Chapter Thirty-Five: The Night of the Emerald Tree

(Thanks to the alliance leader of "Small World Big Scenery" for rewarding, thank you for the bear chubby reward plus more owes three more, two-in-one update)

Cheng Mo was not frustrated by Li Jiting's unreliability, anyway, he has never liked to rely on others, someone to teach, it is best to take fewer detours, no one to teach, he slowly explored.

He went back to his room, locked the door and fastened the burglar chain, and walked to the living room.

This is a luxurious Bao Tijia suite that made Cheng Mo feel a little uneasy when he first came in, even if he is a billionaire now, but sleeping in a luxurious room for 2,700 euros a night still feels a little too extravagant and wasteful.

However, that was just the beginning of the feeling, and now he already thinks that the two thousand seven hundred euros are worth it, because this suite is full of details, many of the designs are ingenious, lamps and furniture, textile fabrics, walls, mirrors are all with ancient Rome solemn and gorgeous modern design, neither too classical nor too modern, to paraphrase an advertising slogan that is "simple but not simple".

Grey wooden floors covered with custom dyed New Zealand wool rugs, braided fringed leather frames and antique ornaments on the table depict understated sophistication.

What's more, it has the best view of the Emerald and the spacious white marble balcony with a view of Tuscany's many timeless attractions, including the Arno River and the Ponte Vecchio, especially at night, when you think that the city deserves its name as beautiful as the city in front of you.

Living here is a reward for the senses.

Because there were still more than ten or twenty minutes before the carrier was activated again, Cheng Mo pushed open the white glass lattice wooden door and walked onto the balcony.....

When Cheng Mo walked to the edge of the balcony and propped his elbows on the white jade-like marble railing, he noticed that there was also a person standing on the balcony of the next room, this person naturally could not be someone else, it could only be Xie Minyun who lived in the room next to him.

He turned his head slightly and saw Xie Minyun wearing a milky silk long-sleeved pajamas, holding his hands on his chest, looking at the silver fairy tale palace in the blue night - the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Hundred Flowers, the huge red dome was like a brilliant crown of the beautiful peninsula of the Apennines.

The ties and skirt corners of Xie Minyun's silk pajamas, blown by the evening breeze, were dancing lightly, and her jet-black hair was also lifted like a timeless note, fluttering lightly in the air.

Because she appeared in this incomparable landscape, and this incomparable scenery became a dreamy heaven, Cheng Mo had no doubt that if Botticelli saw her at this moment, he would not have minded that Xie Minyun was an Oriental, and he used her as a model to paint a portrait of Venus.

"Hey!" Seeing that Xie Minyun was turning his head to look at him, Cheng Mo, who had no time to withdraw his gaze, took the initiative to say hello.

"Good evening!" Xie Minyun replied, pulling back her somewhat messy hair.

"Can't you sleep?" Poor Cheng Mo, who had little experience alone with girls, didn't know how to chat for a while, so he said the stupidest opening sentence.

If a different boy said this to Xie Minyun, it is estimated that Xie Minyun would not be too lazy to respond, but if this person is Cheng Mo, Xie Minyun will carefully think about what Cheng Mo means by saying this, is he calculating this, a smart and cunning person like him will definitely not say a word that obviously should not be his style for no reason.

God is pitiful, Cheng Mo was just at this moment, he was shocked by the incomparable night view of Fei Lengcui and Xie Minyun's irresistible beauty, his mind was blank, and he didn't have time to think at all, so he just said something stupid.

"Maybe it's because I drank a little too much coffee during the day, and I was going to sleep when I was blowing the wind!" Xie Minyun said lightly.

However, in fact, she was speculating in her heart: "Is it testing my mental activities? He won't know from Tang Wenjun that I took the initiative to ask to stay, right? What can I do? I absolutely can't admit it! I must insist that Tang Wenjun made a mistake!!" Thinking of the end, Xie Minyun was still a little flustered, and his expression became a little stiff, so his attitude became more and more indifferent.

"I really troubled you yesterday, senior sister, I will definitely find a way to repay you....." Cheng Mo, who had not opened WeChat at all, misunderstood Xie Minyun's meaning, he remembered that his attending doctor saw that he had a bad relationship with his father, so he comforted him: "For those who can accompany you to the hospital, you must be grateful." ”

"No, I don't want you to thank you, I'm just saying that I drank a little too much coffee during the day, and I didn't mean to ask for credit! Besides, I didn't do anything, I just lay on the side of the bed and fell asleep.....

Xie Minyun's voice gradually lowered when he said that, and both of them remembered the same thing: one was that his hand had been held by him for a long time, and the other was that he had held her hand for a long time.

