Soon, news about the famous singer Lin Fan's scandal, fake singing, and insults to fans hit the trending topics, the young man on stage was almost drowned out by the fans' jeers. Under the protection of bodyguards, he barely managed to withdraw from the agitated crowd, with buttons ripped off his clothes and shoes during the process, looking like a drenched chicken.

In an interview, the man shouted at the camera:

"How much did I spend just to grab a concert ticket? And you fooled us with fake singing in the end."

"Damn it! Is this how you treat us? Refund!!"

The staff at the scene were like ants on a hot pan, trying to soothe the agitated fans while arranging for them to leave through the evacuation passage.

Under the shadows of the park's trees, more and more angry figures appeared. The end of this emergency evacuation passage was a corner behind the left side of the stage, a place usually not visited.

Tang Xin wondered if it was her imagination, but it seemed like more people were gathering here since a moment ago?

From the initial two or three silhouettes to scattered dozens, and now, the crowd was so dense one couldn't see the end.

Did something happen on the stage?

"Hey, there's still a girl performing here; I didn't notice her earlier."

"Is she playing the bass?"

"What's wrong with her? Her eyes are red, just cried? Looks a bit pitiful..."

"Maybe she broke up or got cheated by someone."

Soon, a large group of people stopped in front of Tang Xin, men and women, young and old, each wearing different clothes, casting various glances at her, some even started recording with their cameras.

The more people there were, the more Tang Xin began to feel nervous, self-doubt started whispering in her ear, and she began to worry if her actions were inappropriate, if she sang the wrong lyrics, or looked unattractive...

Soon, she began singing off-key, and her bass notes started to go wrong.

"Off-key, hahaha? She looks so tense."

"Alas, the singing skill is still too weak, such a pity, even the playing is just barely passable."

"Let's disperse; it's too disappointing tonight."

The crowd ahead slowly dissipated, visibly shrinking in size, leaving Tang Xin looking crestfallen, gazing mournfully at the tips of her white sneakers.

At that moment, she vaguely saw a figure in the crowd jumping tirelessly, raising two glow sticks high into the sky!

The glow sticks bore her name's English initials — TX.

The figure with golden long hair bounced repeatedly to catch her attention, though inconspicuous among the flowing crowd, like a twinkling star drawing her gaze irresistibly.

In this instant, her eyes started to shimmer, and the tiny sparks came to life, reaching toward the world beyond the frame. The whole world abruptly brightened, bursting with beautiful colors!

"Little Blue Bird! Go on, you can sing well!" Xu Xiaoyou shouted with her hands cupped like a megaphone.

"Just sing for yourself! It's okay if it's not perfect, this concert is for you from me!"

"I won't let you become a new star for everyone to see, I'll make all the stars shine just for you alone!"

"Tonight, you're the only star on this stage!"

The girl's voice pierced through the wind and snow, directly touching Tang Xin's heart.

A faint bitterness rose to her nose tip, her heart beating faster as she gathered courage, resonating with an almost yelling response deep inside. Tang Xin reached her fingers to the strings: "How do I transcend time, how do I embrace you?"

This feeling is just like that night in the room; all anxiety and insecurity vanished, leaving only the urge to sing wholeheartedly, without fear of strange glances.

"Outside the window is vast white; longing turns into snow flakes~"

As if her world narrowed down to just herself and the girl, only her cheers resonating. The people standing by became irrelevant background, blurred and unseen, nor did she want to see them.

"Those pasts trapped in the ice and snow, self-hypnotize, forget all the words of self-burial~"

She just wanted to see the girl clearly, only wanted to sing for her, just like that night.

Tang Xin's youthful face blushed under the street lamp, as she plucked the strings, her singing gradually turned pleasant and melodious:

"The galaxy falls into my eyes, and my eyes hold only you~"

The crowd in the park slowly immersed themselves in the girl's voice, the beautiful melody seeming to transcend time and space, reaching into the depths of their hearts.

The pure and prolonged singing was like gentle hands, soothing the agitation and dissatisfaction inside them tonight, releasing the emotions piled up from the stage.

"Go for it!" someone started.

"Go for it!"

Soon, others echoed, and before long cheers resounded continuously, more passersby noticed this lively corner, stopping and joining the group cheering for the girl.

Tang Xin gradually got into the swing of things, her moves no longer felt stiff like before, she boldly showcased herself, expressing all past grievances through her singing.

The clear and melodious song echoed in the park's sky for a long while, flowing slowly in this tranquil moment, until the sky darkened and three Yaoxing stars completely sank.

"You're my starry sky, dazzling because of you, sparkling because of you~"

"I only want you in my world, only want to be beside you."

As the last note fell, the audience immersed in the girl's voice came to their senses, the park filled with enthusiastic applause.

Tang Xin still felt somewhat unreal, finding everyone cheering for her, she genuinely bowed slightly to everyone:

"Thank you!"

"Thank you for liking it, thank you for staying to hear me sing to the end!"

Another round of enthusiastic applause, Tang Xin looked up, but didn't find the figure she was hoping for among the crowd, a touch of disappointment flashed across her eyes.

...

At the park exit, people came and went, Xu Xiaoyou passed through them, gently warming her numb hands with breath, her gaze on the fast-moving information curtain.

As she expected, Tang Xin's performance at the park had been recorded and shared on the Note Platform, garnering countless likes and climbing to the hot search, currently second to "Lin Fan's concert scandal."

Just needed to create contrast, ruin the concert of that so-called traffic star Lin Fan, the utterly disappointed people would naturally notice the girl shining faintly in the corner.

She had coldly ignored Tang Xin for a day, reluctant to think about the psychological journey the girl went through before the performance, guessing the girl might be quite angry now. After all, she did deceive her.

She would talk more after going back.

Just as Xu Xiaoyou was about to leave, someone suddenly stopped her from behind.

"Xu Xiaoyou!"

Xu Xiaoyou's mouth twitched slightly, rapidly thinking about how to explain to Tang Xin, to soothe the hurt feelings, when a call came from behind.

As she turned, the girl threw herself into her arms, her youthful face showing a happy smile, tightly holding her shoulders, burying her face in as if afraid she would disappear if not careful.

"Eh?"

In winter, the girl's body emitted warm heat, her neck and face still bearing glistening sweat, the warmth and softness dazed Xu Xiaoyou, instinctively hugging the girl before her.

It seemed a long time since anyone hugged her like this.

With a calm gaze, Xu Xiaoyou asked: "Aren't you mad at me?"

It seemed the girl's heart was beating fast.

"Why would I be mad? Okay, I was really mad at first, but now I'm super, super, super happy, it still feels like dreaming, just now so many people clapped for me."

"This is the first time I've been recognized by so many people."

"Thank you, You, I'm really happy."

"I loved the concert you held for me."
