Only After I Was Reborn Did I Realize That I Had Childhood Sweethearts Chapter 153: Blueberry Music Festival
The Blueberry Music Festival was first held in 2009 and invites renowned veteran rock bands, popular artists, folk bands, international folk groups, and indie musicians to perform every year, making it the most famous folk music event in the country.
In the performance area, which covered nearly 100,000 square ters, six stages were set up for the participating perforrs.
Although the performances had not officially started yet, the park was already packed with crowds of people and bustling with excitent.
After the group entered the park, they were quickly drawn to the festive atmosphere. Everyone looked around, took photos, and had a great ti.
On the way, musicians dressed in punk and avant-garde styles could be seen everywhere, posing for photos with their guitars.
These musicians all looked like in their 20s, while i Fang and his friends, who were around 15 years old could be considered very young.
Even Peng Xue, who usually dressed in a mature and avant-garde style, looked very youthful in this atmosphere.
My cousins band actually participated in the Blueberry Music Festival last year, and it was held in a different city.
They didnt co this year? Xia Yuan asked curiously. Ive heard songs from your cousins band, and I quite like them!
Peng Xue shook her head. The music festivals are getting bigger and bigger. They didnt receive an invitation this year because their popularity isnt enough.
Band culture was a niche culture in China, so opportunities to perform were truly very limited. Missing one chance to take the stage at a large music festival would greatly increase the difficulty of gaining popularity and fans.
Thats really not easy How are they doing now?
It was a sad matter for Peng Xue as well. My cousin said they plan to stick it out until the end of this year. If they cant find a record company to sign with and their band career doesnt show any progress, they plan to disband and find jobs at a factory.
That sounds very tough
But its okay. My cousin often tells that if you choose this path, you should be ntally prepared from the beginning. Its common for a band to not work out, and becoming famous is almost an unattainable dream. At least they tried hard in their youth, which is pretty good.
Peng Xue then pushed Xia Yuan forward and whispered, Ill take the others to another stage to watch a performance later. Take this opportunity.
What What opportunity? I also want to enjoy the music festival.
Xia Yuan had co to the music festival this ti to learn from those musicians, but Peng Xue was urging her to make a move on i Fang. It was a spur-of-the-mont move.
Oh my, I didnt say you cant enjoy the music festival properly, I ant for you and i Fang to enjoy it together!
Just then, the sound system on a stage ahead started playing, and everyone moved forward with the crowd. Taking advantage of the crowd, Peng Xue pushed Xia Yuan toward i Fang and joined everyone in moving forward.
Quick, lets go watch the band performance!
Xiaoxue, youre causing trouble again
Xia Yuan originally intended to call Peng Xue, but her voice was soon drowned out by the crowds.
Just as she was looking around helplessly, i Fang appeared from behind and grabbed her hand. He pulled her in front of him and shielded her protectively from the moving crowds.
Why are you alone?
Because of the noisy environnt, i Fang had to raise his voice to ask.
Um, there are too many people
Xia Yuan just leaned against i Fangs chest. Although it wasnt her original intention to attend the music festival this way, the feeling of being protected by him was indeed wonderful.
They took steps forward together, almost in an embracing posture, and after walking about a hundred ters, the crowd gradually beca less congested.
Seeing Xia Yuan limping slightly as she walked, i Fang pulled her to sit under a nearby tree stump.
Lets rest here for a while
i Fang noticed the shoe marks on Xia Yuans white sneakers. Did soone step on you just now?
Mhm The crowd was just too much.
Does it hurt?
Its okay, really, its nothing.
Xia Yuan brushed off the dust on her shoes. Ill just sit for a while.
Everyone really loves music.
Indeedyou can feel the frenzied atmosphere.
Xia Yuan remarked, I feel that music festivals like this are much more pure than those celebrity singer concerts.
Because what everyone truly likes is the bands songs, the bands skills, the bands live performance, not any other external elents. Since most of the audience attending music festivals are people who genuinely love music or are involved in making music.
Yeah, I can feel that By the way, which band performances are you most excited to see today? Lets make sure we dont miss them.
Of course, Im looking forward to the performance by Catcher in the Rye. I also want to hear the songs of Sumr Tribe, theyre a very famous girl band and theyve been really popular lately. I love listening to their songs online!
