The Rebirth of an Orphan

Zhao Xihua's face changed, and she raised her other hand to slap Gu Lun. Gu Lun quickly stretched out his hand to block it, but unexpectedly, the other hand he was holding was broken free.

Zhao Xihua, who had already gotten into the car, wanted to open the door and get out. Gu Lun hurried to stop her, but he felt a chill on his neck and the dagger hidden in Zhao Xihua's hand was placed on his neck.

Gu Lun lowered his head and looked at the girl in front of him, smiling and said, "Congratulations, Fourth Miss, you are the first person who can threaten me, but swords have no eyes, be careful not to hurt yourself, otherwise your man will be distressed."

"Get out," Zhao Xihua's face was full of anger but he retracted the dagger, then got out of the car and walked to another one.

As he watched the pretty figure disappear from his sight, the playful expression on his lips became more intense.

"This girl is interesting, but she is really not likable. However..." He laughed to himself again: "I like her temper."

In late autumn, Gu Lun and Zhao Xihua stopped and walked along the way, which delayed them for half a month, and finally they took a boat to the port of Kyoto.

"Get off the boat," Gu Lun turned around and helped Zhao Xihua, who was wrapped in a fox fur coat, up.

Kyoto is located in the north, and the climate is much colder than Yuncheng. But after all, Kyoto is a big city, and there are many people and cars coming and going in the tall buildings.

Although Zhao Xihua has lived two lives, she has never been to Kyoto. This prosperous scene of Kyoto is the first time she has seen it.

"Master," Gu Lun's subordinate walked up to him and said, "The club has been arranged, and we are just waiting for the young lady to move in."

Zhao Xihua frowned. Club? Isn't it just going directly to Gu's house?

Gu Lun seemed to see Zhao Xihua's doubts and said softly, "Don't worry, Hua'er. I married you to be my wife, so there is no way I would arrange for you to live outside."

"It's just that we just traveled all the way from Yuncheng, and we are indeed a little tired. You still need to rest and recover your strength. I will send someone to pick you up to the Gu family in three days.

Zhao Xihua nodded and understood what Gu Lun meant. Arriving in Kyoto meant that a heart-pounding battle was about to begin.

Mrs. Hua from the Gu family was about to kill someone on the way, and now that she and Gu Lun have returned safely, no one knows what kind of storm is waiting for them.

Gu Lun turned around and helped Zhao Xi adjust the hood of her painted fox fur coat, then looked at her and said, "You follow Chang Feng to the hotel first. I have something to do. Everyone in the club is my people, so you can rest assured and have a good rest."

Zhao Xihua naturally agreed to everything, and then followed Gu Lun's confidant into the car on the side of the road.

The car drove steadily along the bustling streets of Kyoto towards the hotel arranged by Gu Lun. The two girls beside Zhao Xihua, Pingshui and Chunfeng, were a little excited. They leaned on the car windows to look outside, laughing in a low voice from time to time.

Zhao Xihua just looked at them with a calm smile. These two girls had suffered a lot following her, so now they should enjoy the brief happiness before the storm comes.

"Pingshui, look over there, isn't that where the Sun family's aunt lives?" Chunfeng pointed to a large mansion outside where the car was passing by.

Several guards were standing upright at the gate of the mansion, and on the plaque at the gate were inscribed three large characters: "Princess Garden".

Zhao Xihua's gaze swept across the three big characters, and the color in her eyes became much deeper. The death of her master was closely related to Miss Nangong, and one day she would have to deal with this place.

The car quickly turned off the busy main street and headed directly towards the west of Kyoto. Although this area is not as luxurious and grand as the high-rise buildings in the north, it is surrounded by mountains and rivers and built in a plum forest. It is estimated that it will have a unique flavor when the plum blossoms bloom in winter.

The car stopped in front of an antique house. "Madam, we're here." Changfeng respectfully opened the car door for Zhao Xihua.

Pingshui and Chunfeng also quickly got out of the car and helped Zhao Xihua walk into the yard. Zhao Xihua knew before that this was Gu Lun's own private club. He lived here alone before he returned to his ancestral home. Looking at the pine and cypress trees around the yard and the peach blossom forest that occupied half of the garden, Zhao Xihua smiled. She didn't expect that Gu Lun was such a pretentious person.

She followed Changfeng, looking around as he walked, and finally walked along the corridor to a courtyard in the east.

At first glance, this courtyard seems to be newly decorated. In addition to commonly used household items, the main room is basically filled with items that girls like. The bedroom is also completely new, and even the curtains have been replaced with sky blue gauze embroidered with delicate patterns.

Changfeng did not enter the bedroom. He just stood in the main room and whispered some things before leaving.

Pingshui and Chunfeng sorted out the things the Zhao family brought from Yuncheng. In fact, the eldest wife had already given all the dowry prepared for Zhao Xihua to Zhao Ziqin, so what ended up in Zhao Xihua's hands were just some low-quality silks and some outdated jewelry.

With such a meager dowry, not to mention marrying into the Gu family, even marrying into any other small family would be embarrassing.

Pingshui looked at her sister who was sitting by the window enjoying the scenery, and felt relieved. She believed that there would always be a way out, and her sister's matter would surely be a bright future.

Zhao Xihua was really tired after the bumpy journey all the way here. After eating and taking a shower, she went to bed early.

The other servants in the club also knew the status of this young lady in the young master's heart. He traveled thousands of miles to Yuncheng to marry her to Kyoto, which showed that he really valued her. Therefore, they were extremely careful and respectful in everything they did.

Zhao Xihua slept very soundly that night and woke up very early the next day. She was startled as soon as she opened her eyes. She didn't know when Gu Lun came back and sat on the edge of her bed, his eyes fixed on her.

Zhao Xihua sat up suddenly and tightened the quilt covering her body, "Get out." Zhao Xihua stared fiercely at Gu Lun, who walked into her bedroom without saying hello.

But Gu Lun completely ignored her and just looked at the woman in front of him who had just woken up.

The collar of her pajamas was loosened, revealing her delicate collarbone and her snow-white skin was as smooth as a baby's. It was as if the most beautiful elf in the world had broken into the room. She looked as lazy as a cat when she was sleeping, but now with her fur standing up, she looked even more adorable.

Gu Lun raised his hand and rubbed Zhao Xihua's already messy hair fiercely, which made Zhao Xihua so angry that she screamed, "Gu Lun, get out of here."

Zhao Xihua's face turned slightly red because of anger, and her clear and beautiful eyes glared at Gu Lun fiercely, already a little angry and embarrassed.

Gu Lun's lips curled up, and he stopped playing with the girl. He stood up, stretched, and said with a smile: "Get up first, wash up, change your clothes, and I'll take you somewhere later."

Seeing that Gu Lun's face finally looked serious, Zhao Xihua stopped slacking off. She knew that Gu Lun was taking her to a place so solemnly, probably because it was something very important.
