Xu Hui looked at the layout of the bar curiously, she came to the bar for the first time, and felt new about everything. The two of them chatted with each other and watched the rehearsal of the band on the small stage.

Around seven o'clock, the bar began to fill up. A few members of the band left the small stage and went to the back to prepare for the performance, which would start at eight o'clock. The bartender at the bar has also been absent for a long time, and he is showing off his skills and fiddling with the bartender bottle in his hand.

"Brother Yu, do you always come to this kind of place?" Xu Hui asked curiously.

"Pretty much. When I was young, I liked to go to Di Bar, and I don't know when I started to feel that Di Bar was a little noisy, just like looking for a place where I could listen to songs and chat with friends. I came and went, and I became a regular customer of the bar. Yu Shan looked at Xu Hui and asked, "How do you feel?" ”

"It's good." Xu Hui replied casually. I drank the red wine in small sips, feeling the sourness in the mouth, and then the sweet taste turned back. "I feel a lot more relaxed now." In fact, she was only slightly relaxed, and her whole person still seemed a little restrained.

Yu Shan smiled and didn't expose her. Pick up the drink in front of you and take a big sip.

Xu Hui was a little strange and asked, "Why don't you drink red wine?" ”

"Can't drink it, allergies." Yu Shan said: "When I was in college, I once drank stomach bleeding and was hospitalized for a week. When it comes out again, you won't be able to drink any alcohol. ”

Yu Shan has a wealth of experience and always seems to have endless topics to talk about. He talked about the university, the work, and the famous mountains and rivers and customs he had traveled. All this made Xu Hui very novel, and unconsciously, temporarily put the story of falling out of love in the back of her mind.

As soon as eight o'clock arrived, all five members of the band appeared on the stage. A few tables of guests applauded their faces, and then the songs were re-enacted.

The male singer of the lead singer is not tall, a little chubby, and has a very good timbre. The most rare thing is that each song has been slightly changed to become more in line with his vocal characteristics.

Yu Shan and Xu Hui chatted energetically, and unconsciously talked about the issue of first love.

Xu Hui asked Yu Shan: "Brother Yu, what is your first love like?" ”

"Blind, impulsive, and unconcerned about the consequences, in the end, both lose." Yu Shan's words are concise and to the point.

"Finally broke up?"

"yes, isn't that what everyone is? Sometimes first love is not that you fall in love with someone, but that you fall in love with the feeling of being in love. Many times you don't even think about whether the other person's personality is a good fit for you. ”

Xu Hui nodded, feeling that Yu Shan's words were very philosophical. How could she not? If it weren't for her insistence, the relationship between her and Wang Tao would have ended two years ago.

"How did you live after the breakup?"

"I thought about it for a month, and then I did everything I wanted to do that I never did."

"For example?"

"For example, quit a job that you have long been bored with and take a trip that you can just go; Another example is to learn an instrument that I always want to learn, but I never have time to learn it. ”

The ease in Yu Shan's words made Xu Hui yearn for it, and his words stirred Xu Hui's heart. "A walk-and-go trip...... It's so good, I hope I can be so willful again in the future. By the way, Brother Yu, what instrument did you learn? ”

"Guitar."

Xu Hui smiled and asked, "Have you learned?" ”

Yu Shan raised his eyebrows: "You wait." He stood up and walked to the small stage. At this time, the lead singer of the band had just finished singing "No Place for Shame" and was drinking water to adjust.

He used to exchange a few words with the lead singer, then borrowed a guitar on his shoulder, sat on the lead singer's high stool, and said into the microphone: "This song is for a gentle and kind girl, I hope she can be her true self again." ”

After plucking the guitar strings and trying the sound, the lead singer thoughtfully took another microphone rack and lowered the alignment of the guitar. Yu Shan made an OK gesture to the lead singer and gently played the prelude.

After a short prelude, he began to sing.

"The brightest star in the night sky~ Can you hear clearly~ The person who looks up~ The loneliness in the bottom of my heart~ and sighs."

"Oh, the brightest star in the night sky~Can you remember~ the figure that once walked with me~ disappeared into the wind~."

In just two sentences, the guests below shifted their attention to the small stage; The lead singer standing on the side glanced at several band members, and then looked at Yu Shan's gaze differently.

In all fairness, Yu Shan's voice is also medium to high, and at most he is a wheat bully in KTV. Sensei said that he was compared with professional singers, but he couldn't compare with a few bar singers in front of him.

But I can't stand the song "Escape Plan", whether it is the song or the lyrics, it is a classic among the classics.

At the end of section A, Yu Shan enters the chorus.

"I pray to have a transparent heart~ and tearful eyes, to give me the courage to believe again~ oh beyond the lie~ to hug you. Whenever I can't find the meaning of existence~ Whenever I get lost in the night, oh ~ The brightest star in the night sky ~ Please guide ~ I am close to you ~"

In the booth, Xu Hui held his cheeks with his hands and stared at Yu Shan, who was playing and singing on the small stage. The spotlight on the top of the small stage hit Yu Shan, making the white shirt dazzling, like the sunshine in spring.

Singing about youth and dreams, with youthful confidence and momentum, this song almost immediately entered Xu Hui's heart, and the surging that had just been stimulated by Yu Shan's free and easy words had not subsided, and it was rising again at this moment.

