After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

"I've always felt that we were already very good friends," Xu Musen chuckled.

Zhu Yulan curled her lip, but couldn't quite hide a slight upward turn of her mouth, "Then remember what you've said, the day you scam me, I'll scam you back eventually."

As she spoke, she picked up the milk tea from the table and, while walking to the counter at the entrance, grabbed two freshly baked egg tarts, "Have your boss settle the bill."

After saying that, Zhu Yulan walked away proudly, as if she had gained a huge advantage.

The staff looked towards Xu Musen.

Xu Musen nodded with a smile. This young lady certainly had a childish way of gaining an advantage.

Xu Musen also stood up, took a few egg tarts himself, and drove away.

The two young staff members in the shop couldn't help but whisper to each other.

"Hey, I always feel that our boss has a special relationship with that girl."

"They are a pair of talented and attractive individuals, but she drives a Ferrari every day, it seems like she's even richer than our boss."

"That's exactly why she's richer than our boss, and yet she comes every day to 'gain an advantage.' Two egg tarts aren't even worth the gas money from one press of her car's accelerator. Girls are like that; they care enough about someone to try to gain an advantage over them..."

"Eh, you understand so much, how come we haven't seen you dating yet?"

"Go away. I'll also be a woman driving a Ferrari in the future, and then all I'll need is a handsome guy."

...

At this moment, Zhu Yulan was driving back to the Zhu Family's private estate in Huhai.

With the year's end, visitors to the Zhu family never stopped coming, day after day.

Zhu Yulan received a call from her sister, asking her to come home for a meal together.

Zhu Yulan always felt it wasn't going to be anything good, and sure enough, once she arrived in the living room,

Zhu Yulan saw the person she didn't want to see.

Huang Tianming was still dressed in his eye-catching, dapper way, wearing a white suit.

Besides being slightly short, Huang Tianming's other qualities were indeed beyond reproach.

Looks, family background, and personal capabilities, he was quite outstanding even among the children of the wealthy.

This idea of arranged marriages may sound somewhat unbelievable in modern times, but upon reflection, it's actually quite normal.

Even ordinary families would prioritize local spouses with stable assets like houses and cars. Strong alliances are always the best choice.

Moreover, for big corporations, if they intermarry, it sends a signal to the outside world that the cooperation between the two families will definitely be closer, and their capacity for bearing risks and making investments will assuredly be stronger.

Others will be more willing to invest in them, which is beneficial for the development of both families.

After all, the larger the family, the more interests are involved. Enjoying the life provided by a wealthy family always comes with its costs.

Even daughters of ancient emperors had their own political marriages; much more so for these big corporations.

"Yu Lan, long time no see," Huang Tianming greeted her gentlemanly.

But Zhu Yulan didn't spare him a second glance and instead sat down on the side.

"Yu Lan, can't you hear Tianming greeting you?" Zhu Changlin frowned and scolded his daughter softly.

"Uncle Zhu, it's fine, maybe it's just that Yu Lan and I haven't seen each other for a long time and she's a bit unaccustomed to it," Huang Tianming responded with a smile, appearing very cultured.

"Look at how composed Tianming is, and then look at you. At your age, you're still throwing tantrums every day," said Zhu Changlin.

Zhu Yulan scoffed, "Two years abroad and he thinks he's a treacle turtle..."

Her voice wasn't loud, inaudible to others, but everyone could sense she wasn't saying anything nice.

Zhu Changlin was about to get angry again, but Zhu Xianglan, with her ever-elegant smile, went over to diffuse the situation, "Let's have dinner first, it's New Year's. I'll brew some tea."

A table full of exquisite food, although not on New Year's Eve, was equivalent to one or two months' expenses for an ordinary family.

Most people might never have such a meal in their lifetimes.

However, Zhu Yulan didn't even give it a glance; she continued eating her milk tea and egg tarts.

"Eat your meal, why are you eating those things?" Zhu Changlin couldn't help but say.

Although the family wouldn't forbid eating such "junk food," it still wasn't very presentable to do so at the table, especially with guests around.

"They're tasty, I feel like eating them," Zhu Yulan replied nonchalantly, crunching on the egg tart without any concern for her image.

"It's okay, those who have never tried it will occasionally treat themselves. But these nutritious-lacking things are still bad for your health; you should eat proper meals in the future," Huang Tianming mediated, but his words seemed pointed.

What do you mean by nutritious-lacking things? And who are you, some little biscuit?

Zhu Yulan knew he was referring to Xu Musen and spoke as if she had sneaked a bite, his tone presumptuous. What right did he have to speak like that?

"The ingredients in the egg tarts are genuine, not like some things, shoddy inside," Zhu Yulan retorted sarcastically.

"Yu Lan!" Zhu Changlin called out sternly again.

"Alright, alright, let's talk slowly since it's the New Year, Xiao Yulan might have gotten a bit carsick. Come, have some fruit first," Zhu Xianglan maintained her graceful smile, sat next to her sister, and caringly brought over a plate of fruit.

In this family, Zhu Yulan probably only had a bit of affection for her elder sister, so she ate a piece of fruit and said nothing further.

Zhu Changlin shook his head and said to Huang Tianming, "Tianming, I apologize for this spectacle. This child has been spoiled since she was young."

"It's good; it means that Yu Lan has always maintained her innocence and that Uncle Zhu has protected her very well."
