Chapter 5 Reward 'Master Chess Skill'!

  Chapter 5 rewards "Master Chess Skill"!

brush!

  Under the setting sun, the basketball drew a perfect arc in the air and hit the net.

   "Call me brother!"

  Wearing a white jersey and wearing white basketball shoes, Ding Linlang deliberately maintained the gesture of shooting, and looked at Qian Quan with a pretentious smile on his face.

  In the two-person heads-up match that just ended, Ding Linlang narrowly won with a score of 10-8.

  Qian Quan did ten push-ups without saying a word, got up and clapped his hands, and said briefly: "Come again."

   "Why are you so serious?" Ding Linlang looked at Qian Quan, feeling that his expression was weird today.

   "The loser eats dirt, of course you have to be serious."

   "I still like the way you are rebellious and stubbornly making excuses, can you recover?"

  Qian Quan glanced at Ding Linlang, then looked up at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle: "The wind today is a bit noisy, and it disturbed my hands."

   "That's right, come on, let's abuse you again."

   In the second game, Qian Quan gave Ding Linlang a strong confrontation, and finally relied on his strength and physical strength to barely win by one goal.

  After playing two rounds in a row, both of them were exhausted, with sweat all over their faces, and they walked to the steps beside the court and sat down, panting.

   "Tell me, what happened to you today?"

  Ding Linlang drank half a bottle of mineral water, lay half-lying on the steps and asked Qian Quan, she could feel that this guy was obviously not in the right state.

   "It's nothing, I'm thinking about the summer job."

   "What summer job?"

   "I'm planning to go to KFC to do a summer job to earn some living expenses for college. After all, I'm going to be 18 soon, and I'm an adult."

   "Just go, what's there to think about?"

   "Once I go to work, I won't have much time to practice and learn chess, and I will be overtaken by you."

   "It's as if you can't be surpassed by me if you practice every day."

   "Uh...it seems to make sense," Qian Quan chuckled, "Then what are you going to do in summer vacation? Do you want to go to work-study program with me?"

   "I was going to ask you to travel to Zhonghai, let's explore the road first..."

   "Go somewhere else, Zhong Hai, I want to keep something fresh."

   "Where do you want to go?"

   "West Lake."

   "West Lake is also possible. West Lake itself is also in my plan. When I read Bai Juyi's "Failed to throw Hangzhou, half of it stayed in this lake", I always wanted to come here."

   "So, do you want to go work-study with me to earn travel expenses?"

Ding Linlang didn't answer right away. Under the wet hair tip, a pair of clear eyes stared at Qian Quan, and after a moment of consideration, he said, "Qian Quan, if I tell you my biggest secret, can you help me?" Is it a secret?"

  Qian Quan's heart moved, but his face remained calm, and he said, "As long as it's a secret that doesn't need to be kept from you, I can keep it secret."

   This almost perfect answer hit Ding Linlang, and further strengthened her determination to tell the secret:

   "Actually, I'm secretly writing online novels, and I signed a contract, and my grades are pretty good..."

   Sure enough!

  Qian Quan already had a premonition that she was going to say this, but when she said it, she was still deeply touched by this sense of trust, and almost blurted out "I knew it a long time ago", but fortunately he held back in time.

   After showing appropriate surprise, ask: "Which website is it and what is the title of the book?"

  Ding Linlang smiled slyly and shook his head: "I can't tell you this yet. It's not that I concealed it on purpose. The main reason is—it's too embarrassing."

   "You don't know how to write **** texts, do you?"

   "Get out!" Ding Linlang yelled angrily, and then said with a bit of sternness: "It's not that pornographic, the website is reviewed, and if it is too pornographic, it will be 404."

   "Huh?" Qian Quan deliberately leaned closer to stare into her eyes.

  He has read the articles written by her. How should I put it, Xiao Huangwen is definitely not counted, but in some places, the car drives no slower than those male authors, highlighting the delicate writing of a female author.

