr. Shinto almost squirted out the soda that had been put in his mouth, his eyes widened, and he stammered, "What are you talking about, little kids!" ”

"Where is the child, I am telling my father very seriously, I want to have a brother or sister, is this wrong?" Liu Fanxu asked with an innocent face.

"In short, when you return to Tokyo, if your teacher agrees, your father or mother can accompany you to the Japan Chess Academy to register for the professional exam." After Mr. Shinto finished speaking, he closed his eyes and no longer faced his troubled precocious child. Therefore, it is also a burden for children to be too smart.

Liu Fanxu looked at his childish appearance, smiled and lowered his eyelashes, and stopped talking. She turned her head through the round window and looked at the sea of clouds outside, feeling extremely peaceful. I don't know if Ta Ya Liang will miss her at this time, after all, since they met, she and Xiao Liang have never been separated for such a long time.

Speaking of Ta Yaliang, he has been very spirited since Liu Fanxu followed his father to South Korea. This very unmotivated appearance has lasted for three days, and even Taya Yukiyo feels a little helpless. Ogata Seiji pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose in the gap between Taya's departure to serve tea in the chess room, and laughed with a smile, "Speaking of which, these two childhood sweethearts have really not been separated for so long. It's only been three days, and it's been so chaotic, it seems that Xiaoliang and Xiaoguang are inseparable in this life. ”

When Seiji Ogata said this, his eyes kept watching Taya's reaction. It's a pity that Taya Yukiyo is still the same solemn appearance that scares crying children. He put down the chess pieces in his hand and said to everyone's surprise, "Isn't this a matter of course? As early as when the two children met, Xiaoguang was already the person that Xiaoliang recognized for his life. ”

This sentence is ambiguous, and it can be understood as a rival relationship in Go, as well as a couple relationship between men and women. However, it is really too early to make a conclusion at this time, and when the two children have not yet figured out their feelings, they adults still continue to watch silently.

Before his son determined his mind, he first won the trend of public opinion, even if there are any changes in the future, it will not affect the master-apprentice relationship between him and Xiaoguang, let alone the rival relationship between Xiaoguang and Xiaoliang. For the sake of these two children, the teacher really took great pains! Ogata Seiji pushed his glasses, hooked the corners of his lips, and saw Taya Liang walking in with a tray, so he deliberately reminded, "Anyway, Koko is today's plane," he raised his wrist and looked at the time, "It should be five o'clock, do you want to pick her up?" ”

Hearing Ogata Seiji mention Liu Fanxu, Taya Ryū's footsteps paused, he suddenly looked up at Ogata Seiji, moved his lips, but failed to say the wish in his heart. Seiji Ogata naturally saw Ryo Taya's reaction, and he curled the corners of his lips and was about to continue speaking. Taya Xingyang suddenly said, "Xiaoguang is going to South Korea with her father, so naturally she doesn't need you to pick up the airport, but she may not come tonight, after all, she has been running around for so many days, and she should have a good rest when she comes home." ”

"No, no, Xiaoguang won't miss the time to play against her father, the first two days were forced to play, but she has played with me on the Internet every day. So," he pursed his lips at the end, his face firm, and he was very sure of his speculation, "Xiaoguang will definitely come tonight!" ”

"Oh?" Ogata Seiji raised his eyebrows, raised his hand to touch his chin, and said with a playful expression, "So Xiaoliang is willing to gamble with the senior brother?" ”

Taya Liang looked away angrily, not looking at Seiji Ogata's face. Seeing that his son was being molested by his own disciples, Ta Ya Xingyang continued to play the score without changing his face, and he was actually very curious about why Xiao Liang was so sure that Xiao Guang would come to this matter. Could it be that Xiao Guang sued him? No, it won't. Otherwise, Xiao Liang would not have shown a hesitant look under Ogata's teasing.

As time passed slowly, Ta Ya Liang hung his head, and his glowing dark green hair fluttered gently in his ears as he moved. Just when Taya Liang thought that she had guessed wrong, Mrs. Taya's voice sounded outside the door, and she said, "Really, Xiaoguang, didn't you just come back from Korea today?" Why don't you rest at home, is Go so attractive? One by one, they are like this, and when they encounter Go, they all become crazy, and they are all chess idiots! ”

"No, I'm missing my aunt before I give up the delicious meal made by my mother, and I rushed all the way over, so please leave dinner to you, and you must make some dishes that Xiaoguang likes to eat!" Liu Fanxu's voice echoed happily outside the door, her footsteps getting closer and closer, hit Ta Yaliang's heart at once, he stared at the door of the chess room with burning eyes, just waiting for the moment she opened the door, and immediately showed her a lovely smile that he hadn't seen for a long time, he said, "Xiaoguang, you're here~"

Liu Fanxu responded with a smile, "Well, Xiaoliang, I'm here!" After they said hello, they tacitly walked to the chess table and sat down, as if Liu Fanxu hadn't just returned from South Korea, and Ta Yaliang hadn't been in the chaos of her mind for three days. Ogata Seiji's eyes lit up and his lips moved, but he didn't say what was in his heart.

Taya Yukiyo was still playing the score on his own, but if you looked closely, you would see that there was a smile on his solemn face that was not easy to be noticed.

ended the game with Xiaoliang, and after a simple review and review, the two tacitly packed up the chessboard. She raised her eyes and looked at Ta Yaliang, hesitated for a moment, and asked in a low voice, "Xiao Liang, when are you going to take the vocational exam?" ”

"Huh?" Ta Yaliang was stunned for a moment, he blinked his eyes to meet Liu Fanxu's gaze, and replied without hesitation, "I want to be with you." ”

"Huh?" Liu Fanxu had a bitter face and complained depressedly, "Why didn't you say it earlier, I still plan to wait for you all the time!" So you're waiting for me to make a decision! ”

"Huh? Are you sure? Tayaryo also puffed out his cheeks, and at this time, there was a burst of laughter from the side. At the same time, they looked at Seiji Ogata, who was smiling very happily, with a wooden expression, as if this man was really childish, and we didn't know him in general. Ogata Seiji raised his hand and took off his glasses and wiped them, coughed lightly a few times and cleared his throat before he spoke, "Since that's the case, then don't wait, you can register for this year's vocational exam tomorrow!" ”

""Ta Yaliang and Liu Fanxu looked at each other across the chessboard, she suddenly showed a bright smile and declared war, "So Xiaoliang, the record of total victory, I will accept it unceremoniously!"
