Pei Yubai was just about to make a video call to Qiguan Yuan when Song Yuan announced that the next match was about to begin.

Pei Yubai could only hand his phone to his personal assistant and go to work.

After his assistant got into the car, Qiguan Yuan drove back to the film and television base with the assistant.

The assistant drove to the parking lot, telling Qiguan Yuan to go ahead on his own and not to wait for him.

So Qiguan Yuan leisurely entered the film and television base and headed in the exact opposite direction from Pei Yubai's filming location.

Dust-Settling Red Cord twirled around Qiguan Yuan's hand, trying to remind Qiguan Yuan, but Qiguan Yuan pinched it instead, and then she started to play dead.

Fine, if the master doesn't want to listen, then forget it.

Qiguan Yuan thought he had walked this path several times and should remember it, so he followed his intuition and went there.

They had no idea they had chosen the opposite direction.

Qiguan Yuan walked along the stone path, passing a gray brick building, a bamboo grove, and a long corridor.

At the end of the corridor was the back door of the teahouse, which was open, and Shen Yuzhou's voice could be heard coming from inside.

At this moment, apart from Pei Yubai and Ji Shiyu, the other guests are recording a variety show in Song Zhuangyi's teahouse.

Today, Go champion Song Zhuangyi will be a guest speaker to teach them how to play Go.

Shen Yuzhou sat in front of the chessboard, holding a black piece in his hand, unsure of where to put it.

He sat opposite Song Zhuangyi, Song Zhuangyi held a teacup in his hand and did not urge him.

To Shen Yuzhou's left is Cheng Yanqiu, Cheng Yanqiu is also looking at her own chessboard. Her white pieces are surrounded by black pieces and she can't find a way out.

On the right is Lin Yanru. Lin Yanru's game is almost over. She doesn't place her pieces quickly, but each move is very steady.

Next to Lin Yanru was Su He'an, Su He'an was holding a chess piece, which was suspended above the chessboard, as he pondered.

Jiang Wantang sat at the very edge. The number of black and white pieces on her chessboard was about the same, and the situation was very balanced. She was still playing.

Song Zhuangyi took a sip of tea, put the cup down, and said, "You made a mistake. This move shouldn't have been made here."

He pointed to a spot on Shen Yuzhou's chessboard with his finger.

Shen Yuzhou looked at that spot and placed the chess piece there. Song Zhuangyi shook his head and said that this move was even worse.

Shen Yuzhou picked up the chess piece, unsure where to put it, his hand hovering in mid-air.

Why is this Go game so difficult?! Why is Meng Xu trying to trick him like this?

If it weren't for the fact that Brother Pei was also on Meng Xu's show, he really couldn't think of anything that would make him go on this show to suffer.

Unable to continue, Shen Yuzhou looked up out the window.

Just then, I saw a figure walking slowly.

Shen Yuzhou's eyes widened. Red clothes and silver hair—who else could it be but Qiguan Yuan?

The chess piece in his hand fell onto the chessboard with a crisp sound, " Brother Yuan!"

His voice was loud enough that everyone in the teahouse could hear it.

Everyone looked in the direction where Shen Yuzhou was waving his hand so forcefully.

As Shen Yuzhou shouted it out, the barrage of comments sped up considerably. As always, Qiguan Yuan was the stimulant for these viewers.

Whenever Qiguan Yuan is involved, the comments section becomes anything but calm.

Qiguan Yuan was walking along, trying to recognize the way. The path looked familiar, so he figured he hadn't gone the wrong way.

Just then, he heard Shen Yuzhou and turned his head to look.

I glanced at the place where Shen Yuzhou was. It was a very familiar room, and the decor was familiar too. Looking up at the sign above the door, I realized it was the teahouse where he had played chess and drunk tea that day.

He remembered that this teahouse seemed to be some distance from where Pei Yubai was performing. After thinking for a moment, he turned around and walked into the teahouse.

Song Zhuangyi was overjoyed to see Qiguan Yuan.

He learned from Song Yuan that Qiguan Yuan seemed to be involved in the recording of a variety show called " Travel to That Unknown Place ".

So when the young man from the Meng Family approached him, saying he wanted to record a live broadcast at his teahouse for a day and also asked him to be a temporary guest to guide the guests in playing chess so they could complete their tasks for the day, Song Zhuangyi agreed.

He was hoping to play another game with Qiguan Yuan, but when the guests arrived today, Qiguan Yuan was nowhere to be seen.

