Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Wasn’t that the man who went to the Zhao family with the young master of the Mu family that day? It turned out that Wen Xin had already hooked up with the people around the young master of the Mu family. No wonder she was so arrogant.
“Mom, why are you so surprised? Did you remember something? Have you heard of any clues about the divine doctor?” Geng Qiu looked at Su Li’s surprised expression and thought that Su Li knew the divine doctor. A flame of hope ignited in her heart. Her father was saved.
“No, it’s fine… Qiuqiu, stay away from Wen Xin in school. She’s a lunatic. I heard about her bet too. In a few days, she’ll be chased out of school. She’s overestimating herself and causing trouble all day long.”
At the mention of Wen Xin, Geng Qiu felt awkward. When she thought of what Zhao Yuyao had said, she felt extremely vexed. “Mom’s monthly exams are coming up soon. I’m going to study first.”
“Go and study. Don’t forget to practice the piano well. The piano competition is coming soon.” Su Li had hoped that Geng Qiu could use the piano competition to gain popularity.
After dinner, Wen Xin followed a group of classmates and passed by a place that sold musical instruments. Tan Xingyue, sitting in a wheelchair, looked at the piano in the shop.
“I want to go in and take a look. I haven’t played the piano for a long time. I wonder if I’m rusty.” When Tan Xingyue was in the sanatorium, she would play the piano every day after her exercise.
She had not played the piano since leaving the sanatorium.
Wen Xin stood behind the crowd and heard Tan Xingyue’s voice. She raised an eyebrow at her and said, “Let’s try out which one looks good. We can buy one and send it to the art room in school. Coincidentally, there’s no piano in school.”
Actually, when Wen Xin heard that Tan Xingyue was going to participate in the piano competition, she planned to buy a piano and send it to Yuelu Gardens. However, Tan Xingyue was staying on campus, and it was not convenient for her to go back to Yuelu Gardens, so Wen Xin never bought one.
Just now, she thought about it and decided that sending her to school was not a bad idea. If Tan Xingyue liked it, she could go to the art room for music.
“Wen Xin, did I hear wrongly? You want to buy a piano for the school? Do you know how much a piano costs?”
The group in front all turned to look at Wen Xin.
In their eyes, Wen Xin was just a pitiful little girl from Ancient Market Town who the Geng family had adopted.
Even though it was Wen Xin who offered to treat, it was actually Wen Huai who ended up paying the bill. Now, when they heard that Wen Xin wanted to buy a piano, they felt that her grandiose statements were somewhat unrealistic.
They were all children of rich families, but even they did not dare to casually say that they wanted to buy a piano to donate to the school.
Wen Xin met their gazes and raised her eyebrows slightly. Her lips curled into a
smile as she pushed open the door of the instrument workshop and walked in.
When the shop assistant heard the sound of someone coming in, he immediately came out to welcome them. When he saw that it was a group of students walking in, his face darkened, and his tone was not very good.
“Is there anything you need?”
“Hello, we want to try out the piano. May I ask if we can try the piano in the shop?” Tan Xingyue got out of her wheelchair and walked to a black piano that looked very expensive. She felt that this piano was similar to the one Wen Xin had given her.
Before Tan Xingyue’s hand could touch the piano, the shop assistant screamed, “Don’t move. Do you know how expensive the piano next to you is? It’s more than 30 million yuan. If you touch it, you won’t be able to pay for it if you scratch it, let alone breaking it!”
Hearing the price of more than 30 million, Tan Xingyue hurriedly withdrew her hand and took a step back. “I’m sorry. I thought this piano was similar to the one at home. I didn’t expect…
Before Tan Xingyue could finish, the shop assistant sized her up and sneered. “Little girl, you’re really good at joking. There are only two pianos in the world.Someone in Continent M bought one M, and the other was bought by my boss as the treasure of the shop. How can you have such a piano in your house? Next time you brag, please rehearse first. Otherwise, it’ll be so embarrassing in front of your classmates!”
Tan Xingyue’s face turned red from the shop assistant’s words. She looked around and saw that everyone’s eyes were on her. She ran to Wen Xin’s side aggrievedly and buried her face in Wen Xin’s shoulder, muttering softly.
“I really thought this piano was similar to the one you gave me. I didn’t know it was so expensive!”
Wen Xin looked at Tan Xingyue’s aggrieved expression. She looked coldly at the shop assistant and said, “A piano that costs more than 30 million is indeed a little expensive. But I can afford it.”
As she spoke, Wen Xin took out a black card and threw it on the piano in front of the shop assistant. “Go and call your boss. Tell her that I’ve taken a fancy to her shop’s highlight piece and want to buy it!”
The students who came in with Wen Xin were all staring at her with their mouths agape. They were sure that the shop assistant had said more than 30 million yuan, not more than 3,000 yuan.
Wen Xin’s actions had truly shocked them. Some of them even rubbed their eyes, wanting to see if the black card that Wen Xin had thrown out was a membership card that had been scrubbed.
Zhao Yuyao, who was standing beside Wen Huai, nudged Wen Huai with his arm. He wanted to ask Wen Huai if Wen Xin was joking. He knew that Wen Huai’s background was not simple, but more than 30 million…Even Wen Huai wouldn’t be able to take it out, right?
The shop assistant did not pay any attention to Wen Xin, who was wearing a school uniform. He looked at her with disdain, picked up the black card on the piano, and placed it in front of Wen Xin.
“Little student, if you want to buy a piano, you can go to the second floor and buy an electronic piano to play with. The piano is not suitable for poor students like you.”
The shop assistant’s tone was scornful and mocking. He had been working in this musical instrument store for three years. Not to mention that no one had bought this piano that was more than 30 million yuan. He had only sold one piano that was worth 3 million yuan.
A poor student wanted to buy a piano worth more than 30 million yuan. If she wasn’t joking with him, what was she doing?
Wen Xin looked at the shop assistant’s contemptuous attitude and sneered. She narrowed her eyes slightly and glanced at the WeChat number on the wall. She took out her phone and dialed the string of numbers. Soon, the call was connected.
“Are you the owner of the musical instrument workshop? I’ve taken a fancy to your shop’s treasure, that piano. When do you have time to come over, and we can discuss the price?”
When the owner of the musical instrument workshop received the call, she thought it was a joke. She was puzzled for a moment and asked, “Are you sure you want the piano from the treasure of the shop? The price of that piano is a little high. I shipped it back from abroad. Including the cost and shipping fees, it costs 36,660,000 yuan. I don’t think there’s a need to buy such a good piano. From your voice, you don’t sound too old. You can consider the piano in the shop that costs hundreds of thousands.”
When the shop assistant heard his boss patiently explaining to Wen Xin, his face darkened as he walked up to Wen Xin and snatched her phone away..
