After all, that was the estimated value he gave to the orphan book.
In the end, there was no doubt that Wen Shiyu had won the book.
At the end of the auction, Wen Shiyu received the lone copy of the poetry collection from the staff.
After she carefully put it away, she looked at Pei Shixi with a smile and said gratefully, “Thank you for bringing me here tonight, otherwise I would still have to worry about the gift.”
“What’s wrong with that, didn’t you help me before.”
Pei Shixi’s eyes were gentle as he looked back at Wen Shiyu, in his heart he actually didn’t like Wen Shiyu being so polite to himself.
Wen Shiyu didn’t know this.
She had finished solving a matter of the heart and was in a much more relaxed mood.
Thinking that Pei Shixi had stayed with her all night, she decided to treat Pei Shixi to a nightcap.
Of course Pei Shixi would not refuse, and even wanted to spend more time with Wen Shiyu.
In the restaurant box, the two of them dined and chatted at the same time.
As both of them were violinists, the topics were almost always music-related.
Wen Shiyu also asked for advice on a number of issues.
In particular, many of the pieces she was currently training on required excellent fingering skills.
“Fingering is something you need to build up your proficiency slowly, there’s no rush, and your current ability is more than enough to use, so there’s no need to rush.”
Pei Shixi answered one by one, while admonishing, “You should remember to take care of your fingers after practising fingering every day, otherwise your fingers will get injured in the long run.”
“I know, every day after practising, I have a ma*sage.”
Wen Shiyu smiled and nodded her head.
The conversation between the two then unknowingly shifted to Kathleen.
“I heard that Kathleen has been working against you a lot this time, what’s going on between you two?”
“Actually, there’s not much conflict between us, if I have to say there is, it’s probably because Kathleen likes it and you and I are friends, that’s why she targets me so much.”
Speaking of this, Wen Shiyu was all helpless.
Pei Shixi frowned, quite displeased with Kathleen’s approach.
Once again, Wen Shiyu’s gossipy voice came to his ears, “Say, does Mr. Pei not like Cathleen at all?”
Pei Shixi looked across at the girl whose eyes were full of curiosity and shook his head.
“My idea of relationships is that I only want to be with people I like, Kathleen is just a friend, I won’t be with her.”
He said, his eyes deepening as he glanced at Wen Shiyu.
However Wen Shiyu didn’t notice.
She nodded approvingly and smiled, “Teacher Pei is right, matters of affection cannot be forced, there is nothing wrong with choosing the one you like.”
As for Cathleen liking Teacher Pei, there was originally nothing wrong with that either, but she had used the wrong method.
If she genuinely liked him, then she should have worked hard to get him, but instead of looking for her own problems, she blamed others for everything.
Wen Shiyu muttered a few words in her mind and didn’t want to mention Kathleen anymore.
She turned her words around and urged, “Just now, listening to Mr. Pei’s tone, you should have someone you like?”
Pei Shixi flickered slightly, inexplicably not wanting to deny it.
“Yes, there is one.”
At those words, Wen Shiyu was a little surprised.
Originally, she only wanted to cheat a little, but she didn’t expect to get such great news.
She couldn’t help but ask after her curiously, “Is that someone from our circle too?”
“She is also an excellent violinist.”
Pei Shixi said, his face becoming very gentle.
Wen Shiyu looked amazed and smiled, “It seems like Mr. Bae must like that girl a lot, just mentioning her makes you smile so sweetly.”
“Well, I like her a lot.”
Pei Shixi nodded earnestly at Wen Shiyu, but the smile at the corner of his mouth was tinged with bitterness.
He likes her, but she doesn’t know it ……
After dinner later in the evening, Wen Shiyu went back.
When she returned home, Wen Shiyu cleaned up and then called Feng Shenye on the video phone.
“Why are you back so late today?”
“I went to an auction and bought a lone copy of a poetry collection.”
Wen Shiyu didn’t hide it and briefly told them about the evening’s trip.
