Chess Soul: Buy the Shijia chessboard at the beginning

Upon hearing the girl's day study plan, Tian Minze seemed to have thought of something and nodded with a smile.

"I will give you a surprise then!"

"Huh?" Lin Miaomiao was curious, "What a surprise, tell me."

"Is it still a surprise to say it?"

"Tch, Mysterious, I won't talk to you anymore!" After saying that, Lin Miaomiao hung up the phone.

After comforting Lin Miaomiao, Tian Minze could prepare for his own affairs in Pengcheng with peace of mind.

Today, Tian Min is participating in many fewer qualifiers and has many additional business activities. Overall, he has a lot more time than last year.

Tian Minze participated in most competitions as a seeded player without any suspense, and he was constantly defending his glory.

Now the title of the number one chess player in China is well deserved and rests on Tian Minze.

The day before the end of April, Tian Min pretended that nothing happened, and Yu Lijun also prepared breakfast as usual. The two of them basically focused on Go during the day, honing their tactics for the subsequent mixed doubles competition.

A mixed doubles match is different from playing chess alone. In a match involving one person and one hand, coordination becomes even more important.

For Tian Minze, every move he makes has an intention, but sometimes it is hidden, sometimes obvious, sometimes earth-shattering, sometimes subtle.

It is difficult for ordinary chess players to understand the secrets of Tian Minze's every move, so if he plays chess alternately with Yu Lijun, the difficulty is that Tian Minze has to play a chess game that Yu Lijun can understand, understand, and play.

This is a test for Tian Min, so many layouts need to be planned in advance.

In Tian Minze's mind, there are rules to follow when playing chess. At least the first twenty moves can be trained.

Therefore, Tian Minze basically did the talking for the two of them, while Yu Lijun kept taking notes on each other's ideas.

There are not many popular layouts nowadays. Since it is a mixed doubles match, both sides will prepare a lot of routines in advance, so there is a lot of risk in playing newbies on the spot, and the chess game will be more stable and conservative.

"Lijun", Tian Minze was also instilling confidence in the girl during training, "I absolutely believe in your strength."

Yu Lijun said unconfidently, "Is it true that if you and Zhou Mingteng 9th-dan team up, the probability of winning the world championship will be greater?"

Tian Min waved his hand, "No, only you!"

"Only you can understand my chess and my philosophy. No other female chess player can. Therefore, Lijun, I can only rely on you to win this championship."

"Yeah", Yu Lijun nodded with his eyes shining.

Today, Yu Lijun is no longer a transparent person at the Taipei Chess Academy, nor is he a submissive advanced student at the Korean Chess Academy. He is also not a teenager who is worried about qualifying for the finals in the dojo.

She has been trained and baptized in many professional matches, and has defeated powerful opponents and some people who despised her.

Yu Lijun thought about his changes, looked up at Tian Minze, and couldn't help but said, "Minze, it's lucky to have you."

Tian Min smiled and did not answer.

After a day of training, in the afternoon, Tian Min took a look at the time on his phone and said, "I won't be eating at home today. Let's go out for a meal."

Tian Min made a reservation at a western restaurant on the seaside, looking at the sea view and eating steak. The two of them were in a good mood facing the warm sea breeze.

After dinner, of course, it was time to watch a movie. Yu Lijun couldn't help but complain inwardly, "It's so cliché, eating and watching a movie without saying anything on such a special day."

So while watching the movie, Yu Lijun's interest was not very high.

Tian Minze didn't take the initiative to say that. Although both of them knew what day it was, Yu Lijun was too embarrassed to mention it, while Tian Minze deliberately didn't mention it, and seemed to be in a stalemate.

The movie is obviously a comedy, and Tian Min burst out laughing, but Yu Lijun remained silent, with tears sometimes welling up in his eyes.

That's how thoughtful girls are, never willing to take the initiative to speak out.

"If you remember, then remember. If you don't remember, I won't remind you. I don't want to ask for it easily."

After the movie ended, Yu Lijun found that there seemed to be no one else in the cinema except for the two people. He couldn't help but feel a little strange. As a big city, Pengcheng was a bit crowded, but there were still many people coming out to watch movies on weekdays.

Yu Lijun calmed down, gently pulled Tian Minze's arm, and was about to leave.

However, Tian Minze pulled Yu Lijun's hand back and motioned for the girl to sit down.

The lights in the cinema that were already on dimmed again, and the screen started playing.

The music started playing at the same time, and photos flashed on the screen. They were all photos taken by Tian Minze of Yu Lijun on a daily basis. Some were of Yu Lijun cooking, some were taken while waiting for the bus on the street, some were taken when going out to play, and some were taken. Screenshot of the girl commentating on the game.

Of course, there are more photos of Yu Lijun playing chess, one by one. Yu Lijun himself doesn’t know when Tian Minze beside him took so many photos.

Finally, a line of text was printed on the big screen:

"Lijun, I wish you a happy birthday"

Although Yu Lijun's expression remained normal, he was already very moved inside and hugged Tian Minze's arm tightly without letting go.

"Let's go, this time it's really over, let's go home," Tian Minze said, holding Yu Lijun's hand.

"Well", Yu Lijun nodded, his mood had recovered, he looked at Tian Minze and said, "Thank you, Minze!"

When he arrived at home, Yu Lijun opened the door and saw flower petals on the ground, forming a big heart shape in front of the sofa. A trolley with cakes in it was placed in the dining room.

Yu Lijun looked back at Tian Minze in surprise, covering his mouth with tears slowly flowing out, "Minze, when did you prepare it?"

Tian Min smiled slightly. In fact, he had hired a birthday planner to arrange today's activities in advance, but he didn't tell Yu Lijun. He pushed the girl gently, and the two of them changed their shoes and walked into the house.

Tian Min lit the candles and said, "Happy birthday, Lijun, make a wish!"

"Yes." Yu Lijun clasped his hands in front of his chest, closed his eyes and made a wish, then blew out the candles.

At this time, Tian Minze was already standing behind Yu Lijun, putting the platinum necklace he had prepared in advance on Yu Lijun's neck. Yu Lijun felt itchy on his neck, and when he lowered his head, he saw that it was a heart-shaped necklace with diamonds surrounding it.

Yu Lijun turned around, tears already streaming down his face, "Minze, this is the most touching birthday for me."

Tian Min lowered his head slightly, and the two of them were intoxicated for a long time.

Tian Minze went to bed early in the evening. There will be a new round of competition tasks starting tomorrow. He has been delayed for a day and has to fly to Seoul quickly.

Yu Lijun cleaned the room alone, and then lay in the bedroom. He couldn't help but look down at the necklace around his neck. There was a small heart-shaped plaque next to the diamond decoration. If he looked carefully, he saw the names of two people engraved on it.

Yu Lijun couldn't help crying again, thinking to himself, "Tian Minze, can you stop being so nice to me!"
