"I lost," he said, his tone indifferent, his words extremely simple and straightforward.
Everyone was in an uproar—
It was clear to all that Ning Xia was no match for Bo Siyan, and there was a slight sense of an unjust victory. Bo Siyan could have refused to acknowledge the result without a second thought, but to everyone's utter surprise, he conceded without regard for his own dignity!
My God, who was this woman? How could she make the haughty colonel admit defeat so readily? Everyone knew that the word 'lose' wasn't in his vocabulary!
All of a sudden, the looks directed at Ning Xia were no longer just admiring, but full of genuine respect, capitalized RESPECT!
This was the first woman to make such an exception for the colonel—it seemed she had a ninety percent chance of securing her seat as the colonel's wife!
Finally, someone appeared who could keep the colonel in check, and the soldiers couldn't help but tear up.
