After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

An Nuannuan clenched her little fists, seeming a bit tense as if she were psyching herself up to be brave, as if being someone's girlfriend made her as nervous as if she were asked to be the emperor.

Xu Musen looked at her like this and felt his heart about to melt; she was indeed a simpleton.

Xu Musen rubbed her cheeks, "It's okay, it's also my first time being someone's boyfriend in this life, so please give me your guidance in the future."

Xu Musen wasn't lying; this was indeed his first time being in a relationship.

"Mhm, hehe~"

An Nuannuan nodded her head and revealed a silly smile, a rarity for Nuannuan who usually didn't smile much.

But lately, she too had learned to smile, with the corners of her mouth turning up ever so slightly, her dazed and cute face always possessed a kind of magic that made people feel extremely comfortable at first glance.

In love.

Yet, the way they interacted didn't seem to have changed much.

Perhaps one could say that their relationship before becoming boyfriend and girlfriend hadn't been much different.

In fact, this way of being in love might be the right one, with no unexpected impulses, everything just naturally falling into place without a spoken word.

The night grew darker, and the temperature dropped lower and lower.

Xu Musen looked at An Nuannuan, his little girlfriend, "Then, shall we head back?"

"Mhm."

He took her hand, and together they slowly started walking back into the school.

The world is wonderful.

In the morning when they left the school gate, they were lifetime best friends.

By evening, they had become boyfriend and girlfriend.

Xu Musen held her hand, now with a bit of pride.

"By the way, Nuannuan, are we going to tell your family about our relationship?"

Xu Musen asked.

An Nuannuan's large eyes blinked, her cheeks turning red, "My grandparents... they already know."

Xu Musen was taken aback for a moment, looking down at her. They already knew?

So that meant... An Nuannuan had been ready for this all along?

This feeling of being watched from early on, why did it feel so familiar?

"So it seems... Nuannuan, have you been plotting against me for a long time?"

Xu Musen looked at her seriously.

Seeing her gaze shift away slightly, her big eyes filled with bashful but still shining brightness, she spoke as she looked at her legs which could now slowly walk again.

"Yes, I've wanted to be with you for a long time, but I was afraid that if my legs didn't heal... Now, I can finally express it."

An Nuannuan didn't hide her true feelings, even though she was very shy, her words were still so genuine and pure.

Only then did Xu Musen remember, every time he approached the subject indirectly, she would act dumbfounded.

And she would also glance at her legs from time to time.

An Nuannuan's legs, in the days gone by, had almost been lost.

A sensation that common people couldn't understand.

Even for a simpleton like her, there were inevitably feelings of insecurity inside, afraid of becoming a burden to him.

So she always waited until she could finally walk slowly before she dared to reveal her feelings.

Understanding, to the point of being heart-wrenching.

Xu Musen looked at her, smiled, and said, "Actually, I also told my mom a few days ago."

An Nuannuan's eyes blinked in surprise, suddenly feeling a bit nervous, "Ah, what did you say to Auntie...?"

"I said that I've fallen for a girl named An Nuannuan, but I wasn't sure if she liked me back yet, so I was just waiting for the notice."

Xu Musen answered with a smile.

An Nuannuan's steps felt a bit wobbly, "How could you say it so early..."

Since ancient times, the relationship between a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has been rooted deep in the genes of women.

"Didn't you also bring it up early? Maybe that's our understanding of each other," he said with a smile, "Don't worry, my family respects my decisions a lot."

Suddenly touching on the subject of parents, An Nuannuan was a bit nervous, stammering without being able to speak clearly.

"Nervous? You should have seen how calm I was when I met your family; parents are actually easy to talk to."

Xu Musen said, trying to comfort her as he looked at her nervously fidgeting figure.

He finally understood why the last time he met the old gentleman and An Nuannuan's father, they seemed to carry some "antagonism" toward him.

Turns out, An Nuannuan had already sold him out beforehand.

An Nuannuan pursed her lips, looking at Xu Musen's grinning face, she hummed, "Because you're thick-skinned."

"...Nuannuan, don't think that just because you're my girlfriend now, I won't bully you anymore!"

Xu Musen reached out to pinch her plump cheeks, unable to hold back his laughter, "Look, it's really your face that's thick."

"It's you, it's you..."

An Nuannuan also reached out to pinch his face.

The two of them teased and played, and soon, they had arrived at the entrance of Nuannuan's female dormitory building.

The two of them, now with their relationship confirmed.

But it still felt like nothing had changed.

They arrived at the dormitory building.

There was never a lack of male college students keeping watch at the female dormitory.

Many couples were still hugging each other, reluctant to part.

This pungent smell of love, Xu Musen finally didn't have to envy anymore.

"Xu Musen..."

An Nuannuan suddenly called out to him.

"What's the matter?"

"It's just... I feel like, why does our dating feel just like before..."

An Nuannuan didn't quite understand; although she didn't know what people usually did while dating, there must be some changes, right?

Xu Musen found it difficult to answer her because others would only start getting physical after they started dating.
