I see. So we are looking to decrease the size, not increase it. (I also assumed we were talking about a disk image.)
OP, what are you using as the backing storage device? That is, are you using a disk image or a block device?
If you are using a disk image, what format is the image? QCOW2? RAW? Something else?
* Use "qemu-img info disk.img" to determine this. Execute this command on the host.
If you are using a block device, knowledge of your file system structure (on the host) will be necessary.

KVM not Xen according to original post - and the partition in the
guest has already been resized with gparted, so no reason to perform
any more actions within the guest - only thing missing is to resize
the qemu image on the host (I assume the OP is using regular
file-based images in virt-manager as nothing has been mentioned about
this, eg. not iSCSI, NFS, LVM, etc.).
