After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady-Chapter 565 - 254: The Birth of a Scum Man?_3
Xu Musen, on the contrary, thought for a moment, "Why didn’t you tell me sooner?"
"Since you got the gift, it’s all the same whether I tell you or not," said Yao Mingyue with an indifferent air.
Xu Musen, however, could guess some of the reasons.
At that time, when their family encountered a calamity, Xu Musen’s fall from grace was also tremendous, and as an older brother, he had a strong sense of self-esteem.
He could buy Barbie dolls for Yao Mingyue, but he couldn’t accept Yao Mingyue buying a remote control car for him, as he would feel as if he had fallen so low as to need his little sister to take care of him.
So, Yao Mingyue didn’t tell him and let Mother Xu give it to him as a birthday gift, satisfying his birthday wish without making Xu Musen feel awkward.
Yes, that’s how Yao Mingyue was, although her personality has been perverse since she was young and became gradually twisted as she grew up, she always gave her best to Xu Musen.
At this thought, Xu Musen let out a soft sigh, his eyes softened further: "Even though it’s been a long time, I still want to thank you."
Yao Mingyue’s eyes twinkled as she looked at the little car in Xu Musen’s hand, and then at the Barbie doll on her bedside: "This counts as an exchange of gifts, no thanks necessary."
"This remote control car is much more expensive than the Barbie doll, so it seems like I’ve gotten the better deal."
Xu Musen smiled and remembered how Yao Mingyue would pass by the Barbie store only to look longingly and leave, even though she had already saved enough money, choosing instead to keep saving it to buy him the remote control car, warming his heart.
For them, then only teenagers, giving up what they liked most to care for each other’s feelings was already a quite difficult thing.
Memories were also stirred in Yao Mingyue as she laughed with rosy cheeks: "Anyway, I took advantage of you today, so we’re even."
"Is it possible to destroy such a touching moment?" Xu Musen shook his head, helpless.
Yao Mingyue shook her head as if she had thought of another mischievous idea: "Alright then, since you are so moved, how about this, give you a chance to treat me to a meal, just make up the difference, is that okay?"
Xu Musen looked at her with a skeptical look and even took a step back: "A proper meal?"
"An improper one works too, I already know your limits anyway."
Yao Mingyue gave off a ruffian-like vibe, but her blushing, stunning cheeks created a strong contrast.
Xu Musen shook his head, looked at the remote control car in his hand, and then looked up at Yao Mingyue.
His heart at this moment felt like an egg that had cracked open.
He always felt that something was about to break out of its shell and move.

Xu Musen decided to make things clearer.
"Yao Mingyue, I hope our relationship can get better, but not in this way, it’s not fair to you either," he said.
While speaking, Yao Mingyue interrupted him with a laugh: "I know, I, Yao Mingyue, may be unscrupulous in my actions, but I will definitely not use any lowly tricks. I’ve talked with her, and if one day I really decide on something, I will make it clear to her."
"You guys?"
Xu Musen looked at her, her and An Nuannuan, two people with completely different personalities, what could they talk about?
"Anyway, don’t pry into women’s affairs; at least for now, I won’t really eat you up, you can be assured of that."
Yao Mingyue took the initiative, her gaze following Xu Musen’s body.
Xu Musen shook his head, feeling a bit helpless.
He didn’t think of himself as a good person, the idea of two-timing had also crossed Xu Musen’s mind.
His own rebirth gave him more opportunities.
Yao Mingyue, he now knew he could not completely sever ties with her, and on Nuannuan’s side, Xu Musen was also not going to let go.
So the only option seemingly left for him seemed to be a darker path.
He thought for a moment, his heart seemingly starting to consider some decision, then said: "I also don’t like feeling controlled all the time, I will handle some things properly, let’s both calm down before that."
He was silent for a while.
"It’s getting late, rest early, good night."
Having finished speaking, Xu Musen turned and left.
Yao Mingyue watched his retreating figure leave, walked to the bedside, and watched as Xu Musen slowly turned the corner and headed home.
He would solve it, but how... Experience more tales on novelbuddy
If this phrase sounded unfaithful, Yao Mingyue would have definitely tied him up and put him in the basement to cool off for a few days.
But now, at least… he now had started to consider his own affairs as part of his future life.
A person who has truly lost everything may indeed do things they previously could not comprehend, like a person drowning who will cling desperately to a straw.
Otherwise, she’s left with nothing.
Yao Mingyue turned back, looking at the desk pressed under her, those were letters, meant for him, the confessions of the past.
