B Correct answer
Explanation

The complete proverb is 'Least said, soonest mended' or 'Least said, soonest forgotten,' meaning keeping quiet about problems helps resolve/forget them faster. 'Soonest' is the correct superlative form. 'Least' would create 'Least said, least forgotten' which is redundant. 'Best' and 'never' don't fit this traditional saying.
