After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

```

This "Xiao Bai," Mother Xu did remember a bit more vividly; she seemed to have grown a few years younger, "Alright, hurry inside, I've cooked some delicious food for you all."

It was lively and bustling.

Xu Musen, knowing he couldn't contribute to the conversation, directly slipped away to the front of his room.

As he was about to hang up his down jacket, he unexpectedly bumped into Yao Mingyue coming out of his room.

Yao Mingyue lifted her eyes to look at him, revealing the slightly sly smile she usually wore, "Yo, what time do you think this is, finally remembering to come home?"

While speaking, she skillfully took the jacket from Xu Musen's hand and hung it on the rack.

This smooth series of actions was just like a wife chiding a late-returning husband.

Only, in their previous lives, it was mostly Xu Musen who would cook and wait for her to come home.

The sudden role reversal was still a bit unfamiliar.

Before Xu Musen could react, Yao Mingyue suddenly reached out and grabbed the scarf around his neck.

"What's this?"

"Nuannuan knitted it."

Xu Musen didn't hide the fact; he took off the scarf – it wasn't fancy, but it was very warm and quite cute.

"Hehe, how nice, a scarf knitted by a girl. To accept it and not marry her would be a sin."

Yao Mingyue's smirk was ambiguous, and as she looked at the scarf in Xu Musen's hands, she seemed a bit unwilling, and yet there seemed to be a strange sense of balance in her competitive desire.

Her hand reached unnaturally into her pocket.

Xu Musen didn't respond to her comment, instead properly placing the scarf and then noticing that his room had been wiped clean.

Even though his mother would regularly tidy up the room, Xu Musen had instructed her that just sweeping the floor would suffice and that she shouldn't touch the things on the tables and in the cabinets.

But now the table was spotlessly clean.

"Did you clean the table?"

Xu Musen was surprised for a moment; the domineering CEO from their previous lives was indeed exceeding his expectations time and again.

He hadn't expected her to now even be capable of doing household chores.

"It was as dirty as a pigsty, I couldn't stand it, so I just wiped it down haphazardly," Yao Mingyue snorted, but seeing the surprise in Xu Musen's eyes, she was somewhat proud.

"To casually wipe it and be this good, you're really amazing."

Xu Musen wasn't stingy with his praise, adopting a manner like he was coaxing a child.

Yao Mingyue felt a bit ashamed, as if he had taken advantage of her, but for some reason, she also felt somewhat blissful inside…

...

They had dinner together.

Bai Xin's arrival didn't feel awkward; as they sat together, they talked about the past.

The most frequently mentioned words were "Ming Yue has been beautiful ever since she was little," and "Musen also always looked like a kid..."

Xu Musen expressed speechlessness, while Yao Mingyue kept smiling proudly.

"Musen didn't cause any trouble for you at school, did he?"

Mother Xu, with her occupational hazard as a parent, always asked the teacher whenever she met one.

Bai Xin gave Xu Musen a meaningful look.

What could she say?

After all, Xu Musen had only attended a handful of classes during the whole semester.

But in other respects, Xu Musen was fairly good: he had started his own brand company, took charge of school activities, found a beautiful girlfriend, bought a car, and was even considering purchasing a house...

One could say that as a college student, aside from the primary task of attending classes which he didn't do well, Xu Musen was excellent in other aspects.

Xu Musen felt a bit guilty.

Bai Xin smiled, "He's very good, respects his teachers, always willing to help others, a good Samaritan, never skips class, a good kid."

Xu Musen coughed, "Tsk! That's targeted!"

Mother Xu was beaming; as a parent, whenever someone praised her child, it made her happy.

Yao Mingyue rolled her eyes from the side, her assessment of Xu Musen: disrespectful to elders, loves tricking people, all business all the time, never attends classes, a big jerk!

After the meal.

Bai Xin naturally went to sleep with Liu Rushuang.

Xu Musen was tasked to escort the three golden flowers back home.

Indeed, the combined beauty of Liu Rushuang, Bai Xin, and Yao Mingyue could almost tilt half the Earth's beauty.

The other half, of course, belonged to his dear little cutie Nuannuan~

Yao Mingyue deliberately slowed down her pace.

Waiting until Mother Xu and Aunt Bai had entered the villa.

She then paused slightly in her footsteps, standing together with Xu Musen.

After three days without seeing him, Yao Mingyue missed him too.

Flakes of fine snow were still falling from the sky, landing on Yao Mingyue, as if casting a layer of stardust upon her.

