The audience members present were equally overwhelmed with emotion, many already in tears. Hearing the song reminded them of people they had once loved.
This time, it wasn't just anyone; even the judge, superstar Jay Chou, was no exception.
When Jay Chou, the King of Pop, first heard Wang Qingge's song, he didn't think much of it, but as the song continued, it reminded him of an event from his youth.
No one knew that the famous superstar Jay Chou also had a love affair in his youth that he could never forget.
That was when he had just entered high school. At that time, Jay Chou, the superstar, was sixteen or seventeen years old, the age when he was just beginning to experience romantic feelings.
He met the love of his life in high school. They were deskmates at the time. She was gentle and kind, and the young and innocent Tianwang was captivated by her.
At that time, he didn't think that much about it, and he never thought about whether the two of them could be together.
All he knew was that he would marry no one but her in this lifetime.
But since it was the first time Jay Chou had encountered something like this, he was also shy, so he didn't dare to express his feelings to her, and so the matter was left unresolved.
But an unexpected event still occurred. Not long after, she had to transfer schools due to family matters. When he learned that she was transferring schools, Jay Chou, the superstar, also became anxious.
He really wanted to find an opportunity to explain his thoughts to the other party.
He found an opportunity, but until the very last moment, he didn't tell her what he had been hiding in his heart, and just watched her leave.
In the days that followed, the Heavenly King was filled with regret. He hated himself for not speaking up and for not exchanging contact information with her.
In the vast sea of people, it would be difficult for the Heavenly King to find the person he once deeply loved again.
It wasn't until he became famous and his influence grew that he had the ability to find someone.
Although the Heavenly King himself knew in his heart that after so much time, the other party might already have their own family.
But in order to put an end to this relationship completely, he decided to find her.
What the Heavenly King never expected was that although he found the person, the result was quite unexpected.
Because the person he deeply loved passed away from illness shortly after he transferred schools.
Upon receiving this news, the Heavenly King was devastated. He would rather the other person already had someone they liked than face this outcome.
But the facts are the facts, and he had to accept them. At that moment, the other party's family produced a photograph.
That's a photo of the Heavenly King and her, and it's the only photo that proves they ever knew each other.
The woman's family told the Heavenly King that she held this photo with her throughout her illness until she passed away.
It was at that moment that the Heavenly King realized that the other person also loved him, but they were both too shy to speak up first, which led to them missing out on each other.
If given another chance, the Heavenly King would not hesitate to express his feelings to the other party.
But all of that is no longer possible, just like the gray wolf on stage singing right now.
By the time the Heavenly King learned how to love, the other person had already gone far away and disappeared into the vast sea of people. Some people, once missed, are gone forever.
Recalling this painful past, the Heavenly King lowered his head and silently wiped away his tears.
...
Of the four judges, only superstar Jay Chou recalled this painful past event; Yan Ranran did as well.
Yan Ranran never expected that she would fall into the same trap again in less than ten minutes, just after being brought to tears by Gray Wolf's singing not long ago.
Moreover, this time it's much more serious than the last one.
The lyrics of this song, "Later," perfectly capture the essence of Yan Ranran and her ex-boyfriend.
She was wearing a pleated skirt when she first met her ex-boyfriend, and that's also mentioned in the lyrics of this song.
So, whether it's the lyrics or the artistic conception, Yan Ranran has a kind of illusion, as if these were all tailor-made for her.
She couldn't understand why this contestant named Gray Wolf kept making her cry and bringing back the things she least wanted to remember.
What did I do to offend him? Why is he torturing me like this?
Not long after the song "Later" started playing, Yan Ranran was completely captivated.
If the song "After I Left" made Yan Ranran feel regret and remorse for her love for her ex-boyfriend, then...
So now, this song, "Later," makes her feel like it's all her fault.
The appearance of this song gave her a misconception: did she not know how to love someone back then? Did she not know how to cherish someone?
Is this what forced the two people who were originally in love to separate?
Yes, that must be it. Now Yan Ranran finally understands why.
Just like the song says, love back then was so simple.
The two people fell deeply in love at first sight simply by meeting each other. This kind of love at first sight is so simple when you're young.
And it was precisely because of that youthful time
That's why it's so easy for someone you deeply love to get hurt.
Yan Ranran now deeply regrets her impulsive decision to break up with him.
Why not give the other person another chance? You've already given them so many chances, one more wouldn't have made a difference, so why didn't you give them one back then?
If she had given him another chance back then, things might not have turned out this way.
But now it's too late to say all this, even though she understands now, just like the song says.
She has finally learned how to love someone, but by the time she understood this, the person she wanted to cherish and love was no longer there.
Yan Ranran thought about herself; how she had treated her ex-boyfriend back then must have hurt him deeply.
I wonder what my ex-boyfriend thinks of me now? Will he smile or remain silent, like in the song?
Has this relationship I lost really just vanished like that? Have I really let go of it all?
If you can't let go now, then you've already lost love, so how can you salvage it?
The immense psychological pressure almost suffocated Yan Ranran, leaving her only able to silently shed tears.
Listening to the singer on stage, she no longer knew where she was; all she knew was that her heart was aching terribly.
Everything around her seemed to have nothing to do with her, but that was all just her imagination.
Because the song had already come to an end, before everyone had even snapped out of their immersion in the music, the song had already ended.
“There is a girl,”
"I love that boy."
