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

Gu Jinhe said calmly: "There are more than one knife hanging over my head, and I don't need this one."

Wu Lu: "What do you mean by that?"

Gu Jinhe: "You have too many questions. I don't want to answer any of them. Hang up now."

Wu Lu sighed, knowing that Gu Jinhe didn't want to talk anymore, and hung up the phone.

Not long after the call ended, the phone rang again.

After Gu Jinhe answered the call, a slightly childish voice came from the other end of the phone.

"aunt."

Gu Jinhe was stunned. She looked at the number displayed on the phone. It was her great uncle's. She thought it was her great uncle who called her. She didn't expect it to be Xie Hengzhi.

"Xiao Heng?"

Xie Hengzhi: "Aunt, it's me."

Gu Jinhe: "Is it summer vacation?"

Xie Hengzhi: "Yeah, just released."

"Aunt, can I come to see you?"

Gu Jinhe raised his eyebrows slightly: "Why did you come to see me?"

Xie Hengzhi paused before saying, "Aunt, are you very sad now?"

Gu Jinhe: "Why am I sad?"

Xie Hengzhi: "I know everything, so you don't have to hide it from me, aunt."

Gu Jinhe raised the corners of his lips and asked, "What do you know?"

Xie Hengzhi's clear voice came from the other end: "Aunt, if you are sad, I can lend you my shoulder to lean on."

Gu Jinhe moved the corners of her lips and suddenly smiled. She said softly, "Aunt is already an adult and doesn't need a shoulder to lean on. If you grow up well, that will be the best comfort for me."

Xie Hengzhi: "Okay, I understand."

This brief phone call left Gu Jinhe feeling emotionally turbulent for a long time.

Finally, the changes she made were not in vain.

As long as Xie Hengzhi is still alive, the Xie family will never break up.

The little nephew who she had never met in her previous life called her today to comfort her. Gu Jinhe found it a little funny, but also felt sad.

Even a child knew that she needed comfort, but no one in the Gu family thought of this.

Gu Jinhe put the turtle that was about to escape from his hand back into the small fish tank on the table.

Shuhua came over with some tea, glanced at the little turtle in the jar and said, "It's been a while since the ointment was applied, but why is there still a white spot on Xiaomu's back that hasn't been removed?"

Gu Jinhe: "Before, there were large areas of it, but now there is only this one area, which is almost good enough."

After hearing this, Shuhua thought about it and felt that this was true. Many white spots appeared on Xiaomu's back overnight, but now there are only a few left, and it has gotten much better.

Shuhua put the tea on the table, poured a cup of tea for Gu Jinhe, and said, "Miss, why do I feel that the recent trend is a little wrong?"

Gu Jinhe picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said, "Tell me how you feel."

Shuhua squatted on the ground, frowned and thought for a while, then said, “After the eldest lady went out, the children of the noble families all brought bodyguards with them when they went out.”

"After the old lady left, I felt that the day had become scorching hot."

In fact, the weather is getting hotter.

"But in the past, the children of noble families rarely brought bodyguards with them when they went out. In this territory of the capital, who dares to attack the children of noble families?"

I'm afraid he's tired of living and wants to be buried as soon as possible.

"Moreover, the old lady hasn't left the house for many years. I thought she would never go out, but I didn't expect her to go out every day in the past few days. Every time she goes out, she visits the heads of various families."

These were not secrets. The old lady did not hide her going out, nor did she conceal who she was going to meet.

So everyone in this circle knows where she went today and who she met.

No one knew what she talked about except the people she met.

However, the old lady's unusual behavior caused panic in the capital for a while, especially after she even visited the Yang family.

The weather in the capital is really going to change.

But how it will change and what it will become, no one knows.

Shuhua looked up at Gu Jinhe and said, "Miss, what do you think the old lady is doing?"

Gu Jinhe: "What do you think the old lady is doing?"

Shuhua didn't know that Gu Jinhe and the old lady had met once in the theater and had that conversation.

Shuhua hesitated and asked, "Forming cliques?"

Gu Jinhe chuckled: "In their position, some things don't need to be said, everyone will understand."

The most important thing is that the old lady came to visit in person, which is the crux of the matter.

Shuhua nodded as if she understood, "So the old lady just went out, and she didn't even have to say anything, but she was able to change some things, right?"

Gu Jinhe: "That's about what I mean."

Shuhua looked around. At this time, only she and Gu Jinhe were in the corridor. Xu Cheng went to see the old housekeeper, and Shumo was making snacks in the kitchen.

Shuhua lowered his voice and whispered, "Miss, do you think the seven great families will unite to fight against the Murong family?"

Gu Jinhe looked at Shuhua and asked, "What do you think?"

Shuhua thought for a moment and said, "I think it will happen. After all, the Murong family once attacked the seven great families, causing countless casualties."

"Although such hatred is no longer as strong as time passes, I believe that no one would refuse if there is a chance for revenge."

"The war is about to start. Will it be okay for us to stay in the capital?"

Gu Jinhe looked at the calligraphy and raised his eyebrows: "Start a war? This is not a war, what kind of war is it?"

Shuhua: "Miss, the noise from the eight great families fighting each other will definitely not be small, so what's the difference between this and going to war?"

After finishing speaking, Shuhua continued, "Although I have never seen the scene of the seven great families fighting against the Murong family together, there will definitely be casualties. This is no different from fighting a war, right?"

Gu Jinhe raised his hand and knocked on the glass fish tank, saying, "Sometimes wars don't necessarily cause much noise."

Shuhua looked at Gu Jinhe in confusion, not understanding what she meant.

Gu Jinhe said calmly: "War is like playing chess. You can only take action if you have a board and chess pieces."

"How can you play chess without a board?"

Shuhua frowned: "There are chess pieces but no board?"

Shuhua didn't understand the meaning of this sentence. If chess refers to the children of noble families, then what does this plate refer to?

Gu Jinhe explained in a low voice: "The board refers to the goal. The goal of the seven great families is to bring down the Murong family. However, this board is difficult to lay flat. If you put the chess pieces on it, they will slide and fall off."

Shuhua subconsciously said, "Then change the plate. There are many plates. You can draw one on any wooden board."

However, if the purpose is unstable, it will be difficult for this cooperation to last until the end.

Everyone understands this principle, so everyone knows it tacitly, but some things are not said out loud.

Shuhua finally asked, "Miss, do you think this game of chess can be finished?"
