After a while, all the children in the orphanage ran over to receive small gifts for the New Year, but only a little girl about six years old was left sitting alone in the corner and did not move.
"I'll go take a look,"
Yu Jingqiu said to Li Zetian, and then walked towards the little girl with a beautiful golden butterfly hairpin and a small pocket of candy.
"Hello, kid!" Yu Jingqiu crouched down and said to the little girl gently.
The little girl just glanced at her and didn't speak.
Yu Jingqiu was not discouraged, and still kept a smile on his face.
"This is a New Year's gift for you, doesn't it look good?"
Yu Jingqiu handed the hairpin to the little girl.
The hairpin is very beautiful, and the little girl couldn't help but take a few more glances. However, she still didn't speak to Yu Jingqiu, she turned to the side and looked to the other side.
At this time, the head of the orphanage came over and said to Jing Qiu, "This child was just sent here a week ago, and he is not used to it..."
Afterwards, the head of the orphanage will pull Jingqiu aside and introduce the little girl's situation in detail, she said: "This little girl is called Zhou Qiqi. More than ten days ago, Qiqi and her parents went to the park to play, but unexpectedly The cable car suddenly crashed, but at the very moment when the cable car fell, Kiki's parents lifted her, who had just turned six years old, with all her might."
The dean paused and sighed, "Kiki only suffered a little injury, but her parents unfortunately both passed away! We are now comforting and opening her up, and we will make special arrangements for her at 8 o'clock this evening. It's a party! By the way, I heard Mr. Xiao say, you are a student of Harvard University's music department, can you come and sing a song for her?"
After listening to Qiqi's story, Yu Jingqiu felt sympathy for her and nodded and replied, "If you can make Qiqi happy, why not agree?"
"Miss Yu, on behalf of the orphanage, I thank you!"
"Don't say that, this is what I should do!"
As soon as the dean left, Li Zetian came over, and he stood aside. He could hear the conversation between the two of them clearly.
"Jingqiu, I just finished listening to Qiqi's story, I want to write a song for her, you can sing the song I wrote tonight!!!" Li Zetian said to Jingqiu.
"Yeah!" Yu Jingqiu nodded.
After returning home in the afternoon, Li Zetian immediately wrote Han Hong's "The Daybreak", but changed "autumn" to "winter".
"Jingqiu, come and practice, I'll accompany you on the piano!!!"
After Li Zetian finished speaking, he handed her the sheet music, and then sat in front of the piano. Xiao Zhixuan, Li Chengzhi, and Yu Jingshan were all sitting on the sofa, ready to listen to the new song Li Zetian had just written!
Many singers can sing directly as soon as they get the sheet music. This is called sight-singing. Looking at the sheet music, the music comes out in their minds. As a top student in the Harvard Music Department, Yu Jingqiu still has this ability!
Therefore, Li Zetian did not let Yu Jingqiu read it first, but directly played the piano!
As the piano sounded, Yu Jingqiu also sang:
"It was a winter
The wind is so lingering
Reminds me of their helpless eyes
right there with the beautiful scenery
I heard a loud bang through the valley
It's that autumn when I can't see my father's face again
He used his shoulders to hold the beginning of my rebirth
…
"
The song expresses that at the moment of life and death, parents do not think of themselves. They leave the hope of life to their children with their hands. This is parental love. The melody is subdued, forming a misty emotional color, rendering and setting off this sad atmosphere, reminiscent of this true story. This bleak and sad atmosphere at the beginning makes the story even more heavy; the climax is exciting, full of hope, not too indulging in sadness; and finally, the finale in the erratic sound.
After singing a song, Yu Jingqiu cried herself and everyone present!
"Son, this song is so well written, so touching!" Xiao Zhixuan said, wiping her tears with a tissue.
Although Li Zetian didn't cry as much as they cried, his eyes were also red. This song was written by Han Hong, and it was written based on real people. Every time Li Zetian heard this song, he was very moved, because it was so well written! ! !
Li Zetian smiled at Xiao Zhixuan, then turned to look at Yu Jingqiu, "Jingqiu, let's practice a few more times, and strive to bring warmth to Qiqi with tonight's performance!"
