After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

Searching for that point from the past again.

Childhood friends, huh.

Actually, when you think about it, the two of them have never really gone out on a proper date...

Liu Rushuang sat a bit further away, not catching every word of the conversation, but she watched her daughter go from happy to gloomy to dejected.

She couldn't help but sigh.

The two kids had always been fine; how did things suddenly become like this?

However, she did catch the last few words from Xu Musen.

Actually, the reason Ming Yue liked him so much was probably because of this aspect of his personality, as he was always taking good care of people.

That's why Ming Yue relied on him so much and wanted to keep him by her side.

She just hoped that it wasn't too late. Enjoy more content from empire

"Mom, let's go back," Ming Yue suggested.

Yao Mingyue put down the chicken drumstick she had only taken one bite from.

Liu Rushuang nodded, "Okay."

...

Meanwhile, Zhu Yulan took another bite of her chicken wing and said, "Didn't I remember you having a somewhat clueless-looking girl by your side?"

"You mean Nuannuan?"

Xu Musen smiled, "She's just a bit of a dunce."

Zhu Yulan observed his smile, which seemed as if the mere mention of the word Nuannuan made him as happy as someone with an upturned mouth.

"She's not a dunce at all... Maybe she's just that way around you."

Zhu Yulan recalled how last time they were eating together, that girl could render his childhood friend speechless with just a few words.

"You and her?"

"Not together yet," Musen said.

But it was likely to happen soon, considering the two of them sometimes lived together.

He was referring to napping.

"So, that's the reason," Yulan said in a wistful tone. "It turns out boys do prefer cute and easy-to-bully girls."

Actually, Zhu Yulan and Yao Mingyue had a very similar demeanor.

Cool and aloof beauty, the future ice queen CEO.

Of course, if it came to being cunning, even ten Zhu Yulans combined couldn't match Yao Mingyue.

"She's not that young, either," Musen said casually. By his calculation, Nuannuan was a year younger than he was.

Zhu Yulan's action of eating her chicken wing paused as she instantly thought of something massive in her mind.

Then, she couldn't resist looking down at her feet, hmm, the leather shoes she was wearing today were indeed pretty.

Cough, spit!!

She suddenly felt a bit annoyed but didn't know how to vent her frustration, so she just huffed and continued eating, channeling her sorrow into appetite and snatching away the corn Musen had just picked up.

"You're taking the corn too?"

"Mind your own business!"

Women do tend to get angry for no reason.

Musen was used to it; Nuannuan was still his cute little darling.

No matter how he teased her, the most she would do is whimper.

Yulan looked up at Musen who was smiling foolishly, as though he was clearly a smitten young man.

Yulan silently scolded in her heart.

But she couldn't help wondering, if he and that girl made it official, would they still be able to come out and have meals like this?

She genuinely enjoyed this feeling of hanging out and chatting with friends, occasionally bantering back and forth,

Just friends having a meal, Zhu Yulan felt very open about it.

But surely that girl would be a little concerned, right?

Still, she couldn't resist asking absent-mindedly, "Hey?"

"What is it?"

"You still owe me several KFC meals; you're not going to weasel out of it, are you?"

"Of course not. It's just a few KFC meals; I wouldn't run away with my bedding."

Musen responded with a smile.

Yulan looked at his grin and suddenly felt a bit sentimental, wondering why other people's childhood friends... actually look quite handsome when they smile.
