"Excuse me...uh...do you teach lessons on how to play the lyre.." Xiao nervously asks the little Liyue bard who performs at the Inn from time to time.
"For 500 mora I do!" the bard grins. Xiao sighs.
"Okay..."
The small man hands Xiao his lyre and starts to lecture him on "the ways of a bard." He wishes that Venti could teach him, but he knows that won't happen, so he settles for this.
It's better than nothing.

Why are you trying to win him back, do you regret being so selfish now?
What changed?
"What changed is that I'm not listening to you anymore..." grumbles Xiao, whose fingers are caloused from playing the lyre's rough strings all day.
Two weeks have passed since Venti went back to Mondstadt, and Xiao barely knows how to play.
"It's a lot more complicated than I expected..."
"Well of course it is! Being a bard is hard work, you know.."
Xiao shrugs. "Well I know that now..."
