Chapter 133 Hope and Courage

Seeing that Bai Qingxia's little face was still confused, Lu Yuanqiu, who was sitting on the steps, patiently explained: "In the last episode of Ultraman Tiga, he couldn't beat the monster, so children all over the world gave him their light. I understand the light here as hope and courage."

"And then Tiga won."

The girl seemed to remember something. She hugged her legs and slowly said to him, "It's like the sun, sharing its light with the moon, so the moon will also shine."

"As expected of a top student, you can even relate this to geography knowledge... But I seem to have heard you say this not long ago. When was it?"

Lu Yuanqiu tilted his head back, trying to recall what happened, but he couldn't remember anything.

Bai Qingxia looked down at the Ultra Mask on her knees, pursed her lips slightly and smiled. Although she remembered it, she did not remind her.

Young people always tend to forget many trivial things, probably because their minds are filled with the vast sky and sea. But it doesn’t matter, she just needs to remember these trivial things, because in her mind, Lu Yuanqiu is her sky and sea to some extent.

Lu Yuanqiu raised his hand and flicked her pink hairpin, then said with a smile: "I'll take you to watch Ultraman Tiga if we have a chance in the future."

Bai Qingxia nodded: "Okay."

"It's still early, and today is Saturday anyway, so let's walk around the area before going back."

"it is good."

"Why can you only say yes? Then take off your shoes and let me help you take another look at your feet. I have learned some new knowledge recently."

"not good……"

"Look, you're in a hurry. Why don't you just say it this time?"

As Lu Yuanqiu walked, he poked her arm with his hand. Bai Qingxia put her arms together in front of her, lowered her head, and let him bully her.

When she was outside, even though there were few people around, she was still much more reserved than when she was indoors.

Lu Yuanqiu had made up his mind that when he wanted to bully her, he would do it outside.

Indoors, this guy will really throw a tantrum in front of you.

At 4:30 in the morning, there were few cars on Anshan Road, but many shops on the roadside were still lit. The two of them wandered aimlessly on the roadside. Lu Yuanqiu felt the cool breeze and raised his hand to pinch her arm: "Are you wearing anything underneath?"

Bai Qingxia nodded: "Some people are wearing something."

"Find some time to buy some inner wear, sweaters, warm clothes, etc. You have money now, not that you don't have money."

"……Um."

This time her answer was not very decisive. Lu Yuanqiu judged that it probably went in one ear and out the other.

Since she doesn't want to buy, then find some time to take her out like last time and force her to spend money.

The two of them strolled outside a clothing store. Under the outdoor lights, there was a TV screen hanging above the glass window in front of them, and a ballet was playing on the screen.

Lu Yuanqiu stopped and looked at the screen. Seeing him stop, Bai Qingxia also stopped and looked up.

Lu Yuanqiu: "I remember your mother was a ballet dancer, and later became a dance teacher, right?"

Bai Qingxia nodded: "Yes."

After she finished speaking, she took a deep breath and shrugged her narrow shoulders.

My mother fainted during dance class one day... in front of her and other children.

At that time, all the other children were scared, but she was the only one who ran to the side in her Little Swan uniform, knelt on the ground crying and shook her mother's arms. Eventually, her crying attracted other teachers.

Lu Yuanqiu turned his head to look at her: "Then you should be able to dance ballet, right? Did your mother teach you?" This question brought Bai Qingxia back to her senses, and she looked up at the boy's eyes in a daze.

After a long while, she nodded: "Yes, my mother taught me."

But the word "dance" had been removed from my mother's life on the day she passed away. If my mother were still alive, would she be one of the people dancing in the cheerleading formation at the basketball game that day?

Probably.

The presence of her mother will most likely give her the courage to dance, because she really loved dancing when she was a child, just like her mother once loved this career.

Lu Yuanqiu was a little surprised. He looked at Bai Qingxia's pure face, which was white and translucent under the light from the window. He didn't expect that she could dance.

But it doesn't seem surprising that she can dance, after all, she has her mother.

"Do you still remember how to dance?"

"remember."

"There's no one here right now, so dance a little so I can admire you."

Lu Yuanqiu smiled expectantly and stepped aside, leaving the girl alone in the spotlight of the shop window.

But Bai Qingxia glanced at the scene next to her. Although the sky was still dark, there were few vehicles on the road, and there were few passers-by...but she still shook her head.

It was indeed a bit difficult for her to dance outside, Lu Yuanqiu thought to herself, but the atmosphere was already there and she really wanted to watch it!

He then moved his eyes down and saw the Ultraman Tiga mask in Bai Qingxia's hand.

At this moment, Lu Yuanqiu seemed to understand the meaning of "light".

He walked forward, took the mask from Bai Qingxia's hand, and put it on Bai Qingxia's face on his own initiative.

Fortunately, this girl has a small face, otherwise the mask would not be able to cover her face completely, Lu Yuanqiu thought amusedly in his heart.

After putting it on, Lu Yuanqiu put his hands on Bai Qingxia's shoulders and looked at the "Single Ponytail Tiga" in front of him with a smile.

"Bai Qingxia, do you remember what I just said? The little boy gave you his light. Do you remember what I just said, what does this light represent?"

Bai Qingxia remembered everything Lu Yuanqiu said.

So Bai Qingxia answered: "Hope and courage."

"Yes."

Lu Yuanqiu stroked his chin and stepped back, saying, "Maybe it was destined. The little boy gave you the mask so that when you dance with the mask on, you don't have to worry about anyone looking at you, because they can't see your face, they only know that you are Ultraman."

It seems to be true... With my face blocked, I feel much bolder.

In the two eye holes on the mask, the girl's beautiful eyes blinked her long eyelashes.

Lu Yuanqiu smiled and said, "Dance now. Since there is no one around, let me have the honor of being your audience for once."

Standing under the light of the window, "Single-Ponytail Tiga" lowered her head slightly, took a deep breath, and clenched and unclenched her two white fists at her sides. Then, the girl slowly raised her head.

She stretched out her right hand forward. On the screen in the window beside her, the dance image was replayed, and the ballet dancer inside began to dance again, performing the same movements as Bai Qingxia.

They both stood on tiptoes at the same time, opened their arms, and then slowly lowered their arms like blooming flowers.
