Chapter 1 Participating in an Idol Concert
Luo Li stood quietly backstage, her heart pounding like a drum. Her burning gaze was fixed on the incredibly familiar figure on stage—her idol, Zhou Zhou. The stage lights flickered rhythmically, each beam casting a dreamlike, radiant glow on her face. The deafening music roared in her ears, each note seeming to leap within her heart, creating ripples on the surface of her soul.
Zhou Zhou, the "Godfather of Love Songs," is a Taiwanese pop singer, music producer, and songwriter. His unique style has won him widespread popularity, and he is also Luo Li's favorite singer. However, his life has been full of hardships. At the peak of his career, his company was acquired, and the new owner did not favor him, forcing him to stop creating songs and move behind the scenes. Later, when he returned to the mainland to produce new songs for others, he discovered that his compositions had been made into pirated CDs. Only then did he realize how popular his work was, yet how little he had profited from it. To make matters worse, Zhou Zhou was diagnosed with a stomach ailment, causing him to lose 40 pounds. During his recovery, his appearance was difficult to restore. Due to the high cost of treatment and his lack of income, he even performed in commercial shows in small towns to make ends meet. Later, he attempted a comeback, but was eliminated from a music variety show by a young idol who had only debuted three years prior.
However, this year, Zhou Zhou held a concert tour, and this news, like the first ray of sunshine in spring, illuminated Luo Li's world. Luo Li, an obscure singer struggling on the fringes of the entertainment industry, has always maintained her insignificant popularity by covering other people's songs, and has never had a signature song of her own.
In her heart, Zhou Zhou was like a shining lighthouse in the distance, always guiding her. She had dreamed countless times of standing on the same stage as Zhou Zhou, even if only for a fleeting moment. When she received the invitation from Zhou Zhou's concert team to be a guest performer, Luo Li was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes. She felt as if she were dreaming; the deepest wish hidden in her heart for so long was suddenly about to come true.
Standing backstage at the concert, ready to go on stage, Luo Li's hands trembled slightly with nervousness. She took deep breaths, trying to calm herself down. She thought to herself, "This is Zhou Zhou's concert! I must perform well and not let my idol down." Listening to the deafening roar of the audience on stage, a roar of love and anticipation for Zhou Zhou, and knowing that she was about to step onto that stage and become a part of it, an indescribable sense of pride welled up within her.
As the prelude intensified, Zhou Zhou, dressed in a shimmering black suit, slowly walked onto the stage. His voice, like the brightest star in the night sky, instantly brought the atmosphere to its peak. Luo Li couldn't help but sway gently to the rhythm, screaming along with the surrounding fans, as if releasing all her passion in this moment. When the familiar melody of "Twilight" began, the entire audience joined in a massive sing-along. A surge of indescribable excitement welled up in Luo Li's heart. Her gaze was fixed on the slender figure standing to her right, completely enveloped by the power of the song, lost in its melody.
In that instant, her gaze suddenly fixed on the spotlight above Zhou Zhou's head. The spotlight, as if out of control, began to sway erratically, as if it would fall from the sky at any moment. Luo Li's heart skipped a beat. Without hesitation, she instantly sprinted towards Zhou Zhou. In that split second, she pushed Zhou Zhou away with all her might. However, the instant she pushed Zhou Zhou away, a piercing pain surged through her, engulfing her like a raging tide. Her vision went black, and she lost consciousness completely.
