Chapter 560: Keep it a secret



Su Qingluan watched Chen Zhi subconsciously protect Zhaodi behind him and nodded slightly: At least from the details, Chen Zhi now cares about Zhaodi. And Zhaodi is not submissive in front of Chen Zhi.

Once she was sure that the two of them had feelings for each other, she could then find an opportunity to implement her plan.

As for whether the relationship between the two of them would remain the same in the future, that was not something she could worry about - after all, she was not even sure whether she would change in the future, let alone the relationship between other people?

But it is obvious that what Chen Zhi said is right - Zhaodi cannot marry that old man, otherwise she will have a miserable end in the second half of her life.

Although Su Qingluan has no relatives or friends, she is still the emperor, the parents and the teacher. Apart from the emperor who is far away, she dare not have any hope before her parents. But isn't there still heaven and earth before the emperor?

Su Qingluan naturally had no way to really make strange phenomena appear in the heaven and earth, but she could still barely "play tricks"... Wait, what's going on over there?

Just when she was distracted for a moment, the scene opposite her had suddenly changed from "birds in pairs on the tree" to one almost "jumping into the clear pool" and the other "hanging themselves from the southeast tree".

What's going on with this miserable atmosphere?

"Hey, hey, what are you two doing with such sad faces?" Su Qingluan interrupted them speechlessly. "Chen Zhi, can you please stop saying things that are just wind and rain? I said you can't compete with that old man in terms of family background, but I didn't say that Zhaodi must marry with hatred!"

Then she turned around and looked at Zhaodi: "Silly girl, no matter what time it is, not being able to marry your beloved is not a big deal. You should always think positively."

"Than... for example..." As if she had found a guiding light in the confusion, Zhaodi raised her head and looked at Su Qingluan.

"Suppose, after you get pregnant, all of their family members suddenly die, and you take possession of all their wealth?"

Zhaodi: ...

Chen Zhi: ...

"Okay, I was just kidding," Su Qingluan clapped her hands casually, ignoring the stunned and speechless expressions of the two people opposite her. "But we can't just sit there and wait for death, right? There is still a way."

"What...what method?" Zhaodi looked at Su Qingluan, "Shopkeeper Su, you are not joking this time, right?"

"I wouldn't joke about such a big thing - although marriage shouldn't be everything in your life, it is indeed a very important thing." Su Qingluan's expression was very serious.

"So what is the solution?" Chen Zhi stepped forward.

Su Qingluan couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Why are you so anxious? If I tell you all my plans now, even if you don't care about anything for now, Zhaodi is so honest that she'll be tricked into telling you everything in just a few words!"

As she spoke, she glanced at Zhaodi with a look of disappointment.

Chen Zhi: ...He really has nothing to say about this.

Zhaodi is soft-hearted, gentle and considerate, but when facing the people around her, she can never hide her thoughts, and her thoughts can be easily discovered by others.

"But you are not keeping it completely secret from Zhaodi now." Chen Zhi asked doubtfully.

"Do you think Zhaodi has been able to completely avoid showing any other emotions since she and you have a mutual understanding?" Su Qingluan raised an eyebrow and looked at the two young people opposite. "I'm afraid she often experiences sweetness and loss, joy and sadness, right?"

According to Zhaodi's delicate mind, she likes Chen Zhi on the one hand, but she also understands rationally that the possibility of her marrying her ideal husband is very low. This kind of little girl's thoughts are probably often reflected on Zhaodi's face.

Zhaodi, whose thoughts were exposed, lowered her head in embarrassment at first, then raised her head in panic: "If that's the case, then what about my father and mother..."

"Don't worry, they must have noticed that something is wrong with you." Su Qingluan cut off Zhaodi's last bit of fantasy and said very rudely.

It's not like she had never come into contact with that couple before. Although they weren't very decent, they were very shrewd and mercenary. In comparison, Zhaodi was like a blank slate, free to be schemed by the couple.

Su Qingluan still doesn't understand why such a couple could raise Zhaodi, such a naive and sweet girl - oh, actually in a sense, Zhaodi is not stupid, she is just too kind.

All we can say is that good bamboo shoots come from bad bamboo.

Zhaodi became visibly depressed after hearing this. Chen Zhi quickly turned to Su Qingluan and asked, "Boss, what should we do?"

"No big deal, it's fine the way it is now." Su Qingluan shrugged. "Isn't this kind of anxiety and worry very similar to the mixed feelings before? You know I have a way, but I don't know what it is. Zhaodi will be looking forward to the future one moment and worried the next. This way I can definitely get away with it."

Su Qingluan's words left Zhaodi and Chen Zhi speechless. After all, what Su Qingluan said made so much sense. She had figured out the personalities of Zhaodi and her parents very thoroughly.

"Let's not talk about how to solve this problem for now. If you two succeed, how do you plan to thank me?" Su Qingluan asked in a teasing tone.

"I...we will definitely give you a big gift as a thank you for being the matchmaker!" Chen Zhi promised with a pat on his chest.

Zhaodi also nodded.

Su Qingluan scoffed at the words, "A big thank-you gift? How big?" Then she waved her hand, "Do I need your little money?"

If someone else said this, it might be bluffing or just a compliment, but Su Qingluan said it with confidence.

In fact, Su Guangfu and Yang of the Su family are both low-key and simple people. They also specifically told Su Qingluan that in order to prevent Su Xuanhe and Su Xueyan, who are still unstable, from developing arrogant and extravagant personalities, they must never let them know how much wealth the family actually has.

What's more, in the eyes of Su Guangfu and Yang, this money was basically saved by Su Qingluan alone, and in fact should be regarded as Su Qingluan's dowry when she gets married in the future.

The couple felt very guilty for not being able to provide their children with a good living environment. They absolutely could not allow their children to squander the money that Su Qingluan had worked so hard to earn.

Su Qingluan spent nearly one-third of her twenty-year life bedridden. Although she was rich in this life and felt at ease, she had already died once, so she no longer had any desire to show off her wealth. She just wanted to live a peaceful and healthy life.

That's why, although the Su family still looks like an ordinary farming family, if you have to say, their financial situation is comparable to that of a wealthy family.

Su Qingluan looked at the two people opposite her: "I want you to help me complete a task - of course, the premise is that you two can get married, otherwise I can't let you go on the road together, otherwise it will not sound good if the news gets out."

"On the road?" Chen Zhi grasped the key words. "Boss, is this place very far from here?"

"It's very far," Su Qingluan looked at Zhaodi, her words carrying a deeper meaning, "so far that even if parents wanted to send their married daughter back to visit her parents, it would be very difficult."
