Stolen Life of the Poor Girl, Top Luxury Family's Group Favor

Chapter 84: Little Duck: Too Easy



Chapter 84

Unlike Shitou School, which ended the semester early due to snow-blocked roads, this elite school would continue classes until January.

The next day, Li Xiaoya naturally had to get up and go to school as usual.

Wei Lin was still responsible for dropping her off and picking her up.

When the car arrived at school, the bodyguard opened the door from outside, but Li Xiaoya didn't rush to get out. "The teacher said we're learning ice skating in PE class today, but I don't have ice skates."

Wei Lin said, "Alright, I understand. I'll go buy you some right away."

Li Xiaoya nodded and then walked into the school with her backpack.

The driver couldn't help but say, "This is clearly troubling you."

Wei Lin smiled carelessly and said, "She's just a child, how would she understand what's troublesome or not? She's just returned, so it's natural for her to be a bit pampered."

The driver's eyes flickered, and he lowered his voice, "It's really hard on you. Even if the young miss is precious, you shouldn't be doing such tasks. Isn't it like using a butcher's knife to kill a chicken?"

Wei Lin immediately understood why the driver said this.

In the past, when the old master was ill and rarely appeared, and it was clear that neither the second young master nor the little young master could be relied upon, all the shrewd people up and down knew to listen to Wei Lin, treating him as if he were the second master of the house.

But now, the situation had changed.

The young miss had returned, and although the old master didn't show the tearful joy and preciousness that other elders might, it was clear that he was satisfied with her.

So how would the subordinates align themselves in the future?

Were they now testing him?

Wei Lin laughed coldly in his heart.

This little girl had brought quite an impact!

Wei Lin said, "First, drive to the mall."

After the car got on the main road, Wei Lin smiled and said, "You're currently earning a salary of 45,000 a month, right?"

"Yes."

"Your elder sister works in the transport company under the group. She recommended you to me, which is why you had the opportunity to work here."

"Yes, yes, I owe my current position to you. That's why I can't bear to see the young miss bullying you like this. I wish I could do these tasks in your place..." Although the driver was looking ahead, his body was already bowing and nodding.

"You think she's bullying me?" Wei Lin snorted with a laugh, "The kid is still too young."

The driver lowered his posture even more, quickly asking, "Please enlighten me."

"Why don't you tell me first, how many people outside have heard the news of the young miss's return?"

Hearing this, the driver hesitated for a moment. The rearview mirror in the car clearly reflected his embarrassed expression.

The driver said, "Uh, those who should know in the country... all know..."

"What do you mean?" Wei Lin frowned.

"Well... if it trends a few more times on social media, probably the whole country will know."

"..." He had almost forgotten that Li Xiaoya was still filming that reality show!

If the old master hadn't been coughing up blood last month, why would he have rushed to bring her back?

Who knew that as soon as Li Xiaoya returned, the old master would become energetic again.

Talk about a plan backfiring!

Wei Lin, who had sat up straight, slowly leaned back again. He said, "It doesn't matter much, since we don't have many businesses in the country anyway. Those abroad probably won't receive the news for a while."

The old master had many enemies abroad, so he definitely wouldn't rush to announce Li Xiaoya's identity to foreign financial groups.

"But..." the driver hesitated, then said, "I heard that because the ratings of that reality show were so high, they decided to launch an overseas version."

Wei Lin: "..."

"No wonder even you're anxious," Wei Lin said in a deep voice.

The driver hurriedly said, "Sir, I'm not..."

"You don't even qualify to place bets."

The driver's face paled, his expression becoming even more awkward.

"It's your elder sister who's concerned, right? And who does she represent? Mr. Qi from the transport company?" Wei Lin shook his head, "They're too impatient. It's only just beginning. How old is the young miss? Just that school she's in now is like a hell-level challenge for her."

The driver was stunned.

Really? He felt that although the young miss grew up in the mountains, she seemed quite at ease and neither humble nor arrogant in the elite school.

"You don't believe it?" Wei Lin wanted to say, that's why you can only be a driver, your vision is so limited.

"Being a rich family's daughter isn't easy. Most of the courses taught in this school are completely new to her, extremely difficult. And what's more deadly is... the more she orders me around, the more it will give others the impression that she's spoiled."

