> Resumos de Go Into Your Heart
The intense Go match between Yao Ke and Sheng Jingchu concluded with Sheng Jingchu securing a decisive 6-0 victory in their highly anticipated ten-game series. Onlookers and commentators had noted earlier that Yao Ke's pre-match boast of winning six consecutive games in the series was now impossible, as Sheng Jingchu had already secured five victories.
They commented that a win for Yao Ke in this particular, final match would still have been significant, as it would have marked Sheng Jingchu's first loss in ten years, a feat he had never achieved. However, Sheng Jingchu won this game too, by a quarter stone. Commentators analyzed the complex moves, from Yao Ke's corner play to Sheng Jingchu's clever "one-way capture" tactics which ultimately put Yao Ke in a difficult position.
Despite Yao Ke's attempts to recover and salvage earlier losses, Sheng Jingchu's strategic moves proved superior. The final score was announced: Sheng Jingchu won by a quarter stone. Yao Ke, in disbelief, questioned if he only lost by half a point. As reporters swarmed him, relentlessly asking about his mistakes, Yao Ke, overwhelmed by the pressure and the crushing 0-6 defeat in the series, fainted.
Sheng Jingchu immediately intervened, shielding his fellow disciple from the cameras and telling the reporters to stop filming. Yao Ke was rushed to the hospital, where his brother, Yao Pu, was by his side. Sheng Jingchu visited Yao Ke, reassuring him that he was one of his most respected opponents and that he shouldn't be overly fixated on winning and losing. However, Yao Ke did not see it this way, viewing Sheng Jingchu as his greatest enemy.
Back home, Yao Ke looked at the online news in disbelief, filled with mockery and insults over his crushing 0-6 defeat in the series after confidently boasting six consecutive wins, making his mental pressure immense. Sheng Jingchu later reflected that his own previous obsession was the most troubling, and that Yao Ke was now experiencing this same distress due to his excessive obsession.
Sheng Jingchu acknowledged that with Cheng Liao by his side, he had discovered "more precious things than winning." He felt he was finally completing the "homework" his master had assigned him. Later, Sheng Jingchu gently massaged Cheng Liao, thanking her for her dedicated care of her father during his recovery. Xiao Yan, a colleague of Cheng Liao, handed her a discount card for a new steak restaurant owned by her boyfriend.
The card had a generous 20,000 yuan credit, which Xiao Yan described as a taste "only fit for the heavens." She urged Cheng Liao to use it to treat her father to nutritious meals, as his leg was injured, but playfully warned Cheng Liao not to eat any of it herself. Cheng Liao teasingly asked Sheng Jingchu if he was jealous, to which he replied no, and instead, showed her information about Pinecone Video's upcoming cooking competition.
The competition, themed "Experts Within Cities," aimed to promote traditional Chinese cuisine and discover hidden culinary talents through various rounds like auditions and eliminations, all supported by live broadcasting. Cheng Liao seemed intrigued, but she initially dismissed the idea of participating, believing her father and sister would not approve of her pursuing cooking as a career.
Jiang Yuda called Cheng's father to ensure Cheng Yi was not present before visiting him at the hospital, carrying a bag of Cheng's father's favorite Red Braised Pork Trotters from an old shop. Cheng's father reassured Jiang Yuda not to take Cheng Yi's harsh words to heart, saying, "She runs her mouth, but she has a kind heart." He also entrusted Jiang Yuda with looking after the Go club until his return, telling him he could visit anytime.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Yi and Xu Chi arrived. Jiang Yuda quickly hid behind a curtain. To prevent Cheng Yi from opening the window and discovering Jiang Yuda, Cheng's father feigned discomfort, first complaining about a pain in his leg, then claiming to feel hot despite having just said he was cold. Cheng Yi and Xu Chi tried to open the window, but Cheng's father managed to divert them with various excuses.
Once Cheng Yi and Xu Chi left the room, Jiang Yuda quickly slipped out. Jiang Yuda later called Cheng Yi, sincerely apologizing again for the accident, but Cheng Yi, still shaken by her father's injury, struggled to accept his apology, emphasizing her father's importance to them. Back home, Yao Pu was worried as his brother, Yao Ke, had secluded himself in his room for two days.
When Yao Ke finally emerged, Yao Pu noticed his hair had turned white from stress, and Yao Ke was trying on wigs. Yao Ke confessed to Yao Pu that he had realized two things: he would never defeat Sheng Jingchu in Go, always being just short of success, unable to cross that threshold. Since he couldn't win, his second realization was that he could destroy Sheng Jingchu.
Yao Ke asked Yao Pu to contact the family of Yang Xiao Yu, the driver involved in the hit-and-run, hoping to unite with them against Sheng Jingchu. Yao Pu questioned if this was "wicked," but Yao Ke justified his actions, stating that Sheng Jingchu had completely ruined him and humiliated him, while Yang Xiao Yu "deserved his punishment," questioning why "he" (Yao Ke) should suffer such a plight. Yao Pu, agreeing that Sheng Jingchu was "ruthless," promised to support him.
Subsequently, Yao Pu met with Yang Xiao Yu's family and their lawyer. The lawyer, claiming to represent Sheng Jingchu, delivered a legal letter stating Sheng Jingchu was suing Yang Xiao Yu. Yang Xiao Yu's family, already upset that Yang Xiao Yu was expelled from school because Sheng Jingchu helped the police with the footage, were furious at the news, feeling Sheng Jingchu was relentlessly pursuing them. Cheng Liao, accompanied by Sheng Jingchu, visited her father, bringing him a homemade meal.
Cheng's father, delighted by his daughter's cooking, praised her efforts. Sheng Jingchu also enjoyed the meal and complimented Cheng's father, noting his recovery and the "excellent knife work" Cheng's father used to peel fruit for him.
Cheng's father, despite his pleasure, encouraged Cheng Liao to spend more time with Sheng Jingchu and focus on her career at Pinecone Video, reiterating his old advice for her to avoid the kitchen and its "oil and smoke," expressing a desire for her to have a "clean" path. Sheng Jingchu, however, had already secretly filled out the application form for the Pinecone Video cooking competition for Cheng Liao.
He encouraged her to pursue her passion, acknowledging her deep love for cooking and her "keen sense of smell" as an innate "talent that exceeds normal people," even surpassing his own hard-earned Go talent. He assured her he would support her decision whether she chose to participate or not, promising, "I will always be with you." Master Xie and Master Jiang visited Yao Ke.
Yao Ke apologized for causing them worry, admitting he had been overly immersed in Go, pushed too hard, and lacked rest, calling his 0-6 defeat in the series "unacceptable." Master Xie acknowledged that Yao Ke could have won at least two of the games, but his intense desire to win had affected his mentality. He reminded Yao Ke that "the person chasing behind must definitely suffer more and work harder than the person in front."
Master Jiang advised Yao Ke not to "be too obsessed" and to accept different levels of talent in Go, contrasting those who "seek victories" with those who "appreciate it as a form of art." He warned that constant obsession with being number one could lead to problems, using historical examples of Go players. These words made Yao Ke feel even worse, but on the surface, he appeared humble. Master Xie interjected, finding Master Jiang's directness too harsh.
Master Jiang, however, insisted that Yao Ke should not focus on beating Sheng Jingchu but rather on improving his own game and understanding himself. Finally, Master Xie cut off the discussion about Go, declaring that their gathering was purely for drinking with their disciple. Yao Ke then raised a toast to his masters.
