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

The name Gu Jinyou was actually something that Gu Jinhe accidentally saw in the old lady’s notes after she passed away in her previous life.

The old lady's handwriting is in small calligraphy with flower-patterns, and her handwriting is as beautiful as her personality.

It was mentioned in the notes that after Gu Feiwan was born, the old lady told Gu Chenliang about the name she was going to give her.

But before she could say it, Ye Pingting had already decided on the name.

Therefore, the old lady did not reveal the name.

Gu Jiajin is the name that Gu Feiwan has been obsessed with. In fact, she was able to have it at the beginning.

But Gu Feiwan will never know about this in his lifetime.

After saying this, Gu Jinhe returned to his seat and slowly recounted what had happened in the past three years in a light-hearted manner.

Speaking of the fall of the Murong family, Gu Jinhe looked up at Gu Chenliang, who had his eyes closed, and said in a calm voice: "I don't know why you chose to cooperate with the Murong family back then, and even went so far as to kill your own nephew. If it weren't for my second brother's good luck, I'm afraid the person lying on the bed would be him."

"Perhaps the Murong family made some promise to you. When you thought the Murong family was invincible, you probably never thought that the Murong family would also be destroyed one day."

Gu Jinhe: "I never believe in fate. I always think that fate is in my own hands. Just work hard for what you want. Don't rely on others or use extraordinary means to get it. Things you get in this way will never belong to you. One day, others will use the same means to take it back."

"The old lady gave up investigating the cause of my parents' death for you, and now she can give up on you for the sake of her other grandchildren."

"You were born as the fifth young master of the Gu family, dressed in fine clothes and fed with delicious food, surrounded by servants, and even when you grew up, there were people outside praising you. You were born a child of destiny. I don't understand why you are targeting my parents."

"If you want the position of the head of the Gu family, then you really don't need to do this. When my parents decided to take me to live in the ancestral home, they had already made it clear that they didn't want to get involved in the affairs between the aristocratic families."

"My parents didn't agree with the seven great families using me to deal with the Murong family. The old lady finally agreed to let my parents take me away. They really wanted to leave, but why did you betray my parents' whereabouts?"

"In fact, if nothing unexpected had happened, I should have grown up in my ancestral home. Although it is not as prosperous as the capital, being able to grow up under the lap of my parents and have them accompany me is better than any other prosperous place."

"But you have ruined this hope."

"Uncle Wu, do you think I shouldn't hate you?"

"I remember Gu Jinyu said something like this before, but what he said was, shouldn't I hate me?"

"From his perspective, I am probably a vicious villain. It was me who destroyed his family, put his sister in jail, and sent his mother overseas, who will never be able to come back to see him again. My father has become a vegetable, and he is the only intact person left in the entire fifth room."

"He has reason to hate me, but all this is based on my revenge."

"He should be thankful that he hasn't done anything that violates my bottom line. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to act so arrogantly in this place now."

"Children of aristocratic families are always sought after and praised wherever they go. This statement is very true for Gu Jinyu."

"I'm about to turn 28. Although the Murong family has been destroyed, my heart still cannot be at peace. I want to deal with all the things I want to do but haven't done yet, and all the things I haven't finished saying."

"So, I came to visit you at the ancestral home."

"This should be the first time someone from the Gu family has come to see you in the past few years, right?"

"Ever since you and Gu Jinyu left the Gu family, the Gu family has never heard of your name again. After a long time, I almost feel that the Gu family really does not have a fifth branch."

"But your name and Gu Jinyu's name are still on the Gu family's genealogy. When Gu Jinyu took you away from the Gu family, he promised the old lady that no one from the fifth branch of the Gu family would ever set foot in the capital and would live in their ancestral home forever."

"Gu Jinyu came to me before he left, trying to use my identity to threaten me to take Gu Feiwan with me."

"Gu Jinyu is sometimes so naive that it's scary."

"But in the end he made a decision that wasn't a bad one."

After Gu Jinhe finished telling what had happened in the past few years, she stood up and said to Gu Chenliang, "I have said everything I need to say. I will live in the ancestral home for a few days, but I will not come to see you again."

Gu Jinhe thought, let it be, all the grudges will end from here.

It was almost noon when Gu Jinhe arrived at the ancestral home. When she came out, only Xu Cheng was guarding the door.

Xu Cheng saw Gu Jinhe coming out and said, "Mr. Zhao has gone to prepare lunch. Miss, are you going to eat now?"

It turned out that the old man's surname was Zhao. Gu Jinhe nodded slightly: "Do you know where the restaurant is?"

Xu Cheng: "Mr. Zhao showed me the way before he left."

Before leaving, Gu Jinhe turned around, closed the gate, and followed Xu Cheng out of the yard.

When they arrived at the restaurant, Mr. Zhao had already served all the dishes on the table. Seeing Gu Jinhe coming over, he said somewhat at a loss: "I don't know what the young lady likes to eat, so I asked someone to prepare all the more famous dishes in Beijing. Can you try it and see if it tastes authentic?"

Gu Jinhe looked at the table that almost filled up with food and could feel Mr. Zhao's enthusiasm and nervousness.

Gu Jinhe nodded slightly at him: "Thank you for your help."

After Gu Jinhe sat down, he asked Xu Cheng to sit down as well, then he looked at Mr. Zhao who was standing in the distance and said, "Old man, come and sit down too."

When Mr. Zhao heard this, he waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, how can I sit at the same table with the young lady to eat?"

Gu Jinhe smiled and said, "You prepared so many dishes. Xu Cheng and I can't finish them. We can't waste them, right?"

"Come and sit down. I have something to ask you."

"Hey, good."

When he heard that Gu Jinhe had something to ask him, Mr. Zhao sat down on the chair. Xu Cheng stood up and added tableware for him. He smiled at Xu Cheng in gratitude, with wrinkles on his face, and he was no longer as cold as when they met at the door.

"Miss, whatever you want to ask, I will tell you everything I know."

Gu Jinhe was a little amused: "Don't be nervous, it's as if I'm interrogating a prisoner."

Zhao Laowei lowered his eyes and did not dare to look up at Gu Jinhe. He said with a slightly excited tone: "I have waited for twenty-five years, a full twenty-five years. I thought I would never get the chance, but I did not expect that God would still favor me and finally let me wait for the eldest lady."

Upon hearing this, Gu Jinhe's mind turned, and he immediately understood. When Gu Chenjun and his wife brought Gu Jinhe to their ancestral hometown, they must have arranged everything here and were just waiting for them to come.

I just didn't expect something to happen along the way.

Old Zhao waited for twenty-five years, but only Gu Jinhe came. Gu Chenjun and Lu Yuan could no longer wait.
