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

I don’t know if Fu Huaiyuan has found any clues in the past two days. I hope he can be faster than the old lady.

If the murderer is someone else, that would be easy to deal with.

If it was really related to Ye Pingting, she just wanted to minimize the impact of this incident on the Gu family.

"Where is Xu Cheng?" Gu Jinhe asked.

Upon hearing this, Shuhua's expression paused. She looked at Gu Jinhe carefully, seeming to want to say something but stopped herself.

Gu Jinhe looked back at her and narrowed his eyes slightly: "What's wrong? What happened?"

Calligraphy and painting: "On the afternoon when the eldest lady was injured and hospitalized, the young master of the Xie family fell into the lotus pond..."

"What did you say?" Gu Jinhe sat up suddenly. She pressed her dizzy forehead and looked closely at Shuhua: "What happened to Xiaoheng?"

She clearly left someone by Xie Hengzhi's side, even the steady Shu Mo was left to him, so how could she fall into the lotus pond?

Seeing Gu Jinhe was anxious, Shuhua said quickly: "Don't worry, Miss, the cousin is a lucky man. Fortunately, Sister Shumo happened to go to find the cousin and found him falling into the lotus pond, so she jumped in and rescued him."

"The Xie family has called a doctor to see him. Fortunately, he was rescued in time. However, it is almost winter now and the water is cold. My cousin caught a cold and he was young, so he had a fever that day. But he should be better now."

Knowing that Xie Hengzhi had been rescued, Gu Jinhe was completely relieved. However, she frowned slightly and looked at Shuhua: "Since Xiao Heng has been rescued, what does this have to do with Xu Cheng?"

Why did she mention Xu Cheng, but Shuhua talked about Xie Hengzhi?

Shuhua lowered his head and dared not look at Gu Jinhe.

Sensing something was wrong, Gu Jinhe frowned and asked her, "Where is Xu Cheng?"

Shuhua knew that he couldn't keep this secret, so he could only bite the bullet and reply, "The old lady was furious when the eldest lady was injured. She investigated all the details of the attack that night and found out that the driver and Butler Xu were not by your side to protect you. The driver has been fired, and Butler Xu volunteered to accept the punishment."

"Butler Xu was punished by the old lady to kneel outside the Gu family temple and write scriptures. She also ordered that Butler Xu could leave only when the eldest lady woke up."

"How long did he kneel?" Gu Jinhe asked.

Shuhua replied, "It wasn't long after you were hospitalized, Miss. When I came, Butler Xu had already been called in for questioning by the old lady. It was probably around that time."

"So, Xu Cheng has been kneeling for two days and one night?"

"Today's daytime hasn't passed yet. If calculated this way, it should be one and a half days plus one night." Shuhua said.

What difference does it make?

I have been kneeling for so long and have to copy scriptures. I don’t know if there is any cushion under my knees, if someone can deliver my three meals a day, or if I can wear warm clothes at night when it’s cold.

"Ahem..." Gu Jinhe bent over and covered her chest with her hands and started coughing. Shuhua quickly stepped forward and gently patted her back: "Miss, what's wrong with you? I'll go call a doctor."

Gu Jinhe grabbed Shuhua's hand and shook his head slightly: "I'm fine. Tell the old lady that I woke up. I'm very worried about Xiaoheng. Ask the old lady to ask Xu Cheng to help me go to the Xie family to visit Xiaoheng, and then ask him to come to the ward to talk to me."

Shuhua nodded: "Yes, Miss."

Before Shuhua left, he handed Gu Jinhe's phone to her and said, "Butler Xu had someone give this to me when I came here."

Gu Jinhe turned on her cell phone. Perhaps the old lady had ordered that the Gu family was not allowed to disturb her rest. In the past two days, there were only a few messages of condolences in her cell phone. Even Ye Pingting sent a message.

Ye Pingting never leaves room for criticism in such trivial matters.

Gu Jinhe took a few glances and found an unfamiliar message.

"There are clues."

Gu Jinhe only took a glance at the message of four short words to know who sent it.

Gu Jinhe was the only one in the ward at that time. She called and after three or four rings, a deep and magnetic voice came from the other end of the phone.

"woke up?"

Gu Jinhe took a deep breath and said softly: "I just woke up and saw the message you sent. What's the clue?"

Fu Huaiyuan said in a deep voice: "Do you know the Yang family in the east of the city?"

Gu Jinhe's eyes turned cold: "In addition to the four great families in the capital, there are four other famous families with profound heritage and hundreds of years of inheritance. Their strength is not weaker than the four great families."

"Decades ago, the Yang family in the east of the city often walked in the gray forbidden area. In recent years, the new generation of the Yang family has gradually whitewashed the Yang family, but their methods are more ruthless than those of other families."

"The Gu family has done a lot of homework for you, right?" Fu Huaiyuan said.

Each family is passed down for several generations, or even dozens of generations. Each family will collect the preferences and methods of each person in power so that their descendants can learn from them.

In her previous life, Gu Jinhe studied for four full years, and in this life, she only needed one month to complete the coursework assigned by the old lady, all thanks to her good memory.

"The clues point to the Yang family in the east of the city?" Gu Jinhe's voice was a little cold.

Fu Huaiyuan: "My people found out that Yang Lin, the eldest son of the Yang family, appeared on that road that night."

"Based on these alone, we cannot conclude that the Yang family is the murderer behind the scenes." Gu Jinhe said.

There is no evidence. Even if Yang Lin really appeared on that road, it does not mean that he is the murderer. Anyone can walk on the public road.

We cannot conclude that the murderer is the Yang family just for this reason.

Moreover, given the Yang family's style of doing things, they have been cautious and careful for so many years. How could it be such a coincidence that Yang Lin appeared on the way to the crime scene?

"I found the truck driver and saw Yang Lin's car from his dashcam. The driver's phone has been destroyed and my people are repairing it."

Gu Jinhe knew that if he was not mistaken, the assassination should have been carried out by the Yang family.

It’s just that the time was advanced by four years, which was something Gu Jinhe had not expected.

Thinking back to her previous life when she was detained in the yard for teaching and studying, she had hardly left the Gu family’s gate for four years.

At that time, Gu Jinhe never went out all year round. Even if the Yang family wanted to kill her, they couldn't go to the Gu family and kill her openly.

Therefore, the assassination four years in advance was only because Gu Jinhe exempted four years of study time and left home early, which gave the Yang family the opportunity to take action.

"Is anyone from the Gu family involved in this?" Gu Jinhe asked.

“Not yet.”

After hearing this, Gu Jinhe probably had an idea in his mind. Ye Pingting should not have any involvement with the Yang family at this time.

So the mastermind was the Yang family, and the one who did it was Yang Lin.

"How do you plan to deal with this matter?" Gu Jinhe asked.

After all, Fu Huaiyuan also rode in her car that night, and he suffered both the car accident and the assassination attempt.

The Fu family will not let this go, and even if it is discovered that the matter is related to the Yang family, the Fu family will not let it go.

The voice on the other end of the phone was low and cold: "The only one who has the ability to compete with the aristocratic family is one with equal strength. If we don't want both sides to suffer losses, we can only pay a price to settle the matter."
