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

Chapter 642 Gu Jinhe helps Xu Cheng take the position of housekeeper

Hearing Gu Jinhong's thanks, Gu Jinhe just said, "You are my brother, Qin Yi is my sister-in-law, why do you have to thank me when I give her something? Did you two agree to come and thank me today?"

Gu Jinhong really didn’t know that Qin Yi had already thanked Gu Jinhe, but it didn’t matter.

Gu Jinhong pushed the two plates of cake in front of him towards Gu Jinhe and Liu Shuya and said, "This is a cake specially made by a chef. It is absolutely clean and hygienic. You can all try some to see if it suits your taste."

Gu Jinhe picked up the spoon and took a bite. The cream melted in his mouth, and the aroma of milk filled his taste buds without being too sweet.

Liu Shuya, who was standing by, nodded after tasting it and said, "It tastes really good. Who ordered this from? I'll have someone order a small cake for me to taste tomorrow."

Gu Jinhong took out his phone and said, "I'll send you the owner's WeChat."

Liu Shuya: “Okay.”

Gu Jinhe put down the spoon after taking a few bites. Seeing this, Gu Jinhong asked, "Is it not to your liking?"

Gu Jinhe shook his head slightly: "I drank a few glasses of juice before, so I can't eat much."

When Gu Jinhong and Qin Yi were not here, most of the guests were hanging around her, some coming to chat with her and others coming to say hello. Before she knew it, she had drunk several glasses of juice, which she still hadn't digested.

After all, there were still guests in front, and as the protagonist of today, Gu Jinhong could not be absent for too long, so the three of them only chatted for a few words, and then Gu Jinhong got up and left.

After Gu Jinhong left, Gu Jinhe and Liu Shuya did not continue the previous topic. They had said everything that needed to be said. The most important thing now was to see the follow-up arrangements.

There is still one month left until Murong Qingming's 28th birthday. What Gu Jinhe needs to do is to help Murong Qingming fake his death and get away right under the noses of the Murong family.

When Liu Shuya left, she whispered to Gu Jinhe, "I will arrange what you just said. Don't worry, I will make sure it's foolproof."

If Liu Shuya's help was not needed, Gu Jinhe would not have involved Liu Shuya.

The marriage between the Gu and Qin families was a hot topic in the circle for a few days, but was soon quelled by another piece of news.

A few days after the engagement party, it started to drizzle, and there were occasionally one or two days of heavy rain. Even if you were holding an umbrella, your trouser legs and shoes and socks would get wet when you walked on the road.

There was a layer of shallow puddles on the ground, and rain water would splash out when you stepped on it.

On this day, Gu Jinhe walked towards Qinglan Courtyard holding an umbrella. It was time to put Xu Cheng's taking over the position of housekeeper on the agenda.

The old lady already knew the purpose of her visit. This time when they met, the old butler did not avoid her, but stood half a step behind the old lady, looking at Gu Jinhe with gentle eyes.

It seemed as if he was not angry at the fact that she wanted him to give up his position. Instead, he was happy to see it happen.

The old lady looked at Gu Jinhe standing in the hall with his back straight, and felt mixed emotions for a moment. She did not expect that this day would come so soon.

When she placed Xu Cheng next to Gu Jinhe, she had actually thought about this day, but she felt that it might take a long time.

I didn't expect it would take less than four years.

Gu Jinhe wanted to push Xu Cheng to the position of Gu family's housekeeper.

Although all this is a natural thing, Xu Cheng, like Gu Jinkuan, is a foregone conclusion that he will be the future steward of the Gu family.

But before that day comes, Xu Cheng can only be Gu Jinhe's personal butler. His position will always be lower than the old butler, and he will not have as much power as the old butler.

At the beginning, the old lady wanted to see how important Xu Cheng was in Gu Jinhe's heart, so important that she would compete with Gu Jinkuan for the position of heir in order for Xu Cheng to take the position of housekeeper.

However, no one expected that although Gu Jinhe did value Xu Cheng, she still did not want the position of heir. She returned the Gu family jade token to the second house. By doing this, she was telling other people in the Gu family that she did not covet the position of heir.

For Xu Cheng, Gu Jinhe went to find Gu Jinkuan, and now she comes to find her again, which shows that Xu Cheng is really important in her heart.

A housekeeper who can be valued by the heir is the most important to the Gu family. Although Gu Jinhe is not the heir of the Gu family, no one can shake her position in the Gu family.

Gu Jinkuan was even willing to let Xu Cheng stay with him because of Gu Jinhe's request.

Just a few days ago, Xu Cheng moved to Gu Jinkuan's yard. Even though Xu Cheng is still under house arrest and cannot leave Gu's house, he can let others come in to see him if he doesn't go out.

So during this period of time, Xu Cheng met a lot of people under the arrangement of the old housekeeper, who were all the Gu family's connections outside.

Now Xu Cheng is following Gu Jinkuan again, and Gu Jinkuan has also arranged for some of his connections to come to Gu's house to meet Xu Cheng.

In short, all signs indicate that Xu Cheng will soon take the position of Gu family's housekeeper.

Although the old lady was not the first one to know about this, she did not stop it after she knew it. Instead, she watched silently, watching how far Gu Jinhe could go for Xu Cheng.

Seeing it now, the old lady felt a little emotional. When the old butler was with her, he was already a steward. The old butler's son originally wanted to stay with Gu Chenjun, but Gu Chenjun refused, so he let the old butler's son go to Gu Chenxiang.

However, due to an accident, the old housekeeper's son died while trying to save Gu Chenxiang.

So the old lady has never really seen the succession to the position of housekeeper.

Now she has experienced it firsthand: her own granddaughter wants to dismiss her housekeeper and replace him with her own man.

It’s funny to say that she was the one who sent this person over personally.

However, the old lady, who had been prepared, did not think there was anything unacceptable. Compared to Gu Jinhe and Gu Jinkuan fighting for the position of heir, which caused unrest in the Gu family, this quiet inheritance of the position of housekeeper might be the best thing for everyone.

The old lady looked at Gu Jinhe with complicated eyes and said, "Are you so sure that I will help you?"

Gu Jinhe lowered his eyelids and said calmly: "You are not helping me, but helping the old housekeeper."

Gu Jinhe raised her eyes and looked at the old housekeeper standing behind the old lady. A smile flashed in her eyes: "This was allowed by the old housekeeper. Otherwise, Xu Cheng would not have been able to go to Big Brother's yard so smoothly."

The old lady said helplessly: "You are such a sly guy, you are good at acting first and asking for permission later. Aren't you afraid that I will regret it at the last minute?"

Gu Jinhe turned to look at the old lady and said seriously: "You won't, the old butler has been with you for decades, and Xu Cheng is his only grandson. Even if it's for the old butler, you will help me."
