Chapter 9

......

Sometimes I feel like~

I'm a little bird~

Wanting to fly~

But can't fly high no matter what~

Maybe one day I'll perch on a branch~

But become a hunter's target~

I fly up into the blue sky~

Only to find myself with no place to rely~

......

Every time when the night is deep and quiet~

I can't fall asleep~

I wonder if only my tomorrow~

Will never get better~

Who can really know what the future holds~

Is happiness just a legend~

That I can never find~

......

I am a little, little bird~

Wanting to fly, to fly~

But can't fly high~

I search and search~

For a warm embrace~

Is this request too much~

......

Du Xinghe's soft and emotional voice filled the music room.

Like most people, Du Xinghe had also gone through the stage of being a little bird, and even more so, he had been more lost, more helpless, more bitter, and more painful.

Therefore, his performance of this song was very accurate.

At the same time, rebirth brought him a new future, and the inspiring power deep in his heart was also expressed through the song.

Although his voice, weakened by illness, was still somewhat weak and lacked the penetrating power of the original singer, Zhao Chuan,

The extremely moving lyrics still pierced Xu Nuo's heart like a warm sword.

Almost every word of this song touched the softest part of Xu Nuo's heart.

The strong resonance made Xu Nuo unable to extricate herself from the scene depicted in the song.

She seemed to have transformed into a little bird, a bird that wanted to fly but could never fly high.

The feeling of helplessness and unwillingness to give up made Xu Nuo feel it deeply.

When Du Xinghe sang the second chorus with even stronger emotion, Xu Nuo couldn't help but shed tears.

......

All those who know my name~

Are you doing well~

The world is so small~

We are destined to have no place to run~

When I have tasted the warmth and cold of human nature~

When you decide to burn for your ideals~

Which is more important~

The pressure of life or the dignity of life~

......

I am a little, little bird~

Wanting to fly, to fly but can't fly high~

I search and search~

For a warm embrace~

Is this request too much~

......

Wiping away her tears, Xu Nuo tried to hold back her sore throat and savored Du Xinghe's performance.

Struck by the lyrics, Xu Nuo also asked herself: When she had tasted the warmth and cold of human nature, when she decided to burn for her ideals, which was more important—life's pressure or life's dignity?

The sharp and thought-provoking lyrics shook Xu Nuo to the core of her soul.

Such a song, bursting with life's power amidst helplessness, was truly a heavenly song to Xu Nuo!

Yesterday, when she listened to Du Xinghe's "Butterfly Dream," she didn't feel much resonance, only finding the song flavorful but not particularly moving.

Now, listening to "I Am a Little Bird," Xu Nuo was already moved beyond measure.

Compared to her own "Burial," this song of the same type, "I Am a Little Bird," didn't have any particularly unique composition, but the exquisite lyrics instantly elevated the entire song to a classic level.

Such simple and clear yet profound lyrics, even the top music producers of the four major companies might not be able to come up with so easily!

Du Xinghe, a 16-year-old dropout, could create such a touching song after just listening to her "Burial" and casually jotting down a draft in his mind. He was really too strong!

Too strong!

Unable to hide her admiration for Du Xinghe's genius, Xu Nuo mentally praised him with two "too strong."

If she knew that Du Xinghe's song was actually plagiarized from the master musician Li Zongsheng from another world, she wouldn't be surprised by how he could write such a profound song.

......

I am a little, little bird~

Wanting to fly, to fly but can't fly high~

I search and search~

For a warm embrace~

Is this request too much~

Is this request, too much~

......

Repeating the last line twice, Du Xinghe finally finished the heart-piercing "Little Bird."

The music room still echoed with the lingering guitar notes.

Turning his head, he saw Xu Nuo's eyes were red from crying. Du Xinghe smiled and asked knowingly, "Very moved, right?"

Xu Nuo nodded silently, her eyes full of emotion and admiration.

Seeing such a Xu Nuo, Du Xinghe thought she was truly an emotional girl. Such a girl was the easiest to touch with a song.

"You wrote this song so well, why are you so amazing?" Xu Nuo came to Du Xinghe, unable to hide her excitement and asked admiringly.

"Like father, like son, I guess."

Unable to explain to Xu Nuo why he was so amazing, Du Xinghe could only make up an answer: "Don't think I'm a carefree person. In my heart, I'm a very traditional Chinese person who wants to bring fame to my parents."

Although he said these words lightly, they were from the heart.

Having been in this world for so long, Du Xinghe still thought of his parents from the other world when he went to bed at night.

In that world, he arrogantly wasted his future and didn't properly honor his parents.

Now, thinking about it, he really regrets it.

His death must have caused his parents in that world immense and irreparable pain.

He really doesn't know how they can accept the harsh reality that their once proud son is gone.

Just like the title of Milan Kundera's most famous novel: The Unbearable Lightness of Being.

Some things, Du Xinghe simply dared not think deeply about, because the deeper he thought, the more he couldn't bear it.

He could only bury these emotions deep in his heart, using them to gather strength, hoping to one day create classic songs in this world that would be remembered by the world, to repay his parents in the other world.

Xu Nuo saw a distant and restrained sentiment in Du Xinghe's eyes, a sentiment she couldn't understand but still found very moving.

In Xu Nuo's eyes, Du Xinghe, the former "Huaguang Wolf," was becoming more and more handsome.

Without wasting time, Du Xinghe wrote out the lyrics and music for "I Am a Little Bird" for Xu Nuo and, based on her clear voice, rearranged the guitar accompaniment to make it more serene, thus highlighting Xu Nuo's delicate and unique voice.

Indeed, with Xu Nuo's singing skills and voice, she couldn't produce the heart-stirring power of Zhao Chuan.

But as long as Xu Nuo released all the suppressed emotions in her heart, she could certainly move the judges and the audience with this song.

Du Xinghe was confident of this.

After all, this was a classic masterpiece by Master Li Zongsheng.

If this song couldn't move the judges in this world, Du Xinghe would have to reassess the pop music scene here.
