Rebirth: Mr. Fu will not cancel the engagement this time
Chapter 71 Sapling Security
The next day, the incident at the Penglai Art Exhibition was exposed, and everyone was shocked. After the news of calligraphy and paintings worth hundreds of millions of yuan being swapped was published, many people who had participated in the "Making Friends Through Painting" exhibition became anxious.
On that day, many people came to report that their paintings had been swapped. Almost all of the valuable paintings that had appeared in the Penglai Art Exhibition had their paintings swapped and become fakes.
This immediately caused a sensation in the entire literary and art circle, and news reports on debunking fake news were reported one after another.
On the morning of the third day, Shu Mo placed a newspaper in front of Gu Jinhe and said, "Miss, there is some progress on the Penglai Art Exhibition."
Gu Jinhe looked at the big cover of the front page of the newspaper. There was a photo of Li Penglai and a line of words introducing his information next to it.
"Li Penglai, originally named Li Erniu, was born in a poor disabled family in a remote mountainous area."
The old man hiding in the secret door is Li Penglai's father.
Li Penglai's father was deaf, speechless and illiterate, so it was extremely difficult to find clues from him, but Han Sheng did it, and soon found out that Li Penglai made fake paintings and sold them to wealthy businessmen at low prices by replacing the originals.
Gu Jinhe put down the newspaper and said to Shu Mo, "Bring me the jade token that my second aunt gave me when I went back to Gu's house that day."
Not long after, Shu Mo placed the brocade box containing the jade pendant in front of Gu Jinhe. Gu Jinhe reached out and rubbed the peony pattern on the brocade box, thinking of what the old lady had said to her.
"This jade token represents the identity symbol of the person in charge of the Gu family. The Gu family has always been inherited by the eldest son and grandson. There have been women in power in previous generations."
If nothing had happened to Gu Chenjun, and if Gu Jinhe had not been missing for twenty years, this jade tablet would have been given to her at her eighteenth-year-old coming-of-age ceremony.
But there is no "if" in this world. Gu Jinhe had never seen this jade token in his previous life. It seems that it has always been in the hands of the second wife.
This jade plaque is carved from top-grade imperial green without a single flaw. It is emerald green, transparent, warm and bright. The front is engraved with the Gu family emblem, and the back is engraved with the seal character "Gu".
The jade token, which is half the size of a palm, represents the same meaning as the tiger seal used by royal nobles in ancient times.
Gu Jinhe put the jade token back into the brocade box and said to Shu Mo, "From now on, this brocade box will be placed in my room."
Shu Mo nodded in agreement, then told a story about Gu Feiwan.
Since that day, Gu Jinhe has never seen Gu Feiwan again, and Yikun Courtyard has been quiet. Everyone is guessing that given how much the Fifth House dotes on Gu Feiwan, they will definitely not punish her.
But just today, the news came out that Gu Feiwan was punished by Gu Chenliang to kneel in the Gu family temple that night.
After one night, my knee was so swollen that I couldn't stand up. I stayed in bed for many days. Now I can finally walk.
The first thing she did after she was able to walk was to tear up the fish tank in the yard.
I heard that the yard was filled with the crackling sound of fish tails hitting the ground, and the scene was in chaos.
The situation didn't calm down until Ye Pingting arrived and asked someone to clean up the mess.
No one knew what the mother and daughter said to each other, but although the fish tank was cleaned, the fish were no longer kept in the yard.
Although Gu Feiwan's knee had recovered, Gu Chenliang had ordered that she could not leave the hospital without his permission, otherwise she would never be allowed to come back.
Gu Feiwan had been told this by the old lady once before, and she kept it in mind and dared not forget it. Now that her father said the same thing to her again, it was even more impossible for her to leave the yard.
So until the period before the New Year, Gu Jinhe will not see Gu Feiwan again.
Shu Mo told Gu Jinhe about this matter in order to relieve the young lady of her worries.
After all, Gu Feiwan is the second daughter of the Gu family and the apple of the eye of the fifth room.
Even though Gu Jinhe has the old lady standing behind her to support her, she will still be harassed by Gu Feiwan. As long as the two of them are in Gu's house, they will meet sooner or later.
There are less than two months left until the Chinese New Year. During this period, Gu Feiwan will not appear in front of the Gu family. This is good news.
Gu Jinhe later gave the young man who was slapped by Gu Feiwan that day a tenfold bonus. After all, he was beaten by Gu Feiwan because of her, so it was right for Gu Jinhe to give him the bonus.
Speaking of Gu Feiwan, Gu Jinhe thought of Wu Shuran. Ever since he saw her in the living room of the hospital ward that day, Gu Jinhe had not seen her again and had not heard any news about her that night.
Thinking of what Fu Huaiyuan said that day, he said he would go talk to Wu Qian'an. She was busy with her own things during this period and almost forgot about it.
Gu Jinhe glanced at the mobile phone on the table and wanted to send a message to Fu Huaiyuan to ask him, but she typed the words for a long time but didn't send it out. Then she deleted them word by word.
Fu Huaiyuan helped her because of his own upbringing and responsibility, as well as the affection between the two families. It would be human nature not to help her.
If she sent a message to ask, what if the other person was just saying it casually? Wouldn't it be awkward for both of them if she asked this?
Thinking of this, Gu Jinhe's hand suddenly trembled and she sent out an emoticon. She wanted to withdraw it, but then she thought that even if she withdrew it, the withdrawal message would still be displayed on it. So she gave up and did not move. She waited quietly for about a minute, but there was no response from the phone.
Gu Jinhe put down his phone and leaned back in his chair silently.
It has been more than three months since she was reborn. Gu Jinhe has thought about how to deal with many things, but she has been hesitant about Fu Huaiyuan.
Especially since there is an engagement between the two of them.
Gu Jinhe was actually trying to avoid this matter. She didn't know how to face Fu Huaiyuan.
His ability to attract women is too great, and as a supporting actress, I feel that I should stay away from such a male protagonist.
What's more, they are engaged, and sooner or later they will get into trouble.
In novels and on TV, such female supporting characters never have a good ending.
Especially after the heroine appeared later, her purpose of existence was to snatch the male protagonist's vicious villain female supporting role. Even if she didn't go offline, she had to spend all her money to make the heroine feel at ease and let the male and female protagonists live happily together without worries.
But even if it is garbage that is thrown away after being used to its full potential, it still has the right to control its own destiny.
At the beginning, Gu Jinhe thought that the supporting actress could only survive by staying alive if she wanted to save her life, but what she wanted to do had nothing to do with staying alive.
In this case, she might as well give up her supporting female role and be the protagonist of her own life.
She didn't want to only appear in a few sentences at the end of the story.
Gu Jinhe asked Xu Cheng to gather all the people she had asked him to investigate before, and she funded these people to open a security company for her.
Xu Cheng asked what the name of the company was.
Gu Jinhe thought for a long time, and somehow thought of the story of the two saplings that Fu Huaiyuan told him in the cave on that rainy night.
"Just call Sapling Security."
It is quite appropriate that big trees protect small saplings.
