Su Chenghui knew a thing or two about chess and looked at the game in astonishment.
Grandfather Li was clever and good at chess, but Huo Jinyao was able to unravel each trick without any fear.

Li Qianxue had just returned from giving instructions for dinner to the maids and Gao Yue'e was a noble lady who knew about music and the books.
Their eyes swept over the chess game and then stared at Huo Jinyao with deeper interest.
Su Peizhen was engaged in the chess game, but she turned her gaze and found that Su Qingsang and Su Yuxin had disappeared.
Su Qingsang and Su Yuxin were standing behind an orange tree in the garden outside.
