No Way Out

"Come on!"

Yi Feng sat down and said.

Huang Wujing and Meng Lixian also gathered around.

"Just one game!"

After setting up the chessboard, Yin Shengfu glanced at Yi Feng and added.

These words.

Made Yi Feng furious.

However, he didn't say anything, but instead placed the chess pieces on the board.

Let the strength speak for itself!

Soon.

Impatience appeared on Yin Shengfu's face.

Because he realized that Yi Feng didn't know how to play chess at all, and some of his moves were completely random.

This made his expression increasingly unpleasant.

In his opinion, playing chess with Yi Feng was simply a waste of his time. He would rather play and deduce the game himself.

If it weren't for the sake of Huang Wujing and Meng Lixian's face, he probably would have packed up and left a long time ago.

On the side.

Huang Wujing and Meng Lixian also noticed the issue.

Although they weren't chess experts, they still understood a little.

At this moment, they also realized that Yi Feng was a complete novice at chess, while Yin Shengfu was much more skilled in both strategy and positioning.

Upon noticing this scene, it immediately made the two of them nervous.

Involuntarily, Huang Wujing subtly moved closer to Yin Shengfu and transmitted a silent message, "Old man, let's focus on enjoyment. You must go easy on my friend here. He's just here to entertain you, don't embarrass him too much."

"Hmph!"

However, in response to Huang Wujing's reminder, Yin Shengfu only coldly snorted.

This made Huang Wujing's expression even more gloomy, secretly resenting Yin Shengfu for his lack of understanding and empathy.

But he also knew Yin Shengfu's temperament.

Asking him to take it easy or do anything in the game was even more difficult than asking for his life.

So, they could only hope that Yi Feng could hold on a little longer against Yin Shengfu, so as not to lose too embarrassingly and cause an awkward situation.

However.

What they didn't expect was that Yin Shengfu not only had no intention of going easy, but also became increasingly impatient with playing chess with Yi Feng.

"At most, you can surrender in half a joss stick's time, or else I don't have so much time to waste on you," Yin Shengfu said expressionlessly.

"No need for that long."

"Right away."

Yi Feng said in the same expressionless manner, and as he finished speaking, he placed his chess piece on the board.

After the move.

Yi Feng stood up and left the chessboard, returning to his seat at the table.

"A little self-awareness."

Yin Shengfu said expressionlessly.

He also didn't expect Yi Feng to surrender so readily, so he withdrew his gaze from the chessboard.

Seeing this, Huang Wujing and Meng Lixian felt embarrassed. Although they knew Yi Feng would lose, they didn't expect him to lose so quickly.

So, the two of them quickly sat back next to Yi Feng, smiling and saying, "Brother, it's okay, losing is just losing, it's just a game, nothing to worry about."

"That's right."

Meng Lixian also quickly smiled and said, "Yin Lao's chess skills are indeed remarkable. There's no opponent in the entire city, so it's normal to lose to him."

"Come, let's continue drinking."

Huang Wujing and Meng Lixian simultaneously raised their glasses to Yi Feng, clearly wanting to help him dissolve the awkward atmosphere caused by his loss.

"Drinking is not a problem."

Yi Feng lifted his glass and lightly clinked it with theirs. Then, with a faint smile on his lips, he leisurely said, "But who said I lost?"

Upon hearing this, Huang Wujing and Meng Lixian's faces froze.

After regaining their composure, they quickly shifted their gaze back to the chessboard.

Meanwhile, Yin Shengfu, who had an expressionless face, shook his head and chuckled, not taking it seriously. He was preparing to put away the chessboard.

But suddenly, he noticed something.

His expressionless face underwent a sudden change.

"What?"

"No way, how is this possible?"

He exclaimed in disbelief and shock, his body trembling violently. His bloodshot eyes stared fixedly at the chess pieces on the board.

Then, he hurriedly picked up a piece and tried to continue the previous game.

However.

No matter how he placed his piece, he couldn't make a move. Because no matter what, he was trapped in a dead end.

"How could this be? How could this happen?"
