Chapter 1109 The Grim Reaper Dispelled by Song, the Heartfelt Words of Beijing Drifters (2/2)

Having stopped his suicidal attempt, Yang Ming slumped down by the window again.

Looking out the window at the distant city lights, I listened to Wang Yueheng's calm words on my phone: "As long as you're alive, there are infinite possibilities."

An unprecedented courage rekindled within him.

Yes, let's start over.

So what if I'm unemployed? So what if I'm in debt?

As long as he's alive, as long as he's still breathing, he still has a chance!

Yang Ming can't just admit defeat like this!

He picked up his phone, looked at Wang Yueheng's image on the screen, and silently typed two words: "Thank you."

This simple "thank you" may be as light as a mosquito's buzz, but it carries the weight of a thousand pounds.

...

"I pray here, I am lost here."

"I searched here, and I lost here too."

"Beijing Beijing~"

In the last few lines of the song.

Wang Yueheng's voice carried a complex and lingering emotion.

He sang softly and slowly, yet his voice struck everyone's hearts with a powerful impact.

The song slowly ended with repeated chanting and desolate guitar sounds.

As the guitar notes faded away.

Wang Yueheng lowered his head slightly, his face hidden in the shadow of the light, making his expression unclear.

He sat there quietly, seemingly still immersed in the emotions of the song.

The entire bar fell into a deathly silence that lasted for more than ten seconds.

"Clap clap clap clap..."

It's unclear who started it, but sporadic applause began.

They quickly coalesced into a thunderous torrent.

There were no screams or cheers, only heartfelt applause.

The bar patrons who came upon hearing the news applauded enthusiastically while wiping away uncontrollable tears.

"A salute to all those who have migrated to Beijing for work! A salute to everyone who works hard away from home!"

"This song is so heartbreaking!"

"I cried my eyes out in my rented room in Kyoto!"

"Thank you, Yue Heng, for singing our hearts out!"

"The world is vast, and we must live well for those brothers who can't hold on!"

"This is the power of music! It strikes right at the soul!"...

The live stream chat exploded at that moment.

Countless people were moved by this unexpected song.

"Thank you everyone for your patience in listening to this song."

"I'd like to share with you all the original intention behind writing this song."

"On my way here, I encountered a guy who wanted to jump off the bridge and end his life."...

As the applause subsided, Wang Yueheng finally raised his head.

His eyes were also a little red, and his voice was still a little hoarse.

"ah?"

"What's going on?"

"I just heard from a friend that someone was indeed trying to jump off the bridge at Siliqiao but was stopped..."

Upon hearing Wang Yueheng's first words after finishing his song, a gasp immediately erupted from the audience below the bar.

"His name is Xiaoshi, and he has been in Kyoto for ten years."

“He has always lived in a rented room. Today, he missed the bus because he helped someone out of kindness. He was late and was scolded by his boss. His childhood sweetheart left him for someone else. He feels that his life is dark and he has nowhere to turn.”

Wang Yueheng spoke slowly and calmly, but every word struck a chord in people's hearts.

I don't know if he'll ever hear this song.

"I don't know if this song can give him, or any of you who have had similar experiences, even just a little bit of strength."

Wang Yueheng paused, his gaze sweeping over every moved face in the audience.

"But I believe that in this city, in every big city, there are too many people like him."

"We came with dreams, and we gave our youthful sweat."

"We laugh, we cry, we struggle, and sometimes we feel like we're about to be swallowed up..."

"Maybe we won't be able to afford a house here in the end, maybe we'll have to leave eventually."

"But at least... we were here, and we lived authentically and passionately!"

"And as long as you're alive, there are endless possibilities."

"This song, 'Beijing Beijing,' is dedicated to Xiao Shi, and also to everyone who is wandering in a foreign land, persevering, or who has persevered in the past!"

There are no grand and inspiring words of encouragement, only simple narration and sincere empathy.

Through this song, Wang Yueheng completely released the repressed empathy he felt because of Shi Meng, and also expressed the collective feelings of countless wanderers.
