Third Old Master

The events of the previous night had left Third Old Master restless, unable to sleep well. He couldn't fathom being manipulated in such a manner, especially considering how highly he regarded Shao Yunduan as a son-in-law. He had invested significant efforts in supporting Shao Yunduan and was genuinely concerned about his future. Thus, he couldn't understand why Shao Yunduan had displayed such cold-heartedness.

Determined to get to the bottom of the situation, Third Old Master felt a surge of annoyance as he made his way to Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan's residence. However, he hesitated to approach them openly, fearing the repercussions from the Tian Family. Instead, he discreetly hired a carriage and arrived at the Shao Family's home, hoping that Shao Yunduan had returned from the Hanlin Academy.
