Rebirth: Starting with 10 Billion Us Dollars

146: Chapter 146 The Price of LoveChen Mo held Su Yingxue’s hand and walked slowly toward the stage.

Jonathan Lee stood on the stage, looking at the highly recognizable face after the mask was removed, his eyes full of shock, screaming in his heart:

”This is simply too outrageous. I just wanted to randomly select an audience member to interact with, but with a casual point, I picked Chen Mo, the helm of Tianxing Group! This is a legendary top-tier tycoon!”

Su Yingxue was led by Chen Mo to the backstage entrance at the side of the stage, where the view was good and it was safe. After Chen Mo gave her a few words of advice, he stepped onto the stage.

The security staff and guards from the organizers nearby, after learning Chen Mo’s identity, immediately surrounded Su Yingxue to protect her.

This was someone close to President Chen; if anything went even slightly wrong, they wouldn’t be able to bear the responsibility.

Just as Chen Mo stepped onto the stage, Jonathan Lee hurried forward, proactively extending his hand and saying, overwhelmed by the favor:

”President Chen, please excuse my lack of manners. I didn’t expect to actually invite you onto the stage. It is truly an honor!”

Chen Mo reached out and lightly shook his hand, saying with a smile:

”Mr. Lee, you’re too polite. At this moment, I’m just an ordinary audience member here to listen to music.”

Seeing this, the cheers and applause from the audience below grew louder, and the bullet comments in the livestream were also densely packed.

After Jonathan Lee calmed his emotions, he held the microphone and said with a smile:

”To be honest, I still haven’t recovered yet. Being able to invite a distinguished guest like President Chen onto the stage is my biggest surprise today and my honor.

So, President Chen, which song would you like to sing with me?”

Chen Mo replied:

”Then let’s do ’the price of love’.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a soft gasp rose from the audience.

Jonathan Lee smiled slightly and said to the audience:

”It seems President Chen is also a connoisseur of music. This song, ’the price of love’, is a song I wrote for my elder sister Sylvia Chang back then. This song holds the youth and insights of too many people!”

The song ’the price of love’ has never been a simple love song. It speaks of growth and letting go in life; it is the obsession of youthful ignorance, the free-spiritedness after experiencing the world, and even more, the transparency of letting go of the past and reconciling with oneself. The lyrics hide the youthful regrets and growth insights of several generations.

As Jonathan Lee’s voice faded, the melodious prelude slowly began to play.

Jonathan Lee’s mellow and weathered voice rang out, and the familiar lyrics reached everyone’s ears:

”Do you still remember the dreams of your youth, like a flower that never withers?”

Immediately after, Chen Mo took the microphone. The moment he opened his mouth, the entire audience was shocked!

He possessed Grandmaster-level singing skills. His voice was deep and magnetic, every word and phrase piercing the heart. There was a transparency of having experienced the world within the tenderness; every line of the lyrics was sung into people’s hearts, even more infectious than Jonathan Lee’s rendition.

”Once felt sad and shed tears, once felt dejected and heartbroken, this is the price of love.”

”Maybe I still think of her occasionally, and inevitably worry about her at times.”

”Just treat her as an old friend; she still makes my heart ache, and still makes me care.”

When the melody of this song slowed down, it was as if the regrets hidden deep in the heart for many years were being slowly spread out.

It sang of those youthful days that can never be returned to, the heartache of unrequited love, and the helplessness of clearly being unable to let go yet having to pretend to be at peace;

Hidden within the lyrics were unspoken longings, unfulfilled pasts, and those lingering grievances that could only be kept in the depths of the heart;

It turned out that all the heartbeat and persistence would eventually turn into a soft sigh, becoming the bitterest mark in the passage of time.

The audience below didn’t expect that as a big shot, Chen Mo’s singing skills would actually be better than top-tier singers.

Immediately, the audience erupted in deafening cheers and screams. Everyone waved their hands, singing along softly with the melody. Many people even had tears welling in their eyes, completely immersed in the song ’the price of love’.

In the Tianxing Official livestream, the bullet comments were overwhelming:

”Whoa! Did I hear that right? President Chen can actually sing! And he sings so well!”

”These singing skills! They’re too amazing! It has more flavor than the original singer, it really hits home!”

”’Do you still remember the dreams of your youth’—that line directly broke my defenses. Just how many more surprises does President Chen have!”

”Being a business tycoon is one thing, but singing with such infection? God is practically chasing him to feed him talent!”

”Earlier I was wondering if President Chen could sing, but the moment he opened his mouth, he attained godhood!”

”Family, who understands this! Single-track loop scheduled, President Chen should just debut already!”

”The security guards are all surrounding the young lady next to President Chen. As expected, the people around the big boss all have status!”

”The young lady is watching quietly from backstage; the scene is so gentle. She and President Chen are a perfect match!”

”’Once felt sad and shed tears, once felt dejected and heartbroken’—the moment President Chen sang that, I got goosebumps!”

”I originally came to see Jonathan Lee, but ended up becoming a fan of President Chen. These singing skills are better than top-tier singers!”

”Tianxing boss’s hidden skill unlocked! Singing is so awesome, is there anything you can’t do?”

”More infectious than the original singer. With President Chen’s voice, I’m going to loop his version a hundred times!”

”The audience at the scene is so lucky! To hear President Chen sing ’the price of love’ live, I could die with no regrets!”

”Every line of the lyrics pierces the heart. President Chen’s singing skills are truly too good; I’ve completely fallen for him!”

”Who would have thought President Chen not only knows how to build a career but also sings so brilliantly? He’s a confirmed all-rounder tycoon!”

”’the price of love’ has been sung to a new height. President Chen’s performance just stunned the whole place!”

”The number of people in the livestream is starting to skyrocket! They’re all here to hear President Chen sing; the prestige is maxed out!”

”’Once felt dejected and heartbroken, this is the price of love’—it sang directly into my heart!”

As the song ended, the melody lingered in the air, and the applause and cheers from the audience lasted for a long time.

Jonathan Lee looked at Chen Mo, his eyes full of shock, admiration, and respect, as he remarked sincerely:

”President Chen, your singing skills have truly made me see you in a new light. It was too stunning!”

Chen Mo smiled and nodded, then turned and walked off the stage.

Chen Mo came to Su Yingxue’s side and said:

”How did I sing?”

Su Yingxue smiled and nodded in reply:

”Very well, your singing is the best I’ve ever heard!”

Chen Mo smiled:

”Let’s go, let’s go home!”

”Okay!”
