The King's Game

Ch73 – [Black Knights XVII]

In response to the question of why in every world, he met his lover and other family members, Gu Huai asked his system, but the latter unexpectedly played dead.

After going through three worlds, Gu Huai saw for the first time that his system could not speak out in response to his problems, and was completely silent. But the more this was, the more obvious the oddities were. But sadly, his system pretended to be dead.

It was useless for Gu Huai to continue to grapple with it. He could only leave this question in his heart for the time being. But at the same time, Gu Huai also had a sense that it was hard to explain the origin. He always felt that the questions he had would be revealed clearly after winning the game.

A semester was not long, and it passed quickly. It was not the first time for Gu Huai to go to high school. With his unforgettable spirit, Gu Huai’s position in his school was unshakable.

In his original world, he was a writer. Gu Huai was a liberal arts student who was seriously partial to the subject.

From time to time, such subjects as Chinese, English and politics, history and geography, he could get full marks, and also biology . But when it came to mathematics and physics, it was a tragedy on earth.

There was no liberal arts and biology subject that he didn’t pass, and his total score was dragged by two subjects.

Gu Huai’s final exam was ranked second in grade one, first place was occupied by Shen Sui. Gu Huai walked out of the office with his maths paper and saw the people waiting for him outside.

According to the 150 point system of mathematics, Gu Huai’s mathematics paper with 90 points was only equivalent to 60 points in the 100 point system. At the moment when he saw Shen Sui, Gu Huai coughed quietly and hid the paper behind him.

He had lived in different worlds. He was still as miserable as before when it came to mathematics.

Thinking about it, the tip of his ears were slightly red. He had make up lessons during winter vacation, Shen Sui didn’t miss his actions. After watching the red ears of Ah Huai for a while, Shen Sui took his wrist and walked to the school gate.

After getting their grades, they were now on holiday. Gu Huai was led away. After hearing his words, his eyes twitched slightly and said, “No more make up lessons”

He seemed to have a natural sense of resistance to science. Gu Huau really didn’t want to learn mathematics. Anyway, he could score high in other subjects.

“But Ah Huai asked me to study hard before.” Shen Sui paused and turned to look at the young man next to him. Black eyes reflect the other’s figure quietly.

“...”

Silent, Gu Huai hesitated to turn to him, “OK, make up lessons.” As soon as Shen Sui studied hard, he took first place in the exams. At first, Gu Huai was a little speechless, but later he brushed it off.

After all, no matter which world the other was in before, it was him who was extremely capable and was in a position to be looked up to. During the winter vacation, Gu Huai had to go back to Yujing.

Acording to what he had planned, it was time for him to go back and talk with his grandfather about his parents and his family. He needed to have a deeper understanding of his family. On the basis of make up lessons, Shen Sui also arrived Yujing with him. Of course, he had to go back to Fujing in the new year.

Before that, he stayed in the villa of his house. “Grandpa Shen has said hello to me first. I guess you will still live in a room. Grandpa has asked someone to take care of Xiaohuai’s room again.”

Seeing his grandson back, Gu family’s master unsmiling face took on some color, he seemed to be at peace. Gu Xicheng had learned about the incident from his subordinates.

Several months ago, Gu Xicheng was prepared to be asked questions by his grandson. The next day, Gu Xicheng was waiting in his study for Gu Huai to come to him.

“Grandpa”, As soon as Gu Huai opened the door of his study, he saw the old man sitting in it. As always, he was wearing a Zhongshan suit with a walking stick in his hand. Seeing Gu Huai come in, Gu Xichen nodded and pointed to a sit, “sit down.”

For the time being, Gu Huai was still under age. His eyes were still filled with youth. However, his sitting posture was impeccable and his eyes were clear enough to properly show his firm will.

“What happened in Fujing has been paid back.” He said this sentence first to the young man who blinked at him, “Don’t worry, I didn’t punish them.”

‘They’ referred to the black suits who were assigned to protect him in Fujing. They had exposed something that should not be exposed. But Gu Xicheng understood that there was no other way at that time. He had no reason to investigate.

“Yeah.” Hearing his words, Gu Huai nodded with a slightly curved brow. Gu Xicheng knew what he wanted to ask when he came to the study.

Before he opened his mouth, he asked a question, “You already know something about our family. Tell Grandpa what do you know?”

According to his answer, he would decide how many things he would tell the other depending on the situation. Gu Huai raised his finger and gently scratched his cheek. He had a normal look and even a light tone. “I don’t think so. Our family is very good now.”