Although somewhat disappointed, he still strictly instructed the guests since he had promised Meng Xu.

Unexpectedly, things took a turn for the better, and he was able to meet Qiguan Yuan. Song Zhuangyi, who had been sternly instructing the guests, couldn't help but show a look of joy.

Qiguan Yuan entered the teahouse, glanced around, and walked towards where the guests were.

The space is quite large, with a table in front of each guest, each with a chessboard on it.

Most of them are beginners; they're probably just practicing their moves now.

Qiguan Yuan casually leaned against a rather large screen next to the guests, looking down at the messy arrangement of the Shen Yuzhou.

Qiguan Yuan did not comment on the way the other Go Xiaobai held their stones, except for Lin Yanru; in his opinion, they were simply unbearable to look at.

It's really asking too much of these people who don't even know how to hold the pieces to play chess.

Song Zhuangyi stood up from his chair and walked to Qiguan Yuan: "Young friend Qiguan, we meet again."

His tone was much warmer than Shen Yuzhou's and the others.

Even if these guests know absolutely nothing about Go, we still need to be strict when teaching them how to play.

But Qiguan Yuan is different.

Ever since he played that game with Qiguan Yuan the day before yesterday, he's been dreaming about playing against Qiguan Yuan again.

Qiguan Yuan nodded to Song Zhuangyi: "Mr. Song."

Song Zhuangyi invited him to sit down, then turned to the teahouse waiter and said, "Prepare tea, Dragon Ball Tea, Snow-White Tea."

The waiter responded and went to leave.

Qiguan Yuan didn't say much. Since they could drink tea and play another game of chess, there was no rush to find Pei Yubai.

Qiguan Yuan sat down opposite Song Zhuangyi.

Shen Yuzhou moved his chessboard aside and continued to stare blankly at the endgame.

Cheng Yanqiu leaned over for a look and said, "Your chess is hopeless," unable to resist making a sarcastic remark.

Shen Yuzhou said, "You're not much better than me, why should elder brother laugh at second brother?"

The two equally matched individuals exchanged a glance, then simultaneously lowered their heads to continue their struggle on their respective chessboards.

Lin Yanru had finished the endgame and was putting the pieces back into the chess box one by one.

Su He'an was still playing; her moves were steady, and she thought long and hard about each move.

Jiang Wantang was the most focused throughout. Apart from Lin Yanru, who had some basic skills, she was the fastest progressing. Her game was almost over, and the sound of her placing a piece was very soft, with black and white pieces intertwined on the board.

Meanwhile, Song Zhuangyi and Qiguan Yuan had already set up their chessboards.

Song Zhuangyi plays black, Qiguan Yuan plays white.

Black's first move is at the small eye point in the upper right corner, while White's move is at the star point in the lower left corner.

The two players didn't move their pieces quickly, but they didn't need to think too long before making each move.

Song Zhuangyi's playing style is steady, and he always makes the most reasonable moves.

Qiguan Yuan's chess skills were more flexible than his. He knew when to defend and when to attack, without rushing or hesitating. His expression remained lazy, and there was no sign of pressure on his face.

Song Zhuangyi knew that Qiguan Yuan was still not using his full strength against him.

But that's enough. If the opponent goes all out, he'll most likely lose badly.

The comments section was already buzzing with excitement when Qiguan Yuan appeared in the teahouse scene.

[ Yuanyuan [starry-eyed]]

[Hehe, I knew there would be rewards for skipping meals and staying in the live stream, and here I am, waiting for Yuanyuan!]

[As beautiful as ever, a daily question: Why can't Yuanyuan be my wife?]

Besides the Xiao Yuan Grains Imperial Fans came because of the aroma, there were also members of the Taro Balls Go Association who came after smelling the aroma.

The newly registered account of the vice president of the Go Association was the first to appear in the comments, saying, "Young friend Qiguan's Go skills are truly captivating."

Next came the accounts of several professional Go players. Some were analyzing Black's opening moves, some were praising White's brilliant response, and some were guessing who would win.

No one is saying anymore that Qiguan Yuan should join the Go Association. They said it the day before yesterday, Qiguan Yuan refused, so they stopped talking about it.

They should maintain basic courtesy towards Qiguan Yuan and refrain from doing anything that would make Qiguan Yuan feel uncomfortable.

Unlike live streams featuring individuals, live streams on variety shows, even if you're a member of the Go Association, won't have fans quietly watching and discussing members of the Go Association.

Those who still admire his looks will continue to admire him.
