0713: You who shine in the parallel world

Chapter 68 A Heartfelt Night on the Beach

When the seven of them started barbecuing, it was already dark. Wang Zhengliang volunteered to sit next to the small barbecue grill and help the other brothers grill the meat.

You wouldn't have guessed that Brother Xiao Liang is not only a master at playing the electronic piano, but he's also such an amazing barbecue savvy. The grilled lamb chops were crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and just the right amount of saltiness. Yu Yu was so engrossed in eating that she had no time to talk and could only raise her hand to give him a thumbs up.

Seeing that he liked it so much, Wang Zhengliang put the last piece of lamb chop into his bowl: "Come on, Yuyu, take it."

"Wow, thank you Brother Liang for the reward!" Yu Yu took the bowl with both hands.

Lu Hu watched the last piece of lamb chop fall into Yu Yu's bowl, and immediately looked at Wang Zhengliang eagerly: "Brother Liang, I want it too."

Land Rover's bowl was now empty; the barbecue that had just been grilled had long been eaten up by him.

Wang Zhengliang was a little amused: "Okay, okay, wait for Huzi, I'll grill the skewers for you directly."

How can we eat barbecue and chat without music?

They started playing old songs directly. Yu Yu had heard some of those classic songs before, but he had not done any research on some of them. So when they came to songs he was not familiar with, he had the opportunity to continue eating the barbecue and listening to his brothers' passionate chorus while laughing foolishly.

When they played some touching and inspirational songs, perhaps thinking of the hardships they had gone through along the way, the sensitive Lu Hu couldn't help but shed tears.

Wang Yuexin, who was actually equally gentle at heart, hugged him, and when Lu Hu hugged him back, he couldn't help but stretch out his other hand to hug Yu Yu.

Yu Yu was not as soft and moved as they were. After all, he was a person who had struggled at the end of his life and completely let go. He felt that he had suffered hardships along the way, but he did not think he was miserable.

In fact, he thought what Su Xing said was quite right. They were just a group of people being observed. There were many people who had a bumpy life, and some were even more difficult.

Yu Yu rubbed the back of Lu Hu's head and said softly, "Just live out your own meaning and value, and then you will die without regrets."

He picked up a piece of chicken wing and put it in the Land Rover bowl: "We are all doing what we like, our favorite careers."

"Yes, I am now running my own studio. I write songs for myself and OSTs for others. Regardless of whether my songs are more popular than me, my works have always been seen by the public. For me, this is my meaning and value."

Lu Hu nodded heavily. He felt that he had reconciled with himself...

not at all.

When he played "Boundless Oceans, Vast Skies", he would still eat while crying. Halfway through crying, he would eat a bite and then continue crying.

Wang Yuexin's eyes were red, but she was amused by Lu Hu's state. Yu Yu was sitting on the other side of him, seeing him crying while eating and trying to hum along with the lyrics, she felt that he was a little busy and couldn't pick up the food by himself, so she considerately picked up the food for him so that he wouldn't have nothing to eat while crying.

Seeing that his brothers were enjoying the music, Su Xing suggested that everyone could play a song they liked. After listening to it, Lu Hu immediately started promoting a song by Guo Yifan, a niche singer whom he had liked very much recently.

Not for any other reason, but because he thought the lyrics written by the other person were really good, he really appreciated them, and felt that more people should see them.

Su Xing looked at Lu Hu who was trying hard to recommend his friend's songs to others in front of the camera, and couldn't help but smile. Hu Zi was like this, always altruistic, always able to find the shining points in others, and liked to give to others.

Perhaps it was Land Rover's empathy and gentleness towards others that touched Su Xing, or perhaps it was the mood after a few cups of tea. Su Xing, who always made himself look sentimental and thorny, now had red eyes.

Although he kept arguing that he didn't cry, his eyes were just slightly wet.

Zhang Yuan knew that Su Xing was actually a kind and gentle person at heart. He restrained himself from showing his emotions while pinching his shoulders to comfort him.

Su Xing patted his hands implicitly, signaling him to rest assured.

Almost all the brothers around him began to release or suppress their emotions, leaving Yu Yu alone. He was holding a can of beer tea, resting his head on one arm, leaning on the back of a chair, with an overly sweet smile on his face, silently watching everyone else.

