Stepmother: I Am Asked To Give A Kidney To My Half-Brother

Chapter 316 - Admit Defeat



Chapter 316: Admit Defeat

After the meal, chess replaced the food on the table. The old leader said with an itch in his heart, “It has been a long time since we played this together, right? Since you are here, do you want to play with me? Old Tang, you won’t find an excuse to reject my small request, right?”

Since things had already come to this point, how could Tang Mingkun refuse? He sighed helplessly and teased, “Are you starting again? I’m not good at this kind of thing. Please show mercy later. Don’t let me lose too badly. After all, my godson is still here.”

“Hahahaha, we’ve been friends for so many years. Do you think I’ll embarrass you? Come, come, let’s start! You hold the white chess piece, I’ll let you go first.”

Even though the old leader had gone easy on him from the beginning, Tang Mingkun was simply a lousy chess basket compared to him! Even if he went all out, he might not win. After playing a few rounds, the former’s interest became higher and higher. On the contrary, this made Tang Mingkun feel more and more uncomfortable!

He looked pained.

Seeing that the old leader’s addiction to chess was getting stronger and stronger, he finally couldn’t take it anymore when the fifth round ended. He hurriedly waved his hand and said, “Enough, enough! If this continues, I’ll be traumatized by you today. No one will play this with you in the future.”

The old leader could not help but say in disappointment, “Why don’t I go easy on you again? How long has it been since we last played chess? Recently, everyone else has been busy with something, and only you came to look for me. At this point, on account of our many years of friendship, are you shameless enough to give up halfway?”

Seeing that he was unwilling to give up, Tang Mingkun did not show any signs of a headache. He chuckled and said, “That’s why I brought my godson here. He used to play for a while. Although I can’t defeat you, he might have a way. He can try.”

After saying this, the two of them looked at Lu Ming.

The old leader asked with interest, “You know this too? Little Lu, are you interested in playing with an old man like me? How about you play white chess too?”

“No problem, but I think it’s better to respect the elderly and love the young, so you should take the white stones. I’m afraid you won’t accept the result when the game is over.”

Lu Ming raised his eyebrows as he spoke. He had been watching from the side for a long while and understood the other party’s chess style a little. He was decisive in killing. He would attack when he needed to attack and abandon when he needed to abandon. What was important was his speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness. At the same time, he had a corresponding countermeasure in his mind.

The old leader was not angry when he heard this. Instead, he laughed and said, “It’s a good thing for young people to be a little arrogant! However, I think you should have heard about my level from Old Tang. Even those professional Go players might not be able to defeat me. Do you think… you can do those things that most people haven’t done?”

“Of course.”

“Hahahaha! Since you’ve already said it, how can I refuse? Don’t cry to your godfather later.”

Immediately after, Lu Ming sat down at his godfather’s seat. When the two of them brushed past each other, a familiar voice sounded in his ears. “It doesn’t matter if you win or not. As long as you’re not careless, just be steady!”

He nodded slightly. After arranging the black chess pieces, he began his journey!

When he placed the chess pieces on e4 and c5, the old leader said with a smile in his eyes, “It seems that you’ve memorized a lot of chess records. The opening is the Sicilian defense. So what? Do you want me to lose completely so that you can have the greatest chance of winning? You’re quite ambitious. Young people are young people after all!”

Lu Ming smiled at his words.

Immediately after, the old leader moved his white chess piece. He had already thought of how to defeat Lu Ming. Just as he thought that the other party would follow the conventional chess strategy, Lu Ming suddenly took a step forward. The old leader raised his eyebrows and asked, “What kind of chess game are you playing?”

Isn’t this a piece of fat meat that came to my door?

He did not know what the other party was thinking, but the smile on his lips revealed the fact that he was in a good mood. Every step was out of his control. He did not know if it was intentional or not. However, since the piece was already here, he would capture it first!

As time passed, Tang Mingkun’s brows gradually furrowed.?Why am I getting more and more confused about what’s going on??There were clearly a few chances to turn the situation around, but Lu Ming acted as if he didn’t see it and continued moving forward. As a result, he was being suppressed by the old leader.

When he couldn’t help but wanted to give some pointers, the old leader clicked his tongue and thought to himself,?This is probably the most chaotic chess game I’ve ever played, right? The chess records in my mind are useless.?He felt that the young man in front of him was just a mess.

Otherwise, why would he turn a good game of chess into such a state??He’s just like Old Tang, his standards are not good! The harsh words he said previously might just be because he did not want to lose face in front of his godfather, right? It’s better to pay attention and not affect the other party’s confidence.

Hence, he said, “I only need to move my position three more times and you’ll lose. Aren’t you going to concede?”

“I’m about to win. Why should I admit defeat?”

As soon as he said this, the old leader and Tang Mingkun were stunned on the spot.?Is Lu Ming joking? This situation is clearly disadvantageous to him, so how could there be a victory? Is there something wrong with his brain because of this strong sense of disparity? Speaking of which, there are many geniuses whose psychological defense is quite weak. Perhaps Lu Ming is one of them?

Thinking of this, the old leader comforted him. “Victory and defeat are common in war. Just be calm. Now that you have nowhere to go, and I only need to take three steps forward, your king will be defeated by me. How can there be a chance of survival? I know you want to win with this kind of mess, but it’s precisely because of this that you lost so badly…”

“Isn’t it a little early for you to say that?”

In the next second, Lu Ming smiled and moved the soldier forward. Seeing that he was not listening, the old leader did not say anything else. Then he placed the horse beside the elephant according to the steps in his mind. Then without thinking, Lu Ming moved his king’s position towards the chariot. “Checkmate (General)!”

‘You lost, sir.’

The sudden turn of events caught Tang Mingkun and the old leader off guard! They suddenly widened their eyes. When did an elephant appear there?! Why didn’t they notice it at all? At this moment, the two of them finally realized that what they had thought was random was actually traceable!
