Travel through Teyvat and spend your life with Linghua

Chapter 22: 1 sentence, rationality feeds the dog

Linghua looked at Xinyang's hands, which were hidden behind his back, and asked with a smile, "Are your hands okay? And what happened just now? Was that part of the process?"

Xinyang stretched out her hand and refused to admit it. "What hand? It's okay. Wasn't I just teaching you? How could you possibly burn yourself?"

Linghua couldn't hold it back any longer and burst out laughing, "Hahaha, Xinyang, you're so funny. You need warm water to make tea. Of course, it would burn your hands if you used boiling water. Let me see if your hands need bandaging."

Upon hearing this, Xinyang looked embarrassed, and before she could react, Linghua grabbed her hand while she was making tea.

Linghua suppressed her laughter and said, "Look at you. If you can't do it, then you can't do it. Why do you have to act so stubbornly? Look, you burned your hand red."

Just as Xinyang was about to pull his hand back, he felt a chill on his hand.

"Don't move. I am the Eye of the Ice Elemental God. I will apply the compress to you for a while. The burn is not serious and should not require bandaging. Don't try to be so stubborn again."

Xinyang(?>?<?) Linghua took the initiative to hold my hand and treated my wounds. It was worth washing my hands with hot water.

Xinyang was enjoying herself when Lingren came into the hall at an inopportune moment. Seeing this scene, he hurriedly separated Xinyang and Linghua. "What are you doing? I'm telling you, Xinyang, don't mess around."

"Brother, Xinyang just burned his hand. I was just applying some compress on him. What are you doing?"

Xin Yang's other clenched fist made a "crunch, crunch" sound after being interrupted. He placed his burned hand in front of Ling Ren in a forced calm tone and said, "Brother Ling Ren, I just accidentally burned my hand. Ling Hua is the Ice God's Eye. I just applied some ice to it. Is that not allowed?"

Ayato whispered into Ayahua's ear, "Stay away from him as much as possible."

"I must be too sensitive. Linghua, it's time for you to practice chess. Come to the study. I'll accompany you today." After saying that, Lingren turned around and left.

Linghua's little head was filled with confusion. She and Xinyang were obviously getting along very happily, so why did her brother say that?

Xin Yang saw what Ling Hua was thinking and explained, "Brother Ling Ren didn't seem to have eaten enough at noon today. He might be a little unhappy. It's okay. I'll make him a big meal tonight. It will definitely be fine."

Linghua thought about it and felt that this might be the reason, so she grabbed Xinyang's hand again to check on him. "Your hand is fine, be careful next time. Okay, I'm going to go play chess with my brother."

Xinyang followed Linghua to the study and saw that Lingren had already set up Inazuma's chess game and was waiting for Linghua.

After Linghua sat down, Xinyang stood aside and watched the game.

When Lingren saw Xinyang coming, he asked, "You also know this chess game?"

"I don't understand, but it doesn't stop me from watching."

Ayato(ー_ー)!!

After the game started, Xin Yang's attention was attracted by the chess piece, but the more he watched, the more confused he became. First of all, the car had many ways of moving, which was similar to the drifting of Mei Jia's sports car. The most incomprehensible thing was that after eating the opponent's chess piece, it could be put into its own camp for its own use, which was like a backstab.

Ayato's chess skills were obviously more sophisticated. He defeated Ayahua in four consecutive games with overwhelming advantage. In the fifth game, Ayahua was at a disadvantage at first but turned the situation around with a risky move. However, in the end, she still lost again because of one move.

Xin Yang couldn't help but complain, "This brother doesn't even know how to give way to Ling Hua."

Ayato glanced at Xinyang and said, "After watching so many games, why don't you try it."

Xinyang waved his hand. "This chess game is too simple. It's nowhere near as interesting as our Liyue chess."

"Oh, chess, what kind of chess is that?"

"Chess can even be considered one of the representative forms of Liyue culture. It has many more rules and restrictions than this game. If you want to play, I can draw a picture and have Thomas make another."

Seeing that Xinyang spoke so highly of it, Lingren also wanted to see the cultural treasures of Liyue that Xinyang mentioned.

Xinyang casually took out a pen and paper, drew out the chess set, and called the omnipotent Thomas to quickly make a set.

Xin Yang muttered to himself, "I've never played chess before, so how could I possibly beat a seasoned veteran like you? But Xiangqi is different. I've been hanging out with the old men at the entrance of the residential complex for years, and I've already mastered Xiangqi after being beaten countless times by them."

It was still a long time after the painting was finished and handed over to Thomas.

"Since you think this chess game is easy, and it will take time to build it, why don't you compete with me in chess first?"

Xinyang blurted out "No" without thinking.

Linghua had long seen that Xinyang didn't know how to play shogi, and Lingren was just having fun. "Since you don't want to compete with your brother, why don't you play chess with me?"

"If I play chess with Linghua...it's not impossible."

"Come on, I'll let you go."

Xinyang had only watched a few games of shogi and was not familiar with the rules, but fortunately Linghua was there to explain the rules.

During the game, it was obvious that Linghua was showing mercy and repeatedly reminded Xinyang which chess strategy to use in different situations.

Although Linghua has always been merciful, Xinyang really doesn't know how to play chess.

Linghua made the last move, tilted her head slightly, and made the "King Move"

Watching the scene that he had watched countless times appear in front of him, and looking at Linghua's lovely face, Xinyang couldn't take his eyes off her even though Linghua had stood up.

"Boy, are you so shocked? You need to practice more chess."

Xinyang glared at Lingren and said, "What do you know? I have other intentions. I have already gained something better than winning the chess game."

Xinyang stood up and stretched, looking out the window. It was already dusk. "Looks like I won't be able to get the chess set today. Linghua, please have dinner with me tonight."

Linghua didn't even think twice when she heard that. "Okay, I want to eat Liyue food tonight."

Suddenly remembering that Ayato was also here, Ayahua turned around and saw Ayato's harmless expression. She quickly changed her tone and said, "No, I'd better eat with my brother."

How could Xin Yang let Ling Ren ruin his plans? "Brother Ling Ren, I remember I promised you Liyue cuisine. How about tonight?" Fearing that Ling Ren might cause trouble, Xin Yang added, "Liyue cuisine is a hundred times richer than the Mondstadt food we had last night."

Lingren was obviously shaken after hearing this, and seeing Linghua's sincere eyes, he pretended to be reluctant and said, "If you hadn't said it, I would have almost forgotten it. Let's do it tonight."
