Chapter 1094: Chapter 1088: Liang Wanqing

The Liang family’s decor style is very characteristic of Suzhou, or rather, it’s a modern Suzhou garden. As you walk in here, it’s just like stepping into a Suzhou garden, only the necessary amenities are modernized.

Led by the man at the front, Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing walked through a narrow corridor and soon arrived at a Lake Heart Pavilion. In a small pavilion in the heart of the lake, Liang Shidao and Liang Wanqing, the grandfather and grandson duo, were leisurely sitting there, sipping tea, playing chess, looking quite relaxed.

Upon hearing footsteps, the two immediately looked up, and upon seeing Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing approaching, Liang Shidao immediately stood up and said: ”Brother Lu, I’m sorry, I lost track of time playing chess with grandpa just now, my apologies for not coming to welcome you sooner, please don’t take offense.”

”Mr. Liang, you’re too kind.” Lu Tianxing said with a gentle smile.

Liang Shidao looked at Lu Tianxing and said, ”Come, Mr. Lu, let me introduce you. This is my grandpa.”

”Grandpa, this is the young and outstanding Mr. Lu and Miss Bai that I often talk to you about.”

Liang Shidao introduced Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing to his grandpa.

Liang Wanqing glanced up and down at Bai Zhiqing and Lu Tianxing, nodded, and said: ”A young hero indeed, Miss Bai and Mr. Lu are truly a talented pair, a match made in heaven. Today, I’ve had the pleasure of meeting them. They’re far superior to my Shidao, come, Mr. Lu, Miss Bai, don’t just stand there, please have a seat.”

”Mr. Liang, you’re too gracious.”

Lu Tianxing replied without rejecting, and instead, he sat down next to Bai Zhiqing, glancing at the chessboard on the table, smilingly said: ”Mr. Liang, quite elegant interests you have.”

”What can I say, you age, and don’t want to go out, so you can only find time to pass.”

Feeling somewhat sentimental, Liang Wanqing said as he looked at Lu Tianxing: ”Mr. Lu, do you play chess? If you don’t mind, would you keep me company for a match?”

”Sure, no problem, but I’m not good at Go, I only play Chinese chess.”

”Chinese chess?”

Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Liang Wanqing was slightly taken aback, then instructed Liang Shidao beside him: ”Shidao, fetch a set of Chinese chess.”

”Yes, grandpa.”

Liang Shidao nodded, turned around, and walked outside. Soon, he returned with a chessboard and a brand new set of Chinese chess, placed them on the table, setting them up.

”Mr. Lu, would you like to start?” Liang Wanqing looked at Lu Tianxing and said.

”Alright.”

Lu Tianxing didn’t bother rejecting Liang Wanqing’s request, and directly began. Seeing Lu Tianxing make the first move, a sharp gleam flickered in Liang Wanqing’s eyes as he concentrated on playing chess.

Bai Zhiqing said nothing, quietly sitting beside Lu Tianxing, watching Lu Tianxing and Liang Wanqing’s duel, her expression didn’t change at all, leaving others unsure of what she was thinking.

The style of play reflects one’s character, this was Liang Wanqing’s reason for wanting to play chess with Lu Tianxing. He never fights without certainty, preferring to know both himself and his enemy instead of blindly confronting his opponent, which is why he invited Lu Tianxing to the Liang family today.

The two sides were engaged in fierce exchanges, you capture a cannon, I capture a horse, neither side yielding, and as time passed, the chess pieces on the board became fewer, and the situation grew increasingly tense.

Lu Tianxing moved a piece, looked at Liang Wanqing, and said: ”Mr. Liang, it seems we will end in a draw, otherwise, at this pace, we won’t finish even by dawn, don’t you think?”

Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, the furrowed brows of Liang Wanqing immediately relaxed, and a smile appeared on his face: ”Mr. Lu, your chess skills are indeed exceptional, this time I consider myself defeated.”

”It was Mr. Liang giving me leeway, otherwise, I would have lost long ago.” Lu Tianxing said with a gentle smile.

Liang Wanqing looked appreciatively at Lu Tianxing, asking with intent: ”Mr. Lu, I heard you had a conflict with Lu Haoyue yesterday.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Tianxing inwardly sneered, but a hint of killing intent appeared on his face: ”Mr. Liang, you know about it, huh, who does Lu Haoyue think he is, just trash trained by the Lu family, yesterday, if it wasn’t for Mr. Liang holding me back, I would definitely not have let Lu Haoyue walk out of Dream Kingdom.”

”Mr. Lu, how did you cross paths with Lu Haoyue, as far as I know, Lu Haoyue doesn’t seem like an impulsive person, is there some misunderstanding between you two?”

Liang Wanqing undoubtedly demonstrated fox-like wits before Lu Tianxing, refraining from speaking ill of Lu Haoyue, rather attempting to clear Lu Haoyue’s name, an outsider might definitely believe Liang Wanqing was genuinely concerned for him.

Unfortunately, Liang Wanqing was facing Lu Tianxing, a man crawling through life-and-death situations, not some reckless youth.

Though aware of the implication behind Liang Wanqing’s words, Lu Tianxing’s face showed no reaction; instead, a righteous indignation appeared as he said: ”Misunderstanding? Mr. Liang, I wonder if you know a saying, **** drives one mad, and power makes one forget everything, he is the heir of the Lu Family head, and my father is Lu Tianzhan, the favorite son of the Old Master of Lu Family back in the day. My abilities are not much inferior to Lu Haoyue’s; think about it, if I were to enter the Lu family, would his position as the heir to the Lu Family head remain stable? If it were you, would you let me smoothly enter the Lu family?”

”That’s a valid point.”

Liang Wanqing nodded thoughtfully: ”Mr. Lu, you should be careful then, Lu Haoyue is quite domineering, tolerating no surprises, now that you’ve had a falling out and put him at a disadvantage, he surely won’t let it slide, and given your visit to Jiangnan, you’re definitely aiming to enter the Lu family, he will unquestionably make a move against you before you step into the Lu family.”

”Thank you for your concern, Mr. Liang. To deal with me, Lu Haoyue needs the ability to do so. If he dares to trouble me, I won’t mind taking him down.”

Lu Tianxing’s face bore a murderous aura, leaving no one to doubt the veracity of his words.

Chilling killing intent, icy demeanor.

Seeing this, a sunny smile spread across Liang Wanqing’s face: ”Alright, alright, Mr. Lu, no need to brood over these matters, disturbing our leisurely pursuits. How about I show you around the Liang family? Don’t leave today, stay for lunch at noon?”

”With Mr. Liang’s invitation, it would be unseemly for me to be ungrateful.” Lu Tianxing said with a smile.

”Mr. Lu, you’re too polite, please.”

Liang Wanqing stood up, leading Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing to casually wander around the Liang family grounds, they conversed as they walked, showing no signs of any barriers between them, as if between old friends visiting each other. It was impossible to guess that just last night, Liang Wanqing had been strategizing against Lu Tianxing.
