A song from Chengdu revived a closed-down pub.

Chapter 96 The Ordinary Road, Fancheng Bar

The song doesn't involve shouting or yelling, but it's powerful and resonant.

Everyone was completely absorbed in it.

"When you are still dreaming"

Your Tomorrow Via Via

Will she get better or worse?

It was another day for me.

I destroyed everything I had.

I just want to leave forever.

I once fell into boundless darkness

Wanting to struggle but unable to extricate myself

I was once like you, like him, like those wild grasses and flowers.

Despairing yet yearning

I cry and laugh at the same time."

……

Fang Cheng lowered his head and wiped his eyes with his sleeve.

He recalled the most difficult period of his life in Sichuan Province.

He hated it back then—hated the unfairness of fate, hated his own incompetence, and hated those who bullied him.

But those hatreds, when I think about them now, have all turned into smoke and been blown away by the wind.

Suddenly, the music started playing.

Su Fan's tone changed as well, as if he were encouraging someone walking alone at night.

"Just keep moving forward."

Even if you were given something

Just keep walking forward.

Even if you are taken away from something

Just keep walking forward.

Even if you miss something

Just keep walking forward.

Even if you can

……

It wasn't a shout, it was a murmur.

It's like someone whispering in your ear, "Don't be afraid, keep going."

Those hardships.

Those things that were lost.

Those missed opportunities.

Everything will pass.

As long as you keep walking, the road will extend beneath your feet.

Every step is a reconciliation with the past.

Every step is an invitation to the future.

As the song came to a close, Su Fan sang:

Time is silent, just like this.

Tomorrow is already in Hia Hia

The road the wind has blown is still far.

Where did your story end?

……

"Hia Hia" is two soft syllables, like someone laughing or sighing.

The last sentence is a question: "Where did your story leave off?"

It's like asking everyone.

Where did your story end?

Is it just the beginning, or near the end?

Is it a high point or a low point?

unimportant.

The important thing is that you're still talking, and you're still on the road.

The last note faded away and then slowly disappeared.

After listening to this song, I suddenly realized that those hurdles I once thought I couldn't overcome have really passed.

It might not be a heroic comeback; it's just an ordinary person hearing an ordinary song on an ordinary night and thinking that tomorrow should be better.

Being ordinary is not about accepting fate, but about loving life even after recognizing its true nature.

After the song ended, the live stream chat exploded with comments.

"Su Fan, did you plant a spy in my mind?"

"I used to think 'ordinary' was a derogatory term, but now I think that being able to live an ordinary life is already quite remarkable!"

"That's why I like Su Fan. He doesn't sing about those unrealistic and ethereal things; he sings about every ordinary person like us!"

"I'm not going to say anything more. I'm going to look through some old photos and see what I looked like when I was younger!"

"An ordinary road, an extraordinary song. Listening to it makes me feel at ease, as if no matter how difficult the road is, there will always be someone to accompany me!"

……

The comments were still scrolling by when someone suddenly typed in the comments section: "Wait, everyone, look at the song title, 'The Ordinary Road'."

Everyone then pulled their attention away from their emotions and looked again at the four words on the screen.

Then, someone, I don't know who, reacted first, turned their gaze to the bar's sign.

Fancheng Bar.

Ordinary Road, Ordinary Journey Bar.

Isn't the journey just an ordinary one?

This song and this bar seem to be a perfect match.

At this point, someone remarked, "It's not that the bar started playing this song because of its name; it's this song that gives the name its meaning."

Fang Cheng stood behind the bar, looking at the comments on the screen, and suddenly laughed.

He recalled that when they were naming their children, they had simply taken one character each from his own name and Su Fan's name.

He never imagined that these two words could be interpreted in this way.

An ordinary journey, an ordinary trip.

Looking at the room full of silent yet warm guests, Fang Cheng felt that the name was well chosen.

The song "The Ordinary Road" is a song with lyrics by Pu Shu and Han Han, and music composed and sung by Pu Shu.

This song is also the theme song of the movie "The Continent".

Looking at everyone's reactions, Su Fan thought to himself, "Should I make a movie version of it later?!"

After finishing "The Ordinary Road," Su Fan stood on the stage, patted the microphone, and put on a mischievous expression: "Now that you've finished listening to the song, it's time to have a drink. You know, this is a bar, not a karaoke bar."

Everyone laughed at Su Fan's attempt to persuade them to drink, and some people even raised their glasses and waved them at him.

Lin Fang, standing to the side of the stage, seized an opportunity to interject, "I heard there's another duet song. When does it start?"

Su Fan turned to look at her and said seriously, "I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush. This matter isn't urgent, but it needs to be done quickly. Why? Because I know everyone is in a hurry. As far as I know, I still know nothing about it. So, tell me first, which song are you talking about?"

Lin Fang's lips twitched.

This wasn't the first time she'd encountered this kind of nonsensical literature.

The viewers in the live stream weren't experiencing this for the first time, but they were still completely bewildered.

Having learned from her previous experience, Lin Fang was able to accept it calmly.

But seeing Su Fan's innocent expression, she felt an urge to hit him.

At this moment, Lin Fang said, "When in doubt, turn on the live comments."

With a wave of her hand, the live stream chat immediately appeared on the big screen.

Netizens also cooperated and started posting their own comments.

"Stop nagging, bro! Is the microphone burning your mouth or something? Just start singing!"

"Reporter Lin, turn off his microphone, play the backing track, and he'll start singing!"

"Su Fan, if you don't sing soon, I'm going to Chengdu to confront you and demand more updates!"

"The whole nation is watching, mind your image, hurry up and sing!"

……

This tactic worked.

Su Fan said, "Reporter Lin, are you trying to let netizens in without any restrictions?"

Some people in the audience couldn't help but laugh out loud.

But the laughter had barely started when someone realized, "Why do I feel like Su Fan is insulting me? But I have no proof."

Before anyone could react, Su Fan announced, "Next up, I'll be performing 'The Drunkard's Toast' for you all!"

He waved to both sides of the stage, and the artists who had been waiting for a long time filed onto the stage.

They were not lined up in neat rows, and no one directed them to their positions.

Someone moved a high stool and sat down.

Someone was leaning against the bar.

Some people simply stood in the corner with a bottle of beer in hand.

In short, everyone was very casual.

The audience began to discuss it.

"I've never seen anything like this before. Aren't all the celebrities standing in neat rows for a group sing-along? This looks like a disorganized mob!"

"I think I saw that old rock star secretly sniffing the bottle; I recognized his eyes, he really wanted a drink!"

"This is the proper toasting etiquette for a drunkard! Who can stand in formation after drinking so much? You're lucky if you can even stand up straight!"