  Ding Linlang felt guilty, stretched out his hand to push his face away, and said, "Don't pay attention to these details, the main point I want to tell you is that I have to code at home during the summer vacation, and I don't have time to go to KFC with you to work."

   "Okay." Qian Quan didn't force it either.

   A short silence.

  Ding Linlang asked: "By the way, aren't you curious about my manuscript fee?"

  Qian Quan shook his head: "I'm not curious, and I don't want to share your money."

   "You are curious."

   "No." Qian Quan resolutely refused to give her a chance to show off.

   "Hey, you are so annoying!" Ding Linlang kicked Qian Quan's foot.

  Qian Quan laughed loudly and stood up: "Two out of three rounds, one more round."

  …

  July 16th, Qian Quan's birthday.

  I received four or five "Happy Birthday" messages early in the morning, most of which were from my classmates.

  Qian Jiamin, the class monitor who was admitted to Peking University, also gave him a few extra words: "May you have a worry-free future, be happy and free, even if you sail against the current, you will not follow the trend."

  Qian Quan thanked them one by one.

  At 10 am, Ding Linlang came to Qian Quan's house with a gift.

   To be honest, Qian Quan has been curious about Ding Linlang's gift for a long time. After all, he has also participated in the discussion among the readers, and he really wants to know what she finally chose.

   Received the gift without being polite, and immediately tore open the package and opened the box.

   Inside is a mechanical watch.

  Seagull master series, black belt and white plate, looks quite exquisite and fashionable.

   "This watch, brand, Seagull! Isn't it expensive?" Qian Quan asked in imitation of Huang Bo's tone, took out the watch and put it on by himself.

   "It's quite expensive, more than 150."

   "Really, then I'll give you 1500, and buy me another 10 yuan."

   "Get out!" Ding Linlang cursed, and then reminded, "If uncle and aunt ask, you can say 150, do you hear me?"

   "Got it, brother."

   Later, Dad and Mom came back from outside. Dad was carrying cakes and dishes, and Mom was carrying a pair of Anta basketball shoes.

   "Linlang..." Mother Qian greeted Ding Linlang happily when she saw Ding Linlang.

   "Auntie, did you buy basketball shoes for Qian Quan?"

   "Well, I promised him before, he said that wearing ordinary basketball shoes, I can't beat you in playing."

   "Haha, Auntie, you have been cheated by him, he can't beat me with any shoes he wears."

   "I know, I just want to convince him to lose."

   "Auntie is witty!"

  Qian Quan, who had listened to the conversation between the two, was at a loss: "Ladies, I'm still here. Do you think I can't hear you?"

  Mother Qian and Ding Linlang smiled at each other and ignored Qian Quan.

   "Did Lin Lang buy this watch?" Father Qian helped change the subject when he saw the watch on his son's wrist.

"Um."

   "Seagull's, this watch costs more than 1,000, why do you buy such an expensive one?" Father Qian recognized it at a glance.

   "Uncle, I bought a high-quality imitation for just over a hundred yuan." Ding Linlang quickly explained.

   "Oh, that's pretty similar, it's exactly the same as the one of our vice principal."

  Ding Linlang laughed a few times in embarrassment, and at the same time quietly pinched Qian Quanquan.

  Qian Quan smoothed things over in time: "Mom, what are you cooking today? Is there any chicken?"

   "I bought a whole rooster, enough for you to eat. Take the shoe and try it."

  Qian Quan ran over to pick up the basketball shoes, and said obediently, "Thank you, Mom."

   "Stop doing this!" Qian's mother said angrily, "You and Lin Lang go out to play, and your father and I will cook. When you come over, Uncle Ding and Aunt Ye will entertain you."

"Um."

  Qian Quan put on new shoes, which fit just right.

  From childhood to adulthood, the clothes and shoes his mother bought for him never missed the size.

   When it was near noon, Ding Linlang's parents came, and when they entered, they stuffed a red envelope for Qian Quan.

   "Happy birthday, handsome boy!" Mother Ding grew up watching Qian Quan, and liked to tease him since she was a child.

   "Thank you uncle and aunt."

