Chapter 1656: Chapter 1655: The Outcome Is Decided
Shang Shi nodded, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "I really couldn’t hold back."
He didn’t mean to neglect his duties; their match was just too brilliant!
Yan Zhufei nodded in understanding, "I see. How long have they been playing?"
"From the afternoon until now."
"...That’s impressive!" Yan Zhufei finally grasped the meaning behind Mo Jun’s words.
Hao Yansen was indeed enjoying himself.
After watching for a while, Yan Zhufei left to discuss something with Mo Jun.
As for Hao Yansen, it seemed he wouldn’t be finished anytime soon.
But she and Mo Jun waited in the room, waiting and waiting until the dead of the night, and Hao Yansen still hadn’t returned.
At that time, Hao Yansen was still playing chess.
After another drawn game, Hao Yansen said deeply, "Let’s rest for an hour!"
"What, can’t hold on anymore?" Jiang Huang asked mockingly.
"I think you’re about the same," Hao Yansen replied, then rubbed his temples and closed his eyes to rest.
Jiang Huang also leaned on the sofa, closing his eyes, lost in thought.
Maybe they were sleeping, maybe they were thinking, or maybe they were just zoning out...
An hour later, both of them were instantly re-energized and started a new game.
...
Dawn gradually broke.
Hao Yansen and Jiang Huang were still playing chess. Mo Jun and the others came over and admired their endurance upon seeing them still engaged in the game.
However, they didn’t say anything, quietly observing from the side.
If only Jiang Huang would not stop until he defeated Hao Yansen, that would be great.
That way, he wouldn’t rush to leave, and they would have more time...
But when the sun rose into the sky, Jiang Huang, with great self-control, ended the long match, saying, "Let’s stop here; it’s time to go."
Yan Zhufei sighed, "Ah, I thought you would keep playing until the end of time."
Jiang Huang looked at Hao Yansen proudly, "You are indeed a very admirable opponent. I also want to settle the score with you, but not just on the chessboard."
In reality, he also wanted to determine the winner, so he knew what was more important.
Hao Yansen, leaning casually on the sofa, said indifferently, "But the result is already decided."
Jiang Huang raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean?"
"You’ve lost," Hao Yansen made a move and directly cut off Jiang Huang’s escape route.
Jiang Huang was stunned by the move he made.
He hadn’t expected that Hao Yansen would decide the outcome in a single move!
But after playing day and night, he hadn’t managed to win.
"Have you been letting me win on purpose?" Jiang Huang suddenly understood everything and asked coldly.
To him, it was an absolute humiliation!
He thought they were evenly matched, but it turned out Hao Yansen was just letting him have the upper hand. How could he accept that?
Hao Yansen shook his head, "I wasn’t letting you win. You are indeed very strong. Initially, I couldn’t defeat you. Later on, I noticed many flaws in your play."
"Ha, so you think I can’t analyze too?" Jiang Huang sneered, implying he was also watching for Hao Yansen’s weaknesses.
He couldn’t believe that only Hao Yansen could see the weaknesses while he couldn’t.
"But your thoughts are your own, while my thoughts are those of many," Hao Yansen replied.
"What do you mean?" Jiang Huang couldn’t understand.
Hao Yansen smirked, "You’ve always been playing chess against yourself, haven’t you?"
"..."
"You are a genius, and even playing against yourself, you have achieved such a high level, which is very admirable. I’m different. Perhaps I’m not as talented, but I have been playing against many people since I was young.
