Chapter 61: Chess Game (2)

The professional chess player walked up to Kang Taehyun and raised his chin.

"Those three games were just randomly arranged by me. You think it's because you solve, now you have the ability to defeat us professional chess player?"

He is the professional chess player invited by this store, named Fang Wen.

Although Fang Wen is a Candidate Master Level professional chess player who has only just achieved success this year, he is determined by a complete victory.

He is the strongest among this year's batch of chess players.

He started playing chess at the age of seven, and has been playing chess for ten years.

He participated in a promotional match before, but it was a pity that he didn't make it.

This year has finally been decided, and have officially stepped into the chess world so he attaches great importance to his status as a professional chess player.

Now he heard that someone actually said that if you play chess with a professional player, you won't be sure whether you win or lose.

How arrogant is it to say such a thing.

There is a world of difference between professional chess players and normal chess players.

Kang Taehyun raised his eyebrows when he saw this proud guy appearing suddenly.

"Who are you?"

The staff next to Fang Wen introduced.

"This is the professional chess player invited by our shop, Fang Wen."

"You are a professional chess player?"

Kang Taehyun wondered, he only seemed to be in his teens, and he was still a kid. The airs he puts on are bigger than him.

"That's right, I'm a professional chess player. Didn't you just say that winning or losing chess with a professional chess player is not guaranteed? Then please advise."

Fang Wen made a gesture of invitation, but his attitude was very arrogant, and he didn't pay attention to Kang Taehyun at all.

"Okay, let's have a round." Kang Taehyun was stimulated by his arrogant attitude.

He couldn't understand that kid's arrogant look.

At this moment, he had obviously forgotten his chess skills, and even amateurs couldn't play chess. Not to mention the profession.

He was in fire, but Lee Minho wasn't yet.

Lee Minho grabbed him, and said to Fang Wen.

"Just now, I was the one who solved the three chess games, so I should play with you."

Kang Taehyun realized instantly, yes, it was Lee Minho who solved the chess game just now, not him.

'Damn it, my mind was dazzled by anger just now.' He almost did such a mindless thing.

If he really played chess with that Fang Wen, it would mean that he stole Lee Minho's chess game.

"It's you?"

Fang Wen glanced at Lee Minho, then at Kang Taehyun.

Then the corner of his mouth raised a sneer.

"I thought it was some kind of master, so it turned out that he couldn't even solve my chess game. It's embarrassing, shouting that he can beat me."

Fang Wen sneered, walked to the chess table where the chess pieces were placed, and sat down.

"What did you say?"

Kang Taehyun didn't expect that Fang Wen would be so direct and sarcastic to himself.

Immediately wanted to come forward to find him a pay.

But Lee Minho grabbed him tightly.

"Kang Taehyun, calm down."

"Young Master Lee, you heard it just now, he actually mocked me."

Kang Taehyun, who was caught, was not convinced, and said.

"What is wrong with what I said just now, how will you know whether you win or lose if you don't play chess. Just because you're a

professional chess player, you will be invincible in the world."

Fang Wen looked at Kang Taehyun with the rage eyes and answered.

"You can only speak with strength in chess world. If you can't beat me, please shut up."

The implication is that if you can't beat him, you don't even have the right to speak.

Lee Minho frowned, unable to listen anymore.

In the beginning, there's nothing wrong with what Kang Taehyun said.

Indeed, professional chess players are very powerful.

But this chess has not been played yet, who can predict the winner or loser.

He didn't expect Fang Wen to be so arrogant and contemptuous of others.

Although Lee Minho didn't know Kang Taehyun for a long time, the relationship between the two was far from the level of him and Kang Dongwon.

However, Kang Taehyun came with him. While Fang Wen looked down on them, his eyes also looked down on him.

Fang Wen saw that Lee Minho hadn't come yet, so he said directly.

"Hey, do you want to play? If you are afraid of losing, you can just admit defeat now. My time is precious, and I don't want to waste it on people like you."

Lee Minho didn't expect that this person would talk to him like that.

Kang Taehyun was even more enraged, he lifted up his sleeves.

"Young Master Lee, don't stop me, I have to make him know his place tonight."

When the staff saw it, they hurried forward to block it.

"Guest, calm down, please calm down."

After seeing it, the onlookers pointed at Lee Minho and the other two.

"What's the matter with these two people, aren't they playing chess? Why does it seem like they are looking for someone to fight?"

"How shameless, if you can't beat him, just go away."

"That's right, the professional chess player was right."

"He is a professional chess player, and time is precious. If you don't want to play, don't waste his time."

