0713: You who shine in the parallel world

With Yu Yu's current popularity on YouTube, if he walks on the streets abroad, people will recognize him and ask for photos over time. If his other aliases are also revealed... then it's ruined. He will never be able to go out as an ordinary person in his life.

But it's different in China. There are not many people on YouTube in China. Even if there is a ladder to climb onto YouTube, not many people watch it for the travel purpose. In addition, his frequency of activity in China was zero in the few years after he was arrested. No matter how popular he was at the beginning, it would disappear with the emergence of new generations of idols.

Walking on the street at this moment, people are rushing to and fro after get off work, students are walking in groups of two or three after school, and there is a constant stream of cars on the road beside him. The silhouettes of life fall into the eyes of this unknown foreign visitor. Yu Yu thinks, this must be freedom.

He was too tired, really. In his previous life, he knew that he didn't have much time left and could only drag his dying body to desperately catch up with time and embrace music. In this life, he hasn't even started to give up yet, but he has tightened the spring as soon as he was born, as if every breath he takes is a huge sin.

But Yu Yu knew in his heart that it was not just that kind of family that was strangling him so tightly that he couldn't breathe, just like the rope that should have been untied was not loosened. He didn't know whether it was because the music that he loved with his life had to be hidden and became something that could not be seen in the light, or because of something else.

Yu Yu lowered her head to look at the gift bag in her hand and smiled again, “Luckily, I have you.”

So he casually took a photo of the beautiful and prosperous capital at sunset and posted it to Instagram. Even the accompanying text was just a dot, and there were a lot of comments that over-interpreted and brainlessly praised it -

“First! God is blessing me, otherwise I wouldn’t have seen the miracle the moment I refreshed the homepage.”

"Hurry up for more updates! Whose good man has been collecting style for half a year!"

"The location is the capital of China? So the next stop of Blue Star Catcher is to take us to China to see the world? China has had many episodes before and I like them all. Do you have other unknown places hidden for us to see now?! Hurry up! Hurry up the next episode!"

"I was wondering why there is no soundtrack from Indie Studio, but sometimes life is like this, people are busy and hurried from day to day, looking forward to a better life... forgetting in the middle... finally looking back, looking at the past self, I found that regret is the imperfect perfection in life. Life is a wilderness, and the downpour with thunder and lightning may be another kind of bloom. Life has made us, and we have become life. There is no soundtrack, perhaps for the next time, to say goodbye better."

"The above, you can't even recite Cyrus's classic narration, so I punish you to watch the Dolomites episode again. Also, my life is incomplete without the IS soundtrack. I can only give this photo 98 points. The remaining 2 points are not because there is no soundtrack but because I love you too (two)."

"Your eyes and my eyes seem to be different. Why do you always find the most beautiful corners of the world?"

"Cyrus, marry me!!! It doesn't matter if you can't marry me, I just want to enjoy the process of creating a baby with you!!!"

…? Yu Yu thought that he just took a picture with his mobile phone and uploaded it without any editing or filter to show that he was still alive and not missing or not updating. It would be fine if he just blindly praised him, but why did the tiger and wolf words not even let this one go? ?

However, Yu Yu finally saw a Chinese comment that was relatively normal compared to the others: "According to the location of your photo and the distance to your destination, you will arrive in about 2 hours and 47 minutes. If your shoes are worn out, turn right after 1 hour and 23 minutes and go to the mall to buy a pair of shoes. Take some tea with you. There is a craft beer shop in the alley behind the mall that tastes good. Take your time. I'm not in a hurry."

Yu Yu immediately responded: "Your crappy navigation only has walking routes?"

"There are driving routes, but in order not to disturb Mr. Cyrus's creation, I decided to help you search for attractions near the route."

At this time, fans have already understood that Yu Yu, the old thief who updates the post randomly, is not checking out the new episode, but is meeting friends for a private event.

Fans who have followed Yu Yu for many years or new fans who have already done the archaeological research know who this person with the ID allensu0305 is. From the details of the archaeological research, we can roughly infer that the two of them met on a music talent show in China in 07.

The discovery that Cyrus can sing and has participated in a talent show in China made many fans extremely excited. However, who would have thought that Cyrus didn't sing at all in the video, and they couldn't find a way to watch the talent show that year, so they could only give up with regret.

However, as one of the few people Cyrus follows, Allen Su is more active on Instagram than others. He has been interacting with Cyrus for many years, and they even have nicknames specifically for the two of them (actually thirteen people). I don't know what touched him, but many foreign girls who are not aware of the situation started to ship him as a couple.

So when Su Xing's comment appeared and he searched it with the translation software, the style of his reply changed again -

"Okay, okay, I thought it was a preview of a new work, but it turned out to be just a private date. You two should just live your life well, and don't worry about the lives of us who are at the bottom of the pit."

"I dreamed that Mr. Su's Panamera suddenly appeared in front of Cyrus, who was at the end of his rope."

"Please add another episode of Mr. Su and Cyrus's trip together. The child is starving to death."

