DAVM Chapter 108.2

She was willing to learn dancing from Aunt Si Tian because she liked to be with Aunt Si Tian and Aunt Si Tian would not laugh at her.

“Xiaoshi, you have to have more confidence in yourself. Even if you don’t dance well, nothing will happen. I don’t think the uncles and aunts present will laugh at you.”

Si Tian felt that Mu Xiaoshi was sometimes too sensitive and fragile, like a soap bubble that had just been blown out.

But there were many sharp thorns in this world, and the bubbles would burst if you were not careful. She hopes that Mu Xiaoshi can be brave enough to protect herself.

Mu Xiaoshi hesitated.

Si Tian said: “We will all cheer for you down there.”

“You see, everyone is preparing for the performance. What do you want to perform, Xiaoshi?”

Mu Xiaoshi looked around. As Si Tian said, every child’s face was beaming with joy.

This gave Mu Xiaoshi some motivation. She was not alone on stage to perform, but Mu Xiaoshi still didn’t want to dance. She asked, “Can I sing?”

“Of course.” Si Tian said, “Xiaoshi’s voice is very nice when she talks, so she must be good at singing.”

Mu Xiaoshi, who was rarely praised, was a little shy. Although her voice was small, her tone was serious: “I will work hard.”

This look was not like participating in a small temporary performance, but more like a large-scale children’s performance. Si Tian curved his lips and smiled: “Don’t be too stressed, Xiaoshi.”

Mu Xiaoshi raised her head and looked at Le Zhizhen: “Auntie, I will work hard this time and not get last place.”

Le Zhizhen smiled: “Okay, Auntie believes in you. Come on!”

Si Tian’s heart moved slightly. She felt that the pressure Mu Xiaoshi was putting on herself was a bit too much at the moment.

In this variety show, apart from her own children, Si Tian cares most about Mu Xiaoshi. Firstly, Mu Xiaoshi is her mission, and secondly, Mu Xiaoshi has a high affection for her.

She would observe Mu Xiaoshi from time to time. Mu Xiaoshi was not like a child from a wealthy family at all. She is shy, reserved, and always lacks confidence in doing things.

But she is easily encouraged, and she can be happy for a long time when she hears praise from others.

Mu Xiaoshi was practicing singing next to her. Si Tian took two steps closer to Le Zhizhen, lowered her voice, and said, “Xiaoshi looks quite nervous.”

Le Zhizhen glanced at Mu Xiaoshi, nodded, and said in a troubled tone, “Yes, Xiaoshi is timid. I brought her on the show because I hope to make her more confident.”

“Xiaoshi likes you very much. She always mentions you in my ears.” Le Zhizhen really thought that if it weren’t for Si Tian at that time, Mu Xiaoshi might not be willing to participate in the show with her.

Si Tian: “I also care about Xiaoshi.”

After a pause, Si Tian said again: “I think Xiaoshi may need our encouragement more now.”

In fact, Si Tian didn’t want to say too much. On the surface, she had nothing to do with Mu Xiaoshi, and Le Zhizhen was really Mu Xiaoshi’s Aunt.

Si Tian herself was not a parenting expert, and it was difficult for her to intervene in matters of emotion or reason. However, Le Zhizhen’s words just now relieved Si Tian of some concerns, and the following words came out naturally: “Xiaoshi cares about ranking very much. She will be very sad if her grades are not satisfactory. I think maybe her parents can make her relax a little. It doesn’t matter even if she comes in last.”

Le Zhizhen’s eyes lit up, and she nodded quickly: “You’re right.”

She quickly called out: “Xiaoshi, come here!”

Mu Xiaoshi didn’t know why, but she still came over obediently.

Le Zhizhen adjusted the bow on her head to the appropriate position, held Mu Xiaoshi’s shoulders, and said solemnly: “Xiaoshi, you can sing whatever you want later. It doesn’t matter whether you get first place or not. Your Aunt Si Tian and I will be cheering for you from below!”

Mu Xiaoshi was a little nervous: “Auntie, I will work hard and won’t take the last place again.”

Si Tian said: “So what if you come in last? Anyway, someone will always take the last place, it doesn’t matter who it is.”

Mu Xiaoshi sighed: “But, but…”

She couldn’t tell how the last place would actually be affected, but her classmates and teachers had said that being last was very embarrassing, so Mu Xiaoshi remembered it.

“It will be embarrassing.” Mu Xiaoshi said in a low voice.

Si Tian immediately said: “What’s so shameful about this? It’s just a false name, what’s the importance of a face? What’s real is the one held in your own hand.”