In the afternoon, when they visited the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore and the Uffizi Gallery, both of them forgot about the events of the morning because they were so absorbed in the wonderful world of art that they remembered at this moment, and the scene that was briefly forgotten last night came back to their minds.

Xie Minyun wanted to grasp her hand so tightly, her face was a little red, and she didn't have the courage to continue to stay on the balcony, and said softly: "I'll go back to sleep...."

"Well, I'll go back to sleep too, good night!Senior Sister!" Cheng Mo was naturally embarrassed to stay on the balcony.

"Good night. Xie Minyun said.

So they turned around and prepared to leave.

After taking two steps, Xie Minyun turned around and called Cheng Mo: "Oh! By the way, I forgot to tell you, Fu Yuanzhuo called me and asked me if I was with you, what I said..... No, tell him you left with your dad's friend, and I don't know where you went, I.... I'm still in Rome..... I won't be back to Huaxia in a few days....."

Cheng Mo nodded "oh", and said "Okay!" again, indicating that he understood what Xie Minyun meant.

"Hmm~~!As for ..... That one..... I just don't want others to misunderstand......" Although Xie Minyun was facing Cheng Mo, his eyes were a little wandering, obviously a little difficult to talk about lying.

"I understand....." Cheng Mo hesitated for a moment and said: "I don't say anything about knowing Napoleon VII, my cousin and Tang Wenjun saw the two of us entering the closed oil painting gallery, and heard the security guard mention Prince Napoleon, so I will have some doubts and test you." ”

Cheng Mo never liked to explain, this is the first time.

"I didn't disbelieve you. ”

"Hmm. Cheng Mo nodded, he didn't say "thank you", that was because Xie Minyun said "no disbelief", this is not trust from the heart, just trust in his own judgment, not intuitive trust. The difference between this and "I believe in you" is not small.

"Fu Yuanzhuo and Yan Yitong seem to care about you, I think you should call them the most. ”

"Senior sister, I'm not as impersonal as you think. ”

"But I think you're not only sensitive, but also very closed-minded! Like a turtle, when you are touched, you immediately retract into your protective shell!" Xie Minyun said unceremoniously, obviously she was still a little resentful because she didn't get the response she deserved for her initiative in the past few days.

"Turtle, at least the turtle is just protecting itself and not harming others, unlike someone, who is just a hedgehog who arms himself into an impregnable fortress, protecting himself at the same time, but also hurting others..."

"You ....."

Cheng Mo immediately said: "Don't sit in the right seat!

Xie Minyun sneered, "Speaking of empathy, I thought you were injured too!"

Hearing this, Cheng Mo was silent for a moment before saying softly: "Sometimes, if people are not injured, they will not grow..... So being too afraid of getting hurt is also a kind of cowardice...... Do you say yes, Senpai?"

Xie Minyun watched Cheng Mo standing in the dim light, his eyes were as bright as stars in the sky, and he bit his lip, "Are you asleep now?"

"Sleeping. Cheng Mo said directly without mercy.

"I can't sleep, I've come to play chess with you. Xie Minyun didn't plan to let Cheng Mo go so easily, the more he refused, the more she wanted to press step by step.

"I only play flying chess and backgammon .... If you want to think about it, let's do it another day!" Cheng Mo had already reached the time when he could activate the carrier, and he was still thinking about entering the carrier to see some details, so he naturally didn't want to agree.

"What if you said it would repay me, now you want to play chess with me, you have to shirk it?" Xie Minyun sneered.

"......" Cheng was speechless.

"Hmph!" Xie Minyun snorted coldly and turned around and walked towards the room.

Cheng Mo had no choice but to say to Xie Minyun's back: "Then let's say okay, we only play three games...."

Hearing that Cheng Mo compromised, the corners of Xie Minyun's mouth curved, and then he turned his head and said with a serious expression: "Okay, the three rounds are very fast." ”

Cheng Mo ignored Xie Minyun's confident declaration, and asked directly: "Am I going to your room?" or are you coming to my room?"

Thinking that there were still a lot of embarrassing personal belongings in his room, Xie Minyun said, "I'll go to your room!"

A moment later, there was a knock on Cheng Mo's door, Cheng Mo went to open the door, first unlocked it, and made sure it was Xie Minyun, then untied the anti-theft chain hanging on the door, and then opened the door and turned sideways to let Xie Minyun in.

Xie Minyun, who was holding a mobile phone, walked into Cheng Mo's room, "It's quite cautious!"

"Get used to it. ”

"Yicheng or what?" Xie Minyun asked as he walked towards the living room.

Yicheng is easy to flash back, and it's easy to drop out...."

