Chapter 624

Natsume Chikage's eyebrows frowned slightly:

"Main family?"

"They... why are they looking for us again?"

"Could it be Natsume Chunhui again?"

Natsume Ruri shook her head and said in a low voice:

"Not Chunhui aunt... it's... someone else from the main family who called."

Natsume Chikage's expression became a bit more serious, and he pursued:

"What did the phone say?"

Natsume Ruri still shook her head, her tone carrying uncertainty:

"Didn't say specifically..."

"Just asked when we are free recently, wanting to make an appointment for us to go out... to talk about some things."

Natsume Chikage finished listening, almost without hesitation, his tone decisive:

"No need to pay attention."

"We don't owe them anything, no need to entangle with them."

Natsume Ruri nodded vigorously, and a relieved smile appeared on her face again:

"Hmm! Ruri thinks so too."

"We are living very well now, no need for people from the main family to disturb us."

Natsume Chikage added another sentence and exhorted:

"In the future, if the main family calls again, hang up directly or don't answer."

"Of course... if it's Natsume Chunhui calling, still have to answer. She is still the guardian in name after all, maybe there are some troublesome things in guardianship that need to be communicated like last time."

Natsume Ruri responded obediently:

"Hmm hmm, Ruri remembers."

Late at night.

Natsume Chikage stood at the switch by the door and said to his younger sister who had already drilled into the quilt:

"Ruri, Brother is turning off the lights."

Natsume Ruri turned over in the soft bedding, facing her brother's direction, rubbed her sleepy eyes, her voice soft and glutinous:

"Hmm... Brother turn it off."

Click——

With a light sound, the room fell into darkness, only the faint light of sporadic street lights outside the window penetrated.

Natsume Chikage, as usual, borrowed the faint light of the mobile phone screen, groped back to his floor mat and lay down.

He unlocked the phone, preparing to see if there were any unread messages, and if not, seize the time to code some words and then sleep.

The LINE icon showed several unread prompts.

The senders were: Furukawa Masahiro, Araki Yua, Yasui Ryoto, Asahina Akizuki, and Yue Dao Lin.

He first clicked on the earliest one, from Furukawa Masahiro, sent around seven in the morning.

【Furukawa Masahiro: Guide Saio after the tournament tomorrow? Of course no problem. It just so happens that Saio and I will also go to the scene to watch the tournament, and we can load you back together on the way after it ends, to guide her to play chess.】

Natsume Chikage replied briefly.

【Natsume Chikage: Okay, see you tomorrow.】

The message was not read, thinking that side had already rested.

He exited the chat interface and clicked on the message sent by Yasui Ryoto around 10:30 in the evening.

【Yasui Ryoto: Xia Mu-jun, tomorrow is the fourth round of the tournament, right?】

【Natsume Chikage: Yes. What's wrong?】

On the other end of the phone, Yasui Ryoto looked at this reply and calculated secretly.

Being able to play to the fourth round, in his view, was almost Natsume Chikage's limit.

At this stage, the remaining players are at least at the level of the reward meeting.

Although Xia Mu won against Tianbian Youren last time, the current opponent's overall strength is a cut above Tianbian.

With Xia Mu's limited shogi practice volume, being able to walk here can be called a miracle.

Wanting to go further, the hope is slim.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, the registration fee was earned back long ago, and it's not a loss if he loses.

And... if Xia Mu loses, he might find a chance to perform in front of Yue Dao Lin.

Recently, I don't know where the wind came from, saying that Yue Dao senior seems to have developed an interest in shogi.

After Xia Mu loses, if he can win beautifully, he can go to Yue Dao senior with the excuse of "exchanging chess skills."

At that time, she sees his exquisite chess skills, maybe...

Thinking of this, Yasui Ryoto almost laughed out loud.

【Yasui Ryoto: Which session are you tomorrow?】

【Natsume Chikage: First session.】

【Yasui Ryoto: First session again? It's a pity, I thought if it was the third session, I could go to the scene to cheer for you. But no matter what, tomorrow's game must cheer up! Play our style!】

【Natsume Chikage: Definitely.】

After replying to Yasui Ryoto, Natsume Chikage clicked on Araki Yua's message.

【Araki Yua: Xia Mu-jun, which session is the game tomorrow?】

【Natsume Chikage: First session.】

The message was almost replied in seconds.

【Araki Yua: Why is it the first session again? Forget it... you cheer up for me, must win! If you win, Ai-jie will treat you to a big meal!】

【Natsume Chikage: Thank you Ai-jie, I will try my best.】

【Araki Yua: Know that you try your best. By the way, recently the consultant teacher of our shogi club has been nagging in the club room all day, saying that you kid went to the tournament and made some achievements, but didn't even show your face in the shogi club once, simply didn't put him, who was known as the running thunder hand before, in his eyes, it was annoying to death.】

【Araki Yua: But I heard that after you went to the Kendo club as a temporary member, that guy suddenly shut up. What's the situation? How did you get involved with the Kendo club? Still a temporary member?】

【Natsume Chikage: This... I have an agreement with Jinwei Tong, so I am temporarily registered in the Kendo club.】

【Araki Yua: Ha?! Jinwei Tong? How did you provoke that woman?】

【Araki Yua: No wonder our consultant teacher is cowardly, it turns out he bumped into someone he can't afford to provoke.】

【Araki Yua: Ai-jie reminds you, Jinwei Tong is behind the Yutang family, she is the personal maid of Yutang president. Getting too close to her is definitely not a good thing. Try to stay away from her in the future, hear me?】

Natsume Chikage knows it too.

But he is indeed a bit involuntary at the moment, and can only wait until the Yulong Flag tournament is over before making plans.

【Natsume Chikage: Thank you Ai-jie for the reminder, I understand.】

【Araki Yua: You have a count in your heart. I won't say more, rest well, prepare for tomorrow's tournament.】

【Natsume Chikage: Hmm, Ai-jie good night.】

Next, Natsume Chikage clicked on Asahina Akizuki's message.

【Asahina Akizuki: Xia Mu-jun, good evening.】

【Natsume Chikage: Good evening, Asahina-san.】

The message was replied quickly.

【Asahina Akizuki: Xia Mu-jun's game tomorrow, shouldn't it be... the first session again?】

【Natsume Chikage: Yes. Could it be that Asahina-san you are too?】

【Asahina Akizuki: (*￣︶￣) Yes, what a coincidence. It seems we have a chance to become opponents on the field.】

【Natsume Chikage: It is indeed possible... but I personally don't hope for this situation to happen.】

【Asahina Akizuki: Hmm hmm, I think so too...】

Asahina Akizuki said so, but in her heart, she wished to meet Natsume Chikage on the field.

If that were the case, she could logically propose a bet.

If she wins, she will immediately ask him to become her boyfriend!