"I've already told you that I'm just spinning around. Look at Yu Yu, that's what crying is, okay?"

Yu Yu's excessive silence finally caught Su Xing's attention, and he suddenly cue him.

"Ah?" Yu Yu subconsciously touched his face, and felt the wetness on his fingertips, only to find that he had already shed tears. However, he did not feel sad, instead he felt very happy.

Maybe it was because their little brother's usual overly sunny and naughty image was deeply rooted in people's minds, and now seeing Yu Yu's tearful face, several brothers did not react at first.

After coming to his senses, Chen Tansheng took out two pieces of paper, handed one to Yu Yu, and kept the other for himself.

Wang Zhengliang also began to touch Yu Yu's tear-stained face in a teasing tone: "Oh, why was our Xiaoyu sitting alone crying just now? Look at her face, it's so tearful."

His tone successfully made Yu Yu burst into laughter. No, he was already laughing: "I am laughing and crying. It's a happy smile, okay!"

Yu Yu wiped his eyes helplessly: "I just think that after more than ten years, we can still sit together and drink and talk, which is really wonderful. I am very happy to have a group of sincere, kind, reliable and talented friends like you."

"I have lived for thirty-three years, but I have been able to have a friendship with you for half of my life. How lucky am I?"

It is a gain to live a second life, and he is so lucky to have met such a group of lovely friends in most of his life.

Of course, Yu Yu never thought about whether she deserved to encounter such a happy thing, or she doubted the authenticity of it all and did not dare to expect other things that she should expect in life.

But because all this was so real, he was so happy that he cried.

"It's actually our luck," Su Xing raised his teacup and clinked it with Yu Yu's. "Yu Yu, you may think you are just doing the little things you can for your friends, but if you hadn't taken me abroad to release an album... I might still be struggling in the quagmire of negative assets."

Su Xing's final words were choked with sobs as he was deeply moved.

The other brothers were speechless, but they raised their teacups and clinked glasses with the two of them.

Yu Yu has done so many "little things within her ability" for them.

"What are you doing? You all look so serious. Are you planning to line up to thank me?" Yu Yu looked at the faces of his brothers and started to make jokes to ease the atmosphere. "Are you going to start a heartfelt emotional game? Then I have to say it too."

"It's right to be grateful. My brothers are a group of sincere people and of course they are grateful, but there's no need to take this matter too far, let alone feel grateful and indebted."

"Friends, without you, without your company, I am not even sure if I can keep going. I might have compromised with my family's arrangements a long time ago."

Yu Yu smiled and hugged the people around him, shaking hands with the people on both sides: "We have come to this day by supporting each other, please believe this, and please face up to your own energy."

"Yu said it very well." Chen Xinsheng clinked glasses with Yu Yu, somewhat touched. "The reason why we can come together till now, and can sit here and show each other our softness and vulnerability, is because we have never regarded each other as obstacles to be overcome."

"So even if we cry, they are tears of emotion and joy. Thank you for being with us along the way."

"Thank you!" Under the moonlight at the seaside, seven people in the tent raised their glasses together.

Chen Qiesheng got up and went to the toilet. When he came back, he walked directly to the staff of the program team opposite and said that he wanted to give them a raise.

It looks like the white tea is in place.

The other six people who were still sober quickly ran over to watch. Su Xing even turned on the video recorder. This classic scene had to be recorded.

After Chen Xiansheng came back, everyone started dancing on the beach again. Although Yu Yu was not good at dancing, she could tame her limbs if the atmosphere was right.

After learning to dance "Love You" with Zhang Yuan, Chen Qisheng took the initiative to pull the staff below to dance together. The quiet beach immediately turned into a stage for everyone's team-building party for "Happy Start Again".

Only when they were tired of partying did they return to the tent to continue resting and drinking.

Chen Xiansheng was inspired and suggested that they should leave some musical works in this program, but as everyone is a little tipsy or drunk now, it is likely that they will not be able to write them tonight.

Yu Yu is still sober now, he can write, after all, he is a magical creature who can produce a masterpiece even when he is blacking out. But when he heard that his brother Sheng was so drunk on tea that he couldn't even straighten his tongue and looked groggy, he decided to forget it and finish it early to let these old people have a rest.

Of course, considering the amount of tea they drink and the pace at which they drink it, a few more cups would probably be almost full.

