Chapter 622 Another Round
"Actually, it's not very fair. The princess gave up the third son of Miss Lu. It's no surprise that Miss Lu won." Suddenly, someone in the crowd said this.
Lu Xiang looked up and saw a young girl in yellow standing behind Zheng Wenshuang. Her face was thin, and even with makeup on, it looked pale. Her long and thin eyebrows revealed a mean look. Even though she had a beautiful appearance, she could not be called pretty.
As soon as the girl opened her mouth, others followed suit.
Lu Xiang was not annoyed, but just looked at Zheng Wenshuang with a faint smile: "What do you think, Princess?"
Zheng Wenshuang bit her lips tightly, she was extremely angry but she couldn't lose her temper in front of so many people and embarrass herself, she almost suffocated to death.
After being stunned for a moment, Song Zhenzhen smiled and said, "Since Miss Yu said so, why not play another round."
"If you lose, you lose. There's no need to worry too much about it." Zheng Wenshuang smiled, pretending to be indifferent.
Miss Yu refused to agree: "How can that be possible? The princess is obviously an excellent chess player, but she lost so unfairly. Just like Miss Song said, let's play another game, so that Miss Lu will know that she was just lucky just now."
"This..." Zheng Wenshuang looked hesitant.
Someone echoed Miss Yu's words and agreed to play another round.
Lu Xiang took the chess pieces off the board without a care in the world and said nonchalantly, "Princess, how about another game?"
Zheng Wenshuang's chess skills are good, but after playing a game with her, Lu Xiang felt that she was not as good as the rumors said. However, he understood it after thinking about it. It was because she was the daughter of the eldest princess and had the title of Princess Wenshuang.
Perhaps the noble ladies in the capital were indeed not as good as her at chess, but if there were really people who were better at chess than her, they must have been of lower status, so who would dare to win?
Over time, everyone came to believe that Zheng Wenshuang was a great chess player.
"Well... okay." Zheng Wenshuang agreed with an embarrassed look on her face, as if she had no choice.
Lu Xiang handed the black piece to Zheng Wenshuang and said with a smile, "This time, Princess, you can play black."
I let you play first, so don’t make excuses if you lose later.
Zheng Wenshuang looked at the black man in front of her and her face turned slightly blue with anger.
This bitch actually provoked her.
Zheng Wenshuang wanted to say no, but when she thought of her recent defeat, she thought that she could not lose this game no matter what, so she took it and handed the white chess piece to Lu Xiang.
A new round of chess began. Zheng Wenshuang had a serious expression and made every move carefully, while Lu Xiang, who was opposite her, seemed relaxed.
It's not because she has absolute confidence that she can beat Zheng Wenshuang. The chess game changes rapidly, and Zheng Wenshuang is no fool. But Lu Xiang doesn't care about winning or losing, and she doesn't care about losing face after losing like Zheng Wenshuang does.
So Lu Xiang had no pressure and it was easy for him to fight against Zheng Wenshuang.
After a cup of tea, Zheng Wenshuang looked at the chessboard in astonishment. The chess piece in her hand fell with a "click", making a crisp sound on the jade chessboard.
The noble ladies who were watching were also stunned by the scene before them. It was so quiet that even their breathing stopped, and the sound of the chess pieces falling was particularly loud.
Princess Wen Shuang...lost again!
Everyone stared at Lu Xiang as if they had seen a ghost, secretly wondering how this man, who had kept silent, had such high chess skills that he even won two games against Zheng Wenshuang.
She is worthy of being the Eighth Prince’s Consort canonized by the Emperor.
Come to think of it, if one doesn't have any real ability, can he be worthy of the Eighth Prince?
"Princess, thank you for giving me your place." Lu Xiang smiled slightly. Her crescent-shaped eyes were filled with an extremely lively luster, as if containing stars, and she had an extraordinary temperament.
