The moment he finished his performance, thunderous applause rang out from the stage, and the judges and teachers on stage unanimously expressed their approval of him. He could barely contain the tears that were welling up inside him, and the moment he raised his head, a smile bloomed on his face, as warm as the spring breeze.

He was born into a wealthy family, but because of his parents' disagreement, he became extraordinarily introverted and silent when he should have grown up happily. This time, his father told him a thousand words of persuasion and used all the words to inspire him, just to let him participate in this talent show.

After a battle of the minds like a world war, he finally gathered his courage and went to Changsha with his talent. The wind in Changsha stroked his shaggy hair, the sun gently shone on his face, and the weeping willow on the roadside swayed its soft branches. All of this seemed to be cheering him on. He looked at the beautiful scenery of Changsha and secretly cheered himself up: It's no big deal, it's just a song, right? I can do it!

It was good that he dared to do so. When he was in school, he was often bullied by his classmates because he was weak. Almost every time he came home he was either scolded to tears or beaten to a pulp. It was because of the bullying he received at school that he became timid, inferior, and even tried to hide for a time ......

It wasn't long before it was his turn to go on stage. The moment he stood on the stage, his heart was still very nervous. After all, suddenly being watched by so many pairs of eyes all of a sudden, he would still feel a little uncomfortable. "Uh, hello everyone, I'm H from W Conservatory of Music." He briefly introduced himself. After that. He then slowly sat down in front of the electronic piano and adjusted his mind. Taking a deep breath, he raised his hand and his fingertips jumped on the keys ......

When the music started to play, the one who was shut up in his shell began to release ...... him as if he had entered that world of music that belonged only to him and heard the birds and flowers of this world. The melody that was so familiar that it couldn't be more familiar took him to rest by the stream, explore the woods, and pick the flowers, allowing him to feel with his body and mind every flower and bird, every grass and tree in the place. He sang a wordless song this time, without a single lyric in the whole song. And he shocked all the judges and the audience with this song that was too weird to be true. The soprano part of the song could make people seem to see a transcendental world; the alto part of the song gave a warm and comfortable feeling; the bass part of the song gave an illusion of instrumental accompaniment!

When the song was finished, he stood up and bowed deeply to the judges and the audience. The stage was silent at first, so quiet that he thought, was he not singing well enough, or his song was also really strange somehow? Thinking about this, a bead of sweat could not help but trickle down his face. However, just at this time, the judge's teacher led the applause. The applause was full of the recognition of the judges and the audience.

At first, he heard the applause, he was stunned, and when he would come to his senses, he showed a rare smile. This smile is so bright, so beautiful. This smile hid the story of his demons being defeated by himself after all, and the story of his breakthrough!
