After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

Chapter 30: Chapter 30: The Darkening Girl, Ripples in Her Heart.

In KFC, Xu Musen also suddenly felt a chill.

But at this moment, the little girl who had just bumped into An Nuannuan ran over.

She held a cute toy in her hand, a little shy, but when she saw Xu Musen's smiling face,

she then looked at An Nuannuan and said, "Big sister, I'm sorry for bumping into you just now. Can I give you this little toy as an apology?"

The toy was the one An Nuannuan had just been eyeing eagerly, the one from the kids' meal.

"It's alright…"

An Nuannuan felt like she shouldn't accept a child's gift but she really wanted it, her little face twisted in conflict.

Then the little girl looked at Xu Musen, and just directly stuffed the toy into An Nuannuan's hands.

"Big sister, big brother, I'm going now!"

The little girl waved at them both and bounced away.

An Nuannuan didn't even have time to call out to her.

"Keep it, the child's thoughtfulness should be appreciated, otherwise she might feel guilty and unable to sleep."

Xu Musen said, smiling, and gently stroked her head.

"Oh~"

An Nuannuan nodded, her tone noticeably cheerier, hugging the toy and admiring it, clearly very fond of cute things.

Having almost finished their meal, they prepared to leave.

However, across the street several meters away, Yao Mingyue's gaze was fixed on Xu Musen's hand resting on An Nuannuan's head.

If looks could kill, Xu Musen would have been decapitated… no, it would have been An Nuannuan's hair that got chopped.

"Ming Yue..." Liu Ruonan also felt Yao Mingyue emanating a dark aura.

Yao Mingyue clenched the bag in her hand tightly. If their arguments and cold wars from the past days were just between them,

her pride and conceit led her to always believe Xu Musen would eventually come back on his own.

After all, over the years they had their share of quarrels, but in the end, it was always Xu Musen who made amends first.

But this time…

There was another girl next to him.

This time, Yao Mingyue finally got a clear look at the girl's face.

That naturally dazed and exceptionally pure flawlessness made even Yao Mingyue's pride falter and admit that the girl was indeed beautiful.

Hence, an unprecedented sense of crisis suddenly engulfed her heart.

"Xu Musen…"

Yao Mingyue couldn't contain the emotions within her, her eyes fixed only on Xu Musen's retreating figure.

She unexpectedly started to cross the street, paying no attention to the oncoming traffic as the light turned green.

"Beep beep beep!!"

A car horn blared frantically.

"Ming Yue!"

Liu Ruonan was startled and quickly grabbed her best friend as the vehicle nearly swiped past them.

Yao Mingyue, caught off guard, twisted her ankle.

"Ming Yue, are you okay?" Her best friend was also terrified, having not expected such an extreme reaction from Yao Mingyue.

Yao Mingyue clenched her teeth. She tried to stand up, but the pain in her ankle prevented her from walking.

"Miss, why did you suddenly come out like that? Let me take you to the hospital!"

The driver quickly got out and offered his help.

"No need."

Yao Mingyue's gaze was filled with the disappearing back of Xu Musen.

"Ming Yue, maybe it's just a misunderstanding. Anyway, since you live so close, it won't be late to ask him tonight,"

Liu Ruonan urgently supported her. Yao Mingyue's ankle was visibly swelling, and the driver kept urging them.

Yao Mingyue looked up again, but Xu Musen had vanished from sight. She bit down on her teeth hard, her eyes swimming with rapid shifts of light.

"Xu Musen… mine…"

...

Over here, An Nuannuan wanted to go to the restroom, so Xu Musen waited outside for her. KFC had an accessible restroom, so she didn't need his help.

As An Nuannuan went to wash her hands, she suddenly saw the little girl who had given her the toy earlier.

"Eh, it's big sister." The little girl was also there to wash her hands, and she greeted An Nuannuan with a slight bashfulness.

An Nuannuan looked at her and touched the stuffed toy in her arms, "Thank you for giving me the toy."

The little girl blushed, twisted the corner of her shirt, and finally, with embarrassment, fiddled with her little braid, "Big sister, actually... the toy isn't mine.

It was the big brother who was with you just now; he gave me money to order a kids' meal on the condition that I give the toy to you."

An Nuannuan listened, her absent-minded peach blossom eyes now clear as if they were a spring of water, at this moment stirred with ripples.

"That big brother is very tall and handsome, and he speaks so gently, hehe, what's the relationship between big sister and big brother?"

Gossip seemed to be in her nature as the little girl asked with a curious expression.

An Nuannuan also blinked, pausing for a moment before slowly saying, "He's a friend, my only good friend."

...

Leaving KFC, Xu Musen couldn't help but feel that An Nuannuan was more spaced out than usual, always hugging the stuffed toy and looking up at him.

Could it be that he had become more handsome?

Xu Musen thought to himself.

He Qiang always felt like today's air was filled with the scent of dog food.

"Qiang Zi, there's one more place, accompany me on one more trip."

Xu Musen patted He Qiang's shoulder.

They arrived at a commercial street.

He Qiang couldn't help saying, "What are you bringing me here for, acting all mysterious?"

"You'll know soon."

Xu Musen smiled and walked on, finally stopping in front of a fishing gear shop.

He Qiang was taken aback.

"Let's go, bro, I said I wouldn't let you down."

Xu Musen laughed and pushed An Nuannuan into the shop with him.

"Handsome guy, you're here." The shop owner seemed to know Xu Musen well and greeted him with a smile.

"Did the fishing rod I ordered last night arrive?"

"It did, let me get it for you."

The owner went to the back cabinet and took out a long box, and Xu Musen pulled He Qiang over.

"Moriko, what's this..." He Qiang had a hunch about what it was, his tone tinged with excitement.

"Open it up and see, it's prepared for you."

Xu Musen smiled.

He Qiang opened the box, and at first glance, he blurted out an exclamation!

"Holy shit! A carbon fiber fishing rod?!"

He Qiang's hands were trembling. As he opened the box and looked inside, there indeed lay an exquisitely made fishing rod that was very light to hold and both flexible and strong.

"Am I dreaming..."

He Qiang stroked the fishing rod back and forth, his gaze passionate, causing Xu Musen to get goosebumps all over.

"Damn it, why do I feel like you're more into touching the fishing rod than touching a girl's silky thighs?"

"You don't understand, carbon fiber is the man's steel silk; it's so damn sexy. This wasn't cheap, right?"

"It's alright, more than three thousand. You supported me by even selling your cherished fishing rod; I can't let your harem go empty, can I?"

"Moriko, you've got loyalty!"

He Qiang was touched in his heart. It was as if he had divorced his own two fifty-to-sixty-year-old worn-out wives and immediately embraced an eighteen-year-old fair and beautiful maid.

What a deal!

He Qiang was so moved he was nearly in tears; this day's dog food hadn't been eaten in vain.

"Moriko, from now on, you're my real brother! Take this card; those big sisters give excellent back massages."

He Qiang, in his excitement, pulled out a VIP card from his pocket.

Xu Musen coughed dryly, mindful of An Nuannuan's gaze.

"Qiang Zi, you've misunderstood me; I really don't enjoy that kind of thing."

Xu Musen painfully pushed the card back.

An Nuannuan blinked her eyes and looked down at her own fair and tender little feet, lost in thought.
