Chapter 444 Red Rose and White Rose_3
The music was rich and carried an indescribable sadness.
At first, everyone was looking forward to this piece.
However, when the music actually started, everyone became puzzled.
The prelude seemed a bit too long.
Let me take one more look at you, from south to north♪.
Zhou Yuwen started singing, his gaze unconsciously falling on Su Qing.
Like being blinded by the Fifth Ring Road.
"Anhe Bridge North" is not considered an exceptionally good song, just above average, but it was suitable for such an evening event.
Zhou Yuwen hadn't really prepared, but upon seeing Su Qing in the auditorium that day, he suddenly wanted to sing this song, reminiscing about the times they spent together.
Not to mention the lyrics, but the melody was indeed melancholic.
The next few lines.
I know those summers♪
Are like youth, never to return♪
Replacing dreams can only be reluctantly accepted♪.
This song didn't quite fit Zhou Yuwen's style; though it's a good song, others listening found it strange, somehow lacking something.
Could it be that the expectations were too high?
Anyway, after the song finished, everyone felt inexplicably oppressed.
It makes sense when you think about it.
It's senior year, graduation is near, and you can only go to college once in a lifetime.
After today, it's really goodbye to college.
Thinking of this, the seniors sitting in the front couldn't help but get teary-eyed.
The lyrics of the song were very cliché, like the boastful words of that year, dismissed with a laugh as youth goes by, leaving me trapped in the city, remembering you.
Let me taste the autumn wine one more time.
Line by line, the lyrics weighed heavy on people's hearts.
Zhou Yuwen was looking at Su Qing.
He didn't know why he wanted to sing this song.
But Zheng Yanyan, in a rare moment of insight, nudged Su Qing with her hand and said, "Hey, Su Qing, this song was written for you by Zhou Yuwen! Definitely for you!"
Su Qing didn't say a word.
Her face showed no reaction.
Facing Zhou Yuwen's gaze.
Su Qing turned and went backstage without saying a word.
"Hey, Su Qing, why are you leaving?" Zheng Yanyan was a bit angry, feeling that Zhou Yuwen had done more than enough.
Seeing Su Qing leave, Zhou Yuwen felt helpless, but also relieved.
Just like in the song.
I know that summer.
Is as clear as it never returning...
So hello, goodbye...
So,
Hello,
Goodbye...
As the last lyrics fell, the song ended, and there was a moment of silence before a wave of applause erupted.
Among the applause, some truly resonated with the song, feeling that their youth was slipping away.
Of course, there were also those who were Zhou Yuwen's fans to begin with, and who became even more enthusiastic after hearing this song.
Indeed, Zhou Yuwen's talent was unparalleled.
Even Jiang Xinyi and Liu Jing liked this song a lot.
As Liu Jing put it, this song might not be as immediately striking as the previous ones, but the melody was thought-provoking, making it a good song.
After Zhou Yuwen finished the song, Jiang Xinyi went up to present flowers.
Then Zhou Yuwen smiled, and Jiang Xinyi confidently took Zhou Yuwen off the stage.
This scene left Zheng Yanyan beside them feeling quite jealous, almost biting her clothes.
When Zhou Yuwen came in front of Liu Jing and the others, Liu Jing smiled slightly and said, "This song is really well written, how long did it take you?"
"Wrote it a long time ago," Zhou Yuwen said.
At this time, Zhou Yuwen was in the audience, and quite a few female students were watching him, talking among themselves.
Some seemed to be saying he was very handsome.
"Really handsome."
Zhou Yuwen actually had little interest in this event; he asked Jiang Xinyi if she wanted to leave early.
Jiang Xinyi nodded and said, of course.
The program on stage was still going to continue.
The guest host, Shen Yu, said, alright, thank you Zhou Yuwen for bringing us this beautiful song.
"The evening may seem to end, and the song reaches its conclusion, but our youth will not fade with a laugh like in the song. Many years later, we will still gather joyfully, hoping that by then, we will still maintain our passion."
By this time, Zhou Yuwen was already ready to leave.
But then he heard Shen Yu say from the stage.
"Next, let's welcome, from Architecture Class 13-1, student Su Qing to bring us the last performance of the evening."
"Who?"
"Su Qing?"
Su Qing had some influence at the school, she was about to become the student council president.
But suddenly announced her withdrawal from student life.
Now she was suddenly participating in the program.
Singing?
No, wasn't she tone-deaf?
Everyone was curious.
Shen Yu looked at them.
Smiling slightly.
"Student Su Qing, performing the final song."
"Eason Chan's 'Red Rose'!"
"Everyone, welcome with applause!"
With a "pop" sound!
As Shen Yu finished speaking.
The lights in the auditorium for the evening event suddenly went out!
