I just want to sell products, but you're forcing me to perform talents.

Chapter 142 Men, it's not a sin to cry!

June 8, 17:00.

Many fans opened their phones early and kept refreshing Ye Xian's page, just to wait for his new song.

The Han family army was also on high alert. Although they kept mocking and attacking him, Ye Xian's achievements over the past month and a half forced them to take him seriously.

Nobody knows what kind of song Ye Xian will release, but be prepared for it to dominate the internet.

Anything not sung by my brother Han is garbage.

Haven't you seen that my Han Ge's new song "Farewell" has already topped the Kuaishou hot song chart?

At this moment, Cat Brother was also sitting in the fireside chat room he had been dreaming of, watching Brother Xian light the charcoal stove while waiting to hear the new song.

Although I will be able to hear it live in the live stream later and enjoy super VIP treatment, I would like to hear it earlier so that I won't be caught off guard tonight.

To be honest, coming to Xian Ge's live stream this time made him a little nervous.

Ding Zhan had already talked to him last night. He invited him here because he had always supported Ye Xian. If he didn't want to come, he didn't have to, but he still came, even knowing that he would have to face the online attacks and suppression from Liu Bohan's tens of millions of fans.

Not for any other reason than Ye Xian's song, which truly captivated him.

He was actually using jokes to relieve his tension during the afternoon's live stream. However, when he saw his number of fans skyrocket from 130 million to 180 million, he finally understood.

These thighs are so tempting!

"Hello everyone, I'm Ye Xian. I'm a full-time seller, a part-time cook, an occasional singer, and a storyteller in between."

"My college life was incomplete, so I can't understand the complex feelings of graduating from college. However, I have also experienced many partings, in different forms."

In the horizontal shot, Ye Xian, dressed in a blue school uniform, stands on the platform. A tall and beautiful figure is stepping into the green train. Her face is not visible, but she is waving goodbye to Ye Xian with her hand out of the train window.

The camera zooms out to reveal a hazy sky under the setting sun, and two large handwritten characters.

"goodbye"

Small print below: Lyrics/Music/Singing by Ye Xian

The camera pans down, the green train slowly starts moving, Ye Xian stands on the platform in the setting sun, his shadow getting longer and longer as the train gradually accelerates until it disappears into the distance.

I'm afraid I won't have a chance.

Say goodbye to you

Because maybe I'll never see you again

... "

[Could this be the scene of Xian-ge saying goodbye to Qiu-qing back in high school?]

[You know what, it's actually quite possible. Xian Ge's past has been pretty much dug up. His first separation was probably from his childhood sweetheart—Qiu Qing!]

[I feel like crying. My childhood sweetheart, who was with me from childhood to adolescence and then to high school, has gone to the other side of the ocean. You can only imagine how I felt at that time.]

Fortunately, Qiu Qing came back recently, otherwise...

……

Longtime fans immediately guessed what Ye Xian meant, but a large number of Han family soldiers quickly began to flood the forum with criticism.

[What a terrible song! How can this be compared to Brother Han's?]

[Playing the victim to gain sympathy? Can't you just focus on singing properly and stop using these underhanded tactics?]

[This isn't the first time Ye Xian has used this kind of tear-jerking scene; he's an old hand at it.]

[This song is so slow, and the singing is so weak, I almost fell asleep!]

……

Cat Brother looked at the comments from Han Family Army and couldn't help but want to go up and curse, but he held back again and again, remembering Xian Brother's advice not to argue with the other party, and finally refrained from doing so.

Not only Cat Brother, but also Qiu Mama, Sun Li, Qian Duoduo, Zhao Fen and others next to him couldn't help but clench their veins, but they all held back.

This time, Ye Xian strongly demanded that everyone hold back and not engage in direct confrontation.

……

The scene shifts, and a high school gate appears—it's Ye Xian's alma mater, Haizhou No. 1 High School.

Cat Brother clearly remembers that this school once appeared in Ye Xian's short video of the song "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky".

This time, Ye Xian stood in the crowd again, still like a stubborn white rock.

This time, instead of greeting the group of high school students who had just finished school, he stood there and watched them walk into the distance shrouded in the setting sun.

