Can you please stop hating

After class, Yu Xi turned on her phone and found that Yang Huijuan had sent her a message.

When I clicked on it, I saw that it required money again.

Mom: [It’s the beginning of the month, where’s the money for this month? ]

Only then did Yu Xi realize that today was already November 1st and she had transferred five thousand.

Yang Huijuan accepted it almost immediately, but didn't say a word.

Yu Haijian died of a stroke during the summer vacation after Yu Xi took the college entrance examination. The family's main breadwinner was gone. In order to cut down on expenses, Yang Huijuan wanted Yu Xi to get married or work after school.

If Yu Xi is unwilling, Yang Huijuan will blame Yu Xi for Yu Li. She says that if it weren't for Yu Xi, Yu Li would not have died, and she wouldn't have to give birth to Yu An at an advanced age, causing the family to be unable to support themselves now.

In fact, their family was not poor. When Yu Li was alive in the early years, Yu Haijian and Yang Huijuan both worked and had a good income.

It was not until Yu Li passed away that Yang Huijuan resigned from her job and gave birth to Yu An. In order to take better care of Yu An, she became a full-time mother.

Yu Haijian has been working alone over the years and has saved a lot of money, which is more than enough for them. Yang Huijuan just doesn't want to spend the money on Yu Xi. Yu Xi knows all this.

Yu Haijian and Yang Huijuan only wanted a son. If it weren't for their twin brother Yu Li, Yu Xi might have been aborted long ago.

She has been a bystander since she was born, and Yu Li is the only one in the family who truly loves her.

In Yu Xi's eyes, Yu Li is the most perfect person in the world, handsome, well-behaved, excellent in grades, gentle and cheerful.

Yu Li was the pride of his parents and the brother who doted on Yu Xi the most, so his death was a complete disaster for everyone in the Yu family.

Even now, when she mentioned it, Yang Huijuan would cry. She hated Yu Xi so much and often cursed Yu Xi why she was the one who died instead of him.

Yu Xi would often wonder why she was not the one who died and why she was craving for candied haws at that time.

If she hadn't wanted to eat, Yu Li wouldn't have been hit by an out-of-control car while crossing the road to protect her. All the fault was hers.

Yu Xi bears the crime, she has to compensate Yang Huijuan, live for Yu Li, and take care of this broken home for Yu Li.

Looking at the chat interface full of transfer information, Yu Xi's eyes became moist.

Brother, I will take good care of mom and brother for you. Are you okay over there?

Huazhong University of Science and Technology recently held a music competition. Students from all majors, except music majors, could participate on their own.

There are two rounds in total in the competition, the preliminary round and the semi-final. The final champion will receive a prize of 1,000 yuan. For the sake of the prize, Yu Xi signed up.

The preliminary round was held in a music classroom, with a cappella performance without accompaniment. There were about forty or fifty contestants, and Yu Xi saw Zhuo Yiyao was there too.

In order to speed up efficiency, each person only sings a paragraph, and five judges give scores. The highest and lowest scores are removed and the average is taken. Finally, the top ten contestants advance.

After a round of screening, Yu Xi and Zhuo Yiyao both successfully entered the semi-finals.

After hearing the result, Zhuo Yiyao looked at Yu Xi with great pride, then turned and left the music classroom.

Yu Xi: “…”

Qiao Yining said excitedly: "Yu Xi, you sing really well. Congratulations on advancing to the finals."

Li Xingchen: "Yes, congratulations."

Yu Xi smiled faintly: "Thank you."

Chu Yang: "Let's go out for dinner to celebrate?"

Qiao Yining: “Okay.”

The four of them went to the mall to eat Haidilao. After the meal, Chu Yang clamored to watch a movie, so they went upstairs to watch a movie.

The movie was quite interesting. After it ended, Qiao Yining and the others were still discussing it. Yu Xi was listening quietly. Unexpectedly, she ran into Jin Zhuoxiao and Zhuo Yiyao at the entrance of the cinema.

Zhuo Yiyao was holding two movie tickets in her hands, obviously she was also here to watch a movie.

Jin Zhuoxiao glanced at the four people and his eyes fell on Yu Xi's face: "Are you guys on a date or a party?"

