"I got to find a way out... Maybe there"s a way out..." he sang.

His action threw the band into disorder and elicited surprised gasps and protests from the members and the audience.
"Hmm, what happened?" Tang Lan exchanged glances with her friends.
Up there stood a man as steadfast as a mountain despite the insults and questions tossed at him.
His eyes were closed and brows furrowed, appearing like he was in his own world. He looked like he was amidst making a very important decision. No one else knew, but the crazy guy inside the distressed exterior was fighting against the will of the Original, not the least bit resigned to being made into an unshakable love fool in front of everybody.
"Stupid. You know in your heart that all your previous efforts garnered no response and did not move her heart at all. d.a.m.n. You don"t even know what wrong you"ve done to make her suddenly broke up with you. Stop. I"ll take over and complete your wish."
Jiang Li s.h.i.+vered. His soul seemed to hear an unwilling young man crying his heart out of grief. Why was his love not heard out? Why did she break up with him? Why was she leaving him alone?
"F*ck. He Chen, you"re insane... But I love it. HAHAHAHA, THIS IS A COMPEt.i.tION!"
Facing the resistance head-on, Jiang Li made use of the Original"s musical talent. Instead of continuing the previous song, he signaled the rest to stop and let him do the rest.
He forced a smile on his face even though the Original seemingly wanted him to cry and beg. But d.a.m.n, Jiang Li rebelled and sang an a Capella. The remnant"s will wanted him to sing a love song. d.a.m.n him, he would comply, but not with a courts.h.i.+p one!
"Goodbye... to the love we used to have..."
"Goodbye to the promises that will no longer see the light of the day."
"If you"re now in love with somebody else."
"Don"t worry about me. I"ll eventually get used to it."
"Just yesterday, we are together. Now, I"ve become a memory of yours."
"From now on, I would have to pray that you are happy every day."
While everyone marveled at this tune that they had never heard before and at the very soul-stirring emotions the singer had put into it, the man himself was almost going crazy from suppressing the disgust, cringe, and the d.a.m.nable remnant"s will.
Down below, Tang Lan, at a lost, digested the meaning of his song, and momentarily felt weird in her heart.
"He"s finally giving up?" She took deep breaths multiple times.
Tang Lan retreated from the odd stares from the crowd and subdued the inner voice telling her that if she wouldn"t face him now, she would regret it for a lifetime.
She heartlessly left, not caring if He Chen"s face showed deep melancholy, whether from singing the sad song or from seeing her leaving. Anyway, the message had been received by her. There was nothing else to see here.
Or so she thought.
If she only stayed for a few more seconds, she would see Jiang Li"s gaze turning sarcastic.
"He Chen wishes for this woman not to ever forget him? Bullsh*t! If heartfelt courts.h.i.+p won"t work, easy! Be the person opposite of what he used to be. More desirable and brilliant! Unreachable and wanted by many girls!"
"MAKE HER REGRET! MAKE HER SEE THAT YOU LOVE YOURSELF NOW, MORE THAN HER!"
After telling himself these, he ended the song. He took a few seconds to calm down. Behind him, his friends called his name a couple of times. Jiang Li glanced over his shoulder and took in their concern faces. The boys left their posts and group-hugged him. It was amazing how they stood by his side despite being shamed and made to look like fools earlier before so many people.
He Chen, you"re stupid for not cheris.h.i.+ng these people more, he thought as he parted with them.
He looked at the crowd. Ignoring the different kinds of gazes he received, Jiang Li took one step forward and held the mic.
Suddenly, a different aura came from him. It was the aura of someone who had awed the business world and made it to the cover of so many magazines.
"Thank you, everyone, for listening to our music. Today"s songs are sung, not for a single individual, but for everyone."
People who knew the inside out of He Chen"s story did not believe him and even laughed at him. But the man disregarded them and with a very wide smile put on, he continued,
"From today onwards, I and my wonderful friends will be forming a band and post our works and covers on Youtube! If today"s performance made you even the littlest bit amazed, please consider visiting our page later. Haha, drop by and perhaps leave a message or hit the like b.u.t.ton there, or both. That"s all. Thank you!"
