Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 1215: Chapter 1214: Awesome, Sis!

Gu Tong glanced at her and said, "I think you can think a little more shallowly."

"..." Shallow...

We’re already guessing riddles, how much more shallow can we get?

Xia Xi’s mouth twitched twice and said, "Why don’t you give it a try..."

Cloth not hard, scold no mouth, sky blows, head crucial, two great!

Gu Tong didn’t speak immediately, but thought for a bit, then said in an even tone, "If we’re going by riddles, the second character is ’screen’, the fifth character is ’break’, and the eighth character is ’cannon’!"

"..." Do you really need to think in terms of riddles? Xia Xi wanted to cry but had no tears, saying, "Can you first tell me what ’cloth not hard’ means?"

Gu Tong answered without hesitation, "Soft!"

Cloth not hard??? Equals soft???

Why...

Because it’s cloth not hard!!!

Xia Xi’s eyes widened, saying, "Alright, alright, the first is ’soft’, so what about ’scold no mouth’..."

Gu Tong replied, "Horse!"

’Scold no mouth’, take away two mouths from the word ’scold’, naturally it’s ’horse’.

Come to think of it, doesn’t seem wrong...

Xia Xi got interested and asked again, "What about ’sky blows’?"

Gu Tong curled her lips and said, "Wind!"

’Sky blows’ equals ’wind’, the sky can only blow wind!

It flows logically, no problems ha...

Without waiting for Xia Xi to ask more, Gu Tong continued, "Two great should be the character ’head’! I’m now just puzzled about what ’head crucial’ means!"

Everything else can be considered through riddles or character meanings, but ’head crucial’ doesn’t work.

Xia Xi thought about it, uncertainly said, "Head-on? The character ’on’?"

Uh...

Weren’t we supposed to be shallow?

The meanings, riddles, are there, just missing one piece!

The character ’on’?

If we piece it together this way it is!

"Soft screen wind horse breaks head-on cannon! This is!!!" Xia Xi almost instantly widened her eyes, moving her head to face Gu Tong’s position, gasping, "What???"

What is this???

Gu Tong’s mouth twitched twice without any restraint, raising her hand to tap on her head!

Damn! Not knowing but gasping, are you trying to scare someone!

Xia Xi wanted to cry but had no tears, covering her head, saying, "Damn! People don’t know, why are you hitting me, hmm hmm hmm... Besides, ’soft screen wind horse breaks head-on cannon’ sounds very unreliable!"

A sentence with no connection to village or shop, like it was pieced together randomly.

Gu Tong simply ignored her and fell into deep thought.

Because she doesn’t think this sentence is pieced together randomly, but rather has deeper meaning.

Xia Xi pouted, saying, "What the heck is ’head-on cannon’, a chess game with ’head-on cannon’..."

She got stuck halfway through her sentence, her gaze fell on Gu Tong.

At the same time, they both said in unison, "Chess game!"

Exactly, it’s the chess game!

The eerie junction in the tomb, the boundary line, quite like a chessboard.

’Soft screen wind horse breaks head-on cannon’ should indeed be a chess game.

Gu Tong suddenly thought of something and said, "’Soft screen wind horse breaks head-on cannon’, commonly known as screen horse breaks head-on cannon, is a chess manual from the Anti-Meihua Diagram."

Oh wow, impressive, my dear sister!

You’re so talented, even knowing about chess games.

Xia Xi asked, "What is the Anti-Meihua Diagram?"

Implying her little darling doesn’t understand chess games, so counting on you dear, go for it go for it, love you~

Gu Tong recalled and said in an even tone, "It’s an ancient chess manual, originally called the Chess Plum Blossom Heart Method Manual, nowadays, only very few hand copies remain in the world!"
