Su Bin smiled and remarked, “I can’t say for certain, but predicting the future is always uncertain, isn’t it?”

“In reality, my considerations aren’t as long-term as you might believe.”

“The main reason for my initial hesitation was my perception of the Crown

Prince’s character. As for his virtue, we’ll discover that soon enough.”

“Hence, I prefer not to become entangled with his associates. Furthermore, Sixth Sister is still quite young and not yet suitable for engagement.”

When Qin Zhenzhen emerged from the study, Su Ning anxiously halted her and inquired,

“Third Sister-in-law, what did Third Brother say to you?” “Is Third Brother reproaching me for saving that young man?”

“Is that young man a good or bad individual?”

Qin Zhenzhen couldn’t disclose that the Crown Prince intended to harm the Third Prince. She could only offer her reassurance.

“Firstly, your third brother and I don’t blame you for saving him. Your decision to rescue him was justified.”

“Secondly, we can’t determine if that young man is good or bad just yet.”

“If he turns out to be a good person, your actions will earn you commendation for saving his life.”

“And if he isn’t a good person, you shouldn’t burden yourself too heavily. After all, there’s no visible sign on his forehead labeling him as good or bad.”

Su Ning’s tense expression softened somewhat.

However, she still clung to Qin Zhenzhen and refused to let go.

“Third Sister-in-law, do you think he’s a rapistl?”

In response, Qin Zhenzhen asked, “Do you think he appears to be one?”

Su Ning’s cheeks reddened a bit, but her tone remained resolute. “I don’t think he looks like one! How can someone so young be a rapistl?”

Qin Zhenzhen glanced at Su Ning and sensed that something was amiss.

Oh no, this is not good! It’s starting to align with the plot of the original book! Su Ning had fallen head over heels for the Third Prince at first sight, hence her fervent defense.

In the future, they would surely fall deeply in love with each other.

However, Chu Tiansheng, the official partner of the female lead in the original novel, had the protagonist’s aura and was destined to be with her. If Su Ning got involved, she might end up in a wretched state once more.

No, she needed to change course now.

Deliberately, Qin Zhenzhen disagreed with Su Ning. “That young man may be youthful, but the middle-aged man appears highly skilled in martial arts. He fits the profile and age of someone suspicious.”

As expected, Su Ning countered again.

“But I heard from those people that most criminals work alone. It’s unlikely for two individuals to collaborate, especially with such an age gap!”

“They also mentioned that the likelihood of that young man being the Third Prince is higher because the middle-aged man once claimed it. Sadly, no one believed him.”

Qin Zhenzhen was somewhat surprised. “Are you referring to the servants of the prefect’s household?”

Su Ning nodded. “They whispered it secretly and wouldn’t dare discuss it in front of their master.

“But I think they may have a point.”

Qin Zhenzhen had a headache. They had only met once, yet Su Ning was absolutely convinced that the Third Prince was a good person.

It was best to steer clear of this topic now.

Changing the subject, Qin Zhenzhen said, “Didn’t you want to know what your third brother said to me in the study?”

Su Ning was genuinely taken aback. “Did my third brother say something else?”

Qin Zhenzhen smiled and revealed, “The governor has taken an interest in you. He wants you to become his daughter-in-law.”

Su Ning was astounded. “Huh? Did my third brother agree to it? Did he?”

Qin Zhenzhen inquired, “Are you willing?” Su Ning responded hastily, “I’m not willing!”

“Why not?”

Su Ning’s expression soured, and she was almost in tears.. “I’m still so young! Why are they arranging a marriage for me?”
