Chapter 50: The Black Lotus Prince's Beloved (12)



"Miss Luo, please."

Pei Xiuyan had very handsome eyebrows and eyes, holding a white piece in his hand, with an otherworldly and ethereal appearance. In contrast to his aura, every chess piece he placed was filled with murderous intent.

Fei Wan was obsessed with the black piece, deep in thought. Seeing Pei Xiuyan's chess pieces approaching step by step, she knew that if she made a wrong move, she would be devoured.

Compared to Pei Xiuyan's nonchalant attitude at this moment, Fei Wan felt a little bit tired.

Her chess skills were not bad, but she could not do it as easily as Pei Xiuyan.

Fei Wan placed a piece, his brows suddenly furrowed. He stopped Pei Xiuyan's chess piece and picked up the black piece he had just thrown: "I regret it."

"No regrets after making a move, Miss Luo, do you understand?"

Pei Xiuyan saw her acting so foolishly, but was not annoyed. Instead, he asked in a gentle voice.

"Of course I know, but if I don't regret it now, I will lose."

Fei Wan spoke with confidence, teetering on the edge of death.

But her actions did not make Pei Xiuyan impatient.

She was a spoiled little girl and had no manners even in front of him.

Compared to the rumored empty shell,

There are still some noteworthy aspects.

It's just that my chess skills are sometimes a bit rogue...

Pei Xiuyan put down the chess piece in his hand. "Oh? Then what should I do? A game of chess is like life; there's no such thing as a second chance."

"So... I'm not as skilled as you. I can't beat you no matter what."

Fei Wan held the chess piece and casually threw it into the chess jar, smiling brightly: "Your Highness, let's play something different."

She pointed at the chessboard and said, "Gobang. You take turns placing your pieces. If you can form a line with all five pieces, you win."

"good."

Pei Xiuyan picked up the white piece and was obviously interested in the Gobang that Fei Wan mentioned.

Fei Wan specifically looked through his memory and found that Gobang had never appeared in this time and space.

Back then, she was invincible in Go and no one could beat her.

In fact, the reason why she gave up Go and played Gobang with Pei Xiuyan was because of her preference for Gomoku.

Not only was she no match for Pei Xiuyan, but more importantly, Pei Xiuyan had little interest in Go, even though he was a master of it.

Reality is full of intrigues, so it’s better to have some fun.

"Your Highness, may I borrow some paper and pen?"

Fei Wan had seen the paper and pen on the side before. Pei Xiuyan had a beautiful handwriting, so it was not surprising to see paper and pen on the table.

She hadn't figured out Pei Xiuyan's chess skills before, so she didn't dare to speak rashly.

But she is very confident in herself now.

"Whoever loses will be punished."

In response to Pei Xiuyan's doubts, Fei Wan smiled mysteriously, "You will understand when the time comes."

Pei Xiuyan was not familiar with the chess game, and as expected, Fei Wan had the upper hand in the first game.

Pei Xiuyan was willing to accept the loss of the bet. He saw the girl in front of him tear the rice paper on the table into several pieces and write something on it with a pen.

After she wrote a few words, the girl covered the note and prevented him from reading it.

"Your Highness, could you please close your eyes?"

Her voice was gentle. Pei Xiuyan didn't know why, although he was always on guard against others in the deep palace, he couldn't be on guard against the person in front of him.

Pei Xiuyan closed his eyes, and when he sensed her approaching, his spine stiffened slightly.

He was not used to being approached by others, and a murderous intent suddenly arose in his heart.

It was only for a moment when her fingers gently touched his forehead.

Her fingers were soft and delicate, without any malice, and seemed to soothe him and make him relax.

"Okay."

Hearing her voice, Pei Xiuyan's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he opened his eyes, and her bright smile appeared in front of him.

There was a note hanging on his forehead. Pei Xiuyan wanted to reach out and tear it off, but was stopped by the girl.

The girl laughed out loud, a rare outburst of laughter. "I accept the loss, Your Highness."

She smiled so happily, was it because of him?

There was no malice or ridicule, but joy from the heart.

How long has it been... since I saw such a kind smile associated with him?

Pei Xiuyan lowered his eyelashes in confusion, his eyes meeting the girl in front of him, his brows gentle and his voice slightly cold.

"good."