"Yeah!" Yu Jingqiu choked up and nodded.
Afterwards, Yu Jingqiu and Li Zetian practiced for more than half an hour until Yu Jingqiu mastered the song.
At 6 o'clock in the evening, Xiao Zhixuan called everyone for dinner.
The crowd sat around a round table.
"Cough cough, Zetian, why don't you take out the engagement ring soon?" Xiao Zhixuan said.
"Oh..." Li Zetian immediately took out a box from his pocket, opened it, and took out the diamond ring inside.
Under everyone's attention, Li Zetian walked up to Yu Jingqiu and said, "Jingqiu, I'll put it on for you!"
"Yeah~~" Yu Jingqiu replied in a low voice, extending his left hand.
Li Zetian held her hand and put the ring on her middle finger. When she got married, the ring could be put on the ring finger of her left hand.
clap clap clap! ! !
The crowd applauded.
Li Zetian kissed the back of Yu Jingqiu's hand, and then looked at her affectionately. At this moment, she was no longer his girlfriend, but his fiancee! ! !
"Okay, Zetian and Jingqiu, you are officially engaged, let's sit down and have dinner together!!!" Xiao Zhixuan laughed happily.
"Um!"
This meal, Li Zetian ate extraordinarily fragrant. In a blink of an eye, the lonely orphan in the previous life not only has parents and relatives, but also has a fiancée. Li Zetian will cherish everything he has at this moment and be a good son, good husband and good father! ! !
After dinner, the orphanage party was still waiting for Yu Jingqiu to sing, and the whole family set off immediately.
This party was held at the Grand Theater. In addition to the children from the orphanage, some well-known social figures were also invited! Of course, most of these people are people who like to do charity.
The five-hundred-seat theater was full.
All the performances are public welfare performances. The volunteers include students from Taipei University and National Taiwan University, star artists, folk orchestras, etc. The quality of the performances is quite good.
Because Yu Jingqiu joined temporarily, her singing was arranged to the end.
When she came on stage, everyone was a little tired.
However, when they saw Yu Jingqiu's long hair fluttering and the white clothes surpassing the snow, like a fairy descending to earth, everyone's eyes suddenly lit up!
After taking the stage, Yu Jingqiu said, "I will sing a song for Zhou Qiqi tonight, I hope she likes it! The name of this song is "The Daybreak"!!!"
As soon as the voice fell, the piano began to sound.
"
it was a winter
The wind is so lingering
Reminds me of their helpless eyes
…
"
The singing moved everyone present, and people burst into tears!
In all the previous performances, Zhou Qiqi had a blank expression, but when she heard this song, she suddenly thought of her parents, and she burst into tears and sobbed!
Yu Jingqiu couldn't help shedding tears and continued to sing full of emotion.
"
I saw my parents go so far
leave me in this strange world
I would like to build a beautiful garden for him
I want to hold his hand tightly
Mom told me I hope there will be more
see the sun come out
they laughed
Its daybreak"
After singing this song, Yu Jingqiu wiped her tears, looked at Zhou Qiqi in the audience, and said, "Zhou Qiqi, you have to learn to be strong, your parents will look at you with a smile in the sky..."
After speaking, Yu Jingqiu walked off the stage.
The audience immediately burst into applause! ! !
The party was over, Li Zetian stood up from the piano chair and walked to the backstage to pick up Yu Jingqiu.
"Tonight's performance was perfect!"
Li Zetian hugged Yu Jingqiu, then wiped the tears on her face with a tissue.
Just as the two of them were about to leave, a middle-aged man hurried in. When he saw Yu Jingqiu, his eyes lit up and he said, "Hello, miss, I just watched your singing, it was like singing. If you enter the entertainment industry, I can guarantee that you must be the second Teresa Teng!!! Oh, yes, first of all, let me introduce myself, my name is Wang Zheng, a talent scout from Taiwan Polygon Records! !!"
Having said that, the middle-aged man quickly took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Yu Jingqiu.
