One Night Stand With That Beggar

Chapter 963 Equally Matched Opponents



Benedict did not really pay attention to the fact that there was no one around him. In his opinion, as long as the person he wanted was there, others didn’t matter at all.

Furthermore, Naomi was being very nice to him today. It felt as though they were children again – she was Juju, and he was Cutie Pie.

They were a perfect match!

However, when he heard Nelson’ voice, he suddenly raised his head and saw that Nelson was there as well.

Naomi asked in surprise, “Why are you here?”

Only then did Nelson turn around to look at Naomi and reply, “I’m here to give a talk. Why are you here as well?”

Naomi pointed at the chess game and explained, “I’m here to support my friend!”

Benedict stood up slowly in the process. When he saw this scene, he finally realized what was going on.

A few days ago, he heard from some students that a young entrepreneur was invited by the school management to give a talk. However, it was unsuccessful, yet here Nelson was today.

Moreover, he even managed to attract the entire crowd away.

Men could be somewhat rock-headed and dense upon dealing with miniscule matters, but when it came to facing rivals-in-love, they were clearly extremely aware.

This…

It was a war to see who could woo Naomi!

Benedict was young and full of vigor, so naturally, he would not admit defeat that easily!This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

“A match? I’m worried that other people will think that I’m bullying you, Mr. Luther!”

Nelson raised his eyebrows slightly and chuckled coldly, “Of course not! I will admit defeat when the time comes. Since I’m willing to have a match with you, I can accept anything!”

“Okay then!” Benedict pointed to Nelson and said, “Let’s start!”

The students who came out of the hall happened to see the confrontation between the two of them. In an instant, the atmosphere heated up.

“A match between a young chess genius and an entrepreneur? That’s going to be interesting!”

“Agreed, I think it’ll be exciting to watch too!”

“In my opinion, Benedict will definitely win! After all, he is a chess champion! He certainly deserves his reputation!”

“That’s not necessarily true! I’ve heard that rich people are actually quite skillful. They have been trained by various talented professionals since young, so there’s no telling what they can do!”

“You’re right!”

It was an exciting game to begin with, but it soon became heated because of everyone’s bets and speculations!

Naomi looked at the two, slightly concerned as she said, “Actually, the two of you don’t necessarily need to compete!”

“We have to!” The two of them said unanimously.

Naomi was speechless.

Soon, the chess match began. Benedict was very calm. After all, he had taken part in international competitions before. However, the crowd was surprised because Nelson was also very calm.

As soon as they started, the two of them were already on equal terms!

It was a match between two experts!

With that, the crowd was even more hyped up!

The match went on as the two of them made their moves very calmly. The first half of the match was basically a tie.

There was no way to predict the outcome.

Soon, the crowd fell into another round of discussion, “From the looks of it, is it going to be a draw?”

“That may be true! However, if it was really a draw, it would be considered a loss for Benedict, right? After all, he is a professional player who has won numerous chess competitions before!”

“Though, defeating professional players doesn’t mean that you can’t be defeated. There are many people in the world who are unwilling to show their true colors.”

Benedict was still young. At first, he thought that Nelson was merely his rival in love.

Now that he realized that Nelson was a worthy opponent, his thoughts were running to seek for a solution so he could regain the upper hand. He could ignore everyone’s gossiping, but Naomi…

He did not want to lose in front of the person he loved the most!

The more he thought about it, the more confused he became.

Faintly, he began to feel a stabbing pain in his chest. He took a deep breath and suppressed his emotions.

Naomi looked at him and hurriedly asked.

“Benedict, are you alright?” She had been watching him grow up ever since they were children. Hence, she was very familiar with his physical condition.

He did not seem well, therefore she was worried that something would happen to him.

Benedict shook his head and insisted, “I’m fine!”

His situation gradually stabilized after a few more moves. He began to feel as if the outcome of the match was about to be decided!

Just when everyone thought that Benedict would definitely win, Nelson suddenly launched a counterattack.

He suddenly blocked Benedict’s path of retreat, causing Benedict to be in a dilemma!

Everyone instantly sighed.

“Wow! This was a power move!”

When Benedict heard this, he subconsciously looked towards Naomi. He saw that she had locked gazes with Nelson at that very moment.

All of a sudden, he could taste the coppery taste of blood in his mouth, and the pain in his chest became more apparent!

The next second, Benedict’s face suddenly turned pale, and the chess piece in his hand fell to the ground.

Naomi came to her senses and shouted, “Benedict! What’s wrong? Are you not feeling well? I’ll take you to the hospital right away!”

Benedict pushed her away and growled, “Leave me alone. The chess match is not over yet!”

“You idiot!” With a smooth sweep, Naomi shoved the whole chess board onto the ground.

“Which is more important? Your life or the chess match? Let’s go to the hospital immediately!”

After she said that, she ignored any other discontent Benedict had, picked him up in her arms and ran towards the gate.

Everyone was taken aback.

“Who is that? Why is she so strong?”

“Judging by her appearance, I thought that she was a sheltered princess. I didn’t expect her to be a knight in shining armour!”

“Although I’m jealous of Benedict’s relationship with her, why do I feel that they are a perfect match?”

Nelson’s gaze immediately darkened. Now that he recalled it, Naomi didn’t even spare him a gaze!

For some unknown reason, his chest tightened.

Richard asked in a hurry, “Sir, this match…”

“Forget about it!” With that, he got up and strode out.

Outside, Naomi was waiting for a car with Benedict in her arms. Although Benedict was tall, he had not been in good health and had always been quite thin. Since Naomi had practiced martial arts for quite some time, it was normal for her to be able to lift him up easily.

Since this was an unusual scene, and Benedict’s expression looked sickly and slightly ominous, no cars were willing to stop for them.

Just when Naomi was considering calling an ambulance, Nelson’s car suddenly swerved out from inside the university campus.

“Get in!”

Naomi did not think much about it and hurried into the car with Benedict!

Richard looked at the situation and said in a rush.

“Sir, should… I take a taxi back by myself?”

“Drive!” Nelson gritted his teeth.

“Oh, ok!” Richard quickly got into the driver’s seat, only to find Nelson getting into the backseat.

The car sped away, and Nelson watched as Benedict leaned on Naomi’s shoulder from the corner of his eye.

Naomi had grown up with Benedict. She had regarded him as her younger brother, so she did not feel that there was anything wrong with it.

However, Nelson’s expression became more and more gloomy. When Richard looked from the rearview mirror for the third time, he saw that Nelson’s face was already as dark as a thunderstorm.

He had never seen Nelson act like that before!

Just as he was hesitating whether he should remind Naomi or not, Nelson had already spoken.

“There is a turn up front. Let him lean against me!”

Naomi grunted, allowing Nelson to drag Benedict and forcibly have him lean against Nelson’s shoulder.

Richard was surprised.