Although the rest of the bar guests did not have Xu Hui's feelings, they also experienced the tranquility and romance in the song. No one exchanged ears with each other, and no one raised their glasses frequently, everyone stared at the small stage as if they were listening to a concert.

The four-minute song soon reached its final stage.

"The brightest star in the night sky~Can you hear clearly~The person who looks up~The loneliness in my heart~And sigh~"

After singing the last sentence, Yu Shan put away the guitar, the audience was silent, and he said to the microphone: "I don't sing well, everyone forgive me." After that, he got up and walked back.

Halfway through him, the belated applause was sporadic at first, followed by a series of sounds. Several young men and women who had lost their hearts also whistled one after another, and after a while, the commotion continued one after another.

Yu Shan smiled and beckoned to everyone and returned to his seat. He took a big sip of his drink and said, "I haven't sung for a long time, and my voice is a little tight." ”

Xu Hui looked at Yu Shan with sparkling eyes, and said with some admiration: "It's so good to sing...... Whose song is this? ”

"Uh......" Yu Shan froze for a moment, and secretly said in his heart that it was broken, and he was a little carried away with a drink. When I first played the guitar, I pondered a song with a master. ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard someone behind me: "Dude, you wrote this song?" Terrible! ”

Yu Shan turned his head to look, only to see that the lead singer and a man in his thirties in sportswear stood behind him at some point. It was a man in sportswear who spoke, and when he saw Yu Shan turn around, the man hurriedly introduced himself: "My name is Feng Zheng, the owner of this bar." ”

Yu Shan got up and took the initiative to shake hands with him: "I'm glad to be there." ”

Boss Feng was very angry, snapped his fingers, pointed to the table at the waiter and said, "Remember, this table is free of charge." Two more cocktails. ”

"That's embarrassing."

Feng Zheng waved his hand: "You're welcome, I don't have a lot of money, I can afford to pay for a free order." I haven't asked ...... yet."

"Oh, Yu Shan, Yu who has few remains, Yu of cedar trees."

Feng Zheng looked at Yu Shan's face and said, "It seems that I have to be older than you, so I will call you brother." ”

Yu Shan hurriedly saluted first: "Brother Feng." ”

"Sit down," Feng Zheng said this and sat down with the lead singer: "What does my brother do?" ”

"Dump some mobile phones and make a little money."

As soon as Yu Shan's words came out, Feng Zheng frowned. Smacked his lips and said, "I have a reluctant invitation, I wonder if my brother is interested in coming to me to sing?" ”

As soon as Feng Zheng said it, don't say it, Yu Shan was really moved. In his generation, he has never caught up with good things. His parents experienced going to the mountains and going to the countryside, and regarded not going to college as a lifelong regret, so they forced him to study hard since he was a child. What interests, what hobbies, as long as they are not related to the grades, they will all be forced to give up; Liberal arts and sciences choose to see which one can score and be admitted to university, not to see which one is better; The choice of major depends on which employment makes more money, not what you want to do.

I finally got to the college entrance examination, just in time for the expansion of enrollment, I thought it was a good thing, but I didn't find out that it was at all the case until I graduated. The previous senior brother stayed in Liangang and just joined the work, and his salary was more than 4,000, and as soon as Yu Shan and the others graduated, it was directly reduced to 2,006. From the beginning stage, he was left several levels behind by the previous senior brother.

After work, while doing a job I don't like, I make money and plan to save money to buy a house. When I looked up, I found that before I knew it, the house price had reached an unattainable level. You don't have to think about the full amount, and it's good to be able to pay a down payment. So he became a house slave, and then he became a car slave, if it wasn't for Yu Shan's early awakening, maybe he would have become a child slave now.

Thirty years have passed in a flash, and Yu Shan feels that he is in a daze, and all his choices are made in ignorance. No one paid attention to what he wanted to do, and no one asked him what kind of life he wanted to live. He woke up relatively early, quit his job, traveled the world with a backpack, and happily returned to himself. It was also during his trip that he met his current wife Zhao Xiaomeng and found the other half who matched him.

Nowadays, he is a primary school physical education teacher and an Olympiad teacher, and the store collects rent, writes some essays when he has nothing to do, takes his daughter-in-law to the bar to listen to songs at night, and always chooses to travel far away during the holidays. Life is delicious, and the only regret is that he finally practiced the guitar, but he suffered from uselessness. In addition to playing a few songs for Zhao Xiaomeng, it is rare to have other audiences. For a while, Yu Shan was extremely bored, and Yu Shan even discussed with his daughter-in-law that he would sing "Happy Breakup" from table to table in a Western restaurant with a guitar on his back, and sing "Little Three" without giving money, and he would definitely make a fortune in one night.

Later, it didn't happen, because Zhao Xiaomeng was afraid that Yu Shan would be beaten into a human shape.

Feng Zheng's request is simply a good thing that can be met but not sought by him. He pondered it carefully, but still excused himself and said, "Brother Feng, it's not that I'm hypocritical, my time here is indeed limited. You see if this will work, the resident singer will be exempted, I will occasionally come over and sing two voices, you just don't charge me money. ”

Feng Zheng is also a cheerful person, and patted his thigh: "Okay, don't say that you don't charge money for singing, you will always be free of charge, so it's decided." ”
