Chapter 917 Drinking with him

Gu Beisheng was no longer so nervous and responded softly: "What's going on?"

In the darkness, his pupils were deep and dark. He was silent for a few seconds, and then he slowly said: "Tomorrow, I am going to the Lu family to pay homage to the eldest lady of the Lu family. There are some things you should know."

Gu Beisheng was slightly startled.

This seemed to be the first time he mentioned Miss Lu family.

That is herself.

She didn't respond and waited quietly for him to continue.

She was also looking forward to what he would say.

However, he remained silent for a long time.

I don’t know if I’m hesitating or just don’t know where to start.

Gu Beisheng moved slightly.

"do not move."

The man's voice was obviously a bit deeper, and his voice seemed to come from his throat, which was so hoarse that it was a bit confusing.

Gu Beisheng swallowed his throat and froze again, not moving.

"Um."

He responded softly.

Then, Fu Xizhou spoke again, his voice a little gentler than before.

"The deceased eldest lady of the Lu family has the same name as you but a different surname. She also has the character 'Sheng'."

Gu Beisheng said nothing.

She was also very confused about the same name.

She guessed that the person who originally named her might know that she was Lu Sheng, the eldest daughter of the Lu family.

But upon further reflection, it seems that this person does not exist.

Thinking like this, after she went to the Lu family tomorrow, she would take time to visit the Gu family.

However, now, she is still looking forward to what he will say.

"The elders of our two families are comrades in arms, so we decided to marry each other."

Gu Beisheng was stunned, but he never thought that he would take the initiative to talk about this matter.

Mrs. Fu happened to tell her about this not long ago.

For a moment, I didn't know whether to respond.

Fu Xizhou said word for word: "Lu Sheng is my fiancée."

Having said this, he held her hand tightly.

Gu Beisheng felt his strength and the warmth of his palm, and his heart moved slightly.

He suddenly held her hand tightly because he was sad.

then what?

She didn't know.

Then, Fu Xizhou said: "When Lu Sheng was very young, Mr. Lu often took her to our house to play. It wasn't until I was sent to the countryside in Shangcheng that I never saw her again. Not long after, I heard that

received news of her death.”

Although Gu Beisheng couldn't see his expression clearly, he heard the subtle sound in his throat when he swallowed.

She could also tell from his slightly hoarse voice that he was not relieved about Lu Sheng's death.

She moved her lips: "What happened next?"

"Later, Mr. Lu canceled the engagement." When he said this, his tone was a little helpless.

Gu Beisheng lowered his eyes, feeling an inexplicable pain in his heart.

When Mrs. Fu said this, she didn't feel that much, as if she was listening to someone else's story.

But tonight, hearing him say it himself, the feeling was completely different from that day.

It was like an invisible hand was restraining her throat, making her breathless.

She and Fu Xizhou seemed to be destined.

Even though the engagement was canceled, she still married him on his behalf by some strange combination of circumstances.

In fact, with her ability, she could refuse such unreasonable request of Gu Chenghua and his wife.

But she didn't refuse.

Because she once promised a person that she would cure Fu Xizhou's illness and let him live a good life.

That person once saved her life.

It was a rare coincidence that she could use this to get back the shares her grandma left her and fulfill her promise to repay that person's kindness.

This is the best of both worlds for her.

Good night~
