At Nepenthes Bar, the atmosphere was at its best.
Here, there wasn't the impetuous hustle and bustle of Sanlitun's bars. There weren't any gaudy and messy electronic songs and dances, and there weren't any revelry or roars of excessive drinking. Customers sat around the tables, chatting and laughing in low voices or enjoying the music. In the corner, couples were whispering sweet nothings to each other, and well-trained waiters walked in between them with plates in their hands.
On the stage, a delicate and pretty female singer was playing folk songs. Those feelings, love, and those sad and melancholy lyrics were like a gurgling stream, flowing into people's ears and hearts.
In front of the bar, Chen Fei 'er finished her second glass of Burning.
She was a little drunk.
This cocktail was called "Burning", which was a recipe developed by David himself. It was red like a flame, and it was as strong as fire. People with low alcohol tolerance would get drunk after drinking one glass.
Chen Fei 'er's alcohol tolerance was quite good, although as a singer, she couldn't drink too much to protect her voice.
But as a person, the most important thing was to be happy!
She was very happy that night, so she made an exception and drank a little more.
This made Lu Chen a little worried.
He leaned over and whispered in Chen Fei 'er's ear, "Sister Fei, let me send you back?"
Although up until now, no one had recognized her, it was hard to say if she was drunk.
Maybe she would make the headlines tomorrow!
Chen Fei 'er turned her head, and the two almost touched lips.
She didn't dodge, and said with bright eyes, "The atmosphere here is very good, I want to sing."
Lu Chen slightly shrank back and asked, "You want to sing?"
If she went on stage and sang, she would definitely be recognized!
Chen Fei 'er nodded seriously, "Yes!"
The song she wanted to sing was not for others, but for herself.
Lu Chen couldn't help but look back.
Seeing that Sister Zhang was still sitting in the corner, he thought for a moment and asked, "What song?"
Although it was a date that night, Chen Fei'er's assistant and chauffeur-cum-bodyguard were actually there. When the two of them took a stroll after dinner, they followed them from afar. Of course, they were also in the bar now.
As a celebrity, especially a big star like Chen Fei'er, if there was no one around him when he was out, it would be very troublesome if he was recognized, not to mention the danger.
Chen Fei 'er moved closer to Lu Chen's ear and whispered two words.
This was the title of a song and one of the three songs Lu Chen wrote for her new album.
Her breath blew into Lu Chen's ear. It was a little ticklish with the smell of alcohol.
This made Lu Chen a little absent-minded, and he couldn't help but nod.
It was as if he had been cursed.
Lu Chen took Chen Fei'er backstage.
Forget Worries Bar's resident and contracted singers were no longer the ones Lu Chen was familiar with.
The Bionics had signed a contract with Light Rain Media and were now doing very well.
Needless to say, Li Hong, Ye Zhenyang and Wang Xiaoshuai had already left. It was normal for a bar to have an iron camp and a flowing stream of soldiers.
But now, the singers backstage basically knew Lu Chen and Lu Chen's identity.
Seeing Lu Chen and Chen Fei'er come in, they all stood up, "Hello, Brother Chen!"
These singers obviously knew that Lu Chen came to Forget Worries Bar at night, so they were pleasantly surprised but not surprised.
Lu Chen smiled in response and then said, "I'll be up next, I'll be collaborating with a friend!"
Hearing Lu Chen's words, some of the singers were surprised and some were very happy.
One of the female singers smiled and said, "I've long heard of your name. We're really lucky tonight!"
She even looked at Chen Fei'er with envy and jealousy.
In Houhai's circle, Lu Chen had long been a dream-like story.
Apart from Lu Chen's own career development, there are the Wandering band, Sister Na, and the North Needle band, which has just released a single not long ago, that has been held up by his hands alone.
These people were the same as them, they were originally in Houhai. Now that they had soared, how could they not be envious?
She also regarded Chen Fei'er as one of her peers, the very lucky kind.
After a few minutes, the singer in front finished singing and Lu Chen and Chen Fei'er went on stage.
He asked the waiter to push the piano out.
Seeing this scene, the guests in the bar suddenly became excited — Lu Chen was going to sing!
Today, Lu Chen was no longer the small singer in the bar. The number of times he came to Forget Worries Bar was getting fewer and fewer, so many old customers could only reminisce about the time when he played and sang on stage and bragged to his new companions.
Today, it was a surprise for Lu Chen to appear here, but it was exciting for him to go on stage.
Would Lu Chen come out with a new work tonight?
One must know that Lu Chen had sung many original works in Forget Worries Bar.
To be able to listen to Hatsune's new song was really a wonderful thing that was worth reminiscing about.
Of course, although they were excited, everyone was still very polite and didn't make a racket.
Instead, the bar became quiet.
This was the reason why Lu Chen was willing to bring Chen Fei'er to Forget Worries Bar. It didn't matter much if he was recognized.
Forget Worries Bar had also invited singers and artists in the circle to perform.
