It depends on what your objective is. I assume you want to expand your skillset for the future. C++ is good because there's tons of legacy C++ code out there, and companies will need people to maintain it for decades to come. Rust is good because it's trendy and looks good on a resume. Do note, however, that C++ and Rust skills are unlikely to be valuable at the same kinds of companies.
