Chapter 119<\/p>\n
Hearing this, Cherise felt upset.<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright, let\u2019s not talk about that anymore. It\u2019s all in the past,\u201d the elderly man said, taking a deep breath.<\/p>\n
Then he went on, \u201cMiss, the way you just saved that person was quite skillful.<\/p>\n
\u201cAlso, I noticed after you performed the CPR on him, that you pressed on some spots around his heart. Was that some kind of acupressure technique?\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise nodded in reply.<\/p>\n
The elderly man looked at Cherise with admiration and remarked, \u201cYou\u2019re so young, yet your skills are already very refined.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur country really isn\u2019t short of talented people!\u201d<\/p>\n
He couldn\u2019t help but nod again and gave Cherise a thumbs\u2013up.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, sir, do you understand acupressure? Are you also a doctor? Cherise asked curiously.<\/p>\n
The elderly man nodded and then shook his head, saying, \u201cSort of, but not entirely. I only know a little. It\u2019s not my main focus.<\/p>\n
\u201cHowever, that person I knew was quite skilled in it.\u201d<\/p>\n
After speaking, he sighed again.<\/p>\n
Cherise, for some reason, didn\u2019t want the elder to feel sorrow. Spotting the incomplete chessboard behind him, she suggested, \u201cSir, would you like me to finish our game of chess?\u201d<\/p>\n
The elderly man\u2019s eyes lit up instantly, and he asked, \u201cDo you play chess?<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s great. Let\u2019s play then!\u201d<\/p>\n
And so, Cherise and the elderly man sat across from each other.<\/p>\n
From afar, the scene looked warm and harmonious.<\/p>\n
Cherise glanced at the board as she sat down and said, \u201cYou go first, sir.\u201d<\/p>\n
The elderly man looked at the poised girl in front of him, feeling an unexpected fondness. He said, \u201cMiss, Rayburn Muller. Just call me Rayburn.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow we\u2019re friends.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise chuckled and said, \u201cOkay, Rayburn. My name is Cherise Leach.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rayburn said, \u201cWell, okay, Cherise!\u201d<\/p>\n
my name is<\/p>\n
Rayburn thought, \u2018Cherise is truly impressive. Not only is she beautiful, but she is also humble, polite, and composed.<\/p>\n
\u2018Her clear eyes are pure and honest. She\u2019s unlike some young people nowadays who are eager for quick success without real<\/p>\n
abilities.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe family that raised her must be truly fortunate, as she\u2019s a rare gem among young people.\u2019<\/p>\n
Rayburn and Cherise smiled at the same time.<\/p>\n

Rayburn said, \u201cCherise, have the red pieces, so I\u2019ll start first!\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise nodded.<\/p>\n
Rayburn\u2019s slightly wrinkled hand picked up a chess piece and said, \u201cI\u2019ll make the first move.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise smiled silently and placed a pawn.<\/p>\n
And so, the back\u2013and\u2013forth chess game began, with Rayburn\u2019s eyebrows gradually knitting together.<\/p>\n
After a round, Cherise was relaxed and at ease, while Rayburn clenched his left fist.<\/p>\n
3<\/p>\n
In the next moment, Cherise calmly declared, \u201cCheckmate with the bishop and rook; the knight has crossed the river. Rayburn, if you\u2019ll excuse me, I\u2019m in a commanding position!\u201d<\/p>\n
+5<\/p>\n
0<\/p>\n
Rayburn burst into laughter and said, \u201cWell, I haven\u2019t felt this pleased in a long time. Cherise, my friend, you\u2019re truly a rare<\/p>\n
talent!\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise smiled and said, \u201cRayburn, your chess skills are amazing too! When two experts meet, it\u2019s all about who makes the quick moves!\u201d<\/p>\n
Hearing this, Rayburn laughed heartily, believing Cherise was really something.<\/p>\n
Cherise checked the time and said, \u201cRayburn, it was nice meeting you, but I have to go now. I have some things to take care of.\u201d<\/p>\n
She said this as she was to stand up.<\/p>\n
Seeing this, Rayburn quickly spoke up with a regretful expression, \u201cWait a moment, Cherise! Next time you\u2019re out for your morning exercise, could you come find me here again?\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise looked at the friendly man she just met and explained with a friendly smile, \u201cRayburn, I\u2019m not from around here. This is my first time visiting Hamolica, and I\u2019m heading back to Betrico tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hearing this, Rayburn felt a bit disappointed. The joy on his face from their chess game quickly faded.<\/p>\n
Noticing his reaction, Cherise sweetly suggested, \u201cRayburn, do you have a WhatsApp account? We can connect there and stay in touch whenever we have time.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rayburn\u2019s eyes lit up, and he quickly pulled his phone out of his pocket.<\/p>\n
Then he fetched a pair of reading glasses from his shirt pocket and perched them on his nose.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, Cherise, this is my account,\u201d Rayburn said, with an awkward chuckle.<\/p>\n
Cherise nodded, picked up her phone, and said, \u201cAll set.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rayburn quickly accepted the friend request, smiling happily as if he had received a precious gift.<\/p>\n
