Chapter 157 – Firefighter saves the day again!



Xie Huilan looked at him and repeated herself. “Do you want to date me?”

Dong Xuebing confirmed he had not misheard Xie Huilan and nodded in a daze.

Xie Huilan nodded with satisfaction. “Alright! From this moment on, we are officially dating.”

Xie Hao cried out in shock: “Sis! What are you trying to do?”

“I am not trying to do anything. I will decide about my marriage myself.” Xie Huilan turned and held Dong Xuebing’s hand and walked towards Senior Xie. She stopped in front of Senior Xie and Wei Nan, and said: “You all claimed that something is going on with me and Xiao Dong? That’s right. We do have something going on. We are dating. Grandpa, I agree to get engaged. But my partner is not Wei Nan. I will get engage to Xiao Dong!”

Wei Nan turned pale. “Huilan! What are you......”

Senior Xie threw the teacup he was holding onto the floor: “Nonsense!”

Xie Hao immediately knew what his sister was up to. His sister was going along with their accusations to piss them off and use this as an excuse to call off her engagement with Wei Nan. Brother Dong and his sister were not dating for real. He added fuel to the fire: “Grandpa, I think Brother Dong is more compatible with Sis than Wei nan. You cannot judge a book by its cover. Brother Dong is the most capable person I have ever met. If you don’t believe me, you can ask the people from his unit. Grandpa, my sister, has finally found someone she likes. Please give them your blessings!”

Wei Nan had only suspected something was going on between Xie Huilan and Dong Xuebing. He did not expect this to be true. He was furious and pointed to Dong Xuebing: “How is he more compatible?! He does not have looks and is so much younger than Huilan! Huilan! What are you thinking?! I know he had saved your life! But you do not need to do this! There are no good qualities in this guy!”

Dong Xuebing shouted at Wei Nan furiously: “Hey! What are you saying?! I do not have any good qualities? What about you? Oh yes....... You have more talents than me! You are good at sneaking up on others back and attack them! You are good at accusing others! Good at creating driving wedges between others! I can never win you in these areas!” After Dong Xuebing knew what Xie Huilan was going to do, he was prepared to support her. After all, he was the one who started this fight. “Senior Xie, I know I am not good enough for your granddaughter, but my feelings for her are true!” Dong Xuebing had no right to say anything earlier. But now, he was “dating” Sister Xie, and he had the right to speak!

Senior Xie points at his granddaughter. His hand was trembling. “You are really dating him?”

Xie Huilan was still holding Dong Xuebing’s hand. “Grandpa, I know who really cares for me. I feel at ease when I am with Xiao Dong. I do not need good looking guys or someone with high status or wealth. I just want to be with someone I like. I do not wish to spend the rest of my life in an unhappy family! I like Xiao Dong!”

Dong Xuebing knew everything was lies, but his heart was racing with excitement.

Wei Nan shouted: “Huilan! How can you be so silly?”

Xie Huilan laughed. “I am silly? I will be smart if I get engaged with you? Who says this? Wei Nan, stop thinking so highly of yourself!”

Xie Hao added: “Brother Dong is so much better than you! Look at yourself in a mirror!”

Wei Nan shouted back: “Xiao Hao! How can you speak to me this way?!”

Xie Hao retorted. “You are also not my family members! I can say whatever I want! What’s wrong?” Xie Hao was not afraid of him!

“Enough!” Senior Xie swings his arm and pushes all the teacups off the table. Crash!!! He looked at Xie Huilan and Dong Xuebing. “You are not allowed to negotiate with me. Xiao Dong, I will get someone to arrange your transfer. You can leave now!”

Wei Nan was relieved. He was afraid that his engagement will be called off.

Xie Huilan looked at Dong Xuebing.