Thinking of this, Yu Yu decided to go to the bathroom first, and then move the people who might be lying dead into the tent after coming back.

But to his surprise, when he came back, he did not see a drunken scene, but they were very "sober".

Lu Hu was casually playing the guitar and singing a song, while Chen Qisheng and Wang Zhengliang were sitting beside him crying their hearts out.

On the other side, the remaining three people were also crying together. Su Xing was not just walking around, he was really crying loudly while holding a crumpled piece of paper, and talking to others while crying.

? He just went to the toilet, right? He was gone for a short while, and these six brothers, who were almost 230 years old in total, turned into old crybabies?

Yu Yu didn't understand, but was greatly shocked.

Chen Hesheng, Wang Zhengliang and Lu Hu are easy to understand. They are soft-hearted and easily moved by emotionally rich music. But what about Su Xing and the others?

When Yu Yu got closer, she heard Su Xing talking about how TY had forced him to dress up as a woman in the play "A Midsummer Night's Dream".

He stopped and looked at the camera.

Yu Yu was already abroad when this happened, but he also knew about the play.

Although Su Xing insisted at the time that he was sacrificing for art in the face of outside doubts and boycotts, his group of old friends all understood that he did not do it voluntarily.

Of course, there are deeper reasons and shadows behind this, which are related to his experience of being discriminated against and bullied when he was studying in Australia. He was just a teenager at the time and looked thin and delicate.

He has always been reluctant to recall the frustrating experience of performing in a play dressed as a woman. Maybe he drank too much tonight and talked about the past. He couldn't contain his past pain and boredom in front of his brothers.

This shot is still being filmed. Although Zhao Hao is unlikely to release it, Yu Yu thinks that the first thing Su Xing will do when he gets up the next day is to delete this shot of him.

Yu Yu walked up to Su Xing again and patted his shoulder: "What are you guys talking about? You seem so happy?"

"Ah, Yuyu." Su Xing habitually reached out and embraced Yu Yu's legs, but now he didn't think this action was strange. "Nothing, we are reminiscing about the past."

Zhang Yuan wiped his tears and deliberately joked: "Let me tell you, Yuyu, people who are getting older just like to reminisce about the past."

"That's right, look at this guy, he never stops talking, how dare we interrupt him?" Wang Yuexin, whose eyes were swollen from crying, said disdainfully.

Yu Yu did not expose the two people's behavior of helping Su Xing to change the subject. He pretended to know nothing and deliberately said to Zhao Hao: "Brother Hao, can you give me a copy of your footage when the time comes, or give me some wonderful screenshots. It's rare for Allen Su to cry bitterly. I must keep this as a souvenir."

"That's definitely not possible! Don't dream!" Su Xing immediately let go of his hands that were holding Yu Yu's legs.

Yu Yu winked at Zhao Hao, dragged a stool and sat next to Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuan looked at Yu Yu and chatted, "Yu Yu, you see, you are only 33 years old, but you have almost traveled all over the world, seen the prosperity of the world, and visited places that many people may never visit in their lifetime. Have you ever thought about what your future will be like?"

"Who can predict the future?" Yu Yu shook his head. "Just like us fifteen years ago, could we have imagined that we would be sitting together chatting and drinking like this now?"

“If a person can really plan his future clearly, then he has probably reached the end. After all, only when you know where your destination is, you will know how much time you have left and can start planning everything.”

Zhang Yuan then asked, "Have you ever imagined what your funeral would be like?"

Funeral? He had asked the right person. After all, people who often hold funerals know how to hold their own funerals without making any mistakes.

"Of course I have to record a message in advance, which is probably about how many places I have been to before I die. Have you been there? You can't even compare to a dead person. Remember to give more red envelopes for funerals."

"No, you want it right there at the funeral?" Su Xing felt that Yu Yu was being a little outrageous.

"It's better than me telling you in a dream afterwards. That would be so embarrassing. What if I scared people to death?" Yu Yu said innocently. "Of course I will compose a song in advance and release it worldwide on the day of the funeral. It won't be a loss for the guests to be the first to hear it."

"I even have songs in my head right now, just wait till I get a guitar."

Su Xing, Zhang Yuan and Wang Yuexin looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes. They just said that and chatted, how come Yu Yu even came up with his own "Requiem"? So quickly?

Of course not, it’s ready-made.
