"Eh?"

"Your grandpa loved shogi when he was alive. He and I were good friends who played shogi together. Hinazuru's hotel hosted many title matches."

"That, that..." The elementary school student grabbed Hajima Seisuke's finger and was obviously nervous when facing the old man. He obviously did not remember what happened when he was a child, "I don't remember..."

"Haha." Kiyotaki Kosuke laughed, "It's normal not to remember. You were too young at the time and could only speak in a whimpering manner."

"That kind of thing..." The primary school student blushed and lowered his head, saying in embarrassment, "I don't remember that kind of thing at all!"

Yinzi looked down and complained: "The cat is meowing?"

"Nonsense." Xiao Ai retorted, "Oooh, it's obviously a tiger, a big tiger."

"And you said you don't remember?"

"..."

"The watermelon is cut." Qingtaki Guixiang said gently, "Hurry up and eat the watermelon. If you have anything to say, please finish it."

Ate watermelon.

Hashima Seisuke and Kiyotaki Kosuke talked about elementary school students.

"Ashina has agreed that Xiao Ai will study with you?" Kiyotaki Kosuke gently shook the cattail leaf fan in his hand.

Hajima Seisuke nodded: "I called yesterday afternoon to inquire. This summer, my little love will learn shogi with me."

Fortunately, I called to report the situation, otherwise I might have been in jail now, waiting for Zari, Senior Sister and Kato to send me prison meals!

"That's no problem." Kiyotaki Kosuke nodded, "Leave the affairs of the Shogi Alliance to me."

The matter of running away from home came to an end, and it was time to play chess. While Ginzi and Xiao Ai were playing chess, Hashima Seisuke also went to the kitchen.

"Sister Guixiang."

"Seisuke?" Kiyotaki Guixiang was making dinner. He raised his eyes and asked, "Why are you here?"

Hajima Seisuke said: "Come here and help me."

The four of them were sitting in the living room playing shogi with the air conditioner blowing, while Kiyotaki Guixiang was busy in the kitchen alone.

"That's okay." Qingtaki Guixiang didn't refuse, she pursed her lips and smiled, and said gently, "Wash the okra."

"……good."

Okra looks like a small pepper, so it is also called "foreign pepper". It happens to be a vegetable in the summer season. It is very simple to eat at home. Most of them are cold okra. The problem is that this stuff is sticky like natto. The representative food of China is said to be extremely nutritious, and can also strengthen yang and nourish the kidneys... I always feel that green vegetables have countless benefits, and eating meat is the original sin.

"Has Sister Guixiang been running recently?" Hashima Seisuke turned on the faucet and began to wash the ingredients.

"Yes." Kiyotaki Guixiang replied, "The day you won the third league, I promised you to keep running, and I will naturally keep my promise."

Hashima Seisuke said: "Go for a run in the park at night."

"Just go." Qingtaki Guixiang came over angrily, "I'm not afraid of you this time."

"Is Guixiang-sama's birthday coming soon?" Hajima Kiyosuke asked.

"..."

After a brief silence, Qingtaki Guixiang answered softly, with a somewhat sad tone: "Yes, there are less than two months left."

The age limit for the Female Abortion Association is twenty-five years old. Once you are over twenty-five years old, you will lose your membership qualifications.

Kiyotaki Katsura will soon reach her twenty-fifth birthday, which means that she will not be able to pass the qualifying competition to become a female shogi player in the next two months, and will never be able to join the club again in this life.

"Then tomorrow."

Hajima Seisuke finished washing the okra and brought other vegetables over. "Tomorrow, let's go to the Women's Association, participate in the admission competition, and then become a Women's shogi player."

"Eh, eh, eh?" Kiyotaki Guixiang, who was still feeling sad just now, was shocked and turned around in surprise, "Seisuke, what did you say? Are you going to compete tomorrow?"

"Yes, it's tomorrow."

"B-but I'm not ready yet..."

Kiyotaki Guixiang said nervously.

The qualifying competition for the Girls' Association has become her biggest nightmare. She was born in a shogi family and was introduced to shogi in kindergarten. She was able to recite chess records before elementary school. The first time she participated in the admission competition of the Girls' Association was in the first grade of elementary school. I thought I could easily pass and become a female chess player, and then be promoted to a reward club, or even challenge a female professional chess player who had never appeared before, and then...

The nightmare is coming.

The membership test was not passed.

The first failure is nothing, learn the lesson and try again.

The second time failed.

The third failure...

From elementary school to junior high school, then to high school and university, and even starting to work after graduation, I have failed countless times over the years. Every challenge will always fail due to various reasons.

Kiyotaki Guixiang has long recognized the cruel reality that she is an ordinary person with no talent. The reason why she is unwilling to give up is because giving up is tantamount to denying her entire life. But whether she can pass the qualifying round... she herself doesn't know. What expectations.

If there were a formula to calculate the area of ​​psychological shadow, Kiyoteaki Guixiang's psychological shadow area would be estimated to be as large as the surface of the moon.

"I have been preparing for long enough." Hashima Seisuke said seriously, "Don't underestimate yourself, just like running, seven out of ten people can't persist. Sister Guixiang's hard work and love are no worse than anyone else."

"But the list..."

"I've asked Ginko to help you get the list." Hashima Seisuke looked at Kiyotaki Keika, who was still a little flustered, "Go directly to the competition with us tomorrow."

As his twenty-fifth birthday approaches, the pressure on Kiyotaki Guixiang will only increase, so he cannot wait until a few days before his birthday to participate in the qualifying competition. Not everyone can break out in desperate situations and pressure, and even more Too many people will explode like a balloon.

