“I still remember when Fan Ge participated in The Coming One, he said, ‘My name is Xu Fan, the Fan of ordinary.’ Perhaps he only wanted to be ordinary from the very beginning.”

"Not content with mediocrity, so they choose to be ordinary, ordinary yet warm. I love this voice. What a lovely group of children."

Xu Fan and his children's song "As Long As We Are Ordinary" was accidentally posted online by the waiters at a hot pot restaurant, and then it went viral and became a sensation across the internet.

Yes, happiness lies in the ordinary and simple life one leads.

Perhaps it takes countless hardships and tears in a lifetime to earn a few moments of感动 (moving experiences), moments that are etched in the heart and disturb the world.

While netizens were discussing the song, they were also discussing Xu Fan and the children.

The already simple and beautiful song, sung by the children's pure voices, paired with Xu Fan's simple and beautiful piano playing, became even more beautiful.

Meanwhile, the number of people at that hot pot restaurant was increasing.

Perhaps they simply wanted to take a look to see if Xu Fan was really in Chengdu, or maybe they just thought it was getting late and they might have a meal there and maybe even see Xu Fan.

Anyway, everyone with this idea was heading towards the hot pot restaurant.

The boss's face lit up with a wide smile.

There are so many ordinary people in this world; they may be ordinary, or they may be tragic.

There will also be delightful surprises that will make him laugh heartily all day long.

Xu Fan stayed at the hotel with Zhao Feiyang and the others, helping the children take showers and change clothes one by one.

Li Xiaoran was in charge of the little girls, while Xu Fan and Zhao Feiyang helped the boys.

Every child was very obedient and attentive.

They never imagined that they would become an internet sensation.

In particular, a video on Douyin (TikTok) has been getting more and more reposted and viewed. The reason for this is that after watching these children, the person in charge of Douyin suddenly remembered the mudslide that happened in Zhoucheng not long ago.

Then some videos from that time came out, and they discovered that these children were the children left behind after the mudslide in Zhoucheng.

The girl sitting next to Xu Fan, leading the singing, was a volunteer teacher at the elementary school in Zhoucheng.

This is a story, coupled with the children's innocent voices. After receiving approval from General Manager Liu, Douyin staff launched another large-scale promotion on Douyin.

It has nothing to do with Xu Fan; it's all for the sake of those children.

As netizens listened to the singing in the video and watched the children singing earnestly with smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes, many couldn't help but shed tears.

Loneliness arises from this, as the story of Zhoucheng merges with the children's.

When the slow melody of this song was sung by a group of children, they were slowly moved.

The children became famous unintentionally.

Also gaining popularity was Li Xiaoran, the volunteer teacher.

No one knows her name, but she is the most beautiful.

Xu Fan is truly amazing; he has created another classic song.

This song was written for children.

The children take a bath and go to bed.

Xu Fan, Zhao Feiyang, and Li Xiaoran walked out of the hotel.

Xu Fan ignored the things that were circulating online.

Only Zhao Feiyang would occasionally look at his phone and mutter a few words, such as: "Old Xu, netizens are praising you to the skies again." Or: "Xiao Ran, do you like the title of 'Most Beautiful Volunteer Teacher'?"

Xu Fan and Li Xiaoran didn't really pay attention to it. Anyway, it was one thing for this guy to be fat, but he was also a real chatterbox.

The night view of Chengdu is different from that of Zhonghai.

The moonlight was somewhat similar, with wispy white clouds blocking the light, but the lamplight was quite different; the lights in Chengdu were much softer.

There are fewer cars on the road at night.

Perhaps it's because busy people can finally rest.

Perhaps it's because the city is inherently lonely at night.

The city seems really laid-back; you can occasionally hear the laughter of winners and the complaints of losers coming from the nearby mahjong parlors.

The young people at the barbecue stall might be middle-aged men.

In early autumn, they were still shirtless, drinking beer and eating kidneys.

Li Xiaoran said, "I've gotten used to this city, and nowhere else feels right."

Zhao Feiyang grinned and said, "I just really like eating hot pot."

Li Xiaoran said, "It's more fun to eat with more people. I still prefer to eat maocai when I'm alone."

These topics are pointless, Xu Fan said, "Why don't we go for a walk ahead, or..."

Li Xiaoran said, "Let's go sit in a small bar instead."

