After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

Chapter 62: Chapter 62: The sicker they are, the stronger they become when you show weakness, like a spring.

Time flew, and ten days of summer break had already passed.

The high school exam scores were about to be released.

Musen Xu was getting ready to go to the driving school to take the first subject test.

The driving school was some distance from his home, and waiting for the bus was too much of a hassle.

So, early in the morning, he rolled out the electric scooter that had been gathering dust at home, wiping it down until it was clean.

As Musen Xu stood up drenched in sweat and looked at the sparkling clean scooter, his shoulder was suddenly patted, and a towel was handed to him.

Musen Xu thought it was his mom who had come down and subconsciously took the towel from his shoulder to wipe the sweat off his forehead.

Eh?

Why was the towel so soft, and why did it smell so nice?

When Musen Xu looked at the towel, he immediately recognized it as a handkerchief that a girl would use.

He turned his head, only to see Yao Mingyue had already appeared behind him, smiling at him.

"Why are you here?" he asked.

"I'm also going to take the subject one test," she replied.

Yao Mingyue took out her driving school student ID from her bag and waved it in front of his eyes.

It wasn't surprising to run into each other at the same driving school; after all, there were only one or two schools in the area.

But Musen Xu always felt that she did it on purpose.

"Don't tell me you'd rather not ride in your BMW and instead are eyeing my little electric scooter?" he teased.

Yao Mingyue's eyes sparkled: "An electric bike has two seats just right, doesn't it?"

"Spare my little bike. It can't carry a 'heavyweight lady' like you," he joked.

"What do you mean by that? Are you calling me fat?" she snapped, taking a step closer to him.

Today, she wore a short-sleeved shirt with a white sun-protection garment over it, and a light blue pleated skirt below.

She seemed less aloof than usual and radiated a youthful lightness.

Especially her long, flawless legs, which shone dazzlingly white in the sunlight, seemed longer than some people's entire lifespans.

Additionally, her regular yoga and volleyball practices meant that she worked on her legs and buttocks at the same time, resulting in the pleated skirt accentuating the curves beautifully and making her slender waist even more prominent.

The only thing that may not have scored as well in the comparison was...

Musen Xu glanced at her arms crossed over her chest and chuckled.

"Musen Xu!"

Yao Mingyue was extremely sensitive to his gaze, and she was immediately annoyed.

Actually, she was quite impressive, okay?

But... would she dare to challenge that girl to a leg comparison?

"You rascal, how did you manage to upset Ming Yue first thing in the morning?"

Just then, Musen Xu's mother came downstairs and caught this scene.

"Auntie, good morning," said Yao Mingyue, her acting skills kicking in as she gently took hold of Mrs. Xu's arm: "He didn't make me angry. He probably just thinks it's inconvenient to carry me on the electric scooter. I'll just take the bus myself..."

There was a hint of subtle grievance in Yao Mingyue's tone.

The corner of Musen Xu's mouth twitched.

However, Mrs. Xu glared at him: "You little brat, Ming Yue never hesitated to give you a lift to and from school in the past. What's wrong with you taking her on your scooter?"

She was somewhat frustrated, wondering how this clueless boy had forgotten how to please a girl.

"Alright, alright, I'm wrong. Is it okay if I take her?" he conceded.

Faced with his mother's commands, Musen Xu, no matter if he was a reborn individual or an immortal sovereign, had to listen at least somewhat.

It was like paying back a favor.

Musen Xu rode the electric scooter, with Yao Mingyue gladly sitting behind him. The scooter wasn't all that big, so she stretched out her hand and gently tugged at the corner of his clothes.

As he looked down slightly, Musen Xu could see two snow-white, long legs.

They set off.

Behind them, his mother was still muttering, "This rascal! When given the opportunity, he doesn't know how to cherish it..."

On the road, the early morning sun wasn't too harsh yet, and the breeze on the roadside felt exceptionally comfortable against their faces.

