Chapter 626 Playing Chess Again
The big boss on the other side looked at Gu Nan who came in with him and said, "Gu Nan, I heard that you went abroad in the past six months, and now you are an engineer. You are really young and promising."
Gu Nan just smiled and didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at the leader and said, "Leader, we haven't played chess for such a long time. Why don't we play a game today?"
The big boss just likes to play chess with Gu Nan. After all, only when playing chess with Gu Nan can there be wins and losses. But when playing chess with other people, for some reason, his chess skills will improve and they are no match for him.
In fact, the big boss had no doubts at first, but after meeting Gu Nan, he understood that they were all giving in to him and only Gu Nan showed his real skills.
But what the big boss didn't know was that Gu Nan didn't use his best effort, otherwise, with the big boss being such a bad chess player, he would have no chance of winning at all.
Gu Nan and the big boss fought back and forth on the chessboard, neither giving in. After several rounds of fierce confrontation, the game ended with a win and a loss.
"Uncle, your chess skills are getting better and better!" Gu Nan praised sincerely.
The big boss smiled and responded modestly: "Haha, you must have neglected practice abroad, otherwise with your talent, how could you lose to an old man like me."
Gu Nan nodded in agreement: "You are right, it is indeed difficult to find a rival abroad. However, it is almost noon, so let me show you my cooking skills today."
The big boss smiled happily: "Haha, I was waiting for you to do this! I didn't expect you to be abroad for half a year. I almost couldn't wait for you to come back."
Gu Nan looked at the leader and said quickly, "Uncle, please don't say that. You are in such good health, you can live at least another 30 years!"
After hearing this, the leader just smiled and said nothing.
Seeing this, Gu Nan turned around and walked straight to the kitchen. After entering the kitchen, he first poured out some of the water in the water tank of the leader's home, then took out a small bottle of spiritual water from his backpack and carefully poured it into the water tank.
This spiritual water was obtained by Gu Nan by chance, and it has the magical effect of improving physical fitness. He thought that as the leader got older, his physical functions would inevitably decline. If he could drink this spiritual water for a long time, it might be beneficial to his health.
Gu Nan walked into the kitchen with brisk steps. He looked around and secretly thought about what delicious dishes to make today.
He opened the ring and took out a bunch of fresh ingredients from it. These ingredients were specially prepared by him and guaranteed to make a sumptuous meal.
Gu Nan put on an apron and began to process the ingredients skillfully. His cutting skills were like flowing water, and each cut was precise and neat. In a short while, all kinds of vegetables and meat were cut into even small pieces.
At the same time, the leader's wife and Ran Qiuye were chatting happily in the living room, while Gu Shiwan was quietly held by Ran Qiuye, not crying or making a fuss, and was very well-behaved.
Gu Nan was busy in the kitchen, and the sound of the spatula hitting the bottom of the pot was like a beautiful symphony. He cooked every dish with his heart, incorporating his passion and love for his family into each dish.
After a period of careful cooking, a table of delicious food was finally presented to everyone.
"Uncle, the meal is ready. Come and taste whether my cooking skills have deteriorated." Gu Nan shouted with a smile on his face.
The leader smelled the aroma of the food, nodded with satisfaction, and then walked to the table and sat down. He picked up a piece of food and put it in his mouth. After chewing it carefully, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Well, not bad, although half a year has passed, your cooking skills have not only not declined, but have even improved."
Gu Nan smiled modestly: "Uncle, you are too kind. You don't know that the food foreigners eat is very simple, either bread or sandwiches, which can't fill them up at all. So when I was abroad, I cooked for myself and met many like-minded friends."
The big boss smiled and nodded: "That's right, when you are away from home, you can make enough food and clothing for yourself. And through cooking, you can also make friends with different people and broaden your horizons. You have indeed grown a lot in the past six months. Now you are also a father. You must be more stable in the future, understand?"
Gu Nan nodded solemnly, indicating that he understood the leader's teachings. Then, he picked up Gu Shiwan and said to her gently, "Baby, it's time to eat." Then, he called Ran Qiuye to come over and enjoy this delicious lunch.
Seeing that Gu Nan still cared about his wife, the boss didn't say anything else.
After the meal, Gu Nan was thinking about cleaning up, but the leader’s wife said that it was not his responsibility to take care of such matters.
The leader looked at Gu Nan and said, "Gu Nan, come up and kill another round."
Gu Nan didn't say anything, and Ran Qiuye took the child over: "You go play chess with your uncle, I'll take care of the child."
Gu Nan nodded and went upstairs, then slowly began to play chess: "Gu Nan, do you understand the situation now?"
Gu Nan knew what the leader meant, but he was just an engineer now, so he should say less: "Uncle, the current situation has indeed changed, but it is not a good change."
The big boss didn't understand what Gu Nan meant at once: "Get lost, you mean this reform is not good."
Gu Nan knew that this was only possible here. If he were outside, he couldn’t say anything. “Yes, because what we need at this time is the economy.”
Gu Nan didn't say the rest, but looked outside: "Uncle, we have been bothering you here for too long, and Gu Shiwan needs to rest, so we will go back first."
The big boss nodded and said, "Okay, you can go back first. Remember, you can come to me if you have any problems."
Gu Nan knew that the big leader would not have an easy life in the future, but he did not say anything. He would secretly help the big leader when the time came.
When Gu Nan returned home, He Yuzhu had just woken up. He was almost mad at Gu Nan. After all, if it weren't for Gu Nan, he would have to wait there for a whole night.
He Yuzhu planned to have a good rest today. He still had to go there and keep an eye on it in the evening. He had to see how Gu Nan transported the vegetables over.
When He Yuzhu was going out, he happened to meet Qin Huairu. He didn't want to talk and just went in directly. After all, who knew that Qin Huairu was full of bad intentions.
At this time, Qin Huairu also saw He Yuzhu, so she followed He Yuzhu in directly: "Zhuzi, are you still planning to go over tonight?"
