Chapter 257: Resonance, Miracle, Heartbreak, Kiss

The stage was shrouded in a dreamlike blue light, with stars twinkling on the massive LED screen.

Su Yu stood silently with her back to the audience, as if she were amidst the vast starry sky.

Her gown outlined her perfect curves, and her long hair cascaded down her slender back like a waterfall, swaying gently in the breeze.

The music seemed to drift in from the distant horizon, growing from faint to powerful.

As Su Yu slowly turned, the lighting shifted, her figure appearing and disappearing within the radiance, looking mysterious and enchanting.

Soon, her stunning face appeared on the giant screen.

The corners of her mouth lifted slightly; her makeup was exquisite and unique, and her eyes revealed an ethereal, profound, and confident gaze.

She tilted her head slightly, scanning her surroundings, her thick hair fluttering and shimmering in the light.

Paired with her sexy, fluid figure and sparkling gown, she looked like a goddess descending, bringing an indescribable sense of awe.

The entire stadium erupted in thunderous cheers, screams, and shouts, as if they would shatter the dome of the arena.

After a moment, the music swelled.

A soft and moving melody flowed slowly through the empty venue, like the first light of dawn.

She raised the microphone in her hand and parted her lips.

"BGM: In the melodies of life, I found a rhyme..."

Her singing voice was like music from heaven—clear, pure, and full of power.

Every note was like a flower blooming in the air, fragrant and refreshing to the soul.

The "2023 Su Yu Has a Fate with You" concert thus began its magnificent prologue.

Wearing 【Tang Song's Glasses】, Tang Song had excellent vision.

He stood in a dim corner at the side of the stage, listening to "Love Of Song," which Cheng Qiuqiu had once sung, his gaze fixed blankly on the dazzling 【Female Star】 on stage.

The surrounding scene became dreamlike and blurred.

She stood at the intersection of illusion and reality, shining brightly, full of radiance.

Compared to Mo Xiang Wan, he undoubtedly had more contact with the 【Female Star】 and understood her better.

This was the 【Superstar Su Yu】 he had personally cultivated.

Standing on stage at this moment, she was vivid and full of emotion.

As the song progressed, Su Yu paced lightly on the stage, her eyes filled with tenderness and attachment, as if telling a romantic story.

He cupped his hands around his mouth like a megaphone and shouted loudly along with the surrounding fans.

He was immersed in the grand and fanatical atmosphere of the concert.

After "Love Of Song" ended, a cheerful, rhythmic song followed.

With the music, Su Yu began to pace and dance lightly.

Her waist was flexible, her sense of rhythm impeccable, driving the enthusiasm of the entire audience.

Her occasional spins were like a fairy dancing.

"Ahhh! Su Yu! Su Yu! I love you!"

Zhang Jiahong waved the glow stick in her hand, her face flushed with excitement, her body trembling slightly.

This was the living, breathing Su Yu!

Her idol of many years was appearing before her eyes, seemingly within reach; her heart felt like it was about to jump out!

As one song ended, the giant screen changed again.

Brilliant pillars of light shot from the center of the stage toward the dome, followed by countless colorful beams weaving together from all directions, illuminating the entire venue.

"Ahhh! Lingling, look! It's so beautiful!" Zhang Jiahong hugged Yao Lingling beside her, shaking her body excitedly.

Yao Lingling pushed her away and said loudly, "Jiahong, aren't you being a bit too excited? I'm worried you'll faint in a while."

Zhang Jiahong pointed to someone in front and said, "I'm nothing compared to her. Look at her, what she's become—that's a true die-hard fan."

Yao Lingling leaned forward to look in the direction she was pointing; it was a girl wearing a purple support T-shirt.

From her direction, she could just see the girl's profile.

Her features were sharp, her look sexy and fiery, full of a 'cool sister' aura.

At this moment, she was tearful with her hands held high, indeed more exaggerated than Zhang Jiahong.

Yao Lingling's gaze finally focused on the other person's upper body, and she couldn't help but sigh, "Her chest is so big, I'm so envious!"

