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

Qi Hui did not answer Gu Jinhe's question immediately, but asked: "Why did you come?"

"During this roundup, I didn't expect you to come. I thought you would avoid it."

Gu Jinhe asked, "Why should I avoid it?"

Qi Hui: "Although your last name is Gu, your relationship with the Murong family is closer than any of ours. Your presence will make some people feel distrustful."

"These people will doubt whether you will inform the Murong family and betray them."

Gu Jinhe raised his eyebrows slightly: "Is this why you asked me to act with you?"

Qi Hui told the truth: "Not entirely. I know you will be 28 soon. I found that the Murong family is particularly strict in observing the family rules. No matter what they think in their hearts, they appear to be unmoved, keeping to the time and the rules. They are even willing to give in because of this, but when the time comes, they will kill you without mercy."

"Don't you think it's funny?"

Gu Jinhe lowered his eyelids slightly. Qi Hui was suspicious of the Murong family's background.

But for Gu Jinhe, everything is just speculation at the moment, and she is not sure whether it is true or not, so there is no need for her to tell Qi Hui about her speculation.

Gu Jinhe didn't say anything, but Qi Hui didn't stop: "I asked someone to check the stone carvings and mechanisms on the stone door. They were used by the royal family to guard the tomb door."

But the Murong family happened to use it to guard an arms and explosives factory.

Qi Hui looked at Gu Jinhe steadily: "The Murong family is the first aristocratic family in the capital, but they chose to retreat after other aristocratic families emerged. What do you think the status of the Murong family is?"

Gu Jinhe lowered his eyes and smiled, then looked up at Qi Hui, his gaze not avoiding or avoiding: "Major Qi can't find out, how can I know?"

"This is my first time setting foot on this mountain since I was a child. Major Qi, what do you think...I should know?"

Gu Jinhe threw the question to Qi Hui again.

Qi Hui suddenly smiled and turned his gaze to Fu Huaiyuan who was standing beside him: "Mr. Fu, don't you have anything to ask?"

When Gu Jinhe and Qi Hui were talking just now, Fu Huaiyuan did not speak and seemed not to be paying attention to their conversation.

Now Qi Hui asked Fu Huaiyuan by name, just to know what Fu Huaiyuan's attitude was when going up the mountain with them this time.

Fu Huaiyuan turned his head to look at Gu Jinhe. At this time, Gu Jinhe's face had an indifferent expression and a hint of coldness in his eyes.

Fu Huaiyuan reached out and held Gu Jinhe's hand, then turned his gaze to Qi Hui: "The question my fiancée asked is also the question I want to ask."

Qi Hui showed a strange look on his face: "Don't you really want to know what the hidden identity behind the Murong family is?"

Gu Jinhe's heart sank. She had a feeling that her previous guess was probably right.

I really don’t know how to describe my mood at this moment.

There was shock and confusion, but in the end it all turned into calm.

So what if his Murong family is a noble family or a pariah family? None of this has anything to do with Gu Jinhe.

Only Gu Jinhe understood why the Murong family valued the legitimate descendants so much, and why the heir had to go through life and death before he could sit in that position.

Gu Jinhe thought it was quite ridiculous. They did all kinds of bad things in secret, but they still had to be self-disciplined and abide by the previous rules and not overstep the line.

Just like the Murong family would not take action against Gu Jinhe until her 28th birthday.

This is all so ridiculous.

Why should the rules they have to follow require others to sacrifice their lives?

At this moment, an unprecedented anger filled Gu Jinhe's heart.

Fu Huaiyuan noticed Gu Jinhe's mood, held her hand tightly, and said to Qi Hui: "Everything will be fine when the time comes. Just let nature take its course."

Qi Hui knew that he could not get any useful information from these two people.

Qi Hui stood up and said, "Pack up and continue up the mountain."

The team going up the mountain began to move towards the halfway point of the mountain. Fu Huaiyuan held Gu Jinhe's hand tightly and never let go.

Gu Jinhe whispered, "Could it be that Qi Hui wants to use me to threaten the Murong family?"

After all, as long as Gu Jinhe has not reached her 28th birthday, her life and death must be in the hands of the Murong family.

And if Gu Jinhe's life was in danger before this, the Murong family would never let it go.

Fu Huaiyuan was carrying his own bag on his back, holding Gu Jinhe's backpack in his left hand, and holding Gu Jinhe's hand with his right hand. He was standing tall in a black windbreaker. His steps were neither fast nor slow, his thin lips were slightly pursed on his handsome face, and his eyes were looking at the road ahead indifferently, leading Gu Jinhe to avoid the growing branches and trunks. He didn't look like he was here to encircle and suppress the First Family, but rather like he was here for a trip.

Fu Huaiyuan: "He wouldn't dare to do that while I'm here."

Gu Jinhe laughed: "But you are only one person, and he has an entire army. Can you fight against thousands of troops alone?"

Fu Huaiyuan: "Why do you want to do it?"

Gu Jinhe raised his eyebrows: "If you don't do it, how can you prove to them your determination to protect me?"

Ahead is a dangerous road shrouded in thick fog, and behind are soldiers in combat uniforms defending their country.

The sun above our heads shines through the gaps between the loose leaves, casting light on the leaves, casting a layer of mottled shadows on the ground. Occasionally, the chirping of birds and insects can be heard. The air is humid, and there is a unique smell of grass in the woods.

Fu Huaiyuan's tone was low and pleasant, and his indifferent eyebrows suddenly showed a hint of softness. There was a hint of smile in his voice: "Why do I need to prove my determination to protect you to outsiders?"

Gu Jinhe also laughed: "Then how can you protect me?"

Fu Huaiyuan did not say how to protect Gu Jinhe, but said: "I am the leader of the family in this operation. I arranged all the plans. Qi Hui dare not touch me."

That’s why Fu Huaiyuan said just now that with him around, Qi Hui wouldn’t dare to attack Gu Jinhe.

Gu Jinhe smiled and did not talk about this topic anymore. She looked ahead and saw that the road was still shrouded in thick fog. She thought to herself, living in such an environment for so many years, wouldn't the people of the Murong family get sick?

But on second thought, the Murong family has lived in this mountain for hundreds of years, so how could they not know the problems? They must have already found a solution.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for the descendants to live in the Murong family's old house and never go down the mountain.

The footsteps of the crowd made a rustling sound on the ground. After walking for an hour, Fu Huaiyuan suddenly stopped.

Gu Jinhe paused and stopped. She turned around and looked around, frowning slightly: "I had a vague feeling of being watched before, and now this feeling is even stronger."

Gu Jinhe couldn't believe that the Murong family just watched them all the way up the mountain and did nothing.
