The dining table for three people is very harmonious.

What Qiao Zhen and Mo Kai talked about was nothing more than some recent trends in the business world, interspersed with some appropriate concerns about their emotional problems, nothing unusual.

After dinner, Qiao Zhen suddenly suggested that he and Mo Kai play a game of chess.

The two men sat opposite each other, and Mo Kai took the initiative to suggest that Qiao Zhen should play the white chess piece and he should play the black chess piece.

Qiao Zhen smiled several times at the corners of his eyes, "You brat, you're looking down on me, right?"

In chess, the player holding the white piece can move first. If white makes the first move, he usually has an advantage at the beginning.

Mo Kai responded with a smile, "I don't dare, please ask first."

Qiao Zhen didn't waste any time talking to Mo Kai and just moved on to grab the center.

Qiao An knew a little bit about chess and stood quietly beside Mo Kai, watching the game without saying a word.

It's just that I only have a superficial understanding of it, and gradually I can't understand their advanced formations, and my eyes can't help but change from watching chess to watching people.

Both of them were focused on the chessboard in front of them, as if they were the "king" and "queen" in the chess game, sitting on the horses and commanding thousands of troops.

The same focused look, the same noble temperament.

However, as the chess game lasted longer, the expressions of the two men changed slightly.

Reflected on the chessboard, Qiao An could see that the flags on the board were very anxious, and the two sides were evenly matched.

Time passes, but they are still indistinguishable.

Qiao An looked at Mo Kai. Under the soft light, his lenses shone with tiny pieces of light, covering his pair of deep pupils. His profile was resolute, he frowned slightly when he was thinking, and he was confident when he made a move.

No matter when, Mo Kai is firm and confident, whether facing challenges or solving troubles.

Just like at this moment, even if the person sitting across from him was a strong man that everyone feared, Mo Kai respected him equally but was not afraid at all.

So, he can also handle the next board meeting properly, right? Qiao An murmured in his heart, he can, he can definitely do it.

"Hahaha."

With a burst of hearty laughter, Qiao An was shocked to realize that the game was finally over.

The outcome is decided.

Qiao An's eyes fell on the chessboard, and her heart tightened.

Don't regret defeat.

In the past, Qiao An would not have cared about the outcome, but at the moment when the board of directors was voting, even Qiao An, who had never believed in strange powers and chaos, always felt that losing at this time was not a good sign.

Mo Kai's face looked completely unharmed, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly, "Dr. Qiao, I admire you."

Qiao Zhen leaned on the back of the sofa, "I haven't played chess so happily in a long time, but..."

Qiao Zhen's eyes flashed, "You should let it go."

Mo Kai shook his head.

Qiao Zhen was silent for two seconds and then said to Qiao An, "Miss Qiao, I'm a little thirsty after playing chess. Could you please go make us a cup of tea?"

How could Qiao An not understand the meaning of the words?

Qiao Zhen wanted to talk to Mo Kai alone.

Qiao An nodded and avoided.

When Qiao An's back disappeared, Qiao Zhen said, "The original winner was you."

Qiao Zhen picked up the black stones on the table and reviewed the game on the chessboard. "For example, in this fatal move, if you lose a pawn, you can take the opportunity to give up a stone. This gives me the illusion that I have an opportunity to take advantage of it. I will definitely follow this direction."

Let’s go. Then, I will be the loser.”
