You're about to retire from the entertainment industry, yet your concerts are still so popular?

Ye Chen was amused by her words and laughed and cried at the same time, his voice hoarse: "Okay, Uncle, don't cry."

He calmed his breathing.

Holding Duoduo's hand, looking into her bright eyes, I made a promise that only Duoduo and her mother could understand:

"Duoduo, you must come and listen to Uncle's new song."

"That song is called 'Big Fish'."

Ye Chen leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Because when Uncle sings that song, Dad asked me to tell you that he caught a big fish."

Duo Duo's eyes instantly curved into crescent moons: "Really?!"

"Really." Ye Chen held up his little finger. "Let's pinky swear."

Two hands, one large and one small, joined together in front of thousands of people and countless stars.

"When will we be able to hear that song?" Duoduo asked eagerly.

Ye Chen smiled and ruffled her hair: "Soon. Until the big fish swims back."

The day "Big Fish" is released will be the day your father and his comrades can finally surface.

It is the day when those names hidden deep in the mud can finally be seen by the sun.

But will that day really come? Ye Chen doesn't know.

"Then Duoduo will wait patiently! Wait for Daddy to catch the big fish and bring it home!" Duoduo hugged the policeman bear, her heart filled with joy.

The entire venue immediately erupted in a thunderous roar of applause and sobs.

No one knows the specific meaning of this agreement.

But as you all know:

Some fish are worth risking your life to catch.

Some people leave their names in the deep sea, just to illuminate the shores of humanity.

The stage lights came on.

Xu Hao brought over a USB flash drive that was still warm.

Ye Chen and the staff helped Duoduo back to her seat.

After putting Duoduo down, Ye Chen whispered to her, "Duoduo, don't be afraid, and don't be sad, okay? Daddy hasn't gone far. He's become a star in the sky, always watching over you and protecting you."

As he spoke, he placed the USB drive in Duoduo's hand: "When you miss your dad, have your mom sing this song, 'The Little Insects Fly,' for you."

"Thank you, Uncle Ye Chen," Duoduo said gratefully.

Finally, Ye Chen looked at the mother who was trying to hold back her grief: "I know you've been holding on for a long time, having to live a strong life while also grieving alone. You've suffered so much."

The mother paused for a moment.

She never expected that this person standing in the center of the dazzling stage would say such things to someone as unknown as her.

Indeed, the identities of the family members of narcotics police officers have always been strictly confidential.

After her husband's sacrifice, she had to bear the unspeakable, unspoken, and unspeakable grief alone.

But at that moment, the young woman didn't ask where her husband had gone; she simply said, "You've had a hard time."

She gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and comforted them, saying, "It's not hard."

"We are content that you can sing these songs for us."

"It's enough for him to know that someone remembers him."

Ye Chen nodded and turned back to the stage.

Duoduo nestled in her mother's arms and whispered:

"Mom, can Dad hear the song Uncle is singing?"

The mother hugged her tightly, resting her chin on the top of her daughter's head, and couldn't help but shed a tear.

"Yes, baby."

"Every star in the sky heard it."

……

Looking at the more than ten thousand audience members below the stage, Ye Chen smiled and said, "Next up is the last song of this concert!"

Until this point, inside the stadium.

Only then did the audience fully accept Ye Chen's opening statement—"I'll let you listen to my heart's content!"

Ye Chen seems to have really done it!

"To prevent us from fighting over the microphone, you, Ye Chen, actually sang all your new songs throughout the entire concert?!"

"At the beginning, we thought, surely the next song won't be a new one?! Now that it's almost over, you, Ye Chen, would rather write a song on the spot than play an old song for me during the Q&A session!"

"Ye Chen! We bought tickets to sing for you! How come you were singing your heart out and having a blast?!"

"The whole concert! You only let us sing two songs, don't you have any conscience?!"

"We don't expect the kind of massive sing-alongs we used to see at concerts! But please, let us sing the last song! Please, Ye Chen!!!"

However, Ye Chen's lips twitched slightly, ruthlessly shattering their illusions!

Seeing the anxious looks on the audience's faces, he slowly said, "Alright, there's only one last song left to headline the show."

"The next song, 'China in the Lights,' will take us back to the warmth of the present and let us listen to the nights of our people."

After speaking, Ye Chen raised his arms high, his tone sincere.

"Wow!!!"

The audience immediately erupted in cheers!

Upon hearing that it was a night in China, their eyes lit up!

Before they could even listen to their own heartbreak, they seemed to have forgotten their desperate pleas from the previous second and immediately joined the frenzied crowd.

"If they don't let us sing, then they don't have to. Anyway, none of Ye Chen's new songs are bad. Listening to these ethereal tunes is a kind of enjoyment."

"China in the Lights? This new song title sounds like it's going to be another patriotic song! I love it!"

"Singing songs about one's own country's nights, doesn't that sound romantic!"

"It's okay, everyone. We're not performing at this concert, but I don't believe Ye Chen can come up with more than a dozen new songs for the next one!"

"Yes, yes, yes, let's practice these new songs hard from now on. We absolutely have to win back the audience at the next concert! Otherwise, other fans will think our Chenmi (fans of Chenmi) has collapsed!"

that's it.

On stage, Ye Chen was full of fighting spirit because he had won the concert;

Offstage, these fans were equally spirited!

This time, the stage screen displayed the bustling night scenes of various cities.

The ethereal accompaniment slowly began to play.

The crisp sound of wind chimes is like a gentle breeze, light and lively.

Accompanied by the deep, resonant orchestral accompaniment, it's as if a long-standing story is being told in a gentle, intimate way.

With such a simple accompaniment, several people in the special guest area stared wide-eyed!

Such a catchy prelude seemed effortless to Ye Chen.

Their amazing arrangement skills made them look like diligent students, not daring to overlook any detail!

At this moment, Ye Chen's clear and melodious voice followed closely behind:

"The city streets are now bathed in the soft glow of lights, and the community is filled with a warm and joyful atmosphere."

"In the distant mountain villages, flames flicker, gradually illuminating the reflections on a moderately prosperous life."

"..."

This gentle and sincere singing voice is like bringing the scenes of shimmering lights in the lyrics to life before the audience's eyes.

It stirred a warm feeling in them.

"Listening to Ye Chen sing is such a treat! I almost don't want to grab the microphone anymore!"

"You sang so well, why is this the last song? Waaaaah..."

"Want to hear more? Hey? I have an idea! Come whisper it in the group chat!"