"I think the one with Mr. Wang is better. After all, Cyrus said that his porcelain country's name is jade. Wang has a little jade in his heart. Look at the copy of this photo, there is only one dot. What does it mean? You can think carefully."

"? Does someone from such and such a family not wear glasses when they go out? Why did you start shouting without even noticing where this is? And the original words of that sentence were "Jade, a little more jade than the king", please don't over-interpret it, thank you."

I don't understand, but I respect it. Kids are in a good mental state nowadays. They can even eat and fight with each other.

Yu Yu closed Instagram, opened the map, found the craft beer shop accurately, asked a runner to run errands, turned a corner and walked to the subway entrance.

After getting out of the subway, it was already dark. After waiting for less than ten minutes, the runner brought a pot of craft beer. Yu Yu thanked him, added a tip, and walked towards the barbecue stall with a pot of tea.

From a distance, he saw a man wearing a baseball cap sitting at a low table at the entrance of the alley. Apart from having a much fatter face than Yu Yu remembered, he was still the same person, just a lot more mature.

Su Xing, who was playing with his phone with his head down, didn't notice Yu Yu approaching quietly. Seeing this, Yu Yu lowered his voice and said in a middle-aged man's voice that was much lower than his original voice: "Excuse me...are you Su Xing? I grew up listening to your songs and I like you very much. Can you take a photo with me?"

Su Xing thought he was being criticized by a fan older than himself and was so stunned that he doubted his life. He looked up and saw Yu Yu standing beside him with an innocent smile. Su Xing immediately stood up and gave him a warm hug.

"Dude, you almost scared me to death just now, you know? I thought I had become a square dance idol for middle-aged and elderly people."

"That's a beautiful thought. No one can shake the status of Phoenix Legend in the dance world." Yu Yu teased him and put the tea and gift on the table. "Look, your fish will answer any request. This is the tea you've been dreaming about, and this is a gift for you."

"Oh, how can this be so embarrassing? We've been friends for so many years and you're still giving me gifts when we meet." Su Xing said as he quickly took the gift, as if he was afraid that if he was a step slower, Yu Yu would take the gift away just out of courtesy.

The outer packaging of the gift bag was very ordinary and it was impossible to tell what was inside, but when he took out the contents, he was stunned.

It was a vinyl record with a black cover and a gold-embossed background, with the words ONE DECADE, Allen Su written on it in very beautiful cursive script.

"The tenth anniversary, have you forgotten?" Yu Yu smiled as she sat on a plastic stool, looking at the barbecue menu while writing the order herself with a pencil. "Although your focus is always in China, your previous works published abroad are still loved by some people. On this memorable day, the production company there released a vinyl record that includes all your works published abroad, and it sold quite well."

"Would you like some chicken feet? I'd like to have a couple of skewers. I don't care. I'll just order first."

"Don't blame me for not telling you. I wanted to give you a surprise. Tomorrow you will have a deposit into your card. It's the dividend from ten years of vinyl records. Don't think it's too little. I'll also have a portion of stinky tofu and garlic eggplant, and see what else... Oh, and there's a booklet in there, specially made for you. It's full of reactions to your vinyl records, both good and bad. Take your pick. We have to be able to withstand praise, but also criticism in order to make progress, right?"

"I've finished writing. Do you want to add anything else?" Yu Yu said as he handed the paper and pen to Su Xing, only to find that the other party was looking up.

"You are really... what are you doing, doing this? I, Allen Su, am not good at sentimental things, you are..." Su Xing's eyes were red, not sure if it was because of anger or some other reason, "But, Yu Yu, thank you, really, apart from anything else, you really did so much for your brothers without saying a word, whether it's me or others... a lifelong brother, thank you."

For the past fifteen years, Yu Yu has always been like this, even if he has to stand in the rain, he will still hold an umbrella for his brothers.

Su Xing only had a vague understanding of his family situation because he rarely talked about his family.

He only knew that he was born in a single-parent family. His family was rich but he was an illegitimate child. His elders didn't like him and didn't want him to become a musician. He came to China to participate in a music competition thinking that they wouldn't notice him because he was far away from home. Who would have thought that he would make it to the top five. After he became influential in China, his family accidentally found out and used their connections to make his visa problematic. He was forcibly taken back to China, away from the music he loved.

Even so, he never gave up his passion and always tried his best to do something as close to it as possible.

When he was at his lowest point, it was Yu Yu who said that his style was very suitable for European and American music, and helped him to release albums abroad. He even said that if he wanted to develop directly abroad, he could help arrange it. But on the one hand, thinking that it was not easy for Yu Yu to be abroad, and on the other hand, his heart was always in China and he only wanted to develop in China, he finally refused. Although the overseas albums were selling well, he had to reluctantly stop releasing them temporarily.

In fact, the first time Su Xing met Yu Yu was not at a competition in China, but in Australia.

"We are all brothers and family, so just be polite. Check and see if you want anything else. Hurry up, I'm starving. I haven't eaten anything all day."

"No way, why don't you order grilled gluten for the barbecue? You have to order two skewers."

"Okay, you do it. Boss, I've written the order, please help us grill it quickly, medium spicy, no onions!"
