Oh no...
Upon hearing this, Gu Shiyan's heart sank. How could this go on?
With a loud cry, she knelt before Elder Du, tears streaming down her face as she sobbed, "Elder Du, you're bullying me... I'm so young, and I don't understand chess at all. How can I be your master?"
"How about you become my master?"
"Master, your disciple kowtows to you." She took the initiative, bowing her head to Elder Du three times.
Making Elder Du her master was absolutely out of the question. However, Elder Du could indeed become her master.
Elder Du froze in place. He had intended to recognize a master, so why had an extra disciple suddenly appeared out of nowhere, especially one so charming and lively?
