Chapter 449: Cheng Xiao: You
9:00 PM in Yanjing.
Cheng Xiao called a taxi for Su Lan.
"By the way, Little Lin, I need to take that calligraphy piece of yours back."
"Let me tell you! Old Cheng is thin-skinned; he's been nagging me about it all afternoon."
"He said that while he's angry, the calligraphy and painting are innocent."
"In my opinion, he just thinks your piece is valuable."
"Hahahaha!"
Hearing Su Lan expose Cheng Yuanming's true colors, the three of them burst into laughter.
Cheng Mingyuan, that man.
He's not exactly bad, just a bit too prideful.
But you can't blame Old Cheng for that, after all, he is the president of several corporate groups.
That's just the "leadership sickness" that comes from being high and mighty for years!
"Alright."
Lin Yu, of course, didn't say a word against it and took the framed calligraphy out from the guest room again.
"It was a gift for Uncle and Auntie in the first place, so this is perfectly reasonable."
Lin Yu's playful remarks before leaving made Su Lan giggle.
In her heart, she was even more convinced that he was a good son-in-law.
"Sigh."
After Su Lan left, Cheng Xiao let out a deep sigh. "It's over, my mom is taking this completely seriously now."
"If she knew your philandering nature, she'd probably skin you alive!"
Cheng Xiao slumped onto the sofa, feeling a sense of relief.
This day had been full of twists and turns, but she had finally managed to bluff her way through the "boyfriend" situation.
"How was it? I performed pretty well today, right?"
Lin Yu leaned in cheekily, fishing for a compliment.
"Not bad. If it were out of 100, I might consider giving you some points."
"There's still a lot of room for improvement."
"Keep up the good work, Little Lin!"
Cheng Xiao patted Lin Yu's shoulder with a serious expression. "By the way, have you ever considered entering the world of Go?"
Cheng Xiao blinked, a flash of inspiration hitting her.
Although she didn't know much about Go, she knew the weight of that last game.
Lin Yu had played a draw against the Great Demon King Ke Jie with such nonchalance.
This meant that Lin Yu could easily enter the national Go team's roster.
For a celebrity, this was absolutely a golden opportunity.
Otherwise, there wouldn't have been such a stir when celebrities took civil service exams.
Once a celebrity artist has an official position, it's equivalent to having a special background as a safeguard.
"Me? With my amateur skills, I can barely keep up with an old man, how could I play against professional players?" Lin Yu scratched his head and gave a silly smile.
"Xiao Xiao, you don't understand, the Go industry is very deep."
"I reckon a professional second or third dan player could crush me easily."
"And do you know how many dans there are in Go? The highest is nine dan! Those are all genius-level national masters."
"How about it? Scared, aren't you?"
Lin Yu kept showing off his knowledge.
Hehehe!
That's right!
That's right! Since this battle, Cheng Xiao truly discovered that the Go world is indeed very deep!
To think that such a clever Lin Yu was kept completely in the dark, Cheng Xiao chuckled secretly. ===== CHAPTER 450 =====