Xie Minyun glanced at Cheng Mo and asked, "You don't want to reveal your ID, so you don't go to Yicheng!"

"Yes, because the level is really not high, don't let you see the joke. "In fact, Cheng Mo's rank in Yicheng is D9, that is, the professional ninety-nine duan, and he once played against Nie, a professional nine-dan national player named Yuemingzhong, with a record of two wins and two losses.

Xie Minyun didn't dare to believe half a word of Cheng Mo now, she knew that Cheng Mo would never hesitate when he should lie, not as a last resort, let alone in the limelight, seeing Cheng Mo say this, he was even more vigilant, and planned to go all out at the beginning.

Walking into the living room, the two sat down opposite each other on the black marble coffee table, and the cold and emerald night outside the window was like blue amber, quietly enveloping the whole world.

Xie Minyun took out his mobile phone, opened the game of Go and added a string of garbled IDs to Cheng Mo, then set up a room, sent an invitation to Cheng Mo, and when Cheng Mo entered the room, he put the mobile phone on the coffee table with a reverent expression.

Cheng Mo glanced at Xie Minyun's ID: XXX-MY, 3 battles won all 20K level accounts, 20K is the novice level, it should be the same as his garbled account, it is an account that is not used at all, and it is only used occasionally to relax the brain.

In the 20-second rapid chess, Xie Minyun took the lead in black and used the "Star Worry-free Corner" to start, while Cheng Mo calmly responded without saying a word, and suddenly played a very passionate play in the 20th hand, and Xie Minyun was surprised, she originally thought that Cheng Mo was a steady and steady type.

Xie Minyun was not affected by Cheng Mo's imaginative chess, but in view of Cheng Mo's penchant for the field, he made the first move to be strong, grabbed the ground, and planned to get enough of the eyes, and then hit the opponent technically and psychologically.

However, he did not expect Cheng Mo's 28th move to continue to "fly" lightly, and it was difficult for Xie Minyun to understand Cheng Mo's intentions for this "fly", so the 43rd hand "leaned" here, and there was a problem with the overall direction, which caused black to be at a disadvantage in the subsequent engagement.

Because Xie Minyun "leaned" out, Cheng Mo always had sniper means in the 88th position. After the hand-to-hand contact, Cheng Mo ate the middle two sunspots with his 70th hand, and the situation was quite good. Then Cheng Mo changed his aesthetic style, first "playing" in the 94th position and 96th position, sealing the head of the lower left block of black chess leading to the middle abdomen, forcing black to return to a single official, and then attacking the weakness of black chess from 88, forming a situation of white chess superiority.

Next, although Xie Minyun tried his best to resist, he couldn't bear Cheng Mo and "topped" and "leaned", although Xie Minyun tried his best to entangle Cheng Mo, but he was firmly suppressed by Cheng Mo, and he couldn't bear it in 178 hands, although in the first game, it was not that Xie Minyun was ravaged by Cheng Mo in terms of the situation, but it was also a fierce bullying of Xie Minyun.

Xie Minyun didn't expect Cheng Mo to be so difficult to deal with, so good at static braking, balanced calculation, and the 20-second rapid chess error rate is terrible, it is really a very tough opponent.

But Xie Minyun was not a little discouraged and afraid, she didn't feel that she couldn't defeat Cheng Mo, judging from the first game, Cheng Mo's weaknesses were also obvious, the layout and overall situation were relatively flat, and the overall feeling was slightly inferior.

So soon, the two of them started the second game, this game was very exciting, Cheng Mo held black first, initially in the upper left corner of the robbery, Cheng Mo eliminated the robbery, black chess was able to play two hands in the middle of the abdomen, Dawei look.

Then Cheng Mo made something out of nothing, and played chess in the black space on the left, and the means were extremely strange and convincing. As a result, there was another catastrophe, and Cheng Mo won the robbery again, knocking out nearly 20 black pieces.

The sound of the grape in the online game is beautiful, but black pierces the upper right white space with the help of robbery, and turns the white disc in the middle belly into rootless duckweed. If the middle belly is completely empty, the white disc is empty.

Then Cheng Mo dispatched again in the midbelly, and his methods were ghostly, which opened Xie Minyun's eyes. There was a big catastrophe on the chessboard for the third time, but at this time Xie Minyun already had a big advantage, seeing that black chess could not support it, but he did not expect that black chess had the means to obtain "co-living" first, and the periphery had been tightened by black chess, plus the black chess first cut off Xie Minyun's upper left white three sons, surrounded the middle abdomen and big empty, and directly locked the victory.

In the second game, Xie Minyun lost.

Xie Minyun's face was flushed, and he looked like he was emotionally unstable due to the upsurge of qi and blood, and quickly clicked to play another game.