Dong Xuebing is someone who does not care about the consequences when he is angry. He was furious when he heard what Senior Xie says. He understands why Sister Xie was looking at him. She was afraid that she would drag him down with her. But Dong Xuebing knows that regardless of what he does or says now, he had already offended Senior Xie. He does not care anymore. “Senior Xie! I do not want the transfer now! I just want to be with Sister Xie!” Dong Xuebing was an emotional person. You threaten me with my career? F**k You!

Xie Huilan tightens her grip on Dong Xuebing’s hand.

Xie Hao was surprised to see Brother Dong going against his grandfather head-on.

Senior Xie was furious when he saw his granddaughter, grandson, and Dong Xuebing going against his orders. “You don’t want to go to the grassroots level? No! I remember there are lots of vacancies in the Northwest region. You should go there to gain some experience!” Police chiefs in village and town police stations have lower status and authority than a County’s Deputy Station Chief. Furthermore, the Northwest region is a harsh environment. This was no longer a transfer. This was an exiled! Most likely, Dong Xuebing will never return for the rest of his life!

Wei Nan held back his laughter. Senior Xie was going to banish Dong Xuebing from Beijing to stop him from seeing Huilan.

Xie Huilan scowled: “Grandpa, what is the meaning of this?!”

Senior Xie coldly replied. “Didn’t Xiao Dong say that he can take hardships? That place is an excellent training ground for him!

Xie Huilan shouted: “You are banishing him! Is this the way our Xie family treats our benefactor? Ah? Just because of Wei Nan, you become like this?!”

Dong Xuebing’s face turned green. His career might end after this meeting with Senior Xie. Senior Xie only needs to use his mouth, and he can demote Dong Xuebing! There was no way Dong Xuebing could retaliate! Damn! Dong Xuebing’s stubbornness act ups again. The end of my career? So be it! Even if I am kicked out of the government service, I will also support Sister Xie. “Northwest is fine! Senior Xie! I will go wherever you want me to! At most, I will quit from the government service! But as long as you don’t send me to outer space, I will f**king marry Sister Xie!”

Everyone was shocked by Dong Xuebing’s words!

Xie Hao was in awe by Brother Dong!

Wei Nan was laughing in his heart. This Dong Xuebing does not know his place. “Dong Xuebing! Who are you to speak to Grandpa this way?!”

Dong Xuebing looked at him coldly: “Know your place! Are you engaged with Sister Xie now? Sister Xie is my girlfriend! You are the one who has no right to say anything here!” Xie Huilan was forced by her grandfather to get engaged was because of Dong Xuebing. He felt he had to take on full responsibility. Career? Transfer? F**k off! He no longer cares about all these! No matter what he does now, his job will be gone! He might as well blow things up! Former Party Secretary? Former Chairman? You can take my career away from me, but you can’t kill me!

Dong Xuebing had never been in a worse situation like this before. This was also the reason he does not need to hold back!

Dong Xuebing had nothing to lose! At most, he will return back to the starting point! What’s there to worry about?

Senior Xie was panting from his anger as he pointed at Dong Xuebing.

Xiao Dong does not care anymore, but Xie Huilan did not want to drag him down with her. “Grandpa, Xiao Dong said all these things is because of me. But put yourself in his shoes. The moment he stepped into our house, he was almost beaten up by your appointed future grandson-in-law. His girlfriend is forced to get engaged with someone else. His career is also gone. How can he remain calm? It will be a miracle if he is still calm. If you want to banish someone, banish me! This has nothing to do with Xiao Dong!”

The younger generations were challenging Senior Xie’s authority. He was furious. But when he thinks of his granddaughter had already found someone she likes, and he is going to force her to marry someone else for the benefits of the Xie family, he relents slightly. However, he will not give in. “Fine. Huilan, if you stop seeing Xiao Dong in the future and be with Xiao Nan, I can pretend nothing had happened today!”

Dong Xuebing said: “Senior Xie......”

Senior Xie stared at him and interrupted: “Young man! I have given you lots of respect today! If you had not saved Huilan’s life, I would have thrown you out! Don’t think you are her benefactor, and you can ask for everything!”

