Chapter 401: Flaunting Her Wealth

Chapter 401: Flaunting Her Wealth

The Li family.

When Xue Xi arrived, it was only 5:30 PM. The banquet would start at 6:30 PM and the living room was basically going to be packed.

The hall was decorated dreamily, and it looked like—

“So expensive!”

Xie Yingying sized up the room’s arrangement. She was even careful when she took a step, afraid that she would step on something expensive and not be able to afford to compensate for it.

She had always known that Li Zixia’s family was rich, but she did not expect the life of a rich person to be like this. Everything was exquisite and made her feel restrained. She could not help but tighten her grip on the gift in her hand, feeling that she could not hand it over.

Xue Xi was looking at her phone.

After school started, the Flames of the Roaring Flame Society all went to the capital to attend. The military training was also going to go on for the next few days. Flame Number One was currently complaining in the group chat that military training was very tiring.

Actually, after Gao Yanchen passed away, the Roaring Flame Society had been depressed for a period of time. However, after they went to support Xue Xi in the IMO in Country M, this group had started to become lively again.

However, the group manager would never send another message again.

Xue Xi was reading their messages when she frowned.

Usually, after Flame Number One sent the message, Qin Shuang would definitely jump out to diss him. The chatterbox would also send Xue Xi messages every day and even call her every night to chat.

The chatterbox had a lot to say. She could talk non-stop for half an hour every time, but after chatting for a while, the topic would go back to her husband, Cen Bai.

However, Qin Shuang had not sent her any messages since Friday.

And on Thursday, she only said that she had to busy herself with some matters. She might not be able to contact her much in the future, but this was too little, right?

Suddenly, there was not a single message. Moreover, after they’d been chatting for so long, she actually did not appear.

At this thought, Xue Xi private-messaged Qin Shuang: “What are you doing?”

Unfortunately, Qin Shuang did not reply to her immediately.

Xue Xi put away her phone and looked up.

As it was not time yet, the organizers hired by the Li family were still doing their styling upstairs. The person who was bringing Xue Xi and Xie Yingying in was the Li family’s butler.

After they entered the room, the butler sent them to the staircase.

Gu Peng stood there and was waiting for them.

From afar, she saw Gu Peng wearing a suit and a bow tie. He looked exceptionally handsome, and Xie Yingying could not help but whisper, “Sister Xi, no wonder Senior Gu Peng is deemed the most handsome among the second-years. He looks quite handsome in a suit!”

Xue Xi looked up.

Handsome?

She felt that Xiang Huai looked better in a suit.

As the two of them thought this, Gu Peng took a step forward and said with a smile, “Xiao Xia originally intended to come down personally to fetch you guys, but the stylist was only halfway through her hair, so I came down instead. Follow me.”

After he said that, his gaze swept past Xie Yingying and landed on Xue Xi.

Although Xie Yingying was pretending to be calm, one could tell that she was still very nervous. As for Xue Xi… It was unknown if she was pretending too well or if she was used to having such a grandiose and calm expression.

Gu Peng lowered his eyes.

No wonder Xiao Xia was full of praise for her. She was indeed not an ordinary person. However, no matter how strong her mental fortitude was, she would still feel inferior later.

As the next head of the Gu family, Gu Peng had always been consciously nurtured by his family into doing things as a leader.

Hence, in his opinion, it was fine for Li Zixia to befriend Xue Xi, but the initiative should be in Li Zixia’s hands. Instead, Li Zixia was behaving like a brainless fan who kept calling her Sister Xi…

Today, she would make Xue Xi see Li Zixia’s talent.

After saying this, he went upstairs.

Xue Xi and Xie Yingying followed behind him. Just as the two of them went upstairs, they saw a piano placed in the middle of the spacious living room on the second floor. At this moment, Li Zixia’s high school classmates were gathered here. Someone was playing the piano.

Her fingers flew across the piano strings and danced beautifully. Everyone around her was listening.

Xie Yingying instantly looked over and whispered, “Sister Xi, what are they playing? It’s so nice.”

She came from a wealthy family. Although she had signed up for a few art classes since she was young, she had never attended anything as expensive as piano lessons.

Most of the time, she was in the Math Olympiad class.

Just as Xue Xi was about to answer her question, she heard Gu Peng say, “This is ‘Adeline by the Water.’ The one who’s playing the piano is Xiao Xia’s piano teacher. She is also quite famous in the piano world, so I sent her an invitation today.”

Xie Yingying was stunned. “Are all Li Zixia’s piano classes taught by such a famous person?”

Gu Peng smiled. “Of course. As the only daughter of the Li family, Xiao Xia has always wanted the best things since she was young. This teacher is nothing much. Have you heard of the world-renowned pianist, Zhou Zhou? A family that can invite Zhou Zhou to be a teacher is the most powerful. Unfortunately, although our two families are rich, we don’t have such a relationship.”

Xie Yingying: “…”

She was already dumbstruck.

No wonder Li Zixia was always friendly and self-righteous when living in the dormitory. It turned out that it was because of her family background.

If she were to live in such a superior environment and then have to stay in the dormitory, she would definitely despise it even more!

And Zhou Zhou—Even someone like her who did not know how to play the piano had heard of him. He was an internationally-renowned pianist, a world-renowned figure!

She could not help but click her tongue. “How much does such a piano lesson cost?”

“Not much.” Gu Peng smiled.

He had no intention of flaunting his wealth because money was just a number to him.

However, the servant beside her said, “Our young mistress’s piano lessons cost about 5000 yuan per lesson. A person like Zhou Zhou is hard to come by, so the price is even higher.”

Xie Yingying: “!!!”

She had attended the most expensive tuition class since she was young. It was the Math Olympiad class, which cost 600 yuan per lesson. It was her parents who had tightened their belts and applied for it!

Li Zixia actually paid 5000 yuan an hour for a piano lesson??

This was the life of the rich!

Xie Yingying was convinced.

Gu Peng was very satisfied with her reaction. When he looked at Xue Xi again, he saw that her expression was still indifferent. Gu Peng narrowed his eyes and felt that he had to use a big move to convince this person.

Hence, Gu Peng smiled. “This is nothing. Xiao Xia plays the piano for fun. Actually, she likes painting more. Do you guys understand national paintings?”

Xie Yingying: “I’ve heard of it, but I’ve never drawn it. Sister Xi, what about you?”

Xue Xi: “…Yes.”

Gu Peng raised an eyebrow. She actually learned painting?

He asked, “Ms. Xue, have you learned painting before? How long have you been learning it?”

Xue Xi thought for a moment. “One month.”

Gu Peng: “…”

What could she learn in a month? However, this did not stop him from showing off.

Gu Peng nodded. His attitude was very amiable, but his words made Xie Yingying feel that there was a difference between them. “Look at this painting. This is Teacher Night Li’s painting. She is a new landscape painter.”
