On Sheng Jingās side, they received the news, but Sheng Yuanhang had already beaten them to it.
āThird Young Master, the Eldest Young Master is going too far! Clearly, this was the task Grandpa assigned to you!ā Sheng Jingās assistant, Chen Fei, scowled.
Chen Fei had grown up with Sheng Jing and shared a bond deeper than blood with him. Sheng Jing knew that Chen Fei was truly loyal, unlike his blood-related brothers who were always looking to take advantage of him.
āIf Grandpa hadnāt told him, he wouldnāt have known and wouldnāt have beaten us to it,ā Sheng Jing said.
Chen Fei paused, a bit puzzled, āBut why did Grandpa do this?ā
A cold smirk played on Sheng Jingās lips before he suppressed it and said calmly, āArrange for a plane. Sheng Yuanhang has beaten us to it, and we canāt waste any more time.ā
Why? It was so obviousā¦
Chen Fei wasnāt lacking in astuteness to be by Sheng Jingās side. After a moment of thought, he realized the reason behind it.
Competition within the Sheng family was constant. Unless Grandpa had already chosen his successor, the competitive environment would never change.
Once he understood, Chen Fei no longer had any doubts and efficiently arranged for a plane.
In the capital.
Nan Yan and the others landed at a nearby airstrip to the courtyard.
Their absence for four or five days hadnāt changed anything in the courtyard. Besides Shen Junqing and Bai Chen, there was also Grandpa An.
The three of them got along well now and occasionally played chess together.
Grandpa An was a terrible chess player but refused to admit it. He always thought he was good at chess, so Shen Junqing, seeing through him, would let him win a bit every time they played.
Bai Chen, having grown up in a Western country, didnāt know much about Chinese chess at first, but watching the two play and with Shen Junqing explaining the rules to him, he got the hang of it. Later, seeing his eagerness to play, Shen Junqing stepped back and let Bai Chen play against Grandpa An.
Shen Junqing just watched.
Finally, he felt relieved.
Honestly, playing against a terrible player was hard enough, let alone one who thought they were good, and to top it off, that terrible player was his elder. It was really exhausting!
He couldnāt win too blatantly, but he also couldnāt let himself lose too obviously. It was too taxing.
Now, with Bai Chen, this clueless apprentice, taking over, he finally didnāt have to worry so much.
Bai Chen was a beginner, but he caught on quickly. In just two days, his chess skills improved rapidly, and he gradually realized just how bad Grandpa Anās skills were.
Then, he understood how much effort Shen Junqing had put into their previous games.
This⦠was quite a relief.