Yet in this school, there's no shortage of young ladies and young masters.

Who would indulge whom?

Wei Lin put away his mocking smile and closed his eyes, no longer speaking.

He thought to himself that you can't discuss ice with summer insects. Being able to explain so much to the driver was already considered his great mercy.

The driver lowered his head, seemingly lost in thought, and didn't speak again either.

Wei Lin wasn't wrong.

On her first day, Li Xiaoya didn't have any special experiences, but on the second day, she discovered that this place was really, really, really different from Shitou School!

They had to take piano lessons!

And she had never even seen a piano before this.

The teacher led them into the music classroom and said, "Let's first review the Nikolayev Etude."

After speaking, the teacher looked at Li Xiaoya: "You've just arrived, and your new piano isn't ready yet. You can use the teacher's for now."

Li Xiaoya walked over and looked down at the clumsy and huge "monster" before her. Its lines were smooth, gleaming with an attractive luster.

"Alright, let's begin now," the teacher said, clapping her hands.

Immediately, the classroom was filled with a cacophony of music.

It was a sound Li Xiaoya had never heard before.

Light and magnificent.

"Why isn't she moving?"

"Does she not know how to play the piano?"

"How strange, didn't her family ever hire a piano teacher for her?"

The children couldn't help but start gossiping again.

The girl called "An Ying" felt her mouth twitch, wanting to quietly advise them that Li Xiaoya could hit people!

But when she looked in Li Xiaoya's direction, she found that Li Xiaoya wasn't angry at all, and even seemed not to care what they were saying.

At this point, the piano teacher also felt a bit awkward and quickly bent down to ask, "Are you not used to playing someone else's piano?"

She was actually trying to give Li Xiaoya a way out, to avoid her family being displeased later.

But Li Xiaoya said, "No." She said, "I don't know how."

The teacher was taken aback: "You mean you don't know this etude? It's okay..."

Li Xiaoya said very honestly, "This is the first time I've seen a piano." She gently pressed her hand on the black and white keys: "I don't know how to play a complete piece of music."

The teacher was stunned. She really didn't know how to play at all!

Li Xiaoya then looked up at her: "Can you teach me now?"

Children of this age had already started to care about saving face. They didn't have a clear concept of strengths and weaknesses yet, and often even developed the idea that they could do anything.

Li Xiaoya was the first person the teacher had ever seen who so calmly said she "didn't know how to do it at all."

"...I can, but, but it can't be taught in a short time. You probably don't know how to read music either, right? And there's finger technique, that needs to be learned too."

Li Xiaoya lowered her head and thought for a moment, then said, "Can the teacher play it once for me to see?"

"Of course I can."

The teacher clapped her hands, asking the others to stop, and cleared her throat saying, "I'll play it once for you, and you listen to see which notes you got wrong earlier."

With that, the teacher began to play.

Li Xiaoya stood to the side, watching intently.

The etude wasn't long, it seemed to last only a few breaths before it ended.

But Li Xiaoya could hear that the sound the teacher played was much smoother.

She closed her eyes briefly, then reached out her hand, pressing down on the black and white keys again, reproducing the first few notes with great difficulty.

The others thought she was just pressing randomly, but the teacher had a keener sense of music. She was stunned for a moment and asked, "How did you play that?" She clearly didn't even know how to recognize the keys yet.

Li Xiaoya said, "By imitation."

"You remember which keys I pressed?"

Li Xiaoya nodded: "I only remember a bit, I can't remember clearly after that." As she spoke, she continued pressing, and indeed made several mistakes in the middle.

The teacher took a deep breath: "There are 88 keys in total, only black and white, and you can distinguish and remember exactly which keys I pressed in sequence?"

"Is it difficult?"

"Don't you find it difficult?"

Li Xiaoya said, "It's much easier than farming."

The teacher was suddenly at a loss for words.

Outside the window.

Qin Sui stood there in silent contemplation, quietly observing the entire process.

...As expected of Li Xiaoya.

Qin Sui couldn't help but wonder, if he had been the first person to go to the village to record the show, if he had been the one to gradually teach Li Xiaoya the rules of this world, watching her become increasingly capable, wouldn't that have given him an even greater sense of accomplishment?