Hashima Seisuke and Ginko discussed it last night and decided to attack first and then make a surprise attack, not giving Kiyotaki Katsura a chance to accumulate pressure. Of course, they couldn't say it tomorrow morning. If Kiyotaki Katsura stayed up late at night to watch dramas or do other things, it would cause If the condition is not good, it will be difficult to handle.

"Sister Guixiang has practiced kendo, now it's time to risk her life and give it a try!"

"Even if you say so..."

Qingtaki Guixiang bit her pink lips and couldn't help but get angry.

"Snapped."

A drop of oil star splashed and exploded, and Kiyotaki Guixiang, who was about to speak, couldn't help but exhale in pain.

"ah……"

"Is the oil hot?" Hajima Kiyosuke asked quickly.

"……Um."

"Come here and take a shower until the pain stops." Hajima Seisuke said directly, "Leave the cooking to me."

The best way to get burned is to cool down with cold water. Wrapping in flour or toothpaste won't help.

Qingtaki Guixiang didn't move. She gently bit her pink lips with her teeth, her eyelashes drooped, and she whispered: "I just decided to participate in the competition, and I got burned by oil. Does this mean that..."

"You were distracted just now!"

Hajima Seisuke grabbed Kiyotaki Katsura's wrist and pulled her over. Then he turned on the faucet and put his hand under the water: "Don't think about it there! If you are worried, let Ginko give you a 'victory kiss' tomorrow." 's buff!"

Chapter 695 Running can make you stronger

"Okay, I'll do it myself."

Qingtaki Guixiang's face was slightly red, and she broke away slightly: "Aren't you going to make dinner? I'll leave it to you."

"Um."

Hajima Kiyosuke changed positions and took over the task of taking charge.

"Kyosuke has grown up in the blink of an eye."

Looking at Hajima Seisuke's side face under the light, Kiyotaki Katsura gently pursed her pink lips, "I remember the first time we met was a bean sprout, and she wanted to take a bath with me every day..."

Halfway through, Kiyotaki Guixiang's pretty face quickly blushed, and she remembered what happened in the bathroom some time ago. Although they didn't take a bath together, it was almost as good as taking a bath together.

"The kitchen is hot."

Hajima Seisuke coughed lightly and said, "Sister Guixiang, can you go out and blow on the air conditioner for a while?"

"No need." Kiyotaki Guixiang shook her head and raised her hand to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear, "I'm used to it."

"Thanks for your hard work."

"There's nothing I can do about it. My father is a very traditional man. He has never been in the kitchen in so many years." Qingtaki Guixiang gently fiddled with the water with her green-white fingertips, "Maybe he can't even tell the difference between soy sauce and vinegar."

It’s not as unbearable as you think. I just taught you how to hide your private money!

"Here, soy sauce."

Hashima Seisuke reached out and took the soy sauce, "How is your hand?"

"It still hurts a little." Qingtaki Guixiang raised her hand, and there was a light red spot on the back of her hand as white as jade.

"Then keep rushing." Hashima Seisuke said, "Stop when it stops hurting."

"Know it."

Qingtaki Guixiang gently lengthened her voice and came over in anger.

In the past, he was submissive and taciturn, but now he orders himself in a matter-of-fact tone... But just don't contradict him at all.

"Well, there's a lot of sweat on my forehead."

Kiyotaki Katsura took out a handkerchief, stood on tiptoes slightly, and wiped Hajima Kiyosuke's sweat quite naturally.

Hajima Seisuke felt his nose itchy, quickly turned his head, covered his nose and sneezed.

"Eh?" Qingtaki Guixiang was startled, "Are you allergic?"

"It's not an allergy." Hajima Seisuke shook his head and said, "It's just that Sister Guixiang's hand towels are too fragrant."

Qingtaki Guixiang's pretty face turned red: "Nonsense, I just washed it yesterday..."

I washed it yesterday, but I also used it many times today. In the hot summer, I sweat a lot, so I have to use a hand towel frequently. When I woke up from a nap in the afternoon, I was covered in sweat. I not only wiped my face with the hand towel, but also wiped my face with it. Neck and chest...

"Sister Guixiang?"

Hashima Seisuke shouted.

"how?"

Qingtaki Guixiang came back to her senses and immediately suppressed the thoughts in her mind.

Hold still.

Don't be nervous.

It was just a matter of wiping my chest, and we used to take baths together when we were kids! No need to be shy at all!

"Your face is so red." Hashima Kiyosuke looked carefully and asked with concern, "Is it too hot?"

Qingtaki Guixiang raised her right hand and touched her cheek with her fingertips. It was indeed hot, and she quickly said: "It's indeed a little hot... I'll go out and let the wind blow for a while."

Walking out of the kitchen, Kiyotaki Guixiang breathed a sigh of relief, looked back at the young man in the kitchen, and then lowered his eyes.

"Sister Guixiang." A clear and sweet voice sounded, and the primary school student ran over, "Where is the master?"

"Make dinner in the kitchen." Qingtaki Guixiang looked down, with a gentle smile on his face again, "I will take you to eat ice cream, and I will come out after eating."

Had dinner.

After a simple cup of green tea, it was eight o'clock in the evening.

"You can go out for a run now." Hajima Seisuke put down the tea cup, "Sister Guixiang?"

Whenever big things happen, you need to be calm.

If you are nervous, go for a run. The effect of exercise in regulating your mood is many times better than sitting still.

"Let's go." Kiyotaki Guixiang said with a smile, "Wait for me to change into a pair of sneakers."

"Eh? Master, are you going for a run?" The primary school student looked up and said, "I'm going for a run too."

Hajima Kiyosuke shook his head and said, "Forget it."

"Woo——"

Xiao Ai puffed up her cheeks: "Master looks down on people, but I won the running championship at the sports festival."

"Ai-chan is great." Kiyoteaki Guixiang praised.

"Hot weather."
