Chapter 86. The stars in the skyAs soon as the words "Go" appeared on the monitor, Ren started playing the guitar.
Although he was nervous, he was able to play the tune just right. The melody coming out of the guitar was really pleasing to listen and it soon changed the room"s atmosphere.
After the initial prelude, Lin Ru started singing the lyrics. Her voice was sweet and the with the excellent lyrics, it provided a sense of affection and tenderness.
As soon as Lin Ru sang the first line, the whole atmosphere in the studio completely changed. No one said anything as they quietly listened to the song.
Producer Ma was looking at Lin Ru with wide eyes and Writer Hu was greatly surprised, not only because of the song but also because of Ren"s guitar skills.
Only Wu Wei was watching Ren and Lin Ru with a meaningful smile. He was listening the song with a smile on his face.
Lin Ru also got comfortable in the middle of the song and her words came out more affectionately.
[Do you remember the time,
We used to meet each other everyday,
Watching the stars in the sky,
While holding our hands.]
The stars in the sky was originally a love song loved by the youth and although the song was still not like the version Ren had heard in his previous life, it was still able to create the same atmosphere.
[I missed the summer days,
When we used to sit together in the cla.s.s,
And spend the day together and the night,
Under the stars in the starry sky.]
With each verse, the song was coming to an end but the atmosphere in the studio was still the same.
Ren was also playing the guitar skillfully creating a sweet and gentle melody come out of it and with the final verse, Lin Ru finally sang the ending lines.
[I wish we can meet everyday,
Like we were when we were young,
And spend our days together and the night,
Under the stars in the skyyyyy....]
As soon as Lin Ru sang the final verse, the song ended and Ren stopped playing the guitar.
He glanced around his surroundings and saw everyone looking at him with shocked faces but before he could say anything, he felt a warm sensation surrounding his body.
It was Lin Ru who had suddenly hugged him.
"Thank you, I, I don"t now what to say but thank you."
In the middle of the song, Lin Ru had already realised that everyone was liking her song and after the song when she saw everyone looking at her with shocked expressions, she began overcame with emotions.
In her outbreak of emotions, she suddenly hugged Ren who had made it possible.

Inside a room with some superhero posters, a man was silently listening to the radio.
He was a man who looked to be in his 30s and he can be considered a successful person in the capital.
He was a online web novel author and his novels are popular, so he can be said to earning good money right now.
But when he had first came to the capital, he was a broke person and he didn"t have money to buy a laptop or a TV.
At that time, he used to share a small role with some of his friends. The living was difficult and the only thing for entertainment was a radio, one of his friends had.
In that radio, he used to listen to the shows and music programs and before he knew it, it had became a habit of his to listen to the radio.
That"s why every morning and night, he will take breaks from his writing and quietly listen to the radio.
Today, when he was listening to his favourite show "A beautiful morning with Wu Wei", he came across a interesting person.
The person was Ren who was being interviewed by Wu Wei today. He didn"t knew about him before but he really liked him after listening to his interview.
It was because he felt that Ren was like him. He was also a poor person who worked his way up and now, he was an actor who was playing a lead role in a drama.
Because of that, he really liked him. He even thought of watching Ren"s drama but he was shocked when he heard the voice of Wu Wei starting the live music segment.
"h.e.l.lo, our dear listeners, I hope you would still be listening to our show. Just a while ago, we have a interesting talk with Xin Ren and he had originally left but you would be glad to know that he"s back now and he will be be performing a song with a new and upcoming singer Lin Ru."
"A song?? An actor is going to performing a song."
The man was really confused when he heard that. Ren was an actor, so why was he performing a song and he had previously left, why was he suddenly back.
There were many questions in his mind but before he could comprehend them, the song started to play out of the radio.
It was started with a prelude of a sweet tune and after a while, the lyrics started to play out.
[When we were younger,
We used to do everything together,
Watching the sunset, going to school,
And going out in the late nights.]
As soon as he heard the first verse, his mind got blank and he suddenly thought of his first love that he had drifted apart from.
Although he longer loves her, there were still memories about her in his mind.
Going to school together, quarrelling with each other, breaking up and then reconciling with each other.
They were all fun and happy memories that he still cherished very much. Although he can"t meet her, he still sometimes think about her.
While listening to the song, the man drifted into his sea of memories as he recalled the sweet memories of his first love.
It was a heartbreaking but sweet feeling and before he knew it, the song was finis.h.i.+ng.
[I wish we can meet everyday,
Like we were when we were young,
And spend our days together and the night,
Under the stars in the skyyyyy....]
As soon as the song finished, the man looked at the radio with a mixture of emotions. He wanted to hear the song once again but only Wu Wei voice sounded out from the radio.
"I hope you all will like the heartwarming performance of these two youngsters. It made me feel the essence of love, the most beautiful thing in life. I hope our listeners would have felt the same way. It was the end of today"s broadcast. I am your host, Wu Wei."
The advertis.e.m.e.nt started playing out after that but the man had already turned off the radio as before he knew it, tears were falling from his eyes.
He felt that love is indeed the most beautiful thing in life.
