……

It felt like stepping back in time, like the same scene as a year ago, the same lyrics, the same music, but with a different feeling. Tonight's concert was truly a concert.

While it may seem simple in a simplistic sense, it is, on a deeper level, a grand spectacle of joy, with each lyric seemingly describing an emotion that turns away from our own dreams.

Everyone's face reflects their own thoughts, just as everyone wears different makeup. No one will remember what you look like, nor will anyone know what makeup you wore or what lipstick you used. When all of this is just your own self-righteousness and what you express on your face, your future and your dreams will be different from everyone else's.

Xu Fan's lyrics excited every audience member present, regardless of where they went to call up friends after drinking or where they hid in a corner, stubbornly singing those bitter songs.

Whether it's listening to what certain people say or what certain singers sing, listening to them get lost in the noise and then suddenly remembering something, it's like a friend next to you suddenly picking up a glass of wine, wanting to say something to you.

The simple announcements of rank were easy for everyone to listen to attentively and comfortably. Everyone glanced at the screens, while those sitting further away in the middle of the stage looked at the two large screens in the center.

Everyone could see the expression on Xu Fan's face and the way he played the guitar. As everyone listened to Xu Fan's song and gradually drank a few glasses of wine, their emotions became incredibly excited.

……

One cup to the rising sun, one cup to the moonlight, awakening my longing, softening the cold window, so I can fly against the wind without looking back, unafraid of rain in my heart, frost in my eyes, one cup to my hometown.

A toast to those far away, who cherish my kindness and urge me to grow. So the road between north and south is no longer long, and my soul is no longer adrift.

The restless guests, self-importantly performing, pretending, dancing, and exhausted.

One cup to the rising sun, one cup to the moonlight, one cup to my hometown, one cup to the distant land, one cup to tomorrow, one cup to the past, one cup to freedom, one cup to death. Forgive my ordinariness, it dispels my confusion. Well, after dawn, things are always rushed, and the most absurd are those who leave the stage sober.

The lyrics are simple yet full of meaning. Everyone can hear what Xu Fan is saying and the meaning expressed in the lyrics. The connection in sales, the constant drinking, one glass after another, using his words to toast everyone. Yes, toasting here is actually toasting everyone.

Everyone's life is like this; it's time for us to experience everything.

We revere the rising sun, we revere the moonlight, we revere our hometown, and we also revere the distant horizon. We strive for tomorrow, for the past, and for freedom, and even for death—a young man leaving his homeland.

But this image of the sorrows and burdens of ordinary life, which are carried on a heavy journey, is conveyed through such simple lyrics, which are meant to evoke images of Xu Fan's hometown and distant places, as well as the growth of kindness and so on.

It resonated with young people who are struggling in life but sometimes feel powerless. The simple lyrics of this song can bring tears to everyone's eyes. This song was once very popular.

Countless people across the internet have come to love this song, and numerous celebrities and singers have also expressed interest in it. The reason a singer wanted to commission Xu Fan to write a song was because of this song. But tonight is different; tonight Xu Fan is singing an old song.

It's an old song, and its sudden appearance was a delightful surprise for everyone. It's one of Xu Fan's most popular songs, but it was also this song that brought back memories of a year ago for every audience member.

It felt like returning to my fragmented past, thinking about those scenes I didn't know how to describe. Everyone's life has all sorts of things, and everyone's future is different.

At that moment, while singing "Sorrow," the screams and shouts continued, and more and more people were already singing along. The lyrics brought tears to my eyes without my even realizing it.

Tears kept falling, making everyone's mood increasingly heavy. Only then did everyone in this lesson realize that Xu Fan had said at the beginning, "No matter what, please don't shed tears."

Because we are all moving forward in service, when Xu Fan's song ended with the last line, "The most absurd thing is that people are cleaning up," when applause rang out, when this scene was captured in the live broadcast room, when countless netizens were going crazy over Xu Fan's song.

Xu Fan, on the other hand, is known for his humility. He always bows to thank his fans after each song.

This was not the end of the concert, but only the beginning. After singing just one song, Xu Fan bowed to express his gratitude, and the applause from the audience was once again incredibly enthusiastic. Countless people were excited because of Xu Fan.

Even those who might not like Xu Fan subconsciously liked this scene. Most importantly, the song they liked was very soothing. Even some of the reporters at the scene were silently wiping away tears, which shows how shocking the song was. Countless people on the internet were on the first floor, and even more people were looking forward to Xu Fan's next song.

"Listening to 'Sorrow' again is still so beautiful; his whistle is still so elegant and soothing. Each of these eight cups of wine is so comforting. A long time ago, when I first heard this song, I was moved to tears. Today, listening to it again still makes me extremely sad. But I am now completely different from who I used to be."

