Ye Feiran was about to kneel, but Su Binglan quickly stopped her, saying, “There’s no need for that, Feiran. We’re all on the same side, okay? Only a few know my identity. I told you about it because I wanted you to stop worrying.
“It also means that Wenwu is no longer an ordinary person. Since I’m a princess, that makes Wenwu a prince. The Ye family won’t dare to act so recklessly.”
Su Wenwu was so shocked that he struggled to return to his senses. He even thought he was hallucinating.
‘Did Sister say she’s a princess? Th-that makes me a prince!’
His heart raced and almost pounded out of his chest. He was in utter disbelief and could not help but ask, “Sister, is it true?”
Su Wenwu even pinched himself and realized it hurt. Indeed, he was not dreaming. Meanwhile, Su Binglan said smilingly, “It is, Wenwu. Still, we must not be arrogant with our identities. We must continue living our daily lives. You mustn’t let your identity as a prince go to your head.”
Su Wenwu nodded thoughtfully. “I know, Sister.”
He became even more aware of his responsibilities with this identity. He felt he had to do even more to help the people. He also wanted to help Su Binglan even more because she was the princess.
The people of the North already knew that Su Binglan was the princess, but the Southerners knew little about it. After all, the South was far away from the capital.
Even so, they knew Su Binglan of the Su family had developed many things such as dumplings, hotpots, kebabs, wine, juice, and many other things. They also knew that the northerners had grown high-yield crops.
Everyone felt affiliated with Su Binglan. Although the Southerners had not met Su Binglan before, they always considered her the people’s guardian angel. Although the commoners never said it, they loved Su Binglan.
Perhaps no one would have expected Su Binglan to become a princess, not even Ye Feiran. Therefore, the latter was shocked when she heard the news. Ye Feiran thought her family was only business people, and their status was nothing compared to Su Binglan and her family.
After all, the Su family had become royalty. Even if Ye Feiran became the head of her family, she would still look up to the Su family. She thought her family would be thrilled if they knew about it.
Even if the Ye family found out that Ye Feiran had disguised herself as a man, they would have to be respectful toward her. That was because she had the princess’s support.
Ye Feiran was so excited that she could not speak. However, she feared that Su Wenwu would look down on her with his new status.
Su Wenwu seemed to have guessed her worries and held her hand tightly, saying, “Don’t worry, Feiran. I’m still me.”
Ye Feiran was relieved to hear that. She felt he had an excellent character when she first met him. Su Wenwu had many shining points that impressed Ye Feiran.
“Feiran, my family and I are the same as before,” Su Binglan said, “You can go back and stay with Wenwu whenever you want to. My parents miss you, too, you know.
“Once we settle your family’s matters, my parents will visit yours to propose marriage for Wenwu.”
Ye Feiran was relieved to hear that. Although the Su family’s status had skyrocketed, they did not change how they treated her. Ye Feiran felt warm and touched.
After discussing the Ye family, Ye Feiran decided to reveal her identity as a woman to them. She would see their reaction to it first before relying on Su Binglan and Su Wenwu to step in. By then, things would be easy to resolve.
After some thought, Su Binglan asked, “Feiran, who is Ye Shishan to your family?”
Ye Feiran raised her brows. “He’s the second uncle of my second grandfather’s family. My second grandfather is now the family’s great elder.”
Su Binglan had a rough understanding of something when she heard that. Meanwhile, the clever Ye Feiran also realized something and asked, “Is there something wrong with my second uncle?”
“Just be careful around him. I’ll arrange for a guard to protect you when you visit your family.” Su Binglan clapped, and Su Shijiu appeared beside Ye Feiran.
Su Binglan told Su Shijiu, “You will disguise yourself as a maid and protect Feiran.”
“Understood, Master.”
Ye Feiran was stunned when she saw the young lady. Su Shijiu was so quiet that Ye Feiran did not even notice she was around. Ye Feiran could tell that Su Shijiu was a formidable martial artist.
“You won’t be in danger with Shijiu beside you.”
Ye Feiran nodded. “I shall do as you say, Binglan.”
She believed in Su BInglan but could not trust the Ye family. Ye Feiran could not even trust her family’s guards because she almost died, even when they were around to protect her. Back then, Su Wenwu was the one who appeared and protected her.
Ye Feiran could tell that Su Binglan’s subordinates were much more skilled than the Ye family’s guards.
The following morning, Ye Feiran visited her family with guards disguised as maids. Su Wenwu’s eyes were full of worry when he sent Ye Feiran to the door. Ye Feiran said, “Don’t worry. We must trust your sister’s arrangements.”
Su Wenwu nodded. “Remember to send a signal flare if there’s a problem.”
Su Binglan had given Ye Feiran a signal flare for her to use if she encountered any issues with the Ye family. Su Binglan would then appear at the family’s house when she saw the signal.
“Of course, Wenwu. I remember everything Binglan said.” When Ye Feiran approached the house, she noticed the streets were under strict watch. It seemed the guards were patrolling and investigating something.
Ye Feiran became wide-eyed, wondering what her family was investigating. She even suspected they were looking for someone.
After walking away from the entrance, Su Wenwu told Su Binglan about the situation, “Sister, I saw guards patrolling outside the house. The lineup isn’t small, either. Those men look like they’re from the Ye family. I overheard them saying they’re hunting down assassins.”
“Don’t worry. The guards can’t find us here,” Su Binglan said indifferently, “Someone should be waking up soon.”
Su Wenwu did not realize what his sister meant until later. He wondered if the assassin was in the family’s residence. “Sister, someone must’ve broken into their house.”
Su Binglan smiled. “You don’t have to worry about that, Wenwu.”
She had already set up a protective barrier so the guards would not notice them.