Dong Xuebing did not cower and retorted: “Am I the one at fault now? You are the one that abused your authority to break us up! I know reasoning does not work when it comes to benefits. But don’t you care about your granddaughter? You are forcing your granddaughter to get engaged with someone she does not like! You think this is right?”

Xie Hao added: “Grandpa, at most, I will get married to someone from the business sector. Can you let Sis off?”

Xie Huilan scolded: “Xiao Hao! Stop talking nonsense!”

Senior Xie had become senile? Maybe. But when it comes to such important matters, he will think through it carefully. He knew his granddaughter’s character. If he pushed her into a corner, she would fight back. That’s why all these years, Senior Xie allowed Xie Huilan to delay her engagement. But now, he can’t wait any longer as all the third-generation children were getting older. He needed Wei Nan’s father’s help and had to bring forward the marriage. But doing this would hurt his relationship with his granddaughter. He also does not want this to happen. But for the family’s benefit, he had to sacrifice Xie Huilan. There are no other ways about this. So, Senior Xie chose a new tactic, or else he does not know what extreme measures his granddaughter would do.

Senior Xie looked at everyone in front of him. “Fine. Don’t say I am unreasonable. Huilan, your father had an argument with me more than 10 years ago. You should also know about this. We settled the argument over a game of chess. Now, I am giving Xiao Dong a chance as he had saved your life. Xiao Dong, you want to marry my granddaughter? Fine. If you can beat me in a game of chess, I will help you get your transfer and even agree to let you be with Huilan!”

Wei Nan panicked when he heard Senior Xie was giving Dong Xuebing a chance. But he was reassured when he heard chess.

Everyone there knows about Dong Xuebing’s chess skills. He might not be a novice, but he was way below average.

Huilan frowned: “Grandpa, this is what you call being reasonable? You should know Xiao Dong’s standard in Chess!”

Senior Xie replied: “I have given you all a chance. Don’t blame me if he cannot win me. Huilan, just get engaged with Wei Nan. This is agreed by the whole family!”

Xie Hao shouted: “Brother Dong cannot even win me! How can he win you?”

Dong Xuebing was infuriated. This is also considered a chance? You can even win the former Chess grandmaster. How can I win?!

Senior Xie looked at Dong Xuebing. “You don’t even dare to take up the challenge? How can you marry my granddaughter?”

Dong Xuebing knew he had zero chances of winning. If he lost, everything would be over, and Sister Xie had to get engaged with Wei Nan! F**k! This old man was too despicable! He was not willing to let Sister Xie off! Is Sister Xie really his granddaughter?

Senior Xie was not giving them any chances. Let Huilan get engaged with Xiao Dong? Impossible!

1 second......

5 seconds......

10 seconds......

Xie Huilan suddenly sighed and released her grip on Dong Xuebing’s hand. “Never mind. When is the engagement?”

Dong Xuebing shouted: “Sister Xie! What are you talking about?!”

Xie Hao also shouted: “Sis!”

Senior Xie had a slight smile. “Next weekend.”

Xie Huilan replied: “Fine. But I have a request. You must not make things difficult for Xiao Dong in the future!”

Senior Xie glanced at Dong Xuebing: “Why will I do that to a brat?”

Dong Xuebing was going crazy. “Sister Xie! You don’t need to worry about me! It’s just a job! Who cares about it!”

Xie Huilan had a bitter smile on her face: “You saved my life, and I can’t even help you get a transfer. I even get you into trouble. I am sorry. Never mind. There is no way I can escape this engagement. I will just get engaged!”

Dong Xuebing replied: “I am the one giving you this trouble!”

Xie Huilan waved her hand helplessly. “Stop, alright?”

Wei Nan had a smile on his face. Xie Huilan and Senior Xie had agreed. This engagement will go on.

Dong Xuebing was boiling with anger. Wei Nan’s victory smile and Senior Xie’s facial expression was like a knife stabbing into his heart. What should I do? I can’t let Sister Xie get married to someone she does not like. I can’t allow Wei Nan’s scheme to succeed!

