Callum was not polite to Bowen. He went to pour everyone a glass of warm water, washed the fruits, and brought out some snacks.
He glanced at the chess pieces on the chessboard and said with a smile, “Uncle, you don’t want to eat and sleep well on purpose. This chess game is all about how good you are at chess. I think that by tomorrow, you won’t be able to move the chess piece you’re holding.”
Haha, Bowen’s chess skills were terrible enough.
Bowen’s face looked ugly, and he stared at Callum.
Bowen would not enjoy Callum making fun of him, no matter how bad his chess skills were. He was an elder, so he still needed shame.
Callum chuckled, touched his nose, and turned to look at Madisyn once more in the hopes that she would assist him in teaching Bowen a lesson so that Bowen wouldn’t stare him into a hornet’s nest.
Obviously, Bowen’s chess skills were terrible, but he still couldn’t let people tell the truth.
After Madisyn received Callum’s look of help, she said to Bowen, “Husband, put the chess away. I’ll play chess with you another day when I’m free.”
Bowen said, “Wife, I don’t want to play chess with you anymore. Callum should play with me instead. I’ll spend a day playing chess with him. Callum, don’t go anywhere this weekend. Come back here and spend a day playing chess with me. If you don’t want to play chess with me, every time I see you, I will miss you. I will always miss you. I’m feeling sick.”
Callum quickly begged for mercy: “Uncle, Your chess skills are excellent; you are a chess master, and you are the best chess player in the world. I’m a mean talker; I talk too much, and I know I’m wrong.
You will lose to me in less than three minutes if I play chess with you.
In that case, playing chess with me would be pointless, so let Auntie play with you. Auntie is a master chess player. You and Auntie find playing chess difficult. You will purposefully lose to us if we, the nephews, ask to play chess with you. There will be no challenge, and the game of chess will be over in a flash. Uncle, after that, you will decide it is not enjoyable, and you will let us go.”
