Can you please stop hating

After hanging up the phone, Yu Xi sighed. There were so many things going on before that she had forgotten about Chen Wen.

Truth cannot be hidden forever, and she cannot keep it a secret from Chen Wen forever. She really needs to sort out her thoughts and then tell Chen Wen everything.

But now is not a suitable time to worry, so Yu Xi put the matter behind her for the time being and returned to the hall.

Everyone else in the villa was still doing their own things, but Jin Jue and Jin Zhuoxiao were gone, leaving only Wen Yuling sitting on the sofa watching TV.

Seeing Yu Xi coming back, Wen Yuling said, "It's cold outside, you should wear a coat when you go out."

"It doesn't matter. I won't stay long." Yu Xi asked after sitting down, "What about them?"

Wen Yuling: "They couldn't stay idle, so they went to play billiards on the basement floor."

Yu Xi: “Yeah.”

Since Jin Zhuoxiao was not around, Yu Xi was actually a little nervous. She didn't know what to talk about with Wen Yuling. She curled her fingers together and sat more properly than a student in class.

Seeing this, Wen Yuling asked, "Do you want to see Jin Zhuoxiao's old photos?"

Yu Xi was stunned: "Huh?"

Wen Yuling smiled and said, "Come on, I'll take you to see it."

Yu Xi blinked: "Okay."

Wen Yuling took Yu Xi to the second floor by elevator, and then walked to a silver arched double wooden door carved with retro patterns.

After pushing open the door, Yu Xi was shocked by the environment inside.

The room is very spacious, looking as big as two or three rooms. It is filled with many wooden display cabinets, built-in wall cabinets, flat cabinets, free-standing cabinets, center island cabinets, etc.

The key is that every cabinet is filled with collections, including jewelry, cheongsams, and all kinds of things that are dazzling.

The wall cabinets are all illuminated by light strips, and one word to describe it is magnificent. As soon as Yu Xi came in, he felt like he had accidentally entered a museum exhibition hall.

Wen Yuling introduced, "This is my collection room. The things here are a bit mixed. Jin Zhuoxiao's things are in the cabinet further inside."

Yu Xi: “Yeah.”

After reading all this, Yu Xi finally understood why Jin Zhuoxiao said that his father spent more money on his mother. How much money would this room full of collections cost?

It can be said that he has a beautiful girl in a golden house. No wonder Jin Zhuoxiao is so generous with money.

Wen Yuling took Yu Xi to a wall at the end of the room. The display cabinets here did not contain jewelry, but various trophies, medals and certificates.

Yu Xi took a quick glance and found that almost all of them were Jin Zhuoxiao's. There were competition awards, art awards, sports awards and others, all of which were among the top.

These projects are shocking enough even if they are just mentioned, let alone seeing them turned into prizes and piled up in front of Yu Xi.

She looked at the dazzling array of "trophies" and once again renewed her seriousness towards Jin Zhuoxiao, and she did not come back to her senses for a long time.

While Yu Xi was staring at the display case in a daze, Wen Yuling had already taken out several thick photo albums from the drawer of the solid wooden desk in front.

She put the photo album on the desk, turned around and saw Yu Xi staring at the cabinet behind her. She smiled and said, "These are the awards that Jin Zhuoxiao won in previous competitions."

Yu Xi came back to her senses and asked, "Has he learned so many things?"

Wen Yuling nodded and said, "His personality is very similar to his father's. He likes to try new things, and he accumulates a lot over time."

Yu Xi recalled that during their previous time together, Jin Zhuoxiao seemed to be good at many things, including basketball, billiards, tennis, badminton, piano, swimming, and skiing.

Now it seems that he may know much more than she knows, which is really amazing.

"I have a lot of photos of him participating in competitions here." Wen Yuling said as he opened one of the photo albums.

Upon hearing this, Yu Xi withdrew her gaze and walked to the desk.

Wen Yuling pointed to one of the photos and said, "This was Jin Zhuoxiao's first competition. He was only six years old at that time."

Yu Xi looked in the direction of her finger and saw a picture of a little boy sitting in front of a piano. He was wearing a small suit, had his hair combed back, and looked very serious.

Jin Zhuoxiao was quite good-looking when he was a child. Although he was only six years old, his facial features already had the marks of his current appearance.

The bone structure was probably determined at that time. Although the facial features were childish and there was still a bit of fat, the side profile was already well-proportioned.

Yu Xi curled her lips and said, "It's quite cute."

"Well, he was quite cute before puberty, but after puberty he grew like bamboo shoots after rain, and his bones often ached. I even suspected that he was overgrown because he learned too many sports."

Wen Yuling sighed and said, "Jin Zhuoxiao has been taller than other children of the same age since he was young. When he was in high school, I was worried that he would grow to two meters tall, and I couldn't sleep because of it."

Yu Xi couldn't help laughing: "Everyone is worried that their children will grow short, why are you worried that he will grow taller?"

"I think boys should be between 1.8 and 1.9 meters tall. Anything taller than that is a bit too tall and not very good-looking."

Wen Yuling said: "When Jin Zhuoxiao got into trouble at school before, I had to step on a stool to scold him. He had no authority at all."

Yu Xi imagined it and found it quite funny.

Wen Yuling looked at Yu Xi and said, "But I think your heights are quite compatible."

Yu Xi pursed her lips, lowered her eyes and said, "My mother also said before that I was too tall and it would be difficult for me to find a boyfriend in the future."

Yang Huijuan always felt that raising a daughter was pointless because she would get married sooner or later anyway. So since Yu Xi could remember, she had mostly judged herself based on whether she could please men.

It seemed that the more she conformed to the male aesthetic, the higher Yu Xi's value would be, making her feel like an object to be sold, which was very suffocating.

Sensing the change in Yu Xi's mood, Wen Yuling held her hand and said softly, "If you don't try to please others, you will find someone who is more suitable for you. You are good now."

Yu Xi's eyes were a little sore. She found that Jin Zhuoxiao and Wen Yuling's speaking styles were actually somewhat similar. They would not deny her, but would only gently affirm her: "Thank you."

Wen Yuling smiled, took another larger album and said, "This one contains photos of Jin Zhuoxiao when he was younger. They are all here from birth to about five years old."

Yu Xi took a look and found that he was indeed very small and white. He looked at the camera without crying or making a fuss. It was hard to imagine that he would be like Jin Zhuoxiao when he grows up.

There are a lot of photos in the album, and the shooting time is very intensive. It basically records Jin Zhuoxiao's entire growth process. The more Yu Xi looks at it, the more envious she becomes. His parents really love him very much.

However, as I get older, there seem to be fewer and fewer photos, especially after junior high school, the number has dropped drastically.

Yu Xi looked at Jin Zhuoxiao when he was in junior high school and felt that there was no connection between him and his elementary school days.

From the previous photos, you can see that his appearance was changing little by little, but after junior high school, the whole person seemed to change all of a sudden.

His height suddenly grew taller, his cheeks lost their fleshiness, and his temperament became more and more like what it is now.

Yu Xi couldn't help but wonder: "Has he stopped taking photos since junior high school?"
