The Rebirth of an Orphan

Old Madam Zhao said sternly: "My Zhao family has a clean reputation and will not tolerate such things that ruin our reputation. Today, considering that you are a first-time offender, I will punish you with a small punishment and a big warning!"

As soon as he finished speaking, two male servants came forward, grabbed Zhao Xihua's arms on the left and right and pressed her to the ground. Then another male servant took a wooden stick and hit Zhao Xihua hard on the back.

No matter what, she was still the daughter of the Zhao family. No one expected that she would be beaten in such a way.

Zhao Xihua bit her lips hard. Even though the blood on her back had seeped through her dress, she didn't shed a tear or scream. She just stared at the people in front of her who were looking at her with gloating eyes.

Zhao Yan didn't expect that even at this point, this girl still had no intention of regretting. He became even more furious, "Beat her, beat her hard."

Zhao Xihua's voice trembled. She endured the pain and looked up at Zhao Yan and said, "Uncle, are you really going to be so heartless? Beat me to death if you have the guts, and don't regret it."

Zhao Yan was so angry that he almost lost his mind. He still didn't believe that an adopted daughter without a father or mother could survive for a few more days away from his Zhao family. When the time came, he would wait for her to crawl back to the Zhao family.

Looking at this situation, Old Mrs. Zhao always felt that something was wrong.

Seeing that the fourth girl had been beaten like that, she was not afraid at all and even deliberately used words to provoke Zhao Yan. Zhao Yan's angry words came too fast and she was unable to react.

The sound of the blows hitting Zhao Xihua's back became heavier and heavier. Her back was already covered in blood, but no one could hear her scream, which made the people watching nearby feel a little scared.

Suddenly, the housekeeper of the family hurried in, looking a little flustered. He walked to Zhao Yan's ear and said a few words.

Zhao Yan's face changed and he stood up suddenly from his chair. Before he could speak, footsteps were heard outside.

Looking over, he saw a group of people surrounding a young man wearing a white suit and a beige windbreaker coming in. Zhao Yan took a closer look and realized it was Sun Xiao.

He was originally thin, and he had just walked quickly for a while, so his face was slightly flushed, which made his appearance even more handsome and delicate.

The whole Yuncheng knows that although the eldest son of the Sun family has a noble status, he is terminally ill and is just staying at home to recuperate. Few people can see his true face.

The sisters of the Zhao family were all shocked when they saw Sun Xiao. They didn't expect that the eldest young master of the Sun family was so handsome and had such an extraordinary temperament. It was such a pity.

Sun Xiao stood in the middle of the room with the help of Ye Ying and Chu Xing. He first looked at Zhao Xihua, who was beaten and bleeding on the ground, and said slowly: "Yeying, find someone to help the girl up."

Sun Xiao's voice was not loud, but it carried an imposing aura that left no room for questioning, and his status also forced people to obey.

Without waiting for Ye Ying to call for help, he had already walked to Zhao Xihua, squatted down and slowly helped her up.

Zhao Xihua was about to faint, but she held on. The strong determination in her heart made her stand up. She said in a trembling voice, "Master, you are here."

"Well, come here, move a chair over." His personal bodyguard Chu Xing hurriedly moved a chair over, not paying attention to the surprised expressions of the Zhao family.

"Go find another bed and quilt." Sun Xiao looked at Zhao Xihua, whose face was pale in front of him. There was a hint of pity in his voice, but he didn't show it too obviously.

Chu Xing looked at Sun Xiao's calm and composed appearance and knew that he was really angry.

He didn't dare to delay and was about to ask someone to get a quilt when Pingshui rushed in, ran into the bedroom, took out a quilt and spread it on the chair. Then, with tears in her eyes, she helped Zhao Xihua slowly sit on the chair.

For a moment, no one dared to breathe. Zhao Yan wanted to talk to Sun Xiao, but he completely ignored him, making Zhao Yan feel a little helpless. What was going on?

Old Mrs. Zhao, who had been sitting, quickly stood up, and the ladies sitting on the side also stood up immediately.

Although the Zhao family is a big family in Yuncheng, compared with the Sun family, it is just a dwarf compared to a giant. What's more, the Zhao family's business still needs the care of the Sun family. Without the Sun family, the Zhao family is nothing.

Zhao Yan then felt a little panicked, and he gritted his teeth and said to Sun Xiao: "Young Master, I don't know why you came here... come here..." Zhao Yan was a little incoherent, he knew that Sun Xiao must have come with bad intentions.

Sun Xiao looked at the stuttering Zhao Yan in front of him and said, "I heard that the fourth young lady Zhao made a mistake and was punished by the family law. I didn't expect that the family law of your Zhao family is so harsh? I don't know what the fourth young lady did that you want to beat her to death?

After Sun Xiao finished speaking, Zhao Yan was stunned for a moment, stammering, not knowing what to say.

Although the Zhao family and the Sun family were engaged, the marriage was not easy to talk about openly. Logically speaking, Sun Xiao had no right to come to his family and make decisions, but now he questioned him righteously, and he didn't know how to answer for a moment.

He had no choice but to have someone bring a chair over and put it next to Sun Xiao, and said with a smile: "Master, today's events in our family have really embarrassed you. Your health is precious, how about I arrange to send you home to rest?

"No need." Sun Xiao's life and property now depend on this girl, and he can't let anything happen to him.

He glanced at Zhao Yan and said, "The fourth young lady is my wife-to-be. Although we haven't officially held the wedding yet, she will still be the eldest young lady of my Sun family. I really don't understand what heinous crime she committed that you want to beat her to death? What if someone dies?"

Sun Xiao's voice was cold and steady, and his words clearly defended Zhao Xihua, which made the Zhao family feel embarrassed.

Old Mrs. Zhao was speechless for a moment. For the first time, there was a trace of regret on her face. It was obvious that Sun Xiao was trying to stand up for Zhao Xihua. If she had known this, she should not have done anything to Zhao Xihua. But now it seemed that Sun Xiao had to give an explanation.

Zhao Siqi, who was standing next to her, felt deeply hurt when she heard Sun Xiao calling her "Young Madam" over and over again.

She cursed inwardly, how could this bitch still be protected by Young Master Sun? Was she worthy? The Young Master was so nice to the bitch, maybe he didn't know what mistake she made today?

She knew that Zhao Yan and the old lady did not dare to tell the reason why Zhao Xihua was beaten today because they were worried that the Sun family would know that Zhao Xihua had an affair with another man, which would offend the Sun family and cause trouble.

They were afraid of offending the Sun family, but Zhao Siqi was not. At worst, she could just choose a girl from the Zhao family's distant relatives.

She didn't want Zhao Xihua to have an easy life. This bitch should be beaten to death with sticks and kicked out of the Zhao family, so that she could die in disgrace.

Now the eldest son of the Sun family came out to protect her, it must be that the young master of the Sun family didn't know about this matter yet. If he knew, would he still be willing to protect her? Without the protection of the young master of the Sun family, how would this bitch survive?
