Chapter 208: The Contrast Before and After

The series of events triggered by Li Xuan's actions were all later events. While he was lost in thought, Wen Tingzhu once again faced the situation of playing against two people at the same time.

To be honest, Yang Bo's departure was something he had been mentally prepared for. Because after an incense stick's time had passed during the match, he could clearly feel the tension emanating from Yang Bo, as his breathing had become noticeably heavier.

The only things that could cause such a change in a naturally arrogant scion of a powerful family are either being provoked or being nervous.

Therefore, after that, he silently observed the other party's chess game, which is why he took the initiative to take charge after noticing Yang Bo's unusual behavior.

But Li Xuan was different. He was much better at self-cultivation than Yang Bo. He didn't realize it in advance, so naturally he couldn't study Su Zizhi's chess style early on.

Therefore, when he first took over, he chose a more conservative approach. As a result, observers noticed that he was putting in significantly more effort at this time compared to when he played against Su Zixiu.

This result is undoubtedly a clear signal to those who are unfamiliar with the Su brothers' chess style.

If this is the result, everyone can accept it. After all, in a one-on-two situation, winning a game is already quite difficult, and losing a game is normal.

Just as everyone was trying to explain Wen Tingzhu's behavior, they stared in astonishment:

He surprisingly started playing fast chess.

Everyone was wondering if he knew he couldn't win two games at the same time, so he planned to finish one quickly and then focus on the other.

Li Xuan's pupils contracted slightly, his first thought being: Wen Tingzhu... could he have been studying Su Zizhi's chess moves just now?

Does this mean that he has figured things out and is planning to fight back?

My second thought was: He figured it out in such a short time? Is this person a genius?

Verifying this is quite simple; just keep a close eye on the next move in the game to answer his question.

Li Xuan stared intently at the game of chess he had played before, not even daring to blink, for fear of missing something.

As his opponent, Su Zizhi naturally felt this change, and even faced this impact more directly. If the pieces had any killing power, he should feel a very obvious killing aura now. This was completely different from the previous conservative playing style, which was not played by the same person!

Generally speaking, a person's chess style is highly similar to their personality. Chess style often reflects a person's nature, which is why many people observe others by playing chess.

But how could the opponent's chess style show such two completely opposite behaviors in such a short period of time? Could it be that everything before was just a disguise?

Wen Tingzhu was unaware that his thoughts would lead to so many unwarranted associations. He simply thought that while the Su brothers' chess styles were indeed different, Su Ziqi was slightly better. Rather than getting entangled with Su Zizhi and inadvertently giving Su Ziqi an opportunity, it would be better to cut the Gordian knot and get out of this one-on-two situation as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if the game dragged on for too long, he couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't lose due to distraction. After all, Su Ziqi's chess skills were no less than his own, and he wasn't entirely confident of winning against him.
