"Okay, the theme of the next competition has been announced. Tonight's recording is over. Thank you all. Singers, please go back and prepare your songs. See you next week." After Zheng Tao finished speaking, he bowed and let everyone leave.

.

…

The singers each took the nanny car back to the hotel.

In the nanny's car.

Liu Hongsheng showed a rare smile: "This time I finally won one of Fang Xing's songs. At least it shows that Fang Xing is not invincible. We have a chance to win. But we don't have much chance."

His manager Hu Changqing said: "It's a pity that Fang Xing was not suppressed and won the first place. The quality of "Wutong Night Rain" this time was originally very high."

Liu Hongsheng waved his hand and said: "After listening to "Blue and White Porcelain", I knew that there was no chance tonight.

"However, we at least won "Life is Like a Summer Flower", which shows that not every song by Fang Xing is so difficult to deal with.

"Continue to contact the big players in the circle. I want a better team. The next issue will be about family love. We have an advantage on this theme. We must win first place once."

Hu Changqing smiled and said: "Actually, there is no need to be so anxious. According to the current momentum, Fang Xing will definitely advance to the finals after the end of the eighth period. Then the ninth period will be our world."

Liu Hongsheng shook his head and said in a serious tone: "No! I have to win first place once while Fang Xing is still present, otherwise the fans will say that I have never beaten Fang Xing.

"I am very confident about the theme of the next competition to sing Family Love. I will talk to Puxiang. If the effect of their production is not satisfactory, I will find another team to do it."

Hu Changqing nodded and agreed: "Okay, leave this matter to me."

…

the other side.

Fang Xing and Li Caiwei returned to the hotel.

Li Caiwei was in a very good mood and said, "Congratulations, you won the first place again."

"It's a pity that you only finished fourth."

"I'm very satisfied with the fourth place. The replacement singer has no advantage."

Li Caiwei is really satisfied with fourth place. As long as she is not eliminated and sings for a few more episodes, that is the best result for her.

"Whether it's fourth, there's room for improvement. Let's move forward in the next issue." Fang Xing said.

"The theme of the next issue is family love. This theme is not easy to sing. The song selection is one thing. It is even more difficult to sing it into the hearts of the audience." Li Caiwei reminded.

"We'll think about the song selection when we go back," Fang Xing said.

"Including mine?" Li Caiwei asked, turning her head and smiling charmingly.

"Don't worry. In the next issue, I'll give you a harder song." Fang Xing has already thought about giving Li Caiwei a song in the next issue.

Li Caiwei thought for a while and said: "I should be able to express the emotional aspects of songs about family love, without any restrictions on what kind of family love it is."

She already has a daughter. After becoming a mother, she feels family affection more deeply than those who have never experienced it.

"Well, we'll discuss the song selection when we return to the company." Fang Xing said, turning to look out the window, his thoughts drifting into the distance.

…

After recording the fifth issue of "Song", Fang Xing took the flight back to Donghai the next morning.

After resting for a long time, I played the piano casually in the piano room, recalling the longing for my parents and relatives in another world that I deeply felt in my heart.

I spent the day leisurely, playing the piano all afternoon with the sunset.

The next morning, I suddenly received a voice message from my father on WeChat: You haven’t been home for a long time, can you come home?

Hearing his father's voice in this life, Fang Xing's heart suddenly tightened.

I haven't been back home once in the past six months.

The reason why I didn't go back was because I was a little scared.

What's even more frightening is that my parents suddenly called me.

Whether it's the previous life or this life.

Fang Xing actually had the same fear, fearing that his parents would suddenly call him at a time other than the usual time for phone calls.

Because that probably means something happened at home.

After living for two lifetimes, Fang Xing knew the simple parents in this land very well.

They don't have great abilities, and they don't know what their children want, but they have their own way of thinking about their children.

When their children are working hard outside, they will find ways to solve any problems themselves and will not trouble their children unless it is absolutely necessary.

Except for a phone call every week or every month on a fixed night, I try not to disturb my children the rest of the time.

