[Please answer 1988] Sangmundong scandal

"... Cui Ze's sixth-dan performance in this competition is deeply surprising. Has the 18-year-old genius chess player died since then..."

Some news media are like this. In order to pursue the attention of the public, they only care about the immediate interests and never consider the situation of the parties involved.

Cui Ze lost, and it was a mess.

From the moment he left the competition venue, Cui Ze heard the words "Ah, you lost" countless times in his ears, over and over again.Yes, he knows that he has lost, and the loss is ugly, so he doesn't need others to repeat it over and over again, he doesn't need comfort.

Some time ago, Mother Liu discussed with several aunts, and decided to enroll Liu Donglong in a cram school, which would be tutored by Cheng Baola, who was a teacher major.Liu Donglong's study has improved a little this semester under Liu Mingxi's supervision, but Liu Mingxi is not a professional teacher after all, and she has a lot of school things recently. After thinking about it, Liu's mother decided to let Liu Donglong follow along like the other children. Attend class.

In this way, Liu Mingxi was free instead, and she was relieved to hand Liu Donglong over to Cheng Baola.

Taking advantage of the weekend vacation, Liu Mingxi decided to go to the post office in Jongno to collect the manuscript fee, and then went to the bookstore to see if there were any new books.

"——"

Liu Mingxi pushed open the door of his yard, looked up and saw Papa Cui who was sweeping the street with a broom, "Good morning, Uncle."

"Good morning, is Mingxi going out?"

"Well, let's go to the bookstore." Liu Mingxi nodded with a smile, and remembered what happened yesterday, "By the way, uncle, is Ze back?"

"I came back last night, and I went to the chess academy again without even having breakfast." Cui's father was somewhat worried. He wanted Cui Ze to rest at home, but Cui Ze's temper was very stubborn. Went to the chess academy.

"So..." Liu Mingxi also knew that Cui Ze had suffered quite a blow yesterday, so he secretly had a plan in mind, "Then, Uncle Cui, I'll go first."

In about 10 minutes, Liu Mingxi took money from the post office, went to the library in Jongno, and went to the second floor to pick out the books he was interested in.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Liu Mingxi took the unfinished books to the first floor to borrow books, and then left the library for the chess academy with the borrowed books.

It was lunch time, and it was the weekend, so there were not many people in the chess academy.Liu Mingxi went directly to the third floor, the practice room where Cui Ze often stayed. Through the small glass window on the door, Cui Ze was indeed in the practice room.

"—Aze"

Hearing the familiar voice, Cui Ze turned around subconsciously, "...Why is Nuna here?"

"Passing by, come to see you." Liu Mingxi noticed the coffee cup in Cui Ze's hand, and then remembered what Cui's father said in the morning, and frowned, "You don't want to use coffee for lunch, do you?"

Cui Ze pursed his lips and said nothing, which was a tacit consent.

"Today, I got the manuscript fee. How about, Nuna treat you to dinner?" I didn't eat breakfast, and only drank coffee at noon. Is Cui Ze going to be a little fairy?

"Nuna...me," Cui Ze still wanted to struggle.

"Aze doesn't want to have dinner with me?" Liu Mingxi's tone was a little bit aggrieved.

Cui Ze shook his head hastily, and sighed inwardly, "Why, I'm going to get the bag right away."

"Well, I'll wait for you." This was a promise, and Liu Mingxi showed a satisfied smile.

The two were walking on the stairs, Liu Mingxi deliberately told Cui Ze the interesting things that happened recently, the eloquence of the journalism department naturally did not need to be explained, the language vividly reproduced the situation at that time, "...then that senior, guess what happened. …”

"What's the matter with him?" Cui Ze understood her kindness, and smiled very face-saving, the whole atmosphere seemed very warm.

"He..." Liu Mingxi was interrupted halfway through.

"—Cui Ze Liuduan!" Just below them, a young man in a brown coat came over.

Liu Mingxi swallowed what he hadn't finished speaking, and turned his gaze to Cui Ze.

Cui Ze nodded slightly, apparently knowing that person, but his attitude was not considered intimate, and he only kept a polite distance.

"Are you okay? I heard that you were not in a good state a few days ago... It's just a small game. No matter how good you are, you can't always win, right?"

The expression on Cui Ze's face faded a bit. He also knew that it was just a small game. He just made a mistake. Cui Ze really didn't understand why everyone always had to repeat it to him.

Liu Mingxi felt bad in his heart, and quickly took Cui Ze's arm, "Well, Ah Ze, let's go eat."

"Ah...I'm sorry, then I'll go first." Seeing the intimate behavior of the two, the young man thought he was disturbing them.

