Chapter 505: Broken Chess

The scenes to be filmed during the post-recording process were much simpler than the normal filming process. Around ten in the morning, Li Heng gave Xia Wanyuan a break.
Although the weather was a little hot that day, the blue sky and white clouds were endless.
Since Xia Wanyuan had nothing to do, she walked along the moat of the capital. The capital was an old city with many ancient buildings left behind.
As Xia Wanyuan walked, she looked around. Under a large tree in the alley, she saw two old men playing chess.
The two elders seemed to be in a tug-of-war. Xia Wanyuan walked from afar to a place close to them, but she didn’t see the two elders move their chess pieces.
Since ancient times, China had a tradition of watching chess. Xia Wanyuan sat beside the two elders and watched the game quietly.
Xia Wanyuan sat on the chair for half an hour. The two elders were still staring at the chessboard seriously without moving a single piece.
Qing University sent Xia Wanyuan a message. Xia Wanyuan took a look and stood up to leave.
“There’s no solution to this one,” the old men, who were like two sculptures, finally said.
“Then I won’t return the meal I owe you. Hahaha!” The old man opposite him laughed heartily. Clearly, he also felt that there was no way to resolve this chess game.
Only then did the two elders notice Xia Wanyuan, who was sitting beside them. However, Xia Wanyuan looked like a passerby who was taking advantage of the cold under the tree. The two elders did not plan to speak to her. They tidied up their cups and stools.
Before Xia Wanyuan left, she picked up a white piece and placed it on the chessboard before leaving.
When the two elders packed up and prepared to leave,
“Oh my god! Look at our game!”
Following his companion’s hand, the old man also saw the game of chess that had been transformed from death into life on the stone table.
“Could it be that girl from just now??” There was shock in the old man’s eyes, but he could not believe it. How could such a young girl do something that even we could not break?
The two elders hurriedly walked to the alley, but they could not find anyone.
“I wonder if it’s a coincidence or if that girl is really capable.” The younger old man looked at the destroyed chessboard again. “We have to find her. She’s a good seedling!”
Xia Wanyuan had long left the alley and sat in Chen Yun’s car.
In her previous life, she had been personally taught skills by a chess expert. In her opinion, the game just now was actually not difficult.
Hence, she felt that these two old people who liked to play chess were just killing their time. She casually helped them and did not take it to heart.
“Wanyuan, where are you going now?”
“Let’s go to the apartment.” Xia Wanyuan had to go to Qing University in the afternoon and eat with Jun Shiling.
“Okay.” Chen Yun sent Xia Wanyuan to the apartment and left. Xia Wanyuan went upstairs herself. Just as she stepped out of the elevator, she was hugged by someone.
“Sister! I missed you so much!”
An Rao was dressed in a little sling, looking as charming as a little vixen who was about to lie to Tang Seng, but her eyes were confused and cute.
An Rao looked at Xia Wanyuan’s long-sleeved shirt and pants, and her eyes flashed with mischief. “Tsk, tsk, tsk. How intense was it? You actually don’t even dare to wear short sleeves and shorts.”
“…” Xia Wanyuan pushed An Rao away. “You’re not going to work?”
“Yes, I’ve already gone!” Speaking of this, An Rao was especially angry. “I woke up at four o’clock to film some sunrise with them. I just came back from work. I’m exhausted.”
Xia Wanyuan opened the door and An Rao followed Xia Wanyuan into the house very naturally.
“Sister, why did you remember to stay in the straw house here today?”
Speaking of this, An Rao’s heart ached. She had originally spent a lot of money to buy this high-end house. She had thought that she was at the peak of her life, but when she saw Xia Wanyuan’s house, she immediately felt that this was a straw house.
“Come and have lunch. I’ll be leaving in a while.”
“Alright, what do you want to eat for lunch?” An Rao secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Her manager strictly controlled her diet. Only by following Xia Wanyuan could she have some meat to eat.
However, An Rao’s plan failed.
Not long after, while she was playing with Xia Wanyuan, the door suddenly opened.
Seeing that cold man, An Rao shuddered. No matter how far away she was, An Rao felt that she was about to be frozen into an ice sculpture by the cold aura on Jun Shiling.
An Rao, who had wanted to scrounge a meal of braised pork here a second ago, cowardly found an excuse and slipped away.
What a joke. She was afraid that she would suffer from indigestion if she ate with Jun Shiling.
An Rao was really curious. How could Xia Wanyuan tolerate Jun Shiling being so cold? Wouldn’t she feel cold facing an iceberg every day?
Meanwhile, the iceberg in An Rao’s impression was patiently coaxing Xia Wanyuan to eat.. His eyes were filled with gentleness.
