The Rebirth of an Orphan

But before Zhao Xihua could say anything, she heard messy footsteps coming from outside. Before she could see who it was, Gu Lun's nonchalant voice reached her ears.

"Young Master Sun is so elegant. He stayed up late at night and went to an unmarried girl's house to gossip about her. Young Master Sun, you need to change your bad habit of talking bad about people behind their backs."

Zhao Xihua suddenly stood up from the chair and looked closely to see Gu Lun, a tall man in a black suit, followed by Uncle Lin, who was out of breath.

Uncle Lin looked at Zhao Xihua in embarrassment. He did not expect that Gu Lun would just barge in to see the young lady.

"Miss..." Uncle Lin had a sad face. Why did all of them come here in the middle of the night?

"Uncle Lin, forget it, just go out." Zhao Xihua knew that Gu Lun was thick-skinned and no one could resist his roguery.

Looking at Gu Lun in front of him, who was carrying a suitcase with a dandy smile on his face, Sun Xiao suddenly felt a little disgusted.

It was the first time he met this important person around Deng Xiao. Although he was annoyed with the person in front of him, it was not convenient for him to lose his temper in front of Zhao Xihua, so he could only keep a cold face.

"Mr. Gu, please watch the way you speak. This is Yuncheng, not the main home of your Deng family in Kyoto." Young Master Sun has always been gentle to others, and he doesn't often say such cold words.

But Gu Lun put the suitcase next to the table and looked at Zhao Xihua and said with a smile: "Miss Zhao, this is..."

Gu Lun's handsome face has a bit of rogueness, but this rogueness does not make people feel disgusted. Instead, it adds a touch of evil charm and makes him look more handsome.

Sun Xiao didn't expect that he would be ignored by Gu Lun. His voice lowered: "Don't be so presumptuous."

"What do you mean by insolent?" Gu Lun sat on the chair, crossed his legs and looked at Sun Xiao. Zhao Xihua looked a little strange. He was obviously a subordinate, but in front of Sun Xiao, a young man from a noble family, he did not lose momentum at all. Instead, he seemed calm and composed.

Gu Lun glanced at Zhao Xihua and said, "I came here specially to visit the Fourth Miss, but you didn't even offer me a cup of tea. This is not the way to entertain guests."

Zhao Xihua gritted her teeth. "You still want to drink tea? I'm glad I didn't give you poison to drink."

Looking at the angry Zhao Xihua, he reached out and poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, nodded and smiled: "Good tea, good tea, the fourth lady is really beautiful and capable."

Zhao Xihua's voice also turned cold, "Mr. Gu, you came to my place so late at night, you are not just here to drink tea, right? Besides, men and women should not touch each other, it's not good for my reputation to do this, right?"

Gu Lun narrowed his eyes after hearing this, pointed at Sun Xiao with a not very good look on his face and said, "Isn't this Young Master Sun here too? Doesn't he think that sex is not allowed?"

Sun Xiao was suddenly filled with anger. This man's words were directed at him in every way, and he couldn't help but feel murderous.

Gu Lun saw the murderous intent that flashed across Sun Xiao's face. He looked at Zhao Xihua and smiled faintly, "Don't be angry, Fourth Miss. I just ran out of money for the hotel today, so I was thinking of working for you. So I thought I'd stay here for one night, and then I'll move to your newly opened Chinese medicine clinic tomorrow. I'll move out when you're ready to rent a house for me."

Zhao Xihua was so angry that her chest felt stuffy. She gritted her teeth and whispered, "You, get out."

Unexpectedly, Gu Lun burst out laughing and said, "I can't leave. If I leave, who will be your accountant?"

This is too much, this is simply teasing. Sun Xiao stood up suddenly and was about to get angry at Gu Lun, but he didn't expect to see Gu Lun deliberately lifted up his sleeves, revealing the badge on his arm.

Sun Xiao was stunned for a moment, and his head buzzed, making him freeze. Isn’t this the badge of the Minister of the Special Services Department of the Presidential Office?

He suddenly looked at Gu Lun who was drinking tea calmly, and he couldn't help but feel alert. Could it be that all the things that happened in Yuncheng recently were controlled by this person behind the scenes?

Sun Xiao sat down slowly, no longer daring to look down on the handsome man in front of him.

He looked at Zhao Xihua and smiled faintly: "Fourth Miss, it's too late and I should go back. Since this person is your newly hired assistant and you are my friend, I can't just sit there and do nothing. How about asking Mr. Gu to come with me? I still have a house under my name, so let me arrange a place for Mr. Gu to live."

Gu Lun smiled and said, "Master, you are too polite. It's just that it was Miss Zhao who hired me. It's up to Miss Zhao to decide where I live. I appreciate her kindness."

Although Sun Xiao found the words "others" irritating, he knew that this person was not an easy person to deal with. He could not act rashly before finding out the other party's true identity.

But he didn’t know how Zhao Xihua was involved with this person?

Zhao Xihua also felt a bit of a headache. The scene was a bit weird and the atmosphere was awkward. She had no choice but to ignore Gu Lun and said to Sun Xiao,

"Master, thank you for coming to see me. It's getting late. You should go back and rest. I'll have Uncle Lin deliver the herbs you need after I prepare them."

After being comforted by Zhao Xihua, Sun Xiao's face, which had turned blue due to Gu Lun's anger, eased a little.

He smiled and said, "Thank you, Fourth Miss." Then he glanced at Gu Lun and continued, "But you are a girl after all, so you should be careful of strangers who come up to you. If you really want something financial, I can introduce you to some famous accountants in Yuncheng.

Zhao Xihua smiled bitterly. How could someone like Gu Lun be replaced at will? How could it be that easy?

"Thank you, young master," Zhao Xihua said quickly, "I have already signed a contract with Mr. Gu, so there is no need to change people. Thank you, young master."

Then she glanced at Gu Lun, who was leisurely drinking tea in a chair, and called out to the outside: "Uncle Lin—" Uncle Lin, who had been waiting outside, came in quickly: "Miss, I'm here."

Zhao Xihua looked at Gu Lun and said, "Since Mr. Gu is my accountant, I can afford your food, clothing, housing and transportation."

Then he turned around and told Uncle Lin, "Uncle Lin, drive Mr. Gu to the hotel to rest. You have to pay all the expenses during this period. When the house rented for Mr. Gu is ready in a few days, please ask Mr. Gu to move in."

Sun Xiao was listening at the side and couldn't say anything. He knew that now was not the time to argue with Gu Lun. Before he figured out this man's background, he didn't know how to deal with this trouble.

Fortunately, Zhao Xihua's way of handling the matter was appropriate, and it was not convenient for him to interfere too much, so he had to tell Zhao Xihua that he would help her deal with the Ling family's affairs, and then left the villa where Zhao Xihua lived.
