Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When Meng Fan began to sing another song, the audience had quieted down. Including those who had been laughing so hard they"d endured a spasm, who"d been cured by his singing. They had been completely absorbed by Meng Fan"s singing and lost all traces of the joy they had felt just now.
Meng Fan"s voice was very charming, and since he had been staring at Wu Tong the entire time, the affection had unintentionally "triggered" the infectiousness of his vocal appeal on the audience. Soon, some people in the live audience found their vision beginning to blur, completely falling for Meng Fan"s voice.
The live chat was also quieter than it had been. The comments still came, but the barrage was much thinner.
Even if they were opposite the screen, they could still feel the emotion in Meng Fan"s song.
"For the rest of our lives" was one of the hottest songs of the year. Based on the general consensus of popularity, it could only be rivaled by the brainwas.h.i.+ng G.o.d-tier "meow meow meow" song. The song had blown up from a short video platform, and after it became popular, the original singer also followed, along with several cover artists as well.
Among the many cover artists, there was no lack of affection. But there were very few that could genuinely sing with real affection. Meng Fan"s song had the effect of sound appeal +4, and his endless gaze at Wu Tong. In terms of affection alone, no one could control him! It really moved people!
Meng Fan"s kind of "moving" was as if a small deer suddenly crashed into your chest and ran away. Bang bang bang, it b.u.mped against your heart. Maybe it was because he had sung with affection and longing, specifically for love, so his voice contained a strong urge to be in love.
Of course, there were one thousand Hamlets in the eyes of one thousand people. There must have been several people who had read some other emotions from his singing and felt the emotions of their memories.
For some, it even had an eye-watering effect.
For example, after the first chorus, there were about a dozen people in tears in the audience, Some of whom must have felt the sadness in remembering that special person they had promised to spend their lives but ended up parting with, while there were others who felt the warmth and sweetness of holding the hand of that "person" sitting next to them. Most importantly, there were those who looked forward to rea.s.suring themselves there was no need to panic about the future, and they would meet someone who would redefine the meaning of "love"…
There were also many people with red eyes filled with tears in the audience, moved by Meng Fan"s singing.
If you don"t look, you"ll never know when you cross that line of emotions. Once you touch it, there would be an echo.
In the stream, there were even more people touched by his singing.
When Meng fan finished his song and a smile formed on his lips, many people in the audience as well as on the stream began to smile along as well. It wasn"t the sort of bellowing laughter nor stupid giggles that appeared before, but a sweet, genuine smile from the heart. There was no sound, but it was more lethal than the previous uproar.
"Life is full of greed and full of poison. Life is bitter on earth, but it"s sweet with you."
Meng Fan would never know how many people he"d touched with that sentence, let alone how many people had the urge to be in love after this sentence and the motivation to confess to the person in their heart.
There were actually a few of these in the audience.
A female college student sitting in the back row of the concert hall with tears streaming down her face had taken out her mobile phone and determinedly sent a confession to her long-time crush.
The senior, who had graduated and working also harbored feelings for the girl. He responded, "I don"t have a car or a house. You are naive, but I cannot be."
The girl responded quickly, "If you are poor, I will be your luggage, learning from you for the rest of my life. My dream in this lifetime is to hold your hand and face the world together."
Then, she got up and wiped her eyes, gratefully smiling at Meng Fan who was still on the stage. Hastily, she turned and left the concert hall. She was going to find him!
Dummy, I"m not naive, nor do I need a car or a house. I just need you!
Of course, there were people who were just simply fascinated by Meng Fan, both in the audience and among the online viewers. Since Meng Fan had lost quite some weight, several people could see his transformation from a chubby kid to a tall guy. Their first impression of him had changed from a horizontal vision into a vertical vision.
Wasn"t there a saying that fairness could hide a 100 girls" ugliness? For guys, height could make you three times more handsome too.
Although he hasn"t lost much weight so far from running, he had lost a lot of fat. His double chin was gone, and his face was noticeably slimmer. His cheekbones were starting to be more defined, and his features were starting to depict the positive features of the Meng family. With his added +5 charm, he had become quite attractive.
Otherwise, he wouldn"t have been able to attract his maid army, nor the prettiest girl Pao had brought to KTV that night.
Meng Fan"s affectionate singing didn"t just impress people, but also made them impulsive to fall in love with him.
Most of the audience on the scene couldn"t see who he had been staring at. No, accurately speaking, they had all thought that Meng Fan was staring at themselves. Especially those in the stream. To them, Meng Fan definitely had the buff of a halo with his +8 photogenic appeal.
The camera had been pointed directly at Meng Fan. Of course, the fickle netizens in the stream thought he had been affectionately staring at them.
"Meng boss! I like you!"
"Meng host! I love you!"
"I"m in love with the host!"
"My young girl"s heart!"
Once this song ended, a lot of confessions began to appear in the live comments, and among the audience as well.
A girl among the audience suddenly stood up and screamed loudly at Meng Fan, "Meng Fan, I love you!"
Closely followed by the screams of other girls and some guys as well.
It was necessarily a confession of love between a man and a woman, but a fan"s love for their idol. They were smitten!
The screams were finally able to yank Meng Fan out of his two-person world with Wu Tong. At this time, the stunned Wu Tong felt as if her soul had suddenly returned to her body. She bit her lip slightly and smiled sweetly at Meng Fan, eyes sparkling with joy.
Seeing this, Meng Fan clenched his fist discreetly, then bowed sincerely to the audience and the online viewers and stepped off the stage.
Although the first song was a disaster, he had redeemed himself during the second performance by the looks of the audience.
After stepping down, he ran into Su Qing Cen. Embarra.s.singly, he scratched his head, then asked uneasily, "I redeemed myself a little bit, right? I hope I didn"t ruin sister Bai"s concert."
"The concert is definitely ruined," Su Qing Cen teased. Then she sighed and spoke more sincerely, "But your song just now was really great. You look handsome when you"re serious, very charming as well."
