Chapter 787 - 271: A Classic and Memorable Concert_2

He had essentially become a behind-the-scenes "capitalist," and from that point on, anything he did would be purely based on personal interest. Once he achieved true financial freedom, he could finally stop the grind and live a life of leisure.

He could take Zhong Tingyue and Xia Zhijin with him to enjoy life, have more children, and fulfill his parents’ wish for the family line to continue—such a life would be more than enough...

As for higher ambitions or making a greater contribution, he might make some angel investments in industries like smartphones and new energy vehicles. But to do it all himself? Li Yuan didn’t believe he had the talent or capability. According to the historical development trajectory, these high-tech industries were bound to rise with the great rejuvenation of the Huaxia nation.

There was a high probability that this awards ceremony would be his first concert, and also his last.

Li Yuan looked at the audience below, his gaze flickering to Xia Zhijin for a moment. He smiled faintly and announced, "This next song is a little sweet, so all the couples out there, listen closely. Sing it to the one you love most."

"I’m so lucky to have met you again in this life, and even luckier that I can bring you happiness. This song, ’Little Lucky,’ is for all of you here. I hope you like it."

Down in the audience, the moment Xia Zhijin heard Li Yuan was going to sing "Little Lucky"—the song he had written for her—she immediately tensed up. Her eyes were glued to the stage, listening with rapt attention.

Singing "Little Lucky" had a completely different feeling and atmosphere than "Nanshan South." If "Nanshan South" was a "eulogy for a lost love," then "Little Lucky" was a purely sweet and tender song.

Li Yuan moistened his throat, and as the band began to play a gentle melody, he began to sing softly...

*I hear raindrops falling on the green grass...*

*I hear the distant chime of the school bell...*

*It turns out you are the luck I most want to keep...*

*That decision to defy the world for me...*

*The rain we were drenched in together...*

*Oh, how lucky I am!*

...

In the VIP seats, Gao Xin and Li Lanrong listened with wide eyes as Li Yuan sang "Little Lucky," discussing it in low voices.

"Did you notice?" Gao Xin asked curiously. "When Li Yuan sings this song, he keeps looking at Zhijin. Does that mean he wrote this song specifically for her?"

Li Lanrong nodded. "I think so. The two songs he sang before, ’Natural Beauty’ and ’Love Confession Balloon,’ were obviously written for that girl from Ji University. The last one, ’Nanshan South,’ was written for Zhong Tingyue from the Finance Academy..."

Ge Chenchen teased, "Li Yuan is a really interesting guy. He’s written different songs for several of his girlfriends. Do you think he’s going to sing all of them tonight?"

Gao Xin smirked. "I think that’s highly likely. Let’s just wait and see what the next song is. Although Li Yuan is an undeniable playboy, the songs he writes are truly beautiful."

"Barring any surprises, tonight’s concert will definitely be talked about for a long time. The videos of this performance will be watched over and over by his many fans."

...

After finishing "Little Lucky," the song written for Xia Zhijin, Li Yuan listened to the audience’s excited chatter. He smiled, not immediately starting the next song, instead taking a moment to chat and catch his breath.

"Some songs, like ’Little Lucky,’ are written for a female voice, so they might sound even better when a woman sings them..."

"The next song I’ll be performing was also written for a certain young lady in the audience. It’s called ’White Moonlight and Cinnabar Mole.’ I hope you enjoy it..."

...

Hearing Li Yuan sing the song he had written for her, Bai Weixi’s anxious heart finally relaxed. Li Yuan was still the same Li Yuan, treating them all with perfect fairness, showing no obvious favoritism.

After singing "White Moonlight and Cinnabar Mole," Li Yuan continued with a series of classic songs he had written for his several girlfriends, including "The Rest of My Life," "Once is enough," "Anhe Bridge," and "Just Met You."

Listening to so many new songs for the first time, the fans in the venue and watching online went completely wild. The concert hall was abuzz with discussion, and the livestream chat exploded with comments scrolling by at lightning speed...

"Oh my god, what is happening tonight? Xia Hua just sang so many songs in one go, and every single one is an instant classic! They’re all so popular and in different styles... Ahhh, I’m going to swoon! Xia Hua, I love you to death!"

"How does Xia Hua’s brain even work? It hasn’t been that long, but he’s written so many songs, and he composed all the music himself. Compared to Xia Hua, even Jay Chou pales in comparison. Only Xia Hua is the number one musical genius in the music scene!"

"I have a feeling that after tonight, the legend of Xia Hua will spread throughout the world. His songs are going to blow up online and dominate the top ten on every music chart!"

"I just counted. Xia Hua has already sung ’Natural Beauty,’ ’Love Confession Balloon,’ ’Nanshan South,’ ’Little Lucky,’ ’White Moonlight and Cinnabar Mole,’ ’The Rest of My Life,’ ’Just Met You,’ ’Anhe Bridge,’ and ’Once is enough’—that’s nine songs! Every single one of them feels like a viral hit... Tonight’s concert will absolutely go down in the annals of the music scene!"

"You know what I admire most about Xia Hua? His incredible versatility. He can do sweet love songs like ’Little Lucky,’ ’Love Confession Balloon,’ and ’Natural Beauty’; deeply soulful songs like ’Nanshan South’ and ’Anhe Bridge’; and fresh, light songs like ’White Moonlight and Cinnabar Mole.’ They’re all completely different styles, yet they come so effortlessly from one person. He writes the lyrics, composes the music, and sings it all himself. My god, why does such a supremely talented man exist in this world?"
