No matter what the expression on the little sister's face, Qiao Xinyi's expression did not change, and she revealed some information intentionally or unintentionally, "I despise Qiao Xiyin. She didn't show up for the past seventeen years, why do you want to disrupt my life at this time?"
Everything she said was true. Mrs. Qiao was Qiao Xiyin's biological mother. When she was young, Mrs. Qiao was a glamorous socialite. She was once included in the list of beauties who were obviously good-looking but did not enter the entertainment industry.
And Qiao Xiyin did come to her world in the seventeenth year of her life.
As for how they guessed
Qiao Xinyi lowered her head and encouraged herself secretly.
She said nothing.
It's not her business.
In the first half of the adult banquet, Mr. Chang's family and Chang Shilin spoke and delivered many speeches on growth, and everyone sent blessings one by one.
Next, adults are with adults, students are with students, and everyone has their own fun.
Qiao Xiyin is also sending birthday gifts to Chang Shilin.
Qiao Xinyi was generous and gave her a bracelet from the Shi family. Although it was made of sterling silver, it cost less than a thousand dollars, which was considered a luxury among her peers.
Qiao Xiyin gave her a maple leaf red lipstick.
“It’s time to dress yourself up,” she said with a smile. “This color is especially suitable for autumn and winter.”
Chang Shilin accepted them one by one.
After a while, everyone went to the dance floor one after another. As soon as the men and women broke free from the shackles of the school, they didn't know how high they were. If adults weren't watching, they wouldn't know how many bottles of wine they would drink.
Qiao Xiyin quietly withdrew and found He Yunchao in the crowd.
Really in the crowd.
There were at least three women gathered in front of He Yunchao. They were between twenty and thirty years old. They were hot, pure and playful in three different styles. Some were holding wine in their hands, some were holding cakes, but they were scrambling to pull their coat collars to the front. Pull it down to show off your proud curves.
She silently took two steps back.
It seems like you shouldn’t come here.
But seeing He Yunchao's smile gradually turning cold, and a hint of impatience on his face, he wondered if he should help him for the sake of his new clothes.
Within a moment, Qiao Xiyin had already made her decision.
She is working hard for a better and brighter future.
The moment her thoughts emerged, the expression on her face changed. She squeezed in next to him with difficulty, and quietly pulled his sleeve, "Brother He!"
Mr. He was about to rush away. The dark clouds on his face cleared, and his voice softened a few degrees, "Yeah."
The eyes of several girls around him who were trying unsuccessfully to strike up a conversation were all wide-eyed.
"It's time to dance," she pursed her lips, aggrievedly, "Are you going to go?"
The soft and lovely little girl blinked her smart eyes, as if everything in the world was glowing with soft luster.
White and simple.
How can there be room for other people
He Yunchao naturally stood up, took her hand, "Let's go."
"Did I bother you?" the little girl was struggling again, her eyes passing over the girls one by one, "and the sisters"
It seemed like he was complaining about something.
Qiao Xiyin, a thousand-year-old demon, was in a good mood as she called her brother and sister again.
She is the youngest here.
However, the expressions on the faces of the girls were very subtle.
She was reminding them that they were already of a certain age and could not steal a little sister of her age.
The vicious eyes of the girls were about to cut a hole in Qiao Xiyin's face, and they wanted to tear off the lotus petals from her body. Qiao Xiyin seemed unaware, waiting for He Yunchao's answer.
I saw him stand up and said in a gentle and doting tone, "No."
"Then let's go"
She hugged his arm happily.
After getting rid of several girls and walking to a place with few people, He Yunchao put one hand in his pocket and asked with a half-smile, "Sister Xiao Qiao, is this a debt of gratitude?"
The little girl shook her head hurriedly, with a well-behaved look on her face, "This is what a sister should do."
He was immediately amused.
Just act, it's quite cute this way.
He asked again, "Do you want to go dancing?"
This time Qiao Xiyin appeared in her true self, with a little pink on her earlobes, and whispered, "I, I can't."
On the dance floor, Qiao Xinyi, wearing an elegant long dress, sat in front of the piano and played.
She matched the rhythm of the band exactly, and together they played a beautiful movement.
The surrounding students were applauding, and the elders nodded with satisfaction, "The young lady from the Qiao family is just different."
What Qiao Xinyi didn't know was that there was another matter involved in the Qiao couple's trip.
Give Qiao Xinyi a legal identity.
Let her stay in the Qiao family as the adopted daughter of the Qiao family.
But now, this matter has not been made public. Others only know that there is another Miss Qiao in the Qiao family. The Qiao family has not given a positive explanation for how she came.
Qiao Xinyi raised her head proudly, revealing a beautiful section of her neck.
On the other side, Qiao Xiyin was cutting off a small piece of cod fillet and putting it in her mouth.
The meat of the cod is so tender that it melts in your mouth. When grilled on an iron plate, the taste is so good that you can't wait to swallow it.
Qiao Xiyin regretted it very much.
