concert
As soon as she finished speaking, all three pairs of chopsticks were put down at the same time, and they all looked at her.
She seemed a little overwhelmed, but since she had asked the question herself, she had to grit her teeth and continue talking.
She told him that she and Zheng Ruoqian were high school classmates, and that he later went to H country to pursue his dreams. They never lost contact, and later, after their parents passed away, they confessed their true feelings to each other and got together.
Wei Xuan didn't say much, but took her hand and asked, "Have you been with Zheng Ruoqian for many years?"
Xu Changjia nodded. It has been two or three years. He didn't want to make it public before because he didn't want to interfere with his career or my studies.
Professor Xu, with a stern face, continued, "Then why are you willing to make it public now?"
Of course, it's because they are now powerful enough to not be afraid of these rumors.
Professor Xu and Xu Tonghe felt somewhat indignant that their newly adopted daughter/sister was about to be handed over to someone else.
But if you think about it carefully, how many days have they actually spent with this daughter/sister? Zheng Ruoqian was by her side when her biological parents passed away. Wouldn't it be better to have another person who loves her? Why bother with these trivial details?
Professor Xu turned and left. Xu Tonghe then tidied up the dishes and asked his mother and sister to sit in the living room and eat the freshly washed strawberries and blueberries.
Wei Xuan took off a jade bracelet from her own hand and put it on Xu Changjia's hand. Xu Changjia wanted to return it to his godmother, but was refused.
No matter how she tried, the bracelet seemed to be permanently attached to her hand, and she couldn't take it off.
Xu Tonghe then brought over a plate of cookies and, with a smile, explained to her in detail the origin of the bracelet.
It was originally left by his grandmother to his mother and his unborn granddaughter before she passed away, but they didn't expect that the baby would be a boy, which made the family feel a little regretful.
After I adopted Changjia as my goddaughter, I always thought about passing the other bracelet on to you. Today is the perfect opportunity, so please accept it without worry.
Xu Changjia couldn't refuse after several attempts, so he had no choice but to accept it. However, he was thinking about how to make up for it in other ways, so that they wouldn't suffer a loss.
She was originally going back to her small apartment, but she was unusually free these past two days, and her godmother invited her to stay and rest for the night. They would all be at work on Monday, so she couldn't very well refuse.
I chatted with my family until after nine o'clock before going back to my room. I fell asleep while video chatting with Zheng Ruoqian. It was warm and reassuring.
In the dead of night, her memories detached from her brain and re-scanned and absorbed the information of this world.
He had expected some new information to be given to Xu Changjia, but it remained as indifferent as ever, sitting motionless in Xu Changjia's mind.
The winter of HX2125 was also a year of frequent good news.
That year, Xu Changjia went from being a spectator to being on stage, winning the 2015 Best Performing Literary Book Award and the Weibo Most Popular New Book of the Year. He even made it into the top three of CCTV's annual book recommendation list on Weibo.
She never imagined that, given a second chance, she would have the opportunity to stand on the podium and win the honor that belonged to her.
Her relatives and friends sat in the audience, applauding enthusiastically and wishing her well. The director was also very helpful, frequently showing close-ups of people she knew while she was speaking on stage.
Many viewers who watched the live stream expressed their feelings afterward:
[Could we pack them all together and take them on a variety show? I love watching interactions between true friends like that!]
[To the person upstairs, I think you're right. I also want to see them as a group on a variety show +1]
[Yes, yes, I agree. Reply with "1" if you want to see it.]
[I've deducted 10086+ points]
......
She lay in bed late at night, reading these comments to Zheng Ruoqian. She found them somewhat amusing, but it didn't seem like it was wrong to have such thoughts.
However, these days everyone is very busy, and they don't have much time to get together.
For her, the second season of "Old Dreams of Mountains and Rivers" is being scheduled in full swing. With the documentary in hand, her new book also needs to be published simultaneously. She spends 25 hours a day working on her manuscript, so where would she find the time to participate in variety shows like this?
Even if you have such thoughts, put them aside for now. Who knows, you might have new ideas and thoughts a few years later. After all, the entertainment industry is ever-changing.
Zheng Ruoqian also received an invitation to record the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. He planned to bring several trainees from "Galaxy Reserve" to be his backup dancers and follow him to a bigger stage.
Hsu Chang-chia also asked the question he had always wanted to ask, "Now that you have so many representative works, have you ever thought about holding your own concert?"
