PS Chapter 78 – This Time, Shake It
In Lu Chen’s dream world, “Those Flowers” is a classic created by a talented singer.
This low-key, beautiful and slightly sentimental folk song has moved countless people. It has been repeatedly sung by other singers, and often appeared in school’s cultural evening party. It can be called a graduation divine song.
Although he sang it in this world, the charm of this song has not faded at all.
It easily evokes the deep feelings in people’s hearts, especially those who have loved, hurt, and experienced the same parting, and naturally have a strong resonance.
Therefore, there were so many girls that were in tears. The song was full of soft memories, full of reverie, but eventually no one can escape the sorrow of parting – This is how we are, fleeing to the horizon!
And in “Those Flowers”, Lu Chen poured his most sincere feeling.
He used this song to say goodbye to his campus youth.
“Those Flowers, Thank you everybody!”
Then, Lu Chen deeply bowed.
The applause suddenly exploded, as if it was the gunfire on the battlefield, fierce and lasting!
A lot of girls stood up with tears in their eyes and clapped their tender palms hard until their palm became red and were hurting, but they didn’t care.
The boys followed suit, and the way they expressed their feelings was more direct, that is, to roar loudly.
“Well sung!” “Sing it again!” “one more song!” ...
Soon, all the cheers and shouts turned into the simplest word: More!
“More!”
Without experiencing the baptism of social reality, most of these boys and girls retain simple and sincere feelings.
Since they liked it and they were moved, they will not be stingy with their praise and applause.
Lu Chen straightened up and nodded, “Thank you!”
He took a deep breath, turned back, and walked backstage.
His performance has ended.
“More!” “More!” “More!”
But the shouts from under the stage did not disappear because of Lu Chen’s departure. Instead, it became more and more intense and resounding, as if they wanted to overturn the domes of the auditorium!
The powerful male voice and the delicate and crisp female voice all melted into one voice.
“More!”
Several school leaders and teachers in the front two rows of the audience couldn’t sit still anymore. They stood up and turned around, waving their arms to signal the students to calm down and not interfere with the performance.
But no one paid any attention to them. Their authority had expired on graduation day!
Many people look at each other and they didn’t know what to do. After all, they usually don’t encounter such situation during a school’s cultural performance.
Even Lu Chen didn’t thought that this would happen.
He was just about to walk down the stairs when the host hurried over to stop him.
“Lu Chen, go back and sing another song!”
All college students are enthusiastic and impulsive, and if the atmosphere at the scene is not controlled, something big may happen.
The host’s face was already pale.
“Alright!”
Lu Chen also realized the seriousness of the problem and hurried back to the center of the stage.
As he appeared again, the enthusiastic shouts quickly calmed down, but everyone was still standing.
Lu Chen sorted out his thoughts and said to the microphone, “Thank you all for loving this song so much. Then I’ll sing you another song. I also wrote it myself. I hope you like it.”
“Its named is “Ballad of Time!””
Warm applause rang out like raindrops hitting against the leaves of a tree.
But it disappeared in an instant.
Because Lu Chen started singing.
“Time slows down and the world is one year older,
How can I not be in a hurry,
Youth has escaped.
For so many years,
You always say the meeting hasn’t changed,
But the picture recorded the young face.
What hasn’t changed is,
This infatuation,
What’s changed is,
This time.
So many years of youth,
Gone forever,
I’ve met people I miss.
The world is still the world,
The original hero is no longer dear.
....... ”
Freely playing the guitar, Lu Chen sang eloquently, singing to bring all the audience back to the past, to relive the beauty of the past, and to remember the people who come and go in their lives.
This song has a sentimental feeling that is different from “Those Flowers”, but it is more nostalgic.
Like the chorus of the song.
“......
At this time, shake ah,
At this time, turn.
At this time, shake ah,
At this time, it turns!
......”
With Lu Chen’s clear and clean, slightly sentimental singing, an indescribable atmosphere enveloped the auditorium. Everyone consciously or unconsciously sat down again and quietly listened to him playing and singing.
