Chapter Fifty-Seven Past Events

  Between the two, Zhan Kuang chose the latter. Although he didn't deliberately investigate anything, when he saw his son talking about things between him and Xiao Yufeng, Zhan Kuang also knew that the feelings between his son and daughter-in-law were extremely good, and may have even reached the point of being inseparable in life and death.

  If Xiao Yufeng knew about her son's death, she might also have a strong desire to die. Even if the child in her womb would make her survive, but at that time, Xiao Yufeng would be heartbroken and her grandson, having a mother who is emotionally dead, even with the best external living conditions, it would be difficult for him to grow up healthily.

  But if this matter is concealed, it's different. Xiao Yufeng will think that her son has betrayed her. Although she will be heartbroken, she won't die of a broken heart. Instead, she can devote all her energy to the child.

  As for saying that Xiao Yufeng will remarry, and even let her own grandson change to another surname, Zhan Kuangren thinks that Xiao Yufeng won't be that kind of person. So in the end, Xiao Yufeng thought that she was abandoned, but even so, she still wanted to give birth to the child in her belly.

  Even more so, her father was hospitalized, and at that time, Zhan Kuangren had been paying attention to this matter. When he learned that his daughter-in-law's father was critically ill, he immediately arranged for more than a dozen top doctors in Beijing to go to the Bozhou People's Hospital for an expert consultation.

  Xiao Yufeng's father, coincidentally, became the first patient to receive free treatment from the expert, and Xiao Yufeng's father eventually escaped danger. After that, there were always people sent by Zhang Kun to keep an eye on Xiao Yufeng at all times.

  Whenever Xiao Yufeng encountered difficulties in life, Zhan Kuangren would immediately create some conditions to help Xiao Yufeng "luckily" get through the difficult times.

  Among them, the couple who were kind to Xiao Yufeng were Xian Yu's husband's younger brother and sister-in-law. After so many years, Xian Kuangren's health has not been good due to his son's passing away. Now, he is extremely weak and frail, and can only rely on various nutrient solutions to sustain his life.

  The doctor has also made some assertions that Zhang Kuangren is already close to burning out, and may leave at any time within three months to half a year. Zhang Yu can't help but hope that his father can recognize his grandson before he dies, so as not to regret it for the rest of his life.

  Nowadays, the Zhang family is like the sunset that is about to set behind the western hills, without any vitality. Zhang Feng died young, and although Zhang Yu has some ability, she is after all a woman. And as for Zhang Yu's husband, who married into the Zhang family, while he is loving and respectful enough towards his wife, his own abilities and character are somewhat weak.

  The collateral relatives of the Zhan family, the two younger brothers and one younger sister of Zhan Kuangren's descendants, none of them have any real skills, they only know how to fight internally, mutually scheming against each other, competing for the resources of the Zhan family, wanting to grab the last bit of wealth before Zhan Kuangren's death.

  So now the Zhang family is on the verge of collapse, and Zhang Yu never thought that bringing Zhang Fei back would be able to turn the tide and change the situation of the Zhang family. However, at least the Zhang family still has some industries and resources, before his father's death, it should be handed over to Zhang Fei, even if he squanders them, it should be done by Zhang Fei, not those collateral sons.

  But the madman heard Zhan Yu's words, and his eyes also flashed a hint of hope. For so many years, he had only been able to watch some videos and photos of his grandson, but had not yet seen him in person.

  He is most clear about his own body, and he may leave at any time. Being able to see his grandson with his own eyes before he dies is also a comfort.

  Thinking of this, Zhan Kuangren finally nodded his head, while Zhan Yu said: "Alright, I will bring him to the capital as soon as possible!"

  But Zhan Fei, in his mind, had an extra chessboard, and it took him four or five hours to digest and absorb it, until 8 or 9 o'clock in the evening, before he finally came back to himself. He also felt that he was like he had just woken up from a very long and deep dream.

  In the dream, I became a Go player, and in front of me was an old man with a fairy-like demeanor. The old man told me that only by beating him could I leave this dream state. As for myself, I knew nothing about Go, but every time we finished a game, the old man would explain it to me.

  At first, Zhang Fei was completely at a disadvantage, but after 1,000 rounds, Zhang Fei finally managed to fight the old man evenly, although still slightly on the defensive without any chance of winning. After 10,000 rounds, Zhang Fei finally managed to fight the old man to a draw.

  However, the old man's chess path seems to have reached a nearly perfect level, and it can be said that there is no room for improvement. Even if Zhan Fei could fight with his opponent on an equal footing, it would only end in a draw. He was unable to win even half a move until after 100,000 games, when Zhan Fei finally found some minor flaws in the old man's unbeatable chess strategy.

  It wasn't until then that Zhan Fei realized the old man's chess skills were truly profound. The old man's weaknesses were also Zhan Fei's own weaknesses, and when Zhan Fei tried to take advantage of them, he would instead reveal even greater flaws in himself. So after 100,000 moves, Zhan Fei began to lose again - this was the difference in their mental state.

  When it exceeded ten thousand moves, Zhan Fei didn't think about winning. What he thought of was just to defend with all his might and fight the old man to a draw. Therefore, at that time, he could keep up with the old man until the chessboard was completely filled, and then they ended in a draw.

  He reached 100,000 moves outside and was not satisfied with a simple draw. He then rushed to attack, revealing an even bigger weakness, and started losing again. This continued until he lost 1 million moves outside, when Zhan finally won a game.

  Then he made the move for the million-yuan game, and it also flashed quickly in front of his eyes. After that, he woke up, and there were only three words left in his mind: "Supreme Chess". A few minutes later, Zhan Fei shook his head, and the dizzy feeling got a little better.

  Unexpectedly, learning a broken chess manual led him to play 10 million games of Go in his dreams, flying freely as if he was not in control. At that time, he seemed to be deeply immersed in the world of Go, constantly absorbing nutrients.

  So throughout the whole process, Zhan Fei didn't feel bored or tired at all. Otherwise, letting someone who has no interest in Go play a million games would be torture.
