恰巧
When we say 恰巧 (qiàqiǎo), we mean something happens exactly at the right or wrong moment, often by chance.
It's stronger than just saying 'by chance' because it implies a certain fittingness or timing to the coincidence. Think of it as 'just by chance' or 'it so happened that...'.
For instance, if you were looking for a book and you 恰巧 found it right when you opened a drawer, that's the feeling. It's a useful word when you want to emphasize the exact and coincidental nature of an event.
