Chapter 434 Bonus (5)
The audience cheered loudly as the dark stage slowly lit when the first string of the guitar was heard. The bands on the audience's wrist glowed in light pink (An Xiulan's idea) and they raised their hands in excitement, telling the man on the stage that they were with him.
It was such a spectacular start for Han Zixin as his crowd was with him from the beginning.
His mask was similar to what the crowd was wearing. Since Han Zixin was wearing a mask for his concert to protect his identity, his fans decided to support him by wearing a similar mask which was available outside the stadium and his team was providing it for free. His mask had a pastel blue and pastel pink colour while the masks of the audience were smaller in size and they were either pastel blue or pink, depending on what the fan wanted to wear. They decided to introduce more variety of masks for other concerts.
"Hello, An City!" He said in the mike and the crowd erupted in cheers.
They were hearing his voice for the very first time. They had heard him sing but they didn't know how he sounded when he was not singing. The girls felt their heart might give up as they heard his mesmerising and sweet voice. How would it be if this voice whispered things in their ear? They dared not imagine it.
Several girls felt in their heart how lucky his girlfriend was who get his hear his sweet whisperings.
"I'm so thrilled to start the tour with you, "Han Zixin said on the mic and the crowd erupted. "You guys have no idea how much your presence means to me. It would not be an exaggeration to say that I was scared that nobody would show up as I haven't been that good to you throughout the years. But thank you for coming. You mean a lot to me!"
The crowd yelled, "We love you no matter what!"
"So, shall we start with the first song of the night?" Han Zixin asked.
"Yes!!!" The crowd erupted into cheers.
"This is the song that started my career as a musician, I hope you will enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it, "Han Zixin said, "Throughout the years, we have forgotten its existence as new music comes and we forget the old one. But this song will always be special in my heart."
The crowd knew beforehand which song he was going to play. As the music began playing, they closed their eyes and held their breaths and waited for him to start the lyrics.
**??When I walk down a road I don't know well
And I'm full of scare and doubt
I think of you, I think of you
And when life shuts me down and there's no way to win
Sometimes I just wanna cry
I think of you, I think of you ??
[Song sung by John Park [I will always be your side.]
He sounded different this time when he sang this song. This time, it felt like he was living this song, not just singing it. It felt like he finally had someone by his side for whom he was ready to play this song everyday. It was like he had that someone by his side for who this song was written. The fans felt overwhelmed by emotions as they heard such a mesmerising version of this song.
In the crowd, An Xiulan's tears were trickling down her cheeks as she was singing this song along with the crowd with such a huge smile on her face. She was standing with the audience not in the VIP area. She wanted to enjoy his concert like a fan. A girl who was standing next to him, holding a banner that said how much she loved HZ, handed a tissue to An Xiulan and said, "Here, take this. I know this song is so emotional. People say it is full of warm and fuzzy feelings but for me it's so heart touching that each time I hear it, I end up crying."
"Thank you, "An Xiulan smiled as she wiped her cheeks.
"Do you want to hold this?" The girl asked her. "I have two banners but I can't hold two."
"Sure, "An Xiulan said. She was more than willing to hold the banner and sway with it. She was so busy with the preparations that she didn't think that she should have gotten one too.
Once the song ended, he sang everyone's favourite song. Once he started singing it, the crowd started dancing. It was the most fun part of the concert.
Han Zixin sang the first line and An Xiulan burst into laughter.
??She's been my queen
Since we were sixteen
We want the same things
We dream the same dreams
Alright, alright ??
[Steal my girl by One Direction.]
"What happened?" The girl beside her asked.
"My boyfriend often sings this song for me these days, "An Xiulan said. "He says this song is for us."
"How cute."
?? Everybody wanna steal my girl
Everybody wanna take her heart away
Couple billion in the whole wide world
Find another one 'cause she belongs to me ??
In the crowd, Han Nanxian and Song Xueyun were watching Han Zixin play with big smiles on their faces.
"Their PDA can never end, "Song Xueyun whispered. "Even on stage, he is singing for her."
Han Nanxian chuckled. "If I were a singer, I would sing for you too. What do I have to do with others?"
Song Xueyun rolled her eyes. "Mr Han, you will make a bad idle. Only focusing on your wife will not take you anywhere."
Han Nanxian pulled her closer to him and whispered in her ear, "Mrs Han, haven't you heard, happy wife, happy life?"
"So good with words, aren't you?" She asked.
Han Nanxian merely smiled and gestured to her to look at the stage.
Han Zixin sang straight for two hours. If not for the fact that he had practised a lot in the last month, he would not be able to sing that much. Moreover, his training as a special cop had helped him a lot.
"Now we have a surprise planned for the fans, "Han Zixin said on the mic. "We will play the song that the lucky fan in the crowd will choose. There would be a small game and whoever wins gets to choose the next song."
The crowd was very happy to hear this. Everyone got ready to play the special game. In the end, a woman standing in the mid-row won the round. She jumped for joy as she won it!
"Baobei, I won the round, "The woman jumped in joy. She was wearing a light blue mask while the man standing next to him was in a suit and the pink mask on his face was oddly awkward but cute too.
"En!" The man responded by patting her hair.
"Hey, Mr Rockstar, can I come on the stage?" The woman said as soon as she got the mike that was handed to her by the stage.
"Sure, "Han Zixin didn't say no to her. The woman looked so cheerful, unlike other fans who would have fainted at the choice of being selected. She was cheerful and confident. It was hard to say no to her. The light was dim and he could not see her face properly.
The woman climbed on the stage without any help from the staff, surprising many. She looked fragile but it seemed like she had some tricks up to her sleeve.
"Now can I tell you what song I want you to sing?" The woman asked with the biggest smile possible.
"Of course, please go ahead, "He said.
"Great!" She laughed as she looked at her husband in the crowd. "Please sing 'Gorgeous' by TS. I want to dedicate it to my husband."
The whole crowd was disheartened. They began saying that she was not even a real fan as she asked him to sing someone else's song.
Since Han Zixin had said that he would sing any song, he had to. They didn't make it clear from the beginning that it had to be his song.
"Can you sing it?" She asked him.
"I can try, "Han Zixin said, chuckling. "I may not be as good as the original singer."
"How about this? We will have a trial first to together and you can sing it again after that?" The woman suggested.
"Alright, "Han Zixin said.
The crowd was bewildered with the woman's activity but they could not say anything. They were just disheartened that she missed such a good opportunity. Many of the people there hadn't even heard the song that she was talking about. For them, the lyrics of the song were played on the big screen.
