After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

"This phrase could be considered the most important verbal promise in the Sichuan-Shu area."

But in this era, even a marriage certificate can't necessarily bind a person, let alone a verbal promise?

Yet, looking at An Nuannuan's expression, Xu Musen also understood what she was thinking.

Promises, these things.

Are the most fragile, yet also the most reliable.

Xu Musen slowly lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "Ehr-huo."

An Nuannuan certainly knew that this phrase couldn't actually bind anything, but Xu Musen's willingness to say it to her settled her heart considerably.

"So, can you start now... slowly start to accept her?"

This was the first time Xu Musen acted like a jerk, and he still felt a bit awkward saying these words.

"I won't!"

An Nuannuan huffed, raising her head to look at Xu Musen, "I'll just refrain from getting angry at you, I won't bother about others…"

"Then why did you... customize a wheelchair for her and tidy up her room?"

"That's because of you…"

An Nuannuan pouted her moist lower lip, "Even if I hadn't actively cleaned the room, wouldn't you have brought her home to recover anyway?"

Xu Musen scratched his head; it really was true.

"Besides, no matter what, she saved us this time, she saved my boyfriend, so of course I should be nicer to her."

An Nuannuan murmured softly, then muttered to herself, "And besides, the sooner she heals, the sooner she won't cling to you as much..."

Xu Musen, listening, felt a surge of warmth but also found her jealousy endearingly cute.

"Nuannuan, thank you."

Xu Musen reached out to caress An Nuannuan's cheek.

At that moment, not knowing what to say, being honest was easy, but how to do right by them, how not to fail their affection, that was something to be approached slowly.

"I will handle these things gradually. There might be some things… that will trouble you, but I will definitely give you the best; just don't be disappointed in me."

Xu Musen made a promise, though it seemed a flawed one.

"I won't be disappointed in you… Just like before when my legs were crushed, and the doctor told me I might be paralyzed for the rest of my life, my biggest wish was that if I could be in a wheelchair for the rest of my life, it would still be better than being bedridden. "

An Nuannuan spoke slowly, her eyes intently on Xu Musen, "Just like at the beginning, I just wanted to watch you from afar, I didn't even hope to be with you, perhaps being just a friend would have been enough."

But then, my legs truly healed, and I was finally able to be with you. Actually, all this has already exceeded my expectations. I don't want to go back to before, so even though things aren't perfect now, I'm already very content, I don't want to quarrel with you, nor do I want to return to the past…"

For An Nuannuan,

It was like a person about to starve to death suddenly encountering a feast, but before she could taste each dish, someone snatched them away, leaving only a few buns behind.

She wouldn't throw away those buns; at least, she still had something to eat, unlike in her previous life, when she had nothing at all.

Besides, she might not lose so badly in this lifetime.

An Nuannuan raised her head, her eyes alight with a defiant determination as she tightly grasped his hand.

"But as for taking care of her, you are my boyfriend now, and I'm not about to just hand you over to her; if she has what it takes, let her come and fight for it, I won't make it easy for her!"

An Nuannuan's words, though not sharp in their retort, were forceful and resolute.

In this life, An Nuannuan was the rightful one; even if someone came to fight her for food, she would wait until she had had her fill!

Xu Musen paused, then smiled.

He had actually felt it long ago.

The past An Nuannuan seemed too naïve, naïve in a way that perfectly hit Xu Musen's soft spot.

Silly yet very endearing

Xu Musen, no matter how foolish, could now understand; Nuannuan was intentionally indulging him.

Just like Xu Musen used to indulge Yao Mingyue.

That naïve An Nuannuan was perfect, but perfection always felt a bit unreal.

But now, this An Nuannuan with her complicated personality, capable of jealousy, upset, and forcefully expressing her emotions.

Perhaps this is the real her.

This Nuannuan, more like a living person,

Is also the Nuannuan Xu Musen truly prefers.

Endearing Nuannuan...