"Stories are just stories, but Xu Fan's singing is heart-wrenching. When he wrote this song, I was still in school. Now, a year has passed in the blink of an eye, and I have long since wiped away my tears. I am trying my best to look forward."

"The world of young people is always prone to collapse. This song really touched my heart. I'm grateful to Xu Fan for composing this song, and I'm also grateful to hear Brother Fan sing it again tonight."

"I'm so excited and happy! It's a pity I couldn't be here in person, but what's even more exciting is that I heard an old song again, and it's my favorite song!"

Every glass of wine touched the depths of my heart, and every person I met touched the depths of my soul. In our lives, we will always meet and miss many important people, but once it has all happened, it cannot be changed and there is no need to change it.

"Thank you, Brother Fan, for bringing us such a beautiful song again tonight. Thank you, you've shown me how to work hard."

As soon as the song ended, the topics on Weibo changed again. The topic of Xu Fan singing an old song instantly rose to the top of the trending search list and was noticed by countless people. Xu Fan sang "Xiao Chou," and this song was of utmost importance.

As everyone knows, Xu Fan stayed on the show "The Coming One" because of this song. Later, Xu Fan sang songs like "Like Me" and others, all of which were based on this song.

It was because of this song that he was able to develop in the way he did later. If Xu Fan hadn't sung "Xiao Chou" at the time, but instead sung two songs of the same level as the ones he sang at the beginning, perhaps Xu Fan wouldn't have become the champion of the first season of Mingzhi last year.

Perhaps Xu Fan wouldn't hold such a grand concert today, but the key point here is very important: everyone present clearly understands that Xu Fan chose to sing an old song as his first song tonight, and that old song was naturally exciting.

The intention was to let everyone feel its beginning, so netizens have also paid close attention to why Xu Fan sang "Xiao Chou" (a type of folk song) as his first song, and all sorts of messages have been appearing on Weibo.

Even under various topics, fans on other live streaming platforms are constantly making similar comments, and then bringing these comments from years ago to Weibo to attract even more attention. The topic of Xu Fan's concert featuring the re-enactment of an old song by Hyo-hee has gone viral.

Xu Fan, of course, was unaware of all this. After finishing his song and bowing, he looked at every audience member and fan present and earnestly asked again, "Do you all think this song is good?"

The questions were simple, direct, and straightforward, but in the midst of this straightforward questioning, shouts erupted instantly, with countless people cheering and saying "it sounds good."

It sounds great!

The words "pleasant to hear" kept echoing in Xu Fan's ears. In a sense, this was the best proof. Xu Fan smiled slightly and was also very moved. His excited mood gradually calmed down.

He was excited because the grand concert had begun; he was excited because there were countless fans in the audience, more than he had ever seen before; he was excited because he had chosen to sing "Sorrow" as his first song of the night.

Because it was this song that enabled him to enter the later stages of The Coming One. Although every song is important, Xu Fan's favorite is still this one, so he is excited and happy at this moment.

But the concert certainly couldn't end there, so he looked at the audience again and said, "Alright, the old songs are over. Now I'll be bringing you a new song, 'We Always Meet in the Summer'."

We always bump into each other on the street, we always meet important people in our lives, and we also lose important people. We always unintentionally meet those we can't live without for the rest of our lives, for reasons unknown. So, I hope you all like the first new song tonight.

After he finished speaking, the cheers and applause from the fans and music lovers rang out again, and the viewers in the live stream were even more excited because they had heard Xu Fan's words.

Because they knew Xu Fan would be singing a new song, which would be the first new song of the night, and also the first new song of the final concert of Xu Fan's concert series.

Just then, Xu Fan's calm expression softened slightly as he spoke, "The title of the new song is 'Encounter'."

Just like what Xu Fan just said, we always unexpectedly meet the most important people in our lives, but at the time we don't pay attention, and we also unintentionally lose those important people.

We just didn't realize it at the time, which is why there are always so many coincidences in life. Just like today's concert, which allowed Xu Fan to meet all the fans and let each fan meet her on the spot. So Xu Fan said that the song title is "Jade Sister". The melody started in the next second and it was so beautiful that the familiar voice slowly appeared.

……

Hearing winter depart.

I woke up in a certain month of a certain year

I think, I wait, I look forward to it.

The future, however, cannot be planned for because of this.

(End of this chapter)

===Chapter 824 New Song "Encounter"===

This is the first new song at the final stop of Xu Fan's global tour, and the song is called "Encounter".

This refers not only to his encounters with everyone last summer, but also to his encounters with everyone at this concert this year, and even more so to his encounters with all the fans watching his concert right now.

Because of that encounter, the story that followed unfolded. Because of that summer, that day, that night, this song made everyone remember the name Xu Fan. It was also that night.

Everyone came to know Xu Fan because everyone who met him was impressed by him, because Xu Fan created not only songs, but also movies and TV series.

