After all, he is not the real Murong Qingyang, so it is impossible to hold a birthday party. Once he shows up, he will definitely be exposed by the Murong family.

Since Murong Qingming was quite alert and cautious when he first entered the Murong family as Murong Qingyang, the people in the Murong family did not suspect anything about his refusal of the birthday party held by the Murong family.

I just thought that Murong Qingyang was worried about the Murong family and was afraid that he would be killed by them after returning to the Murong family.

Although he refused the birthday party, he could not stop Murong Qingxuan from taking action.

That day, Gu Jinhe quietly went out without disturbing the Gu family.

Due to the fighting among the eight great families in the past six months, very few children of the families have gone out. Even the cocktail parties and banquets that were often held on weekdays are no longer held. They are either going on business trips to other places or staying at home. For a while, the capital city was much quieter.

The Gu family also kept a much stricter watch over Gu Jinhe. Mainly because as long as Gu Jinhe left the Rose Courtyard, even if he was not heading towards the main gate, he would still meet someone from the Gu family along the way.

Either he would drag her to drink tea for half a day, or he would talk about topics that girls like, such as clothes, jewelry, etc.

It's okay once or twice, but after a long time even a fool would figure out something is wrong.

When Gu Jinhe met the Gu family for the first time, he knew what they were thinking.

Should we say it was Gu's family? The methods they came up with were exactly the same, having someone trip Gu Jinhe and not let her go out.

The Gu family knew that Gu Jinhe would not listen to them if they put her under house arrest, so they used artificial tactics to monopolize Gu Jinhe's time and not allow her time to go out.

So in the past six months, Gu Jinhe really hasn't left the house once. This is the first time since his rebirth that he has stayed in the Gu family for a long time without going out.

At first, the Gu family was worried that Gu Jinhe would be bored staying at the Gu family, so they specially invited a opera master to come and perform for her.

Gu Jinhe did not refuse the Gu family's kindness, but they didn't know that in his previous life, Gu Jinhe stayed in the Gu family for four full years and went out only a few times.

Therefore, these short six months were not difficult for Gu Jinhe.

But today is the day that Murong Qingxuan will take action, so Gu Jinhe has to go out.

After Gu Jinhe left, the old lady stood in the yard and looked up at the sky outside the courtyard wall. The expression in her eyes was complicated and no one knew what she was thinking.

The old butler stood behind the old lady in silence. The sun shone down from the sky, stretching the shadows of the two people very long.

As usual, Murong Qingyang will go to a western restaurant for dinner today. He comes here almost every month on this day.

Every time he comes here, he asks for the place to be cleared and only serves him as a guest in the entire restaurant.

So on this day, there were no other guests in the entire restaurant except Murong Qingyang.

People who were familiar with Murong Qingyang's itinerary also knew this, so there were no customers visiting the restaurant that day.

Since the place has been cleared, there is no need for Murong Qingyang to stay in the box. Every time Murong Qingyang came here, he would sit in the hall to eat.

The weather is very good today, the sun is shining brightly, and even though the wind is mixed with coldness, my body feels warm when the warm sun shines on it.

In the entire restaurant, Murong Qingyang was the only one sitting at the table eating, and there was not even a waiter.

The restaurant's speakers were playing soothing violin music, the sun was shining in from the windows, and even the dust particles floating in the air seemed to be dancing.

The tightly closed door was suddenly opened from the outside, and the carpeted floor made no sound even when stepped on.

Soon, a person in a wheelchair gradually approached Murong Qingyang's dining table.

At this time, Murong Qingyang was wearing a top hat and a white suit. He sat quietly in a chair, cutting steak with a knife and fork elegantly, as if he didn't notice the visitor.

Murong Qingxuan slowly parked his wheelchair opposite the dining table. He raised his eyes and looked at the person sitting opposite him who seemed unconscious.

After a while, seeing that the person opposite was still immersed in cutting steak, he said, "You are really brave. You knew I would come here today, but you still dared to come here alone to eat. Aren't you really afraid that I will kill you?"

The soothing violin sound seemed to come from all directions of the restaurant. The whole restaurant was so quiet, as if there was no one else but this sound.

After a long time, seeing that Murong Qingyang still didn't say anything, Murong Qingxuan frowned and said in a cold voice: "It seems that you are really not afraid of death, then I will send you off!"

"Can you at least wait until I finish this steak?" the person sitting opposite finally spoke.

But when Murong Qingxuan heard the voice, his face suddenly changed. He looked in disbelief at the person opposite who slowly raised his head.

The person with a cold look between his brows and a calm expression was clearly Gu Jinhe!

Murong Qingxuan said in a deep voice: "Where is Murong Qingyang?"

Gu Jinhe ate a piece of steak with a fork in his left hand before he spoke: "Where do you think he will be if I'm sitting here?"

Murong Qingxuan frowned: "Did he get killed by you?"

Gu Jinhe put down the knife and fork in her hand, raised her hand to take off the top hat on her head, completely revealing her face. She raised her eyes and looked quietly at Murong Qingxuan opposite her, and suddenly curled her lips and chuckled.

Murong Qingxuan frowned even tighter: "What are you laughing at?"

Gu Jinhe: "I'm laughing at you. I haven't seen you for a year, but you're still so stupid!"

Murong Qingxuan's expression suddenly changed immediately, and then he understood what Gu Jinhe said.

"Murong Qingyang is your man?"

"No, that's not right. Since he is from the Murong family, how could he possibly listen to you?"

Gu Jinhe: "It's true that he is from the Murong family, but why can't he listen to me?"

Murong Qingxuan: "Murong Qingming, who was working with you, is dead. Did this Murong Qingyang also work with you?"

Gu Jinhe: "Didn't you send someone to investigate half a year ago? Why haven't you come to a conclusion yet?"

Murong Qingxuan was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said, "No wonder the person I arranged that day never came back. It turns out that the person you went to meet that day was Murong Qingyang. Did you start working together at that time?"

Gu Jinhe shook his head slightly: "It will be earlier than you think."

Murong Qingxuan: "What do you mean by that?"

Gu Jinhe said calmly: "I don't want to talk nonsense with you. Didn't you come here today just to kill Murong Qingyang?"

"He is no longer in the capital. I am the only one who knows where he is. Your trip today was in vain."

Murong Qingxuan snorted coldly: "I really underestimated Murong Qingyang. I thought he was greedy for pleasure and would not leave the capital. I didn't expect that he had already left."

Gu Jinhe: "Now is the critical period for the seven great families to deal with the Murong family. You are still running away. Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to return?"

Murong Qingxuan's expression tightened, his pupils shrank, and he looked at Gu Jinhe warily: "You want to use me to threaten the Murong family?"

Gu Jinhe lowered his eyebrows and chuckled: "It's not stupid, is it not possible?"