He sat down in front of the piano and said to the microphone that had just been set up, "Everyone, long time no see …"
There was a sudden burst of boos in the bar — you still have the nerve to say that?
Then they all laughed.
Lu Chen also laughed, "I know I rarely come here now, so tonight I decided to make it up to everyone. I specially invited a friend to cooperate with me on a new song!"
It really was a new song!
There was immediately a warm applause in the bar.
Lu Chen got up and bowed to thank everyone, then made a gesture of invitation to Chen Fei'er.
Chen Fei'er smiled sweetly and stood in the center of the stage, in front of the microphone.
Who is this?
Everyone looked at each other, no one immediately recognized Chen Fei'er who was wearing glasses and had a makeup.
Only a few people faintly felt that she was a little familiar.
Of course, since she was Lu Chen's friend, everyone still gave her face and also applauded to show their welcome.
Chen Fei'er said softly, "Thank you …"
She nodded at Lu Chen, indicating that they could start.
Lu Chen sat down again and played the prelude.
The pure piano accompaniment was very pleasant to listen to. At the beginning, it caught everyone's ears and made everyone silent.
Lu Chen's piano level was very ordinary, but compared to before, after a period of practice, playing a relatively simple song was not a problem at all.
The song was not complicated, but it was very fresh for the regular customers in the bar.
In the past, when they saw Lu Chen, he was always playing the guitar.
But soon, everyone's attention was all attracted by Chen Fei'er.
Because she began to sing.
"There are not too many people who want to see you but are still waiting;
It is heartbreaking, broken into a river;
Walking forward alone in the vicissitudes of life, saying to live well;
But no matter how busy I am, I can't quench the thirst of love.
When I meet you, I don't say it's worth it, not worth it;
When I brush shoulders, I help each other, being a passerby;
Walking forward alone in the vicissitudes of life, saying to live well;
But no matter how busy I am, I can't quench the thirst of love!
Humming your song across the mountains and seas,
Riding the waves and sailing, forgetting you and forgetting me;
From then on, the river is only a legend,
Heaven and earth melted, stars swallowed,
Humming your song across the mountains and seas,
Riding the waves and sailing, forgetting you and forgetting me;
From then on, the river is only a legend,
Heaven and earth melted, stars swallowed ~
… … "
The name of this song was "Sea of Faces". Chen Fei 'er sang it drunkenly and sang it a little carelessly, but her singing skills were impeccable, calm and not ostentatious. The poetic lyrics were sung leisurely, like the sounds of nature.
It was a simple accompaniment and a simple singing, but it was like a clear spring that nourished one's heart. Inadvertently, one's impetuosity was washed away, and one's whole body relaxed, immersed in the artistic conception created by the singing.
The bar was quiet, no one spoke or walked around, and all eyes fell on Chen Fei'er.
Chen Fei'er sang very self-consciously and emotionally.
Lu Chen wrote three songs for her, and the one that resonated with her the most was "Woman Flower".
But her favorite was "Sea of Faces". Perhaps from an artistic point of view, "Sea of Faces" was not as good as "Woman Flower" and did not have the potential to become a classic, but she liked it.
When Chen Fei'er sang "Humming your song across the mountains and seas", she couldn't help but look back at Lu Chen.
Her eyes were gentle.
This was not the first time she cooperated with Lu Chen, but it was the first time she sang this song in public.
She just wanted to sing it, here, at this time.
"… …
Tenderness is sung by you,
You are faintly seen on the other side;
Build a boat in the wind and never look back,
Even if you want to conquer only the desert;
Cherishing is the rarest,
Loving you makes life vast;
Tenderness is sung by me,
Accompanying you in the sea of faces without stopping.
Humming your song across the mountains and seas,
Treading on the waves and sailing, forgetting you and forgetting me;
From then on, the river is just a legend,
Heaven and earth melted, stars swallowed;
… … "
At the climax of the chorus, Chen Fei'er's voice was a little higher, and the characteristics of her voice were vividly displayed.
The feelings contained in the song also became stronger.
Finally, someone heard it: "It's a bit like Chen Fei'er!"
Not just a bit, but the more they looked, the more similar they looked. After being reminded, everyone had a feeling of enlightenment.
When Chen Fei'er sang for the second time, many people couldn't sit still.
There was even a small commotion in the bar.
Chen Fei'er smiled and took off the glasses that covered her face.
She felt so good.
Then let's give everyone a surprise!
There was no need to hide anymore.
It was really a surprise!
In the Forget Grass Bar, it was as if a heavy bomb had exploded silently.
Many people couldn't believe their eyes — the person who sang in front of them was actually Chen Fei'er!
Some people stood up and hurriedly sat back down, their faces flushed.
Some girls opened their eyes wide and covered their mouths, and some secretly took out their mobile phones to take photos.
But more people were still seriously enjoying the song.
Because it was not easy to get, so they had to cherish it!