Xie Hao had given up and was staring at Wei Nan.

Senior Xie and Xie Huilan were discussing who to invite for her engagement.

Dong Xuebing looked at the sad look on Sister Xie’s face and Wei Nan’s irritating smile. If he walked away just like this, he would never forgive himself. He was willing to give in on certain things, but he must not bow down now! He looked at them and said: “I do not agree!”

Everyone was shocked.

Wei Nan sneered. You don’t agree? Who cares?

Xie Huilan shouted: “Xiao Dong! Stop!”

Dong Xuebing looked at Senior Xie and asked: “I want to confirm this. If I win you at chess, you will agree to let me be with Sister Xie?”

Senior Xie narrowed his eyes: “Didn’t you hear what I said earlier?”

Dong Xuebing took off his coat and threw it on a chair. “Alright! Let’s start!”

Wei Nan was stunned for a second and laughed. You want to challenge Senior Xie with your skills? You think too highly of yourself!

Xie Hao also knows Brother Dong can never win. He should be taking a gamble and see if he could win by luck. But in front of absolute power, luck is useless. Brother Dong’s skills were too weak. He couldn’t win his grandfather even when his grandfather is not in his best state.

Xie Huilan firmly said: “Xiao Dong, give up.”

Dong Xuebing looked at Xie Huilan with resolved. “Sister Xie, I will win!”

Xie Huilan frowned. “How confident are you?”

Dong Xuebing replied without hesitation. “None! But I will win!”

Xie Huilan kept quiet for a while and said: “Give it a try then.”

Since Senior Xie had said this earlier, this game of chess must proceed on no matter what. Everyone stood up and walked towards the garden.

Dong Xuebing knew that no matter what he says, Senior Xie will never change his mind. To save Sister Xie, the only way was to win this game of chess. Yes. This is Dong Xuebing’s only hope. He must win! He must win at all costs!

Garden.

Dong Xuebing looked around. “Where is Grandmaster Zhang?”

Xie Hao asked: “You want Grandpa Zhang to be the referee? Ok! I will go and get him!”

After a while, Zhang Wanxu walked into the garden with a smile. He heard what had happened. That novice wants to challenge Senior Xie? He was seen Dong Xuebing played against Senior Xie earlier and knows his standards well. He knew Dong Xuebing had not purposely let Senior Xie win earlier. He will never win against Senior Xie even when Senior Xie gives up two ‘horse’ chess pieces. This will be a one-sided game.

Senior Xie said: “Let’s start!”

Dong Xuebing was not in a hurry to start. “Senior Xie, this game is crucial to Sister Xie and me. I need to warm up first.”

Wei Nan frowned: “Why are you so troublesome?! You want grandpa to wait for you?”

Dong Xuebing shouts back at him, furiously: “What are you shouting for?” You really think you are from the Xie family?

Wei Nan hated Dong Xuebing to the core. He swore that he will get back at Dong Xuebing after his engagement with Xie Huilan.

Senior Xie frowned and waved his hand, agreeing to Dong Xuebing’s request.

Dong Xuebing walked over to the chessboard and looked at Xie Huilan. “Sister Xie, can you play two games with me? I need to get ready.” It’s been a while since Dong Xuebing played chess. This is an important game, and he needs to be in his best state of mind. Of course, no one in the world could get better at chess after one or two games. Dong Xuebing only needs to get back to his usual standards!

Xie Huilan nodded and sat opposite Dong Xuebing. “You go first.”

Dong Xuebing moved his ‘horse’ first.

One move...... 5 moves...... 10 moves......

Xie Hao and Wei Nan were standing beside watching them. Senior Xie and Zhang Wanxu were also interested in Dong Xuebing’s warm-up preparation. They want to see if Dong Xuebing had held back in the earlier games. But after watching for a while, everyone was speechless. Dong Xuebing’s skills were the same as before. Xie Huilan could beat Dong Xuebing effortlessly. Dong Xuebing could not attack Xie Huilan even once.

