Rebirth of Bloody Romance

Chapter 357 New Year’s Day Party

The light was shining on the podium in the classroom, illuminating Xie Min's figure. She was smiling, her eyes were gentle as water, and she was quietly gazing at the energetic faces in front of her.

Xie Min raised her head slightly and cleared her throat, as if making final preparations for the upcoming singing performance. Then, she opened her red lips and sang the well-known and widely circulated "Jasmine Flower" like a nightingale singing for the first time.

"What a beautiful jasmine flower!

What a beautiful jasmine flower.

The branches are full of fragrance and beauty,

It’s fragrant and white, and everyone praises it…”

Xie Min's voice is like a gentle spring breeze, warm and generous. Her true voice in the middle range is like a gurgling stream, natural and smooth. When she sings the high notes, she skillfully uses falsetto, like a dancing butterfly, light and graceful. However, perhaps because her skills have not yet reached perfection, this graceful voice seems a little less round.

However, this did not affect her singing charm at all. As soon as Xie Min sang the first note, the students in the audience couldn't help but applaud and cheered.

The classroom, which was originally a little noisy, suddenly became silent, and all the students' attention was firmly attracted by Xie Min's moving singing.

At this moment, time seemed to have frozen, and the whole world seemed to be left with only Xie Min's beautiful singing voice and the students' intoxicated expressions.

Zhong Yuemin listened attentively, and his keen ears quickly caught the unique charm of Xie Min's voice. The sound was like a clear spring flowing through, refreshing the heart.

After careful analysis, Zhong Yuemin discovered that the real voice in Xie Min's middle voice accounts for a large proportion. This characteristic gives her singing a warm and generous texture, just like the warm sun in winter, which can easily penetrate the defenses of people's hearts.

When the melody climbed to the high pitch, Xie Min showed her superb skills. She skillfully blended falsetto into it, like a wisp of smoke rising, making the high pitch that might have seemed sharp become gentle and melodious.

However, despite this, some minor flaws can still be detected in some transitions - the processing in those places is a little stiff and not smooth enough. But it is these small imperfections that make the audience feel more deeply the sincere emotions that Xie Min puts into singing.

As the last note slowly fell, the whole classroom fell into a brief silence, which was then broken by the thunderous cheers and applause of the students. They were obviously not satisfied with Xie Min's singing, and they shouted at the top of their lungs: "One more song! One more song!" The shouts that came one after another resounded through the sky, deafening.

At this time, the host, with a friendly smile on her face, raised her hands to signal everyone to be quiet. When the noise gradually died down, she spoke, "Dear students, we can't be so greedy! Teacher Xie Min has given us such a wonderful performance, we should also leave some opportunities for other teachers to show off, don't you think? Otherwise, how about we invite other teachers to show off their skills first?"

The host's words were like a bucket of cold water poured on a raging fire. Although the students were unwilling, they still nodded in agreement very sensibly.

Then, there was another round of warm applause in the classroom. This applause was for the other teachers who were about to take the stage, and was also a sincere praise for Xie Min's outstanding performance.

Xie Min smiled and nodded slightly to thank the audience.

Afterwards, teachers took to the podium one after another and sang popular and widely circulated classic songs. Some teachers had loud and powerful voices, while others had sweet and tender voices.......

When Teacher Yang Li walked onto the stage with steady steps, the noisy atmosphere in the audience suddenly quieted down. Zhong Yuemin, who was sitting in the front row, couldn't help but widen his eyes with astonishment.

Because in Zhong Yuemin's impression, this old man who always has a stern face and is serious is the epitome of seriousness and rigidity.

However, at this moment, he was actually going to sing a song that was very different from his image - Teresa Teng's "Sweet Honey"!

As the melodious music slowly sounded, Teacher Yang Li took a deep breath and then sang softly. "Sweet honey,

You smile sweetly,

It’s like flowers blooming in the spring breeze….”

His slightly deep and slightly vicissitudes voice, although not as mellow and graceful as that of professional singers, is surprisingly full of a unique charm. Every line of lyrics sung by him seems to carry the precipitation of years and the deep narration of feelings, which makes people intoxicated.

The students in the audience were a little surprised at first, but they were soon deeply moved by Teacher Yang Li's singing. For a moment, warm applause surged like a tide, mixed with excited cheers, one after another, resounding throughout the classroom.

