Chapter 135 Anthea greeted the man with a courteous nod, “Hello, Mr. A.” “Hello, Mr. A adjusted his microphone, “Shall we begin?” His voice was warm and pleasant, a contributing factor to his popularity.

“Let’s do this.” replied Anthea.

Mr. A initiated the game, “Just so you know, I've made it to the national finals before. I'll make you easy.” Anthea followed, “Mr. A, it’s still a game. | don’t take kindly to handouts.” Mr. A chuckled and shook his head in resignation, “Alright, then.” The match began, and the chatroom started buzzing with anticipation.

‘Go, streamer! You can do this!” ‘Mr. A is professional, no shin losing to him. Go, girl! On Mr. As side, the tone was different.

‘This newbie streamer is so full of herself! Does she think she can beat Mr. A?* ‘This streamer is getting cocky!"” ‘She is totally over her head.” The tension on the board escalated.

Anthea remained nonchalant, even finding the tto joke with her fans amid the growing crisis on the board.

One viewer asked Anthea what she would do if she lostEY “Lost? You're joking, right? Haven't you heard my motto?” ‘Miss, are you still boasting at a tlike this?” Even sof Mr. A’s fans cover to mock Anthea for her hubris.

Anthea, unbothered, spoke calmly, “Mr.” A, watch out, I'm putting you in check.” Mr. A was taken aback.

How could he be in check when he was in control of the game? Anthea hinted, “My knight is about to take your king.” Only then did Mr. A react, quickly moving his king and breaking into a sweat.

Anthea moved her bishop, “Check.” Mr. A was stuck between a rock and a hard place. He had underestimated the rookie.

Now what? If he lost, how could he save face? After all, he was a well-known influencer! Losing to a newbie wouldn't look good.

With no moves left, Anthea captured his king, “You lose, Mr. A.” The chat exploded.

‘How could Mr. A lose?!" “He must have let her win on purpose!” ‘Definitely took it easy on her!’ Mr. A glanced at the chat and replied, going along with the sentiment, “Well, Griffin is a lady after all, and ladies first is only proper,” ‘My man is so chivalrous!” ‘Love him so much!” “What's Griffin so smug about? If Mr. A hadn't gone easy, could she have won?” Anthea was about to sign off when she heard this, and she retorted immediately, “What do you mean, Mr. A? Could you clarify? Just because I'm a woman means | can’t win against you? Are you implying you were holding back? | needed your charity.” She had won fair and square. Why should anyone suggest otherwise? Mr. A smiled, “You do play very well, actually.” “Very well? What does that mean?” “Let’s play again,” Anthea cut to the chase.

Play again? Mr. A frowned.

Griffin’s skills were formidable. Even with a rematch, victory was not guaranteed.

“It’s late. Why don’t we exchange contacts and play another time?” He was a top influencer, with countless female streamers eager to get his attention.

Offering his contact information to Griffin should make her day, he thought.

It wasn’t a privilege extended to just anyone.

“Mr. A, either explain yourself or let's have a rematch!” Mr. A still wore a smile, “It’s just a game. Why so serious?” “Afraid to play?” Anthea raised an eyebrow.

Charler ‘This is outrageoual If you want a rematch, give her one! Don’t go easy this time!” ‘Teach her a lessonl’ With the fans’ fervor, Mr. A reluctantly agreed to another round.

His assistant, sensing trouble, quickly pulled out a phone to download a guide for chess strategies.

With the guide in hand, how could he lose? Mr. A relaxed, and he said, “Since Griffin insists, rest assured, | won't hold back this tim time.” ‘No need to go easy on someone who's too scared to show her face!” ‘Exactly!’ ‘Oh my god, he’s so good to his fans!” The rematch began.
