Sample Sentences
呵呵,我也发觉了。所谓的上流社会的贵族,大概太习惯于别人的关注和奢侈的生活,所以面对很多事物都波澜不惊。而大多暴发户通常之前都并不富有,一夜暴富后不禁处处显摆,反而和真正的有钱人有些格格不入。
Ha ha, I noticed that too. Aristocrats at the so-called upper reaches of society are probably accustomed to an extravagant lifestyle and being noticed by others. So they don't get excited easily.
