Chapter 2636: Chapter 2572: The One Who Calls Him Sixth Brother
"Yes."
Jiang Shiheng put the cup of tea down again.
Of course, he wouldn’t drink tea offered by strangers outside, especially when this place was arranged by Lu Shuangshuang.
The bodyguards wouldn’t drink it either.
Although the rain had lessened a bit, it continued to drizzle, and the sky remained gloomy and dark.
Other than the sound of rain, there was no other noise in this small temple, creating a desolate feeling.
Just then, a flute sound suddenly came from the backyard.
The flute melody was clear and lingering, with a hint of little naughty playfulness, seemingly cutting through the loneliness.
It was an ancient tune from D State.
Upon hearing the flute, Jiang Shiheng’s body shook.
A scene seemed to appear before his eyes: the seaside, the beach, the rocks, and on the rocks sat a young girl playing a bamboo flute.
He stood not far from the rocks, slowly walking toward her.
The girl seemed to notice his approach and stopped playing, waving her hand and calling toward him.
"Sixth Brother!"
Sixth Brother!
Jiang Shiheng suddenly stood up, looking toward the backyard.
This, this is...
He was about to step inside when a bodyguard stopped him, "Sixth Young Master."
It might be a trap.
Why did the flute sound suddenly arise? Weren’t there supposed to be no outsiders here? Could it be the Senior Master playing the flute?
"Follow."
Jiang Shiheng said solemnly, bypassing the bodyguard and walking forward.
"Yes."
Following the flute sound, they entered the backyard, passing through a courtyard, and exited through another rear door. Once outside, they realized they had left the small temple and could see the beach.
The flute sound was still outside.
Could the flute sound on the beach drift so far and reach their ears?
"Sixth Young Master, it’s over there," a bodyguard pointed to a place.
A short distance from the beach, there was a very small stone pavilion. Inside sat a person, back facing them, appearing to be a slender woman with long hair flowing, wearing a floral long dress, playing the flute facing the sea.
Jiang Shiheng ignored the continuing rain and walked toward her step by step.
"Sixth Brother..."
This voice echoed again in his ears, gentle and full of cheer.
Just hearing her call him that, he could feel her joy and happiness, as if seeing him was her greatest joy.
His head began to ache dully, the scene before him swayed, and his eyes seemed covered in a thin mist, making it difficult to see clearly.
"Sixth Young Master, let’s go check it out first," a bodyguard stepped past him, striding toward the pavilion.
Jiang Shiheng paused.
The bodyguard reached the pavilion, seemingly said something to the woman, and the flute sound abruptly stopped.
Then the woman stood up, said something back, and looked over in this direction.
In the moment she turned her head, Jiang Shiheng felt something in his mind burst as if pierced by a needle, his vision darkened, and he staggered.
The bodyguard beside him immediately reached out to support him.
"Sixth Young Master!"
The bodyguard in the pavilion heard the commotion, turned around, and made a move to rush back when the woman suddenly drew a knife and stabbed him fiercely in the abdomen.
The bodyguard’s eyes widened, and he swung a hand to strike at her.
Quickly dodging, the woman watched him clutch his wound, with blood rushing out, her eyes cold.
The bodyguard mustered all his strength and shouted toward them, "Quick, take the Sixth Young Master away!"
