Chapter 221 - 221 182 Shes Here
?Chapter 221: Chapter 182 She’s Here Chapter 221: Chapter 182 She’s Here The attendees of the gathering were already largely introduced by Ye Ruoxi, who swept her gaze around once more before finally settling in the southeastern corner, a direction she had deliberately ignored before.
In the southeastern corner of the gathering, there was a cluster of emerald bamboo, beneath which sat a torreya wood chess pedestal. A man and a woman were seated opposite each other on either side.
However, at this moment the two were not engaged in a game of chess; the match on the board had been played out.
The man on the side of the white pieces was reading, a thick tome resting on his lap. He pinched two white Go pieces between his fingers, twirling them playfully, while his other hand leisurely turned the pages of his book.
The man casually flipped through his book, seemingly engrossed and oblivious to the hubbub of the gathering.
When the gathering’s eyes—all following Ye Ruoxi’s lead—fell upon him, he remained as if deaf to their attention, head unraised.
The man wore plain, dark robes. Although he was looking down, one could roughly make out his countenance was as fine as jade.
The woman opposite him was similarly attired.
The woman on the side of the black pieces wore the simple uniform of a Taiyi Mansion resident student. Her looks, compared to most of the women at the gathering, were unremarkable. Calmly and attentively, she tidied up the chessboard, sorting the white and black pieces into their respective boxes as if it were a matter of great importance.
Ye Ruoxi’s gaze naturally overlooked the young man engrossed in his book; she beamed at the woman on the side of the black pieces and introduced her to the Academy’s scholars:
“This is Senior Sister Yun Zi from Taiyi Mansion. I’ve long admired Senior Sister Yun Zi, but she seldom appears in public. I never expected to meet her here in the Nuanyi Bamboo Garden. Sister Kongyi and Master Du are indeed capable, even inviting Senior Sister Yun Zi, which is a fortunate occasion for me. I’ve heard Senior Sister Yun Zi is preparing for seclusion to forge her Golden Core. Here, I, along with the junior brothers and sisters, wish Senior Sister Yun Zi success in reaching a high-grade Golden Core and a smooth graduation.”
All echoed their agreement.
