After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

Entering the house.

Xu Musen also stepped out of the kitchen and exchanged glances with Yao Mingyue, not sure if it was an illusion, he always felt that although she was smiling, she seemed to have glared at him.

"Welcome, welcome, Nuannuan, you don't need to stay in the kitchen anymore. You guys go to the living room to have some tea and chat... Just eat some fruit and watch TV for a while, dinner will be ready soon."

Xu Musen changed his words mid-sentence, it was best if those two didn't chat if it wasn't necessary.

Xu Musen and An Nuannuan exchanged glances, reminding her of what was agreed upon earlier. An Nuannuan merely blinked.

Then she went to the living room with Yao Mingyue.

Xu Musen leaned over to look and, indeed, An Nuannuan and Yao Mingyue were drinking tea.

They looked quite harmonious.

Only then did Xu Musen go back to continue cooking, still thinking that it would have been good to have planted a bug or something in the living room, so he could rush over if anything happened.

Meanwhile, in the living room.

Yao Mingyue and An Nuannuan sat facing each other.

An Nuannuan even poured her a cup of tea herself.

"Thank you."

Yao Mingyue took the teacup; she and An Nuannuan actually didn't have much to say to each other.

After all, they were still love rivals.

Yao Mingyue took a sip of tea.

"I heard from Musen that it was you who invited me to dinner?"

"Yep, Musen told me that you even brought us furniture."

"It's only natural, Musen and I grew up together. Our families have always bought things for each other; sometimes even our clothes were bought together. I'm used to it, no need for thanks."

Yao Mingyue smiled, "Actually, this isn't my first time coming over for a meal. I had one when I delivered the furniture."

Her words also carried an implication.

So, what was the message? Did she want to express that she was the first to have a meal here?

Although it was only a meal, girls can always conjure up many things when they get jealous.

But An Nuannuan just peeled an orange and handed half of it to Yao Mingyue.

"He's told me, which is only right. I even felt it was a pity not to have eaten with you. But from now on, it'll be different. Musen and I will be living here permanently. You can come over for a meal anytime you want."

An Nuannuan spoke in a soft, gentle voice that seemed extra sincere.

But the more sincere she sounded, the tighter Yao Mingyue clenched her teeth.

What was that supposed to mean?

Was she bragging that she would be the one eating with him every day?

Yao Mingyue's breath quickened slightly, but in the end, she smiled and reached out to take the offered orange.

Very sweet, but Yao Mingyue chewed it and tasted sourness.

"He really doesn't keep anything from you."

If she, the love rival, could have a meal alone with him in their new home, Yao Mingyue probably would have locked Xu Musen in a room and fed him six meals a day!

"Yep, he doesn't hide anything from me, and that's why I'll never get mad at him. My grandmother always said communication and understanding are key to everyday life."

An Nuannuan ate her orange, the corners of her mouth lifted in a blissful smile, super sweet.

Quite a way to speak of living life together.

Yao Mingyue felt as if she had been slapped in the face. Yes, communication and understanding, with mutual trust, what else could undermine a sense of security?

It's just that she understood all this too late.

Perhaps even if she understood, she wouldn't be able to do as well.

Yao Mingyue silently ate another segment of the orange.

"Actually, I wanted to talk to you about something."

To her surprise, An Nuannuan spoke softly.

Yao Mingyue looked up at her: "About what?"

What else could they talk about, being love rivals, other than Xu Musen?

An Nuannuan was peeling the white pith off the orange, her gaze devoid of its usual simplicity, instead appearing so clear that it seemed impossible to see the bottom.

"Last time, you mentioned something about you and Xu Musen in a past life. I want to ask… what happened to you two in the end?"

Yao Mingyue's pupils contracted slightly; she couldn't discern from An Nuannuan's expression what she wanted to know, it seemed like casual conversation.

But the ending of their past life…

Yao Mingyue narrowed her eyes, in her memories, Xu Musen never emerged from that operating room with the red light.

Beyond that, she seemed unable to recall anything.

It was as if her subconscious was deliberately avoiding something.

"You, know of it?"

She was silent for a moment, looking towards An Nuannuan, trying to read something from her expression.

But An Nuannuan's gaze remained as clear and bright as ever, showing no sign of any problem.

But if she knew something, that would mean she too was...
