After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

```

On the third day in Huhai.

Another guest arrived at An Nuannuan's home in the evening.

Professor Liang.

Her hair was graying, and her figure slightly stooped, but her demeanor remained untouched by the passing years, an elderly lady with unwavering charm.

For this old professor, Xu Musen had always been grateful. If it hadn't been for her, he would've faced many more troubles with the incident at the milk tea shop last time.

Moreover, during the New Year, a time meant for family reunions, Professor Liang had always been alone. Though students and old friends frequently visited her, she inevitably seemed a bit lonely.

"Young man, we meet again."

Having arrived at An Nuannuan's house, Professor Liang didn't stand on ceremony; she was used to such visits and greeted Xu Musen with a kind smile upon seeing him.

It was the look of an elder watching over a younger generation.

"Hello, Grandma Liang, today I'm taking over the kitchen. You'll get to taste my cooking later."

Xu Musen said with a respectful smile.

"You can cook?" Grandma Liang said in surprise.

Grandma Nuan Nuan replied with a smile, "This child is indeed skilled in cooking. You'll definitely like the taste. Come, let me make you a cup of tea."

Grandma Nuan Nuan's tone was like that of someone proudly showing off their family's younger generations.

Professor Liang also smiled. The two elderly ladies were truly old friends of several decades, supporting each other as they went to drink tea and chat about daily life.

Xu Musen and An Nuannuan got busy in the kitchen, and through the window, they could see the yard,

The only person in the family who seemed a bit uneasy was the old master.

At that moment, the old master was practicing martial arts in the yard with his granddaughter, but it was apparent that his heart wasn't in it.

Allowing An Nan to hit him several times with a little wooden stick.

"Grandpa, you can't beat me anymore. I'm going to be the greatest hero in our family!"

An Nan laughed triumphantly.

"You're still green, my girl. Come on, oh... you little rascal, Grandpa hasn't said to start yet."

Perhaps people really do become more childlike as they age. The old master was having a great time playing with his granddaughter.

Even if occasionally, he got beaten as if he was the grandson.

Xu Musen couldn't help but smile, feeling a strange sensation in his heart.

If in the future, when he and Nuannuan grew old, and Yao Mingyue came to visit, would he be like this...

An Nuannuan had washed a carrot and was waving it in front of his eyes.

Xu Musen took the carrot and skillfully shredded it.

He didn't want to ask, but Yao Mingyue's changes and the feelings she had given him recently had been too intense.

If in the future, he and An Nuannuan got married and together, it would be very difficult for Yao Mingyue to truly let go and accept him being with someone else.

Would that mean leaving her to... live out the rest of her life alone?

"Nuannuan, I want to ask you a question, just hypothetically, don't get mad."

Xu Musen prepared himself first.

The kitchen was full of knives and forks, and without a bit of armor, one might take real damage.

An Nuannuan blinked, nodded obediently.

"It's, if in the future, Yao Mingyue never marries and becomes like Grandma Liang, visiting our home from time to time, what would you think?"

Xu Musen waited for her reaction after asking the question.

She was her usual dazed self, seeming not surprised at all. Her beautiful eyebrows moved slightly, and her eyes lit up momentarily.

"Are you saying that, in the future, you'll marry me?"

"Of course... but that's not the point of the question, is it?"

An Nuannuan suddenly seized upon the strange point.

Especially after receiving Xu Musen's answer, her lovely face obviously flushed with pleasure.

"Xu Musen, I like you, and I also believe that you will always like me. That's all I need to know."

An Nuannuan's words always sounded so naive to others, yet also so sincere.

"But won't you be upset?"

Xu Musen asked, knowing that girls are bound to get jealous about such topics; the more you care about someone, the more jealousy there will be.

"Of course, I won't be happy, but I also feel sorry for her. I know what she's feeling..."

An Nuannuan remembered her own past: "Mom said that everyone has someone in their heart to hold them up. But after mom passed, that place in my heart was empty, waiting until you came along.

Even if I couldn't be with you, just seeing you made me feel at ease."

It was like before when An Nuannuan thought she might only ever be able to secretly watch him from his side, but that was enough for her.

People need a hope that's intangible yet visible.

Xu Musen understood this mentality; he and Yao Mingyue had once mutually relied on each other for support.

But love is such a thing, it may sound grand, but in reality, it's only spacious enough for two people to share.

An Nuannuan looked at him, gently held one of his fingers: "Mom told me that we can be a bit selfish and hold onto the person we love tightly in our arms, but we shouldn't be upset because the shadow of the person we love blocks a little sunlight for someone else. If we love, we hold tighter; anger only creates distance.

After finally being able to hold each other, I never want to be upset with you..."

An Nuannuan's voice was soft, and she leaned against Xu Musen.

Xu Musen opened his arms and embraced her.

Perhaps An Nuannuan had already given her answer.

Xu Musen had his answer too.

Just like the warm sun and the bright moon in the sky.

Though the moon may wax and wane, at least Xu Musen would never let go of this warm sun, not ever.

...

Having been in Huhai for two or three days, Xu Musen was preparing to go back.
