[Read the full text of the first novel with no mistakes, 69 Book Bar-www., your best choice!]

(Literature great wenxueda.)

This chessboard was given to her by Siling Guhong. Since it was given to her, it belongs to her. As long as it is hers, unless she voluntarily destroys it, anyone who damages it will have to pay compensation.

Speaking of which, Tang Niannian and Siling Guhong have almost the same paranoid desire for exclusivity. As long as it is planned to belong to them, they will not allow others to touch it, but Tang Niannian does not show it obviously on weekdays.

"It's just a chessboard. I have a few better ones than this. Since my sister cares so much, I won't be stingy." Gu Xiyan smiled gently, but the contempt in her eyes was not concealed.

Tang Niannian's eyes lit up and asked: "How many are better?"

The contempt in Gu Xiyan's eyes deepened, "That's right."

Tang Niannian asked carefully: "How many are there and how good are they?"

There are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people. In the eyes of Siling Guhong, Tang Niannian's expression was so cute that it could soften people's hearts. However, in the eyes of Gu Xiyan at this time, it was a vulgar little family who was extremely angry.

, a trace of disdain curled up at the corner of her lips behind the veil, and she said: "The torreya wood, the white water of porcelain jade, the yellow dragon of golden jade, the flowing cloud of flowing marble... Oh, I forgot to tell my sister, these

The names are all chosen by me personally, and few outsiders know about them." This means that these are all works by high-quality famous artists, and they are all privately owned by her.

Tang Niannian nodded and said with a smile, "That's it."

"What?" Gu Xiyan was stunned.

On the side, Zhu Miaolong twitched the corner of his mouth, thinking of something, and wanted to laugh but held back.

Tang Nianli smiled from the corner of his mouth to the bottom of his eyes and said, "You compensated me for this."

Her face was beautiful, and when she wasn't smiling, she was as calm as a snow sculpture made of water, but when she smiled, she was very energetic. Gu Xiyan's eyes froze, and a dark fear flashed through her eyes. When she heard Tang Niannian's words clearly, she almost breathed a sigh of relief.

After holding it back, his voice could not help but become louder, "When did I say I would compensate you for this!"

Tang Niannian's smile faded a little and said, "You said yourself that you have some better ones, so you won't be stingy."

Her disdainful and suspicious eyes fell on Gu Xiyan, and she suddenly felt as uncomfortable as if she had been pricked by needles. But she was not willing to give all the treasures she collected to Tang Niannian like this. Bite

Gritting her teeth and frowning, Gu Xiyan's eyes were already filled with anger, and she said coldly: "My sister is too greedy, isn't she?"

"Are you going to default on your debt?" Tang Niannian's bright eyes became colder, and his expression of contempt became more obvious.

Gu Xiyan almost gritted her teeth, and her anger became more obvious. It's not that she was stingy, but if she really gave it to her, then she would really lose. Not only did she lose the battle, but she also had to give her the only four treasures.

This is how she can live with her face.

"Sister, you are too unreasonable!"

Tang Niannian stared at her intently and said calmly: "There's no point in refusing to pay. What's mine is mine. Either send it over later, or I'll ask Gu Hong to pick it up tomorrow."

She said it in a calm, natural and forceful way. But because it was Siling Guhong himself who said that he would get it as long as she wanted it, it turned out to be true. What's more, this thing should have been hers now, and Gu Hong

If she was not allowed to run away, then it would be natural for him to help her get it back.

But these words sounded naked and provocative to Gu Xiyan, especially the previous sentence 'Whatever is mine is mine' and the second sentence 'Let Gu Hong go get it', together it sounded like...

implies another thing.

"My sister is so majestic!" Gu Xiyan suddenly stood up, her clothes not moving in the wind, suppressing her anger and said: "I want to see where my sister gets such confidence, we'll see!" Turn around!

The road back and forth leaves.

Tang Niannian glanced at her back and said, "She is obviously a stingy person."

Gu Xiyan's graceful back froze, trembling slightly, and she couldn't find the willows fluttering in the wind when she came, and her steps were graceful.

"Mother." Zhu Miaolong and others could not see Gu Xiyan's figure, so they took a step forward, handed Tang Niannian a pill, and said, "Mother may not know that Miss Xiyan is actually an alchemist with the same strength as her subordinates.

, she likes to use powder, and I’m afraid there’s something wrong with the fragrance on her body just now.”

"I know." Tang Niannian ate the elixir in her hand like candy. How could the poisonous gas around her that had not completely dissipated be hidden from her eyes.

If you know it, it will definitely be fine, so why waste my elixir. These words just flashed through Zhu Miaolong's mind. She also knew some of Tang Niannian's temperament and was immune to it. Suddenly, she

Thinking of Tang Niannian's other more obvious temperament besides greed, it seems that the mistress is... very narrow-minded?

"Ahem, mistress." Zhu Miaolong called hesitantly.

"Huh?" Tang Niannian touched the cracks on the chessboard.

"Could you have also attacked Miss Xiyan?" She felt that this possibility was very high.

Tang Niannian nodded, narrowed his eyebrows and curled his mouth.

Zhu Miaolong looked at her expression, and suddenly realized that the mistress seemed to be more angry than before for some reason, and her expression became more emotional, but also more unpredictable. He asked: "Mother, what did you do?

Isn’t the medicine heavy?”

Tang Niannian answered the question inappropriately, "I didn't take any medicine."

Zhu Miaolong was startled. He just admitted that he had done it a moment ago, so why now he said that he did not do it?

Tang Niannian asked without blinking, "Did you see me drugging you?"

"No." Zhu Miaolong said without hesitation. Tang Niannian had been admired by her sincerely during her journey as an alchemist. She had never noticed the effort in administering the medicine. If Tang Niannian suddenly attacked her one day, she would have no rudeness to resist.

.

Tang Niannian shrugged, "That's it." His expression returned to being cold and focused, and he continued to play chess.

Chess games are like battles in life, big or small, ever-changing and unpredictable. Chess skills can tell a person's depth of mind and behavior. Speaking of Tang Niannian's chess skills, only by personal experience can we understand the feeling.

The black and white chess pieces on the chessboard in front of her were already in a mess.

Zhu Miaolong looked at the chess game, in which the players seemed to have no idea how to play chess, and then looked at Tang Niannian, who looked attentive. He felt an inexplicable awe in his heart that he had never felt before.

Tang Niannian is like the chess game in her hand. Looking at it casually, she feels that it is so harmless that it makes people laugh and helpless. There is no threat at all, and it even makes people feel that it is not worth mentioning at all. Everything is clear at a glance. Then no one will know

Thinking of this purity, it is not only the purity of ignorance, but she is still pure and clear even when she uses tricks to play ruthless tricks. It is difficult for people to guard against, and they can only face it head-on, not even using tricks to ignore it.

In the past, she had only respect but no fear for Tang Niannian. Now, this sudden fear has penetrated deeply into her heart, and she no longer dares to have the slightest contempt for Tang Niannian.
