“Continue,” Grandfather Sheng said stubbornly. “I don’t think winning one round is a big deal. I was just being kind to you.”
In fact, he knew that this girl wasn’t simple, but it was only because he hadn’t figured out this girl’s strategy.
Once he figured it out, it would be impossible for him to keep losing!
“OK.” Sheng Yang didn’t refuse. She wouldn’t refuse the riches delivered to her door.
Sheng Hanjing watched by the side. The gentle smile on his face gradually disappeared, and he was completely lost in thought.
In terms of Go, he was extremely talented just like Grandfather Sheng. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been selected by that Go master. Although he didn’t choose it as his career in the end, he was much better than his father at Go.
In fact, just like Grandfather Sheng, he was also watching his sister’s strategy attentively.
The top Go players in China were roughly divided into five schools, but as far as he knew, his younger sister’s style didn’t belong to any of the schools.
Grandfather Sheng stared at Sheng Yang’s hand, thinking that she must’ve been trying to confuse him so she finished the first game so quickly. Therefore, she must act differently during this round but once again, he got slapped in the face. “It’s your turn.” Sheng Yang’s voice was clear and calm without any emotion.
Grandfather Sheng quickly returned to his senses. As soon as he placed a piece, the piece in Sheng Yang’s hand was instantly placed down. She seemed to be very good at playing Go fast, looking confident and even casual.
“Is this girl just messing up?” With her lesson learned earlier, Grandmother Sheng didn’t dare to speak loudly out of fear of disturbing Grandfather Sheng’s train of thought, so she only dared to make her snide comments quietly.
As a layman, she couldn’t see the twists and turns of the game; she could only see that Sheng Yang was playing Go without thinking.
Grandfather Sheng could only bite the bullet and continue to play, but his confidence had gone. He had already lost 10% of the shares. He must be very cautious and take every step carefully, so he played very slowly.
Therefore, he had already lost in terms of speed, regardless of whether he won or lost the game. He had lost face!
Sheng Yang was no longer as slow as the first round because her opponent was playing too slowly, which consumed all her patience.
Less than fifty moves later, Sheng Yang threw down the pieces in her hand and looked at Grandfather Sheng lazily.
Grandmother Sheng was anxious, “Did she admit defeat?”
Grandfather Sheng turned pale. Fifty steps! He had never suffered such a crushing defeat!
He had always presented himself as a Go master. Even when playing against a professional player, he would only lose after at least a hundred moves!
Afraid that she would misunderstand, Sheng Hanjing whispered in her ear. “Grandpa lost.”
Grandmother Sheng was shocked like a hen who had just laid eggs. “Huh? How’s that possible?! How can your grandfather lose?”
Grandfather Sheng was so annoyed. It was the third time he yelled at Grandmother Sheng today.
But who else could he yell at? Sheng Yang? That would make him look like a sore loser!
“Let’s play again!” Grandfather Sheng was like a cornered gambler. His eyes turned bloodshot and he could no longer stop…
Sheng Yang showed a cunning smile. That was exactly what she wanted, but she still said reluctantly, “You’ve already lost 20% of the shares you hold to me. If we continue, only the shares you gave to my parents will be left. If I win again, you can no longer say those shares are supposed to be yours.”
“That’s right.” Grandfather Sheng gritted his teeth and nodded.
Sheng Yang yawned. “But I don’t want to play anymore.”
Grandfather Sheng’s eyes widened. That didn’t make any sense!
He had lost 20% of his shares! How could he allow it to end like this?
He felt that he had already figured out this girl’s style.
Not belonging to any of the five major schools of Go in China, she seemed to mix the styles of two schools of the five.
“No, you have to continue!” Grandfather Sheng said forcefully.
“OK, then let’s finish it quickly.” Sheng Yang agreed so readily that Grandfather Sheng realized that he might’ve been tricked by her.
If he hadn’t forced her to continue, then he could claim that Sheng Yang cheated him of his equity bit by bit.
But now things were different. He forced her to gamble with her, so he had no excuse now!
Grandfather Sheng braced himself. “How can we finish it quickly?”
“Let’s make this the final set. If you lose this game, you can never nag about those thirty percent shares anymore.” At this point, her cold gaze turned to Grandmother Sheng.
Grandfather Sheng wasn’t stupid. He said, “The cost of losing this round is too big…”
Sheng Yang knew what he implied, so she put the shareholding book on the table. “If you win, K Jewelry shares are all yours.”
Grandfather Sheng returned to looking steady and serious and the corners of his mouth faintly curved.
The little girl was too naïve.
Since he retired, aside from working occasionally, he had studied Go constantly. The masters of the two schools whose style Sheng Yang followed had all been his teachers.
As long as he figured out her strategy, he would know how to defeat her.
It was best to be humble. Otherwise, you wouldn’t even realize how you lost!
Sheng Hanjing was also aware of this and frantically hinted at his sister, signaling her to refuse Grandfather Sheng, but his sister simply ignored him.
Sheng Hanjing frowned and became anxious.
He began to think about how he would clean up this mess later.
“Continue,” Grandfather Sheng said stubbornly. “I don’t think winning one round is a big deal. I was just being kind to you.”
