Gu Mingfeng felt unprecedented panic and suffered from insomnia for two consecutive nights.
But at this point, he had no way out and could only bite the bullet and go to the department store on Friday to buy a dress to give to Jiang Mingxin.
However, he didn't know where Jiang Mingxin lived now, so he could only ask Bai Ruoxi indirectly.
"I don't know either. I was planning to ask my dad. Why... are you looking for her too?"
"Oh, no, I was just sorting out the guest list and suddenly remembered that I hadn't informed her yet, so I asked you."
Gu Mingfeng scratched his chin guiltily.
Bai Ruoxi frowned and thought for a while, then called Bai Dingxian's office.
Bai Dingxian was very pleased to learn that his daughter wanted to invite Jiang Mingxin to his birthday party.
"We should invite her. After all, she's your biological sister. But I don't know where she lives now. Lin Juan seems to be getting closer to her lately. I'll go ask her."
After several twists and turns, they finally informed Jiang Mingxin through Lin Juan.
Gu Mingfeng originally planned to ask her out for a meeting in advance and told her to follow the arrangements on that day, but Lin Juan refused to tell them the number, saying that she had to consult Jiang Mingxin before she could tell him, which made him very angry.
"This Jiang Mingxin is becoming more and more arrogant!"
Bai Ruoxi sighed, "She grew up in the countryside and had no elders to teach her, so it's inevitable that she's so ignorant of etiquette. But since she's been notified, it's good. I'll pick her up at the door when the time comes."
"Why did you pick her up?" Gu Mingfeng realized that his voice was a little loud, and quickly adjusted his tone: "She has legs, she can just walk in."
Seeing how disgusted he was with Jiang Mingxin, Bai Ruoxi breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good. She knows the way, so she won't go wrong."
How could she know that Gu Mingfeng was guilty and worried that her meeting with Jiang Mingxin that day would ruin his plan.
In the blink of an eye, Sunday arrived.
Bai Ruoxi woke up early in the morning and made a bowl of longevity noodles for Bai Dingxian. Then she hurried to the door to greet the Bai family's aunts and uncles, their stern and demanding grandparents, and several uncles and aunts. The whole family was dressed in their best, a grand ceremony.
After settling them, Bai Ruoxi hurried back to put on makeup, changed into a beautiful pink dress, and put on the pink butterfly hairpin that Bai Dingxian bought for her. She dressed up beautifully and went to the gate of the courtyard to greet her two brothers.
Seeing a familiar military vehicle approaching, Bai Ruoxi immediately stood on tiptoe and waved her arms excitedly.
“Big brother, second brother!”
She jumped for joy and ran towards them like a cute rabbit.
Bai Jiwen stepped on the brakes and stopped the car in front of the guardhouse.
Bai Jiwu opened the passenger door, stretched out his long legs and got off. When he saw his sister, his dark and handsome face instantly broke into a doting smile.
"Ruoxi, do you miss your second brother?"
He opened his arms, pulled Bai Ruoxi into his arms, picked her up affectionately and spun her around twice.
"You've lost weight. How did that brat Gu Mingfeng take care of you?"
Bai Ruoxi hugged Bai Jiwu's waist, buried her head in his chest, and sniffed coquettishly, "Second brother, I miss you so much. You haven't been back for half a year. You don't miss me at all, right?"
Bai Jiwu habitually kissed the top of her head. "How could that be? Ruoxi is so cute and well-behaved. I miss you every day. If it weren't for the heavy training in the army, I would love to come back every month."
"Really?" Bai Ruoxi seemed unconvinced. She pouted coquettishly and glared at him with the corner of her eyes raised in grievance and resentment.
Seeing this, Bai Jiwen ran over, not wanting to be left behind, and snatched Bai Ruoxi from Bai Jiwu's arms. He held her up like a baby and tossed her around in his arms, "You've really lost weight. That kid Gu Mingfeng really doesn't know how to take care of people."
Bai Ruoxi giggled, "Brother, don't be like this, I'm not a child anymore~"
"But in my eyes, you will always be that innocent and lovely little Ruoxi. Come on, let's get in the car!" Bai Jiwen carried her into the car and put her in the back seat. He took out a Barbie doll from somewhere and handed it to her: "I bought this for you at the department store. Do you like it?"
"I like it!" Bai Ruoxi hugged Bai Jiwen's neck tightly and kissed him, "Brother is the best!"
Bai Jiwu was so angry that he glared, "Brother, when did you buy the doll? How come I didn't know?"
Bai Jiwen raised his eyes proudly, "You were allowed to secretly send dried fruit to Ruoxi last time, but you didn't allow me to buy a gift? I'm Ruoxi's favorite brother, understand?"
Bai Jiwu rolled his eyes in disgust.
When the three siblings entered the courtyard talking and laughing, Jiang Mingxin walked out from under a tree with a strange look on his face.
She had known that Bai Ruoxi had a good relationship with the Bai brothers, but she had never expected it to be this "good".
Does Gu Mingfeng know?
If he still thought Bai Ruoxi was innocent, gentle and cute after knowing this, then she would really give her a thumbs up and say "I admire you"!
She didn't want to come to this birthday party.
But when she thought that Bai Ruoxi might have prepared some "big gift" for her, she changed her mind.
I made a birthday peach myself and bought a cake box to put it in, as a birthday gift for Director Bai.
But as soon as she reached the guard post, she was stopped again.
"Why you again?"
Jiang Mingxin glanced at the security guard helplessly, "I was just about to say, why is it you again?"
The security guard still remembered the last time she stopped Director Bai and reported her own father on the spot. He sneered, "Why, you succeeded last time, and now you're trying to get close to Director Bai again? Who are you to qualify for Director Bai's birthday party?"
