Chapter 139 The Music of Charming
Long Xi answered, “No! Since your consciousness returned to your body, we have never played the horrible Red Envelope Game in the WeChat group of our class. I am all right! What happened? Did you receive Mr. X’s message?”
Xiaolu said with a smile, “Okay, I’m just asking.”
A few days later came the night of Halloween.
The moon was like a silver plate nailed to the black velvet background of night, adding a touch of celebration to the human world.
The red leaves flew, echoing the gloomy lights on the streets.
The Xinghai Music Hall in X City was in a buzz.
The elegant classical song “Sadness of Love” echoed in the music hall, spreading to everyone in the audience. Some of them felt the music with their minds, but some of them had their attention wander. Yan Wangchuan, titled as the music artist of the new generation, “Music Elf Prince”, and “Music Soul Poet”, was playing this classic song on the violin.
This was the first piece of music he played tonight, with beautiful and moving notes coming out of his strings.
All the stage lights were turned off, with only the beam of the chasing spotlight covering him and his crystal-shelled violin.
He was dressed in a special style today!
Was that the shape of an angel?
He wore a suit with white feathers one white wing on his back.
It was only one wing instead of a pair. What did it represent? A broken angel?
He refined delicate makeup today and looked more handsome than his natural appearance.
His appearance immediately triggered the thunderous applause of the female audience. Seemingly, most of the females in the audience were attracted by his appearance.
It was said that the love from many of his fans began with his handsome appearance, then they became loyal due to his talents and fell in love with his diligence!
At this moment, Yan Wangchuan was completely immersed in his music world. He acted as if no one else was there. He wore a sad expression with tears in his eyes, like the god of music in the mortal world.
Below the stage, there were no empty seats.
Yan Wangchuan’s mother Ai Meiqi, girlfriend Yu Lanjie, and best friend Long Xi were sitting in the first row. Yan Wangchuan reserved the seats for them.
The audience displayed different responses. Some of them were deeply moved by the music, some were confused but still pretended to comprehend with an enjoyable expression, while some were inattentive due to having other things on their mind.
At the end of the music, applause thundered.
Yu Lanjie’s eyes were full of brightness. Because of her excitement, she nearly burst out crying.
Long Xi did not want to come because she knew that Lord Mo Kun had to be jealous about this.
However, Yu Lanjie insisted on asking Long Xi to come with her, while Ai Meiqi also pleaded with her to go. Then, she had to agree.
She looked at Yan Wangchuan on the stage. A sense of unreality and illusion came into her mind.
If comparing Lord Mo Kun to a dazzling diamond, Yan Wangchuan would be like a natural jade, faintly radiating warm light.
At the end of the music, Yan Wangchuan made a bow when holding his violin, saying in a sincere tone, “Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for coming! Without your support, I would not have reached this level! Today, I also hope to mainly show my gratitude to two women. One is my mother, the other is my beloved one. Ai Meiqi, my mom, struggled to bring me up after my father abandoned us! She worked so hard for 2,800 yuan per month, but paid nearly 2,000 yuan for my studies! She was reluctant to spend a penny on herself and saved to be able to buy enough nutrition for me… After the divorce, she met a good man who could give her a stable and rich living condition but she broke up with him because the man hoped to send me back to my father…”
Yan Wangchuan choked a few times with sobs during his talk!
Ai Meiqi, below the stage, could not hold her emotions in and burst into tears.
Yu Lanjie, sitting to her right, handed her tissues warmheartedly, while Long Xi, sitting on her left, patted her back to ease her emotions.
Ai Meiqi was fond of Long Xi since the latter was young, and she even considered Long Xi as her own daughter.
Long Xi met Yan Wangchuan again in high school. Even if Yan Wangchuan did not talk to her, she always visited Ai Meiqi. In this way, she had a good relationship with Ai Meiqi like in the old days.
Ai Meiqi had a slim figure and dressed in a cheongsam with the prints of ink landscapes designed by Long Xi, while a pearl necklace sent by Yan Wangchuan was around her neck, making her look especially dignified and noble.
