Translator: Legge Editor: Legge

In the auditorium.

The atmosphere at the Welcoming Ceremony was extremely passionate.

"It's almost ending."

"We're already into the final program."

"I heard that Zhang Ye and Dong Shanshan will be performing!"

"Yeah, our seniors are all back!"

"I'm so looking forward to it!"

"Right, I like them sooo much!"

"I heard that they'll be singing, and it's going to be an original too!"

"I applied for Media College this year just because of Zhang Ye!"

"Me too, and we're going to get to see them immediately too!"

The freshmen were all waiting in anticipation. Quite a few of the sophomores and juniors also came to attend today's ceremony. They were also waiting to watch Zhang Ye, Dong Shanshan, and the other seniors' show!

But unknown to them, the backstage had plunged into chaos!

The staff members kept making calls until their cell phones died.

"No one's answering!"

"Where are they?"

"Why aren't they here yet?"

Ever since the ceremony began, they hadn't seen a trace of them!

Su Hongyan was getting very anxious and pacing back and forth. Suddenly, heavy footfalls sounded. She looked up immediately. "Aiyo! My little ancestors, where have you all been?"

Wang He panted, "We're here!"

Su Hongyan was taken aback. "Hu Feifei's here too?

Hu Feifei felt extremely agitated. "T-Teacher Su!"

Su Hongyan took her hand. "Where did you disappear to for so long? And the rest of you, why did you arrive in such a…"

Old Wang huffed and puffed. "Teacher, it's difficult to explain!"

Yu Yingyi asked, "Is it our turn yet?"

"It's your turn right now!" Su Hongyan said, "Quickly get ready!"

A distance away, a school official said, "What's there to get ready for? There's no time, just get onstage!"

Zhang Ye said, "Alright, let's go!"

The group of them shouted in unison, "Let's go!"

The stage went dark and the curtains were drawn.

An atmosphere of excitement was building up in the auditorium as everyone knew that the finale was coming up.

"Alumni!"

"Alumni!"

"Alumni!"

"Alumni!"

A lot of people in the audience started shouting!

There were no empty seats in the thousand-person auditorium!

Behind the curtains, Zhang Ye, Dong Shanshan, and the others were on their instruments. The microphones were also in place.

Xiaoqian smiled and said, "Fellas, how long has it been since we performed on stage together? Do you guys remember?"

"Four years," Hu Feifei said with a smile.

Dong Shanshan's reminiscing could be seen on her features. "Yeah, it's been four years. The last time was during prom in our junior year. Our class sang a song that shocked the entire school as we performed it too terribly. We even got singled out to be criticized!"

Da Hui belly laughed and said, "Then let's shock them again!"

Zhang Ye said, "Fellas, let's tell this story of ours to the underclassmen!"

Hu Feifei put out her hand. "Youth never dies!"

Zhang Ye placed his hand on hers. "Youth never dies!"

Dong Shanshan shouted, "Youth never dies!"

Everyone's hands came together!

"Let's do it!"

"Gooo!"

The curtains lifted!

Su Hongyan and many of the other teachers were sitting in the audience.

The many students of Media College started screaming crazily!

Zhang Ye carried a semi-acoustic guitar and walked to the lead singer's position. Yu Yingyi raised a violin, Da Hui took the drummer's position, and everyone else got into their positions!

Zhang Ye nodded to Da Hui.

Da Hui snapped his fingers for the countdown and played a beat!

Once.

Twice.

Thrice.

The piano played as well.

The strumming of the guitar followed!

Zhang Ye closed his eyes and stepped up to the microphone. He opened the song 1 with a very high note, his voice stunning the entire audience of teachers and students. He sang loudly, "Just where is that world overflowing with flowers? / If it's a real place, then I will find a way to get there."

The second lead vocalist, Wang He, laughed, "I want to tower on the highest peak in that place, / ignoring if there are steep cliffs all around."

While smiling, Dong Shanshan sang, "By living fast and loving hard, death is nothing to fear. / Not living for the sake of others but to be proud of myself here."

Da Hui continued drumming and stuck his head close to the microphone. "I have never chosen to give up on my dreams, / even on days that are broken at the seams."

Old Wang raised a hand. "Perhaps I have no talent!"

Ma Xufei sang, "But I have the simplicity of a dream!"

He Kui had a smile on his face. "I will demonstrate it with all of my being."

Hu Feifei sang emotionally, "Perhaps my mouth is clumsier than my feet!"

Xiaoqian embraced her. "But I'll never stop searching."

Yu Yingyi shouted, "I will give all of my youth without regret!"

All of a sudden, a roar of voices exploded!

The music and rhythm soared!

Everyone who was standing onstage gave a look to the person beside them. Zhang Ye looked at Wang He; Dong Shanshan looked at Yu Yingyi; Xiaoqian looked at Hu Feifei. Then, all of them raised their hands in unison!

They roared together!

There were mad grins on their faces!

"Run forward!

"Despite the side eyes and insults!

"How can you experience all life has to offer without suffering!"

They put down their hands and then pounded their chests.

"Destiny can't make us kneel and beg for mercy!

"Even if!

"Our arms are soaked in blood!

"Keep running!

"With the pride of a pure heart!

"How can you see the beauty of life if you don't stick it out!

"Instead of clinging to life, live passionately, burn brightly!

"Someday it will sprout again!"

Su Hongyan looked totally stunned!

All of the students in the audience also looked very shocked!

The imagery of a "me against the world spirit" and "youthful passion," the story of Zhang Ye, Dong Shanshan, Hu Feifei, and the others, everyone could seemingly see all of it in this moment!

All of them stood up!

In this very moment, the entire audience was moved!

The auditorium doors had been opened at some point in time, and there were eight or nine police officers who had entered the building. However, they did not go to arrest anyone. They just stood there stunned as they watched the people onstage in shock. Similar to those in the audience, an image was conjured up in their minds as they felt the full effects of the song as well!

Zhang Ye?

Dong Shanshan?

Yu Yingyi?

Wang He?

Just what kinds of people were in this group?

Everyone saw the illusion of a brilliant light flashing before their eyes!

Zhang Ye, Wang He, and Da Hui raised their fists. "Run forward!"

Ma Xufei, Old Wang, and He Kui roared, "Despite the side eyes and insults!"

Dong Shanshan, Yu Yingyi, and Xiaoqian shoutsang in a high register, "How can you experience all life has to offer without suffering!"

Hu Feifei's tears were flowing down her cheeks as she howled while crying, "Destiny can't make us kneel and beg for mercy! / Even if! Our arms are soaked in blood!"

The people onstage were moving closer and closer to each other!

Then they hugged each other by putting their hands over each other's shoulders and screamed as crazily as they could.

"Keep running!

"With the pride of a pure heart!

"How can you see the beauty of life if you don't stick it out!

"Instead of clinging to life, live passionately, burn brightly!"

All of them looked at one another!

Zhang Ye started them off by raising his middle finger and pointing it angrily at the sky!

Dong Shanshan looked up and raised her middle finger!

Hu Feifei put up her hand and raised her middle finger!

All of them raised their middle fingers!

Fuck giving up!

Fuck cowardice!

Fuck reality!

All of them pointed angrily at the heavens and looked up at it.

"For our beautiful dreams!

"Uncompromising through the years!"

Su Hongyan was wiping away her tears!

Many of the students could feel their blood surging!

These were their alumni!

These were their alumnae!

Wonderful! Your story…is just wonderful!