After 10 minutes, Dong Xuebing sighed. “Sister Xie, please play one more game with me.”

Xie Huilan looked at him and did not say a word. She arranged the chess pieces and start the second game.

In this game, Dong Xuebing finally got back to his former standard and managed to attack Xie Huilan a few times. But his standard was too far from Sister Xie. After about 20 minutes, Dong Xuebing was defeated again. He rubbed his temples and said. “Sister Xie! One more game!”

Xie Huilan shook her head. “Xiao Dong, give up. You can never win my grandfather.”

Dong Xuebing replied: “Sister Xie! Again!”

Xie Huilan looked at him and sighed. She played another game with Dong Xuebing.

Dong Xuebing lost again!

Xie Hao could not bear to watch anymore. “Brother Dong, just give up!”

Senior Xie, Zhang Wanxu, and the rest could see clearly. Xie Huilan could not even win 1 game out of 10 against her grandfather, and Dong Xuebing could not win her. The outcome of the challenge was obvious!

“Sorry to keep you waiting.” After a while, Dong Xuebing walked over and sat opposite Senior Xie. “I am ready.”

Wei Nan laughed. “You really want to challenge?”

Dong Xuebing gave him a stare: “Why not?”

Xie Hao said: “Brother Dong, just give up.” He does not want to see Dong Xuebing embarrass himself.

Dong Xuebing ignored them and looked at Senior Xie: “Senior Xie, I am ready.”

Senior Xie nodded. “Old Zhang, you will be the referee.”

Xie Huilan, Xie Hao, the personal doctor, and Wei Nan moved closer to the chessboard. This match was critical. It concerns Xie Huilan’s future. Even when everyone felt Dong Xuebing had no chance of winning, all of them still stares at the chessboard without blinking.

Senior Xie: “You will go first. Don’t say I am bullying you!”

Dong Xuebing did not reject him. He focused all his attention on his chess pieces and moved his ‘horse.’

Senior Xie did not take him lightly. No matter who he played chess with, he would do his best. He also moves his ‘horse.’

The first few moves of the chess were fast. If the standard of both players were not too far apart, the first few steps would not show the differences between both players. But from the 8th and 9th moves onwards, everyone could tell the differences in their skills. Dong Xuebing was no match for Senior Xie. He did not guard Senior Xie’s ‘cannon’ and allowed Senior Xie to move his ‘cannon’ and limited the movements of Dong Xuebing’s chess pieces.

Xie Huilan sighed and shook her head.

Xie Hao slapped his thigh in disappointment. This winner of this game was obvious and should end in less than 10 minutes!

Wei Nan had a smirk on his face as he looks at Dong Xuebing. Zhang Wanxu was not surprised as he already knew Dong Xuebing’s standard.

Dong Xuebing cursed in his heart. He did not expect himself to make the wrong move. He put down his chess piece and said. “Senior Xie, I made the wrong move. I lost.”

Wei Nan burst out laughing. “You are admitting defeat so fast? This match will decide your fate!”

Senior Xie frowned and felt this young man does not have any perseverance. One wrong move, and he admitted defeat?

Dong Xuebing quickly turned to Zhang Wanxu and asked: Grandmaster Zhang, can you point out what move should I make earlier?”

Zhang Wanxu is a Chinese Chess coach now. He saw Dong Xuebing asking him for advice and said: “Your ‘horse’ should not move here. You should move it to here, and Senior Xie will undoubtedly make this move. After that, you will be able to cross the river.” He moved Dong Xuebing’s chess pieces and nodded. “Senior Xie’s next move will definitely be defending this area. This way, you will be able to attack from this side.”

Senior Xie moved a chess piece. “Then, I will move this piece here.”

Zhang Wanxu looked at Dong Xuebing’s ‘soldier’ “Xiao Dong, move your soldier forward and then your ‘horse’ after that. This way, the game will be in your favor. After all, you made the first move.”