On the stage, Yan Wangchuan cooled down and continued to say, “Today, I have a song for my mom. It’s adapted from the episode “Daughter’s Love” of the TV series “Journey to the West”, Liu Xiao Ling Tong’s version. “This is my mom’s favorite song. Due to the copyright issues, I didn’t add this on to my personal music album. However, I want to sing it to my mother in my hometown tonight and share this with her live. Mom, you’ve had long days! Mom, you are still beautiful. In my heart, you’re the most beautiful woman!”
Ai Meiqi applauded with tears.
Many females in the audience at Ai Meiqi’s age were wet in their eyes. Who did not want to have such a filial son? Mothers always had tender minds.
Yan Wangchuan said, “Mom, actually, I have a small wish that I hope to help you to find your Mr. Right through this stage! Mom, I sincerely hope that you will meet another suitable man to spend the rest of your life together…”
Ai Meiqi was moved as she shook her head with surprise and shyness. The expression on her face was complicated.
Following the prelude of “Daughter’s Love”, Yan Wangchuan started to sing with emotion: “When mandarin ducks lean close to each other and butterflies fly in pairs, the spring sceneries bloom in the park. I ask everyone personally, is my mom beautiful? Is my mom beautiful? You raised me through hardships. You raised me but give up a life of ease…”
Yan Wangchuan broke down at the end of the song.
Thunderous applause broke out among the audience.
Yan Wangchuan revealed a cheeky expression on his face and said with a smile, “Thank you for the applause! But the sound seems not to be loud enough! Can I ask for an encore? Come on. Let’s applaud for love again!”
Laughter came from the audience and they worked very well to create a higher decibel level of applause.
Yu Lanjie and Long Xi could not help laughing. It was their first time seeing Yan Wangchuan play a joke in front of so many people.
However, his next sentence was adding fuel to the fire, suddenly exciting the audience.
He said, “I am very happy today! I have just said that there are two very important women in my life, one of whom is my mom. The other is my beloved one. Tonight, my girlfriend is here, sitting among you. Guess who she is. Well, she’s really my girl, instead of an imposter!”
These words made the slightly dignified atmosphere warm up again.
Some of the ladies smiled and pushed each other, looking at each other and whispering.
Several brave girls raised their hands and rushed to say, “It’s me. It’s me.”
Yu Lanjie lowered her head because of shyness, but felt extremely excited in her mind.
Yan Wangchuan said with a smile, “Okay, it’s time to introduce her. She is sitting over there—”
Everyone’s eyesight followed his finger pointing at Yu Lanjie.
Yu Lanjie had long hair and wore a linen dress, standing up to answer him and waving her hands to everyone with shyness.
Yan Wangchuan made a bow toward Yu Lanjie with a smile and said, “Thank you, Lanlan. We met each other when I was just an ordinary man. You have never given up on me and have accompanied me to reach this level. Without you, what should I do?”
Yu Lanjie burst out crying and covered her face with her hands, sitting down with tears and a smile on her face.
The staff pushed out an advanced crystal piano.
Yan Wangchuan changed into another coat in the European retro-palace style, which was Long Xi’s L&M. He stepped out elegantly and sat next to the piano.
His movements were a little stiff as he lowered his eyes. His shoulders were slightly shivering. He seemed to be trying to restrain his emotions.
Then, he took a deep breath and turned on the switch of the microphone placed above the piano and said softly, “Right here waiting.”
The audience fell into silence.
All the stage lights were turned off, with only a beam of chasing spotlight covering him and his crystal-shelled violin.
He sang and played the piano at the same time. “Oceans apart day after day, and I slowly go insane. I hear your voice on the line, but it doesn’t stop the pain. If I see you next to never, how if we say forever. Wherever you go, whatever you do, I will be right here waiting for you. Whatever it takes, or how my heart breaks, I will be right here waiting for you…”
Everyone had to admit that he had done a very good job, including his voice, skills, and emotions. His performance was on par with the original singer, Richard Marx.
In fact, he did not just imitate Marx, but could sing out his own feelings, experienced but not decadent. It made people feel sad but could heal their wounds.
At this moment, he was so soulful with tears in his eyes, totally different from the man that activated the atmosphere in a slightly cheeky way.
Right here waiting… right here waiting? Right here waiting for the love from the memories, but the old days would not come back?
