Outside Qin Fan's mansion, there was no longer the usual scene of people checking in online, and the place looked a little deserted.
Towards that, Qin Fan was naturally quite happy.
At least when he went out, he did not have to hide anymore, and could just walk right out through the front door.
Inside the mansion, Qin Fan sat on the sofa, scrolling through a short video.
After scrolling through several tens of videos, the video of his own handiwork had disappeared.
The popularity of that video had finally died down completely.
Qin Fan was feeling a little happy, but also a little melancholy.
The reason for his happiness was naturally because the video had been taken offline, and he no longer had to be admired by so many people.
And the reason for his melancholy was because his "name" was out there. Although the video was gone, but if he walked openly on the streets, he would still be recognized at a glance.
If he wanted to go out, he could only wear a hat, sunglasses or something like that, to cover his face.
The feeling of having to hide his head and show his tail, was really not a good feeling.
But, from the current situation, there was no other way around it.
Qin Fan was feeling a little frustrated and he continued to scroll through the short videos, wanting to see the beautiful women wriggling about on the Dou Qi channel, to soothe his mood.
But after scrolling through the videos for quite a while, he did not see many beautiful women, but was instead pushed to a video of the "Battle between the Fire Country and the Gaoli Country's top chess players".
The chess players on both sides were all eighteen years old, and they were all geniuses in the game, unrivaled in their respective countries.
The only difference was that the chess player on the Fire Country's side was a youth, and the chess player on the Gaoli Country's side was a young girl.
The short video had pictures of the two chess players.
When Qin Fan saw the young girl chess player from the Gaoli Country, his eyes immediately lit up, and a feeling of excitement rose within him.
But, that feeling did not last long before it was overshadowed by surprise.
Because, the picture of the young chess player on the Fire Country's side had suddenly popped up.
The face of the young chess player, was just too familiar.
Qin Fan's mouth could not help but curl up into a faint smile.
"Mister Qin, someone is looking for you outside."
The butler suddenly came into the main hall to announce.
Qin Fan turned his attention away from the video and asked: "Did the person say his name?"
"He said his name is Jing Lu." The butler replied.
Qin Fan's face lit up with joy. "Invite him in quickly."
The butler nodded and left the main hall, and came back a moment later. Beside him, a bespectacled youth.
"Master!"
Jing Lu was overjoyed when he saw Qin Fan. He walked up to Qin Fan and called out excitedly.
Qin Fan smiled, "How did you know I was here?"
The moment he asked this question, Qin Fan regretted it.
Jing Lu said with a strange expression on his face.
"I saw some news about Master on the Internet …"
The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat awkward.
Qin Fan's face twitched as he silently scolded himself for asking such a question out of the blue.
Because of the craftsmanship video, Qin Fan's residence was exposed.
Otherwise, there wouldn't have been so many internet celebrities checking in outside the mansion.
Jing Lu naturally found out his address from the internet, so he came to look for him.
To a certain extent, Qin Fan was already a 'celebrity' that everyone in the world knew.
Perhaps, it wouldn't be long before his disciples, who were scattered all over the world, learned of his address and came to greet him one after another.
Qin Fan thought to himself. His heart was both happy and bitter.
The housekeeper went to make two cups of tea and then left the hall.
Qin Fan and Jing Lu sat down. The latter was somewhat absent-minded.
"You didn't just come to see me, right?" Qin Fan saw through Jing Lu's thoughts and said faintly after taking a sip of tea.
"I really can't hide anything from Master." Jing Lu scratched his head and said,
"I will have a duel with a chess player from Gaoli in a few days. This chess player is very good. I have no confidence at all. After I accidentally got the news from Master, I wanted to come and see Master and ask for advice."
"Is this match very important?" Qin Fan asked.
"Of course." Jing Lu nodded solemnly, "The victory or defeat of the chess game is related to the honor of the Guo family. If I lose, my personal honor is small, but it will damage the prestige of the Guo family."
Qin Fan nodded and asked, "You should have information about the match with the young girl, right?"
Without knowing the other party, Qin Fan naturally wouldn't make any guarantees.
"Of course I do." Jing Lu turned on the laptop he carried with him and clicked on the video of the young girl's match.
As the saying goes, know thyself and know thy enemy to win a hundred battles. If Jing Lu wanted to play with others, he naturally had to understand his opponent.
In the laptop, there were at least a few hundred videos of the young girl's match.
Qin Fan fast-forwarded and watched less than ten games of chess. He already had a deep understanding of this young female chess player's way of playing chess.
He was very sure that if he were to face this young girl, his chances of winning were close to 100%.
"Master, are you not going to watch?" Jing Lu asked.
"No need." Qin Fan shook his head.
Jing Lu was delighted, "It seems that Master has already figured out the young girl's style. Then what do you think my chances of winning are?"
"Have you made any progress in the past few years after you left the mountain?" Qin Fan didn't answer but asked instead.
Jing Lu was slightly embarrassed, "I've made some progress, but not much."
"I'm afraid you will lose more than you win this game." Qin Fan said.
He was the one who taught Jing Lu how to play chess, so he naturally understood Jing Lu's style.
After hearing Jing Lu's answer, he immediately made a judgment.
Moreover, this judgment could be considered very tactful.
If Qin Fan were to put it bluntly, it would be that Jing Lu had a 90% chance of winning against the Korean girl.
Jing Lu only had a 10% chance of winning.
Hearing Qin Fan's words, Jing Lu was disheartened.
In fact, he had a rough idea in his heart.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have hurriedly come to Qin Fan for help.
"Master, then do you have a countermeasure?" Jing Lu asked for advice.
"Yes, but the situation during a match is too big. You won't be able to grasp it in a short time. However, I will do my best to teach you. Learn as much as you can." Qin Fan said.
"Thank you, Master." Jing Lu was slightly disappointed but he still thanked him solemnly.
Qin Fan patted him on the shoulder, "Don't be discouraged. In chess, other than talent, you also need to rely on accumulation. You have enough talent. The rest is a matter of accumulation. "
"If I'm not wrong, that young girl must have been in contact with chess since she was sensible. She must have played for more than ten years."
"And you, taking everything into account, have only been in contact with chess for less than five years. To have achieved this much, you should be proud of yourself. Even if you lose, it will be a glorious loss."
Qin Fan consoled him sincerely.
From what he saw, even if Jing Lu lost, it wouldn't be a big deal.
The so-called damage to the Guo Family's honour was too severe.
If the Korean girl won against Jing Lu, would that mean she had suppressed all the Yan Country's chess players?
Where would that put Qin Fan?
In Qin Fan's heart, he had already started to plan his next move after Jing Lu lost.
After calculating for a while, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up into an excited arc.
