Chapter 483

Even if her grandfather gave his all, the outcome did not change at all.

If even her grandfather is like this...

When will she ever be able to catch up to Big Brother's back?

And at this moment.

The maid, who had been standing quietly to the side, had already seen everything.

Her gaze shifted to Furukawa Masahiro, her eyes flickering with a questioning intent—

Should they still proceed with the original plan, reveal the Long Wang identity, and propose the apprenticeship?

Furukawa Masahiro sensed her gaze.

His old face turned red instantly.

Almost imperceptibly, he shook his head vigorously.

His eyes were filled with "absolutely not."

After losing three games in a row and being utterly crushed, still propose an apprenticeship?

Is it that he hasn't lost enough face already?

Natsume Chikage looked at Furukawa Masahiro, feeling that this old gentleman had a unique style and was quite interesting to play against.

As for what level the other party was actually at...

He didn't really have a concrete concept, thinking it was probably about the same as Tianbian Youren and the others?

Lunchtime.

Furukawa Masahiro's attitude was clearly more respectful than before.

He kept serving food to Natsume Chikage, his tone gentle:

"Xia Mujun, eat more, don't go hungry."

Then, he turned to his granddaughter, instructing her seriously:

"Caixu, whether it's shogi or anything else, you must listen to Xia Mujun in the future, you hear?"

Furukawa Caixu held her rice bowl and nodded heavily:

"Okay."

After saying this.

Furukawa Masahiro turned his head to look at Natsume Chikage, saying earnestly:

"Xia Mujun, my granddaughter in the future is entrusted to you!"

Natsume Chikage thought he meant letting him be her shogi teacher, so he nodded slightly:

"Mm, I definitely will!"

Furukawa Masahiro smiled in relief:

"Very good, very good!"

He knew about the decline of Xia Mujun's family.

He was only sixteen now, just six years older than his granddaughter.

If he waited until his granddaughter came of age, he would be twenty-six, the perfect age for marriage. If Caixu liked him then, they could perhaps bring the two together and have Xia Mujun marry into their family.

That way, their Furukawa family would still have two Dragon Kings!

At the same time.

Looking at Natsume Chikage like this, he couldn't help but feel curious and expectant: if, at the upcoming Newcomer Shogi Tournament, the one hailed as the strongest Long Wang in history faced the most talented Xia Mujun of the modern era, who would win and who would lose?

Soon.

Lunch ended in a subtle and quiet atmosphere.

After some time.

Outside the Furukawa mansion, the low sound of a car engine cutting out could be heard.

A black luxury sedan with elegant lines slowly pulled up to the gate.

Following it were several equally black escort vehicles.

Jinwei Tong, dressed in a well-tailored maid outfit with a capable air, was the first to step out.

She walked silently around to the back seat and respectfully opened the door.

A foot wearing an exquisite white sock and wooden clog stepped lightly onto the ground.

Subsequently.

Yutang Zhiji, dressed in a formal kimono interwoven with red and black and adorned with gorgeous patterns, slowly leaned out from the car.

The afternoon sun fell on her jet-black, waterfall-like princess-cut hair and the magnificent collar of her garment.

She stood still.

Raised her eyes.

Looked toward the gate of the Furukawa mansion.

Her expression was cold.

Her gaze was calm.

Like a noble lady who had stepped out of an ancient scroll.

Carrying an innate, inviolable, and stern aura. ===== CHAPTER 484 =====
