Perfect Superstar

Chapter 135 - The Brightest Star

"Myoriginal dream has not changed..."

"BecauseI want to make money to help pay off my family’s debts..."

"I wantmy family to live a happy life. I want my mother to no longer have to work hardday and night."

"Therefore,I have to make a lot of money!"

When LuChen’s firm and powerful voice, through the LCD TV stereo hanging on the wall,clearly entered Lu Xi’s ears, her sister’s eyes suddenly appeared a littleglistening.

She came toBeijing from the Binhai and saw with her own eyes how hard Lu Chen worked tomake money and knew how much he had paid.

Chen Jianhaoonce told Lu Xi privately that when Lu Chen came to work in his bar, he wasalways very diligent and almost never late for work.

In order toearn more tips, among all the waiters, Lu Chen is the most diligent in runningsolo. Because he has to bring tea and wine to the guests every day, he is oftentoo tired that he can’t get up straight, and often rides the last subway backto his rental house in the evening.

And he hasbeen living in a basement where he could not see the sun and cheap rent.

Later, LuChen came out to sing. In order to make up for his shortcomings, he practiced theguitar desperately. Even if he had a pick, he would still play until hisfingers were broken and bleeding.

He can now easilyrefer to folk songs, the basis of his practice, until his skill has progressedby leaps and bounds.

Chen Jianhao’swillingness to help Lu Chen was also because he was impressed by his hard work.

At thismoment, Lu Xi’s estrangement to Lu Chen disappeared silently.

The present LuChen is no longer that ignorant big kid of the past!

Is there anyreason for her to continue holding on to her prejudices?

He is heryounger brother.

In the T1studio, the applause resounded.

Although thecurrent talent show has changed a lot from before, the contestants no longer trytheir best to make up stories, but when it comes to dreams and ideals, it isnatural for them to say something passionate or touching in order to impressthe audience and win votes.

Chen Fei’er wasmoved: "I hope your dreams can come true. I believe they will cometrue!"

Lu Chensmiled: "Thank you!"

Tan Hongnodded: "Then start your performance!"

Lu Chen tooka deep breath, suppressed the intense fluctuations in his heart, and adjustedhis aura and mood to the best.

Then heturned sideways and gave a thumbs-up to the live accompaniment band - ready tobegin.

The prelude soundedimmediately.

Lu Chen willsing this song for himself!

He held theguitar and plucked the steel string.

When thestudio quickly quieted down, the surrounding lights quietly went out, andcountless stars began to flash on the dark dome, just like the most beautifulstarry sky of the night.

"Thebrightest star in the night sky, can you hear clearly,

The endlesssighs from lonely souls looking up.

Will thebrightest star in the night sky recall,

Mycompanion, whose shadow melt into the wind.

I pray for aclear conscience with tears on my eyes,

Find thestrength to embrace you, pretending nothing’s wrong...

Whenever I amlost in darkness and fail to find the meaning of life,

Oh~ thebrightest star in the night sky, guide me towards you.

......"

Behind LuChen, a magnificent scene of the universe appeared on the huge screen.

Becausethere is always something in life that makes us worth caring about and worthbeing moved!

"......

Thebrightest star in the night sky, do you know.

Where artthou, shadow that enjoins two hearts.

Oh~ thebrightest star in the night sky, do you really care

Whether thesun rises first or misfortune arrives.

I’d ratherkeep all the pain in my heart, than forget the look of your eyes.

Find thestrength to embrace you, pretending nothing’s wrong...

Whenever Iam lost in darkness and fail to find the meaning of life,

Oh~ thebrightest star in the night sky, please shine the path towards you.
