Chapter 333 Brother, I miss my mother
At this moment, there was a large circle of people in the back holding up cheering signs, all of which read "Zheng Xiuheng's Waiting for Sunrise", "Wait", and "Come on". It gave people the feeling that they were Zheng Xiuheng's fan club, so the cute Crystal Princess was scared, but the next moment, her big eyes immediately turned into a smiling look.
Zheng Xiuheng, who was on the stage with Yoo Jae-suk, was surprised by this situation. The same thing happened to Yoo Jae-suk. He looked carefully at the audience who were shouting Zheng Xiuheng's name, and it seemed that there were more than half of them.
"It turns out that so many people came here for this kid!" Only then did Liu Zaishi understand why there were so many spectators in such a remote place at this time in the afternoon.
Zheng Xiuheng was a little surprised. Looking at those cheering boards and the excited audience, in just a moment, Zheng Xiuheng seemed to understand why some people like to be stars and why artists hope to have countless fans who like them.
Of course, the reasons may vary slightly from person to person, but this was the first time that Zheng Xiuheng understood a little bit about what it felt like to be a star standing on the stage and looking down. However, Zheng Xiuheng did not think of himself as a star. After all, this was just a special music festival.
"Ah, I always thought that everyone came here for us. I never expected it, never imagined that I am so sad at the moment. Please allow me to be silent for three seconds!" Liu Jae-seok expressed his feelings with a sad face, and the audience below was amused.
Zheng Xiuheng was a little touched, waved to the audience, and walked to the right side of the stage to sit down in front of the electronic piano. In this situation, Zheng Xiuheng really didn't know what to say. If he really wanted to say something, it would probably be just a thank you.
The audience was still very excited, but they didn't scream like the girls. Just before Yoo Jae-seok started singing, there were uniform shouts from the audience.
"Xiu Heng DJ, we're waiting for you!"
"Xiu Heng DJ, we're waiting for you!"
"Xiu Heng DJ, we're waiting for you!"
Zheng Xiuheng opened his mouth slightly, looking at those young people, and even some middle-aged men and women who were obviously over 30 years old in the crowd, looking at him sincerely, without begging in their eyes, and without the fanaticism of fans looking at their idols. In addition to a little excitement, that look was more of a message, telling Zheng Xiuheng that they would wait for him to return to the show as a DJ, because this was an agreement between the two parties.
“Boom!”
Zheng Xiuheng lightly pressed the piano keys with his right hand, and the sound was very crisp. Seeing that the audience was looking at him, Zheng Xiuheng smiled and stretched out his right hand, curled four fingers in the air, and only stretched out the little finger, and then shook it. Then he called to Liu Zaishi who was not far away : "Zaishi brother, it's time to start, be quiet, be serious, concentrate, and use your feelings. This is the stage for you to sing for the person in your heart!"
Yoo Jae-seok understood Zheng Xiuheng's action, which was a response to the audience, saying that he would abide by the agreement. Just when Yoo Jae-seok was thinking about whether to chat with Zheng Xiuheng for a while, Zheng Xiuheng looked at him sincerely.
Hearing Zheng Xiuheng's words, Liu Zaishi let go of all the extra thoughts and professional habits of a variety show host. He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and sorted himself out for three seconds. He nodded to Zheng Xiuheng before turning to face the stage and looking at the audience below. They didn't seem to be paying attention to themselves. He took another deep breath and closed his eyes. Perhaps this was the only way to let go of his nervousness.
Because this song also has a special meaning to Yoo Jae Suk.
Zheng Xiuheng cast his gaze forward, glanced at his loyal listeners, then cast his gaze towards his sister in the front row who was waving excitedly at him. With a faint smile on his lips, Zheng Xiuheng blinked at her, then gently pressed the piano keys.
Soft music with a little bit of warmth sounded. It was not as complicated as the previous performances, nor did it have that kind of cheerful atmosphere. Instead, it had a light warmth and tenderness.
Liu Zaishi sang the first note in a nervous state, and the attention of the audience below the stage also changed at this moment.
"You were the first one I met.
You cried as soon as you saw me..."
Yoo Jae Suk's voice was trembling a little, he was indeed uncontrollably nervous. Without any extra accompaniment, with just the piano sound, even the slightest breathing in Yoo Jae Suk's singing was very clear, but this did not affect the atmosphere too much, instead it made people start to focus.
"It's because of happiness
Or is it sadness?
I can't remember
There's nothing for you
Just been accepting
However, at that time
I don't know how to thank
Living in ignorance till now
Mom, even if I only call you this name
Why does my heart hurt so much?
For giving all
For you who regret not being able to give more
What should I address?
