Chapter 1558: Chapter 1558: Dai Ye Goes on an Expedition

Two days later, the day Grandpa and Wang Jianzi’s grandfather had agreed upon finally arrived. Practically the whole family came along—Granny, Jian Dan, Chu Liyuan, and the four little ones were all present.

"Bringing so many people with you, huh? Trying to make yourself look more intimidating? Let me tell you, it won’t work. No matter how many people you bring, you still won’t win! Why don’t you come at me one by one? I promise I’ll take out each and every one of you without leaving a trace," Wang Jianzi’s grandfather said arrogantly.

"Ha! You’re one to talk! Have you seen how many people you brought with you?" Grandpa said, pointing at the crowd behind Wang Jianzi.

"These are all fans who admire my legendary reputation. They’ve come to watch the match," Wang Jianzi spoke with the tone of someone who’d already declared himself victorious.

"Wang Jianzi, oh Wang Jianzi, today I’m going to see how your face hits the floor."

"Stop with the nonsense already! Let’s begin!" Wang Jianzi had already taken his seat in front of the chessboard.

Jian Dan saw this and promptly sat down as well.

"You, little lass, what’s the meaning of this?" Wang Jianzi looked up at the young girl sitting across from him.

"Sitting down to play chess, of course. What else would I be doing?" Jian Dan had already witnessed this grandpa’s arrogance earlier and felt compelled to restore Grandpa’s dignity.

"You? A snot-nosed little lass? You want to play chess against me? Do you even have your wits about you?" Wang Jianzi clearly didn’t take Jian Dan seriously.

"Grandpa, your words leave little room. But, if you lose later, wouldn’t your face hit the floor?" Jian Dan retorted without holding back.

"Haha, such a bold little lass."

"We’ll see who’s truly bold soon enough." Since he was an elder, Jian Dan tried to soften her tone and didn’t push too hard.

"Old Chu, are you really planning to let this little lass take your place? Don’t say I didn’t warn you! Don’t think bringing in a young girl will save your dignity. Let me tell you—it’s impossible!" Wang Jianzi stood up and shouted at Chu Zhiyuan.

"Lass, you’re up." Chu Zhiyuan ignored Wang Jianzi, turning to Jian Dan instead.

"Don’t worry, Grandpa!" Jian Dan gave Grandpa a reassuring look.

"Alright then, but don’t blame me for being ruthless today. Watch how I crush you completely!"

"Go ahead, Grandpa. You make the first move," Jian Dan gestured politely.

"How about you go first instead? I wouldn’t want people saying I don’t know how to respect the younger generation." Wang Jianzi said with immense pride.

"Are you sure?"

"Of course!"

"Alright then!" Jian Dan didn’t hesitate and made the first move.

At first, Wang Jianzi didn’t take Jian Dan seriously, playing in a casual, dismissive manner. But as the match progressed, beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead, and his expression turned significantly more serious.

Wang Jianzi’s chess skills were indeed impressive—it was no wonder Grandpa had lost to him twenty times. But now he was up against Jian Dan.

Jian Dan’s mastery of chess was extraordinary.

Finally, the first match ended, with Jian Dan claiming an overwhelming victory.

"I’ve won."

"I was just going easy on you since you’re a young girl. Next round, I won’t be holding back."

Jian Dan smiled without saying a word.

A full forty matches later...

"So, Old Wang, do you see now how impressive my granddaughter-in-law is? The way you were bragging earlier—it’s honestly embarrassing now, don’t you think?" Chu Zhiyuan finally seized the chance and wouldn’t let it slip without a little mockery.

"Hahaha... A good match against a worthy opponent, wine shared between kindred spirits—these are life’s great joys! I suppose today was one of those moments. I’m happy!"

"Oh, cut the act, Old Wang. Who couldn’t see through all of that?" Chu Zhiyuan stepped forward and added.

Wang Jianzi ignored Chu Zhiyuan entirely, walked over to Jian Dan, and said, "Let’s spar again when we have the chance." After saying that, he turned and left with his entourage.

"Haha! I’m absolutely thrilled! That defeated look on his face just now was priceless! Little Jian, you’re amazing!" Chu Zhiyuan laughed and gave Jian Dan a big thumbs up.

Seeing Grandpa so happy, the whole family couldn’t help but feel delighted as well. And so, later that evening, Grandpa made a "major" decision.
