Chapter 2904: Forgotten To Return
She knew very well that these plots were based on scripts. However, he sang so passionately as though the song completely revealed his true feelings. Every line was sung with strong emotions, bringing the character to life!
Yun Shishi pursed her lips tightly, but still, her shoulders shook uncontrollably.
She remembered that during a production team gathering, the director had asked Gu Xingze to sing a song.
Without hesitation, he sang “Passing By”.
Now that Gu Xingze’s song was once again played in the memorial hall, Yun Shishi finally broke down.
“Lost contact
Waking up from a dream
The tears that remained in the corners of the eyes
Are the traces of your leaving
Just when I wanted to cherish
Love has expired
I was too slow
To hold you back
If you’ve decided to leave
Why do you keep me here?
With no intention of being together
Why do you hold my hand
So you were only passing me by
But I mistook you for a rainbow falling from the sky.
Once upon a time you had passed me by
But you’ve forgotten to return…”
As the music played, the pall-bearers slowly brought Gu Xingze’s black coffin in.
In that instant, cries filled the memorial hall.
“Xingze… ”
She repeated his name in her heart. She could not see the coffin that was placed on the stage, but she could vaguely hear the sobbing coming from the side.
“Senior Xingze…”
“Sob, sob, sob, Xingze…”
Many people were calling out his name.
Yun Shishi, on the other hand, could not hear anything. Initially, she could make out some shadowy objects, but now, she could not see anything at all!
All the light in the entire heavens and the earth seemed to have been extinguished, and it was pitch black!
She could not hear a sound. Her world became so quiet that she could only hear her own breathing.
Xingze… so he was only a passer-by!
But she had thought that he was a rainbow that fell from the sky.
“Please return Xingze to me…”
As she thought of him and prayed silently, her fragile heart felt as though it was overwhelmed by tears!
“Return Xingze to me, return him to me…”
Yun Shishi became a little unsteady on her feet.
The memorial service began.
Huanyu’s top management went on stage to give their speech.
As for the Gu family, naturally, it was inconvenient for Gu Jinglian to make an appearance. Hence, Qin Zhou was in charge of the memorial service.
Qin Zhou walked onto the stage without any prompting script. He first took a long look at the black coffin before he took in a deep breath and said with tears in his eyes, “In all my ten odd years of having known Xingze, I’ve never regretted more. I’ve never really been fully there for him. I’ve always thought of myself as his close family, but as his family, I didn’t cherish every second I spent with him!”
There was another round of sobbing below the stage.
“Xingze had always been busy filming, he was the consummate professional who was ever serious about his work. Over the years of filming, his body has suffered from many illnesses. He didn’t have any family around him and grew up overseas. In private, he is a man of few words. However… it was only when he left this world that I realized how lonely he was. I initially had hoped that after he left the entertainment industry, he’d be able to receive treatment in America and live a more ideal life. However, not all stories have a good ending! However, I hope that today, in these last moments, he’ll leave good memories for everyone!”
His youth was like water, that came and went like a rapid tide.
Gu Xingze’s departure came without any warning, and the way he left was sad and lonely.
