Upon hearing this, Su Wan spread her hands, looking like a dead pig unafraid of boiling water, and said, "Let me make this clear first, I have nothing but that fiefdom."

If he wanted a fiefdom, she would have no objection.

Anyway, she's too lazy to manage such a big place.

Wei Jingzhuo picked up the black and white chess pieces and put them into the jade box, then pushed the box containing the white pieces to Su Wan.

He looked up at Su Wan, the candlelight illuminating her stunning face. Her eyes, like autumn water, were like a clear spring. Her jet-black hair cascaded over her shoulders, her cherry lips were full and red, and her red dress was unlike anything women of this era wore. Her exposed neck was as white as snow.

His Adam's apple bobbed, his long eyelashes fluttered twice, he lowered his eyes to hide his expression, and his voice was hoarse: "I only want A-Wan... to grant me one request."

Seeing that he hadn't mentioned the fiefdom at all, Su Wan agreed to any request he made without hesitation.

She quickly added, "But let me make this clear first: I won't do murder or arson, and I will only do what I can."

Wei Jingzhuo's brows relaxed as he patiently played chess with Su Wan that evening.

"...Ah Wan can definitely do it."

"Okay, I agree."

Wei Jingzhuo's hand holding the black piece trembled, and his lowered eyes were filled with a fierce predatory intent.

The two exchanged words back and forth, and Su Wan didn't make things too ugly.

Seeing that she was playing seriously, Wei Jingzhuo also put aside his own thoughts and guided her while patiently explaining the purpose of each step.

Gradually, Su Wan also learned Wei Jingzhuo's chess style and played quite well.

Wei Jingzhuo was amazed by Su Wan's intelligence; she could learn so quickly and even master it, making several unexpected moves.

Although some pieces were placed haphazardly, they were quickly able to move out of the game under his guidance.

The night outside the window gradually deepened, and the game of chess was finally over.

Wei Jingzhuo slowly put the chessboard away and turned to walk towards Su Wan.

When they got closer, Su Wan was still lost in the game of chess when she felt a lightness in her body and fell into Wei Jingzhuo's arms. He bent down and picked her up.

She walked to the bedside, gently placed the person on the bed, and said softly, "Ah Wan, we should rest now."