How many delicious foods has she missed after practicing magic for so many years
Why does she, with her status as Miss Qiao, actually focus on how to be a silly girl instead of eating delicious food all over the world
Seeing her look like this, He Yunchao couldn't help but laugh, "As for Teppanyaki, if you still want to eat, you can come to my company directly to see me."
It doesn't take anyone from the Qiao family to do this.
"Let's talk about it when we get a chance," Qiao Xiyin took another bite, "I'm already a senior in high school."
Everyone is so excited today that they have forgotten that almost all of the students here are senior high school students.
This is probably the last party.
He Yunchao looked at her, but couldn't help it and gently stroked her long hair.
The time is quiet here, but Qiao Xinyi was absent-minded and played several wrong notes.
After the song ended, she had no intention of playing anymore and went to find Chang Shilin, "Qiao Xiyin didn't dance with you."
The Chang family is the host here, and she knows not to act without permission.
"Qiaoqiao said she couldn't." Chang Shilin had no reaction.
"Ballroom dancing isn't that difficult. You told her a long time ago, right? She didn't learn it for you," Qiao Xinyi said lightly without looking at Chang Shilin's face, "You can play the piano."
this
What Qiao Xinyi said makes sense.
Chang Shilin's unknown emotions caused her to walk out of the dance floor, leading several classmates behind her to Qiao Xiyin's side.
Qiao Xiyin just took a sip of juice.
"Qiaoqiao," her smile was as usual, "why don't you come and play with us? If you don't know how to dance, you can also play musical instruments. Several of them treat this as a KTV."
She meant something and looked at Qiao Xinyi sitting in front of the piano.
He Yunchao glanced over.
Somehow, Chang Shilin suddenly felt a chill behind her back, but she still endured the discomfort and kept smiling.
"I don't know how," Qiao Xiyin's voice was soft, "I don't know how to play any of those instruments."
He Yunchao answered in time, "Yinyin, it's okay, you don't need to know these things. If you don't want to stay here, we can leave."
Chang Shilin's smile was a little stiff.
She didn't know that Mr. He would actually protect her.
Qiao Xiyin was still looking over there.
Finally, I heard her say
"I can't even play Western instruments. I can try those."
She pointed into the distance.
There were some classical musical instruments over there, such as guzheng, pipa, bamboo flute, etc., but the theme was not this, so they were not used.
"Brother He," she looked over, "can I go over there and have a look?"
He Yunchao nodded, "I'll go with you."
Chang Shilin quickly followed.
Seeing that something was wrong, Qiao Xinyi felt nervous and got off the stage.
But Qiao Xiyin walked towards the classical musical instruments.
She sneered at Qiao Xiyin who came from the countryside. Not to mention musical instruments, it would be good if she could read a few music scores. There is a music teacher in the countryside
You can tell by looking at her English score that just passed the passing line.
She went there with the mentality of watching a good show.
Several little sisters from Class 9 stood beside her. They also knew Qiao Xiyin's details and followed her curiously.
Qiao Xiyin was picking through a pile of musical instruments, but she still didn't make a move.
Chang Shilin looked anxious and didn't dare to ask Qiao Xiyin that something was wrong with her face at that time.
Maybe we won’t be able to make the table next time.
"That's it," she pointed to the guzheng, "do you have fake armor?"
The staff next to me answered, "Yes, yes, just put it on the piano board."
The classmates watching from behind were whispering to each other.
In current instrumental music interest classes, Eastern guzheng and Western piano are the two top choices. Most of those who have studied musical instruments in the Children's Palace have been exposed to these two.
Therefore, it is not surprising that some of the students here are good at guzheng.
But this is Qiao Xiyin.
Qiao Xiyin transferred from the county town to be an exchange student.
"Qiao Qiao," Chang Shilin summoned up the courage to talk to Qiao Xiyin, "do you need music scores?"
"No need," Qiao Xiyin's expression remained as usual, "But you have to wait, it won't be that fast."
Naturally, the people around him had no objections.
They all came to watch the fun.
Qiao Xiyin successfully found the fake armor and tried to pluck the strings.
The tone of the guzheng had been tuned and she didn't need to deal with it anymore. She did two sets of fingering exercises in three minutes, opened her fingers, and then stopped.
The experts around her couldn't help but feel disappointed when they saw her. They thought she was going to show off her skills, but they didn't expect that she only played the most basic fingering exercises.
Children who are just learning can play it.
Sure enough, one cannot have high expectations for Qiao Xiyin.
Qiao Xinyi thought so too, and the disdain in her eyes grew stronger.
Then, Qiao Xiyin raised her hand again and plucked the strings.
At the beginning of the sentence, some people heard that it was "high mountains and flowing water"
This is a classic guzheng song. It has developed into modern times and has been integrated into national customs. There are three versions. The piece is not long and not difficult to play.
But the song she played combines the sonorous and simple music of Shandong, the distant beauty of Henan, and the smooth flowing water of Zhejiang. The three are combined into one song, and the music is lengthened, and the sound of the piano is mellow, like the majestic Mount Tai and the ocean of the river. So close.
It's a new, unprecedented way of playing.
