Chapter 254 – She’s Back

Chapter 254 – She’s Back


Unknowingly, it has entered the Single’s Month, and Jiangcheng, which has entered late autumn, has already touched the traces of winter. Especially after the sunset disappeared at the edge of the horizon, the bleak cold wind began to howl between the buildings, ravaging the already bare branches. Pedestrians on the road couldn’t help but shudder at the sound, wrapping themselves tightly in their windbreakers, hurrying their steps.


Fortunately, it was relatively warm inside. Yang Yi had already installed a household heating device for Xixi early on.


“Papa, hurry up, hurry up! Mama is going to be on TV!”


That night, Yang Yi, who hadn’t finished his dinner yet, was urged by the little girl and had to put down his chopsticks. He was dragged by Xixi’s little hand to the living room, where they sat on the sofa and watched the live broadcast on TV.


The program that was currently being broadcast on the TV was “Music Power Chart” by Shanghai City Television Station, which was currently one of the three most authoritative music chart shows in the Chinese music industry. When singers release new songs, they need to appear on these three music chart shows one after another to strive for a higher ranking for their songs and gain greater exposure!


The live venue of “Music Power Chart” was a small music hall, with fans cheering like they were at a concert, and the whole process was broadcasted live, which particularly tested the singers’ live abilities! It could also be said that even the so-called studio singers couldn’t hide themselves from such shows.


Of course, this also particularly test the singers’ ability to bear pressure. Some singers who were too nervous would also make a fool of themselves in the show, which was inevitable!


Although Mo Fei hasn’t released a new alb.u.m yet, she has released a single, so she naturally had to make an appearance for “Across the Ocean to See You”!


On the TV, the host was interviewing Mo Fei. Xixi was sitting next to her father, holding his finger tightly with her little hand. She was more nervous than anyone else.


“Papa, is Mama going to sing?” the little girl asked.


“Yes,” Yang Yi patted Xixi’s small head and smiled gently.


“When is she going to sing?” the little girl couldn’t wait.


“Shh, she’s going to sing now!” Yang Yi comforted his daughter and focused his attention on the TV. He was actually looking forward to Mo Fei’s live performance and enjoyed watching her sing his own songs.


“…So, let’s welcome Mo Fei to bring us the long-awaited ‘Across the Ocean to See You’ live on stage!” The host finally gave up the stage, and the scene erupted in cheers.


Some Mo Fei fans were also present in the audience. Although their numbers couldn’t compare to the popular stars, they still held up their support signs high for Mo Fei. When the camera panned to the audience, the flickering words “Mo Fei” in lights made at least one feel that Mo Fei wasn’t alone.


But Mo Fei on the stage was alone. This song didn’t have any elaborate stage design. The stage was big and the lights were bright, but she was alone, standing there alone.


However, Mo Fei’s expression was very calm, just like her usual appearances on shows, faint and cold, with a low presence. If it weren’t for her outstanding appearance and ethereal temperament, she might have been overlooked.


“For you, I spent my half a year’s savings, across the ocean to see you…” Finally, after the prelude, Mo Fei raised the microphone and, with the white mist rising on both sides, sang with a hint of sadness. 1


Her ethereal and melancholic singing voice, like an electric shock, penetrated the hearts of the fans in the audience and the viewers in front of the television.


“So this is the song!” Perhaps some of the young people among the fans of other star present at the scene might not be very familiar with Mo Fei, but these days they had heard people around them humming Mo Fei’s popular song. When they heard the first line being sung, their eyes suddenly lit up.


“For this reunion, I even practiced repeatedly every breath of seeing you…” Mo Fei sang pa.s.sionately, making these people listened. Their body couldn’t help but sway. The glow sticks they held in their hands, meant for their beloved idol, couldn’t resist being raised because of the love in their hearts.


As if there were more and more support, the dimly lit stage, dotted with stars below, looked like an ocean of stars.


The climax of this song was not “Across the Ocean to See You,” nor was it the sudden raising of the voice in “Memories always acc.u.mulate slowly…,” but rather after the high note of “I held back my tears even in the most desperate times.”


Mo Fei paused, and in the accompaniment of the newly added violin, she sang with a sigh-like tone, “In this unfamiliar city, in the familiar corners…”


The mournful2singing immediately gave the audience gooseb.u.mps.


It was really nice to listen to!


Such a melancholic song, such a beautiful voice, wasn’t it worth everyone turning around for her?


Vote? Vote, vote, vote!


Buy the song? Buy, buy, buy!


“Watching you go away in the sandstorm, I was so sad that I couldn’t help myself…” The song was already swaying with the sandstorm.


Some emotionally sensitive girls, watching Mo Fei standing alone on the stage, listening to her singing with a sense of “forcefully holding onto strength,” were instantly moved to tears.


This was probably the moment when pa.s.sersby became fans…


The first time people listened to Mo Fei’s song, what they heard was sadness. But Yang Yi, sitting in front of the television, had listened to it many times. This time, he heard Mo Fei’s second layer of emotions, sweetness, overlapping beneath the initial emotion.


“To accompany you for thousands of miles until the end of the world, to be with you for a lifetime…”, This silly woman, with the corners of her mouth outlined, wasn’t that the sweet smile that she rarely showed in public?


Mo Fei was singing on the stage with unrestrained pa.s.sion, perhaps unaware that there was a little person watching her with admiration in front of the television.


After her mother started singing, Xixi tightly held her father’s finger and was actually a bit worry for her mother.


But as Mo Fei sang freely, Xixi’s nervousness gradually subsided. The little girl watched her mother singing pa.s.sionately on the stage with fascination, and her small body couldn’t help but sway from side to side.


Mama is so amazing!


The emotion of admiration almost filled the little girl’s small heart, but she was still focused on watching her mother’s performance without shouting out, as if afraid that it might affect her mother.


“To be with you for a lifetime…” In the end, Mo Fei used her excellent breath control to draw out the final note, making it long and faint until it was barely audible. It wasn’t to show off her skills but to depict the lingering reluctance at the end to the fullest.


The accompaniment played a lonely segment before slowly coming to an end. It wasn’t until the accompaniment ended that Mo Fei, holding the microphone, bowed deeply to her long-missed fans.


“Clap, clap!” Almost all the audience, no matter whose fan they were, stood up at this moment, excitedly applauding Mo Fei, applauding for her song that moved them!


The applause lasted for a long time…


Mo Fei had to bow again. When she raised her head, her emotions couldn’t help but fluctuate heavily.


The several senior music hosts from the Shanghai TV station, who were waiting to go up on stage, halted their steps when they saw this scene and waited for the applause to stop.


They gazed at Mo Fei on the stage, tears glistening in her eyes, and one of the hosts couldn’t help but sigh, “She’s back!”


Yes, how long has it been since Mo Fei’s live performance had so many audiences cheering for her with endless applause? Perhaps it was when “Feel Like Strangers” was released?


Yes, Chinese music world, she’s back!
