Was Aquaman’s ex-husband cremated today?

Li Qingwen had only been married into the Zhou family for two years. Because she usually stayed in Jiyue Mansion, she did not interact with her in-laws very often. She did not know much about the goings-on in and out of the Zhou family, and had nothing to talk about for a while.

After Zhou Chunsheng finished a cup of tea, he noticed his daughter-in-law's reservedness with a shrewd look, so he waved his hand to call the servant and ordered, "Bring out the chess pieces."

"I heard from Yong'an a long time ago that you can play chess." Zhou Chunsheng turned to look at Li Qingwen.

Li Qingwen replied guiltily: "I haven't touched it for a long time."

With her few skills, she didn't dare to show off in front of Zhou Chunsheng, the master. She silently mentioned Zhou Yongan twice in her heart and said everything to her elder.

The servant quickly brought the chessboard and spread out the border between Chu and Han.

Chess is an ancient board game whose rules are hard to forget once you understand them. Li Qingwen quickly set up the chessboard and prepared for the game.

Zhou Chunsheng was in no hurry to start. His solemn expression softened a little as he began to speak: "Xixiang and Yongan, the two brothers have completely different interests and hobbies. Xixiang is like me and inherited my hobbies, while Yongan is completely the opposite of me."

At this point, he couldn't help but reveal a helpless smile on his face, as if he felt both proud and helpless about the difference in personality between his two sons.

Zhou Xixiang is steady and prudent like his father Zhou Chunsheng, while Zhou Yongan is flexible and adaptable like his mother Luo Zijin.

Li Qingwen started to make small talk: "I heard that you, Dad, taught my eldest brother how to play chess."

Zhou Chunsheng picked up the white porcelain teacup on the table, and a proud look appeared on his resolute and calm face: "He is smart and wise, and he can learn it once he is taught. He can beat me in junior high school. There is no one who can play chess in this area within dozens of miles who has not been defeated by him."

The innate genetic order determines a person's intelligence level. Excellent people like Zhou Xixiang who are good at learning are rare in life.

Zhou Chunsheng put down the teacup in his hand, sat up straight, looked at the chess board and said politely, "You go first."

Li Qingwen moved his horse and left without saying a word.

Zhou Chunsheng moved the turret behind the soldier without thinking.

The two players' chess moves seem random, but in fact, after two steps, each move reflects the strategy used by the planner.

The huge living room was silent, with only the faint sound of the pendulum on the wall being audible. The two people silently arranged their strategies in their minds and entered the flow space.

ten minutes later.

On the chessboard, the red and black sides each had half as many pieces as before, and it seemed that the time had come to capture the king. The two sides were in a stalemate, each holding an advantage.

At this time, Zhou Chunsheng, who was a master in chess, already knew how powerful Li Qingwen was. He narrowed his brows, looked at the chessboard and asked, "Your chess is..."

Li Qingwen smiled slightly and said, "I learned it from my elder brother. When we were in school, we were both in the chess club, and my elder brother was also my teacher in the club."

Zhou Chunsheng smiled knowingly. He had known for a long time that the two were classmates, but he didn't know that Xixiang had also taught her how to play chess.

The endgame on the chessboard at this moment surprised him, and he said it was very similar to the way his Zhou family played the chess.

Chess was invented by our ancestors and has always been easy to learn but difficult to master. Zhou Chunsheng, who has been in the chess world for a long time, knows better that there are very few women who can play chess.

Li Qingwen stared at the chessboard intently and played the game attentively.

Her chess style is steady yet flexible, and every step she takes is just right.

Zhou Chunsheng couldn't help but look at her with admiration. He didn't expect that she had such talent and intelligence. He couldn't help but sigh that he had neglected his daughter-in-law in the past two years.

Li Qingwen blocked Zhou Chunsheng's horse and carriage.

The veteran player, relying on decades of solid experience, forced Li Qingwen to withdraw the Elephant Foot, thus preserving his reputation.

Zhou Chunsheng glanced at her.

Li Qingwen looked focused. She didn't know that she had completely won over her father-in-law Zhou Chunsheng because of this game of chess. It was also from today that Zhou Chunsheng completely treated her as his own family member.

Li Qingwen lost the game.

At this time, a clear female voice sounded outside the door: "Uncle, aunt, are you home?"

Yi Yunmei wore a light pink Chanel-style dress with a white cross-body metal zipper bag around her waist. She looked bright and cute, as beautiful as peach blossoms in early spring.

She stepped into Zhou's living room with a nonchalant smile on her face, as if this was her second home.

Li Qingwen stood aside, looking at the uninvited guest calmly.

She introduced: "Dad, this is Miss Yi."

When Zhou Chunsheng saw Yi Yunmei, a slightly confused expression appeared on his face.

"Uncle, you tend to forget things easily. My father is Yi Fucheng and my mother is Rong Shangchu. I am Yunmei and I came to our house to play last time." Yi Yunmei walked forward, smiling sweetly, trying to get closer to Zhou Chunsheng.

Zhou Chunsheng nodded slightly as a greeting.

Yi Yunmei didn't care about Zhou Chunsheng's cold attitude. She looked around and said, "Uncle, I brought you some good wine. My father specifically asked me to bring some. He said that he drank a lot of your good wine last time he came to your place, and he wanted you to try our wine this time."

As she spoke, she signaled to the servant behind her to bring out the wine.

Zhou Chunsheng waved his hand and refused to accept it: "Your father is too polite. It's just a few sips of wine. There's no need to be so fussy."

The smile on Yi Yunmei's face was a little stiff. She didn't expect Zhou Chunsheng to reject her kindness so directly.

She winked at the servant beside her, and the servant cleverly took the bag to the corner and put it there.

"Then let's put aside the red tape and just accept it, okay?" Yi Yunmei smiled.

Li Qingwen walked towards the corner with light steps, and said with a clear smile on his face: "Miss Yi, my father is very particular about drinking. He only drinks wine with a 44% alcohol content. Let me see how much alcohol your wine has."

As he spoke, he walked to the wall, pretended to take out a wooden box from the open bag, and carefully examined the product introduction on the outside of the box.

Li Qingwen put the wooden box back into the bag, picked it up and handed it back to the Yi family servant: "This is 38 degrees, my father doesn't drink it, it's a waste to leave it here, Miss Yi is here, don't be so polite."

The servant looked at Yi Yunmei.

Yi Yunmei forced out an awkward smile: "It's my fault that I didn't know Uncle's preferences in advance. Next time, I will definitely bring Uncle a good wine with a 44% alcohol content."

The servant took the wine box and brought it back to the car.

Yi Yunmei looked around but didn't see the person she wanted to see.

Li Qingwen: "Miss Yi, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. What's the matter with you coming here?"

Yi Yunmei had a wry smile on her face as she looked at Li Qingwen, who had already attracted hatred, and another elder who was difficult to approach.

Headache.

She didn't want to chat with them: "Where's Auntie? Last time I heard that Auntie had back pain. I know a miracle doctor who specializes in treating lumbar diseases. People who have seen him say that he works wonders. I want to take Auntie there to see him."

Hearing this, Zhou Chunsheng, who had been looking gloomy, finally relaxed a little: "Zijin just happened to have a backache and is in the hospital now."

Li Qingwen on the side poked his hand.

She had missed the opportunity to clarify things to her father-in-law, so she could only continue to act.