Even Zhong Yuemin couldn't help but applaud, with an unconcealable admiration in his eyes. He really didn't expect that this seemingly dull and boring old man actually had such a delicate and gentle emotional world hidden deep in his heart.

The next two young and beautiful female teachers came on stage to perform. Perhaps influenced by Teacher Yang Li, they all chose Teresa Teng's songs as their performance repertoire.

However, although these two female teachers have sweet voices, they cannot compare with Teacher Yang Li in terms of grasping the emotions of the songs or stage performance.

Finally, it was Zhong Yuemin's turn. He was about to go on stage when suddenly a girl shouted, "Teacher Zhong, I heard that you sang "My Deskmate" at the welcome party. Is that true?"

Zhong Yuemin was slightly stunned. Has he sung this song before? His memory was a little fuzzy, but looking at the girl's expectant eyes, he nodded subconsciously. "I think I have sung it before!"

"Classmates, how about letting Teacher Zhong sing "You, My Deskmate"? " the girl suggested.

The scene suddenly became lively and students expressed their agreement one after another.

"Wow! Is this song sung by Teacher Zhong?"

"Why haven't I ever heard you say that?"

"You haven't heard much." The students talked about it in a buzz, their faces full of anticipation.

"Teacher Zhong, let's sing 'You, My Deskmate'!" The students were very enthusiastic and started to make a noise.

Zhong Yuemin looked at everyone's enthusiasm and felt a warm current in his heart. He smiled and nodded. "Okay then! I'm happy today and will satisfy everyone's request."

The students immediately burst into warm applause and cheers. Zhong Yuemin coughed twice, cleared his throat, and began to sing affectionately:

"Will you remember tomorrow,

The diary you wrote yesterday,

Will you still be thinking about me tomorrow?

You who used to love crying the most....”

Zhong Yuemin's voice was melodious and magnetic, as if it carried a magical power, and everyone seemed to see the good times they had spent with their deskmate.

As Zhong Yuemin sang, the atmosphere gradually reached a climax. The students clapped their hands to the rhythm, sang along softly, and some were even moved to tears.

When Zhong Yuemin finished singing the last sentence, the audience burst into thunderous applause and cheers.

"Thank you everyone!" After Zhong Yuemin finished singing, he bowed deeply to the audience and prepared to turn around and walk off the stage.

However, the audience in the audience seemed to be still immersed in the song just now, unable to extricate themselves.

"One more song, one more song!" Shouts rang out one after another, and everyone burst into amazing enthusiasm.

Zhong Yuemin looked at the expectant faces in the audience, feeling touched and helpless. He really couldn't think of what to sing next, so he smiled bitterly and said to everyone, "Can I sing another song when I remember?"

But the students obviously did not intend to give up. Shouts of "One more song, one more song!" came one after another, and many people started knocking on the table with enamel pots. The sounds of bang, bang, bang, bang soon merged into a consistent rhythm.

Dong, dong, dong, dong - the knocking sound of the enamel pot became louder and louder, as if accompanying Zhong Yuemin, and as if urging him to continue singing.

Zhong Yuemin stood on the stage, took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and tried hard to recall those once familiar melodies.

At this moment, a clear melody suddenly sounded in Zhong Yuemin's mind. He opened his eyes and a confident smile appeared on his face. "Okay, then I'll sing another song for everyone."

The students immediately quieted down and stared closely at Zhong Yuemin on the stage, looking forward to his next wonderful performance.

Faced with the students' overwhelming enthusiasm, Zhong Yuemin was not in a hurry to start his next song. He stood there, looking deeply at every young face, his heart full of emotion.

Zhong Yuemin said affectionately, "Senior students, you will graduate in half a year and embark on a new journey in life. Freshmen, sophomores, and juniors will also face this important moment one after another. I hope that no matter where you go or what difficulties you encounter, you can always keep a pure heart, forge ahead bravely, and pursue your dreams."

At this point, Zhong Yuemin paused, and then continued, "Next, I want to sing a song for everyone, "Chasing Dreams with a Childlike Heart". This song is for you and for myself. I hope that we can all stay true to our original aspirations and forge ahead in the days to come."

As the music started, Zhong Yuemin closed his eyes and sang the lyrics of the song affectionately:

"Where is the world full of flowers?