Also for this reason.

Every time Fang Xing receives a sudden call from his parents, he feels a little worried.

Fang Xing felt a little worried when he heard his father's voice, but the message was sent via WeChat, which at least meant that the matter was not that urgent.

However, Fang Xing still quickly replied to a WeChat message: I will take the high-speed rail back now. If I need money, I will transfer there first.

After a while, my father's voice came over again.

But this time it’s not the father’s voice, but the mother’s: Son, don’t be nervous, your family is doing well and there is no shortage of money. It’s just that you haven’t been home for a long time. I want to ask you when you will be back. Your dad can’t speak.

, I didn’t explain things clearly, don’t worry, come back when you have time.

Fang Xing is quite free now. He just finished recording the fifth issue of "Singing" and has a week's rest.

Now that my parents have taken the initiative to ask, it's time to go back and face it.

Moreover, Fang Xing always felt that there must be something going on at home, but his parents were not in a hurry, which meant it was not a big deal.

…

I took the high-speed rail at noon, then transferred to a bus and returned to my hometown of Baitang Town.

Following the memories in my mind, I returned to an old community.

Fang Xing's memories of this life began in this community.

According to his parents, he moved to this community when he was three years old.

After all, twenty years have passed.

Because it is an old community, the building is not high, only six floors, but there is no elevator.

Fang Xing remembered that his family lived on the fifth floor, and when he was a child, he had to go to the fifth floor several times every day to go to school.

Standing in front of the community, looking up at the old buildings, I felt a mixture of emotions.

Because the community is very old, the property management is quite chaotic.

There is basically no access control. There is only an old man on duty in the guard room, who is usually responsible for opening the door.

When Fang Xing came back this time, he didn't bring much with him, just a shoulder bag.

When I arrived at the gate of the community, I suddenly felt a little scared. I didn't know what expression to use to face my parents in this life.

I stood at the gate of the community for a long time, staring blankly at the fifth floor of a certain building.

The window with blue curtains is the room where I have lived for twenty years.

This feeling of being both familiar and unfamiliar is very complicated.

I don't know how long I have been standing there. If it were a community with strict property management, I might have suspected that Fang Xing was here to step in.

After all, I have lived here for twenty years.

Even though he was wearing a mask and a hat, some neighbors still thought it looked like him and ran to tell Father Fang.

Father Fang originally knew that his son would be back today, and he and his mother were busy at home.

I heard a neighbor say that there was a man outside who looked like his son.

Father Fang hurriedly ran downstairs and looked at the door of the community. He was stunned for a moment, and then shouted: "Fang Xing!"

Fang Xing recovered from his daze and turned to look at Father Fang, his eyes frozen there.

Father Fang hurriedly walked up, pulled Fang Xing away, and said, "Why are you standing here? We're home, and you're still standing there stupidly. Go upstairs quickly. Your mother has cooked a lot of your favorite dishes for you, so hurry up."

Fang Xing was stupidly pulled upstairs by Fang's father, entered the house, and stood a little awkwardly in this "home".

As soon as Fang's mother saw her son coming back, she hurriedly brought the stewed soup and cooked dishes from the kitchen to the table: "Quick, quick, quick, let's have a bowl of soup first and see if the child loses weight."

Fang Xing looked at his parents who were busy with things, and his nose suddenly felt a little sore.

At some point, my feelings for my parents from both lives overlapped unknowingly.

Fang Xing secretly decided in his heart: I will be filial to you. If there is a soul living in a body in another world, I also hope that he can be filial to his parents in that world.

After sitting down, Fang’s mother kept picking up food and said: “Now our family is famous in the community. Everyone says that a big star has come out of our family. Even the aunts in our dance team are not fashionable enough.

, even refused to dance to the songs sung by her son.”

While eating, the second episode of "The Voice" was playing on the TV.

I don’t know how many times they watched it. They pressed the remote control to switch to another program, but what popped up was "Stars of Tomorrow".
