Rebirth: Mr. Fu will not cancel the engagement this time

Chapter 209 Gu Jinhe's Alienation from the Gu Family

When Liu Shuqin left the Gu family, she still had a glimmer of hope in her heart, thinking that after all, she was her father's only daughter, and he would not really be so cruel as to treat her like this.

······

Gu Jinkuan looked at Gu Jinhe. Tonight in the hall, she only had a conversation with Ye Pingting and never looked at anyone in the Gu family from beginning to end.

As for Liu Shuqin being expelled from the Liu family, it was only because Gu Jinhe himself went to find the head of the Liu family that this result came about.

Does this mean that Gu Jinhe has begun to distrust the Gu family?

Or maybe even earlier, before they realized it, Gu Jinhe had gradually distanced himself from the Gu family.

Since she returned to the Gu family, all the injuries she had experienced, as long as they were related to the Yang family, the Gu family did not give a clear explanation. Although the Yang family gave a large sum of compensation, these expenses were nothing in the eyes of the aristocratic family.

It was Gu Feiwan who found Han Sheng, who was the reason why he was sent to prison. It was also Liu Shuqin who found the head of the Liu family, who was the reason why he was expelled from the family.

It was because she brought Liu Shuqin back for a face-to-face confrontation that Ye Pingting was punished by leaving the Gu family.

She retaliated in her own way against those who hurt Gu Jinhe, instead of leaving everything to the Gu family as she did before.

In just half a year, Gu Jinhe's trust in the Gu family changed, but it was not her fault.

Gu Jinhe was injured and hospitalized several times. Although the murderer behind the scenes was found in the end, the results were always inconclusive.

I guess if it were someone else, they would also feel disappointed, right?

Gu Jinkuan saw that Gu Jinhe's brows were full of alienation and indifference. At this moment he had to admit that she had really become estranged from the Gu family.

As early as the last family dinner, he discovered something was wrong, but he was afraid of breaking this thin membrane and making Gu Jinhe even more distant from the Gu family.

So he turned a blind eye and pretended not to see the change in Gu Jinhe. He had a vague feeling that he was not the only one in the Gu family who thought like this.

He vaguely felt that even the old lady and his father, the current head of the Gu family, seemed to think the same way.

But now Gu Jinhe no longer hides his true feelings towards the Gu family. He treats everyone in the Gu family with aloofness and indifference, as if he no longer cares about their opinions.

This was very different from when she first returned to the Gu family. At that time, Gu Jinkuan could clearly feel that Gu Jinhe treated the old lady and them in a friendly manner.

But later, gradually, no one knew what happened, Gu Jinhe slowly distanced himself from them.

The last time she came to see him was because she gave her mother's belongings to Gu Jinrong and asked him to find out the name engraved on the inside of the bracelet.

But now she seemed to have forgotten that her mother's belongings were still with Gu Jinrong.

Gu Jinkuan didn’t know whether she had really forgotten or had stopped believing them.

But now it seems that she didn't forget, but she really no longer trusts the Gu family.

This Gu family even includes himself.

Gu Jinkuan turned his head and glanced at the dark night outside, and said, "It's getting late, and Sister Jinhe should be a little tired. Why don't we all go back and rest early?"

Now that the matter has been resolved, the parties involved, Ye Pingting and Liu Shuqin, have both left the Gu family, and Gu Jinhe had just experienced a dangerous situation where he was almost kidnapped. Even if he didn't show any emotion on his face, he must be feeling a little tired in his heart.

A lot happened tonight, everyone needs to digest it.

And seeing that Gu Jinhe was so stingy as to not even give them a smile, if they stayed any longer, Gu Jinkuan was worried that she would say something shocking, so he decided to let everyone leave and go back to calm down.

No one had any objection to Gu Jinkuan's words, and it was really late, already past one in the morning.

Some people still have work to do tomorrow morning, and some even have matters that should have been dealt with tonight, but they were delayed because of Liu Shuqin and Ye Pingting.

Until everyone in the hall gradually left, the old lady and Gu Jinhe did not move.

Gu Jinkuan was the last one to leave. He came to Gu Jinhe, his brows softened, and he said softly, "Last time I told you that there will be an auction in the middle of the month and I will take you there. I will have someone come to customize a dress for you tomorrow. Just pick the style you like. I hope my sister can stun everyone by then."

Gu Jinhe looked at him silently, pursed his lips, and finally nodded and agreed.

Seeing this, Gu Jinkuan felt relieved. As long as he was not rejected in person, it would be fine.

After he left, only the old lady, Gu Jinhe, and Xu Cheng who was always guarding behind her were left in the hall.

Gu Jinhe just tilted her head slightly and didn't look at Xu Cheng, but Xu Cheng immediately understood what she meant.

He lowered his head slightly and silently left the hall, standing not far away but still looking here, as if as long as Gu Jinhe gave him a look, he would immediately come in and take her away.

The old lady glanced at Xu Cheng and said, "He is loyal, but is he worried that I might do something to you?"

Gu Jinhe said calmly: "I am me, he is him, I hope you don't implicate the innocent."

Implicate the innocent? The old lady's eyes narrowed slightly. She looked up at Gu Jinhe who was standing in the middle of the hall, and her tone became serious, "Is this who I am in your eyes?"

Gu Jinhe looked at the old lady without dodging or evading, and said calmly: "We agreed at the beginning that I would investigate the cause of my parents' death by myself, and you promised to let me do whatever I want in the Gu family and the capital."

The old lady said, "I have not forgotten what I promised you, and I will not go back on my word. Otherwise, I would not have let Fei Wan be taken away by Han Sheng, and I would not have let Ye Pingting divorce your fifth uncle. Although Liu Shuqin was expelled from the family because you contacted the head of the Liu family, it is undeniable that if you were not the eldest daughter of the Gu family, the Liu family would not have shown any mercy to Liu Shuqin."

If Gu Jinhe was not the eldest daughter of the Gu family, but just a girl born in an ordinary family, would the head of the Liu family still drive his own daughter out of the family for her?

The answer is obviously no.

Otherwise, why did the head of the Liu family never investigate Liu Shuqin after Liu Shuya committed suicide? He said that he was secretly investigating who was behind the scenes, but when he knew that this person might be Liu Shuqin, would the head of the Liu family continue to investigate?

If we had continued the investigation, perhaps what happened tonight would not have happened.

If the head of the Liu family was able to sacrifice his own relatives for the sake of justice, Liu Shuqin would not have reached this point today.

The world is unpredictable and no one can predict the future.

Even Gu Jinhe cannot guarantee now whether there is any wrong information in his memory of his previous life.
