Knowing that Cai Shanshan was going to the UK as an exchange student, Li Xiangping didn't take it too seriously.

Although he talks about "my daughter-in-law" from time to time, but the two of them didn't succeed in their last life after all, right? And in his previous life, Li Xiangping really didn't treat Cai Shanshan as his own dish.

Well, although after being reborn once, he has a much better impression of Cai Shanshan, and he seems to have a little feeling, but Cai Shanshan is only 16 years old now, and she is still a yellow-haired girl, and Li Xiangping is not Lolita, so even if he has a little feeling for the other party, it will not make him feel anything.

That evening, Li Xiangping went to a dinner party with several close friends, nominally to celebrate Cai Shanshan as an honorable exchange student.

Well, as the saying goes: revolution is to invite guests to dinner, especially newcomers like Li Yuanhu and Lao Cai, so over the years, such a dinner is basically their daily routine, in the words of the old man of Li Xiangping's family: he is now either inviting guests to eat every day, or walking on the way to invite guests to eat, so such dinners are commonplace.

At the dinner that night, as the "party", Cai Shanshan was of course the first focus, and as the popular fried chicken in the world chess today, Li Xiangping didn't even mix the second focus, not because of anything else, because tonight, Zhao Daokai's school bully mother came.

You must know that as a super scholar, Professor Liao rarely attends such occasions, so since she is admiring her face today, even Li Xiangping has to avoid it.

Well, Li Xiangping has always thought that her Aunt Liao is really a person with her own aura, she and Li Yuanhu and Zhao Jiadong are middle school classmates, it is said that since childhood, not only Zhao Daokai's father has been eaten to death by her, in fact, even Li Yuanhu is a little afraid of her, and under the influence of the two elders, Li Xiangping is also in awe of this when he is young, as long as this Aunt Liao is present, he will be much more restrained than usual.

No, today is because of the arrival of this person, so even if Li Xiangping is a human being in two lifetimes, even if he is now famous and has made a great name in the Go world, he can only sit there honestly with Zhao Daokai like a real 16-year-old child, watching her, an old scholar, and Cai Shanshan, a new scholar, talk happily there.

“..... Mauplis? Oh Shanshan is amazing, this is a famous school in the UK, it is said that many members of their royal family will choose to study there, maybe after you go, you will become a classmate of a prince or princess......"

"Aunt Liao, I actually don't want to go to ....."

"Go, why don't you go, Auntie thinks it's good for you to go there to increase your knowledge......"

Seeing that the two of them were chatting hotly, Li Xiangping and his best friend exchanged words:

"Hehe, I said Kai, how do I feel that your mother seems to like Cai Shanshan very much, look at her eyes, how can she look at her daughter-in-law."

Zhao Daokai said with a smile: "It's normal to look at a daughter-in-law, don't forget, you also have to call my mother godmother, and the daughter-in-law of the godson is of course also a daughter-in-law." ”

Li Xiangping listened to it: "Haha, you guy....."

Li Xiangping's low smile was still seen by his stepmother Lin:

"What are you two talking about and laughing so happily?"

Li Xiangping replied: "Hehe, I didn't laugh anything. ”

Zhao Daokai said serious nonsense: "Hehe, Aunt Lin is wrong, right? Xiangping is not happy, he is sad about someone's departure, no, didn't I enlighten him just now. ”

"Hahahaha."

The room was full of acquaintances, so everyone burst into laughter. Of course, it may not be accurate to say "all", at least the two parties are not laughing. And just when everyone was laughing, Li Xiangping, one of the parties, peeked at the other party, only to find that the other party also happened to look over.

I have to say that at that moment, Cai Shanshan's shy and timid expression really made Li Xiangping's heart flutter.

It's just that, after the dinner that night, everyone still did what they had to do, Cai Shanshan was preparing to go abroad, and Li Xiangping, of course, was preparing for the game.

The time has come to November, and after entering this month, Li Xiangping still has a lot of games. However, there is no doubt that among the many competitions he needs to participate in, the two trilogy against South Korea's big and small Li must be the top priority this month, and even in Li Xiangping's own mind, the importance of these two trigrams is even greater than the "Chunlan Cup" final that will be launched at the end of this month.

In the match against South Korea's big and small lee, the match with Da Li was slightly earlier, the first two game dates were November 11 and November 13, if the first two games were 1-1, then there was no break between the second game and the third game, and the 14th went directly to the tiebreaker.

