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

Xu Cheng seemed to have been in deep thought for a long time. When Gu Jinhe's gaze turned to him, he expressed his doubts without hesitation.

"Does the young lady like Mr. Fu?"

Gu Jinhe looked at Xu Cheng in surprise and asked with some confusion: "Why do you ask this question?"

Xu Cheng lowered his eyes. No one could see the emotion on his face at this moment. He only spoke in a low voice, "The eldest lady's attitude towards Mr. Fu has changed since she came back from Jiangcheng."

"I want to know whether you accepted Mr. Fu because he saved you, or... you really like him in your heart."

It seems that Xu Cheng has known about Fu Huaiyuan's feelings for Gu Jinhe for a long time.

In fact, as early as that night, during those nights when Gu Jinhe locked herself in the room and saw no one, when Fu Huaiyuan came to Gu's house with a food box and entered the door that had not been opened for several days.

Xu Cheng stood in the yard and looked at the lights in the room, and he knew it.

Knowing that Fu Huaiyuan cared about Gu Jinhe, I knew his deeply hidden feelings.

That night, he stood in the yard under the moonlight, staring at the room for a long time without leaving.

No one knows what he was thinking that night.

Xu Cheng's question made Gu Jinhe silent for a long while. When Xu Cheng's eyes lit up slightly, Gu Jinhe's answer made his eyes darken.

Gu Jinhe said softly: "The peace of mind he brings to me is something I have never seen in anyone else. Even if there is, it is not as much as he gives me."

Although Gu Jinhe's answer did not clearly indicate her feelings for Fu Huaiyuan, it undoubtedly acknowledged that Fu Huaiyuan was her fiancé.

This answer that is not an answer is the best answer.

In Gu Jinhe's heart, she has already acknowledged the engagement and can frankly express her feelings for Fu Huaiyuan.

The three people in the pavilion saw this change.

Xu Cheng lowered his head and stopped talking.

"Okay, all the questions have been answered, let's go back." Gu Jinhe stood up and said.

A few people walked on the path again. The moonlight cast their shadows obliquely on the ground, changing into multiple shapes with the shadows of the trees and the street lights.

Half a month after Gu Jinhe returned to the Gu family, the Gu family welcomed a special guest today.

In the living room of the Rose Courtyard, Gu Jinhe personally received this special guest.

Yang Xiu raised his eyes and looked directly at Gu Jinhe opposite him, with emotions in his eyes that others could not understand.

After a long time, Yang Xiu showed Gu Jinhe a gentle smile: "You should call me Aunt Xiuxiu."

There were only Yang Xiu and Gu Jinhe in the living room, and Yang Xiu seemed not to want to see anyone else except Gu Jinhe.

So Gu Jinhe did not leave any calligraphy or paintings aside with a cup of tea.

Gu Jinhe personally made a cup of tea, stood up and handed it to Yang Xiu with both hands: "Aunt Xiuxiu, please have some tea."

Yang Xiu's eyes instantly turned red. Her hands trembled slightly as she took the cup of tea. She lowered her head as if to cover up and whispered, "Okay, okay."

Two consecutive "OK"s seemed to be telling of the uneasiness and complexity in her heart at the moment.

Gu Jinhe glanced at her, sat down again, and poured herself a cup of tea. She held the cup for a long time without speaking.

The living room fell silent for a moment.

This time, except for the bodyguards who followed Yang Xiu, no other members of the Yang family came at the same time.

Gu Jinhe didn't know whether Yang Xiu refused or she went out this time without anyone else in the Yang family knowing.

Finally, Yang Xiu spoke first. Her eyes were fixed on Gu Jinhe for a long time, as if she was looking at someone's shadow through her.

Gu Jinhe didn’t know whose figure she wanted to see in her, but it definitely wouldn’t be herself.

This was the first time Gu Jinhe met Yang Xiu. She had never seen her before, not even in a photo, and there was no image of her in the old photos of the Gu family.

She didn't know whether it was there originally and then taken away, or whether it had never existed in the first place, but none of this mattered now.

Yang Xiu's appearance is just like her name, beautiful and gentle, and her face is much paler than that of ordinary people.

She had neat short hair that fell close to her ears, and the hair lay softly on her head. Her brow bones were slightly protruding, which made her eyes and eyebrows look even deeper.

Her eyes were clear and clean, like a pool of spring water, clean and clear.

It is said that eyes are the windows to the soul. Looking through these clear and clean eyes, it seems that nothing else can be seen.

Gu Jinhe could always see a familiar shadow between Yang Xiu's eyebrows, but for a moment he couldn't figure out who this familiarity looked like.

Maybe she looks like Yang Lin, no, according to the order, it should be Yang Lin who looks like her, after all, they are aunt and nephew.

Yang Xiu asked softly, "How have you been these years?"

Gu Jinhe curved his lips slightly and said, "My adoptive parents were quite strict with me. But if you think about it carefully, I have a place to live, food to eat, and a school to go to, which is better than other children without a home."

Yang Xiu's eyes were still red. She looked at Gu Jinhe and said, "Are the Gu family members good to you?"

Gu Jinhe's eyes turned slightly, and he said calmly: "They are all very good to me. During the days I returned to the Gu family, they have tried their best to compensate me, as if they feel they owe me a lot."

Yang Xiu's eyes showed some memories as she said, "In the blink of an eye, you have grown up so big. The little girl I could hold in my arms back then has now grown into a beautiful young lady."

It seemed that Yang Xiu was now reminiscing about the past days. Gu Jinhe put down the teacup in his hand and listened to her finish her words quietly.

Yang Xiu continued, "Your mother and I were always together when we were young. We read together, studied together, skipped classes together, and took punishments together. But she was always smarter than me and often received praise from the teachers. Even my brother would tell me to learn more from Yuanyuan and not always get him into trouble."

At the end, a smile appeared on Yang Xiu's face.

Gu Jinhe could tell that it was a sincere smile. She was lamenting the passing of time, or she was missing her mother, her childhood friend.

After a long while, Yang Xiu looked at Gu Jinhe and said, "I know you must be curious about why I came to see you."

Gu Jinhe nodded slightly: "I am indeed a little curious."

After all, it has been nearly a year since she came back. If he really wanted to see her, he could have met her earlier than when she came back.

But it happened at this time, which makes people think deeply.

Yang Xiu smiled bitterly: "Actually, I thought about coming to see you before the New Year, but Lin Lin attacked you on your way back from the Qin family banquet, which made it impossible for me to make this request. Sorry."

"I know that Lin Lin did this because of me. He was standing up for me."
