NovelEnglishChapter 635: Good Plan
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Su Bin was adamant about not tarnishing Su Ning’s reputation, even if it was merely an engagement.
The significance of a girl’s reputation weighed heavily on his mind.
Despite feeling helpless, he knew he had to devise a solution.
After bidding Governor Li farewell, Su Bin sought out Qin Zhenzhen, wearing a visibly discontented expression.
It was evident to Qin Zhenzhen that something was amiss. “Another palace predicament?”
Su Bin shook his head. “It’s about my sister’s marriage.”
He proceeded to recount the unsettling events to her.

“Has the Dragon Phoenix Hall been informed?”
“Not yet, but I’ve alerted them. We should have a response in a few days.” “Let’s hope it’s a test,” Qin Zhenzhen suggested optimistically.
However, Su Bin couldn’t shake the feeling that the Public House genuinely sought to establish a familial connection.
Their family’s wealth, comparable to a liquid treasury, and Su Bin’s meritorious status made the Su family an attractive prospect. Once he attained a third-rank official position, his younger sister would be deemed suitable for a young master of a prosperous family, perhaps even rising to the status of a prince’s imperial concubine.
Qin Zhenzhen proposed a solution.
“It’s already too late to arrange Su Ning’s engagement immediately, and it wouldn’t be appropriate anyway.”
“But there’s a strategy we can employ. I could feign illness, pretend to have a contagious skin disease, and see if that scares them away.”
“But I’ll need her cooperation for this.”
Su Bin considered the option, saying, “If I can’t cup with a better plan in the next few days, this might be the only way. It’s preferable to damaging my sister’s reputation.”
Qin Zhenzhen nodded. “Then, send someone to bring your sister back as soon as possible.”
Given that Qin Zhenzhen had recently established a new shop and training center in Ye City, Su Qing and the others were occupied with business in the capital and couldn’t leave.
It had been three months since Su Ning and Su Cheng went to Ye City.
After contemplating, Su Bin decided, “There’s no need to send someone to pick her up. Let her return directly. She can pretend to be coming hto seek treatment for her illness.’
He recognized that pretending to be sick was not the optimal solution. A girl contracting a contagious skin disease would tarnish her reputation, even if later clarified. It would leave a lasting stain.
Both Su Bin and Qin Zhenzhen spent a restless night, brainstorming for alternatives.
They had actually thought of a potential solution before going to sleep, but each pretended to be asleep, unwilling to disturb the other. As they awoke the next morning, they simultaneously declared,
“Darling, I’ve figured out a solution!”

They exchanged smiles, and Qin Zhenzhen remarked, “Could it be that we have the sidea?”
Su Bin expressed confidence, “I believe the word ‘could’ can be removed.”
Qin Zhenzhen got out of bed with a grin, suggesting, “Let’s jot down our plans separately.”
“Alright!”
Su Bin no longer perceived Qin Zhenzhen as being childish; instead, the concerns from the previous day seemed to fade away.
People are naturally in good spirits when they’re happy, especially after devising a better solution.
In the end, when the couple reviewed each other’s plans, they couldn’t help but embrace and burst into laughter.
Su Bin complimented, “We may not be related by blood, but you are undoubtedly more intelligent than most. This plan is fantastic.” Qin Zhenzhen teased him, “Are you praisingor yourself?”
“Clearly, it’s both of us!”