Ok!

BACK!

......

The scenes flashed before Dong Xuebing’s eyes!

When he came back to his senses, he realized he was about to put his ‘horse’ down on the chessboard. He quickly stops and places his ‘horse’ at the spot where Zhang Wanxu told him earlier. Senior Xie thought for a while and moved his chess piece. It was the same as what Zhang Wanxu said. Dong Xuebing did not hesitate for a moment and moved his ‘horse’ across the river. Senior Xie made a defensive move, and Dong Xuebing immediately move his ‘soldier’ forward.

Senior Xie started frowning.

Xie Huilan, Wei Nan, and the rest looked at Dong Xuebing in shock. The few moves he made were precise and accurate. More importantly, Dong Xuebing made those moves without thinking. It was like he changed into someone else! What was going on? Dong Xuebing had not won against Xie Huilan. How did he make those moves? Luck?

After thinking for a while, Senior Xie moved his ‘cannon.’

Dong Xuebing rubbed his chin and moved his other ‘horse’ forward. Senior Xie moved his ‘Chariot,’ and Dong Xuebing followed. He wanted to exchange with Senior Xie, but Senior Xie moved his ‘Chariot’ away. Dong Xuebing moved his ‘soldier’ a step forward. Senior Xie laughed and moved his ‘Chariot’ forward to the center of Dong Xuebing’s territory. Dong Xuebing was stunned. Damn! I made the wrong move again!

“I lost.” Dong Xuebing said and turned to Zhang Wanxu. “Grandmaster Zhang, how should I move earlier?”

Zhang Wanxu replied: “You should not move that soldier. That piece is to defend your territory and could not cross the river easily. Your ‘Chariot’ should move here. Senior Xie’s next move will undoubtedly be defending this chess piece. You will then move your ‘horse here, and his ‘Chariot’ got to move away. This way, Senior Xie’s ‘horse’ will be stuck in his territory. You will have more options after this. Here, here and here...... you can move wherever you want.”

OK! BACK!

......

The scenes before Dong Xuebing’s eyes flashed again!

Dong Xuebing could estimate 1 minute at the back of his hands now. He returned to the moment when he was about to move his ‘soldier.’ He moved his hand slightly to the right and picked up his ‘Chariot’ and place it at the spot where Grandmaster Zhang taught him. Senior Xie really moves a chess piece to defend. Dong Xuebing immediately move his ‘cannon’ attack Senior Xie’s ‘horse’ and Senior Xie moved his ‘Chariot’ according to what Grandmaster Zhang said. Dong Xuebing move his ‘Chariot’ and block all available moves of Senior Xie’s ‘horse,’ trapping it inside his own territory!

Senior Xie looked at Dong Xuebing in surprised. He could not understand why Dong Xuebing felt like he suddenly becomes someone else.

Wei Nan was also stunned. What’s happening? How come Dong Xuebing suddenly become so good at chess?! When he played chess with me, he was not this good! When he played against Xie Huilan, he made lots of mistakes! But the few moves he made now were outstanding! He is just better than me! It feels like...... Zhang Wanxu’s moves!

Xie Hao slapped his thigh excitedly: “Sis! Brother Dong! Brother Dong is......”

“I know!” Xie Huilan was breathing heavily. Her eyes were glued to the chessboard.

After thinking for a long time, Senior Xie made his move. He moved his ‘elephant.’ Dong Xuebing hesitated for a while and moved his ‘cannon’ to the right. Senior Xie saw it and immediately move his ‘Guard.’ Dong Xuebing continued his attack and moved his ‘horse.’ Senior Xie moved his ‘horse’ to defend. Dong Xuebing’s next move was to move his other ‘cannon’ across the river. Senior Xie stroked his beard and ‘Chariot.’ Now, Dong Xuebing had to sacrifice one of his chess pieces!

