All of the eyes, focused on the Second Young Master. Mian Mian, and his other men also entered the room. Wang Yibo focused on his eyes to Hao Xuan, and he told his men to bring him to his seat coupled with Xiao Zhan, and he leisurely sat.

The board of chess still not played.

It means, the game never even started.

His eyes analysing, the green and white squares.

"My younger brother never change, isn't he?"

"Hao Xuan, I'll never let you hurt Zhan-ge. . ." Then his eyes glowed with convinced oath. "If you laid your hands on Zhan-ge, I'll make sure that you'll see what a true hell is, before you knew it."

"Oh, I'm flattered! My dear brother!" His eyes glowed with excitement, as he touched the King piece on his fingertips. Everyone was amazed, some took heavily breathing the others just can't look these two Masters.

Xiao Zhan finally stopped anxious, he already set his heart and mind relaxed, he found himself comfortable on Wang Yibo there beside him. His head hurt, really painful when he recalled those little detail, as if he did knew how to play in the world he wasn't aware of.

"You may now take your turn, do the honour and favour on his place."

Hao Xuan first move was one of his pawn, he smirked and gestured his hand to Wang Yibo.

"Who do you think will win?" Guo Cheng asked Cao Xiang Jun.

"Our boss, of course. No doubt."

"Why do you think so?"

"He has a lucky charm, look."

"What-" Guo Cheng gulped what his friend meant, and was not happy about it either.

Yeah, Young Master sure has a lucky charm! And there he is!

His concentration was too focused on the game and the killer tension between the siblings that he forgot that target.

Wang Yibo watched how his brother moved the piece from f2 to f3. He laid his hand on the pawn behind his King, he moved the pawn from e7 to e5.

"A King's Gambit?" Wang Hao Xuan inquired.

"You could say that." Wang Yibo replied.

"What if I win. . . what will you do?" He moved the other pawn from g2 to g4. Wang Yibo smiled at this idea, he knew the chances of winning of his piece has low probability but it seems that Hao Xuan hasn't even aware. His last move fatality the e1 and h4, to deliver the his Queen diagonally.

"There's no possibility you could win against me."

"Hahahahahahahahaha! That's a fighting spirit you got there! Sure I followed where the water flows, isn't that right?"

Wang Yibo last turn, as he delivered that last piece, the White King cornered, like a prey has no where to go.

". . .Checkmate" The black Queen is in now set on the h4. Xiao Zhan watched the whole scene, it was flicked on a light. The game stopped where it begins, it is all over now.

That was quick! Guo Cheng thought.

Wang Hao Xuan stopped his track, and couldn't believe what has transpired.

"This move. . . Isn't the fool's mate?"

"It is."

"Am I really that fool?"