```

Xu Musen also stopped to look at her, and the two of them silently gazed at each other for a while, the tension that used to be present during their past encounters was no longer there.

But it seemed like they didn't know what to say.

So they just looked at each other in silence.

In the end, it was Xu Musen who broke the silence, "It's cold outside, hurry back."

"I knew you would say that."

Yao Mingyue pouted, "Let it be cold, if I freeze to death, no one would care anyway."

Xu Musen laughed, stretching out his hand to gently brush off the snowflakes on her bangs.

"That's not your style to say such things, and besides, there are a lot of people who care about you."

"Do you count among those who care about me?"

Yao Mingyue stared at him intently.

Xu Musen nodded seriously, "Yes."

Yao Mingyue's eyes flickered slightly, but Xu Musen quickly added, "I only have this one godsister, if something happened to you I would definitely be upset."

"Hehehe..."

Yao Mingyue squinted her eyes, "Godsister, verb or noun?"

"?"

"Spend less time on the internet."

Xu Musen said wordlessly.

"Tsk, feeling guilty, are we…"

Yao Mingyue revealed a chuckling smile again, but she was already very happy to hear this answer from his lips today.

"Alright, I'm heading back."

The weather in Zheng City was indeed very cold, it felt even more so coming back from Huhai; Xu Musen was about to turn and leave.

But he suddenly found that the slender figure behind him had surged forward, apparently holding something like a string, which she promptly wrapped around his neck!

For a moment, Xu Musen was a bit scared, wondering if Xiao Sickly Cutie would actually tie him up and take him back to the basement.

He reached out to defend himself, but when he grasped it, he found it was very soft fabric.

He looked down.

A scarf...

The craftsmanship was far from exquisite, but he could feel that it had been made with care, stitch by stitch.

Xu Musen looked at Yao Mingyue, who seemed a bit nervous and expectant, "Did you knit this?"

"Found it in the trash!"

Her standard tsundere retort.

Xu Musen looked at the scarf and smiled, tsunderes are really out of fashion now, but considering how beautiful you are, I'll forgive you.

Xu Musen stroked the scarf, a bit rough, but it was also very warm.

The most important thing was, this was the first scarf Yao Mingyue had ever knitted in her life... no, in these two lifetimes.

A girl's scarf carries a lot of meaning.

"Is it for me?"

At that moment, Xu Musen's first instinct was not to decline; perhaps deep down, he had long been anticipating a scarf hand-knitted by Yao Mingyue.

It was only now that this regret could finally be fulfilled.

"Mhm..." This time Yao Mingyue did not play the tsundere, she nodded, "If you dare to think it's ugly, I'll bite you to death!"

She grit her teeth.

Xu Musen's heart was filled with indescribable feelings; he remembered what Yao Mingyue had just said.

"Hehehe, if a girl knits you a scarf and you accept it, not marrying her is going to be quite difficult to justify..."

At this moment, not a single thought of letting the scarf go crossed Xu Musen's mind; deep down, he felt it was something he had been longing for, something that rightfully belonged to him.

Xu Musen felt like he wasn't a good person.

But if he were to return the scarf, it would be even worse than being a beast.

"Thank you, I really like it."

Xu Musen chose to be a bad person.

Yao Mingyue's eyes lit up, "You're keeping it?"

"Having second thoughts?"

"No, just don't you regret it."

The two of them gazed at each other silently, then broke into a smile. Read latest stories on My Virtual Library Empire

"Good night?"

"Good night."

Though there was a bit of light snow, the moon was truly round.
