"From the start, I explored this world,
Lingering over everything.
The horizon seemed within reach,
And I was willing to go through fire and water.
Now, I've journeyed through this world,
Lingering over everything.
Through the changing faces of the years,
I stumbled into your smiling face.
Ignoring my doubts about Dark Night Rabbit.
Accompanied by the youthful melody and lyrics, everyone was gradually moved by this song.
The imagery in this song's lyrics is so vivid!
A yearning for the world in one's youth.
The courage to cast everything aside and venture out.
After experiencing life, one realizes their own solitude.
Finally gathering the courage to return to that familiar place, only to see the one in their heart smiling like a flower.
"This is definitely a song Listening Rain wrote for his fans!"
"Is there any need to ask? This warm style is exactly what our ACG circle loves!"
"That fan said they wanted to go back and see; Listening Rain's song directly depicts the journey back. Listening Rain is just too devoted to his fans!"
"If I were that fan, I'd be crying my eyes out!"
The event, "Tell us your story with Listening Rain, and Listening Rain will write a song for you," had been seen by many online.
It also served as an interactive bridge established by Xinghui for Listening Rain and his fans.
Listening Rain's comment on that Weibo post, "See you next episode of 'Masked Singer'," also became a trending topic.
People online all said Listening Rain was devoted to his fans.
And after this song was released, the audience's feeling grew even stronger.
Because this song is truly exceptionally beautiful.
"I was once overwhelmed by the vastness of the world,
And lost in its dreaming words.
Unsure of truth, not struggling, not fearing ridicule.
When the chorus began,
Su Yu's singing was filled with youthful ambition.
Fearless, dauntless.
Unwaveringly firm.
Like a warm breeze brushing past the cheek, or a warm sun shining into the heart.
That emotion was incredibly moving.
Youthful and reckless, yearning for the boundless sky.
"I once turned my surging youth into her,
And played through summers with my fingertips.
My heart moves, so let fate decide.
Walking against the light, enduring wind and rain.
Su Yu sat at the piano.
The stage lights shone down like a warm sun.
Under the camera, he was backlit. Although he wore a rabbit mask, which felt somewhat incongruous on stage,
As the song described, he was like a solitary musician, telling a story to the audience with his fingertips.
This story was long, spanning nearly half a lifetime.
But the emotion was brief, centered on the girl buried deep in his heart.
The wind began to blow.
The wind swept through the heart.
Stirring a ripple.
On the ripple, her face appeared and disappeared.
Is it her?
It is her!
"The short road, walked stop-and-go,
Has gained some distance.
Unsure if stroking a story or a mood.
Perhaps what's yearned for is simply to defy time.
Seeing you again,
In the faint morning light,
Smiling so sweetly.
As memories flooded into reality,
Her face appeared clearly before his eyes.
No extra words.
Just a smile like a flower.
How many people's dreams were painted in the second chorus?
Life's greatest regret is missing the right person.
Either due to cowardice or lack of cherishing.
The greatest fortune is:
I've awakened, and you are still here.
On the Singer stage,
Faint sobs could already be heard.
"Wuwuwu... Listening Rain, the old thief, made me cry again!"
"I get it now; this song isn't about reunion, but about cherishing the person in front of you!"
"I was too cowardly to confess in the past and missed a good girl. If only I had heard this song sooner, perhaps I would have mustered the courage to confess. Even if I didn't know if I'd succeed, I wouldn't have regrets!"
"I can't help it. Despite the warm singing, I feel like crying. Dark Night Rabbit sings so well!"
Missed chances.
Many people encounter them.
But who is lucky enough to miss at a crossroads and finally meet again?
Some wait in their original spots, while others drift further apart.
It's rare for both to be moving in the same direction and finally intersect.
"From the start, I explored this world,
Lingering over everything.
On the judges' panel,
Mo Yan still listened with his eyes closed, as usual.
Han Qi leaned back in his chair, full of memories.
Liu Huan took out his phone and looked at the Weibo post of the fan whose story Listening Rain had adopted, his eyes filled with amazement.
As for Yin Na, she yawned.
Indeed, although the pitch of this song wasn't low, it didn't move her.
"The evening breeze blows white hairs from your temples,
Smoothing the scars left by memories.
In your eyes, light and shadow mingle, and a smile blossoms.
Twilight obscures your faltering steps,
As you enter the painting hidden by the bedside.
The you in the painting, head bowed, speaks.
The more beautiful something is, the more it can bring tears.
Because it's too beautiful, it makes one realize it's just a dream.
In the dream,
The girl holds that painting,
Head bowed, speaking with a smile like a flower.
Do you want to know what I wanted to tell you back then?
That sentence was "I'll wait for you."
I know you long to see the world, but I believe no matter how far you go, you will come back to me.
What a beautiful ending.
So beautiful, it's like a meticulously crafted plot.
"I still marvel at the vastness of the world,
And am still enchanted by childhood sweet talk.
No truth or falsehood left, no struggle, no foolish jokes.
I have ultimately returned my youth to her,
Along with the summers played by my fingertips.
My heart moves, and it goes with the wind.
In the name of love, will you still have me?
The piano music gradually softened.
When the last note was struck,
That beautiful scene abruptly ended.
Su Yu sat at the piano, slowly lowering his hands.
His heart was filled with the image of Lin Yanyu.
Beneath the mask, a tear traced a path down his cheek.
This song also told him, in a way, to cherish the person before him.
There aren't that many beautiful waits; sometimes, missing a chance means it's lost forever.
What remains are regret and lamentation.
Boom!
On the main stage screen,
A line of text appeared:
"May you leave for half a lifetime, and return as a youth."
This song is sung for the wanderer, and also for youth.
To live up to youth, without regret.
The lyrics are beautiful, the melody warm,
Yet it made countless viewers' noses sting.
That summer.
That person.
Was green, was happy.
Now.
Are you still happy?
Can you find that person again?
Although many felt the ending was laughable,
There was a strong belief in their hearts.
This was the ending they truly desired.
"Damn it, after being stabbed by Jiangnan the old thief, Listening Rain has pierced my heart again!"
"There's no girl waiting; it's just the last dream of a loser..."
"Ahhh! Hearing this song, my mind is filled with anime plots; this song is tailor-made for chuunibyou!"
"Exactly, this song fits so well with ACG!"
"A thousand people, a thousand faces. After listening to this song, I just want to go back and see. Although that person isn't there, my home is."
"Leaving for half a lifetime, returning as a youth, it's so difficult..."
"Haha... a bald youth is also a youth."
"A sudden gust of wind, a dream-like illusion, where are you?"
"Cherish the person in front of you!!"
"Damn!"
At this moment,
Many viewers wiped away their tears.
They say youth is without regret.
But after lingering for half a lifetime, youth holds too many regrets.
Unfortunately,
It's impossible to go back.