Zhang Jiahong laughed, "Don't be insecure. After all, you have a big butt; maybe Senior Tang Song likes your type?"

"Ah!" Yao Lingling's face instantly flushed red, and she tapped her on the head with her glow stick. "What nonsense are you talking about! What does this have to do with Tang Song?"

"Hehe~" Zhang Jiahong glanced at her. "Ever since you entered the venue, you've been looking around eagerly—isn't it just to see where the senior is? Besides, I heard from Damn Minmin that you ran home and made several sets of clothes for him. Senior Tang Song even gave you such a valuable ticket as a reward. If you tell me there's nothing between you two, I won't believe it."

Yao Lingling stiffened her neck and said, "That's because the senior is a good person! He's good to all of us. Isn't he also going to introduce a job to you?"

"Fine, fine, you timid Yao Lingling." Zhang Jiahong smiled at her and continued, "As for introducing a job, let's forget it for now. I've already told the senior myself. With my current level, going to a formal, large company would definitely be holding them back. Not only would I fail to live up to the senior's kindness, but I couldn't handle that kind of blow myself. Better to wait until I've studied hard for a while and at least caught up to Damn Minmin before jumping ship."

Fashion design relies heavily on talent and inspiration. She had resigned to take the civil service exam not long after graduating because she felt her talent was insufficient and she didn't want to stay at the company and be wronged.

The reason she didn't dare accept Tang Song's kindness was also because she was afraid of disappointing this senior.

She cherished this alumni friendship and their relationship as friends.

Yao Lingling nodded thoughtfully, "Alright, Jiahong, I think you should be more confident."

"Alright, let's not talk about this. Today is a great day, we must be happy to the end! Damn Minmin was just asking about our feelings in the group; I'll send her the video later to stimulate her."

On stage, layers of dreamlike pink-purple smoke began to rise, and within the smoke, a giant folding fan made of light slowly opened.

Su Yu's figure appeared once again.

Looking down from high above, the entire venue looked like an inverted, brilliant galaxy.

Su Yu stood on a nebula, romantic and beautiful.

She lowered her head slightly, her body swaying gently with the music, her dance graceful and affectionate.

The entire venue turned into an ocean of joy; everyone was conquered by Su Yu's charm and singing, wholeheartedly immersed in this audio-visual feast of music.

"Lingling! Give me yours too." Zhang Jiahong snatched the glow stick from Yao Lingling's hand, waved her arms vigorously, and cheered loudly with excitement.

Yao Lingling looked at her best friend who had fallen into madness, and was also influenced by the atmosphere of the scene.

As an art student, she also loved singing, and her level was quite good; she had specifically studied it for a while.

Listening to Su Yu's singing live, she could understand her power and terror even more.

Her breath, vocalization, and technique were flawless; her vocal timbre, live performance, and infectiousness were all maxed out.

The key was that her stamina was also super good; even after singing multiple songs in a row and dancing while singing, she could still perform perfectly.

Tang Song looked at the versatile female star on stage, listening to her singing that was sometimes intense and sometimes romantic, his body swaying gently with the melody, his face filled with smiles and satisfaction.

Such a concert, such a Su Yu, made him feel a great sense of achievement.

A strong white spotlight hit the center of the stage, and the lift rose slowly from below; Su Yu, who had changed into a new look, appeared and disappeared in the light.

Her hair shimmered, her posture tall and graceful.

Her right hand held a guitar, and her left hand waved gently at the audience.

The low roar of the bass sounded like a sharp blade piercing the void, resounding through the vast stadium, instantly lifting the audience's emotions.

"Whoa~~" The cheers came like a tsunami, one wave higher than the next.

Tang Song's spirit was shaken; it was rock.

Su Yu in the game was a rock fan herself.

Her bass, guitar, and drum skills were all very high.

Later, under the cultivation of the game system, they all became top-tier.

As the bass solo ended, dense drum beats, crisp piano sounds...

Various instruments cut in perfectly.

