The Rebirth of an Orphan

"Where did you come from, soldier? How dare you mess up my good thing? Are you tired of living? Come here, catch him for me." The young officer was interrupted by a dandy boy who was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick.

Although the dude said this, his subordinates who had been so ferocious before did not dare to step forward.

The young officer's face changed, he looked up at the guards behind him, and heard the sound of bayonets being unsheathed. Soon after, a scream was heard. The leading dandy was also startled, and was grabbed by the neck by two soldiers and kicked to the ground.

"You, you, you..." The dude finally got a little scared, his face turned pale instantly. But the soldier who was pinching his neck had no intention of letting go, not only did he not give him any face, but also hit him hard.

The playboy was also furious. He yelled at the young officer, "Are you blind? Do you know who I am? My father is the son of Minister Qin of the Ministry of Finance. You little scoundrels think you can arrest me? Are you really that bold?"

Zhao Xihua looked at the arrogant yet pitiful dude in front of her. He turned out to be Qin Mengmeng, the master of the Qin family. The Qin family and the Zhao family were somewhat related. If they really recognized each other, Zhao Xihua would be the cousin of the young master of the Qin family.

She had heard of the reputation of this Young Master Qin. He was the only child in the Qin family, so he was very spoiled. Just looking at the lawless Qin Xiaoxiao, she could tell what kind of domineering person this Young Master Qin was.

But before Zhao Xihua could recover from such surprise, the guards beside the young officer laughed coldly: "A little playboy from the Qin family actually dared to disrespect my General Ling, why don't you kowtow and apologize quickly."

Zhao Xihua looked at the handsome young officer in front of her. She had been wondering which family in Kyoto this young officer had such an extraordinary bearing, but she didn't expect that he was from the Ling family.

If we talk about the number one family in the entire country, it is only the Ling family. Even the current president is wary of the Ling family.

Ling Qian, the head of the Ling family, is deeply appreciated and valued by the Queen Mother. He now commands nearly one million soldiers. Ling Qian has a son and a daughter. The daughter is Miss Zi Ye, whom the Queen Mother likes. She grew up in the Presidential Palace and was named a princess. The one in front of you is the prince of the Ling family, Ling Zhi. He followed his father to fight outside at a young age and controls the Qinglong Army, the most elite tiger guard division in the country. He is definitely a leader of the new generation of the country.

It was just that the last time Zhao Xihua entered the Presidential Palace, after the incident caused by Qin Xiaoxiao, Gu Lun was appointed commander of the Five Cities Armaments Department. Zhao Xihua knew that Gu Lun was going to go against the Ling family completely in order to seize power for the Ninth Prince.

Everyone knows that the Third Prince relied on the Ling family to get to the top, so there is bound to be a fierce fight between the Third Prince and the Ninth Prince, and this fierce fight will be decided between the Ling family and Gu Lun.

Zhao Xihua knew very well that she was tied to Gu Lun, and she immediately became more alert to Ling Zhi in front of her, but she did not show it.

Zhao Xihua took a step back and said to Ling Zhi in front of him, "It turned out to be General Ling. I am really sorry for being so abrupt. Thank you for saving me today. But it is getting late, so I have to say goodbye and go home. Thank you again, General."

Although Ling Zhi saved her, she didn't want to face the Qin family and the Ling family on the street. Now that the Ling family was there, things had gotten out of hand. She had to leave here immediately. Gu Lun would probably take care of things here later.

Ling Zhi didn't expect that the girl who had said she wanted to come to thank him would change in the blink of an eye. He was slightly stunned and asked, "Miss, please stay. Can you leave your name?

Zhao Xihua responded: "I am the wife of Gu Lun from the Gu family compound - Zhao Xihua." After that, she quickly disappeared into the crowd with Chunfeng and Aqiang.

"Gu Lun's wife?" Ling Zhi's eyes flickered. He had heard in the army a long time ago that a very capable young man had emerged in Kyoto this year. He was Gu Lun, the newly recognized heir of the Gu family.

It is said that the Fourth Prince's accident seems to be related to this person. It is true that enemies will always meet. But Gu Lun is very lucky, as his wife is a charming woman.

"General?" The guard pointed at Qin Mengmeng who was still cursing and whispered, "General, how do we deal with this man?"

Ling Zhi raised a faint smile at the corner of his lips and said, "Let him go." Now the guard was a little confused.

Ling Zhi sneered, "A fool who doesn't know how to live or die has touched someone that Gu Lun can't touch. You can imagine what will happen to him. There's no need for us to do anything about it. Let him go."

As soon as Zhao Xihua's car drove out of the commercial street, she saw Gu Lun's car coming towards her quickly.

The news about the commercial street must have spread quickly, and the commotion caused by the young master of the Ling family must have quickly reached Gu Lun's ears.

Zhao Xihua didn't expect Gu Lun to come so anxiously. She just wanted to calm the situation down. After all, it involved people from the Qin and Ling families. She knew that Gu Lun was not a good-tempered person. If he really confronted Qin Mengmeng, he might beat him to death.

She quickly stopped the car, got out quickly, and shouted at Gu Lun's car: "Gu Lun—"

Gu Lun's car suddenly stopped. Gu Lun, looking unhappy, quickly got out of the car and walked straight to Zhao Xihua. He grabbed her hand and looked her up and down. Zhao Xihua was a little frightened by his gaze and whispered, "I'm fine. Let's go home first."

Gu Lun helped Zhao Xihua get into the car, and then said to Changfeng who was following him, "You drive, help Aqiang go and have a rest."

A Qiang looked at Zhao Xihua. He was Zhao Xihua's subordinate, and even Gu Lun could not mobilize him. Zhao Xihua nodded at A Qiang, and he followed Changfeng away.

Gu Lun sat next to Zhao Xihua, but refused to let go of Zhao Xihua's hand. He lowered his head and his eyes fell on Zhao Xihua's wrist.

Zhao Xihua's skin was originally fair and delicate, but Qin Mengmeng had grabbed her wrist with some force, and now it was covered with bruises.

Gu Lun's face was a little gloomy, and Zhao Xihua didn't dare to say anything. Zhao Xihua already understood Gu Lun's temperament. The more silent he was, the more it showed that he was trying his best to restrain himself.

Zhao Xihua didn't dare to move and could only let Gu Lun hold her hand tightly. The car soon arrived at the west gate of the Gu family compound. Gu Lun got out of the car first, then bent down, picked up Zhao Xihua horizontally and walked towards the East Garden.

The servants in the Gu family's courtyard looked at Gu Lun with a dark face and walked in quickly with the young lady in his arms. They didn't dare to say anything, but just bowed and stood aside to avoid blocking the way.

Zhao Xihua was very uncomfortable. Her injury was on her wrist, not her foot. She was at a loss as to what to do when she was held like this. The servants in the East Garden were also very surprised. They didn't know what their masters were up to.
