Chapter 282: Chapter 282: Where Does Your Sense of Superiority Come From?
Chen Xuan, however, paid no attention to the disdainful looks from the other parents, who regarded him as an outlier, and went straight to the classroom door.
"Daddy!"
As soon as she saw Chen Xuan, Xiaoyu ran over happily.
Chen Xuan picked Xiaoyu up in a hug, "Did you miss Daddy?"
"Yeah, I missed you so much!" Xiaoyu nodded her head seriously.
Chen Xuan felt incredibly happy inside.
No matter what troubles he had, they all disappeared as soon as he saw his daughter.
"Truly Daddy’s good girl!"
Chen Xuan said, planting a kiss on Xiaoyu’s chubby little cheek.
Meanwhile, the faces of the nearby parents turned uglier by the minute.
They had all watched the internal performance of the piano class just before and were deeply impressed by the child named Chen Xiaoyu.
At Xiaoyu’s age, it was rare to find peers who could play as well as she could.
Even the piano professor hired by the school had nothing but praises for Xiaoyu, calling her a one-in-a-million piano prodigy, which made those parents green with envy.
Moreover, the piano class had a rule: every semester, they would select three children from the class to perform at the Golden Hall of Vienna.
Now, one of those spots was unexpectedly taken by the daughter of an electric scooter rider, which naturally upset these self-proclaimed elite parents!
"Let’s go, Daddy will take you home!"
Chen Xuan, holding Xiaoyu, was ready to leave directly.
But at that moment, several lavishly dressed parents directly blocked his way.
"Sir, are you sure you are this little girl’s parent?"
Chen Xuan was puzzled, "Of course I am. Why, is there a problem?"
The parents exchanged glances, all showing wry smiles.
"No problem, we just wanted to offer you a few words of advice."
One parent stepped forward first.
He was dressed in an expensive suit and as he stepped forward, he deliberately raised his wrist to show off his million-dollar Rolex watch, clearly intending to flaunt his wealth.
"Advice? What advice?" Chen Xuan was intrigued.
The Rolex-wearing parent said haughtily, "You should know that piano is a form of high art, not like those messy, common instruments such as guitars or drum sets!"
"From its very inception, the piano has been exclusive to the aristocracy."
"Only children born into high society can truly grasp the profound elegance of the piano art."
"As for children from poor families, even if they manage to learn the piano, they can never appreciate its noble essence. It’s frankly no different from a donkey chewing on peonies! Hahaha..."
His face was full of mockery and disdain, prompting nods of agreement from the other parents.
Chen Xuan could only offer a wry smile, "You’ve said so much, but what exactly are you trying to say?"
At this, another parent wearing a diamond necklace snorted disdainfully, "Can’t you understand?"
"The piano is something children from affluent families like ours have the capital to enjoy. Your kind of small household should just stick to learning something casual like guitar or drums!"
"We all know there are many parents like you who think that by having their children learn something classy, they can use that skill to break into high society and cling to the powerful. "
"But in reality, a phoenix is a phoenix, and a sparrow is a sparrow! Even if it’s fitted with beautiful wings, a sparrow cannot become a phoenix!"
"So, I suggest you better withdraw your daughter from this international piano class as soon as possible!"
The other parents hurriedly chimed in, "That’s right, this way you can save quite a bit of money for your family!"
"Use that money to buy a car first, which for families like yours, is more worthwhile than learning the piano!"
Their purpose was simple, they wanted Xiaoyu to give up her spot to perform at the Golden Hall of Vienna, increasing their own children’s chances.
Hearing their words, Chen Xuan was speechless.
Apparently, these people saw his plain clothes and his electric scooter and instantly judged him to be poor, and they felt that Xiaoyu did not even deserve to learn piano here with their children.
What a noble instrument!
Damn high society folk!
Chen Xuan really didn’t know where these people got their sense of superiority from, to be able to say such things to him!
From the beginning, Chen Xuan had his daughter, Xiaoyu, learn the piano simply for fun.
Yet, he hadn’t expected that in the eyes of these parents, such an ordinary piano class could be seen as so high-end!
"Well, have you made up your mind, when are you planning on pulling your daughter out of piano class?"
The Rolex-wearing parent commanded with an air of authority.
Chen Xuan replied with a faint smile, "I’m sorry, my daughter really likes the piano, so I won’t be having her quit the piano class."
Upon hearing this, the faces of those parents turned sour immediately.
"You parent, you just can’t seem to take a hint!" the Rolex-wearing parent said coldly.
The well-off lady was not at all polite as she said, "Do you know how much money it costs to learn piano? Not to mention that this is an international piano class!"
"With a small-time family like yours, you’d probably be strapped even if you tightened your belts and stopped eating!"
"I think you’re just trying to punch above your weight!"
Chen Xuan replied with a faint smile, "Our family indeed isn’t wealthy, but we can still afford the piano lessons!"
"And, I have never thought about trying to punch above my weight!"
The wealthy lady scoffed, "Still pretending not to punch above your weight?"
With that, she pressed her car key.
Beep Beep!
A Porsche’s lights came on not too far away.
The Rolex-wearing parent also understood the cue and pressed his car key.
Beep Beep!
The lights of a Lincoln lit up behind them.
Then one after another, the other parents followed suit, pressing their own car keys.
Range Rovers, Alfa Romeos, Rolls Royces, and other luxury cars lit up one by one, resembling a pack of fierce beasts showing off to Chen Xuan!
A moment later, all the car lights had flashed once.
The face of the wealthy lady was filled with a smug look.
She looked at Chen Xuan with a cold laugh and said, "Do you know what these are? Do you know how much these cars are worth?"
"Now you see, this is the difference between us!"
The parents, one by one, wore looks of triumph, the posture of victors.
Even their children joined in, laughing at Xiaoyu.
Faced with the parents’ display of strength, Chen Xuan could only offer a wry smile.
"So that’s what you wanted to show me? Then I’m sorry, our family’s mode of transportation is somewhat different from yours."
The wealthy lady glanced at the electric scooter next to him and scoffed, saying meaningfully, "That’s right, indeed quite different!"
"Hahaha..." The other parents laughed mockingly.
But Chen Xuan just shook his head, "You misunderstood, that’s not what I was talking about."
The upmarket lady was puzzled, "Not that? Then what are you talking about?"
Without another word, Chen Xuan made a phone call.
Minutes later, a huge humming noise came from the sky.
Chen Xuan said with a faint smile, "Sorry, my ride is here."
Everyone looked up, and they were stunned on the spot.
In the not-too-distant sky, a massive armed helicopter was slowly approaching them!
