Super Soldier

After practising for two days, Liu Kexin was no longer shy. At least they could hold hands naturally. The eye contact when they were talking had also become somewhat different. They could look at each other affectionately. There would not be other intimacy, because Liu Kexin would be embarrassed about that. But this was enough. After all, how could such a girl like Liu Kexin display intimacy in front of her parents? It was enough that they would not give themselves away when they held each other’s hands and had eye contact.

Xiao Bing did not expect Liu Kexin to have such a talent. The results of the practice had far exceeded his initial expectations!

When Xiao Bing and Ye Xiaoxi were having dinner together, Ye Xiaoxi took the initiative to mention it. She asked with a smile, “Brother Bing, how is your practice with her getting on these two days? Not too enamored by her, are you?”

“Not possible.” Xiao Bing rebuked. “Don’t you believe in my character? I have never been perturbed by a woman. Which woman in the world can get into my mind and my heart?”

Ye Xiaoxi was charmed, but she said with a smile, “You always hoodwink me with good words. I don’t believe you. No woman can get into your mind? Am I not a woman? So what you mean is that I also didn’t get into your mind and your heart?”

“No, how can you be the same!” Xiao Bing said affectionately, “You are not a person, you are an angel, and you are the biggest luck in my life.”

Ye Xiaoxi smiled sweetly. Women were always like this. Believing it or not depended on whether she liked the words the man said and whether she liked the man who spoke. If it was true love, she would believe it even she knew it was a lie. Moreover, Xiao Bing’s words were true. For Xiao Bing, Ye Xiaoxi was like an angel who had already gotten into his heart.

Ye Xiaoxi’s smile was so sweet that Xiao Bing felt he was going to be lost in it.

Xiao Bing stood up. He bent his head and kissed Yezi’s forehead very gently.

Ye Xiaoxi licked her lips. “God, the pink tongue sliding on her lips is extremely attractive.” This girl was doing it deliberately. She smiled slyly and said, “What, are you fascinated by me?”

“Little girl, how dare you dally with me!”

Xiao Bing suddenly went over to take hold of Ye Xiaoxi. She screamed, “What are you doing?”

“Go to sleep!” shouted Xiao Bing.

Ye Xiaoxi was a little shy. She blushed and said, “Why sleep? It’s still early. Don’t always think about indulging in sexual pleasures.”

Xiao Bing smiled and said, “What’s going on in that little head of yours? All I meant was that I’m going to lie on the bed with you in my arms. We’ll chat while lying side by side, isn’t that good?”

Ye Xiaoxi blushed a deep red and said, “Bah, only a ghost would want to be in your arms.”

“Then aren’t you that ghost? And you are a female ghost, a beautiful one.”

Xiao Bing held Ye Xiaoxi as they walked playfully out of the dining room to go upstairs. All the servants who saw them turned their heads. Even the maid who passed Xiao Bing very tactfully pretended she didn’t see them.

What made Ye Xiaoxi most depressed was that every maid in the house must believe that she had done something on with Bing, but what they didn’t know was that they were purer than anyone else. They really had done nothing every night except sleeping. But who would believe that?

Next day, before Ye Xiaoxi went to work, she gave Xiao Bing an original work of Mr. Zhang Yong, who was one of the most famous modern landscape painters. The highest price paid for his works could go beyond two million Yuan, which showed how precious his original works were.

Xiao Bing had knowledge of calligraphy and painting and had even dealt with Mr. Zhang Yong, so of course, he knew the value of this landscape painting. He quickly refused. It was not about the price. The most important thing was that if he brought such a valuable gift, would Liu Kexin’s father accept it? What’s more, how should he answer if asked about his identity? Could a small shareholder of a noodle house give him such a valuable gift?

Xiao Bing went to buy two bottles of good wine in the afternoon before the appointed time. It cost him about 1,000 Yuan. He then drove to the ground floor of Liu Kexin’s house.

He went to Liu Kexin’s house with the two bottles of wine and gently knocked at the door. Liu Kexin’s mother, a middle-aged woman with a demure look, opened the door. Although she was over forty years old, she still looked charming, and it was obvious that she was very beautiful when she was young.

