Can you please stop hating

After lunch, the effect of the medicine took effect. Yu Xi gradually recovered and went to the bathroom to take a bath.

I drank last night and I always smelled like alcohol on my body. I felt better only after I took a shower.

There were no classes in the afternoon, so Qiao Yining and the others lay on the bed preparing for a nap. Yu Xi also went to bed after drying her hair.

But she wasn't sleepy yet, and she was very worried and didn't know what gift to give Jin Zhuoxiao.

Yu Xi couldn't afford a gift that was too expensive, and she was afraid that if it was too cheap, she wouldn't be able to present it. If it was too common, her gift would be the same as others', and it wouldn't look special.

If Jin Zhuoxiao misunderstood that she was being perfunctory, she would never be able to get the bracelet back. It would be really difficult to find something innovative that he might like.

Yu Xi thought for a long time but had no idea, so she sent a message to Qiao Yining: [Yining, what do you think is a good birthday gift for the opposite sex? ]

Qiao Yining: [Who are you going to give it to? ]

Yu Xi: [Jin Zhuoxiao.]

Qiao Yining: [You want to give him a birthday present? ]

Yu Xi: [Well, he helped me before, and I wanted to repay him. ]

Qiao Yining: [Oh, it’s hard to give him a gift. He shouldn’t need anything.]

Yu Xi: [Yes.]

Qiao Yining: [I searched for you. There are shoes, electronic products, clothes, basketballs, etc.]

Yu Xi: [Okay, I'll think about it.]

Qiao Yining: [Okay.]

Yu Xi had also thought about what Qiao Yining said, but it still had some shortcomings. First, it had no characteristics. Second, there would be many people who would give it as a gift, so the chances of seeing it as a duplicate were high. Third, it might not be suitable for her if she bought it.

How could Yu Xi know what size clothes and shoes Jin Zhuoxiao wore? What if she bought something that didn't fit? Who knows how Jin Zhuoxiao would retaliate. It would be better not to give it to her.

After thinking for a long time without any clue, Yu Xi simply searched on the Internet like Qiao Yining did. She changed several platforms, but the results were nothing but the ones Qiao Yining mentioned, nothing new.

As she was flipping through the pages, Yu Xi got bored and started watching short videos unconsciously, becoming addicted to liking the posts of beautiful women.

Just then, she saw a daily vlog of a beautiful woman, which was about making a birthday gift for her good friend.

The video was quite long. Yu Xi watched it patiently and found that the gift she prepared was a DIY lamp-made glass butterfly ring. The finished product looked particularly stunning in the video.

The beautiful blogger also took pictures of other handicrafts in the store, including a jellyfish. Although it only appeared for a few seconds, it immediately touched Yu Xi’s heart.

This one will definitely not clash, and Jin Zhuoxiao likes jellyfish, so it must be suitable! This is it!

After making the decision, Yu Xi immediately looked for places where lamp glass could be made and discovered that there was a studio a few kilometers away from the university town that was open all day with very flexible hours.

Yu Xi looked at the schedule. There was only one class tomorrow afternoon, so she could go directly there after class. Two or three hours would definitely be enough to make a small jellyfish pendant, and she wouldn't be too late when she came back.

She sent a message to Qiao Yining: [Yining, I decided to give him a glass jellyfish. Will you accompany me to burn glass tomorrow afternoon? ]

Qiao Yining: [Okay.]

The next day.

After class, Yu Xi and Qiao Yining went back to the dormitory to put their books away, then took a taxi directly to the studio to burn glass, deliberately avoiding Chen Yingxin.

Today is not a holiday, so there are not many guests in the studio, but Yu Xi actually ran into Ke Lin.

Ke Lin greeted them familiarly: "What a coincidence, you are here to burn glass too?"

"Well," Yu Xi glanced at the girl next to him, "Who is this?"

Ke Lin put his arm around the girl's shoulders and introduced her, "This is my girlfriend Liu Mo."

