My goodness, looking at the reporter who was asking him questions frantically, Xiao Shanyi just smiled and said nothing. He smiled because this might be reported in the newspaper, and he didn't say anything because who knows how they would write it.
In this way, Xiao Shanyi was stuck in the player channel for nearly five minutes. The reporters' questions never stopped. Xiao Shanyi felt that his face was frozen from smiling. The staff of the Chess League finally squeezed through the crowd and brought Xiao Shanyi to the podium with difficulty.
Before going up to the podium, Xiaoshan Yi straightened his clothes which were a little messy due to the crowd, and then walked up to the podium with a smile on his face.
"Okay, our new title holder, Tank Xiaoshan Yi, has come on stage. Let's welcome him with applause."
Clap clap clap.
Xiao Shanyi first bowed to the audience, then walked to the host and took the microphone handed to him.
"Hello everyone, I am Xiao Shanyi."
Xiao Shanyi's simple words drew applause from the audience again.
"Our new title holder, do you have anything to say now?"
"Well, I'm very happy, very excited, very happy, very excited, and a little overwhelmed."
"Wow, it looks like our young title holder is really excited. Let's give him a round of applause to encourage him, okay?"
The audience applauded again.
Kato Megumi chuckled in the audience. This host really knew how to support the audience. And when she looked at Xiaoshan Yi's faint smile, she didn't look excited at all.
"Player Xiaoshan, can you tell us about the beginning of your chess career?"
"Well, I started playing chess under the guidance of my father, and then I continued to learn on my own. Finally, under the guidance of my master, I was able to get to where I am today."
"Then let our contestant Xiaoshan formally give his acceptance speech now."
Xiao Shanyi held the microphone, looked at the audience, and thought for a moment.
"Well, first of all, I am very grateful to my parents. It was them who gave birth to me. Otherwise, I would not be standing here."
Xiao Shanyi's humorous speech caused laughter from the audience.
"Then I would like to thank my master. It is because of his dedicated teaching that I can achieve what I have today."
When Xiaoshan Yi said this, he looked at Kato Megumi who had been staring at him in the audience with a gentle gaze.
"Finally, I would like to thank my goddess of luck for helping me today and allowing me to win."
Xiaoshan Yi did not directly say Kato Megumi's name. He did not want Kato Megumi to be influenced by any bad public opinion. If he said the goddess of luck, others might think it might be God's blessing, but Kato Megumi must know what he meant.
Sure enough, Kato Megumi in the audience covered her mouth with her hands happily, tears of joy welling up in her eyes.
"That's it. That's all I have to say."
After Xiao Shanyi finished speaking, he gestured to the host again.
"Well, thank you Xiaoshan for your wonderful speech. I'm sure everyone is curious about who the master that Xiaoshan mentioned is and who could actually teach such an excellent chess player like Xiaoshan."
"Yeah, who is this person?"
"It seems he knows. I want to become his disciple as well."
"Come on, do you think they'll accept just anyone?"
The host saw that the audience was indeed very curious.
"Okay, then next, we would like to invite Xiaoshan's master, who is also one of the title holders, the Taoist priest Katoyama, to make a medal representing the Ghost Car for Xiaoshan."
Xiaoshan Yi looked to the side of the podium and saw Katoyama holding a box and walking up to the stage with a smile.
"My God, Master is also a title holder, no wonder he has such strength."
"Come on, I have the talent, do you think anyone can do it?"
"One family with two titles. Wow, this master and disciple are an incredible couple."
At this time, Katoyama had already walked up to Xiaoshan Yi with the medal in his hand. Looking at his proudest disciple, who had unknowingly shared the same title with himself, Katoyama was very happy and relieved. Nothing could make a master happier than seeing his disciple succeed.
"You did a great job, little brat."
"As long as I didn't embarrass the master."
Katoyama looked at Xiaoshan Yi who was showing off and gave him a displeased look. Then he couldn't control his smile, and the two master and disciple smiled at each other on the stage.
After the award ceremony, Xiaoshan Yi followed Katoyama to participate in a small interview. This was the chess league’s own newspaper, so the questions asked were not so tricky, and there would be no traps. With Katoyama sitting next to him, Xiaoshan Yi finished the interview calmly.