He not only thought about it, but he already had a plan in mind. Now that his beloved asked, she would definitely fully support his decision.
"Yes, I plan to start the approval process in various places after the New Year, and then begin preparations for the concert."
"Jiajia, what do you think about holding my first solo concert in Junzhou, where we just met? It's also our hometown."
A single sentence seemed to transport the two back to that summer, to the tranquility beneath the trees, to the lingering, melodious piano music inside...
“I think it’s a good idea. So, would you like to hold your last concert in the South Shore, where we will eventually settle down and live?”
The future, such a distant word, yet it seems so close at hand. Will he marry Zheng Ruoqian, have children, and raise offspring? Will they be as multi-talented and passionate about the stage as he is?
Her thoughts were wandering, and Zheng Ruoqian was also somewhat conflicted, feeling that he wasn't good enough.
To be honest, he really didn't know how many people would come to his concert or how many shows he could hold. But since he was going to do it, he would do his best.
Without further ado, the spring of HX2125 was also a prosperous and fulfilling year, with everyone going further and further down their own path to stardom.
Zheng Ruoqian and his team worked tirelessly to finalize the arrangements, and his concert was held as scheduled in Junzhou.
This news caused a sensation among Junzhou Cultural Tourism. He specifically chose March 15th as the first day, which attracted countless Champion fans.
Even more surprisingly, the leader of Champion actually came to his concert as a guest, singing their debut song and his favorite single at the time, "Nine Stars Moon".
After the concert, Chu Tai had dinner with the young couple, lamenting how things had changed.
Sitting across from them, Hsu Chang-chia recalled that she had also followed the offline fandom and met fellow fans. However, that girl is now married and her WeChat Moments are filled with pictures of her child. She rarely mentions the name Champion anymore.
Back in their group, only he and Zheng Ruoqian practiced until late at night every day. Now everyone has gone their separate ways. After returning to China, Ruan Zhishi, who had ulterior motives, also left the entertainment industry due to various solid evidence of scandals. The other members' achievements were just average.
Only he and Chu Tai, who still persist on stage, are still loved and followed by the public. Today, seeing the vampire support for their Champion at the scene, he almost burst into tears.
It turns out that they have become seniors in this ever-changing entertainment industry, becoming a relic of an era.
That day, Zheng Ruoqian broke his usual rule and drank two extra cups, getting drunk with Chu Tai. Xu Changjia silently poured more wine for him, but did not stop him from getting drunk.
Inviting Chu Tailai to be a guest at his concert, singing the band's songs with him again, and getting drunk together, marks his true reconciliation with Champion, his choice to let go of past grievances, and the beginning of his courageous journey forward in China. Of course, she wouldn't stop him.
After that night, although he would still sing Champion songs at concerts, how could Hsu Chang-Chia, who had listened to his songs for so many years, not know about the changes in his state of mind?
One show after another, Hsu Chang-chia accompanied him all over the world for five years. Although there were a few regrets, it was a kind of fulfillment in another sense.
When they returned to China again, they started a new chapter in their lives on the south bank, the place where they had agreed to live together in the future.
He also secretly gave concert tickets to her relatives and friends, inviting them to come and watch his 520th concert with her, which was also the end of his final tour.
After the glitz and glamour faded, Zheng Ruoqian held a grand and heartfelt marriage proposal ceremony for her backstage. Wen Xuanyi, Zhang Yuning, Ou Liyao, Yunhe, and her godparents, who had been with them for more than ten years, were all present. The final confetti was set off just for her.
The most beautiful words of love only echoed in Hsu Chang-Chia's ears: "Hsu Chang-Chia, this is my 520th concert, and the 504th one you've attended. I will spend the rest of my life singing for you the 16 shows you missed. Would you like to listen?"
She looked around, and everyone's eyes were full of happiness, even her godparents. Their eyes gestured for her to agree quickly, and the sound of their heartbeats drowned out the words coming from her throat, as if the "okay" she had just said wasn't hers.
Ou Liyao secretly pressed the play button backstage, allowing countless fans to go home with his singing, and sending blessings from the sea of green to the newlyweds.
After the initial uproar subsided, the two jointly posted an official announcement on Weibo at midnight:
Zheng Ruoqian, [New Identity: Xu Changjia's Exclusive Fiancé], successfully proposed with a picture.
Hsu Chang-Chia, [Let me introduce myself, my one and only singer-songwriter], accompanied by a picture of ten thousand moments of being loved.