People walked together, rode bicycles, rode electric bikes, or walked alone along the roadside, and everyone gradually moved away.

I'm leaving tomorrow.

Familiar place and you

To separate

My tears started falling.

... "

Even though many Han family fans are currently flooding the forum with comments, many people are still moved by the scene before them.

[Brother Xian is really good at this. The same scene, one is about approaching head-on, the other is about seeing someone off and leaving. No wonder the song is called "Goodbye".]

[It reminds me of Liancheng No.1 Middle School. Teacher Wang, how are you?]

I remember when military training ended, we surrounded the instructor, not wanting him to leave. He said, "This is your last order: Dismissed." Then he started crying.

I'm about to start my internship, and I'm really going to miss my roommates in room 222! I can't bear to see them there!

……

At this moment, the news of the massacre on the forum decreased slightly, as if the Han family army had also calmed down.

I will remember your face forever.

I will cherish the longing you gave me.

These days will never be forgotten in my heart.

……

I can't agree to that.

Will I come back?

No turning back

Keep walking without looking back

... "

As the chorus begins, Ye Xian's figure switches back and forth between the platform and the school gate. The lyrics sing about your face, but only Ye Xian's figure appears.

Cat Brother suddenly felt his eyes stinging, and quickly raised his head, trying hard not to shed tears. Sun Li and Qian Duoduo next to him also had their heads down, their eyes red.

On graduation day, I thought I was leaving hell, but actually I was leaving heaven!

Taking a graduation photo takes only three seconds, but it freezes three years in time.

Your alma mater is the place you can criticize eight times a day, but you won't allow anyone else to criticize it.

The following summer, the classroom was filled with people again, but it wouldn't be us anymore.

……

Ahhh, I actually cried while watching a short video! I miss my college dorm sisters! How are you all?

Our journey began in early autumn three years ago and ended in the height of summer this year. Empty seats will always be filled, and the road of parting will always be traversed by those who pass through it.

We promised each other we wouldn't separate after graduation, but now we're all going our separate ways!

[Brother Xian, the Central South Conservatory of Music owes you a graduation ceremony!]

……

The barrage was filled with wails of grief, and the Han family army quieted down at this point, because if they continued to flood the barrage with countless sentimental comments, it would probably cause public outrage.

The scene changes, and Ye Xian is sitting at his dining table. This time, without Qiu's mother helping him cook, he sits quietly at the table by himself.

He was all alone under a dim light.

"Graduation doesn't mean the end; our youth will never be forgotten!"

Goodnight, everyone!

……

Previously, Ye Xian's fans didn't feel much when they saw him eating alone, because they assumed that Ye Xian was a gourmet who made the most exquisite food.

Now, considering this song, the preceding scenes, and the current situation, many people suddenly understand Ye Xian's opening line: "I have also experienced many partings, different forms of partings."

[Brother Xian, give me a hug! You're the only one left on your household registration, but you still have millions of fans supporting you!]

[Brother Xian, don't cry, you're a real man!]

[Brother Xian, parting is for a better reunion. Qiu Qing has already come back to see you, hasn't her mother come to keep you company? We're all here with you in the live stream! You won't be alone anymore!]

I finally understand how painful it is to live alone in your own world! These songs by Xian Ge aren't just giving us strength; they're giving him strength!

……

Although Cat Bro tried his best to suppress it, his eyes still involuntarily moistened. Ye Xian, who was next to him, pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to him. Cat Bro was quite embarrassed.

Turning around, I saw that everyone's eyes were red.

"It's okay, cry if you want to! It's not a sin for a man to cry!"

PS2:

Goodbye, by Chang Chen-yue.

I recommend checking out these three short videos on Bilibili: "Students sing 'Goodbye, Graduation Never Ends, Youth Never Forgets'," "Super-Energetic 'Shouting' for College Entrance Exam Countdown, Singing 'Goodbye' Together," "Choir Secretly Changes Song to Sing 'Goodbye' to Say Goodbye to Graduating Seniors," and "On the Last Evening Class at School, Senior High Students Sing 'Goodbye' in Classroom, Making Their Class Teacher Cry." These are the live performances I found to be the best.
