âIt was Your Highness who ordered Miss Zhenzhen and Miss Yingxue to marry into the princeâs mansion together. The Old General disagreed and was angered by Your Highness to the point of vomiting blood. Now, our families conflict, and because of this, General Xiao Zheng is afraid that our Marquisâs Manor will be overbearing, so he doesnât dare to agree to the marriage with Miss Su Han!â
When Su Xinlan heard this, she nodded in satisfaction and walked away leisurely.
Upon her return today, she naturally knew that Su Qingzhi would not agree to her marrying Zhenzhen!
However, this was not her goal. What she wanted to bribe was the servants in the Marquisâs Manor. She wanted them to spread the rumors in the Marquisâs Manor first, then spread them outside the manor and throughout the entire Jiang Du City.
By then, the reputation of the Su Familyâs daughters being jealous would spread. If Su Yingxue and Su Han wanted to get married, they would have to fulfill Zhenzhenâs wish!
Otherwise, Su Yingxue would be humiliated for the rest of her life, and Su Han would never be wanted by anyone!
If she did not fulfill her daughterâs wish, none of the Su familyâs daughters would be able to marry well!
Ye Zhenzhen waited in the manor for two days before going out for a gathering to drink tea. When she heard the rumors, she knew that her mother had already settled the matter.
She was in a particularly good mood. She bought two more pieces of jewelry at the Thousand-Jiao Pavilion. She thought about marrying into the Ninth Princeâs Mansion in the future and adding to her dowry.
In the Thousand-Jiao Pavilion, Su Han was also buying things for Su Yingxue.
With Su Yingxueâs introduction, she got to know Wu Jinyan. Knowing that she was going to marry Su Hao, she treated Wu Jinyan like a younger sister.
Wu Jinyan treated her the same.
However, Wu Jinyan had a lot of gossip with the ladies around her every day, and some of them were heard by Su Han. Wu Jinyan was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable, so she patted her hand and advised her, âDonât take these words to heart. Iâve already asked the people in the shop to help clarify it. We wonât let these rumors spread throughout Jiang Du City!â
Su Han looked serious. âI donât care about myself, but Yingxueâs marriage canât be affected. Your Highness told her to focus on her medical studies and do what she wants. If she knew about this, she would be distracted.â
Wu Jinyan admired Su Hanâs integrity and her love for her sisters. She had wanted to have such a good sister since she was young.
Therefore, she became even more polite to Su Han. âDonât worry. Yingxue hasnât been out these days, so she probably doesnât know. Iâll send people to deal with her without leaving a trace. I believe that after a few days, there wonât be any bad rumors.â
Su Han believed in Wu Jinyanâs ability. She smiled and said, âThankyou.â
Wu Jinyan held her hand and went downstairs with her things.
She wanted to send Su Han to the carriage herself because she was worried about her. However, she saw a tall figure guarding the stairs with a knife.
The masked man nodded at Su Han. âMiss, are you going back?â
Su Han nodded. âYes.â
This person immediately reached out to take the things from their hands and turned around to take them to the car.
His voice was a little unpleasant, and he didnât speak much, but Wu Jinyan could tell. âYour guard is loyal. Besides, I can see that his steps are steady. In terms of martial arts, heâs not an ordinary person.â
Su Han smiled faintly. âHeâs a general in the army. I thought it was a waste of his talent to protect me, but he said he was here to repay his kindness. I didnât know how to refuse him, so I had no choice.â
Su Han had advised Song Chengyi several times not to waste his time on her.
However, Song Chengyi was persistent. He was always by her side to protect her silently. It made her feel that she was being a little heartless to chase him away.