But my favorite is still the Natural Q! Theyre here today too, but unfortunately, the lead singer Waa Wei is pursuing a solo career now. I actually really like Waa Weis voice, its so sweet!
You must have heard their song, Couple Sitting in the Alley[1], its the song to that diaper comrcial, Jump-jump-jump/La, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la~~'
Xia Yuan kept talking non-stop about her favorite bands, occasionally humming a few short parts. i Fang kept staring at Xia Yuans face, making her feel a bit embarrassed.
W-Whats the matter? You keep staring at !
i Fang smiled slightly. I didnt know you knew so much about these bands You really love music.
Of course, I have my own interests too! Dont think I revolve around you every day! Narcissist Xia Yuan stood with her hands on her hips, looking proud.
i Fang remained silent and leaned in closer, gently tucking Xia Yuans hair behind her ear. Their faces were so close that Xia Yuan felt a little embarrassed.
But afterwards, she regretted it a bit.
Should I have taken the opportunity to kiss him just now?
At this ti, i Fang held Xia Yuans little hand in his arms, gazed at the blue sky, and said:
I dont think our Yuan Yuan is any worse than those bands you ntioned. I could tell when you did the guitar solo that dayYuan Yuan will definitely beco an amazing singer in the future.
Dont just focus on . You owe everyone a stage performance as well, dont forget that.
I rember, I rember.
i Fang smiled faintly, Im almost ready. The Autumn Art Festival is in mid-OctoberI will definitely sign up! But you also have to perform on stage, you cant just watch perform.
Then lets make a deal, we both sign up for the performance! Whoever doesnt go on stage is a little dog.
The sound of speakers in the distance caught i Fang and Xia Yuans attention.
Now, please welco the indie band from Taiwan, Natural Q, to give us a fantastic performance!
Natural Qs performance is about to begin!
We have to hurry over to watch
As Xia Yuan stood up, she almost stumbled and fell.
Whats wrong
Sitting for too long, I twisted my foot
Xia Yuan rubbed her ankle in distress, It wasnt sprained earlier ugh.
Since thats the case
Without hesitation, i Fang squatted down in front of Xia Yuan, Co on, Ill carry you to watch the performance!
But Xia Yuan wasnt as straightforward as Lin Youxi. In such a public place where they would definitely be seen, she restrained herself.
Its too embarrassing, I dont want to! I can walk by myself
Xia Yuan reluctantly took a few steps on her own, but the sprained foot was really painful.
Whats there to be embarrassed about?! If you keep dragging your feet, we wont be able to see the band performing in the front row!
i Fang urged Xia Yuan and she reluctantly climbed onto his back.
i Fang carried Xia Yuan as they jogged through the crowd and arrived near the stage for the overseas bands. Natural Q was performing their original song, Little Apple[2].
This is what its like at a concert venue! I cant see anything.
We arrived too late.
i Fang glanced at Xia Yuan, who was leaning forward on his back, trying hard to see, and then he put her down.
Whats are you tired?
No, ride on my shoulders so you can watch the performance.
That that thats too embarrassing!
Xia Yuan covered her face and muttered, I-I-I-I, I dont want to!
You wont be able to see anything like this! This is your favorite band.
i Fang reached out his hand towards Xia Yuan, Co on, co on, we finally ca to a music festival, you should enjoy it to the fullest!
Um
Xia Yuan cautiously straddled the back of i Fangs neck. Fortunately, she was wearing shorts today instead of a skirt, so it wasnt too embarrassing.
But, isnt this like letting Ah Fang grab my slightly chubby legs N-No its nothing.
Riding on i Fangs shoulders, Xia Yuan experienced the scenery from a high vantage point for the first ti. This different kind of viewing experience quickly made her excited. She waved her hands and swayed her head along with the music, humming along with the band.
Although i Fang couldnt see the live performance, he was also enjoying himself. He swayed his body in rhythm with Xia Yuan and humd along.
Its you / Wearing cute clothes coming to pick up
Beside / I cant see anything clearly
So great / Holding your warm hand blankly
Beside / Everyones faces are blushing red
In a mont
The little apple will soon blush red