At night……
"Hahaha, cheers, cheers."
Kato Megumi looked at Kato San who had finished another large glass of beer and frowned as she tried to persuade him.
"Dad, you drank too much."
"Hey Xiaohui, it's okay. As a man, you have to drink some wine when you encounter happy things."
Xiaoshan Yi looked at Kato Shan greedily from the side. If he was not an adult, he would also want to try it.
"Haha, Xiaoyi is right. As a man, how can you not drink? Xiaoyi, do you want to have a drink too?"
Katoyama drank another glass heroically and looked at Xiaoshan Yi in a teasing manner.
"May I?"
Katoyama waved his hand and said, "What's wrong with that? Boss, come here again..."
"There appears to be a sealed envelope in the toilet tank."
Kato Hui looked at Kato Shan meaningfully.
"Dad, do you know what's in it?"
"No, I don't know... No, Xiaohui, you must be mistaken. How could there be any private money there?"
Katosan blushed and shook his head, speaking incoherently.
"Oh, really? Then do you want me to call mom and ask her to check it out?"
Kato Megumi said this and took out her cell phone.
"Wait, I'm drunk. I don't know anything."
As Kato-san said this, he lay down on the table.
Xiao Shanyi looked at the scene in amazement. Is this a married man? Master, before you cheat, please help me get some beer.
"Oh, what a pity."
When Kato Hui heard Xiaoshan Yi's sigh, she glanced at him lightly.
"Xiao Yi, do you want to drink too?"
"No, I don't want to."
Xiao Shanyi’s head suddenly shook like a rattle. Are you kidding? The lesson from the previous incident is still lying on the table.
"Humph."
Kato Hui pouted slightly and she would never let her father drink in front of Xiaoyi in the future. Xiaoyi is not even an adult yet, but he already knows how to lead other kids astray. Can't he wait another two years?
Kato Hui unconsciously thought of two years later, when Xiaoshan Yi finished drinking...
Many images of the male and female protagonists drinking together and then driving after drinking came to my mind.
"Xiaohui, are you okay? Why is your face so red? Is it too hot here?"
Xiaoshan Yi looked at Kato Hui's red face and asked curiously.
"No, nothing... Yeah, it's just too hot. Let's go back to the hotel. I'll wait for you guys outside."
Kato Megumi said this and ran out of the hotel.
Really, why is Xiaohui so weird sometimes?
Xiaoshan Yi looked at Kato Megumi's back with a worried look.
"Master, stop pretending and go back."
Xiaoshan Yi shook Kato Shan's body, but Kato Shan didn't get up for a long time.
"Hu, hu, hu."
Xiaoshan Yi listened to the voice coming from Katosan.
No, it can’t be Σ(っ°Д°;)っ
Xiao Shanyi looked at Katosan in disbelief, and gently turned his head, and sure enough, he saw him sleeping soundly.
Master... is really drunk...
Xiao Shanyi looked at the three beer bottles at hand.
Haha, three bowls is not enough?
Looking at Katoyama who was sleeping soundly, Xiaoshan Yi sighed and said, what else can he do? Just carry him on his back.
In this way, Xiaoshan Yi carried Kato Shan back to the hotel step by step and swore that he would never drink with Kato Shan again.
Chapter 145 Xiao Yi is back (asking for everything)
On the plane back to Hokkaido, what was originally a sweet couple trip consisting of Oyama Ichi and Kato Megumi when they came here ended up being a family of three when they returned.
Xiaoshan Yi looked gloomily at Kato Shan who was standing between him and Kato Megumi.
"What's that look on your face, little brat? Can't I just sit here?"
Katoyama hugged his shoulders with his hands and looked at Xiaoshanyi with a smug look.
"Master, the scenery outside the window is beautiful, do you want to come and see it?"
Xiao Shanyi said tactfully.
"No, I'm afraid of heights."
Katoyama said proudly.
What kind of plane would you take if you are afraid of heights?
Xiao Shanyi complained silently, and then came up with an idea.
"Then Master, why don't you sit near the corridor? It's farther from the window. Aren't you afraid of heights?"
