In fact, Jin Yingying was an outstanding child. Not only was she beautiful, she was also very talented. No matter what event she attended, she would be able to impress others. As a result, the couple doted on her very much, even though they knew that she was not their biological daughter.
At this time, Jin Yingying suddenly felt Jin Xi’s gaze, and she began to panic.
“This necklace of yours…”
Hearing this, Jin Yingying couldn’t wait to show off, “ah, this!” As she spoke, she pulled out the pink sapphire hidden in her top, “this is from Aphrodite’s latest collection. It’s not on sale in China yet. Mom asked a friend to buy this for me. It’s quite expensive!”
After that, Jin Yingying leaned her head on Wu Yuyao’s shoulder, putting on a mother-daughter show.
“That’s because you’ve worked hard to get a scholarship. That’s why I gave you a present,” Wu Yuying said with a smile. Her gentle tone was completely different from the mean person she had been outside the villa.
Jin Yingying did not forget to look at Jin Xi provocatively, “look, they’re all mine. You’re so sad. No branded bag, no beautiful clothes, no jewelry, not even a mother’s love. You only have that old bracelet on your wrist. How can it compare to mine?”
“Your necklace looks pretty,” Jin Xi said indifferently.
That’s it?
Jin Yingying thought that Jin Xi would look envious and jealous, but she complimented it casually and continued eating. It was as if she had just complimented a stone by the roadside.
“I heard from Butler He that you stopped going to school when you were very young?” Jin Yida finally brought up the important matter.
Jin Xi nodded in response.
“You’re still young, you should go to school.” After Jin Yida finished speaking, he took out a document and handed it to Jin Xi.
“This is Xifan Academy’s acceptance letter. Go enroll yourself tomorrow. Try to catch up on the things you’ve missed out on.”
Jin Xi glanced at him indifferently and didn’t say anything.
“I’m also studying at Xifan Academy. I’ll do my best to take care of you!” Jin Yingying said obediently.
“Thanks.”
Jin Xi put down her chopsticks, stood up, and went upstairs, not giving them a chance to continue talking.
“Mom, look at her,” Jin Yingying whined.
Wu Yuyao glanced at Jin Xi’s back and said in disdain, “let her be,”
On the second floor, Jin Xi was led to her bedroom by a servant. The room was cold and damp. There was an old bed, a table with peeling paint, and a dusty wardrobe. Looking around, nothing seemed new. The Jin family was so rich, it must be hard for them to get so much old furniture.
The servant seemed to have sensed Jin Xi’s thoughts and said coldly, “Madam said that you might not be used to new things, so she found some of the old furniture that the second miss used to own.”
It was already good enough for her to live here, did she expect more? Dream on!
Jin Xi’s expression didn’t change as she casually said, “I know. You can leave now.”
The servant left the room, but she sneaked a few glances at her.
She happened to see Jin Xi put the things in her backpack onto the bed. There were a few old clothes that looked like rags, a few pairs of rough cloth shoes, and most importantly, there was a stack of yellow talisman paper and a rusted compass! Oh my God! What era was it? How could a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl be so superstitious! Was her brain filled with the water from the mountain village? There must be something wrong with her! The servant rolled her eyes in disgust and closed the door.
Jin Xi, on the other hand, was carefully fiddling with her own things. Her fair fingers gently touched the compass, and a dark red gecko the length of her middle finger climbed onto the back of her hand. The little gecko circled around the back of her hand, seemingly a little annoyed.
Jin Xi gently tapped its little head with her finger, “you think there’s something wrong with this house, right?”
The little gecko nodded.
“I saw through it long ago,” Jin Xi replied as if it was a matter of fact. After saying that, she got up and went to the window. She opened the window and grabbed the air. A wisp of black mist fell into her hand and struggled.
“The Jin family has poor fortune, but they are rich. It must be this,” Jin Xi said, her dark eyes shining.
