After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

Chapter 136: Chapter 103: The girl is still young; it's illegal.

Regarding the childhood marriage promises,

Xu Musen felt they definitely existed.

When he was a kid, he heard his parents joke about it, but such promises were usually just verbal and taken as jokes.

It was common for close friends to sit together, drink, brag, and on a whim become sworn brothers or promise their children to each other in jest.

Unless there was some written documentation, there wasn't much to it.

However, in this day and age, those so-called childhood marriage promises were long gone.

"It was all just childhood jokes. When I was a kid, I even said I wanted to marry Wang Zuxian, but matters of the heart are best figured out on one's own," Xu Musen said with a smile, shaking his head.

An Nuannuan gave an 'oh', with a slightly brighter tone, blinked, and then spoke again.

"I heard from my grandparents that they were paired up through a childhood marriage promise, and they're still living happily together," An Nuannuan said, nodding at him.

"The past and the present are not the same. People back then didn't meet a lot of others, and it was considered lucky to meet just one, but today people have a multitude of choices in this colorful world,"

Xu Musen said slowly.

An Nuannuan pondered, as if remembering something, "Oh, is that like those people on the internet who 'eat from the bowl and look into the pot' or those who have multiple relationships at the same time?"

"...I just like making friends,"

Xu Musen coughed dryly, having seen those outrageous headlines himself. He hadn't even done anything yet, so how had he become labeled a playboy?

"I wasn't talking about you,"

An Nuannuan curved her lips into a smile.

"..."

"I mean I have a friend, He Qiang, you know him, right? He really likes making friends," Xu Musen hastily threw his good buddy under the bus.

"Hmph."

An Nuannuan didn't believe him.

The two arrived at the dormitory building.

An Nuannuan suddenly tugged on Xu Musen's sleeve, her pretty face hesitating slightly, perhaps a bit tipsy from the red wine, as if she had finally made up her mind.

"Xu Musen, could you perhaps not always be... fooling around with friends?" Stay informed via m-vl-em,pyr

Xu Musen looked down and smilingly asked, "Why?"

"Because Aunt Xiang said that there are many bad people out there, and boys like you who... flatter too much can easily be deceived,"

An Nuannuan quickly explained, changing the subject.

But Xu Musen's lip twitched, you mean 'simp', right?

Could he ever shake off this label?

Xu Musen felt a tearless grief as he looked down at An Nuannuan's expectant eyes and her fair face flushed with a tipsy redness.

She was as enchanting as the glass of red wine she drank today.

At that moment, a gentle breeze blew, warming the space between them like the summer wind.

"If I never fool around with friends, what am I going to do if no girl likes me, and I end up a bachelor?"

An Nuannuan had no expression on her face, but her little hands subconsciously clenched her skirt.

"I can introduce you to someone,"

"You will introduce me? Do you know many friends? I bet the girl you're most familiar with is your younger sister, right?" Xu Musen couldn't help but laugh as he asked her.

This naive girl didn't have any friends around her, if he waited for her to introduce him, Xu Musen was afraid he'd truly remain a bachelor for life.

However, An Nuannuan quickly shook her head, "Nannan is still very young."

That would be illegal.

"..."

Xu Musen was at a loss for words. He was no lolicon!

What's so good about little girls who neither have curves nor are mature?

As a mature man, he actually preferred the mature 'older sister' type, at the very least in terms of figure.

Xu Musen looked at An Nuannuan. Her legs had healed a lot by now. They had seemed a bit too skinny before, but now they had become slightly more plump.

And An Nuannuan's flame pocket on her chest was really nice.

Nannan was still young, but her sister was just right!

"So, what should I do? How about you be my backup?"

The evening breeze was pleasant, and riding on the momentum of the wine he'd drunk, Xu Musen unconsciously made the suggestion.

An Nuannuan's big eyes blinked, seemingly not quite understanding the meaning of his words.

The air seemed to grow a little quieter.

Xu Musen suddenly felt like he recaptured the foolish feeling he had when he unsuccessfully chased Yao Mingyue in his previous life.

Sorry, I got carried away again...

He looked up at the streetlight, thinking that the light bulb was really too damned bright!

"Xu Musen."

"Yeah?"

"Would you accompany me to meet my parents this weekend, please?"

"Huh?"

Xu Musen snapped back to reality and met An Nuannuan's slightly reddened face.

Wait a minute, aren't you moving too fast?

Skip dating and go straight to meeting the parents?

"My grandparents want to see you, to thank you for taking care of me,"

"I see."

Xu Musen couldn't tell whether he was more relieved or disappointed, but he ended up smiling, "Alright, I'll accompany you then."

"Mhmm!" An Nuannuan was very happy, and Xu Musen continued to push her along.

But An Nuannuan's gaze stayed on Xu Musen, her clear peach-blossom eyes rippling.

She wasn't sure if it was the alcohol, but she felt as if Xu Musen was now seen through a filter in her eyes.

They arrived at the dormitory building.

Under each tree beside the girls' dormitory stood a couple, holding each other and unwilling to part.

This was also one of the characteristics of college life.

Xu Musen had never had a proper relationship throughout his university years.

Yao Mingyue was too dominant, and he could hardly experience the sweet and sour back-and-forth of a relationship.

As for An Nuannuan, she was too naive, and Xu Musen didn't even know how to start a relationship with her.

Was he going to spend another year of college alone?
