Chapter 413 Even the man regrets it!
The blue and yellow lights on the stage gradually dimmed, with only a spotlight shining like holy light upon Jiang Bai.
He lowered his head slightly, his pale yellow skirt billowing in the air, and his long hair tied with a bow swaying gently in the wind.
At that moment, it was as if all the breathing in the entire venue had disappeared.
Only Jiang Bai's plaintive voice, carrying a sense of fatalism, resonated in the air.
Jiang Bai closed his eyes, his mind filled with images of this song playing in the streets and alleys in his past life.
Coupled with his acting, which, through Zhang Yan's portrayal of someone who has seen through the vanity of worldly affairs and lived a life of loneliness, he instantly became emotional, as if reminiscing about his youth:
Gardenias, white petals, fall onto my yellow pleated skirt~
The first line of the lyrics, carrying the coolness of morning dew, instantly pulls everyone back to that summer filled with the chirping of cicadas.
"I love you," you whispered. I lowered my head and smelled a fragrance.
Jiang Bai's voice was very soft, as soft as a wisp of smoke that was afraid to be blown away, yet it accurately depicted the shyness of the young man and woman when they first met, unable to look each other in the eye.
Offstage, Wang Feng's tightly gripped pen tip snapped in two.
He had a premonition that this song was no ordinary song!
The lyrics continue to unfold, each line like turning the pages of a long-forgotten story:
"That eternal night, the midsummer night when I was seventeen, the night you kissed me~"
"May I always remember the starlight of that day, whenever I feel moved or amazed."
Jiang Bai looked up at the spotlight high in the studio.
Those eyes seemed to truly reflect the starry sky of when I was seventeen.
"Why was love so simple back then?"
"And why is it that when people are young, they must hurt the ones they deeply love?"
The lyrics, so realistic they were almost cruel, coupled with Jiang Bai's slightly hoarse vocals, were like a cross-time, cross-dimensional lashing of the dead for the entire audience.
Yes, why is that?
Back then, we would blush even if we just looked at each other for a second.
Back then, I had no house, no car, and no savings. As long as I had two yuan in my pocket, I could be happy all day long just by buying an ice pop.
Why do they say the most hurtful things when they argue?
Why push away someone who only has eyes for you, just for the sake of that pitiful pride, for that "I'm sorry" that neither of you is willing to say first?
Why wait until you're covered in wounds and your temples are gray before you remember the innocence you lost with your own hands?
"On similar nights, do you, like me, quietly feel regret and sorrow?"
As Jiang Bai sang this line, his voice carried a hint of questioning, as if he were asking on behalf of everyone the figure that had disappeared into the crowd.
In the studio, some people already had tears in their eyes.
I remembered that train station ten years ago, and the girl in the floral dress, crying her eyes out, but he never said a word to stop her.
It also reminded me of the intense arguments between the two of them, neither willing to admit defeat.
"If we hadn't been so stubborn back then, we wouldn't have so many regrets now."
Jiang Bai's lyrics directly set the tone for that youthful love and youth.
If I hadn't been so stubborn back then, I wouldn't have any regrets now.
Yes, I admit it. I regret the mistakes I made when I was young.
Inside the hall, many people sighed, their eyes filled with emotion.
"Why does this song...make me want to text my ex?"
"I feel like my dead first love is attacking my brain like crazy because of these lyrics!"
On stage, Jiang Bai continued.
How do you remember me? With a smile or in silence?
"Over the years, has anyone been able to keep you from being lonely?"
"Later, I finally learned how to love."
"It's a pity you've already gone far away, disappeared into the sea of people~"
"Later, I finally understood through my tears."
Some people, once missed, are gone forever.
Jiang Bai murmured almost to himself, but his voice gradually rose, becoming even more suffocating than before.
It seems like they are asking the same question over and over again.
Do you still remember me?
do you remember me?
Do you still love me?
How do you remember me?
"Whether with a smile or in complete silence~"
"Over the years, has anyone been able to keep you from being lonely?!"
It seems that the suppressed emotions, after countless inquiries, finally found an answer.
I got the answer from my youth.
The next second, that cross-gender resonance exploded completely in the chorus!
"Later, I finally learned how to love!"
"It's a pity you've already gone far away—disappeared into the sea of people!"
Later, I finally understood through my tears.
Some people, once missed, are gone forever.
When Jiang Bai sang on stage, she was so moved that a single, glistening tear rolled down her cheek.
At that moment, the light shifted from blue to warm, illuminating his breathtakingly beautiful face.
boom--!!!
The studio exploded.
But it wasn't the kind of loud explosion; it was more like a collective breakdown and sobbing.
If the previous chanting was like slowly boiling a frog, then the current explosive chorus is like throwing a white phosphorus bomb directly into the audience's tear ducts!
"Waaaaah, I miss her so much!!"
"I want to too! No, I have to go find him! I can't live without him!"
"The yellow dress that Goddess Bai Zhi is wearing today isn't a goldfish, it's poison! A deadly poison specifically designed to kill the regrets of first love!"
"This is a song that even a dog would find regrettable!"
"No, no, no, it's practically a regret memoir! Whether you did something wrong or not, you'll regret it!"
Wang Feng's eyes were filled with self-doubt:
"I banned her from her comfort zone, and now she's singing about despair?"
"This isn't a competition, it's like dancing on my grave!"
Sitting in the mentor's seat, Nayoung no longer cared about her image as a leading figure in the music industry.
She clutched the black and gold suit jacket tightly to her chest, her eyes red-rimmed, her mind filled with the same stubborn figure she had lost when she was making her way into the music scene.
"Bai Zhi, that child... she's not singing at all."
Nayoung choked up as she spoke to Lee Yong-ho beside her.
"She's installed a surveillance camera in our hearts, specifically targeting our most vulnerable spots!"
Lee Ronghao pushed up his glasses, and even his usually calm eyes were now misty with tears.
He originally banned Jiang Bai's sweet songs because he wanted to see her get the short end of the stick.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Bai skipped the "sweet" part and fast-forwarded directly to the "boundless sea of bitterness".
He looked at Jiang Baizhi on the stage, dressed in a bright yellow dress. In the melancholy blue light, she was like a wisp of setting sun that could not be grasped. The brighter she was, the more poignant her beauty seemed to be about to be lost.
"Banning sweet songs left me with regret."
"She banned healing, and instead gave me depression."
Li Ronghao sighed deeply, and the pen in his hand drew a long mark on the table.
"Zhang Xingzhe, this question... I can't do it."
Love song prince Zhang Xingzhe was looking up at the ceiling, trying hard not to let his tears fall.
"Don't ask me, I already regret not confessing to my deskmate when I was seventeen."
"The aftereffects of this song are making my teeth ache!"
"Sigh, what a pity..."
Li Ronghao looked sad, then suddenly his expression changed, and he seemed puzzled:
"Wait, Zhang Xingzhe, didn't you remember your high school deskmate was a boy?"
Zhang Xingzhe wiped away his tears and said without turning his head:
"I regret it too!"
The man also regretted it...
Lee Ronghao's eyes widened instantly.
Wait, there's some big news!
At that moment, suppressed sobs could be heard in the studio.
Many young students thought of their recent breakups, while many family members thought of their first loves who had already settled down and started families.
"Waaaaah... I'm not playing anymore! I want to go home and find my first love!"
One contestant, who takes a tough-guy approach, broke down on the spot, squatting at the backstage entrance and sobbing uncontrollably.
In a short time.
The entire studio was plunged into a vast ocean of sorrow and grief as Jiang Bai sang!
