The Rebirth of an Orphan

Zhao Xihua's face looked unhappy, and the servant no longer dared to say anything, knowing that it was better to talk less and do more.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Xihua's expression softened a little, and she winked at Pingshui. Pingshui quickly took out a red envelope and handed it to the maid, saying with a smile: "Auntie, this is the hard work fee my sister gave you. Take it and buy some delicious food for the people in the kitchen."

The maid's face immediately showed joy. She didn't expect the young lady to be so generous and sensible. "Thank you, young lady. We won't disturb you then." The maid was very considerate and knew that the young lady didn't like irrelevant people to be in her room.

Zhao Xihua felt a little embarrassed listening to the constant words of thanks. After all, these people didn't know that she was using the money given by Gu Lun to reward them, it just passed through Zhao Xihua's hands.

Zhao Xihua looked at the table full of dishes, but she felt strange in her heart, as if Gu Lun was treating her like a pig.

The dishes were very delicate and delicious. Zhao Xihua couldn't help but eat a little too much. Just as she was about to get up and go for a walk in the small garden to digest the food, Chunfeng came in hurriedly from outside with a panicked look on his face.

"Miss, it's not good."

"What's wrong?" Zhao Xihua frowned.

Chunfeng came to Zhao Xi's painting and whispered, "Miss, it's the eldest young master of the Sun family..."

"What's wrong with the young master?" Zhao Xihua asked hurriedly.

Chunfeng turned around and walked out, grabbing Uncle Lin outside the door and bringing him into the room. She couldn't say anything, so she had to let Uncle Lin, who came to deliver the letter, speak.

Seeing Zhao Xihua's unhappy expression, Uncle Lin had to whisper: "Miss, the young master didn't wait for you last night, so he went to a restaurant to drink. I didn't expect that he drank too much, and now..."

He paused and continued, "Now he's making trouble again. Not only is he crying, but he's also drawing a portrait of the lady on the wall of the restaurant. The owner of the restaurant is helpless."

Zhao Xihua didn't expect Sun Xiao to be so ridiculous. If he was discovered by someone with ulterior motives, would she still have any face left? Did Sun Xiao not care about his own face, the face of the Sun family, and even the face of the Gu family?

She hurriedly stood up and said, "Uncle Lin, go and talk to the restaurant owner right now. Tell him that the young master is Miss Nangong's relative and that if he continues to make trouble there, he will definitely suffer. Then give him some money and ask the restaurant to close to compensate for his losses. I'll be there soon."

"Okay, I'll go right away." Uncle Lin quickly turned around and went out to do as Zhao Xihua instructed. Fortunately, it was not lunch time yet so there were not many people around.

Zhao Xihua quickly changed her clothes, put on a hat and a mask, leaving only her eyes exposed, and was about to walk out the door when Chunfeng remembered something and whispered, "Should I tell my son-in-law that the young lady is out to deal with this?"

Zhao Xihua said casually: "No, this is my private matter."

Chunfeng wanted to say something but Pingshui stopped him and said, "How can we tell this to our son-in-law? We just need to wait here for news from our sister."

Chunfeng asked again: "Then we don't have to follow the young lady?"

Pingshui laughed, "You are really stupid, my sister is getting married and yet you are dealing with something like this. We must not let the people in Kyoto recognize us. If my sister goes alone, the impact will be smaller. If we all go, it will be so loud. If someone with ulterior motives recognizes us as someone close to my sister, won't that implicate my sister?"

Chunfeng nodded, thinking that Pingshui was smarter than himself.

Zhao Xihua took a car to the restaurant that Uncle Lin told her about. Although it was also by the moat, its location was still a bit remote.

Uncle Lin saw her coming and hurried over to greet her: "Miss, the eldest master is in the private room inside. The people here have been cleared out. I have also arranged for the boss and other staff to move to other places."

Zhao Xihua nodded and walked towards the box. As soon as she reached the door of the box, she heard the voice of Sun Xiao talking from inside. She didn't know what he was saying, but she could feel endless pain and despair in his hoarse voice.

She took a deep breath and pushed open the door of the box. What greeted her was Sun Xiao, who was drunk and lying on a chair, looking extremely embarrassed.

The table was littered with tilted bottles and overturned glasses, and Sun Xiao, with his back to the door of the box, cried, "I wanted to illuminate the moon, but the moon only illuminates the ditch. Why, why?"

Zhao Xihua didn't say anything, but slowly picked up the chair that had fallen to the ground.

Hearing the noise, Sun Xiao forced himself to turn around and look at Zhao Xihua who was standing in front of him. His face was still drunk, but the moment he saw Zhao Xihua, his expression became a little flustered.

He didn't want Zhao Xihua to see him in such a miserable state, so he hurriedly stood up and said something, but he used too much force and fell heavily backwards.

"Young Master, be careful." Zhao Xihua's face changed and he hurried forward to support Sun Xiao, but he didn't expect that Sun Xiao stumbled and pulled him into his arms.

"Young Master~" Zhao Xihua was suddenly frightened. She wanted to break free from Sun Xiao but it was useless. Sun Xiao could no longer control the strong emotions hidden in his heart.

He hugged Zhao Xihua tightly, and said in a trembling voice: "Hua'er, I don't want to be the heir of the Sun family anymore. Can you come with me? Please come with me. I thought I could bear the pain of losing you, but it's too difficult. If you leave Yuncheng, my soul will also be gone. What should I do? What should I do?"

"Young Master, let me go." Zhao Xihua wanted to break free from Sun Xiao, but unexpectedly Sun Xiao hugged her even tighter. Smelling the familiar fragrance of the woman in his arms, Sun Xiao's heart was already confused, and his mind was blank. He suddenly lowered his head and kissed Zhao Xihua's delicate and tempting lips fiercely.

Zhao Xihua was shocked and felt ashamed. She was not a casual person. She couldn't stand being humiliated by one or two people like this.

In a panic, she pushed Sun Xiao away fiercely, staggered backwards, and ran into a cold and hard embrace.

A cold amber scent wafted through the air. Zhao Xihua turned around and looked at Gu Lun, who had come over at some point. Her face suddenly turned pale.

No, she wanted to say that it was not what he saw, but in fact it was like this.

Gu Lun went to see his father Gu Zhiyang early in the morning. As usual, the father and son had an argument as soon as they met. They parted unhappily and went to his private club to see his young wife.

But he ended up hearing this news. When he just got here, the scene in front of him made his face sink to the bottom.
