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

It was drizzling that day, and Shuhua was bored and sat in the corridor playing tumbling rope with Shumo.

Gu Jinhe sat aside reading a book, and the gurgling sound of boiling water in his ears drowned out the light sound of rain outside.

After playing for a while, Shuhua turned the rope into a tangled mess, so she simply put the rope aside and stopped playing.

She sat down at the kettle and started making tea.

Seeing that Shuhua had lost interest, Shumo picked up a book and read quietly.

In the misty courtyard, the occasional sound of flipping books and the faint clatter of tea sets could be heard, and the faint scent of tea slowly rose in the air.

The peaceful and comfortable scene in the corridor was broken by the sound of hurried footsteps.

The person didn't have an umbrella, and his hair, face, and clothes were all wet with rain.

Gu Jinhe looked up, a little surprised: "Second brother?"

She had never seen Gu Jinrong like this before. His face was pale and there was an inexplicable heaviness in his eyes.

Shu Mo went to get a clean towel and handed it to Gu Jinrong, asking him to wipe the rain off his body.

Shuhua silently brewed a cup of hot tea and placed it in front of him.

Gu Jinhe put down the book and looked at Gu Jinrong, asking, "Did something happen?"

He came here in such a hurry that he didn't even open an umbrella.

Gu Jinrong looked at Gu Jinhe without saying a word for a long time. His brows looked a little tired, and there was also some complicated sadness.

Gu Jinhe raised his eyebrows slightly and waited quietly for his answer.

Seeing that the two had something to say, Shumo and Shuhua retreated, and for a moment, they were the only two left in the corridor.

It was drizzling outside, but the corridor was quiet and peaceful. The moist water vapor in the air was accompanied by the fragrance of tea.

After a long while, Gu Jinrong slowly calmed down his expression and asked in a deep voice, "When did you know?"

Gu Jinhe frowned: "What?"

A dark color flashed across Gu Jinrong's eyes: "When did you know about uncle's matter?"

Gu Jinhe was still a little confused: "What's going on with my father?"

Gu Jinrong looked at her closely, the sadness between his brows becoming more obvious. He whispered, "His life experience..."

Gu Jinhe was stunned. She raised her eyes to look at Gu Jinrong, and when she saw that his expression did not seem fake, she sighed in her heart.

I have long known that my second brother is the most perceptive person in the Gu family, but I didn't expect that he would discover her and my father's background so quickly.

Gu Jinhe did not hide it and whispered a brief explanation of Ge Daqiang's words on Dahu Mountain.

Gu Jinrong's eyes flashed with distress. He looked at Gu Jinhe and said, "So you fainted at that time because you knew about this matter, so you had heart pain?"

Gu Jinhe lowered his eyes but did not deny it, even though it had been a long time ago, and he still remembered it now.

Gu Jinhe can still recall the pain in his heart and how heart-wrenching it was.

Gu Jinrong's expression gradually calmed down. She looked at Gu Jinhe and said seriously, "No matter what, you are my sister, and I will always be your brother."

Gu Jinkuan had expressed this implicitly when he woke up in the hospital, but he had not said it as clearly as Gu Jinrong did now.

For some reason, Gu Jinhe felt her eyes become a little sore. She took a deep breath, looked at Gu Jinrong and smiled, "Thank you... Second Brother."

Gu Jinrong raised his hand and gently rubbed her hair, and said softly: "What nonsense are you talking about? This is what I should do. You don't have to say thank you to me."

After Gu Jinrong calmed down, he asked, "The Murong family doesn't have a very good reputation in the eyes of the aristocratic families. Since you already know about this, you should also be clear about this matter. How do you plan to deal with it?"

Gu Jinhe lowered his eyelids: "Let's take it one step at a time."

Gu Jinrong knew that Gu Jinhe had not told him the truth. He did not believe that after knowing this, and knowing that the root cause of his parents' death was the Murong family, Gu Jinhe would remain indifferent.

This is not her usual style.

Gu Jinrong was sensitive and he could clearly feel a flash of hatred in Gu Jinhe's eyes when he mentioned the Murong family.

This shows that after knowing the truth about his life experience, Gu Jinhe would definitely not do nothing.

A lot of arrangements may have been made during this period of time. Wu Lu is not at Gu's house all day, and sometimes he goes out and is not seen for a week or two.

No one knew where he went or what he did.

Now that I think about it, I should have done something more secretive for Gu Jinhe.

There is no need to guess, everyone knows that the purpose of doing all this is to take revenge on the Murong family.

However, the Murong family rose to prominence earlier than other families. No one knows how many tricks and evil spirits they have.

I only know that over the years, I have been able to live a peaceful and stable life in the capital without being disturbed by the outside world.

But no one outside knows what dirty deals the Murong family has done behind the scenes.

Gu Jinrong said: "This matter is related to Madam Ye, right?"

Ye Pingting has divorced Gu Chenliang and can no longer use her husband's surname, so now when people mention Ye Pingting, they call her Mrs. Ye.

Gu Jinhe neither admitted nor denied it, but just asked: "Why would Second Brother have such an idea?"

Gu Jinrong: "You and she both showed it very clearly. Madam Ye doesn't like you, and you don't like her either."

Gu Jinhe did not deny this point. It was a fact that everyone saw, and there was no need to deny it. It was just that everyone had pretended to be ignorant even though they knew the truth.

"Is it because of the jade bracelet?"

Gu Jinrong asked as if he had thought of something.

Everyone in the Gu family knew that the jade bracelet was taken from Ye Pingting's wrist. Although she gave it to Gu Jinhe personally, it was Gu Jinhe who asked for it in the first place.

Last time, Gu Jinhe took the jade bracelet and asked Gu Jinrong to investigate the name inside it. He found it out, but chose to conceal it because he was worried that Gu Jinhe would rashly find Murong's family.

But when he learned about Gu Jinhe's life experience, he realized that hiding the truth would cause her the greatest harm.

That's why he rushed back as soon as possible even though it was raining.

Gu Jinrong said sincerely: "Jinhe, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have kept it from you before."

I guess Gu Jinhe must have been very sad at that time, right?

I clearly found out whose name it was, but I chose to conceal it.

Now that he knew that Gu Jinhe had known the truth for a long time, Gu Jinrong felt more and more guilty and self-blamed.

Gu Jinhe curved her lips slightly and said, "Although I understand your original intention, it is still very uncomfortable to be kept in the dark."

The distress in Gu Jinrong's eyes deepened, and he said, "No, Second Brother will not hide it from you anymore."

Gu Jinhe smiled and said nothing.

Gu Jinrong seemed to have thought of something, and his expression gradually became serious: "Regarding the matter of the Qing generation, this matter must be resolved, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

Which of the winners of the Qing generation competition in the Murong family does not have blood on his hands?