Liu Mo smiled: "Hello."

Yu Xi: "Hello."

At this time, a clerk came over and said with a smile: "Welcome, are you all here to make glass?"

Ke Lin: "I have a clumsy hand, I came here to accompany my girlfriend."

Qiao Yining: "I am here with my friends."

The clerk nodded: "So there are two customers who want to try it, right?"

Yu Xi: “Yes.”

The clerk said: "We have a lot of finished products here. You two can choose the ones you like first. After you choose, our staff will come to teach you how to make them."

Ke Lin: “Okay.”

Yu Xi said directly: "I want to make a jellyfish pendant."

Shop assistant: “Then please follow me.”

Yu Xi looked at Ke Lin and said, "You guys go and choose. Yining and I will go first."

Ke Lin: “Okay.”

The teacher who taught Yu Xi how to make it was a girl. She was very gentle and patient.

She asked Yu Xi to choose the color of glass she liked. Yu Xi chose a light blue one, thinking it should be similar to the one Jin Zhuoxiao had.

After making their selection, the teacher asked them to put on goggles, first explained the basic operating steps, and then let Yu Xi try it out herself.

The first time I made it was a bit difficult, but with the help of tools and the teacher’s hands-on instruction, the process went smoothly and the results were pretty good.

After the jellyfish head is done, the only thing left is the tentacles, which depends entirely on your preference.

In the video Yu Xi watched, the tentacles of the jellyfish were wavy and of regular length. She felt that this was too rigid and not suitable for Jin Zhuoxiao.

Therefore, the tentacles are deliberately pulled to different lengths and wrinkles, so that they flow like water and move freely, as if they were alive.

The jellyfish head and tentacles are made separately, and it is very easy to connect them together.

The last step is to put it in annealing sand to cool it down, then put on the necklace, and you're done.

The finished product was better than Yu Xi had expected. She felt very accomplished looking at it. Most importantly, it was unique. She couldn’t make a second one like it herself. She was very satisfied with this gift.

Qiao Yining said with sparkling eyes: "So beautiful, Yu Xi, you are amazing."

Yu Xi smiled and said, "The teacher taught well."

The teacher smiled and said, "No, your finished product is very creative."

Ke Lin came over after hearing the sound, took a closer look, and praised, "Hey, it's really good."

Liu Mo asked curiously from the other side: "Take a picture for me to see!"

"Okay." Ke Lin said as he took out his cell phone to take a picture of the jellyfish made by Yu Xi.

After he finished filming, Yu Xi asked, "How's your progress?"

Ke Lin: "My girlfriend is getting better."

Yu Xi nodded: "Then you guys continue, Yining and I will leave first."

Ke Lin: “Okay.”

I didn't feel anything while doing it, and when I came out I found that more than two hours had passed.

It was already getting dark outside and her stomach was growling with hunger, so Yu Xi simply invited Qiao Yining to have dinner at a barbecue restaurant near the studio.

During the meal, Qiao Yining asked, "Yu Xi, are you going to attend Jin Zhuoxiao's birthday party tomorrow night?"

Yu Xi: "Well, do you want to go together?"

Anyway, Jin Zhuoxiao just wants to have fun, so he probably has no objection to who goes.

Qiao Yining: "Xingchen told me about this today. He wanted me to go play with him."

Yu Xi: "Jin Zhuoxiao and Ke Lin have a good relationship, so it's normal for them to go. What's your reply?"

Qiao Yining: "I was a little hesitant before, worried that I wouldn't know anyone there, but now that you're going too, I feel much more relieved."

Yu Xi: "Don't worry, if you don't feel comfortable staying here, you can just come back."

Qiao Yining smiled: "Okay."

On the way back, Yu Xi went to the store and bought a gift box of the right size, which was just right for the jellyfish pendant.

Just after paying the money, I received a message from Jin Zhuoxiao.

FREE: [Don’t forget tomorrow, if you don’t come I will kiss you and cry. ]

Yu Xi: “…”