Dong Xuebing slapped his forehead. “I lost! Grandmaster Zhang, I should not have moved my ‘cannon’ across?”

Zhang Wanxu shook his head. “You are too anxious. Your other ‘cannon’ can remain in your territory. What you should do is to suppress his chess pieces. You are ahead in the game and why didn’t you continue attacking with your ‘horse’? Here and here...... there are many more moves. Senior Xie will move his ‘elephant’ back down, and you can move your ‘horse’ here. Senior Xie will have no choice but to move his guard. This way, you will be able to eat his ‘Chariot,’ and he will be on the defensive. You can then move your ‘cannon’!”

BACK!

......

The time returned to 1 minute ago.

Dong Xuebing stopped his hand midair and move slightly forward to pick up his ‘horse’ to attack. Senior Xie moved his ‘elephant’ back, and Dong Xuebing continued with his attacks. Dong Xuebing was relieved when Senior Xie moves his ‘Guard’ back. Dong Xuebing move his ‘horse’ a step back to attack Senior Xie’s ‘Chariot.’ After Senior Xie moved his ‘Chariot’ away, Dong Xuebing moved his other ‘cannon’ across the river!

Senior Xie’s face changed!

Wei Nan and the rest were shocked!

16 times of BACK!

A total of 16 BACKs!

Dong Xuebing had used up all the BACKs accumulated over the past few weeks in this game!

......

5 minutes passed......

10 minutes passed......

20 minutes passed......

Ta, ta, ta...... it was the sounds of chess pieces landing on the chessboard.

Dong Xuebing looked at Senior Xie and moved his ‘Chariot’ forward. “Checkmate!” He could finally relax!

This was unbelievable!

Goddamn! Is this really Xiao Dong? The Xiao Dong who could not even win Xie Hao just now?

Everyone had seen Dong Xuebing’s skills. He lost to Wei Nan, Xie Huilan, and Xie Hao. His standard cannot even be called average. No one believes that he will win Senior Xie!

But Dong Xuebing won!

Dong Xuebing had won Senior Xie!

Under the watchful eyes of Xie Huilan, Zhang Wanxu, and the rest, Dong Xuebing had not made any wrong moves from the start of the game. He moved his chess pieces without any hesitation. The moment Senior Xie moves his chess piece, Dong Xuebing would immediately move without thinking. He seems to have predicted all of Senior Xie’s moves. Even the best chess players in the world cannot play as fast as Dong Xuebing. He controlled the whole game and suppressed Senior Xie’s chess pieces in his own territory. Senior Xie could not even retaliate!

This was an overwhelming victory!

Dong Xuebing was the clear-cut winner!

Zhang Wanxu looked at Dong Xuebing and smiled. Hidden talent?

Xie Hao jumped up: “Wow! Brother Dong, you won!”

Xie Huilan was still in shocked. She took in a deep breath. Xiao Dong really won?!

Wei Nan was staring at the chessboard in a daze. How did this happen? Impossible! How can there be someone that can beat Senior Xie effortlessly? Dong Xuebing should not be this good!

No one knew what was going on.

Even the personal doctor and servants were shocked.

Senior Xie looked at the chessboard, deep in thoughts. Suddenly, he hit the table and exclaimed. “Splendid move! This move is outstanding!” He turned to Zhang Wanxu. “Old Zhang, if you play with Xiao Dong, are you confident of winning?”

Zhang Wanxu thought for a while and replied: “If I am playing the red chess and I go first, I am confident. But if he goes first, I will not win.”

Xie Hao was dumbfounded. Brother Dong is so good at chess?! Even Grandmaster Zhang cannot win him?

Wei Nan panicked. “Grandpa! Grandpa Xie!” How is this possible?! Xie Huilan will get engage in Dong Xuebing?

Dong Xuebing knew clearly that regardless of the outcome of this game, he had already offended Senior Xie. He was no longer afraid of anything. He does not care about his job anymore. All he wanted was to save Sister Xie. “Senior Xie, Sister Xie, and I......”