"In my opinion, the two of them should be kicked out."

"Yes, get out."

Lee Minho and Kang Taehyun seemed to have provoked the anger of the public.

But the staff did not dare to drive them away.

Because they are a restaurant after all, there is no reason to drive away customers.

When Fang Wen heard that everyone around him turned towards him, he proudly said to Lee Minho.

"If you want to leave, it's okay, just apologize to me first."

Kang Taehyun was furious, and Lee Minho was directly angered by Fang Wen.

{The system detected professional chess player Fang Wen's humiliation to the host, please make a correct counterattack.}

{Play a game of chess with professional chess player Fang Wen. If you win, you will be rewarded with a super rebate card. If you lose, the system will withdraw all rewards.}

Well, it seems that the system can't stand Fang Wen anymore, and actually gave him a task.

As soon as Lee Minho saw the rebate card, he immediately became very energetic.

Lee Minho think that Fang Wen is actually quite cute, and not only gave him lucky points, but also gave him a rebate card.

"Apologize, yes." Lee Minho said.

Fang Wen smiled and said.

"Then let's start now."

"Young Master Lee." Kang Taehyun pulled Lee Minho, hesitant to speak.

'Young Master Lee is really going to apologize?'

Is the two of them, apologizing to Fang Wen, is he worthy?

"I haven't finished my words yet." Lee Minho gave Kang Taehyun an assuring look, and then said to Fang Wen.

"You and I will play a game of chess. If I lose, we will apologize to you. If you lose, apologize to us in front of so many people."

Unexpectedly, the person in front of him would actually dare to play chess with him.

Fang Wen agreed with a funny face.

"Okay."

It's really overreaching, Fang Wen originally planned to give up.

Now, not only is he not going to give up, but he also wants to knock this person down in one go at the beginning of the game.

Let him see how powerful a professional chess player is.

Lee Minho sat down opposite to Fang Wen.

"Let's guess first."

"I originally wanted you to use white. But since you want to guess first, then guess first."

When professional chess players play chess with normal amateur, they will basically let the other side play black.

Sometimes it is necessary to give way to show respect.

But seeing that Lee Minho actually wanted to guess first, it meant that he didn't need to be humble, so Fang Wen would no longer be humble.

Fang Wen grabbed a few white pieces from the chess basket, and Lee Minho also took out a black pieces from the chess basket.

Both sides are placed on the board at the same time.

Two white pieces and one black piece.

Lee Minho guessed wrong, so Fang Wen went first.

Kang Taehyun at the side saw that Fang Wen was actually in the dark, and suddenly felt extremely panicked.

The opponent was originally a professional chess player.

Now that the opponent is in the dark piece, Lee Minho's chances of winning will be greatly reduced.

When the guests around saw Fang Wen, they immediately shook their heads.

"Young man is arrogant. He shouldn't have guessed first just now."

"Yeah, it's okay to be young and energetic, and it's okay to be full of self-confidence. Too much self-confidence is arrogant."

"There was no suspense in this game. Now it seems that the outcome has been decided."

The game hasn't even played and yet the people around have started to sing bad words about Lee Minho.

"The game hasn't been played yet. How do you know that he will win before the last moment. Be careful and wait until you all get slapped in the face."

Even though he said that, Kang Taehyun still had no idea about Lee Minho.

After all, he didn't know Lee Minho's chess strength, even if Lee Minho had solved three games of chess just now.

But as Fang Wen said, this does not mean that Lee Minho can win against Fang Wen.

After all, those three chess games were just a tool Fang Wen used to stop those who were too weak.

However, Lee Minho, who was the person involved, remained calm from beginning to end.

Lee Minho himself doesn't know what level he is now.

But after all, after going through the hellish teaching of the chess teacher space system and played nearly 30 games online.

He thought that his strength was not bad.

But facing Fang Wen, a real professional chess player, Lee Minho still took it seriously.

This is, in reality, the first time he played against others.

Moreover, he was playing against a professional chess player.

Fang Wen picked up the black chess piece and played it directly on placing center of the

chess board.

Lee Minho then picked up a white chess piece and landed on the opponent's right hand side.

The war is immninent.

When the people downstairs got the news, they all swarmed up.

The second floor was suddenly crowded with people, and some people stood on the stools in order to see clearly.

Some people hold their mobile phones and prepare to record videos.

The waiter who was serving the food couldn't squeeze in. Just get a manager.

But now that these people have a lot of fun to watch, who wants to eat!

No matter how much the manager tried to dissuade them, they just refused to leave.
