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

Chapter 55: Encounter with a Little Boy

After Xu Cheng came over, Gu Jinhe said to him, "Where's the thing I handed you before I got off the car?"

Xu Cheng glanced at the little boy and took out a pair of white jade peace locket earrings from his pocket. These were the ones that Gu Jinhe had taken off his ears before getting off the bus.

Gu Jinhe didn’t like wearing earrings very much. She was thinking about something when she went out this time, and she didn’t even notice when Shu Mo put them on her while she was dressing up.

Gu Jinhe handed the pair of earrings to the little boy: "It's a matter of reciprocity. You gave me a gift, so I should give you something in return."

The little boy didn't understand the value of the pair of white jade earrings, but he knew that the little rabbit he gave as a gift could not compare to this pair of earrings.

He shook his head and didn't take it. Instead, he looked up at Gu Jinhe and said, "I gave the little rabbit to you, little sister, because I like you, not to ask for a gift." There was a hint of grievance in his tone.

Gu Jinhe's expression softened, she squatted down and faced the little boy and said softly: "Sister gave you a gift because I like you. If you don't accept it, sister will be sad."

Hearing this, the little boy began to feel conflicted. He liked the little sister and didn't want her to be sad, but he also felt that it was wrong to accept the gift. He just didn't know how to express what he was thinking.

Gu Jinhe said: "You just said that the little rabbit was given to me by your mother?"

The little boy nodded. He ran to his mother and asked her to give the little rabbit to the little sister.

Gu Jinhe curved his lips and said, "Then this gift of mine is my return gift to the little rabbit your mother gave me. Did your teacher teach you that if someone gives you a gift, you should also give a gift in return?"

The little boy nodded hesitantly, but all he gave away at school were snacks.

Gu Jinhe placed the earrings in the little boy's hand and said, "This is a gift from my sister. You can't refuse it."

The little boy held the earrings in both hands, feeling a little overwhelmed. He didn't know if he had done something wrong. He looked at the earrings in his hands nervously. He just thought they were very beautiful. The white jade was bright and translucent, and very much like the earrings worn by the queens in the TV dramas his mother watched.

Gu Jinhe patted the little boy on the shoulder and said, "Go find your parents and stop running around."

The little boy looked at Gu Jinhe, then at the earrings in his hand, frowning. After a long while, he seemed to accept the gift. He nodded and said, "Thank you, little sister."

"You're welcome." Gu Jinhe slowly stood up and said with a smile.

After the little boy walked away, Gu Jinhe took Xu Chengshumo to stroll around the area. Shumo held a camera in his hand and took pictures of the nearby scenery, and sometimes he would also take pictures of Gu Jinhe's figure.

In one of the photos, Gu Jinhe lowered her head and smelled the fragrance of plum blossoms. Her eyebrows and eyes were like a painting. At that moment, at that instant, Gu Jinhe exuded a unique graceful beauty.

It's stunning and thrilling.

After Gu Jinhe walked around the entire plum garden, she came across calligraphy and painting on the way. She was standing behind a plum tree taking pictures.

Shu Mo frowned and stepped forward to hold her back: "Although it was the eldest lady who brought us out to play, you should not forget your identity and stop fooling around."

Shuhua felt a little aggrieved, as she had only been able to play with the eldest lady's consent.

Shu Mo was a little helpless when she saw her aggrieved look. She took Shu Hua's hand and walked towards Gu Jinhe: "From now on, stay with the eldest lady obediently and don't go anywhere."

Although Shuhua felt aggrieved, she also knew what was right and wrong. She obediently did not refute and was obediently pulled by Shumo to follow behind Gu Jinhe.

Gu Jinhe looked back and knew from Shuhua's expression that she was pulled back forcefully. She curled her lips slightly. Shuhua was a simple and lively person, and she might be a little bored staying in Gu's house.

Time passed slowly, the sun rose gradually, and the temperature became higher and higher. Gu Jinhe raised his hand to block the dazzling sunlight.

Xu Cheng noticed her movements and said, "There is a pavilion ahead. There will be some performances inside. It will take about ten minutes to walk there. Miss, do you want to go and take a look?"

Gu Jinhe nodded slightly. She had already visited the entire plum garden and was aesthetically fatigued after seeing so much.

Xu Cheng led the way in front, followed not far behind by ten bodyguards. These bodyguards were veterans, some of their habits were ingrained in their bones, their actions were all in unison, and they looked very imposing.

There were also some tourists following behind, mainly attracted by the bodyguards' aura.

Xu Cheng looked back and Gu Jinhe said to him, "Ignore it."

Soon they arrived at the door of Wangting Pavilion, which was also crowded. Xu Cheng was leading the way for Gu Jinhe in front. It was obvious that he had arranged everything in advance.

After Xu Cheng brought Gu Jinhe into Wangting Pavilion, they walked towards a row of empty seats in front of the stage. This was the seat Xu Cheng had reserved in advance.

Shuhua and Shumo were sitting on Gu Jinhe's left and right. Xu Cheng was sitting next to Shumo. Shuhua looked at the staff on the stage who were preparing knives with bright eyes.

Soon the whole hall became dark, with only the light above the stage being the brightest.

From the dark corner of the stage, a young woman in ancient costume, with a bun and delicate makeup walked out. She held an oil-paper umbrella in her hand and slowly stretched her body to dance to the classical music. Her posture was graceful and her dance was moving. It was obvious that she had been dancing for many years and had a solid foundation.

Gu Jinhe sat below and watched quietly, while the calligraphy and painting beside him would exclaim from time to time, praising the dance.

Shuhua did not notice Shumo's gaze in the darkness. She covered her chest with her hands and looked at the woman dancing on the stage with infatuated eyes, saying "she is so beautiful" three times.

They sat in the first row, with the lights from the stage shining down on them, making their figures vague and not very obvious.

Xu Cheng just watched quietly, no emotion visible on his face, but from the way he looked around from time to time, one could see his caution.

After the woman on the stage finished dancing and went down, before Shuhua could feel disappointed, a handsome man dressed as a scholar came up.

The man stood in the center of the stage, holding a book in his hand and reciting a poem. His pronunciation was clear and his voice was vigorous, which easily brought people into the situation he described.

Next there were people playing the guzheng, pipa and singing. The performance was wonderful and the sound from the speakers on both sides of the lobby was loud and vibrating.

The show ended after nearly an hour, and the next one would have to wait half an hour to open.

The lobby lit up again, and Gu Jinhe stood up and said, "Okay, today's tour ends here."

After watching so many wonderful performances, Xu Cheng's cheeks flushed with excitement. He followed behind Gu Jinhe and said, "It's time for lunch. I have booked a private room in a restaurant on the street not far from the Plum Garden. Miss, do you want to go eat first?"

Gu Jinhe walked out of Wangting Pavilion Station, looked at the bright sun at the door, and watched the crowd retreating. The morning passed very quickly.

Gu Jinhe walked down the stairs and said, "Let's go eat first."