Senior Xie looked at Dong Xuebing and did not say a word. He got up and walked towards the villa with his doctor.

Wei Nan also cried out to him: “Grandpa!”

Senior Xie ignored him and entered the building.

Inside of the Villa.

Senior Xie was sitting on the sofa, and he looked over to his personal doctor. This doctor had been serving him for many years. “The youngsters nowadays are getting more capable and have fouler temper. Haha...... I lost the game. I admit my defeat. That Xiao Dong is as good as Old Zhang. Old Zhang had always given in to me during our games. If not, I will also not win him so many times. Xiao Dong is on the same level as Old Zhang. I cannot win him. This young man cannot be judged by his looks.”

The personal doctor replied: “You must watch out of your health. Stop getting angry with them.”

Senior Xie laughed. “Am I really that unreasonable?”

The doctor said: “No. Wei Nan’s father can help the children in critical times. You are also doing this for their own good. In the family, Xiao Hao might seem to have a foul temper, and only you and Huilan can control him. But when Huilan is angry, her father also cannot stop her.”

Senior Xie waved his hand. “Not only her father. I can’t even stop her. She is even more stubborn than me when I was young. No one can control her!” Senior Xie sighed. “My grandson and granddaughter scolded me senile. I also know that Xiao Nan is not good enough to be with Huilan. How many youngsters are good enough for my granddaughter? None! Not a single one! Maybe this was a mistake from the start.”

The personal doctor knew Senior Xie was looking for an excuse for himself to call off the engagement. “Senior Xie, it is not a good thing for a family to fight. Why not...... just call off the engagement?”

Senior Xie thought for a while and asked: “What do you think of Xiao Dong?”

The doctor thought for a second and replied: “He looks ordinary, but he should not be simple. If not, Huilan will not pick him.”

Senior Xie sighed...... This is fate......

The garden outside.

Zhang Wanxu looked at Dong Xuebing with a smile. “Xiao Dong, your standard is good enough to be in the top 3 of the professional leagues. It is rare to see people of your age be so good at chess. Hahaha, although I already have a disciple, if you want to enter the Chinese Chess league, I will make an exception and take you as my disciple. Are you interested?” Zhang Wanxu really likes Dong Xuebing.

Dong Xuebing was surprised. “Grandmaster Zhang. I am very sorry. I want to develop a career in government service.” Dong Xuebing does not have the skills. The match earlier was actually Zhang Wanxu playing against Senior Xie. Most of his moves were taught by Zhang Wanxu. Zhang Wanxu was also family with Senior Xie’s chess moves. If not, it would be impossible for Dong Xuebing to win.

Xie Hao laughed loudly: “Brother Dong! You are pretending to be lousy at chess just now?! You are just trying to show off! Hahaha!”

Wei Nan gritted his teeth. Pretending?! Impossible! We are enemies! When he played with me earlier, why can’t he win? He should win me and humiliate me! If Dong Xuebing were really on the same level as Zhang Wanxu, Wei Nan would never win him!

Dong Xuebing smiled and turned to look at Sister Xie: “Did Senior Xie agree to call off your engagement?”

Xie Huilan replied excitedly. “Since Grandpa made a promise, he will keep to his words. Xiao Dong, thank you very much!”

Dong Xuebing replied: “I am the one who caused trouble for you. It’s great to know that Senior Xie will not force you to get engaged with Wei Nan.”

Xie Hao saw the bitter Wei Nan and purposely said: “Sis, Brother Dong, I wish you two to have a harmonious union lasting a hundred years!”

Dong Xuebing blushed.

Xie Huilan smiled: “We should think of how we are going to apologize to Grandpa! We made him really mad this time!”

Dong Xuebing sighed when he heard this. I’m dead. I still need to face Senior Xie’s wrath. But when he saw Wei Nan’s face as he ran into Senior Xie’s villa, Dong Xuebing laughed in his heart! You want to marry Sister Xie? Get lost!
