Can you please stop hating

Coming to Tiansheng again, Yu Xi felt complicated.

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar environment in front of me, I feel that time has passed so quickly.

When the two arrived at the chess and card room, Zhang Yichi was chatting with Liang Mo. When they heard the door open, they all looked over.

Zhang Yichi said with a smile: "You are finally here, come to the table quickly."

Jin Zhuoxiao glanced at him and said calmly: "Next time, just send me a message once, don't send me a long string, or I will block you."

Zhang Yichi: "Who told you not to reply to my message?"

Jin Zhuoxiao: "What happened to my phone being muted during my nap?"

Zhang Yichi raised his eyebrows: "Hey, when did you develop the habit of taking a nap?"

Jin Zhuoxiao: "What do you, a single guy, know?"

"...Shit," Zhang Yichi laughed angrily, "You didn't even know what you were doing when I was talking."

Jin Zhuoxiao said calmly: "So? Aren't you still alone now?"

Zhang Yichi: “…”

Yu Xi couldn't join in their conversation, which was quite awkward.

Liang Mo interrupted at the right time: "Let's start."

Yu Xi sincerely felt that Liang Mo made her feel particularly safe in certain situations. Although he didn't talk much, he was usually very insightful.

Especially when the situation is awkward, Liang Mo is the most tactful and most suitable for adjustment, and his emotions are so stable.

During the New Year holidays, Yu Xi played mahjong a lot at Jin Zhuoxiao's parents' house, so her skills had definitely improved a bit, but she was still not good enough to compete with the three veterans, Jin Zhuoxiao.

But she was here just to kill time, so it was no big deal to run along.

It was already past three in the afternoon when the two arrived. After playing a few rounds of mahjong, it was time for dinner before they knew it.

Another round ended, and Zhang Yichi said, "I'm hungry, let's find a place to eat?"

Jin Zhuoxiao: "Okay."

Yu Xi whispered to Jin Zhuoxiao: "I'm going to the bathroom first."

Jin Zhuoxiao: “Yeah.”

Yu Xi came out of the bathroom and ran into Zhuang Lan as soon as she reached the door of the chess and card room. She smiled and greeted her, saying, "Sister Lan, long time no see."

Zhuang Lan saw her and smiled, "Long time no see. I just happened to be looking for you."

Yu Xi was a little surprised: "Looking for me?"

"Well," Zhuang Lan said, handing her the small paper bag in her hand, "This is your necklace."

Yu Xi looked at the familiar jewelry box in the paper bag and was stunned. She took it and asked, "Didn't you return it to Jin Zhuoxiao at that time?"

Zhuang Lan said tactfully: "The young master didn't want it, so I kept it temporarily. Now it's time to return it to its original owner."

Yu Xi could guess that Jin Zhuoxiao must have been very angry at the time, and wondered if he had implicated Zhuang Lan, so she said guiltily, "Thank you."

Zhuang Lan smiled and said, "It's okay. I have something else to do and I'll leave first."

Yu Xi: "Okay, goodbye, Sister Lan."

Zhuang Lan: "Goodbye."

After Zhuang Lan left, Yu Xi walked into the chess and card room with the necklace.

Jin Zhuoxiao had been waiting for her. Hearing the noise, he stood up and said, "Let's go."

Yu Xi: "Where are Zhang Yichi and the others?"

Jin Zhuoxiao: "I asked them to go to the hotel to order food first."

Yu Xi: "Okay."

Jin Zhuoxiao glanced at the paper bag in her hand and asked, "What are you holding?"

Yu Xi: "The necklace you gave me before."

"..."

Jin Zhuoxiao was silent for a moment, then asked, "Did Zhuang Lan give it to you?"

Yu Xi: “Yeah.”

After another moment of silence, Jin Zhuoxiao didn't ask any more questions, but just said calmly, "Let's go."

Yu Xi: "Okay."

In fact, both of them knew that it was not a happy memory for them, so they tacitly agreed not to mention it again.

The appearance of this necklace was like a small stone thrown into the hearts of the two people, causing ripples but not much of a stir.

They had a harmonious dinner together. After dinner, Zhang Yichi and Liang Mo separated and went to the supermarket as agreed before, buying a lot of vegetables and fruits.

It was not until before going to bed that Yu Xi remembered to take the necklace out of the paper bag.

She opened the box and saw the necklace lying quietly inside, exactly the same as she remembered, but it made her feel emotional.

"If you don't like it, throw it away." Jin Zhuoxiao's voice came from behind.

Yu Xi turned around and found that he had just finished taking a shower and came out. She explained, "I don't dislike it, and I won't throw it away. I'm just going to move it to another place to put it."

Jin Zhuoxiao didn't say anything.

Yu Xi was afraid of triggering bad memories for Jin Zhuoxiao, so she opened the drawer of the dressing table and put the necklace and the pair of glass magnolia earrings in the same jewelry box.

After putting it away, she changed the subject and asked, "Where's the jellyfish pendant I gave you? Did you throw it away?"

Jin Zhuoxiao: "..."

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Yu Xi knew what was going on.

In fact, Yu Xi could understand the behavior of throwing away the gifts given by the ex after breaking up, but she still felt a little disappointed in her heart, after all, it was something she did with her own hands.

However, Yu Xi had no intention of bringing up the past, she just suddenly remembered and asked.