The format is the same as Xiao Li's, but the dates are the 22nd, 24th and 25th of this month, and not only that, these two trilogy games are played in South Korea, so after entering November, Li Xiangping put aside other distractions and prepared for these two games without distraction.

On November 3, Li Xiangping went to Lu Province to participate in a round of siege, and he hurried back to the capital. The reason why he was in such a hurry was not because of anything else, because on the second day, there was an important game in the capital, but this game had nothing to do with Li Xiangping himself, it was someone else's game. This is this year's "China-South Korea Tianyuan Confrontation Match", and the two sides are Chang Hao and Li Canghao-----

Li Xiangping personally believes that if you stand in the perspective of preparation, then it may be more direct to hit the opponent's game on the spot than to look at the effect of his chess game, which is why he hurried back.

Bilateral confrontation like this was also a relatively important international event in the early years, especially when the world series was relatively rare in the last century, such bilateral confrontation was even more important, such as the "Sino-Japanese celebrity confrontation", "Sino-Japanese Tianyuan confrontation" and so on, in these events, left a lot of classic stories.

However, now, due to the increasing number of World Series, this kind of bilateral confrontation seems to be less important than before, and the attention of chess fans cannot be compared with that of World Series.

It's just that the attention of chess fans will decrease, but the participating chess players themselves usually pay more attention, especially for Chinese and Korean chess players, and there are two main reasons for this-----

First, the prize money for this kind of tournament is not high for Japanese players, but it is a huge prize money for Chinese and Korean players. For example, this time Chang Hao participated in the "Tianyuan War", he won this title in China, and the championship prize was actually about 200,000 RMB, but if he won the Sino-Korean Tianyuan confrontation, the prize money would be almost 200,000.

2 to 3 games are 200,000, and it is still a few games that are not very stressful, so for professional chess players, such a game is very good.

Second, although the level of this kind of competition is not high, the participants are all winners of titles in their respective countries. If you can get the title in your respective country, you will definitely not be a general, you must be a master of fame.

Since he is a master of fame, most of them will attach more importance to this kind of bilateral confrontation of a personal nature-----

Not for anything else, just for their own personal "preaching", then they will attach great importance to this kind of chess game between two people.

For example, the two parties this time, Chang Hao and Da Li are also old rivals, although their previous records were one-sided, and because Chang Hao has never won the world championship, the status of the two is not at the same level.

However, don't forget that Chang Hao also defeated Da Li in Fanqi, and he is the only non-Korean player in the entire world chess world to beat Da Li in Fanqi.

Considering that in the past two years, Da Li has been "suppressed" by Li Xiangping in a row, not to mention that he has been at the end of the hero, but it always looks like he is going downhill, at the very least, Da Li no longer looks like he is at his peak.

Da Li, who was born in 75, is 28 years old this year, and Chang Hao, who was born in 76, is now 27 years old, so the two of them play such a chess game at this time-----

There is nothing to say, both of them must be very eager to "preach" in their hearts.

Of course, what the two of them think is their business, for Li Xiangping, he deliberately rushed back to the capital this time, of course, he still wants to observe Da Li's current chess up close, see his current state, see if he has "new kung fu" now, and prepare for his game in a week.

The game was held in a club not far from the chess academy, and on the day of the game, when Li Xiangping came to the arena, there was no doubt that the reporters who had already arrived at the scene would of course let him "say a few words".

"Xiangping, who do you think will win this time?"

"Hehe, it's hard to say, it's really hard to say this time....."

Li Xiangping and the reporter laughed: "In all fairness, if you only talk about strength and competition experience, then Da Li should have a slight upper hand, but to be honest, I think the gap between the two is very small, especially the technical level, there is actually no gap at all, don't forget, when I was in the last round of the armor, Brother Chang cut me a plate, so I think he still has a good chance to win this time...... Well, five-five, I think this time, the two of them should be five-five......."

However, it is a pity that Li Xiangping seems to be "forcibly opening five or five" this time, and two days later, the "China-South Korea Tianyuan Confrontation" ended, and Da Li won 2-0 clean sheet Chang Hao.

The score is not the point, but the more important thing is that the technical content shown by Da Li surprised Li Xiangping, and he almost won the two games in a crushing way.

After the game, Chang Hao left the arena almost with a blushing face, and Li Xiangping, who watched the whole game, also had a grim expression.

"Brother Ding'an, how do you feel after watching it this time?"

"Alas, Xiangping Xiaoyou was really right before, this person's comprehension is indeed extremely high, Ding'an thinks that for the comprehension of those laws in the later generations, in addition to us, this person should understand the deepest."

"Oh?"
