Perfect Superstar - Chapter 74
Chapter 74
Lu Chen exhaled a breath of alcohol against the dusty microphone . He said, “I want to sing this song, first of all, to Gao He, the eldest in our dormitory, hoping that he will always be so optimistic and open-minded, and then to all who have had ideals and dreams!”
Because he was drunk, Lu Chen actually has a lot to say in his heart, but he doesn’t want to say anything, so he’ll express it through singing!
This song is for Gao He, for his friends, for everyone, and for himself .
“Good!”
Gao He and Wan Hongzhi shouted loudly, and no matter what Lu Chen sang and whether he sang it well or not, they just wanted to cry happily, laugh happily and spend this last period of time before graduation happily .
Many people in the public square noticed the movement here and gathered around to watch the hustle and bustle . Several of them were students from Jianghai University, who are pointing and laughing at Lu Chen .
Which senior brother is drunk and fooling around here?
Lu Chen doesn’t care .
He played the guitar and began to sing along with the rhythm .
“Dreams of grandeur and heroism
To see the splendor of the world
The fantasies of a youthful soul
Now you wander the ends of the earth
The girl who once broke your heart
She’s gone without a trace
Love always brings both joy and agony
It once covered you with wounds
……”
Because he was drunk, his singing is no longer so clear, but has a trace of sad vicissitudes of life, deep and contains the power of soul cry . It has instantly attracted the ears of the people present .
This is a song that they have never heard before .
Gao He didn’t laugh anymore because he wasn’t too drunk that he couldn’t hear the lyrics .
Lu Chen’s song is like a sledgehammer cast in copper and iron, hitting him in his heart again and again, causing the nearly two-meter-tall man bow up involuntarily and tremble .
The girl who once broke your heart, she’s gone without a trace, love always brings both joy and agony, it once covered you with wounds – isn’t he singing about him?
The next moment, the song suddenly became loud and high .
“……
Dilililidilililidada~
Dilililidilililidada,
Dilililidilililidada,
Walking the road ahead
Dilililidilililidada~
Dilililidilililidada,
Dilililidilililidada,
There’s pain but also beauty
……”
More and more people were attracted by the song . At first, only a dozen or 20 people have gathered, which soon increased to tens and then hundreds, forming a large circle in the square .
Lu Chen turned a blind eye to this . His mind was completely immersed in the artistic conception of the song, expressing all his accumulated emotions thoroughly through the song .
“……
Whenever the sadness comes over me,
I stand and watch the ocean waves
Remembering those friends and companions
How many are still asleep?
Let us drain this glass of wine
True men have hearts vast as the sea
Seen the world, felt pleasure and pain
Still, a pure smile warms the heart like nothing else
……”
The huge square, as if it had become a stage for Lu Chen alone, all those noise and noisy movements disappeared . Only his song is reverberating, impacting, and shocking!
Although he was holding a broken guitar that’s only worth a few hundreds of dollars in his arms, although he was facing a dirt stained old microphone, although the quality of the loudspeaker was not good, although…
But none of this undermines the charm of the song .
It is a memorial to the youth and a declaration of no regret for the past . When it crosses the barrier of space and appeared in this world, it can still move everyone! “Let us drain this glass of wine, true men have hearts vast as the sea, seen the world, felt pleasure and pain . ”
Whether it is Gao he, Wan Hongzhi, or Zhou Rui, their faces all showed a smile .
Especially Gao He, his breakup with Wang Xiaoling, like a thorn that’s stuck in his heart, have been painful . Although on the surface, he has been laughing and looked like he doesn’t care at all, but only he himself knows the heartache .
Lu Chen’s song made him feel relieved .
No matter how many regrets they have had, no matter what they have lost, they have had sincere friendship, love and the best time on campus!
A real man should have an ocean-like mind and be able to withstand countless storms .
When Lu Chen began to sing for the second time, the number of people that have gathered reached hundreds . Many people raised their mobile phones to take pictures of him, while more people listened quietly .
Until he finished singing .
In an instant, warm applause quickly broke out in the crowd, such as “Good singing”, “Another song” and so on, pushing the atmosphere to the climax .
Many people took out the coins in their pockets and put them in the open guitar case on the ground .
They all thought that Lu Chen was a street singer .
“Thank you everyone!”
Lu Chen bowed and thanked them, and then returned the guitar to the real street singer next to him: “Thank you!”
