Chapter 087: A Narrow Road Encounter

  Summer XiXi saw Chen Yan walk away with the two of them, and her heart felt a pang. She thought to herself, "Why did he have to be so stubborn?"

  Chen Yan and Ruan Yu stood facing each other, their eyes locked in a fierce stare. The air was tense with anticipation.

  "You're really going to do this?" Ruan Yu asked, his voice laced with sarcasm.

  "I'm not backing down," Chen Yan replied, his jaw set in determination.

  Ruan Yu sneered. "You think you can win? I've been practicing for months."

  Chen Yan smiled calmly. "I've been practicing too."

  The two of them began to play, their movements swift and precise. Summer XiXi watched from the sidelines, her heart heavy with emotion.

  As they played, Chen Yan's eyes kept drifting back to Jiang Yan, who was standing off to the side, watching the game with a mixture of sadness and longing in her eyes.

  Summer XiXi felt a pang of jealousy. Why did Chen Yan still have feelings for Jiang Yan? Didn't he know that she was right in front of him?

  The game continued, with neither side giving an inch. Summer XiXi's anxiety grew as she watched, her mind racing with thoughts of what would happen if Chen Yan won.

  Would he really take Jiang Yan back? And what about their bet? Would it still be valid if Chen Yan broke the rules?

  As the game reached its climax, Summer XiXi couldn't bear to watch anymore. She turned and walked away, leaving the others to their fate.

  But as she walked, she couldn't shake off the feeling that she was somehow connected to the outcome of the game. She wanted to know who would win, and what would happen next.

  Little did she know, the consequences of the game would be far more complicated than she could have ever imagined.
