Chapter 842: 842
Although the proposal had already been confirmed, Wen Xinya did not let Yan Shaoqing and Li Mengjie execute it immediately . They were still in the midst of preparing for the expansion into the health products . Yan Shaoqing could not handle so many things at once . Talented manpower was her greatest obstacle .
She hoped that the poaching of undergraduates studying abroad would proceed successfully! Otherwise, her plans would all be in vain .
Wen Xinya rubbed the black chess piece in her hand gently while staring at the different colored chess pieces . A strange look formed in her eyes .
Si Yiyan grabbed one of the white chess pieces using his slender and long fingers . Exuding a domineering aura, he said, “There’s no point in thinking so much . When it comes to chess, you have to go step by step even if you have a strategy . ”
Wen Xinya’s eyes lit up and she held the chess piece in her slender hand . The juxtaposition of the black and white chess pieces seemed rather austere . “You’re right . I was thinking too much . ”
She then bent forward and placed the black chess piece on the board .
The most important thing for her to do now was to deal with the Xiao Family .
“I didn’t expect you to become so shrewd at chess . ” Si Yiyan placed the white chess piece in his hand and fiddled with it for a while . It was as if he was in control of everything . He then put down his chess piece .
Wen Xinya often kept a low profile at the start and gradually showed her prowess later into the game .
Staring at the chessboard, Wen Xinya said firmly, “I must win this round of chess . ”
Old Mr . Mo had never given in to her during chess, unlike Si Yiyan, who often gave her advantages, though he would never let her win . Hence, winning a round against Si Yiyan had now become her goal .
Si Yiyan placed his chess piece down and sipped on his tea leisurely . “It’s not easy to win me . ”
He sounded calm yet mysterious .
However, Wen Xinya could not tell the meaning in his words and she stared at Si Yiyan who was sitting on the chair, clad in a black shirt . He looked relaxed yet graceful and elegant as if he was isolated from the world . It was as if he was a God staring down at the people condescendingly from above .
His eyes were glowing like constellations and he had a smile on his lips . She could not take her eyes off him at all .
Si Yiyan chuckled and said, “Your turn . ”
There was a tinge of smugness in his crisp, clear and elegant voice . Wen Xinya hurriedly got a grip on her emotions and placed a black chess piece down .
Just as she was about to retract her hand, Si Yiyan bent forward and pressed her hand down . “Are you sure you want to make this move?”
He gazed at her and looked into her eyes, on which there was still some water that made them glisten . He stared hard and realized that he could still see her emotions within them .

Wen Xinya suddenly woke up and stared at the chessboard, only to discover… that things seemed to have taken a turn and she was one move away from losing .
Si Yiyan continued to hold her hand and said, “You haven’t set the chess piece down yet . You still have time to change your mind . ”
He did not carry any hopes for her chess ethics .
Wen Xinya hung her head low, feeling the warmth of his hand which seemed to have spread to her heart . Her palms turned sweaty and she retracted her hand from his before saying nonchalantly, “I won’t change it . ”
“Aren’t you going to regret it?” Si Yiyan asked with a smirk, surprised by how resolute she had gotten all of a sudden . He finally placed the black chess piece that he had been fiddling with onto the chessboard .
All of a sudden, the white chess pieces seemed to have formed a huge net surrounding the black chess pieces, which were then quickly defeated .
“No!” Wen Xinya exclaimed before glancing at the chessboard . It was just like the chessboard of her life . She had never once defeated Si Yiyan . It turns out… she had already lost to him right from the start, though she did not feel indignant at all . She was completely defeated by him ever since she met him, but… she did not regret it .
Si Yiyan raised his head and glanced at Wen Xinya .
Her gaze was still bright and clear like dew in Spring that was glistened stunningly beneath the sunlight . It was as if it were the most beautiful sight on earth .

However, Si Yiyan understood the look in her eyes . He suddenly picked up the chess piece that he had just laid down and said, “You may not regret your decision, but I do . ”
Staring at Si Yiyan in puzzlement, Wen Xinya said, “Si Yiyan, it’s gentlemanly to not go back on your decisions . Changing your move after you’ve made it doesn’t seem like something you would do . ”
Regardless of how poor her chess ethics were, Si Yiyan had always stayed firm to his own style . It was the first time that she had ever seen him change his move .
Si Yiyan chuckled and placed the black chess piece onto a corner of the chessboard . “I suddenly feel like losing to you this time . ”
Whenever they played a game of chess, Wen Xinya would self-righteously say, “This time, I’ll definitely win . ” However, she would end up losing every single time .
“You…”
Si Yiyan stared at her intently and said, “Wen Xinya… it’s not that I can’t accept losing to you, but rather I just don’t want to…” He then messed up all of the chess pieces, causing them to fall onto the ground . He continued, “I can’t afford to lose . ”
He would only lose to her this once .
Hence, he would never take failure except this once .

Wen Xinya gazed at his thin lips and realized that he had turned stern and austere all of a sudden . Suddenly emotional, she quickly pretended to tease him . “I’m so surprised that there’s something you can’t afford to lose in this world . The disability to accept failure… is not a good attribute!”
Si Yiyan had always been careful and meticulous with her . He finally won this battle of love that he indeed could not afford to lose!
He had put in too much effort to accept losing .
Si Yiyan stood up and walked towards her . “I’m just a man, and there’s only one thing that men can’t accept losing . ”
Men could lose anything except their hearts .
Is he confessing to me? Wen Xinya’s mind was sent in a frenzy while trying to think of an answer .
However, Si Yiyan did not give her the chance to do so . He bent down and pinned her onto the chessboard . “I’ve long wanted to get intimate with you during chess . ”
Wen Xinya turned red and hot . Before she could even react, he planted a kiss on her lips and she began to find it hard to breathe . However, she was rather relaxed and blissful .
