Pregnant After Healing the Alpha

Chapter 1016: Chapter 1004: Accepting Defeat

As soon as the chess house owner finished speaking, expressions of surprise appeared on the faces of Zhan

Nanjing and others.

Even Qiao Jing herself felt somewhat unexpected.

The crowd watching was even more puzzled, staring at each other.

What kind of development is this?

The owner actually invited this "girl who only knows a little" to play?!

The noisy laughter from earlier cto an abrupt stop, and the scene fell into silence, with all eyes locked onto

Qiao Jing.

Seeing Qiao Jing not responding for a long time, the owner asked again, "What about it? Girl, are you interested

in playing a game?"

Qiao Jing suddenly thought of something, and instead of answering she asked, "May | ask, how long has this

chess house been operating here?"

The owner stroked his goatee and raised his eyebrows, "Well, that's a long time, at least a hundred years!"

Hearing this, Qiao Jing pondered for a moment.

This large chess house, operating for so many years in Zhao City, and judging by others’ words, this owner

seems quite prestigious.

If she could leverage his connections and influence, she might find the person surnamed Ming that Song Jiaqi

mentioned more quickly.

With this thought, Qiao Jing softly said, "Okay, I'll play a gwith you."

Seeing her agree, the owner was delighted and immediately had a new chessboard set up.

Zhan Nanjing was quite astonished by this and leaned next to Qiao Jing, whispering, "Xiao Jing, can you do it?"

The others traveling with them also watched Qiao Jing intently.

Qiao Jing shook her head, "I don’t know either, let's give it a try."

After all, even if she lost, she had nothing to lose!

Thus, Qiao Jing sat down in front of the chessboard and started playing against the owner.

She was taking the black pieces, so she made the first move.

The owner followed with his move.

The onlookers were very curious, their eyes darting back and forth between the two players, not forgetting to

keep a close eye on the battle unfolding on the chessboard.

They all knew the owner was skilled in chess, with few opponents.

But this "girl who only knows a little," playing against the owner, seemed to be evenly matched!

Moreover, each tshe placed a piece, she did so unhurriedly and without much thought, giving the impression

of having the situation well in hand!

Qiao Jing actually thought of nothing. In the instant she picked up a piece, observing the layout on the

chessboard, she naturally knew what move to make next.

It was also at this moment that she was completely certain that she really used to play chess and seemingly

played quite well!

At the start, the owner was still relaxed, calculating within a few moves to defeat the girl opposite him.

Yet, after less than ten moves, he began to feel pressure and urgency.

He looked up in surprise, staring incredulously at his opponent.

This girl, her chess skills are actually on par with his!!

Realizing this, the owner dared not slack off any longer, immediately devoting his full attention, and played each

move with extra caution.

As the chess gbecincreasingly intense, all those present held their breath, their breaths lightened

significantly.

When experts contest, victory often hinges on a moment's lapse.

Before the crowd could react, the owner suddenly returned his unplaced piece to the nearby container and said,

"Girl, you've won."

Qiao Jing smiled faintly, "Thank you for lettingwin."

Upon hearing the two's conversation and looking at the chessboard’s situation more closely, the people present

cto their senses.

For a moment, everyone displayed shock and couldn't believe it.

"This girl... actually won against the owner?!"

"Judging by her demeanor just now, it didn’t look like a lucky win. This girl really has sskills!"

"She beat the owner, doesn’t that mean her skills surpass his?"

"She doesn’t look more than twenty-something, and she’s already so skilled at chess. That's no simple feat!"

Zhan Nanjing immediately stared at Qiao Jing with admiration, "Xiao Jing, you're amazing!"

She realized that talented people are excellent at whatever they do!

Qiao Jing only smiled without speaking, as she couldn't respond to that.

Because before this, she didn’t even know she had this skill.

At this moment, the owner spoke, his gaze at Qiao Jing filled with surprise and even more with praise.

"Girl, actually, when you first spoke, | knew your chess skills must be good, as no one else saw that there was

still hope in that game, but only you did."

"However, | still didn’t expect you could actually defeat me, which shows how high your skill is in this area!

You're a rare chess master!"

After greatly praising Qiao Jing, the owner suddenly thought of something and changed the topic, "By the way, |

also have a Zhenlong Chess Ghere, would you like to try and see if you can solve it?"

"If you can solve this Zhenlong Chess Game, besides the previous condition, | can promise you one more thing,

as long as it’s not something immoral, | will use all my power to help you achieve it."

With these words, everyone again focused their gaze on Qiao Jing.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Qiao Jing slightly raised her brows, "Okay, I'll give it a try."

To try poses no loss to her.

If she could solve it, she'd gain another promise from the owner.

This deal is quite a bargain!

After Qiao Jing agreed, the owner immediately prepared the Zhenlong Chess Game.

As the chess setup was completed, Qiao Jing glanced at it, suddenly feeling a sense of familiarity.

It felt as though she’d seen it in a book somewhere, or perhaps there was a sense of having set it up herself

once.

Overall, this Zhenlong Chess Game, she must have seen it before, or she wouldn't feel it’s so familiar!

Coming out of her thoughts, Qiao Jing looked up at the owner and asked, "May | ask, who set up this chess

game?"

The owner gazed around at the onlookers, seeing them staring curiously at this place, obviously eager to know

the answer.

He remained silent for a few

seconds, then stroked his goates

Qiao Jing said nothing, only nodding.

"Follow me."

After saying this, the owner turned and walked towards an inner room.

Qiao Jing followed.

Zhan Nanjing and the others followed closely behind.

Soon, the group followed the owner into a room.

After the door was closed, Qiao Jing looked at the owner with an enquiring expression.

The owner didn’t beat around the bush and directly said, "Actually, that Zhenlong Chess Gwas set up by

Divine Doctor Jing."

Hearing this, everyone showed looks of amazement without exception.