Only now did she realize that she shouldn't have asked that question. She was just about to say something else to change the subject when she saw Jin Zhuoxiao suddenly approaching her.

He opened the top drawer on the right side of the computer desk, took out a rectangular vintage wooden box, and said, "It's in here."

Yu Xi was stunned for a moment, then opened the lid and saw the jellyfish pendant lying inside, but one of its tentacle seemed to have separated.

She picked up the jellyfish and looked at it carefully. She was sure it was broken, and asked uncertainly, "Was it damaged by the box?"

Jin Zhuoxiao: "No, it was the day you gave the necklace to Zhuang Lan that I accidentally knocked over the display stand with my phone, and then it fell to the ground and broke."

"……Oh."

Yu Xi was in a subtle mood. Some things happened very cleverly, as if they were a foreshadowing of something.

She looked at the jellyfish, hesitated and asked, "Do you want to take it to the studio and ask if it can be repaired?"

Jin Zhuoxiao: "No need to repair it."

Yu Xi: “Why?”

Jin Zhuoxiao took the incomplete jellyfish pendant, stroked it and said, "Keep this in mind."

Yu Xi: "What do you mean?"

Jin Zhuoxiao lowered his eyes to look at her and said with a smile: "No matter how well it is repaired, it is not the original one, so I would rather it remain broken. I can take a look at it when I have nothing to do, and it can remind me not to make the same mistakes I made before."

"..." Yu Xi digested Jin Zhuoxiao's words, and said after a moment, "Okay."

Sometimes, to truly overcome a hurdle, what is needed is not forgetting or ignoring, nor is it repairing or covering up.

It is to be able to look back on the past with an open mind, face up to mistakes, warn oneself, and then move forward better.

Yu Xi only now understood that the reason Jin Zhuoxiao didn't mention their breakup much was not to avoid the past, but to keep the lesson in mind and continue to maintain the current harmony.

She agreed with Jin Zhuoxiao's approach. After all, it was not easy for them to be together. Only by cherishing the happiness in front of them could they be worthy of the hardships along the way.

Similarly, remembering past quarrels will help you cherish your current relationship more.

So they don't dwell too much on the past, but the jellyfish pendant doesn't need to be repaired and the necklace won't be thrown away.

Facts have proved that Jin Zhuoxiao and Yu Xi are of the same kind, and Yu Xi would choose the same option as Jin Zhuoxiao.

Because they share the same values, they are a perfect match. From the moment they met, they were destined to spend the rest of their lives happily.

On the first day of school at Hua University, Yu Xi started packing her luggage after breakfast, and then returned to school with Jin Zhuoxiao.

The girls' dormitory was crowded with people coming and going, and the news of their reunion became the biggest gossip of the new school year, and it was widely circulated.

However, Yu Xi didn't pay much attention to it, because she was exhausted just by carrying the luggage upstairs.

After packing everything up in one go, Yu Xicai slumped down in a chair and drank a sip of water. Seeing that it was almost lunch time, she asked, "Yining, do you want to go to lunch together?"

Qiao Yining heard about the gossip in the super chat and knew that Jin Zhuoxiao was waiting for Yu Xi downstairs, so she declined politely, "I'm not very hungry now."

Yu Xi: "Okay, I'll go then."

Qiao Yining: “Yeah.”

Afraid that Jin Zhuoxiao would get anxious, Yu Xi went downstairs without even taking a rest.

After she got in the car, Jin Zhuoxiao asked, "What do you want to eat?"

Yu Xi: "It's all right. I'm starving."

Jin Zhuoxiao: "Then let's go to Chang'an No. 1. I haven't been there for a long time."

Yu Xi: “Yeah.”

Because there were things like distributing books and attending meetings on the first day of school, after lunch, Jin Zhuoxiao sent Yu Xi back to school.

The two were busy with their own things and didn't meet until dinner time. For convenience, they ate in the school cafeteria.

Several old stores closed and several new stores opened in the new semester, so it is still worth a try.

For example, the newly opened spicy hotpot restaurant they went to tasted very good.

After dinner, Yu Xi felt a little full, so she took a walk in the school with Jin Zhuoxiao. Wherever they passed, they were more or less spied on.

Yu Xi felt annoyed, so she pulled Jin Zhuoxiao away from the playground and went to the artificial lake where there were fewer people.

The magnolias here are blooming more luxuriantly than those at Yuehu Mansion, and the trees by the lake are also growing new buds, creating a thriving scene.

Standing by the lake, Yu Xi looked at the lake surface swaying in the night wind, and accidentally caught a whiff of magnolia's scent in the wind.

Yu Xi looked up at the blooming magnolia flowers and murmured absentmindedly, "The flowers are blooming again."

Upon hearing this, Jin Zhuoxiao withdrew his gaze from Yu Xi's face and followed her to look at the magnolia above her head.

Just then a gust of wind blew, and the magnolia on the branches swayed gently in the wind.

Jin Zhuoxiao suddenly realized that the first time he felt soft-hearted was the first time he was moved.

He curled his lips and said softly: "Well, spring is here."

Yu Xi closed her eyes gently, and her nose, ears, and every inch of her skin felt full of vigor and vitality.

Today, she finally walked through the icy abyss and foggy swamp.

At the end of the world, dawn was approaching, and waiting for Yu Xi in the light was a blooming spring magnolia and a man who loved her, Jin Zhuoxiao.
