Third Madame did not believe that the incident was a mere accident or a coincidence. She was convinced that it was all part of Qiao Kou's plan.
That despicable Qiao Kou had orchestrated Qiao Wei's ruined marriage, and Third Madame refused to accept such an outcome.
In truth, Third Madame wasn't entirely wrong, but her focus was misplaced. Qiao Kou wasn't the sole mastermind behind this "accident." Qiao Kou and Qiao Wei's fiancé, Ning Liufang, had conspired together.
Third Madame would never have imagined that upon Qiao Kou's return to the capital, she would successfully captivate Ning Liufang during the few banquets they attended together. The two of them collaborated to devise this plan.
Why did they choose this particular moment? Qiao Wei and her husband's wedding was scheduled after the New Year.
