The Way of the Blind Girl Chess Saint

Hua Shenxi grew increasingly angry. Luo Zhuyu had gone to great lengths to ask her for help, but her attitude was far too arrogant! She shouldn't have agreed to lend her the umbrella in the first place! Humph…

Although An Ruotong, Wang Jun, and others also only lost one game, Hua Shenxi had the highest total score among those who only lost one game, as can be seen from her table number "3" in this round.

"Hey... wait!" Just as Hua Shenxi was getting angry, Luo Zhuyu suddenly reached out her slender right arm to stop her from walking any further, her dark green pupils looking curiously to the side.

In the pouring rain, a girl with long, curly golden hair rushed out from near the two of them, holding an umbrella.

"Ah...it's that bitch. What's so good-looking about her? She's ugly as hell, and her behavior is anything but ladylike."

Hua Shenxi glanced at Cui Jinhuang, who was running in the rain, and asked with some confusion. She took out a small mirror she always carried in her pocket and looked at herself. After looking at her butterfly pupils and cute loli face in the mirror, Hua Shenxi nodded with satisfaction, shaking her long pink pear-shaped hair.

With my looks, even if Xiaoyu has someone she likes, she'll definitely be mine!

Chapter 116: Conflict

In the pouring rain, a girl with long, curly golden hair rushed out from near the two of them, holding an umbrella.

"Ah...it's that bitch. What's so good-looking about her? She's ugly as hell, and her behavior is anything but ladylike."

With my looks, even if Xiaoyu has someone she likes, she'll definitely be mine!

"I remember her brother is quite good. He's the one the teacher mentioned. I heard he has a professional 3-dan or higher skill level and he'll be participating in the same professional assessment as us," Luo Zhuyu said, frowning in thought.

"Professional level 3? That's a lie. If he's that strong, why didn't he take the professional exam last year?"

As soon as Luo Zhuyu finished speaking, Hua Shenxi, playing with her pink pear-shaped hair, snorted coldly.

"Also, she's running so fast, she must be furious about losing the game, let's ignore her."

------

"Damn it...damn it! I lost again! How could she beat me...my chess skills are clearly strong enough!"

A girl with long, curly, golden hair was running wildly in the pouring rain, holding an umbrella, but her legs were still splashed with rainwater despite having an umbrella.

Cui Jinhuang gritted his teeth in resentment and walked into the hotel with his long, golden curly hair hanging down.

After losing to An Ruotong in the eighth round, she sadly wiped away her tears. The difference of five and a half points was already a huge blow to her pride.

After putting away his umbrella, Cui Jinhuang looked down at his slightly wet boots and calves, and his already sad mood worsened.

--------------------

"Ah... Sister Yingting, Sister Qiyue is waiting for you, let's go eat together!" Ji Yingting had just stepped out of the restroom when she heard Xin Yufei's call.

A cute little girl with a black bun hairstyle popped out from in front of her.

Ugh... I was planning to skip them and go back to my room to sleep, but she caught me!! That wretched Yufei!!

Ji Yingting shook her green head helplessly, raised her hand to pinch a few strands of green hair that had fallen across her forehead, and then unleashed a storm of forgiveness on Xin Yufei's head.

Snap... Snap, Snap, Snap.

Ji Yingting's right hand lashed Xin Yufei with a bluish-green whip, turning her head from side to side like a little roly-poly toy.

"Waaah! Sakuraba-nee, why are you hitting me again?!" Xin Yufei's two black pupils were filled with tears as she said with a puzzled and aggrieved expression.

However, in the next second, Ji Yingting gently smiled and said something that broke Xin Yufei's heart.

"Because it's fun to hit your little head!"

“Wa ...

"Oh dear, sweetie, it was your fault, don't cry." Ji Yingting gently patted Yufei's black bun and hugged her little head to her chest, stroking it all over.

Mmm, it feels so good to be in Sakuraba-nee's arms.

Xin Yufei immediately stopped crying. She leaned her black baozi against Ji Yingting's chest, squinted her eyes, and obediently enjoyed the caress of Ji Yingting's slender hands.

In reality, Ji Yingting had already treated her like a well-behaved little puppy. [What a sweet little puppy!! It would be even better if she could stick her tongue out while being petted.]

Ji Yingting happily stroked her. Although Yufei was already slightly taller than him, she looked like a cute big puppy nestled in his arms.

"Alright, alright, let's go eat some dog food... oh no, let's go eat dinner." Ji Yingting skillfully led Xin Yufei's little hand towards the restaurant.

"Okay," Xin Yufei said, still half asleep, wiping away tears of gratitude from the corners of her eyes. Sakuraba-nee had finally agreed to hug her.

Ji Yingting, however, did not notice a girl with long golden hair walking towards her with her head down. Cui Jinhuang, who had been in a daze, seemed not to see anyone at all and bumped into her.

Boom!

Their calves got tangled together in an instant, and Ji Yingting accidentally fell forward.

"Well!!"

With a scream from Ji Yingting, her long, light green hair suddenly fell loose behind her, and her soft knees, encased in white stockings beneath her light green skirt, slammed to the ground.

Boom! !

Fortunately, Ji Yingting managed to brace herself with her hands, but she still pursed her lips slightly in pain.

"Hmph, can't you even watch where you're going?" Cui Jinhuang stopped and said to Ji Yingting with displeasure, her calf a little sore from the bump Ji Yingting had given her.

Xin Yufei snapped out of her daze and immediately dropped to the ground in a panic, crying out, "Sister Yingting! Are you alright?!"

Because the hotel floor is made of hard and smooth stone, it would be very painful for someone like Ji Yingting to fall forward like that.

