CHAPTER 60: CHAPTER 060: A LONG JOURNEY AHEAD, THE FUTURE AWAITS

Upon hearing this, Gu Xiangzhou’s eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, and he sighed softly.

"It’s rare... so rare... Ah Shen is really lucky."

People who can stay humble and calm these days are indeed few and far between.

And those who can integrate reality into a chess game are even more of a genius.

No wonder he’s his idol...

Thinking this, Gu Xiangzhou looked at Chu Yinuo with admiration.

Fortunately, he didn’t listen to Gu Zhenyuan’s nonsense, otherwise, he and his idol might have missed each other...

They spent several hours playing chess, when He Xian’s voice came from the inner hall.

"Ah Shen, hurry up and bring Ranran over for dinner. Don’t let your dad starve our Ranran."

Starve?

Chu Yinuo patted the fat on her belly, feeling a bit amused.

Ever since she got together with Gu Yunshen...

Her weight never went down.

"Yes, yes, can’t let you starve."

Though He Xian scolded him, Gu Xiangzhou wasn’t upset and playfully helped Chu Yinuo up, while holding onto the wooden box dearly.

"Dad, I’ll take Ranran to the dining room first." Seeing him reluctant to leave the wooden box, Gu Yunshen spoke mildly.

Gu Xiangzhou waved his hand, "Okay, just be careful and don’t drop it."

Gu Yunshen sighed helplessly and led Chu Yinuo to the dining room.

"Why doesn’t Uncle come in with us?" She asked curiously, looking up.

"He’ll come later, he probably wants to show off the emerald chess set you gave him to his chess buddies."

Show off to his chess buddies?

Chu Yinuo contemplated and held her chin, "Is my chess set valuable?"

Gu Yunshen lightly tapped her head but smiled without saying a word.

After they walked far away, Gu Xiangzhou fished out his phone from the sofa and began taking photos of the emerald chess set.

He grinned broadly and posted a text and picture in the Sunset Seniors group.

[Zhou.: Sigh, daughter-in-law gifted me this, though I don’t really want it... but she insisted... [image]]

[Silence is Gold: Whoa?! An emerald chess set???!]

[Sports Never Stop: ????]

[ZFX: Old Zhou, if you don’t want it, give it to me!!!!]

Even Elder Ji, who usually does nothing in the group, sent a rare message.

[Ji Nianci: Daughter-in-law?]

Gu Xiangzhou raised an eyebrow and quickly typed several lines.

[Zhou.: Can’t believe my daughter-in-law is my idol, she just taught me how to solve the deadlock she set two years ago.]

[Sports Never Stop: Stop it, I’m starting to get jealous.]

[Silence is Gold: Damn, so annoying this show-off!!]

For a moment, everyone’s tone in the group was dripping with envy.

Gu Xiangzhou instantly felt high-spirited, but just as he was about to continue talking, a red exclamation mark appeared in the chat.

"System Reminder: You have been removed from the ’Sunset Seniors’ group."

Gu Xiangzhou: "..."

A moment later, he snorted with laughter and tossed the phone back onto the sofa.

This bunch is just jealous of him~

Thinking this, he hummed a tune and went to the dining table.

Sitting at the head seat, he eagerly served dishes to Chu Yinuo.

"Little Ranran, try this dish, it’s delicious."

"This one’s good too, I specifically asked your mom to make it for you."

Hearing this, He Xian, who just came out of the kitchen, nearly wanted to smash the dish on his head.

Specifically asked her to make it?

Clearly, this rascal was sulking all day, and now he wants to steal her credit in front of the daughter-in-law.