Yao Mingyue rarely rode on electric bikes, so as she clutched the corner of Musen Xu's clothes, she looked at his broad back, exuding the warmth and reassurance of a man's backbone.

As she thought about it, her cheek got closer and closer to his back, and her hand, starting from the edge of his clothes, began to wander towards the center.

Finally, during one bump in the road, she naturally wrapped her arms around his waist, and her beautiful cheek gently pressed against his back.

"Yao Mingyue," Musen Xu said in a warning tone.

"Who told you to drive so unsteadily, I had nowhere else to grab onto."

Yao Mingyue stated as if it were the most natural thing.

"Can you let go now, then?"

"Pshaw."

Yao Mingyue let go of him.

But inevitably there were speed bumps or some uneven patches on the road.

Every time, Yao Mingyue would find an excuse to cling to him, and she'd even take the opportunity to 'accidentally' brush his abs.

To his dismay, Yao Mingyue's unashamed snuggling, with the delicate softness of a young girl, penetrated through the thin clothing of summer.

It gave Xu Musen a very peculiar feeling, his mind was resistant, but his eighteen-year-old body seemed to disagree with his thoughts.

"Yao Mingyue, your skin is really thick now."

"Look who's talking, at least I'm not cheeky enough to touch someone else's leg."

"…"

Xu Musen could only lean his body slightly forward.

He couldn't let the control stick be taken away.

They arrived at the driving school.

He Qiang had also come on his electric scooter, but his eyes widened when he saw that they had arrived together.

"Hello, He Qiang,"

Yao Mingyue got off the bike, looking completely composed, and even greeted He Qiang.

"Hello, hello…"

He Qiang laughed awkwardly, feeling something was off.

Meanwhile, Xu Musen was still sitting on the electric scooter, steadying his breath.

He Qiang leaned in and whispered to Xu Musen, "What's going on between you two?"

"Just on the way."

"Yeah right, ditching a BMW at home to ride an electric scooter with you?"

"Why don't you go ask her?"

"Forget it, no one but you can stand her coldness."

He Qiang immediately shook his head like a bobblehead, then looked at Xu Musen who was still slightly leaning forward on the scooter: "Aren't you getting off?"

"Blood hasn't returned to my brain yet, feeling a bit motion sick."

"?"

...

The first subject was really too simple, especially for students who just finished their college entrance exams; these questions were child's play compared to what they had seen.

All three passed with full marks.

On the way back, Xu Musen pulled He Qiang, wanting to ride in one vehicle with him.

But He Qiang glanced at Yao Mingyue's expressionless face and suddenly pointed behind Xu Musen: "Eh? Isn't that what's-his-face?"

As soon as Xu Musen turned around, the next moment, He Qiang sped off, ten meters away.

"Just remembered I need to go home and help breed the fish, be right back!"

He Qiang looked back and waved at Xu Musen, then twisted the throttle and disappeared.

"…"

Xu Musen was so amused he wanted to laugh. So much for brotherhood, he thought.

The corners of Yao Mingyue's mouth couldn't help but rise, looking at him somewhat triumphantly.

Xu Musen turned back to look at her and said irritably, "Get on."

Yao Mingyue huffed and got on the scooter smoothly.

The midday sun was a bit agitating, but Yao Mingyue felt that this moment was quite perfect, as her hands slowly wrapped around Xu Musen's waist…

Frankly speaking, sparring with her these past few days felt like a slave turning into a master.

If it had been in his past life, daring to talk to her with such an attitude would have probably meant a night of alphabet games as punishment when he got home.

But now, no matter how unhappy she was, she had to suck it up and deal with it.

His heart, oh, it suddenly felt an indescribable sense of exhilaration.

It was like the boss who had been oppressing you suddenly ended up under your feet, and you even got to fire him.

As long as he didn't live off her, she couldn't do anything to him.

A tsundere is like a spring; if you're weak, she's strong.

Just be tough enough and you can keep her subdued and compliant.

If you can't handle a tsundere, then reinvent yourself to pave a new way!
