Scoot looked at Bieber and noticed that he didn't immediately take off his earphones. Instead, he replayed the last part of the video twice.
Bieber watched the man on the screen and the aurora flowing in the background, his eyes showing a complex mix of emotions: longing, resonance, and even an almost imperceptible envy.
Finally, Bieber slowly took off his earphones. The laughter of family and friends flowed back into his ears, but his world was quieter than ever.
The face, usually carrying a hint of defiance and weariness, at this moment only reflected a calmness after being profoundly touched.
Scoot knew him well; this wasn't just about liking a video. The song "Recovery," born out of chaos and struggle, was the softest, most hidden part of Justin's soul.
And now, a stranger from the other side of the world had, in a special way, responded to this song and his past struggles. It was like a conversation crossing time and space!
