C358 (1/2)

Clearly seeing the dejection in Chu Yin's eyes, An Yue's heart also surged with an enormous uneasiness.

She thought for a bit, then ordered someone to take some dried fruits, snacks and the like. She pinched one piece and placed it next to Chu Yin's mouth.

Chu Yin frowned, and directly brushed her hand off.

The bitterness in He Yue's heart was instantly magnified to the extreme.

She stuffed the dried fruit into her mouth, only feeling waves of bitterness in her mouth.

No matter what she did, could it not compare to Wei Qing's position in Chu Yin's heart?

It was clearly impossible for them to escape, but why was he still unable to let them go?

She took deep breaths to suppress the astringency in her heart.

All three matches of the first round had ended, leaving a total of 24 people, divided into the inner and outer circles, each with 12 people.

Wei Qing and He Yue were also in the same circle. She smiled at He Yue faintly, but that smile was extremely weak.

She could not help but think that with how Chu Yin treated He Yue mercilessly, He Yue would definitely place everything on her shoulders. Once a woman developed jealousy in her heart, especially for a proud woman like He Yue, it was possible that she would cause trouble for herself.

With this thought, she instantly raised her guard and began to take every game seriously.

In order to save time from understanding the game, Wei Qing decided to play this game in front of him along the way. She also had to pay attention to the situation of the game on the next table, which was a bit disinterested.

But from within the chessboard game, Wei Qing finally understood why the four nations' competition of talent was set up to have such a reason.

A true chess player not only wanted to win or lose, they also wanted to have the ability to turn the situation around.

After finishing her ten moves, Wei Qing moved to the next table.

Because she had already paid attention to the situation at the second table ahead of time, Wei Qing was able to quickly react.

It was the same for He Yue. The two of them instantly became the center of attention.

Xiao Qingqian concentrated on Wei Qing with shining eyes and swept his gaze across Chu Yin.

Although Chu Yin's gaze seemed to be fixated on He Yue, as a man, Xiao Qingqian could still tell that Chu Yin's gaze was basically chasing after Wei Qing.

He raised his eyebrows and moved to Chu Yin's side.

”Princess He Yue is truly talented and beautiful. She is more than enough to match Prince Qi.”

Chu Yin squinted at him, ”Prince Chu is joking.”

”Is that so?” Xiao Qingqian's gaze sharpened. ”Could it be that Prince Qi still has this king's wangfei in his heart? That's not good, right? ”

”Prince Chu, you are only slightly luckier than me!”

Xiao Qingqian said softly, ”Do you think this king is luckier than you, that it's that simple?”

Chu Yin raised his eyebrows, and did not reply.

However, his action of raising his eyebrows had already expressed his intentions.

If not for the fact that he had chosen to return to the Southern Kingdom and Xiao Qingqian had not been constantly wandering around Wei Qing, it would have been impossible for him to obtain Wei Qing's heart.

”Prince Qi cannot give up the throne that is above ten thousand people, but this king can give it up for Qing`er!”

Chu Yin's originally solemn face suddenly darkened, he judged and stared at Xiao Qingqian, for a good long while.

”It doesn't matter if you believe me or not. Qing`er just needs to believe me!”

Chu Yin's eyes flashed.

It just so happened that Wei Qing raised his eyes and looked over, and when Xiao Qingqian saw her eyes, he smiled gently.

When Chu Yin saw the light that was being exchanged between the two, he could not help but feel a little disappointed.

Wei Qing pinched one of the chess pieces and when it landed, it instantly turned into a prairie fire, devouring a large portion of Hei Zi.

The person in the outer circle had a look of disbelief on his face. ”You, you actually won?”
