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

Chapter 680 Gathering at the Foot of the Mountain

Among the seven aristocratic families that participated in the encirclement and suppression of the Murong family, almost every family had direct descendants present.

Xie Hengzhi was not yet an adult, and the one sent by the Xie family was a member of a branch of the family.

The ones who came from the Gu family were Gu Jinrong and Gu Jinhe, and the one from the Fu family was Fu Huaiyuan.

The one who came from the Wu family was Wu Lu, and the one who came from the Liu family was also a member of a side branch. Although Liu Shuya could use a gun, her shooting skills were not very good, and she also had a daughter who was less than one year old. Even if she wanted to come, the Liu family would not allow her to take the risk.

The one who came from the Qin family was Qin Xu, and the one who came from the Yang family was Yang Xiu, so it could only be her who came.

She is the only head of the Yang family now, without even a side branch.

The moment he saw Gu Jinhe appear, a hint of resentment flashed in Yang Xiu's eyes.

As if he felt her gaze, Gu Jinhe looked towards Yang Xiu's position. The two of them looked at each other across a gap of several people. Suddenly, the corners of Gu Jinhe's mouth curled up slightly.

Yang Xiu quickly suppressed the emotions in his eyes and turned his wheelchair towards Gu Jinhe.

At this time, this place was still at the foot of the mountain and the terrain was flat. Although Yang Xiu was sitting in a wheelchair, he was still able to move freely.

Gu Jinhe whispered a few words to Gu Jinrong beside him. Gu Jinrong glanced at Yang Xiu who was approaching and said, "Come to me if you have anything to say."

Gu Jinhe was a little amused: "There are so many people here, what can she do to me?"

Gu Jinrong didn't say anything, but when Yang Xiu was about to approach, she turned around and left.

But before leaving, he left half of the people he brought with him, and had them stand around Gu Jinhe not too far away, so that if there were any unusual movements, they could ensure that Gu Jinhe would be protected at the first moment.

Yang Xiu came to Gu Jinhe and looked at the bodyguards protecting Gu Jinhe. His tone was unremarkable: "The young masters of the Gu family really care for Miss Gu."

Gu Jinhe lowered his eyes to glance at Yang Xiu, and said indifferently: "You are too kind. It is not as good as Ms. Yang's love for her own niece."

Yang Xiu's expression suddenly changed, but she quickly adjusted her expression, looked at Gu Jinhe in confusion and asked, "I don't understand what Miss Gu means by this."

Gu Jinhe: "You know what's going on in your mind, don't you? I really didn't expect that you, as an aunt, would be so cruel. She is your niece."

If Gu Jinkuan had not been asked to investigate and monitor Yang Xiu years ago, Gu Jinhe would not have known that the reason why Yang Qiao got into trouble in the Liu family's ancestral hall was that Yang Xiu was involved.

Yang Xiu said without changing her expression: "Miss Gu, did you misunderstand something? Qiaoqiao is the only daughter of our Yang family. How could I treat her badly?"

Gu Jinhe: "Yang Qiao is the only eldest daughter of the Yang family, what about you?"

Yang Xiu was stunned for a moment, as if he had not expected Gu Jinhe to suddenly ask such a question.

Yang Xiu: "I am Qiao Qiao's aunt."

Gu Jinhe: "You are an incompetent aunt. If I had a niece, I would definitely raise her to be the most noble girl in the capital, and I would never let anyone give her the opportunity to suffer the slightest injustice."

Yang Xiu raised his eyes to look at Gu Jinhe and said something ambiguous: "You raise him? I hope you still have a chance to raise him."

Gu Jinhe ignored the sarcasm in her words: "Whether I raise him or not, it won't change this fact."

After the incident of Murong Qingxuan's severed finger, Yang Xiu no longer dared to threaten Gu Jinhe. What she wanted now was that the Murong family should not fall so quickly, so that they would at least have enough strength to deal with Gu Jinhe.

After Yang Xiu brought the severed finger back, he hoped for a lucky hapless outcome and took it for a paternity test, and the result showed that it was indeed Murong Qingxuan's severed finger.

Yang Xiu then knew what Gu Jinhe's bottom line was.

Even though Yang Xiu felt resentful at this moment, he did not dare to say too much, for fear of angering Gu Jinhe and sending something from Murong Qingxuan to her.

Gu Jinhe glanced at Fu Huaiyuan who was walking towards them, and said to Yang Xiu, "Do you have anything else to do?"

Yang Xiu gritted her teeth secretly at Gu Jinhe's words to chase him away, then smiled and said, "Sorry to bother you, Miss Gu."

Yang Xiu turned around in the rocking chair and saw Fu Huaiyuan. Her eyes darkened and she left without stopping.

Fu Huaiyuan came to Gu Jinhe, raised his hand to touch her hair and said softly: "Why didn't you tell me in advance that you were coming?"

Gu Jinhe smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid that you won't let me come?"

Fu Huaiyuan: "So you just acted first and asked for permission later?"

Gu Jinhe held Fu Huaiyuan's hand: "Is it not possible?"

Fu Huaiyuan's eyes flashed with helplessness: "This is not a question of whether or not, Jinhe, I don't want anything to happen to you."

Gu Jinhe looked at Fu Huaiyuan steadily: "I don't want anything to happen to you either."

At least with her here, the Murong family won't do anything too ruthless.

As long as she hasn't reached her 28th birthday, the Murong family will have to be a little cautious.

Even if he wished she would die, he would not do anything to her now.

Looking at Gu Jinhe's determined eyes, Fu Huaiyuan was defeated. He sighed: "Don't be stubborn. Do everything within your ability."

Gu Jinhe: "I know. You also told me this last time when we went to the Bai family banquet."

Fu Huaiyuan: "I'm afraid you've forgotten, so I'll emphasize it again."

It was not very convenient to talk here as there were too many people around. Gu Jinhe gestured to the bodyguards beside him, telling them not to follow him, and then he pulled Fu Huaiyuan to the foot of a hill not far away, where the terrain was low and there was no one nearby.

There happened to be a few rocks at the bottom of the hill. Gu Jinhe found a flat rock to sit on and asked, "When do you plan to go up the mountain?"

Fu Huaiyuan sat down on the side and said, "Rest for a day and go up the mountain early tomorrow morning."

Gu Jinhe tilted his head to look at the dense forest on the mountain and said, "So many people suddenly appeared at the foot of the mountain. Do you think the people in the Murong family know about this?"

Fu Huaiyuan: "I'm afraid the Murong family has received the news before we even get here."

Gu Jinhe: "They really won't run away?"

Gu Jinhe roughly calculated just now that there were almost a thousand people gathered at the foot of the mountain, and this was not the end yet, as more people would come one after another.

After all, so many people went up the mountain to encircle and suppress the Murong family. No matter how confident the Murong family was, they should consider whether they could survive under the hands of so many people.

As far as she knew, everyone who came here today was the best of the best, not to mention that many of the people brought by Gu Jinhe were mercenaries. Whether they were marksmanship or close combat, they were far beyond the standards of ordinary people.

From the people brought by the major families, it can be seen that in this operation to encircle and suppress the Murong family, everyone is determined to bring the Murong family down.

Fu Huaiyuan spoke in a low voice, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes: "Decades ago, when the Murong family knew that the seven great families were going to deal with them, they did not hide or escape, but chose to strike first. Now, they still will not choose to hide."
