Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 686
In the face of the crowd’s chatter, Catherine smiled faintly and pressed on a key, making the banquet hall quiet down.
She adjusted the microphone and said in a pleasant voice, “This is a new song I composed. Today will be the first time I’m playing and singing it, so I hope everyone will give it a listen.”
“Is she insane? She even composed her own song.”
“Maybe she’s jealous of Cindy and wants to overshine her, but Cindy is a singer.”
“These days, every young lady from wealthy families wants to make their own songs. It’s an insult to music.”
Just as everyone whispered in one another’s ears, a burst of cheerful music accompanied by the sound of piano keys slowly sounded.
“I say to you, ‘stop right there’,
“The plane flies over the blue sky,
“I’m going on a journey,
“I’m going on a journey far away.
“Tears fell on my chest,
“This relationship, it won’t end,
“We’re chasing our dreams of the future together,
“This is not the end, it’s a new beginning.”
The crowd gradually quietened down and listened carefully to the new song. The cheerful song had a hint of sadness that alluded to a parting. It immediately reminded people of their university years where they had to bid farewell to their beloved so that they could chase after their own dreams.
It was a little sad and stirred their hearts.
Shaun looked at the glowing woman on the stage in disbelief.