The other party ignorantly took the guitar . When Lu Chen turned around and left, he seems like he had woken up from a dream, and asked, “Friend, what’s the name of this song and where can the music score be downloaded?”
Lu Chen turned around and answered, “This song is called “Once You”, I wrote it myself . ”
The street singer, with his guitar in his arms, was dumbfounded and watched him walk away .
“Old Three, when did you get so good?”
On the way back to the dormitory, Gao He couldn’t help asking, “Did you really write the song yourself?”
Although he didn’t know much about pop music, he can tell that it’s a really good song .
It’s hard to believe that Lu Chen wrote it himself .
Lu Chen calmly said, “Yes, I make money by singing in the Capital!”
“Old Three is really awesome!”
Wan Hongzhi said excitedly, “I think he’s very suitable to be a star . He’s handsome enough and can sing and write songs . ”
Zhou Rui cried, “Well, that was really good . How many more bottles shall we drink?”
He still hasn’t woken up from his drunken state .
The other three couldn’t help but laugh, and dragged Zhou Rui back to their dormitory, and then they fell asleep .
That night, Lu Chen kept having a dream .
In his dream, he returned to the familiar and strange world, like a wandering ghost, walking in the secular world like a passer-by, watching the end of prosperity and the separation of joys and sorrows .
Sometimes he is Xu Bo, sometimes he is Mo Ran, sometimes he is Fang Mingyi…
Achoo!
It was unknow how much time has passed; Lu Chen suddenly felt a strange itch in his nostrils . He couldn’t help but sneeze loudly, and also woke up .
Lu Chen opened his eyes and the first thing he saw was a girl with round face, round eyes and smiling eyes . In her hand was a small brush used by Wan Hongzhi to practice writing .
Lu Chen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “Class Leader Cao!”
Cao Xiuzhu said with a smile, “I can’t even call you guys, who slept late, to wake up . Get up and have breakfast!”
Lu Chen looked down, and saw that Gao He and the rest are gone and have probably went somewhere else .
He sniffed and said, “Minced pork porridge with preserved eggs, bacon burger, uh, and fragrant soybean milk!”
Cao Xiuzhu was shocked: “You can smell it?”
She took out the hamburger and porridge and passed them to Lu Chen .
Lu Chen smiled and said, “if you work at KFC for a few months, you’ll be able to recognize those with a smell . Thank you, class leader!”
He was not polite . He stood up and received the breakfast . He sat at the edge of Gao He’s bed and ate directly .
Cao Xiuzhu hesitated for a moment and sat down beside Lu Chen, “Lu Chen, Wang Ying asked me to ask you how you are doing . She said that her uncle’s company in Hangzhou was going to recruit people, if you…”
Cao Xiuzhu deliberately separated him from the rest of his roommates, that is, she had something to say to Lu Chen alone .
She has always believed that Lu Chen and Wang Ying are a good match .
“No need . ”
Lu Chen instantly lost his appetite . He put down his hamburger and said to Cao Xuizhu, “Class leader, thank Wang Ying for me, but I have found the right job . ”
Wang Ying was his ex-girlfriend, and they broke up after his father died .
At that time, that incident dealt a great blow to Lu Chen .
Cao Xiuzhu bit her lip and asked, “Do you still hate her?”
It was Cao Xiuzhu who introduced Wang Ying to Lu Chen . Their breakup made her feel guilty all the time .
“Hate her?”
Lu Chen shook his head and said, “That’s all in the past . I’m fine now . I don’t really blame her . ”
And I’ll just consider her as a passer-by .
Cao Xiuzhu gave him a deep look at him and said, “Lu Chen, you have changed . ”
Lu Chen smiled and said, “People will always change . ”
He used to be young and frivolous . Now, he has really matured after he has experienced drastic changes in his family and the life of a drifter in the capital, as well as the three memories of the vicissitudes of life in his dream .
Perhaps the only thing that remains the same is the warm blood in his heart .
“How are you and your family? What are your plans after graduation?”
He changed the topic as he did not want to talk about himself any more .
Cao Xiuzhu replied, “We will stay in Hangzhou after graduation and get married after two years of stability . ”
“Congratulations!”
Lu Chen said with a smile, “At that time, you must remember to invite me to the wedding party!”
There are tears, there are laughter, life is always like this .