Each of the songs or movies is an absolute classic on its own, and that one TV series is an outstanding anti-corruption film, without exception.

Because of the encounter, the story became so romantic, and people always say this when they talk about the people at today's concert.

Xu Fan's song "Encounter" is simply heavenly. The sudden appearance of that song, word by word, touches the heartstrings and makes people want to remember it.

At that moment, when Xu Fan's voice appeared on stage, cheers erupted from the fans. The sound of the sea echoed throughout the stage like thunder.

At this moment, tens of thousands of spectators were thrilled, each waving their glow sticks and calling out to Xu Fan in their own way.

At this moment, Xu Fan was also earnestly singing every lyric, his pronunciation was very clear and predictable, so it was perfect, because of the encounter, everything that happened in the future came about.

Xu Fan chose this song as his first new song tonight largely because he wanted to express that past encounter.

This current encounter is, of course, more important than his previous encounter with Xia Ziling, and his later encounter with Xiao Pu as a homebuyer and a real estate agent.

That was his second encounter with Xiao Pu, but for him, it was the most important encounter in his life, along with his first meeting with Shui'er.

At that time, Shui'er was just an orphan. He was kidnapped by human traffickers and followed the old man on his journey.

The old man was searching for Shui'er's biological parents, while the old man himself was also searching for his biological son. The two, an old man and a young girl, who depended on each other for survival, met him.

That led to his later secrets. He also looked forward to, or rather, wanted to talk about those yoga sessions with other people, such as his first meeting with An Lanyue.

That was during a chase after human traffickers. At that time, An Lanyue was a police officer. He was very nervous, or rather, An Lanyue was carefree and relaxed. Later, there were many other opinions.

For example, An Kun is just a taxi driver, but their encounter leads Xu Fan to find information about his father.

For example, Chen Yuanyuan. His and Chen Yuanyuan's premonition was actually a coincidence. One day in the country of Gran, a thief reduced the price to eight hundred yuan, which was ridiculous.

Xu Fan ran with Chen Yuanyuan, and they got to know each other. Later, Chen Yuanyuan took a bullet for him, and at that moment he realized that Chen Yuanyuan would be one of the most important people in his life.

There are many other people I've met, all from that summer or this past year, and all from different periods of time in the past, which is why I have these feelings now.

Time is constantly changing, and everyone has their own imagined and unforeseen futures appearing around them. A certain spring seems to have just passed.

It was springtime when we heard winter depart, just as spring was about to arrive in our future. I suddenly woke up at a certain point in a certain month of a certain year.

Like flowers in spring, like green grass in spring, Lü Yang suddenly appeared. I think I wait, I look forward to the future, I look forward to the next meeting, but it can't be because of my expectations.

So fate will unfold as I expect; the story is often not so serious, but more often dramatic.

Xu Fan's singing continued to play, and everyone in the audience listened very attentively.

On a cloudy evening, outside the car window, someone in the future is waiting. Look left, right, and forward; love will take several turns before it arrives.

The loss and arrival of many things in life always happen unexpectedly without any reason, often because you never considered them.

That's why it's called an accident. It's precisely because you couldn't have foreseen it that you're at a loss. Often, what we think we know will become fragmented.

Like a road you thought was leading forward, only to find at the end that it leads to a nomadic tribe or even a circle, you keep running but always end up at a crossroads. Life is like that too; many dangers are unpredictable.

When the sky suddenly starts to rain heavily, when the white clouds suddenly turn black, when the word "torrential rain" becomes everyone's thought, when everything becomes unexpected.

On a cloudy evening, time always slips away beside us. Our eyes are looking out the car window, out of the stage, and out of the camera lens.

Looking at all the places we cannot touch, life often slips away at such moments, and stories often end at such moments.

We all know that there will always be people waiting for you in the future, and we also know that there will always be people in the future who will be with you because they like you. However, the person who is waiting in the future may not necessarily be able to stay with you forever.

How should we proceed on the road ahead? No one knows, no one is certain. Looking ahead and moving forward, turning left or right—all these directions represent the uncertainties we will encounter in the future.

Feeling lost, we don't know what the future holds, nor do we know which direction it will take—left or right. These are directions we cannot determine.

How can one win the love of another? How can one love another in return? How many twists and turns does love take, how many encounters does it involve? Life is often like this.

We thought everything would fall into place naturally, we thought everything would be taken for granted, but when love becomes something uncertain, we find that everything is both simple and complicated.

There are countless comments online, especially various voices from eLong, which are constantly playing out in various live streaming rooms, whether it's Weibo, Douyin, or other live streaming platforms.

At this moment, when Xu Fan simply appeared on the sword in the video, when they watched Xu Fan sing earnestly, and when they listened to Xu Fan's simple yet very beautiful melody, they couldn't help but want to say something nice.
