A/n: This chapter is now fixed. Thank you for waiting.

*****

Like the Go pieces that were cornered and captured, Head Master Fei and his men found themselves forced off the board, admitting defeat. His schemes had been seen through and countered so perfectly that he had no grounds to argue.

Head Master Fei signaled his men to retreat, his heart heavy with shame.

"This will be the last time you can play dirty, Head Master Fei." Fei Chuan's cold voice sounded beside him. "If you ever truly considered me your grandson, then withdraw your lawsuit against her. If you do that, I will forget you putting a gun to my head," 

For the first time, Head Master Fei felt such shame that he wished the ground would open up and swallow him. What made it worse was that he felt this way in front of his own descendant—the very one he had just promised to protect, only to put a gun to his head moments later.
