Although the song on the radio had stopped, listeners were still deeply immersed in their feelings of sorrow and emotion, savoring the beautiful dance of the red-crowned cranes they had just witnessed.
Some were even reluctant to part with the moment and opened their players to search for the song, listening to it carefully one more time.
Fang Ye watched the red-crowned cranes soaring above the lake and was silent for a long while without saying anything.
After a while, as his emotions eased, he asked, "How about it, does listening to this song feel different than when you were a child?"
"Yeah, I used to be really scared when I heard this song as a kid! I thought the girl's death was so tragic, but now I can understand the emotions behind it."
