“Let’s meet next weekend. Have him to come and play chess with me. Not many youngsters know how to play nowadays!”
Shen Yue took a towel from the waiter and wiped his face before grabbing his walking stick and standing up slowly. Then, he started ambling outside. “Let’s go home. This rain isn’t stopping anytime soon.”
Mu Yuchen helped Xi Xiaye to get up and they followed right behind the elderly man.