Xin Yufei's dark eyes widened as she saw a small hole in Ji Yingting's white stockings at the knee, and a faint red bloodstain remained on her once fair knee.

A few seconds later, Ji Yingting hugged her knees and sat down on the ground, looking aggrieved. Her pale purple starry eyes were filled with glistening tears. "My knees hurt so much!"

"Whoo, whoo, whoo"

Her thighs, encased in white stockings, swayed a few times. Ji Yingting bent down and blew cool air into the bloodstain on the small hole in her knee with her cherry-like lips.

"Ah! You've even bruised yourself!! What's wrong with you, woman! Why did you deliberately trip Sister Yingting?" Xin Yufei stood up angrily and dragged Cui Jinhuang over from a short distance away.

However, Cui Jinhuang, a primary school student, was no match for Xin Yufei, a junior high school student, in terms of strength. She was pulled over by Xin Yufei in just a few seconds.

"I...I didn't mean to, I just didn't see her."

Upon seeing the bloodstains on Ji Yingting's knees, Cui Jinhuang felt a pang of panic and subtly avoided Xin Yufei's angry gaze.

However, she still recognized Ji Yingting's long, light green bun hair. Wasn't she the opponent she lost to in the first round?

She almost lost her chance to compete and was even slapped in the face.

Recalling what happened on the first day, she was still somewhat angry. Cui Jinhuang immediately questioned loudly, "And I was walking with my head down just now! She clearly bumped into me on her own. Isn't she blind? Why are you blaming me?"

Others had already started to gather around to watch, but... what happened the next second was beyond Cui Jinhuang's expectations.

"Slap!" A crisp sound came from her side as Xin Yufei swung her right white cheongsam sleeve and slapped Cui Jinhuang hard across the face.

This slap... was very heavy, even heavier than the slap Ji Hongying had given Cui Jinhuang.

A red mark appeared on his cheek. Cui Jinhuang covered his cheek and slumped back to the ground, staring blankly at Xin Yufei.

…………

She was completely stunned, and a loud ringing sound came through her ears.

"Sakuraba-nee...Sakuraba-nee is blind! What do you mean she's blind! You scum!"

With a sob in her voice, Xin Yufei shouted at Cui Jinhuang. This was the first time in her life that she had ever hit someone... and the first time she had ever spoken so loudly.

Chapter 117: Xin Yufei's Grievance

"Ah...it hurts a little."

Ji Yingting lay comfortably on the bed as a cute young woman dressed in a white nurse's uniform applied a light blue medicine to her knee.

With a hiss, after applying the medicine, the nurse tore off a roll of bandage and wrapped it around Ji Yingting's knee, also covering the small hole in her white stockings.

"Although the equipment is very basic... the medicine is the latest type. It can be removed after about half an hour. If you find it troublesome tonight, then come back tomorrow. Remember not to take a shower," the nurse said. How could such a pretty girl be so careless as to get hurt?

After saying that, the nurse used a comb to smooth Ji Yingting's long, bluish-green hair, which was a little messy even as she lay on the hospital bed.

"Okay, thank you, nurse." Ji Yingting nodded, her long, light green hair swaying, and quietly walked out of the ward in her blue cloth boots.

"Sakura, are you done?" A girl with purple hair and a bob haircut was waiting on a chair outside the infirmary. Qi Yue stood up and took her arm after seeing Ji Sakura come out of the ward.

Ji Yingting shook her little green head and answered, then asked with some concern, "Yes, everything's alright now. How is Yufei?"

"Hmm...you should know that the two of them started fighting right there in the hotel lobby...Luckily, they fought in the hotel lobby and not in the competition venue, so it's considered a private matter for the players, otherwise they would definitely both be suspended."

"However, that little girl named Cui Jinhuang was such a jerk. Although she didn't seem to hear that you were blind, she still started fighting with Yufei..."

"Of course... because her behavior of bullying blind people was so egregious, she was temporarily suspended for one round by the referees and can only participate in the final round," Qi Yue said with a hint of schadenfreude, supporting Ji Yingting's arm.

When Qi Yue heard at the restaurant entrance that Cui Jinhuang had bullied Ji Yingting, she was also very angry...

But Yufei really dared to hit a child so hard... That little girl named Cui Jinhuang must have been slapped several times, right? Her face was covered in swollen marks from the slaps.

"Sakuraba, what do you think?" Qi Yue asked quietly. Sakuraba is so gentle, would she forgive that little girl so easily? They are both very angry.

"Hmm?... Luckily, Yufei wasn't suspended, but that little girl's manners were really quite low."

Ji Yingting pursed her lips, looking slightly sullen. No matter how saintly and forgiving she usually was, she was still very happy.

But if a blind person is tripped up by someone and then told they don't have eyes, then the forgiving court would definitely be angry.

"Snap!" Ji Yingting thought as she snapped off a strand of green hair.

Let's go see Yufei.

"Okay, she's eating at the restaurant now, trying to calm herself down."

-------------------------------

"Glug glug glug," a little girl with long black hair in a bun was drinking the century egg and lean pork porridge in big gulps, and soon she had finished it all.

"Phew," Xin Yufei breathed a slight sigh of relief after putting down the bowl.

"Yufei, are you sure you're okay eating so much?" A female member of the Minghaiji Middle School Go Club asked with some concern. Yufei had been eating non-stop since earlier... It's scary.

"I'm so angry!! How dare she bully Sakuraba-nee like that, she's a beast! I wish I could slap her a few more times!"

Xin Yufei said with a slightly aggrieved expression, then buried her face in her hands and leaned on the table.

Ultimately, this was the first time she had ever hit someone... It's impossible for her not to be a little scared, but in the end, it was the other person who was suspended... She was probably right, wasn't she?
