Jiang Mingxin felt a dry heave in his throat.
She was disgusted.
In addition to feeling sorry for Xing Haodong, he also felt angry that his private treasures were coveted and defiled by others.
Listening carefully, he heard Bai Ruoxi's silver bell-like laughter coming from the kitchen. Jiang Mingxin didn't hesitate any longer. He raised his finger and drew a talisman in front of his forehead. Intricate golden patterns instantly appeared on his black pupils, like flames.
Her third eye opened, and many red frames soon appeared in her sight. All the treasures within a radius of one kilometer appeared before her.
But this time, Jiang Mingxin was not searching for valuables, but to bind a "fixed search target".
She originally had this ability, but when she first came here, her ability was greatly weakened, so she couldn't use it. Now her ability has been restored.
Jiang Mingxin stared at Bai Ruoxi's diary and silently repeated the word "bind" in his heart.
Soon, a white inventory appeared in her sight, and the diary appeared on it.
"Bind and confirm this object as a fixed search target."
She used her mind to bind it, and the white item bar kept flashing red, indicating that the binding was complete.
From now on, as long as Jiang Mingxin opens her third eye, she can check and retrieve the coordinates of Bai Ruoxi's diary at any time. No matter where Bai Ruoxi hides it, she can find it.
After closing his third eye, a few beads of sweat appeared on Jiang Mingxin's forehead.
Binding a fixed search target consumes a lot of her mental energy and cannot be used frequently, but that doesn't matter.
She will wait until the critical moment to use this trump card.
After a while, Bai Ruoxi came back with a plate of fruit, with a lively smile in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.
"Mingxin, come and eat some fruit!"
Jiang Mingxin took the whole plate of watermelon from her, picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, then pointed to the table and said, "This model seems to be broken."
Bai Ruoxi's eyes widened instantly, and she rushed to the desk. "What's going on? Wasn't the model fine just now? Oh, this is my second brother's favorite battleship model! Mingxin, you are so careless, how could you break it!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Bai Jiwu ran in quickly from outside the door.
Seeing the battleship broken into two halves, his face suddenly sank.
"Jiang Mingxin, who told you to touch my model?"
Bai Ruoxi quickly grabbed Bai Jiwu's arm and murmured, "Second brother, don't be angry. I saw Mingxin liked this model very much, so I took it out to show her. I didn't expect... Oh, it's my fault for not explaining it clearly to her. Blame me if you want to blame someone."
"You didn't break it, why should I blame you? I spent a whole month putting this battleship together." Bai Jiwu was heartbroken. He picked up the battleship and examined it in his hands. "She's really capable. She broke the bearing right in the middle!"
As he said this, he gave Jiang Mingxin a fierce look.
Bai Ruoxi raised the corners of her lips quietly, intending to admire Jiang Mingxin's pale face, but she was still eating melons calmly, as if it was none of her business, which made her even more angry.
"Jiang Mingxin, how can you still eat watermelon?" Bai Jiwu was furious and wanted to throw the model directly in her face.
Jiang Mingxin looked bewildered and asked innocently, "Why can't you eat it? Didn't Ruoxi give this to me?"
"She's really a country girl, heartless and uneducated!"
Bai Jiwu has a bad temper and is impulsive. Once provoked, he becomes easily outspoken. He threw the model on the table angrily and walked away.
Looking at Jiang Mingxin's expression, it was clear that she didn't understand the value of this model. If he really cared about it, wouldn't he appear particularly ungraceful?
But if he really didn't care, he would get so angry that his ribs would ache.
Bai Ruoxi chased after him and comforted him: "Second brother, second brother, don't be angry, Mingxin definitely didn't mean it, calm down..."
After they left the room, Jiang Mingxin wiped his mouth and fingers with straw paper, picked up the paper and pen on the desk, and started drawing.
When Bai Ruoxi came back sighing, her drawing was almost finished.
"Mingxin, Second Brother isn't usually like that. It was really because you accidentally broke his beloved model that he lost control of himself. But don't worry, he's already agreed not to pursue the matter for my sake."
"Really?" Jiang Mingxin raised his head, put down his pencil, and smiled at her gently: "You knew that it was his treasured model, but you deliberately took it out for me to play with. What was your intention?"
Bai Ruoxi's eyes immediately turned red with grievance, and she said in a hoarse voice, "Mingxin, what are you talking about? If you hadn't said... you wanted to see the model, how could I possibly take it down? I meant well, how could you slander me?"
Without waiting for Jiang Mingxin to speak, Bai Jiwu rushed in angrily from the door and took Bai Ruoxi into his arms.
"Luckily, I was worried and stood outside the door. Otherwise, I wouldn't have known you were treating Ruoxi like this behind her back! You're such a good person, Jiang Mingxin! Because of that interview, I felt sorry for you and felt I was so mean to you before. I even wanted to apologize to you. I didn't expect you to be so scheming."
Jiang Mingxin slowly raised her head and blinked at him, "What about your apology?"
"Pah, with your hypocritical face of saying one thing to my face and another behind my back, why should I apologize to you?"
Bai Jiwu hates two-faced, smooth and worldly people the most, and Jiang Mingxin just stepped into his minefield.
Jiang Mingxin stared into his angry eyes, picked up the blueprint on the table, and shook her head in self-mockery: "I originally thought you were different from others, but I didn't expect that you are no different from those superficial and ignorant men. It's a pity to waste this blueprint... If I had known, I wouldn't have drawn it."
After saying that, she crumpled up the drawing and pretended to throw it into the trash can.
Bai Jiwu instinctively sensed something was wrong and stretched out his hand to block it. "Tell me clearly, what drawings?"
Jiang Mingxin tapped the table and said, "Here are the blueprints for modifying your model, but you probably don't need them now."
After saying that, she left the room without looking back and went to say goodbye to Bai Dingxian.
"Are you leaving now?" Bai Dingxian frowned and put down the newspaper in his hand. "Play for a while longer. I haven't told you about the progress of the Jiang Dawei and Yan Laoer cases yet."
Jiang Mingxin's face was filled with joy: "Has the date for the second trial been set?"
Bai Dingxian smiled and nodded. "Of course it's next Thursday. But you have to go to school that day, so don't go. I'll tell you the result of the trial then."
"That's great. There shouldn't be any accidents this time."
"No, the court has already informed us. Based on the existing evidence, Jiang Dawei's sentence will be at least two years, and Yan Laoer's sentence will be at least five years."
A hint of coldness flashed across Jiang Mingxin's eyes.
Two years... this time is too short!
