The crowd burst into laughter upon seeing this, the little one was still a bit scared. Seeing the lion dance toward him made him somewhat daring not to look, yet he didn't want to back down, wanting to show off in front of his family—he stood with his body tilted, as if ready to run back at any moment. One hand was raised diagonally toward the direction of the lion, his head turned to one side, watching the lion with a sidelong glance.
That expression of wanting to look yet not daring to, not daring yet wanting to, where curiosity triumphed over fear, truly made people double over with laughter.
The lion dance performer naturally wouldn't scare the child. Approaching this point, the movements slowed, gently lowering the lion's head, then "swallowing" the little one's arm into its mouth—with this cover, the performer inside took the red envelope.