Seeing Xiao Bing, she subconsciously looked him up and down. The more she looked at him, the more pleased she was. She said with a smile, “Are you Xiao Bing? Come in, please. Kexin was always talking about how you took care of her and have been very kind. Now you are finally here. Actually, we should’ve invited you over much earlier.”

Xiao Bing smiled and said. “It’s so kind of you. I should’ve been the one to come and visit long before this.”

“Haha, say no more, come in quick. Kexin’s father has often mentioned you at home, too. Look at this, you really don’t need to bring gifts when you come.”

Just then, Liu Kexin’s father also came out of the bedroom. Seeing Xiao Bing handing two bottles of good wine to Liu Kexin’s mother, he immediately smiled and said, “Do you drink, Xiao Bing?”

“Yes.” Xiao Bing nodded and said, “Nice to meet you.”

“Okay, drink a little with me in the evening. It is good for young people to drink less alcohol. You will be busy with the social engagements outside, especially if businessmen like you.”

“Yes.” Xiao Bing put on the slippers.

At this time, Liu Kexin also walked out of the room. Seeing Xiao Bing, she immediately took the initiative to intimately hold the arm of Xiao Bing. Her parents’ eyes lit up when they saw this.

Her mother smiled and said, “You have a chat first. I’ll go and finish cooking and we will have dinner soon.”

Her father said, “Kexin, I will borrow Xiao Bing for a bit. Xiao Bing, do you play chess?”

“Chess?” Xiao Bing thought for a moment and answered, “I can play a little.”

“It’s good for young people to learn how to play chess. Do you play Chinese chess or Go?”

“I can play a little of both.”

Her father shook his head and said, “It’s not very good to be a jack-of-all-trades and master of none. Pick one that you are good at and play a couple of games with me.”

“Then let’s play Go….”

Her father eyes showed approval. Although he did not think Xiao Bing could play it very well, it was very rare for young people nowadays to know about traditional things like this. That’s why he was not too disappointed that Xiao Bing knew only a little about it.

Xiao Bing set the chessboard with Liu Kexin’s father in the room and they began to play.

Liu Kexin sat next to Xiao Bing and touched Xiao Bing secretly to give him a look.

Xiao Bing thought, “Kexin is afraid that I will offend his father. In that case, I will make concessions to him.”

So after a few good performances in the opening stage, he made concessions to Liu Kexin’s father and deliberately made mistakes.

To start with, Liu Kexin’s father played with great interest but soon frowned. He thought, “The young man is still young. He may have learnt how to start, but as the game progresses, he finds himself out of his depth. It may be too difficult to teach a young person how to play.”

Seeing the great disparity in skill between them, Liu Kexin’s father lost most of the interest. He was aggressive in his disappointment and tried to defeat Xiao Bing before they got to intermediate stage.

Liu Kexin was very anxious when she saw her father’s face. She purposely hinted to Xiao Bing not to make any concessions to her father and to play his very best. Liu Kexin never knew that Xiao Bing could play Go. However, she knew her father’s skill level too much. He was definitely a first-class amateur player. She thought that even if Bing played it seriously, he would not win. He would be disastrously defeated if he did not take it seriously.

Her father was not like others. He liked cultured and scholarly people most. Better yet if they were proficient in the four arts, zither, Go, painting and calligraphy and had a wide range of knowledge. Although he did not have interest in businessmen, he did not exclude them either.

Xiao Bing was a businessman. At least the first impression was so-so. Her father loved calligraphy, painting, playing chess and others, and also liked the young people who were proficient in these. If Xiao Bing showed his strength in Go, he would certainly win the approval of her father, so Liu Kexin hoped that Xiao Bing could play it well, and would not be too disastrously defeated even if he lost.

Although Xiao Bing misread Liu Kexin’s hint, he quickly noticed her anxious and helpless look and her father’s listlessness, and immediately realized he’d misinterpreted her. Looks like Liu Kexin didn’t want him to make concessions but to win!

Xiao Bing understood what was going on, and began to study the situation and consider it carefully for a while.

Liu Kexin’s father sighed, “Young man, Go is the oldest traditional art in our country. We cannot allow our national treasure to be lost. I think your level is the same as a primary school student. Surrender.”

Xiao Bing smiled and there was a twinkle in his eyes. He said with a confident smile, “Not necessarily!”
