After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

Late at night, in the small room.

An Nuannuan popped her little head out from the bathroom and beckoned to Xu Musen.

Xu Musen walked into the bathroom and saw that Yao Mingyue had already been changed into one of Xu Musen's long-sleeved shirts and a pair of shorts.

Her body, having been soaked in warm water, had recovered some color.

But she still hadn't woken up.

Xu Musen went over, picked her up, and carried her.

After exiting the bathroom, he gently placed her on the bed and pulled the covers over her.

Xu Musen reached out and touched her forehead, thankfully it wasn't very hot, but it seemed like a cold was inevitable.

Yao Mingyue's health wasn't particularly strong, and the most important thing was that she was highly emotionally unstable, which is why she had not woken up yet.

After settling Yao Mingyue,

Xu Musen turned back to look at An Nuannuan.

An Nuannuan was just wearing a thin nightgown, and on her way over she seemed to have fallen.

The knee area of her white nightgown was a bit dirty.

Xu Musen walked over and helped her to sit down on the sofa beside him.

Xu Musen bent down and gently rolled up the leg of her nightgown, and indeed, on the girl's pristine knee, there was now a red mark from the fall.

"Why didn't you tell me you were coming? Look at this fall..."

Xu Musen took out the first aid kit from the store, poured out some medical alcohol, warmed it in his palm, and gently rubbed it on her knee.

The somewhat scalding temperature, combined with Xu Musen's slightly rough palms, made An Nuannuan feel as if an iron had been pressed on her leg.

The lingering pain from the fall seemed to dissipate in an instant.

She uttered a hum.

"Does it still hurt?"

"A little bit..."

"You just started walking again, you can't do this in the future."

Xu Musen said slowly, but by putting himself in her shoes, he probably could guess why An Nuannuan had come in such a hurry.

After all, they were in a relationship now, boyfriend and girlfriend. His girlfriend finding him in a room alone with another girl who liked him in the middle of the night.

It would be abnormal not to think too much about it.

Not to mention bathing and changing clothes for someone else. If it were Xu Musen, he would have drowned the other person in the bathtub already.

Xu Musen watched her slightly emotional eyes. Indeed, even a genuine simpleton would feel jealous at times like these.

Xu Musen, in the presence of his newly official girlfriend,

whispered softly, "Nuannuan, I have already clarified things with her. This was just an accident, don't overthink it."

"I wasn't overthinking, and I'm not angry."

An Nuannuan shook her head, looking at Xu Musen who was carefully applying medicinal alcohol to her scrape, "Actually, I'm quite happy."

"Happy?"

Xu Musen paused, even though today he had come clean with Yao Mingyue, and there was no inappropriate behavior between them.

But due to their identities, and their past,

it would be good if any other girl didn't make a big fuss, so how could they be happy?

"Because I know that all the accidents today happened because of our situation, and you didn't lie or hide anything from me, Xu Musen. I'm really happy you would do this for me."

An Nuannuan's voice was soft, with no hint of anger.

The fact was, An Nuannuan had always been a bit apprehensive about Yao Mingyue, a worry that had persisted for a very long time.

They were childhood friends after all, and the affection of so many years wasn't something that could be built overnight, nor forgotten completely in a short time.

Although An Nuannuan usually wouldn't say it, she actually felt a bit inferior when facing Yao Mingyue, and this inferiority stemmed from many aspects.

Such as her own legs, such as the years of friendship between Yao Mingyue and Xu Musen...

She knew she was an outsider, so even though Xu Musen had hinted at confessing his feelings for her in the past, she always played dumb.

It was because she had always been worried that if Xu Musen turned back... they might not even be able to stay friends.

But today, the unease in her heart had finally found stability.

Moreover, Xu Musen hadn't hidden anything from her. Only by truly respecting and caring for someone could there be no secrets, no suspicions.

The feeling of being loved and trusted completely made An Nuannuan feel exceptionally secure.

As Xu Musen listened to her words, he fell silent for a while.

An Nuannuan was like a silly rabbit, happy for a long time with just a small carrot.

Although what she said was correct, that honesty is the most important thing between two people, encountering such a situation would still make it hard for most to stay rational.

At least Xu Musen himself admitted he couldn't do it. If there was a guy hanging around Nuannuan like a headless fly, he would definitely find a way to swat him dead!

Xu Musen couldn't help but pinch her cheek, "Silly girl, you're happy with just this? Aren't you afraid I might deceive you?"

An Nuannuan blinked, looking at Xu Musen, her calf held in his grasp shaking slightly, "Because I trust you, and even if you did deceive me, I'd still be willing."

An Nuannuan's lips curved into a goofy smile, "My grandma used to say... uh, 'marry the rooster, follow the rooster; marry the dog, follow the dog.'

At that moment, Xu Musen felt a mix of laughter and tears. This silly girl, they had just started dating, and she was already talking about marriage.

But with An Nuannuan's personality, in her world, dating equaled marriage.