Cheng Mo looked at Xie Minyun, she was sitting opposite, with a wide T-shirt over her white silk pajamas, but she couldn't hide her surging majesty at all, and immediately looked down at her phone, "It's okay to only play three plates!"

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up, I'll definitely win you in this game....."

However, this game ended faster, there were not many highlights in this game, Cheng Mo's white chess to scrape the black dragon in the middle of the belly was very compact, and finally although the black dragon in the belly of the black chess was able to escape, but the black big piece of chess on the left suffered the disaster of the pond fish, and was severely abused by the white chess, and the white chess was out, no, it was the white chess game that won.....

At the end of the third set, Cheng Mo breathed a sigh of relief, "Senior sister is finished in three sets, let's rest early!"

Xie Minyun stubbornly clicked on the start again, "Let's do it again...."

"It's really not going to work.... It's not like you don't know that I have a heart attack, and I can't keep up with my physical strength, and besides, I really want to sleep!"

"I don't want you to exercise, just sitting, what kind of physical strength does it consume you?"

"Playing chess is also very physically demanding, right?"

"Next game, next game, I promise to go back to sleep. ”

"Senior sister, can you let me go?"

"No, you said it yourself, you want to repay me, now is the time for you to repay me!" Xie Minyun said categorically.

Cheng Mo thought that Xie Minyun had been with her in the hospital all night last night, and he really couldn't refuse, so he had to say, "Okay, the last one?"

Xie Minyun nodded, "It's definitely the last game." ”

Cheng Mo had no choice but to start again, this game Xie Minyun launched a stubborn resistance, and the two fought until the end, the computer operator, the black chessboard had 1 more glance and won.

Seeing that Xie Minyun's lips were about to bite and bleed, Cheng Mo looked at his phone and said, "I still have to fill one hand in the empty space of black chess, this game of chess should be a draw ....."

"Who wants you to let it go? If you lose, you lose, you lose, you don't have to lose, you lose and you win back..... We'll come again...."

"Senpai...... Didn't you just say it was definitely the last game?"

"What I just meant was the last game of the day, and now it's past midnight, it's the next day, and it's not a broken promise!"

"Hey, senior sister, I'm still a patient! I was in the hospital all night yesterday, it's not appropriate for you to treat a patient like this..."

Xie Minyun stared at Cheng Mo seriously, and Cheng Mo felt furious when he saw it, "Senior sister, go back and rest! I'll accompany you tomorrow night.... You can go down for as long as you want.... None of us had a good rest today.... Let's go back to sleep early!"

"So be it, you lie down on the bed, and we'll go down until you fall asleep....."

Cheng Mo couldn't cry or laugh, looked at Xie Minyun's expectant and unyielding eyes, shook his head and said, "I'm really afraid of you!" After speaking, he walked to the bedroom with his mobile phone, and Xie Minyun also followed with his mobile phone.

After walking into the bedroom, Cheng Mo said, "Senior sister, please turn around." ”

"What?"

"I'll take off my clothes and go to bed!" Cheng Mo said angrily.

"Oh!", Xie Minyun hurriedly turned around, and heard the sound of Xi Suo Suo, and then the sound of Cheng Mo going to bed, Xie Minyun actually felt a little feverish, and then remembered that the current situation was that she and Cheng Mo were in the same room alone, and suddenly Xie Minyun's heartbeat was a little faster, she had never stayed in a bedroom with a boy, this was really the first time in the world.

"Alright! Let's get started. Cheng Mo, who was wearing a white T-shirt, leaned on the back of the bed and said to Xie Minyun's graceful back.

Xie Minyun turned around, glanced at Cheng Mo, and coughed, "Don't let me deliberately." ”

Cheng Mo looked down at his phone, "I won't be so chess-free." ”

Xie Minyun sat down on the sofa next to the bed, and the two of them started the fifth game, still Cheng Mo won, the sixth, seventh, and eighth rounds, or Cheng Mo won, Xie Minyun has fallen into a daze, and the ninth game still starts.

However, in the ninth game, down to the thirtieth hand, 20 seconds later, Cheng Mo didn't make a move, Xie Minyun looked up and saw that Cheng Mo's hand holding the mobile phone had been released, his eyes were tightly closed, and he seemed to be asleep, so Xie Minyun walked over, put Cheng Mo who was leaning on the back of the bed flat, and helped him cover the quilt, then picked up Cheng Mo's mobile phone, sat on the sofa, and started to play with himself.....

—————————

In fact, Cheng Mo didn't sleep at all, he just quietly activated the carrier, let Lin Zhinuo appear in the safe staircase of the hotel, and studied some details about the carrier.
