Chapter 1861: Water to Wine

"My family is very poor. I believe that even if I gave you a gift, you wouldn't want much to do with it. My boyfriend said that as the daughter of a first-rate noble family, Miss Shi would not appreciate a small gift. But he did get you a gift of his own. He said that the gift would be from the both of us. I hope Miss Shi doesn't mind."

The girl openly admitted to being poor and being unable to buy a gift that Shi Yalin would like. Although this made everyone look down on her even more, the teasing look in the eyes of those trying to make her lose face was now gone.

"Also, because my family is poor, my mother never allowed me to learn the piano. So, I really can't fulfill Xiao Yaxin's request for me to play. However, today is indeed Miss Shi's celebration banquet, and I came empty-handed, so if I don't perform a talent of mine, I'm afraid that it would be dreadfully rude to Miss Shi."
