Chapter 53: A Different Story

"Haha, when you kid said that, I was curious, what kind of girl can make you put so much effort into composing such a piano piece?" Liu Zhihuan first laughed and asked, the meaning of ridicule in his words was already obvious.

"Let's talk about it, there must be a deep story behind an excellent song." Zhang Cailing also said with a smile.

"Let's speak up and satisfy everyone's curiosity." Pei Qiang, who was not good at words, also spoke.

"I just like to listen to gossip." The gossip on Wu Xinyi's face was already burning.

Li Manqing didn't speak, just looked at Fu Yao with a smile, she knew that in this situation on this occasion, Fu Yao would tell this story no matter what, she didn't need to ask, and she was also full of expectations for this story.

After glancing at everyone, Fu Yao nodded and began to speak.

"I wrote this piece when I dropped out of school a month ago, and that was a year ago." Fu Yao said softly with a smile on his face.

The story he is going to tell next is not Beethoven's story, of course, but a story of his own experience, at that time, he also played this "To Alice" for the girl, but at that time this piano piece was still a household name in the world.

"Now everyone knows that the things in my family, I dropped out of school at that time, I was very depressed, my father's injury, the family's predicament, plus I left school and my dreams, I was in a very bad mood, and even had thoughts of suicide at one point, at that time I felt that the whole sky had fallen, and I was not ready to face everything at all." When Fu Yao said this, he still had that faint, calm and happy smile on his face.

"It was probably a month after I dropped out of school, and I was still in a daze, I didn't look for a job, I hadn't touched a guitar for a month, I hadn't sung a song for a month, and I didn't even take the initiative to listen to a song."

"I thought that this life would be over, but one day, I suddenly met someone, a person that I will never forget, a person who changed the fate of my life." When Fu Yao said this, he suddenly laughed, the laughter was very soft, but it was very warm.

"I don't know her name, but I came to the beach alone that day, and she was there, and when I saw her, I was full of curiosity about her." Fu Yao said.

When Fu Yao said this, everyone guessed that the 'she' in his mouth was Alice, the protagonist of this song.

"She walked very slowly, very carefully, very hard, she was blind, and she could only move forward with a cane."

"I wondered, why did a blind girl come to the beach alone? Why is she unaccompanied? So from the moment I found her, I kept an eye on her, but when she stood still on the beach, she turned her head and smiled and asked me, 'Do you think I'm weird?' ’”

"She is blind, I don't know how she knows I'm looking at her, but when she asks me, the smile on her face is very relaxed, no meaning of gloom or inferiority, to be honest, she is not beautiful, even ugly, because her eyes can't see a trace of black, all dead white, it looks even a little scary, but it's strange, I don't feel horrified, but I see her smile, my heart is inexplicably relaxed."

"Why did you come to the beach alone? I asked her. ”

"Because I don't want people to take the time to take care of me. She replied with a smile. ”

"I don't understand, why does such a girl laugh all the time, doesn't she feel miserable?"

"Would you like to hear my story? She asked me, 'Why should I listen to your story?' I asked her, puzzled. ”

"'Because I have only three or four days to live, and I want to talk to someone at the end of my time, would you like to hear it?' She was still smiling, and I didn't understand, I was going to die, and what was there to be happy about. ”

"'Say it, I'll listen.' 'If I tell you that I am happy, will you believe me?' She said. I don't believe that a blind man is going to die, what happiness is there? She didn't wait for me to answer, but continued: 'I have been blind since I was a child, congenital deformities, I have never seen any color except darkness, but I can feel many things that others can't feel, since I was a child, my family has taken great care of me, loved me, because I can't see, so my family put more energy on me, I know that the conditions at home are not very good, in order to treat me, I spent everything, I am not only blind, but also congenital leukemia, It's in the advanced stage, and there is no cure. ’”

She said, "I listen." When she said this, she always had that happy smile on her face, and when she said all this, she was so calm, so calm, so natural. I was in pain when I was sick, but I was still happy because I knew they cared about me, maybe they saw me in pain, and they were in more pain, so I always smiled at them and made them think I wasn't in pain. ’”

"'Because I knew that I might not live long, I cherished the time I was alive, I laughed every day, whether I was happy or not, I laughed, because my laughter made my family happier, I felt everything around me with my heart, I felt it.'" ”

"'Have you ever heard the sound of a flower blooming?' Have you ever heard the melody of raindrops falling on the eaves? Have you ever heard the sound of seeds breaking through the ground? Have you ever heard the sweet breath of a puppy when he is asleep? I've heard all of this, although I don't live long, and I can't see, but I have received more love from my family, even if I am dying, I feel that I am happy, because I can finally reduce the burden on my family, although they will be sad for a while, but they will not have to work hard for me, they just need to remember me in their hearts, remember me, and I will be moved and happy below. ’”

"She said a lot, she said she used to dance in the green fields, she said she slept among the flowers, she said she sang in the birds, she said she waited for the dawn in the night."

"She told me about her short and tragic life, but I felt incomparably warm and joyful, she was enjoying her life, although her life was too imperfect, but she took it as a gift from heaven, to enjoy it, to cherish it, and I was finally convinced that she was indeed happy."

After listening to her words, I suddenly thought, why is it better for me to be sound than a girl who is not sound by nature? Her strength and optimism made me see a new life, or perhaps it can be said that she is the dawn that illuminates my life and makes me see the meaning of life thoroughly. ”

"It took me two days to compose this piece, and then I went to the beach to wait for her, but she never appeared again, perhaps, she is no longer alive, but she is the gentlest and strongest girl I have ever seen."

When he said this, Fu Yao's smile was finally a little sour, and tears had flashed in his eyes.

The expressions of everyone at the scene were very subtle, and they were all moved by the story told by Fu Yao.

(Changed the story to Alice, it's not that I don't respect the original book, it's the plot needs, I hope that everyone will be like the girl in this chapter at any time, full of hope for life, full of gratitude, and enjoy every moment of life, of course, this is difficult to do, but, at least try it, I wish you all happiness.) )
