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

Smelling the increasing aroma in the air, Gu Jinhe watched Fu Huaiyuan flipping the roast chicken skillfully.

Gu Jinhe: "You...can do these?"

Fu Huaiyuan: "What?"

Gu Jinhe: "Can you cook?"

Fu Huaiyuan: "No."

Gu Jinhe glanced at the roast chicken in his hand. Fu Huaiyuan noticed her look and said, "When I was in college, one of my classmates' family ran a restaurant. I learned a little bit from that."

Since I didn't have any ingredients on hand, I simply roasted a plucked pheasant.

About half an hour later, Gu Jinhe looked at the chicken leg handed to him by Fu Huaiyuan and took it with some trembling.

Under Fu Huaiyuan's gaze, Gu Jinhe took a light bite. The taste was very light and a bit woody, and the outer skin was burnt and a bit crispy.

Fortunately it was cooked. Gu Jinhe thought that it shouldn't be a problem if he ate it...

Gu Jinhe glanced at Fu Huaiyuan, and seeing that he didn't eat, he asked, "Why don't you eat?"

"I don't eat chicken." Fu Huaiyuan said calmly.

Hearing this, Gu Jinhe looked a little stunned. She looked down at the chicken leg in her hand, not knowing how to start for a moment.

Fu Huaiyuan went out in the rain just to find food for her, but he didn't eat anything himself, causing him and her to suffer from the cold and hunger in this cave. At this moment, she felt a little guilty.

However, due to Xu Cheng's death in her previous life, she still hasn't gotten over it, so her attitude towards Fu Huaiyuan is somewhat complicated.

Sometimes she didn't know how to get along with him. When they first met at the hotel in Jiangcheng Service Area, she couldn't say a word.

After returning to the Gu family for some time, her mentality gradually calmed down. When they met in Canaan Temple, she was still able to face him with a calm mentality because most of her mind was on Xie Hengzhi at that time.

Gu Jinhe had never expected that she would be rescued in the warehouse in the end. She had thought about people from the Xie family and the Gu family, but she had never thought that it would be Fu Huaiyuan who saved her.

During the days she stayed in the hospital, Gu Jinhe wondered whether Fu Huaiyuan would come to see her.

But he didn't even send a greeting.

This made Gu Jinhe a little confused about this person. Did he save her unintentionally and didn't he ever think of asking her for any favor to offset it?

In fact, she had been prepared for Fu Huaiyuan to make demands on her during those days, but she didn't expect that even though she was ready, the other party had no intention of gaining any benefits.

Even the Gu family didn't know about rescuing her.

Did he save her just because of their engagement?

Just because she is his fiancée?

Then why did he help the Gu family when they were in trouble after their engagement was cancelled in the previous life?

Gu Jinhe really couldn't understand what Fu Huaiyuan was thinking.

With his ability, even if he loses the Gu family as an ally, it won't be a big loss.

Whether there is an engagement or not will not affect him.

So why did no one from the Fu family come to cancel the engagement during the twenty years that Gu Jinhe disappeared?

Gu Jinhe knew that it was definitely not because the Fu family did not want to lose the Gu family as an ally, or because they wanted to use the Gu family to dispel the ideas of other families?

At present, Gu Jinhe can only think that it is probably because of this reason, so her existence is just a shield.

"Why don't you eat it anymore? Is it not tasty?" Fu Huaiyuan asked when he saw her lowering her head but no longer touching the chicken leg.

Gu Jinhe collected his thoughts and looked up at him, shaking his head slightly: "Except for the lack of salt, everything else is fine, but I can't finish the rest."

Fu Huaiyuan knew that without salt, the roast chicken would be bland even if it was in its original flavor, so he did not persuade Gu Jinhe to eat more.

After Gu Jinhe finished eating a chicken leg, she threw the bone into the fire, looked at the rain still falling outside, and frowned slightly.

Fu Huaiyuan followed her gaze and asked after a while, "Are you worried about him?"

Gu Jinhe's eyes were filled with worry: "Such a long time has passed, and this mountain is so big, the chances of us running into them are slim. I hope they can avoid the killer and find their way back."

Gu Jinhe was worried about Xu Cheng, but she didn't know that Xu Cheng started looking for her after the gunshots disappeared.

In addition to worrying about enemies lurking in the dark, they were cautious and careful throughout the search.

The driver said to Xu Cheng, "It's raining now, let's find a place to hide. Young Miss has Master Fu with her, and he will definitely not let anything happen to her."

Xu Cheng seemed to be oblivious to what was said. He was soaked by the rain and walked with difficulty in the muddy woods. His head and face were wet from the rain, but he still kept looking for Gu Jinhe.

When he was in Canaan Temple, he was not with Gu Jinhe, which led to Gu Jinhe's disappearance and kidnapping.

This time he was clearly by her side, right in front of Gu Jinhe, but he still let her disappear.

Xu Cheng clenched his fists tightly. He was worried that something might happen to Gu Jinhe during the time they were apart. He was also worried that Fu Huaiyuan would not be trustworthy and would leave Gu Jinhe alone.

So after the gunshots disappeared, he kept looking for Gu Jinhe. He just wanted to find her as soon as possible and stay by her side.

He trusts no one but himself.

Gu Jinhe didn't know that Xu Cheng was outside in the rain looking for her. Maybe it was because she was not hungry, but she felt a little sleepy and her eyelids began to close uncontrollably.

After Fu Huaiyuan noticed her condition and saw that her clothes were almost dry, he walked over to her and sat down, holding her shoulders and said, "Gu Jinhe, don't sleep."

Gu Jinhe suddenly felt like laughing. She couldn't remember how many times Fu Huaiyuan had told her not to sleep.

In fact, she also smiled slowly. Although her face was pale at the moment, she was still bright and delicate when she smiled. In fact, because of her pale face, the cold temperament between her brows was weakened a bit, making her look even more frail and weak.

Fu Huaiyuan looked at the smile on her face, a dark light flashed across his eyes, and he asked in a hoarse voice: "What are you laughing at?"

Not sure if it was because the fever had lasted for too long, but his head started to feel dizzy. Gu Jinhe slowly leaned his head on Fu Huaiyuan's shoulder.

"I just find it a little funny. The eldest son and grandson of the Fu family, the next generation in power, what a precious status, but now he is hiding with me in this simple cave. The young master who has never done any housework roasted a chicken leg for me to eat. Should I feel guilty for troubling you to accompany me through this hardship?"

Seeing that she was so confused and talking nonsense due to fever, Fu Huaiyuan showed a helpless look on his face. He lowered his head to look at the little face leaning on his shoulder and called softly: "······Gu Jinhe".

Gu Jinhe put away the smile on his face, looked at the handsome face in front of him, blinked slightly, and murmured to himself in a low voice: "Actually, you are quite good-looking. I have only seen two good-looking men, one is you, and the other is——"

Gu Jinhe lowered his eyes and did not say the man's name.
