Third Madam heaved a sigh of relief. She looked at Qiao An in confusion, not understanding why she was helping Li Zecheng out. Thinking about it, she felt smug.
She felt that Qiao An had not given up on Li Zecheng.
The Old Master asked the butler to tidy up a room for Qiao An. Although there were many empty rooms in the Li family's villa, most of them had owners. They either chose to move out because of their marriage or work, but they would come back to stay from time to time during holidays.
The butler arranged for Qiao An to stay in Li Zecheng's room.
Although Qiao An was unwilling, she still stayed.
In the evening, Qiao An took the initiative to play chess with Old Master. She lost all three rounds.
The old man looked at Qiao An and said meaningfully, "Qiao An, do you know why you lost?"
Qiao An smiled. "Of course I'm not as skilled."