Su Yu lowered her head slightly, her slender fingers plucking the strings gently, and began to sing her self-composed rock hit, "Indulgence."

"BGM: Wandering in the hustle and bustle of the city, the heart is bound and can't find an exit, the light of dreams appears and disappears..."

The intense rhythm and sound waves gave the audience goosebumps, their heartbeats accelerated, their blood boiling.

Then came even more fanatical cheers.

The charm of rock is mainly in the live performance.

The sound of live instruments, especially the real sound impact, roar, and shock of electric guitars, bass, and drums, is difficult to fully feel through headphones or home audio.

And this was Su Yu's rock live show; her super strong musical talent often led to improvised playing segments, changing rhythms and melodies, etc.

These improvisational elements made every one of her rock performances unique, full of unpredictability and freshness.

The fans in the front row screamed crazily, their voices even becoming a bit hoarse.

Tang Song was immersed in the rhythm of the music, moved by the emotions in her singing.

On stage.

Su Yu's eyes were focused and fiery, her playing flowing like clouds and water, every note full of power and emotion.

She was clearly very happy today; her stage presence was free and easy, and she even took the initiative to wave and interact with fans.

With the gradually fading guitar sound, the song reached its end.

After Su Yu greeted the fans, she disappeared from the stage.

Tang Song took a deep breath and strode toward the backstage.

Next, there would be guest performers, and some stage art would be interspersed, mainly to let Su Yu get enough rest to cope with the subsequent singing.

And he was also prepared to meet this 【Female Star】 during this gap and complete their first intimate contact.

By the way, he was preparing for the upcoming "Dream Echo."

For this, he was particularly looking forward to it.

"Ahhh! I love Su Yu to death!"

"Mua~ mua~"

Xu Qing excitedly hugged her best friend and kissed her face repeatedly to vent the excitement in her heart.

Shen Yu Yan stopped waving her glow stick, slapped her little butt a few times, and wiped the saliva off her face. "Hey, hey, hey! Pay attention to your influence; this is a concert venue!"

"What's wrong with that? We can't kiss Su Yu, so I'll just find you to replace her."

As she spoke, Xu Qing pounced on Shen Yu Yan again, and they started playing and fighting.

On stage, the guest singer appeared, and the venue erupted in enthusiastic cheers again.

It was a superstar diva who had been popular for many years.

Shen Yu Yan and Xu Qing both grew up listening to her songs.

The two held hands and sang along with the music.

Lin Empress Mu Xue beside them put down her phone, looking at the two who were inseparable, a thoughtful expression appearing on her face.

Just now, while the two were listening to the concert, their mouths hadn't stopped much.

She also roughly knew the background of these two.

They were university alumni of Tang Song.

That Qingqing had a very good relationship with Tang Song; the computer she and Tang Song assembled last time was entrusted to her to buy.

And it was Tang Song who took the initiative to send her a concert invitation.

That Sister Yan Yan looked like a campus beauty at first glance; maybe she was even Tang Song's 'white moonlight'!

The alumni relationship, plus the best friend combo—the competitiveness was skyrocketing!

Maybe even the beautician friend would be suppressed.

But fortunately, she could also stage a wave of best-friend affection with Qian Qian.

If that didn't work, she could still hang He Liting on it.

Hmph hmph! Stack the buffs; I don't believe I can't suppress them!

Thinking of this, Lin Empress Mu Xue puffed out her chest, her gaze becoming full of fighting spirit.

Shen Yu Yan beside her frowned, subconsciously glancing at the beautiful woman next to her.

She always felt that the other party was a bit strange.

In the exclusive backstage lounge.

A large vanity mirror occupied the center position, covered with all kinds of cosmetics and makeup tools.

In the corner, there was also a separate dressing room, with gorgeous fashion pieces hanging on the racks outside.

The stylist and makeup artist team were busy in a tense and orderly manner.

"Xiaoxi, notify the technical staff to check the lighting equipment to ensure the best effect for the upcoming performance."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

"Sister Yu, do you think this eye makeup is okay? It's a bit fresher and more transparent than the last one."