Yu Xi: "It has nothing to do with you."

Jin Zhuoxiao narrowed his eyes.

Zhuo Yiyao frowned and glared at Yu Xi, then looked at Jin Zhuoxiao and said in a delicate voice, "Brother Xiao, the movie is about to start, let's go in quickly."

"Yes, you guys go in, we'll leave first." Yu Xi said and left without hesitation.

After entering the elevator, Chu Yang glanced at Yu Xi and asked, "Is Jin Zhuoxiao together with Zhuo Yiyao?"

Qiao Yining: “I don’t know.”

Li Xingchen: "I thought Jin Zhuoxiao liked Yu Xi."

Seeing that they were all looking at her, Yu Xi said calmly, "He just likes to tease people, he doesn't really like me."

"So that's how it is," Chu Yang's eyes were filled with joy, "No wonder he's with Zhuo Yiyao again now."

Qiao Yining: "But if it's like what Yu Xi said, they may not be a couple."

Li Xingchen: "It's hard to say, after all, Zhuo Yiyao is pretty."

Yu Xi was not interested in discussing who Jin Zhuoxiao liked. She just wanted to go back to school. The elevator door opened and she walked straight out.

As soon as she left the mall, Yu Xi received a message from Jin Zhuoxiao. She glanced at it but didn't click it.

After getting in the taxi, the phone rang again, and Yu Xi clicked it to check.

FREE: [Are you really attracted to Chu Yang? ]

FREE: [Not replying to me? ]

Yu Xi: [It has nothing to do with you, just go on with your date. ]

FREE: [Jealous?]

Yu Xi was speechless and casually set his messages to do not disturb, and she instantly felt quiet.

The semi-finals of the music competition were held in the school concert hall. This time there was accompaniment, a stage, and the contestants were allowed to finish singing the song, so there were many spectators who came to watch the competition.

"Yu Xi, don't be nervous, we will all cheer for you from the audience." Qiao Yining looked even more nervous than Yu Xi.

Li Xingchen: "I feel like you can win the championship as long as you play normally."

Chu Yang nodded: "Yes, I think you sing the best and will definitely win."

"it is good."

Yu Xi smiled. This was the first time someone accompanied her to an event. She felt that she wouldn't be too sad even if she didn't win the championship.

Qiao Yining suddenly pulled her and whispered, "Jin Zhuoxiao is here."

Li Xingchen: "Where?"

Qiao Yining: “Very far back.”

A few people looked towards the back row and found that Jin Zhuoxiao was sitting almost at the back of the crowd. Zhuo Yiyao was standing next to him, and no one knew what she was saying to him.

Jin Zhuoxiao leaned back in his chair, looking relaxed. He listened to Zhuo Yiyao talking, but his eyes were on Yu Xi.

Seeing Yu Xi looking at him, he curled his lips, and Yu Xi immediately looked away.

Zhuo Yiyao: "Brother Xiao, who do you think will win between me and Yu Xi?"

"Yu Xi."

Without even thinking, he answered in a tone that was so certain that it seemed like an indisputable fact.

Zhuo Yiyao was naturally unconvinced and said angrily, "I think I will win. Do you want to bet?"

Jin Zhuoxiao: "Okay."

Zhuo Yiyao: "If I win, you have to watch a movie with me again."

Jin Zhuoxiao hummed lightly.

Seeing that Jin Zhuoxiao didn't say anything, Zhuo Yiyao asked again: "If I lose, what do you want me to do?"

Jin Zhuoxiao: “No need.”

"..." Zhuo Yiyao bit her lip. Jin Zhuoxiao obviously didn't think she would win, so she didn't care. "I will definitely win!"

After saying this, Zhuo Yiyao ran backstage to make preparations.

The order of going on stage in the semi-finals was decided by drawing lots. Yu Xi was unlucky and drew the last one, so she could only wait.

Zhuo Yiyao was the third one. She came early to prepare and even made a provocative remark to Yu Xi when she passed by.

"I will never lose to you."

Yu Xi looked at her in confusion, not understanding why Zhuo Yiyao couldn't stand her among ten contestants.