"Let's go." Liu Mingxi reached out and tugged at the corner of Cui Ze's clothes.

"En." Cui Ze gave her a comforting smile.

When eating lunch, Cui Ze seemed a little absent-minded, and he didn't know if it was because of the words of the previous person or for some other reason.

"Ah Ze," Liu Mingxi pushed a bowl of hot soup in front of Cui Ze, and smiled slightly, "It's delicious, try it."

"Yeah." Cui Ze nodded, took a few mouthfuls with chopsticks, and drank a few mouthfuls of hot soup, feeling his whole stomach was comfortable.

Liu Mingxi watched with his own eyes that Cui Ze drank the whole bowl of soup and ate half of the bowl of rice, so he was completely satisfied.

The soup for two people has bottomed out, and there is a little bit of ginger left on it.

"Aze, do you know what I hated eating the most?" Liu Mingxi said suddenly.

Cui Ze thought about it, and found that Liu Mingxi didn't seem to be picky eaters in his memory.

"This." Liu Mingxi pointed at the shredded ginger in the bowl with his chopsticks, "The smell of ginger was what I hated the most when I was young."

"Before... what about now?" Cui Ze felt as if he had missed the point.

"Now...it's barely acceptable, do you know the reason?" Liu Mingxi narrowed his eyes with a smile.

"Why?" Cui Ze asked obediently.

"My mother always puts ginger in the soup, and every time I tell her she forgets it, and then I think about it, since I can't change her, then I can only try to change my mind, so I try to make myself accept ginger. "

Cui Ze was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt something was wrong.

"So, in fact, many things in the world are unsatisfactory. Not everyone understands what you mean. At this time, maybe you can consider thinking about the problem in a different direction, and you don't necessarily have to accept it, but letting go of your mind may make you feel better." It’s much better.” Maybe for Cui Ze, those words are like annoying ginger, he doesn’t like it, but he has to face it every day.

Cui Ze was silent and didn't speak, trying to let go...?

"Speak out all your dissatisfaction, and it's their business whether to do it or not." Liu Mingxi smiled slightly, and patted his shoulder lightly, "Go home early in the afternoon, don't stay too late in the chess academy."

"En." Cui Ze bowed his head in response.

......

When Liu Mingxi returned home in the afternoon, Liu Donglong was already at home.

"Didn't you go to class?" Liu Mingxi asked curiously.

"Class? Oh, that class, go." Only then did Liu Donglong come to his senses.

"How's it going?" Although Cheng Baola's temper was a bit explosive, her grades were still very good. It shouldn't be a problem to teach a few high school students.

"How should I put it, it's okay." Anyway, if you don't know it, you still won't, Liu Donglong already has the intention of giving up, math or something, let's go to sleep.

"It's almost the third year of high school, let's put more thought into it." Liu Mingxi said it several times, although she said it was okay, but in her heart she still hoped that Liu Donglong would be admitted to university.

"Yes, yes, I will continue to go next week." Liu Donglong sighed, his face full of helplessness.

"Understood, you go and wash the rice, they should be back soon, it's time to cook." Liu Mingxi put on an apron, opened the refrigerator in the kitchen, there are still some dishes, dinner should be fine.

"But, Nuna." Liu Donglong skillfully washed the rice, and asked Liu Mingxi who was washing vegetables in the sink.

"what happened?"

"You didn't answer my question last time." Liu Donglong remembered it, if it wasn't for Liu's mother who came back suddenly and interrupted the conversation between the two of them last time.

"...what to do with so much curiosity all day long."

"Tell me, Nuna~ I won't tell my parents! Really!" Liu Donglong tried to act like a baby, but obviously he was past the age to act like a baby.

"...You are really strange, why did you ask me this question." Liu Mingxi gave him a slightly disgusted look.

"Of course I should be concerned. I, Nuna, are so beautiful. I must ask clearly. What if I get kidnapped!" Liu Donglong thought about it later. In fact, Cui Ze is also quite good. He is naturally a friend who grew up with him. It's better than those men he's never met before.

Liu Mingxi, "..." spoke nonsense in a serious manner.

"Ah~ Nuna~"

"No, get out." Liu Mingxi really couldn't stand him anymore, even if he was cute and coquettish when he was a child.

"No boyfriend? Really?" Liu Donglong's eyes lit up.

"Yes, yes, are you satisfied? I'll go to the vegetable market." Liu Mingxi said that she didn't escape.

Liu Donglong didn't continue to question, and he let Liu Mingxi go without hesitation. He planned to talk to Cui Ze at night...wait, why did he help Cui Ze? ? ? ! ! !

Liu Donglong: So much sadness!

Cui Ze: Thank you (laughs).