"It's fine. The blush is a bit heavy; make it lighter."

"Sister Yu, let me help you change your earrings and hair accessories."

Su Yu sat in the chair, eyes slightly closed, her hands clenching and unclenching.

There were too many people at the scene, and with the dim lights in the audience, she couldn't see Tang Song's figure at all.

But just knowing he was there was enough.

This was the first time he had listened to her concert live, and she was going to sing a new song he wrote next.

She had to present her best state.

"Sister Yu, the styling is done; see if you are satisfied."

Su Yu opened her eyes, looked at herself in the mirror, and nodded with satisfaction, "It's fine."

After speaking, she stood up and paced to the dressing room.

The assistant hurriedly sent the fashion pieces in to assist Su Yu in changing.

The door to the lounge was pushed open gently.

Secretary Li whispered a few words, signaling everyone to leave immediately.

The crowd didn't dare to ask more and ran out of the lounge.

"Tang Zong, it's arranged. Xiaoyu is in the lounge now; she's already done with her styling and you can go over." Mo Xiang Wan put down her phone and looked at Tang Song beside her, her gaze faintly excited.

Although she really wanted to follow and see Su Yu's reaction with her own eyes, considering the consequences of doing so, she gave up.

This kind of historic moment should belong to Su Yu alone.

She could only look forward to their upcoming performance together on stage.

"Thank you." Tang Song pursed his somewhat dry lips, picked up the mineral water, took a sip, and stood up from the sofa.

He opened the office door and walked toward the lounge.

As that door appeared in his line of sight, a surge of hot blood rushed to his head, and his heartbeat began to accelerate.

He didn't look at the black-suited security guards around him; standing outside the door for a moment of silence, Tang Song reached out and gripped the doorknob.

He didn't know what posture to use to face her, but a strong desire drove him to push open the door.

The bright lights inside the lounge penetrated into the corridor through the crack in the door.

Secretary Li, waiting on the side, whispered, "Tang Zong, Director Su is in the dressing room; she just finished changing into her performance costume."

"Okay, thank you." Tang Song nodded lightly.

Secretary Li bowed and backed out of the room.

Tang Song took a deep breath, pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose, ruffled his bangs in the vanity mirror, and strode toward the dressing room in the corner.

Su Yu, the perfect female star who originally only existed in the game, had now appeared in the real world along with the game's arrival.

"Creak—" The dressing room door was pulled open gently.

A faint fragrance rushed toward him, and Tang Song's gaze turned to Su Yu's figure.

Su Yu stood under the fill light, facing the mirror, adjusting her ornaments.

Noticing the movement at the door, she turned gracefully to look over.

The snow-white long dress was as light as a cloud, the skirt covered with brilliant diamonds and exquisite lace, shimmering with dreamlike light.

Her features appeared exceptionally exquisite under the reflection of the lights; her skin was like snow, and her eyes were as bright as stars.

Her long hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall, a few strands gently brushing against her fair shoulders.

She stood there like a spirit deer drinking from a spring and chewing grass on the morning meadow.

Fresh, elegant, full of spirit, and ethereal like a fairy.

She looked fragrant, cool, and clean.

It seemed she would never be dirty, never sweat, and certainly never go to the bathroom.

Tang Song's heart shrank suddenly, and then began to beat rapidly like drumbeats.

"Thump—thump—"

He took a step forward and stood in front of her.

The moment his gaze touched her, the expression on Su Yu's face froze.

Her eyes widened a little, just staring blankly at him who had appeared suddenly.

Every subtle expression of hers, every trace of her lively eyes, was full of indescribable charm.

The scene seemed to be frozen in time, beautiful enough to break one's heart.

Tang Song looked at this peerless female star and said softly, "Miss Su Yu, long time no see."

His voice seemed to possess some other magic, letting time flow again.

Su Yu's eye circles began to turn red rapidly, and crystal-clear teardrops condensed on her thick eyelashes.

