Chapter 1334: Chapter 1244: Something’s Lost?!_2

"Bai Xiaosheng, you must be a professional Chinese chess player, right? City level, or provincial level?" Sun Jierui insisted on getting the truth out of Bai Xiaosheng.

Beating you is barely the level of those old guys playing shirtless under the willow trees, that’s enough...

Bai Xiaosheng complained silently in his heart.

He didn’t even use Red Lotus’s assistance at all.

The two are now both travel companions and chess buddies, and they get along well with each other.

They immediately hit it off and started chatting.

Sun Jierui is a bona fide Massachusetts native from Ganande City, so Bai Xiaosheng naturally asked him lots of questions about the place.

Massachusetts is a state in America, and according to Sun Jierui, it’s one of the most powerful states.

Of course, that’s what Sun Jierui claimed.

Education, healthcare, and the level of affluence in Massachusetts are among the top in America.

"Ganande is an emerging city. When I was little, it wasn’t nearly as developed as it is now. My family lived near the old airport, which, even now, is a chaotic neighborhood. Luckily, when I got older, my dad made it, and we moved away from there. Otherwise, I’d probably still be loafing around the streets. The truly wealthy parts of Ganande are across, diagonally. In recent years, they added a Chinese District and satellite cities. It’s developing so quickly. I believe that in time, Ganande will take off with the new areas and become the strongest in Massachusetts, and even one of the top cities in all of America."

Sun Jierui spoke of his hometown with undeniable pride.

To this, Bai Xiaosheng felt understanding.

Probably 99% of people think their hometown is the best, right?

"I heard there’s a famous family in Ganande, do you know about them?" Bai Xiaosheng asked.

Sun Jierui shrugged, "As far as I know, there are several large families over there. Asian ones, European ones, many. I can’t possibly know all of them. But I’m familiar with the place, so I can take you around when we get there."

Bai Xiaosheng saw this as an opportunity to chat up a local guide and was moved by the idea.

"Great, it’ll be convenient with you, a local, leading the way," Bai Xiaosheng immediately said with a smile, "I can pay you for your services."

Tipping culture is prevalent in America.

But Sun Jierui waved his hand, "No! I don’t want a guide fee. I’m just taking a liking to you, buddy! We are brothers, who and who!"

Sun Jierui blurted out a sentence in English, and Bai Xiaosheng was taken aback.

The first half of his buddy’s spoken English was passable, meaning, "We are brothers."

But what on earth is the second half?!

who and who?

Parsed word by word, "Who" "and" "who"?

"We are brothers, who and who?"

Bai Xiaosheng was speechless and inwardly critical—

You, an American using Chinglish, is that really okay...

As the two were chatting, the flight attendants came with the meal cart, serving lunch.

Bai Xiaosheng and Sun Jierui packed up the chessboard and each chose their meals.

Sun Jierui had the nerve to shamelessly ask for Lao Gan Ma chili sauce, and upon being informed they didn’t have any, he looked like he was about to die.

The flight attendant’s eyes became incredibly weird.

Bai Xiaosheng hurriedly pretended not to know him to avoid embarrassment.

However, the guy still complained pitifully in front of the flight attendant, "I fly with Sichuan Airlines, and they definitely have Lao Gan Ma. They didn’t have any and wouldn’t let me bring my own. Buddy, tell me, isn’t that too much!"

Under the gaze of the beautiful flight attendant, Bai Xiaosheng could only give a wry smile, shrug his shoulders, and offer an apologetic look.

At that moment, Bai Xiaosheng had the impulse to beat Sun Jierui up.

...

In the afternoon, Bai Xiaosheng and Sun Jierui played Chinese chess for another two hours.

This time, to avenge the earlier embarrassment, Bai Xiaosheng won twelve games in a row, leaving Sun Jierui utterly defeated and wailing in despair.

Just like that, Bai Xiaosheng found himself with a travel companion in Sun Jierui and the journey became far from boring.

Chatting, playing chess, napping, eating.

The time during the trip passed quickly.

When the plane landed at Ganande Airport, it was two o’clock in the afternoon there.

But back in Linshen, it was almost midnight.

Everyone on the plane looked dead beat.

Jet lag is something that really needs sleep to recover from; you can’t just brush it off.

Although Bai Xiaosheng could have Red Lotus adjust his hormones for alertness, sleeping is the healthiest way.

Bai Xiaosheng grabbed his things and got off the plane with Sun Jierui.

Upon landing, Lin Weiwei was already waiting there.

The moment he saw the beauty, Sun Jierui’s eyes lit up, and he approached enthusiastically.

"Bai, this must be your friend, I saw you guys at the security check," Sun Jierui said to Bai Xiaosheng while introducing himself to Lin Weiwei with great enthusiasm, "My name is Sun Jierui, a young and promising fellow, currently studying abroad in China. My English is probably maxed out, and I have a second-grade A-level in Mandarin Chinese..."

Sun Jierui hit up the beauty with the enthusiasm of someone at a matchmaking session, and Bai Xiaosheng could only shake his head.

Lin Weiwei regarded him warily, maintained her poise while shaking hands, and kept glancing at Bai Xiaosheng with a meaningful look in her eyes.

Where did you meet this guy?

Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t stand it anymore, interrupting Sun Jierui’s fervor, squinting his eyes at him, and expressing suspicion, "I’m saying, my boy, ever since you saw Weiwei, you’ve deliberately got close to me. That’s pretty scheming, isn’t it!"

"Haha, do I look like that kind of person?" Sun Jierui laughed it off.

Bai Xiaosheng, Lin Weiwei conveyed with their eyes—

"Not just look like, you definitely are!"

While they were speaking, Lei Ying also got off the plane and walked over.

Seeing Lei Ying’s stature and size, Sun Jierui couldn’t help but exclaim, "Bro, are you a fitness trainer or something?"

Lei Ying did not respond, but gave Bai Xiaosheng a suspicious look, his eyes conveying one message—

"Who’s this guy?"

...