And the backstage was as equally quiet.
The facilities of the auditorium were very advanced. There was a TV screen in the backstage area so that the people can watch the live broadcast of the stage.
Almost everyone in the big dressing room gathered in front of the screen.
Cao Xiuzhu was one of them.
She had just shed tears, and there were still glistening tears in the corners of her eyes.
She was not the only one who shed tears.
“......
So many years of youth,
gone forever,
I’ve met people I miss.
But what hasn’t changed is this infatuation,
What’s changed is,
This time!
I want to sing you a ballad of time,
So that my youth will not grow old.
I want to sing you a ballad of time,
So that my youth will not grow old.
....... ”
Our youth will not grow old!
At the end of his performance, Lu Chen did not thank any more, but quietly bowed and left the stage.
As for the rest, let everyone slowly reminiscent.
This time, no one asked for more, because everyone was still immersed in the atmosphere created by the song.
Lu Chen smoothly returned to the backstage.
As soon as he came down, a figure suddenly rushed over and hugged him!
Lu Chen was startled and when he took a closer look, he hurriedly cried: “Hey, hey, class leader Cao, don’t hug!”
It was Cao Xiuzhu who hugged him. The female class leader loosened her arms and said, “Lu Chen, you sing so well. I didn’t know you were so talented!”
Lu Chen smiled and said, “I call it as being a late bloomer...”
At this time, a lot of people gather around Lu Chen and clapped their hands together.
Whether they were about to perform on stage or have returned from their performance, they gave Lu Chen a neat, warm and sincere applause!
Lu Chen was surprised and moved. He couldn’t express himself and could only say, “Thank you, thank you all! Thank you!”
Su Xuan was also in the crowd. She was smiling and wishing him happiness.
.......
When Lu Chen and Gao He returned to their dormitory after the graduation party, it was already 11:30.
No one spoke. They just lay on their respective beds.
This was their last night in college.
“Goodbye, my dog days of youth!”
No one knows who shouted hoarsely and exhaustively but it passed through their window and broke the silence of the night.
It seemed to be a wounded lone wolf. (TN: Single dude)
“Goodbye, my university!”
Bang!
There was the low sound of something exploding.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sound seemed contagious and spread like a plague.
Gao He, who slept in the lower bunk of Lu Chen, suddenly turned over and stood up, and his head hit Lu Chen’s bedboard hard.
But this Shandong man didn’t care at all. He picked up the thermos on the ground, pushed open the window, threw the thermos out hard, and shouted out at the window with all his strength, “Wang Xiaoling, I love you!”
“Come home with me!”
Lu Chen, Wan Hongzhi and Zhou Rui looked at each other and were speechless to comfort.
Wan Hongzhi silently picked up his thermos, followed Gao He and also threw out his thermos, “Damn!”
Lu Chen smiled and he jumped out of his bed immediately.
And they all threw out things together!
Hot water bottle, basin, dental glass, trash can, textbook, etc.
The whole dormitory area of the university soon turned into a crazy battlefield. Everyone threw out all the things they could throw away.
The sound of crashing, cracking, shouting, crying... reverberated in the silent night for a long time.
This is our youth!
Gao He leaned over and pulled out a box of canned beer from under the bed to open it.
He grabbed several cans of beer and threw them to Lu Chen and others, opened one himself, and said in a hoarse voice, “On this last night of college, no one will sleep!” ”
As soon as his voice fell, the dormitory door was pushed open.
Appearing at the door, was a petite girl with tears on her face.
She sobbed and said, “Gao He, I’ll go home with you.”
Clatter!
The beer can in Gao He’s hand suddenly fell to the ground, and the liquid mixed with foam spattered out.
And bit by bit of it splashed down on him.
_____
TN: Song: Here.
TN: The original word that the student chanted have different translations. It was either Go, Rush, Change, To, and other more. But I thought it wasn’t appropriate to use those words. So, I changed it to “More”. The other option was “Encore” but I thought it didn’t fit with the mood.