   "Are you playing chess?" Dad Ding saw his daughter sitting in front of the chessboard and walked over.

   "No, we are studying the endgames in Uncle Qian's new chess record." When Ding Linlang spoke, his eyes were still on the chessboard.

  Papa Ding's chess skills are average, but he is addicted to chess, so he sits down and watches the game.

   "Go and play chess with Uncle Ding and Lin Lang, I'll go to the kitchen to have a look."

  Mother Ding waved at Qian Quan and went to the kitchen by herself.

   Ten minutes later, the food was served, and Ding's mother was in charge of serving the dishes, and by the way called Ding's father, Qian Quan and Ding Linlang to eat.

  The two families have had dinner together countless times, and the atmosphere is natural and relaxed, filled with the tacit understanding of the whole family.

   "Come on, let's toast and wish Xiao Shitou a happy birthday." After everyone was seated, Dingmu Ye Yunlan raised her glass and said.

  Everyone toast together and say happy birthday to Qian Quan.

   Facing these four elders and Ding Linlang, Qian Quan showed sincere humility and gratitude.

   "From today onwards, I have officially come of age, how do you feel?" Ding Linlang asked.

   "From now on, whether my parents will give me living expenses and tuition fees depends entirely on my mood and I don't need to worry about the law anymore."

  Qian Quan's words made everyone laugh.

   "So, I'm going to work at KFC tomorrow." Qian Quan took the opportunity to reveal his decision to his parents.

   "What job do you do?" Mother Qian asked.

   "Summer vacation job, go to KFC as a waiter."

   Without waiting for Qian's mother to answer, Qian's father continued: "It's good to go to exercise, and get in touch with the society early, so that he can cherish the school life even more."

   "Young people need experience," Dad Ding also agreed. After speaking, he glanced at Ding Linlang and quickly added, "Especially boys."

   Afterwards, the two families chatted happily while eating.

   Just as the two fathers had a glass of wine and began to discuss the international situation, Qian Quan naturally gave Ding Linlang a chicken leg, and the latter accepted it frankly, without even saying thank you.

   This seemingly ordinary scene happened to be seen by the two mothers, and they exchanged a silent look.

  …

  The next day, Qian Wenlin, father of Qian, went to the chess club to participate in the internal selection competition, while Qian Quan went to the only KFC restaurant in Wanghuai County for an interview.

  A cheap, young and handsome student worker, the interview process went very smoothly, and because Qian Quan has a particularly good image and temperament, he was specially called by the store manager and arranged to go to the front desk to collect the cash.

After signing the contract here, the master took him over there to teach the basic skills of the cashier, including the operation of the order machine, communication skills with customers, catering, packing, selling packages, issuing invoices, and quickly identifying genuine and counterfeit coins, etc. wait.

   Those seemingly ordinary tasks need to be done with enough thought.

  After studying for a long time, the process has been roughly straightened out, and I will practice it tomorrow, and I will be able to master it soon.

   At 6:00 p.m., Qian Quan clocked out of get off work. Before leaving, he ordered a cone to reward himself.

  Out of the shop, I walked towards the bus stop. When I passed by the entrance of the Wanghuai Hotel next to me, I saw someone playing chess and walked over.

   The chess players were two old men in their sixties, one was wearing a double-breasted white coat, with a gentle appearance and elegant temperament, and his half-white hair was combed meticulously;

  One is wearing a white vest, holding a cattail fan, with a kind face and a round forehead, a typical uncle next door.

  There are four or five military advisers standing behind the two old men, all of them have devoted expressions and are discussing enthusiastically.

   As far as the battle situation is concerned, the military advisers' verbal swords are much more intense than the two protagonists.

  Qian Quanzheng thought it was funny, and a system voice suddenly sounded in his mind:

  【Ding~ The system has detected that your father has won three opponents in a row with the new chess game, and was successfully selected into the chess club team, rewarding you with "Master Chess Skill"! 】

  In the blink of an eye, various chess records and chess moves flashed through my mind, from fast to slow, and finally settled into existing knowledge and memory.
