Then, a big smile of surprise appeared on the child's face, "Rainbow!"
There is a beautiful rainbow above the vapor-filled waterfall.
The colorful colors light up children's eyes.
…
Later, when the children looked back, the reason why they embarked on the road of "wandering" and visited various places was probably because of this experience, right?
...
Happy time always passes quickly.
After hearing the sound of his stomach growling, the child suddenly realized that the morning had passed.
Thinking that he ran out suddenly, the child gave up the idea of going back at night.
Grandpa and grandma will be worried.
Moreover, the purpose of coming out has been achieved.
Tigers are real.
When he thought of this, the child couldn't help but smile stupidly.
…
"Ouch~"
The tiger bent down.
The child slipped off the tiger's back.
"Tiger, I'm going home for dinner."
The child was very reluctant to give up, "Can we play together in the afternoon?"
The child's eyes were sparkling and full of expectation.
The tiger looked at the child for a while.
Then nodded.
Before things become troublesome, let him play with the child for a while.
"Very good!"
Children cheer.
"Then I'll come find you in the woods in the afternoon."
"You have to show up early this time."
The child remembered his anxiety in the morning and couldn't help but tell the tiger.
Then he muttered in a low voice, "Why is it so hard to find such a big tiger..."
Tiger rolled his eyes.
It used its tail to push the child towards the entrance of the forest.
The child looked at the tiger's tail with great interest.
I reached out and wanted to grab it.
But the tail suddenly disappeared from his hand.
The child looked regretful.
Such a long tail is actually so flexible.
The child looked at the tiger.
He wanted to say something more, but found that the tiger turned and left.
The tail is longer than the body and wraps around the body.
Is it to prevent him from grabbing its tail?
The child guesses.
Watching the tiger's back gradually disappearing, the child smiled.
It wasn't until the tiger was no longer in sight that he turned around and left the forest.
…
Before arriving home, the child was very excited, thinking that grandpa and grandma were wrong, and he was right.
Tigers are real.
After arriving home, the child hesitated when he felt the unusual aura of the two old people.
He was worried about his grandfather and his grandmother would not let him go find the tiger.
So, do you want to lie to grandpa and grandma?
The child was very hesitant.
Lying is wrong.
However, he finally became friends with the tiger.
He didn't want to be unable to play with tigers in the future.
…
Seeing the child's confusion, the old man glanced sideways at the old woman again.
It was this old woman who scared the child before.
The children don't even dare to tell the truth to them.
The old lady rolled her eyes.
She is confused when she cares.
When she was a child, she didn't have a friend named Xiaobai who could let her know that what her grandson said was not necessarily nonsense.
…
The old man looked away and smiled gently at the child.
"Leilei, don't worry."
"As long as you tell the truth, grandpa and grandma will believe you."
"……real?"
The child still remembers the previous situation.
What he told at that time was true, but grandpa and grandma didn't believe him.
"real."
The old man nodded seriously, "Grandpa promises."
"Grandpa and grandma were too surprised before."
"I didn't react right away."
"and-"
The wrinkles at the corners of the old man's eyes relaxed, "Thanks to Leilei, grandpa remembered something."
"Remembered something?"
The child was puzzled, "What's the matter?"
"Grandpa had a friend when he was young..."
Now is not the time to sell things, so the old man told Xiao Bai's story straightforwardly.
"He also told grandpa that he had seen tigers in the woods at the back of the mountain."
"real?"
The child opened his mouth in surprise.
"real."
The old man knelt down and looked into the child's eyes, "But grandpa didn't believe him at the time."
"It also failed to fulfill its promise to him."
"...What promise?"
The child blinked.
"He was ill at the time and was unable to keep his appointment with Tiger."
"He asked grandpa to bring a message to the tiger."
"But grandpa thought the tiger he was talking about didn't exist at all and was a lie, so he didn't help him."
"did not expect……"
The old man shook his head with a wry smile, "After so many years, I heard the same words from my own grandson and from you."
"Grandpa began to wonder if he was wrong from the beginning?"
"Tiger does not exist."
"It's just that grandpa didn't see it."
"Yeah?"
The old man's eyebrows showed a bit of annoyance and uncertainty.
The child pursed his lips.
"...the tiger is real."
"I saw the tiger again."
"The tiger took me to play in the forest."
"He also took me to see the waterfall..."
Talking about the morning experience, the child started dancing and the look on his face became more and more excited, "I also saw a rainbow."
"The tiger pointed it out to me."
“Super beautiful!”
…
"Yeah?"
The old man listened quietly to the child's story.
The child's joy also infected him, his eyebrows relaxed and he also laughed.
The old lady stood aside and raised the corners of her mouth.
…
"I made an appointment with the tiger to play with him in the afternoon!"
After the words fell, the child's voice paused.
He looked at his grandfather and grandmother with some caution.
He ran out on his own before.
I wonder if it was his misunderstanding?
At that time, he felt as if his grandmother was chasing him?
But he didn't see his grandmother chasing him out later.
He thought that he must have felt wrong.
But no matter what, grandpa and grandma don't like him going to find tigers, and he still knows this.
Why did he say so quickly that he was going to play with the tiger in the afternoon?
He has not yet determined his grandpa's and grandma's attitudes towards him going to find the tiger.
The child regretted it endlessly.
Suddenly I felt a heavy weight on my head.
He looked up.
The old man took back the hand that touched the child's head just now, narrowed his eyes and smiled.
"Leilei likes tigers very much?"
The child is a little unsure of what grandpa means.
After thinking for a while, he nodded honestly.
"like."
"Tiger is beautiful and handsome."
"He also helped me a lot."
"He took me to see fireflies, waterfalls and rainbows."
At this point, the child's eyes shined brightly.
...
"Um."
The old man nodded, "Tiger sounds good."
"Tiger is very good."
The child stressed.
"Grandpa-"
The child looked at the old man anxiously, "Can I play with the tiger?"
"Can."
The old man's straightforward answer stunned the child.
Hey~~~!
Can?!
"...really, really?"
The child stumbled when he spoke.
Did you agree to him so easily?
He thought...
The child pursed his lips.
He was already prepared for a long-term struggle...
