When the struggle between the seven great families and the Murong family was the most intense, Gu Jinhe asked Dr. Yan to stay in the Gu family.

Han Sheng is a policeman himself, and he also joins the action against the Murong family.

In the last two months, the fact that Murong Qingxuan disappeared could not be concealed. No one knew who leaked it.

Murong Qingxuan was the heir that the Murong family had carefully cultivated for thirty years. However, after he went missing, instead of looking for him immediately, they still had the energy to fight against the seven great families.

He didn't seem to be worried about Murong Qingxuan's safety.

On the second day after the news of Murong Qingxuan's disappearance spread wildly in the outside world, Yang Xiu came to Gu's house.

Now that the seven great families were in alliance, it was not appropriate for the Gu family to make things too embarrassing, so Gu Jinhe asked someone to invite Yang Xiu in.

But he did not let Yang Xiu go to the Rose Courtyard. Instead, he picked up Yang Xiu in the hall in the front yard.

Due to the distance, Yang Xiu arrived at the front yard hall before Gu Jinhe, and Xu Cheng was already waiting there.

Yang Xiu sat on the chair, looking at Xu Cheng pouring tea for him, with a faint smile on his face: "Long time no see, Butler Gu."

There was a pause in the tone of Butler Gu's voice, which carried some inexplicable meaning.

It was because Yang Qiao bit Xu Cheng that Gu Jinhe pulled out a piece of his scalp and then kicked him unconscious.

So when Yang Xiu saw Xu Cheng again, it was hard for him to have any good feelings.

However, Xu Cheng turned a deaf ear to him. After pouring the tea, he stepped back and stood behind the main seat. He stood there with an upright posture and back, looking fixedly in the direction of the door.

Seeing that Xu Cheng ignored her and his expression remained unchanged, Yang Xiu lowered her head and looked at the tea on the table. The swirling white mist diluted the fleeting hostility in her eyes.

The atmosphere in the hall was so silent that you could hear a pin drop. Neither of them spoke a word, as they were both waiting for the arrival of the other protagonist.

When Yang Xiu's cup of tea was no longer hot, Gu Jinhe came slowly.

Yang Xiu tilted his head and saw Gu Jinhe wearing a moon-white cheongsam, her hair tied behind her head with only a jade hairpin, and a emerald green bracelet on her wrist. Her clear eyebrows and eyes were indifferent, and her face was expressionless, with no sign of joy or anger.

Yang Xiu was a little dazed for a moment, and for a moment her consciousness seemed to have returned to more than 20 years ago.

Once, Lu Yuan also wore a moon-white cheongsam, which set off her slender waist and smooth skin. Everyone who saw her was amazed.

She was exactly the same as Gu Jinhe at this moment, except that Gu Jinhe's temperament was a little colder than Lu Yuan's, and the two looked only 30% similar, so it was easy to tell them apart.

After Gu Jinhe came in, she glanced at Xu Cheng, who nodded to her imperceptibly. After Gu Jinhe sat in the main seat, she tilted her head to look at Yang Xiu who was sitting on her right, and asked calmly, "Ms. Yang, what are you doing here at our Gu's house?"

When Murong Qingxuan attacked Gu Jinhe that dark night, Yang Xiu was watching from above. The only thing left for the two of them to do was to fall out with each other.

"You call me Ms. Yang?" Yang Xiu looked at Gu Jinhe: "I still prefer you to call me Aunt Xiu."

Gu Jinhe glanced at her, his eyes showing no emotion: "Ms. Yang, let's get straight to the point. What are you doing here at the Gu family?"

Yang Xiu looked at Gu Jinhe deeply, and seeing that her expression remained indifferent, he restrained the slight smile on the corners of his lips. Her previously clear eyes and brows now carried a hint of murderous intent.

Yang Xiu: "Murong Qingxuan is missing. Do you know about this?"

"This is the third time." Gu Jinhe said suddenly.

Yang Xiu was stunned: "What?"

Gu Jinhe: "Do you remember when you first came to Gu's house to see me?"

Yang Xiu's face darkened and he said nothing.

Gu Jinhe: "It was when Murong Qingxuan almost died in my hands."

Without waiting for Yang Xiu to respond, Gu Jinhe spoke again: "The second time was when I crippled Murong Qingxuan's limbs."

Gu Jinhe raised the corner of his lips and said indifferently, "The third time was after Murong Qingxuan disappeared."

"Every time it's related to Murong Qingxuan, it seems that Ms. Yang really values ​​this son."

A hint of displeasure flashed across Yang Xiu's eyes, and she said in a deep voice: "So, you admit that Murong Qingxuan is in your hands?"

Gu Jinhe: "I'm very curious, why did you suspect me first when Murong Qingxuan disappeared?"

Yang Xiu: "Because my son is too obsessed with the Murong family, he values ​​that position too much, and he wants to remove all those who stand in his way to that position. He must have disappeared after December 12, which is Murong Qingyang's birthday. With his personality, he will definitely take action himself."

"That's when you took the opportunity to kidnap him, right?"

Although this last sentence was a question, Yang Xiu's tone was that of a statement, as if he already knew the truth of the matter.

Having said that, there was no need to be hypocritical. Gu Jinhe turned the green bracelet on his wrist, glanced at Yang Xiu, and said indifferently: "He gave it to me himself, so how can I not accept it?"

Yang Xiu couldn't help but turn her gaze to the green bracelet on Gu Jinhe's wrist. At first, she didn't take it seriously, but after taking a closer look, her expression changed and she suddenly asked, "Where did you get this bracelet?"

Gu Jinhe raised her eyebrows slightly, a little surprised. She didn't care about her son, but cared about the origin of a bracelet?

She was a little confused about Yang Xiu's true thoughts. Was he deliberately changing the subject, or was Murong Qingxuan not as important to Yang Xiu as she imagined?

Gu Jinhe: "This is a relic my mother left me."

Yang Xiu's eyes were fixed on the bracelet, and his expression kept changing: "Impossible, how could this be Lu Yuan's?!"

Gu Jinhe tapped the jade bracelet lightly with his index finger, and two crisp sounds rang in Yang Xiu's ears.

Yang Xiu's expression suddenly became quiet, and then she quickly restrained all the emotions on her face, as if the loss of control just now was just an illusion.

Gu Jinhe: "My mother's name is engraved inside this jade bracelet. It's not hers, could it be yours?"

Yang Xiu was stunned for a moment: "Is Lu Yuan's name engraved here?"

Then she quickly asked, "Is it just Lu Yuan's name? Are there any others?"

Gu Jinhe: "Are you asking who gave this jade bracelet to my mother?"

Yang Xiu nodded slightly: "Look at this jade, it is top quality and worth a lot of money. I am very curious about who gave it to her more than 20 years ago."

Gu Jinhe: "Why can't it be given by my father to my mother?"

Yang Xiu turned his gaze to Gu Jinhe's face and said in an ambiguous tone, "If this was given to your mother by your father, you would have said it was a relic your father gave to your mother, not a relic your mother left for you."

Gu Jinhe turned the green bracelet on his wrist and suddenly said, "I'm curious about one thing. What is your purpose in coming here?"