Like dew on grass leaves in the morning, swaying and about to fall.

She bit her full lips gently, trying hard to suppress the sound of crying.

Soon, tears slid slowly down her fair cheeks, leaving two clear tear tracks.

Like pearls sliding across flawless jade, shattering on the ground, refracting brilliant starlight under the lights, and also stinging his heart.

? CO

Tang Song moved forward again.

The distance between them was very, very close.

Close enough for Tang Song to see the texture of her eye makeup.

She said nothing and did nothing, but the eyes looking at him were filled with intense emotion.

How sad must a person be to have such eyes?

He didn't know, but he felt very heartbroken.

The game had entered reality.

He had gained a lot, so naturally, he should also bear this guilt and responsibility.

It was his appearance that lifted her from the low valley, made her shine brightly, and also took away her green and pure heart.

She grew up strictly according to the plan he formulated.

Relying on 100% effort, she became a top superstar and also helped Tang Zong Entertainment become a leader in the industry.

Then he began to disappear from her world.

Only the occasional game notification reminded him that it was time to maintain the favorability, after which he would send a gift or a greeting.

Su Yu gripped her fists tightly, looking into Tang Song's eyes, her eyes shimmering with tears as she choked out, "Long time no see... Tang Song. The last time we met was June 20, 2020. It has been exactly 3 years, 1095 days."

"I'm sorry." Tang Song lowered his gaze slightly, and tears slid down his face as well.

The people listening to the story were all crying; how sad must the person in the story be?

Su Yu's crystalline pupils trembled, and her tears stopped instantly.

She parted her red, full lips, looking nervous and incredulous.

Her scattered hair, slightly trembling lips, and eyelashes soaked with tears composed a scene that was heartbreaking yet incomparably beautiful.

The rich fragrance on her was intoxicating, and the panic in her eyes was heart-wrenching.

Tang Song held her pretty face, warm as white porcelain, in his hands, wiped away her tear stains with his fingers, and lowered his head to kiss her lips.

It was cool and moist, carrying a bitter, salty taste—those were her undried tears.

Following that came endless sweetness and tenderness.

Su Yu's breathing became rapid and chaotic, her eyes fluttered violently, and her warm breath brushed against his face.

Everything around them seemed to stand still, with only the sound of heartbeats and breathing intertwined.

"Swish!" The system light screen unfolded before him.

【June 20, 2023, backstage at the Yancheng Olympic Sports Center concert, you had close contact with the "Celebrity - Su Yu" you raised in the game. She is no longer the virtual image made of data and code in the game, but a real existence of flesh, blood, soul, and emotion.】

【You feel an unprecedented connection and resonance, and you truly experience a miracle that transcends dimensions. The powerful satisfaction, guilt, heartache, and dreamlike feeling make your mind surge.】

【Your state of mind has undergone significant growth.】

【Your Charm +1, you have obtained the special item "Strengthening Crystal."】

Tang Song ignored the system prompts and used his intent to close the system interface.

He continued to look into her eyes, feeling her warmth and sweetness.

The entire space was enveloped in soft light, and her face appeared even more moving under the reflection of the tears and the light.

Su Yu's eyes were gradually stained with a thin mist, and her stiff arms lifted to gently wrap around his neck.

She responded shyly and tenderly.

Like a wounded little deer seeking its final refuge.

If this is a dream, then I am willing to never wake up.

A long time passed.

Their lips and teeth gradually separated.

Panting heavily, Su Yu greedily breathed in the scent on him.

The countless times of being kept at a distance had caused her heart to be repeatedly pulled, leaving her anxious and insecure.

Now that she finally held him and kissed him, it felt like a dream.

However, she was Su Yu after all, a true superstar, and she quickly recognized reality.

She slowly opened her eyes, looked at Tang Song, and let out a soft, low hum from her nasal cavity.

Immediately after, she kissed him again, gently and obsessively sucking on his lips.

Her gaze was intoxicated, and the sound of her heartbeat never disappeared.
