Jian Zhizhen pulled Qin Yubai back to her room.

Qin Yubai was familiar with Jian Zhizhen's room; he had often been there since he was a child.

But I'm always amazed by it.

Unlike the pink and blue decor of her villa in the city, this place has a strong industrial feel. The walls are covered with precision instruments of unknown purpose, and the huge room is crammed full of various machines, all of which she made herself.

She can be a fairy tale princess, or she can be Frankenstein's monster.

She walked to the cabinet next to her bed, opened the drawer, and took out a small wooden box.

She pulled Qin Yubai to sit down on the bedside and said with a smile, "Baibai, this is something I made five years ago. I wanted to give it to you back then, but I never had the chance."

Qin Yubai looked down at the box, feeling... not exactly expectant, but rather with a sense of foreboding.

Jian Zhizhen pressed a button on the box.

With a soft "snap," the box lid popped open.

Inside... was a model of an eyeball!

Chien Chih-chen's skill is undeniable; she not only perfectly recreated the pupil, iris, and vitreous body, but even the blood vessels on the whites of the eyes are rendered incredibly realistically!

Jian Zhizhen stared intently at Qin Yubai: "From now on, I will protect you as if you were my own eyes."

— She had only recently seen this cheesy pickup line online.

She thought it matched the eyeballs she had made herself.

"..." Qin Yubai stared at the eyeball for a long time, not daring to look away.

It's not that I'm afraid this thing is a human organ.

The disco glasses had caused him immense psychological trauma.

He now felt that the things Jian Zhizhen gave him were definitely not good things... no, they must all have unexpected effects.

As Jian Zhizhen watched him refuse to take it, the joy in her eyes slowly faded.

She lowered her head dejectedly and murmured to herself, "Don't you like it? I thought you would like something I made especially for you."

Seeing her like this, Qin Yubai's heart softened immediately, and he cursed himself for being a bastard.

He took the eyeball model.

"I love so much."

I just hope they won't send it next time.

Qin Yubai didn't dare to look closely and casually put his eyes on the bedside table behind him.

After all, his daughter Zhenzhen already has the reputation of being a "military inventor" online.

Turning around and shooting X-rays from one's eyes, or using a unique hidden weapon like a hair needle... these are all too commonplace.

Unexpectedly, the eyeball didn't stay still and rolled to the ground.

Qin Yubai looked down and saw that it hadn't broken.

He bent down to pick up the eyeball, but his lower back accidentally bumped into the cabinet behind him. The cabinet wobbled, and a metal trophy fell off.

*Smack*—The eyeball was smashed.

Qin Yubai picked up the trophy and put it back, saying in confusion, "Why is the trophy on the bedside table too...?"

Jian Zhizhen's eyes drooped immediately, and she said with a wronged look, "You knocked over the trophy and broke the infrared detector I gave you, and you blamed me for leaving it lying around. You're just trying to manipulate me."

Qin Yubai looked down at the tangled wires beneath the broken eyeball shell: "An infrared detector?"

Jian Zhizhen nodded aggrievedly: "Back then, my parents told you that you were doing research for the country and that many foreigners wanted to kidnap you, so I made this device for you. You could wear it and it would detect dangers around you in advance. Who knew, who knew you wouldn't cherish it at all..."

Hearing the sob in her voice at the end, Qin Yubai felt guilty and heartbroken.

Upon closer reflection, I realized I was indeed a worthless person.

My girlfriend meticulously prepared such a delicate and compact infrared detector, and I actually looked down on it at first. What a scumbag!

Jian Zhizhen turned her back, covered her face, and looked extremely heartbroken.

Qin Yubai immediately rushed over and looked at her from the other side: "Don't be angry, I'm sorry."

Jian Zhizhen put on a brave face: "I'm not angry. It's just that you shattered my sincerity and devotion to you. I'm heartbroken and feel like dying."

"..." Qin Yubai had already begun to realize that something was wrong.

She's acting.

She wasn't particularly sad at all.

He looked down again and took a closer look at the clump of thread beneath the outer shell on the ground.

It's probably not an infrared detector, because he didn't see any core detection hardware.

It's probably just some silly thing like a disco light.

When the item broke, and she couldn't bully him, she deliberately started playing the victim so he would coax her.

but.

He clearly understood all of her tricks.

But I still couldn't help wanting to cooperate with her.

Because of her deliberately coquettish and submissive manner, she really hit his weak spot and disturbed his mind.

He reached out, grabbed Jian Zhizhen by the waist, and lifted her onto his lap, his eyes sincere: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. I'll fix it myself later, okay?"

Jian Zhizhen initially thought it was fine to tease him a little, but now that she saw how easily he was fooled, she took advantage of the situation, snuggling into his arms and whimpering, "You broke my heart, you jerk..."

I'm so into character!

Given time, the title of Best Actress will undoubtedly belong to her!

He originally intended to listen to her scolding, but he was tired of hearing the same few words over and over again.

He tightened his grip on her waist, lowered his head slightly, and kissed her, his thin lips slowly and gently rubbing against hers.

Jian Zhizhen had intended to tease him on purpose, but as their warm breaths mingled, she saw a burning light in his half-open eyes…

He... he's quite charming too.

I'll bully him again next time.