Mom, my mother
Why are you crying so much?
The most precious
You are more beautiful than anyone else
It's mine, my mother..."
Although nervousness is an emotion that everyone has, most people can overcome it. Yoo Jae-seok also overcame his nervousness. After he shouted "Oh my God" in the chorus, emotion instantly permeated his singing.
Maybe he thought of his cleaning mother, or maybe he thought of his mother who worked very hard and took care of him during his unknown period, or maybe he really wanted to sing for that person, so he put all his heart into it. Because this was the first time, after becoming famous, he really wanted to give something to his mother on TV, instead of just saying "I love you" to the camera.
Zheng Xiujing, who was sitting below the stage, was excited and happy because of the arrival of her brother's listeners and fans, but her excitement and happiness disappeared in an instant. This cute little girl suddenly bit her lower lip, her eyes became a little red, and tears flashed in her eyes, as she just looked at her brother.
At this moment, Krystal Jung also... missed her mother.
The audience who came because of Zheng Xiuheng also forgot their purpose at this moment. Some aunties who came here to kill time and join in the fun were rubbing their eyes, and seemed to be moved by Yoo Jae Suk's singing.
Zheng Xiuheng played the piano with his head down, and Liu Zaishi sang with his eyes closed. Both of them were very serious and both of them were very involved.
Perhaps it is difficult to define what kind of music is good music and what kind of performance is good performance, because everyone has different orientations.
But if you have to give an answer, it’s that music full of emotion and performances full of emotion are the best.
This is also the reason why Zheng Xiuheng’s singing skills, although not very impressive, have attracted public attention with several of his performances.
Yoo Jae Suk's singing did not end, but he became more and more engaged. His voice would occasionally choke and pause, but he continued singing.
"Your past hard work
I understand now
You must have cried a lot because of me.
Why was it so?
How many times
I can't remember
Please don't be too touched by this small gift
Haven't you given me the whole world?
Okay, I'll be fine.
Mom, even if I only call you this name
Why does my heart hurt so much?
For giving all
For you who regret not being able to give more
What should I address?
Mom, my mother
Why are you crying so much?
The most precious
You are more beautiful than anyone else
It's mine, my mother..."
The song ended after Yoo Jae Suk choked up and called out "Mom", opened his eyes and shed tears.
The audience fell into silence at this moment, or it would be better to say sadness. Many emotional audience members had red eyes, and a few fragile and emotionally sensitive ones even shed tears.
Zheng Xiuheng exhaled deeply, his expression somewhat satisfied, but also a little nostalgic. In fact, Zheng Xiuheng is not the kind of shy or nervous person, on the contrary, he likes to perform and share his music, so even if it is a self-composed song, he will play it in the restaurant where he works.
It has been a long time since I played in front of so many people. Zheng Xiuheng felt satisfied because of this. At the same time, because of Liu Zaishi's singing, he also missed his lovely mother...
Looking up, Zheng Xiuheng was slightly startled, then immediately stood up and walked towards the front of the stage.
At this time, Zheng Xiuheng's actions were very eye-catching. Liu Zaishi looked at the man walking by, wiped his eyes with his hand, looked in the direction Zheng Xiuheng was walking, and saw Zheng Xiujing.
"call!"
“Woo woo!”
Krystal Jung gritted her teeth, sniffed her nose, and tears kept falling. Her sad little face made people feel heartbroken. Zheng Da Bin, with red eyes, didn't know how to comfort her and just patted her on the back.
“Bang!”
Zheng Xiuheng jumped off the stage gently. Zheng Xiujing looked at her brother who was walking towards her and couldn't help crying: "Brother!"
Zheng Xiuheng squatted down and hugged his sister who stretched out her arms, then turned and walked past the camera. Looking at Xiujing crying, Zheng Xiuheng felt very, very heartbroken and suddenly felt a little regretful. Perhaps he shouldn't have brought her to the scene today.
"Brother, I miss my mother!"
Krystal Jung lay on her brother's shoulder, crying and speaking in a sad voice. At this time, the sister who usually behaved like a little adult looked like a child.
Hearing this, Zheng Xiuheng's heart trembled, and he hugged his sister tightly in his arms, feeling uncontrollably guilty and sorry in his heart. Although some things can be let go, the facts can never be forgotten.
Under the gaze of others, Zheng Xiuheng disappeared in front of the stage. It was not until this moment that the audience reacted and burst into warm applause.
However, Yoo Jae-suk, who was left alone on the stage, did not feel any joy. Instead, he felt inexplicably complicated. For the first time, he really wanted to leave early and go home so that he could see his mother as soon as possible.