Although Gu Huai was really ignorant of his family background at the beginning, it took him a long time to digest the fact, but the fact was accepted by others. Moreover, he didn’t do anything to lose his conscience.

Gu Huai didn’t resist his family background.”Uncles say that our family has become good.” Gu Huai smiled. Gu Xicheng looked at him for a while, then nodded his head after a while.

“That’s right, but we still have some relations that are not so easy to cut off. Grandpa will tell you later . You came to the study to ask grandpa about your parents, didn’t you? ” Gu Xicheng admitted quickly.

“Grandfather never intended to mention anything to you, whether it was about your family or your parents.” He used his calloused hands to press the tip of his walking stick.

After saying that, he paused for a while and then continued, “But since you already know part of it, Grandpa now confirms that you are really grown up. If you want to know the rest, grandpa will tell you. It is a painful memory.”

Gu Xicheng straightened out his emotions before making a statement “Your parents, it was not accidental deaths, but an accident made by people. It’s easy to think of someone who has a grudge against our family, but you know what road our family used to take. There are far more than one or two enemies. ”

“There were too few clues to find out. The case didn’t lead to anything. But even if we find out the truth, grandpa doesn’t intend to revenge. In this way, will Xiaohuai be dissatisfied with Grandpa?”

Gu Huai shook his head.

He looked at his grandfather, whose hair was already gray. He answered slowly, “I know grandpa did this for me ...”

“If they dared to catch up with someone who bit them when our family is about to leave, their power was certainly not small. If you choose to revenge, the most likely thing was to continue on the bad path.”

If he really had no family left, the master would do it at any cost, but there was, he was his only weakness.

If he gave up revenge, he could expose it. If that didn’t bring more troubles, he would have been willing to do so.Gu Xicheng was very pleased to hear this answer, and after that, he slowly told Gu Huai everything about his family before and now.

For example, he told the other that his family was now half gone, and the rest of his relationship with the underworld was not easy to clean, so he needed to wait for the opportunity. “When I go to college, Grandpa will give me some of these things.” Gu Huai got up from his seat.

The other half that was not easy to clean was his task. After the conversation, the clearance value slowly increased by 5%. Gu Huai knew his goal.

“OK”, The old man nodded and said with a soft expression, “I’ll give it to you after I’m at home. You can do anything.” After this conversation in the study, Gu Huai had a very comprehensive understanding of his family.

It would take less than three years before he took over the family affairs after high school, so even if he wanted to be the head of the family in the future, he still had to accept the lessons from his family.

“No.”

Dealing with mathematics headache, Gu Huai looked at his lover sitting beside him innocently.

It was not correct.

Actually, Gu Huai could choose to recite the question type with his memory, but he just wanted to pull up the scores of in other subjects instead of this headache.

However, when Gu Huai said that he would not, Shen Sui turned his head and looked at the other silently. Shen Sui’s response was to tell him that he had answered similar questions before.

According to the rules set earlier, Gu Huai confessed and pecked his cheek.

After being kissed, Shen Sui squinted slightly, wrote down the process of solving the problem and explained the idea again, then quietly asked Gu Huai to do the problem.

Maybe the rules were really effective.

Gu Huai who preferred liberal arts, was willing to memorize the math questions slowly. In the math exam after the beginning of the new semester, he finally got rid of the embarrassing situation that he just got stuck on the passing line.

The three years of high school soon passed like the fleeting wind. By the end of the college entrance examination and the completion of the graduation ceremony, Shen Sui’s reservation time for his Ah Huai was up.

At the age of 18, Shen Sui’s facial features had grown completely in the past few years. His eyes were more beautiful, while his handsome face was more capable of attracting attention.

As an adult, it was no longer a puppy love. Sooner or later, it would be something to talk about. Shen Sui planned to get the consent of his family at the beginning, and to be fair with the person he liked.

“Xiaosui, what’s up?” It was hard to get a call from his son. Even Shen Fu, who was a workaholic, was smiling as he continued the call.

“When are you going home, dad? I have something to tell you in person” He brought Gu Huai to the Shen’s house. Shen Sui was now calling his father in the living room.

When he heard the first word, the arc around the corner of Shen Fu’s mouth became more obvious. His son didn’t often call him so actively.

Shen Sui’s father quickly responded, “It should be more than two hours.”

On the other hand, he said that he would wait for him at home. Shen’s father replied several times and continued to work with a smile on his face.

He didn’t know what his son wanted to say to him that it had to be face to face. He was in a good mood.

Shen Fu didn’t worry too much. He would know when he came home.
