Rebirth: Dark Princess

0The man raised his head and looked at Soong Shiyan when he heard her. He shook his head with all his might, as if he was trying to shake a drum.    

    

"Since you are not a mute, then why don't you know how to speak?" Soong Shiyan asked with interest when she saw the man's expression.    

    

When the man heard this, he remained silent for a long time. It was as if he was also considering this question. The sadness in his eyes became more and more intense, causing people to feel pity for him.    

    

Soong Shiyan saw that his entire body was shrouded in an inexplicable and inexplicable sadness. She recalled her previous inappropriate words and actions, and somewhat remorsefully said to him, "I'm sorry, I didn't say those words on purpose." Saying so, he extended his hand towards the man.    

    

When Soong Shiyan came back to her senses, she looked at her outstretched hand in astonishment. She really didn't expect that after experiencing such an incident, she would actually extend her hand towards this man! She must have been possessed by a ghost just now!    

    

Soong Shiyan hesitated and was about to withdraw her hand when she saw a trace of puzzlement in the man's clear eyes. Her smile was a little forced, but seeing the situation, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Give me your hand, I'll pull you up."    

    

The man looked at Soong Shiyan and stretched out his hand hesitantly. However, before his hand could touch Soong Shiyan's hand, he quickly withdrew it.    

    

"What's wrong? Is there a problem? " Soong Shiyan asked doubtfully when she saw this. She didn't expect that this man would be even more resistant to contact with others than she was.    

    

Could it be that this man was like the others had said, that there was something wrong with his brain? No, from the looks of his symptoms, it seemed more like autism. However, her impression of autistic patients did not seem to be that easy to please strangers. Then, what was the situation with the man in front of him? Soong Shiyan pondered.    

    

The man shook his head in silence. After that, he stretched out his hand and stopped mid-air, only one hand away from Soong Shiyan's hand. Soong Shiyan couldn't bear it any longer. She grabbed his hand and used all her strength to pull him up from the ground, who was still in shock.    

    

After she let go of his hand, the man jumped far away as if he had been electrocuted. He looked left and right, not daring to meet Soong Shiyan's eyes.    

    

"Did you want to hear me play the violin when you were standing in the rain?" Soong Shiyan asked the man beside her as she walked towards another pavilion in the distance.    

    

A trace of a smile emerged on the man's face as he heard Dudian's words. He nodded like a chick pecking rice.    

    

"In that case, I'll play a song for you that I like the most, as compensation for offending you earlier." Soong Shiyan said with a faint smile.    

    

This pavilion was a bit more remote, so there were only a few people inside that were able to avoid the rain. Soong Shiyan and the man walked into the pavilion and stood to their left and right.    

    

She took the violin from its case, picked up the bow, and began to play. The man stood in a corner of the pavilion. Only after seeing Soong Shiyan playing the violin with her eyes closed did he dare to secretly size her up.    

    

When the song ended, Soong Shiyan opened her eyes, put away her bow, and returned the violin to its case.    

    

"Miss, this song is so beautiful. If I may ask, which master's work is this? I can't believe I didn't hear it. I'm so ashamed! " A young man with glasses and a literary aura walked up to Soong Shiyan and asked.    

    

"It's not a masterpiece. My father wrote it for my mother when he was young." When Soong Shiyan saw the bespectacled man approaching her, she unconsciously took two steps back, avoiding his sight, and replied. There was a trace of pride in her voice. In the next second, a hint of sadness appeared on her face. Now, both her father and mother were no longer alive. She was the only person left floating around. She did not know what she could do to take revenge for her father and take back the Soong Family! The current her couldn't even survive, much less seek revenge.    

    

"With such a man who loves himself, miss, your mother is happy!" The man said with a smile.    

    

Hearing this, Soong Shiyan's expression became a little dazed. If Dad really loved Mom that much, then there wouldn't even be Yan Duoya. If his father and Yan Duoya's mother hadn't had a relationship back then, perhaps his mother wouldn't have died. Perhaps his father would still be alive and well today.    

    

"Miss, what's wrong?" the man asked worriedly when he saw Soong Shiyan's dazed expression.    

    

"Oh, nothing." Soong Shiyan came back to her senses and forced a smile at the man with the glasses. With the zither case on her back, she stood in a corner. She looked at the man beside her and her heart inexplicably became relaxed. She couldn't help but ask, "I still don't know what your name is." It was only then that Soong Shiyan remembered that this man didn't know how to talk. Thus, she said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I forgot …"    

    

Hearing this, the man rummaged through his pockets for something, but he couldn't find it. He was so anxious that his face turned red.    

    

"What are you looking for?" Soong Shiyan couldn't help but ask when she saw how pitiful he looked.    

    

The man grinned. He dipped his hand into the rain and squatted down to write.    

    

"Hu-Ming — Shen, your name is Huo Mingshen?" Soong Shiyan looked at the words on the ground and asked with a smile.    

    

The man nodded and pointed at Soong Shiyan with a smile.    

    

Looking at Huo Mingshen's clear eyes, he didn't know why, but Soong Shiyan didn't want to lie to him. After a moment of hesitation, she decided to be honest with him. "My name is …"    

    

"Found it!" A group of man in black rushed in from the rain, dashing towards the pavilion.    

    

Upon seeing this, Soong Shiyan's face turned pale. Could it be Yinn Haoming or Yan Duoya's men? At this point, Soong Shiyan was about to leave.    

    

Unexpectedly, Huo Mingshen was one step ahead of her. In a hurry, he stuffed something into his hands, then quickly ran out of the pavilion and disappeared into the rain. As for the aggressive man in black, they dashed towards the direction that Huo Mingshen left in.    

    

Soong Shiyan was shocked. She leaned against the pillar of the pavilion and panted heavily. She opened her palm. It was a key.    

    

Key? Soong Shiyan was slightly surprised. Could it be, man in black, who was chasing Huo Mingshen, was here for this key? Then, what secret was this key hiding? Huo Mingshen, why would he give this key to me without worry? Huo Mingshen, this man with eyes as clear as a lake, was not as simple as she thought? Then, Huo Mingshen, where did he come from?    

    

… ….    

    

"Jing Sung, so you are here! Your little brother is crying right now and is looking for you everywhere. Cen Mu rushed through the rain to the park and finally found her in a pavilion.    

    

Jing Sung was Soong Shiyan's current alias. When Soong Shiyan left the Sky Bridge, Xiaohu was still asleep, so she had to ask Cen Mu to look after Xiaohu.    

    

Soong Shiyan hurriedly put the key in her pocket and followed Cen Mu out of the rain towards the Sky Bridge.