If it really exists, I will go.

I want to stand on the highest mountain there,

Don’t care if it’s a cliffhanger….”

Zhong Yuemin closed his eyes and devoted himself to the song, every word of the lyrics was full of power and emotion. His voice echoed in the multi-purpose hall, as if penetrating everyone's heart.

"Live hard, love hard, even if it means death.

Don't ask for anyone's satisfaction, just be true to yourself.

I never gave up on my ideals.

Even on the grey days....”

As the song deepened, the students' emotions were gradually aroused. They seemed to see themselves on the road to pursuing their dreams and felt the power of never giving up.

When Zhong Yuemin sang the line "Live hard, love hard, even if it means sacrificing your life; don't ask for anyone's satisfaction, as long as you are true to yourself", the students and teachers in the audience couldn't help crying.

Zhong Yuemin stood on the stage, singing "Chasing Dreams with a Pure Heart" with all his heart. His singing was affectionate and attentive, and every note seemed to carry his persistence and love for his dream. Even if his voice was broken, he did not flinch, but marched forward bravely and sang with all his strength, and this strength infected everyone present.

"What a great song!" someone couldn't help but exclaim.

"It sounds good!" More people began to agree.

Teachers and students who knew a little about vocal music sang along in the audience, trying to use their own voices to perform this powerful song with Zhong Yuemin.

However, they soon discovered that the song was quite difficult, the melody of the main verse was weird, the chorus was easily out of tune, and many people couldn't even hum it.

Despite this, the teachers and students did not give up. They challenged their own limits and tried to keep up with Zhong Yuemin's rhythm. Everyone felt that they must be better than Zhong Yuemin in singing.

However, no matter how hard they try, it seems difficult to reach Zhong Yuemin's level. The determination and perseverance revealed in his singing are difficult for them to imitate no matter what.

Some people began to sigh, "It's so hard to sing! Damn it, my voice breaks no matter how I sing!"

Zhong Yuemin sang to his heart's content on the stage, his voice sometimes high and passionate, sometimes low and gentle, interpreting the song to the fullest. He seemed to be telling everyone with his singing that although the road to pursuing dreams is full of hardships and challenges, as long as you keep a pure heart, you can move forward courageously and fearlessly.

"Keep running with the pride of a child

How can you see the sparkle of life if you don’t persist to the end?

It is better to burn out than to linger on

For the good in my heart

Don’t compromise until you get old...”

Zhong Yuemin tried hard to sing the high notes, but his falsetto sounded very weak, as if it would be blown away by the wind. If he didn't use falsetto, he couldn't reach that high note at all; but once he used falsetto, it was as if he was suppressed by an invisible force and couldn't shout out at all.

Finally, Zhong Yuemin used up all his strength and finished the whole song with difficulty, feeling like he was about to cry. When the last note fell, he exhaled heavily as if relieved, slowly opened his eyes, and looked at the silent audience in front of him.

“Fuck! What the hell is going on? Why are people looking at me like that? Are they annoyed that I just broke my voice? Even if that’s the case, you don’t have to stare at me like that!”

Thinking of this, Zhong Yuemin couldn't help but curse in his heart: "Fuck! Could it be that my attempt to show off failed and I was disliked instead? But even if that person came to sing this song himself, I'm afraid it would be difficult to avoid a car accident! And the fact that I can sing like this is already pretty good, isn't it?"

Just like that, Zhong Yuemin stood on the stage holding the microphone. Time seemed to stand still for several seconds.

However, at this moment, the originally silent audience suddenly burst into thunderous applause. The teachers and students were so excited that tears welled up in their eyes, and some even stood up and clapped and cheered desperately.

It turns out that this song deeply touched the softest corner of their hearts, singing out the emotions that they have always wanted to express but have no way to express.

"It is better to burn out than to linger on!" This line of lyrics is like a thunder, exploding in everyone's heart. It is not just a simple word, but also a cry from the depths of the soul, an unyielding pursuit and persistence of life and dreams.

At this moment, everyone in the audience felt an unprecedented power - the power of belief to move forward courageously, never retreat, and never give up.

This kind of power instantly made the blood of the teachers and students present boil, and their fighting spirit was also ignited. Because on the road of life, what we need is such a strong spiritual power that can support us to keep moving forward and overcome all difficulties and obstacles!
