Chapter 412: Deciding the Winner and the Loser

After that, he turned around and looked at Shi Le.
“Since you are so sincere, then let’s play a game. If you defeat me, then I promise to give my granddaughter the permission to marry your grandson.”
Zuo Yi said as he sat on the sofa and leaned on his walking stick with an arrogant expression on his face.
Shi Le frowned. “What game?”
Zuo Yi turned his head as he looked pointedly at the chessboard that was not too far away.
Chess?
At this time, the scene of him playing chess with Zuo Yi decades ago suddenly flashed through Shi Le’s mind.
Back then, he was not good at chess at all. However, he challenged Zuo Yi to a game of chess because he wanted to take Shen Ruoxi from him. In the end, he had lost to Zuo Yi.
Now, Zuo Yi actually wanted to decide the winner and the loser based on another round of chess again?
“Old man, you know that I am not good at chess, and you still want to use this method to determine the winner and the loser? Isn’t it obvious that you do not want to agree to this marriage at all? Don’t forget that your granddaughter and my grandson have already gotten their marriage certificate!”
“So, what? As long as I don’t agree to it, my granddaughter will always be living here with me, and that marriage certificate can just be invalidated!”
“You!” Shi Le gritted his teeth in anger. He really did not expect this old man to be even more stubborn as he got older!
“Do you want to play or not? You can leave now if you refuse to compete with me.”
“Compete! He will compete!” Before Shi Le could even reply, Shi Nuannuan had already spoken up on her grandfather’s behalf. She then walked over to her grandfather before she whispered, “Grandpa, haven’t you been studying chess every day throughout all these years? You can rest assured that you will definitely win against the president!”
After she was done speaking, Shi Nuannuan pumped her fist in the air as though she was trying to cheer for Shi Le!
Shi Le really did not understand why he had to go through all this just so that his grandson could get a wife.
In fact, he had been studying chess a lot, only because he had lost in the game of chess against Zuo Yi in the past. In the end, Shen Ruoxi was left all alone and Zuo Yi did not manage to give her the happiness that he promised him he would. He did not do it in the end.
That was the reason why Shi Le had been practicing chess repeatedly over the years. If he had won that game of chess, would he have been able to change Shen Ruoxi’s life then?
As he thought about Shen Ruoxi passing away quietly in this world, Shi Le raised his eyes and looked at Zuo Yi.
“Okay. One game to decide the winner or the loser!”
As he spoke, Shi Le had a confident look on his face even though he was not feeling confident at all.
Although he had been studying chess repeatedly over the years, he knew that he was still not a match for Zuo Yi. After all, Zuo Yi had always had an interest in chess since a long time ago.
Both of them walked toward the chess table together and sat down on opposite sides of the table.
Zuo Weiyi and Shi Nuannuan were even more nervous compared to both of them. They, too, hurried over to the chess table to watch the game.
Halfway through the game, Zuo Weiyi, who was watching the game, did not know whether she should feel happy or worried.
She would naturally be very happy if her grandfather won the game. However, that would mean that she would not be able to marry Shi Yuting and both of them could only live in the presidential villa like this for the rest of their lives. However, she did not want to see her grandfather lose either.
After all, Zuo Weiyi knew that her grandfather wanted to put on a strong front in front of Shi Le and would definitely feel very embarrassed if he lost the game to him.
“General!” After half an hour, Shi Le had a very wide smile on his face.
It seemed as though he was about to win this game of chess!
Zuo Yi simply looked at the chessboard without saying anything at all.
However, Zuo Weiyi, who was standing aside, could clearly see that her grandfather had not lost this game. His general could still escape easily and would be able to turn this defeat into a victory.
When she saw the smug look on Shi Le’s face, the corner of Zuo Weiyi’s mouth twitched slightly.
It seemed as though Shi Yuting’s grandfather did not have very incredible skills at chess…
However, just as Zuo Weiyi thought that her grandfather would definitely win the game, Zuo Yi’s next move caught her by surprise.
