Chapter 461: Snow on the Desk of the Infatuated Alliance Leader (63)
"..."
Bai Chao opened his eyes and adjusted the eye mask on his face.
The man seemed to be obsessed with sewing eye patches. He had done at least seven or eight of them so far and didn't think it was troublesome.
Jing Hengzhou carefully observed the effect of Bai Chao wearing the eye mask and took note of all the unsatisfactory details in his mind.
The man kept looking around, and Bai Chao turned his head away, unable to bear it any longer.
"What catches your eyes."
"Is it comfortable for the young master to wear?"
Bai Chao didn't want to answer, so he turned his head and asked, "Where's my Snow Soul Pearl?"
"Here." Jing Hengzhou took out a round bead from his sleeve and handed it to Bai Chao.
"..."
Bai Chao took the Snow Soul Pearl, his face unhappy: "How dare you hide my things so casually."
Jing Hengzhou coaxed, "I was just keeping it for the young master who had carelessly put it away."
"Why should you keep my things?"
"Then does Young Master still remember where he placed the Snow Soul Pearl?"
Bai Chao paused: "It's just on the table or under the pillow."
Jing Hengzhou shook his head.
"When the young master was feeding the bird earlier, he casually placed it on the birdcage."
Bai Chao: “…”
He lowered his head and touched the Snow Soul Pearl.
"Oh."
Jing Hengzhou suppressed his laughter and changed the subject: "Young Master, do you like playing chess?"
"do not like."
"Oh? That's a shame for this gold-inlaid jade chessboard..."
Bai Chao was indeed interested and raised his head: "Gold inlaid with jade?"
Jing Hengzhou pointed to a sandalwood box that had appeared on the table beside him. "Yes, even the chess pieces are made of the finest white jade, each one wrapped in gold, and they can shine even in the night."
Bai Chao then noticed the box, and a hint of interest appeared on his face.
"You're out again?"
"Yes, the young master was sleeping very soundly, so I went to look for some interesting things. It's a pity that the young master doesn't like playing chess..."
"..."
Bai Chao raised his chin and said, "I really don't like playing chess, but someone gave me a nice crystal chessboard. It actually piqued my interest in playing chess. It's a pity it's gone. I don't know if it was stolen by a thief."
Jing Hengzhou: “…”
He knew that this person still missed the crystal chessboard, otherwise he would not have spent a large sum of money to buy this gold and jade chessboard.
Bai Chao deliberately added fuel to the fire: "It's just a chessboard after all. Yours is definitely not as good as my crystal chessboard. You'd better take it away quickly and don't get in my way."
"Young Master, if you don't try this chessboard, how will you know it's no better than an ordinary chessboard made of crystal?"
"What's the point of trying? Playing alone is not very interesting."
Jing Hengzhou held Bai Chao's hand and said, "I want to play chess with Young Master. Will you give me a chance?"
Bai Chao lowered his eyes and looked at the man's hands: "You also know how to play chess?"
"nature."
Jing Hengzhou pinched Bai Chao's palm and said, "It's just that my chess skills are not very good. Please don't laugh at me, Young Master."
"..."
Bai Chao snorted, "Well, I'll give you this chance. Go get the chessboard."
"it is good."
Jing Hengzhou hurried to get the chessboard, but suddenly paused before opening the box.
He laughed a little.
Could it be that he fell into the trap of the young master's provocation?
Jing Hengzhou paused for only a moment before opening the box.
This chessboard was originally given to this person to entertain himself, so he would be willing to give it away even if it was given away like this.
When Bai Chao saw this gold-inlaid jade chessboard, a look of amazement flashed in his eyes.
But he didn't show it on his face and picked up a chess piece.
The white jade chess piece looks like a drop of melted snow under the warm sun on the white fingertips.