The fat man said, "Isn't it more lively in the bar?"

"I don't like crowds."

Xu Fan and Li Xiaoran spoke in unison, then couldn't help but laugh. Xu Fan said, "I've always heard that the small bars in Chengdu are very stylish, so it would be nice to go and have a seat."

Li Xiaoran said, "Let me take you to our first meeting."

"First Encounter" is the name of a small bar located on Yulin Road, and it's not particularly special.

There are countless inconspicuous taverns like this along the road, with people coming and going every night.

Xu Fan and his two companions entered the small tavern under the guidance of Li Xiaoran.

The tavern owner, a woman, warmly greeted the three of them in the night.

The pub is decorated in a somewhat old-fashioned style, giving off a sense of antiquity from the 1970s and 80s as soon as you enter.

Li Xiaoran said that there is a place called Dongjiao Memory in Chengdu, which has a lot of small bars and music and bars are integrated, making it more comfortable.

Yulin Road, on the other hand, is much more monotonous.

When the three entered, there were only a few small tables scattered around the tavern.

There was also music playing slowly, and Zhao Feiyang said in surprise, "Why can I hear your songs everywhere I go?"

Li Xiaoran said, "People in this city live at a slower pace, so many people in this city like to listen to music. In addition, many people are working hard but are very tired these days, so your song naturally became very popular. Besides, the bar has a special connection with folk music."

Xu Fan said, "It's quite quiet here."

At the owner's invitation, the three of them sat down and ordered several jugs of rice wine, two plates of beef, and some nostalgic snacks.

Zhao Feiyang felt he needed to digest the food after eating so much hot pot, so he ordered a plate of cucumbers.

In the dim light not far away, a resident singer was playing the guitar.

He was singing "A Person Like Me".

Even when the singing was particularly good, there wasn't necessarily applause, because everyone in the tavern was quietly chatting.

Xu Fan and the others would occasionally glance at it unconsciously.

Xu Fan and the fat man had many reflections; time flies and things always change.

Xiao Ran said she went to teach in the remote Zhoucheng because she was tired of the hustle and bustle of the city. Many people went with her, but she was the only one who stayed in the end.

She was also afraid of being alone, but the children were all so lovely, weren't they?

The fat man picked up his glass with a touch of emotion and said, "Let's have a drink."

The tavern was quiet until applause finally broke out. Perhaps the song touched a customer's heart, as the young man singing said, "It's really beautiful."

The resident singer said thank you, gently holding his guitar, probably preparing to sing another song.

The customer suddenly looked up at the young man and said, "Could you sing 'Broken Bridge in Lingering Snow' for me?"

The young man smiled and said, "Okay."

The sky over Chengdu was beginning to lighten.

A light rain fell on the city, and the drizzle continued.

A taxi stopped in front of the First Encounter Bar.

A woman wearing a T-shirt and jeans got off the bus, carrying a small cat-shaped bag on her back and answering a phone call in her hand.

"I've arrived. This should be him."

“I’ve told you so many times, he sings really well, and he’s here tonight.”

"Don't worry, I'll definitely get the footage you need."

"Okay, I understand. I won't let you down. Just don't forget what you promised me after it's done."

The woman hung up the phone, glanced at the words "First Encounter" above the bar, a sweet smile appeared on her lips, and then she started walking inside.

She casually picked up her phone and glanced at the time: 9:33 PM.

It's not too late to come now.

The girl's name is Gu Yuwei. She is a local from Rongcheng. She is not very tall and looks petite.

The tone of her voice just now was quite different from the way she was looking around now, but looking at her like this, with her short hair, she could indeed be described as cute.

Gu Yuwei walked into the tavern, looked around, then glanced at the bar in the distance, frowned, then her brows relaxed in an instant, revealing a beautiful smile.

The owner came out and invited her to sit down a short distance away. She smiled and thanked him, ordered a small pot of plum wine, and then said thank you again.

While the proprietress went to get the wine, Gu Yuwei took out a brick-like object from her cat-themed cartoon bag.

It is actually a high-definition video recorder.

Yes

She came to take photos secretly because she had discovered a rising star, perhaps a future star.

She made thorough preparations for the night because she had the potential to use this opportunity to become a real talent scout.

When the small pot of plum wine arrived, she ordered a small plate of snacks, and then said to the owner, "Can I request a song?"
