After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

(The latter half of the previous chapter has been rewritten, everyone should refresh and take a look at the previous chapter before reading this one, more content without an increase in price!) "From today on, I'll be living with you!" That sentence from Zhu Yulan almost burned out Xu Musen's CPU. It's just that earlier this morning, his home was subjected to a morning surprise attack by a certain Xiao Sickly Cutie. He had just finished breakfast, so why was there now another person wanting to cohabit with him? After his rebirth, Xu Musen felt his health had improved compared to before, but at this rate, he feared for his kidneys. "You, you're misunderstanding..." Zhu Yulan had been so angry with Xu Musen that she wasn't thinking straight, but now returning to her senses and seeing Xu Musen's peculiar expression, she realized the misunderstanding her words could have caused and her slim, pretty face turned as red as a pitahaya. She covered her chest, and even though Zhu Yulan wasn't particularly impressive in that area, one could still see her upset breathing. "I haven't misunderstood, take your time and explain." Xu Musen poured her a cup of tea, fearing she might faint from anger. Zhu Yulan also gradually calmed down, took the tea Xu Musen had poured, and after a few seconds, she started to speak, "I... I have nowhere to live now." "Huh?" Xu Musen was surprised, "A rich heiress like you running out of places to stay?" It seemed the term 'rich heiress' made Zhu Yulan react somewhat defensively, she held the cup of tea and finally let out a self-mocking sneer, "I am no longer a heiress, at most a Cinderella kicked out of her home." Zhu Yulan fell silent for a moment, and put aside her pride. "I have completely fallen out with my family. I lost all my companies, properties, bank cards, and even my car has been taken away... Now, I barely have enough for tomorrow's meal." As Zhu Yulan spoke, her face showed a smile filled with disillusionment and bitterness. Xu Musen slowly began to speak, "So, you're running away from home?" Most people have thought of running away from home when they were young, dreaming of hiding in a place no one knows about, vowing not to return even if they starve, but usually they couldn't last half a day before they went back home, hungry and defeated. "Ordinary people who run away from home still get called back by their parents to come home for dinner, but all they want now is for me to accept reality, obediently return, and be a good vase, marrying someone who can bring them benefits. That's my family..." Zhu Yulan said this, her frail body trembling slightly, and her almond-shaped eyes couldn't help but well up with tears. If only mother were still here, if only older sister were still here, they would never have let her end up like this... The last time, Xu Musen had already learned about the things Zhu Yulan was facing. All you could say was that everyone surely has their own troubles and things beyond their control. "So you want me to help you find a place to stay, right?" Xu Musen's tone softened. Even though reality isn't like what's depicted in anime, where rich heiresses have absolutely no common sense, it's like most city folks who definitely wouldn't know a farmer's knowledge. Having Zhu Yulan, a rich heiress, live like an ordinary person, especially someone penniless, would likely be very difficult. Zhu Yulan nodded her head, biting her lip, "My company at school has also closed down. I tried renting a place on my own, but the agent was a scammer, and my remaining rent money... was swindled by him..." Zhu Yulan spoke more and more grievously, probably never having been in such a sorry state in her whole life. Xu Musen shook his head, as the first hurdle for college graduates usually isn't their job, but various unscrupulous agents that target them. "What about that little assistant of yours?" Xu Musen suddenly remembered the young employee named Yang Xiaotao. "I didn't let her know. I just said I was on a business trip..." Zhu Yulan bit her lip. Xu Musen understood; it was all about keeping up appearances, and naturally, she didn't want her subordinates to pity her. Xu Musen thought for a moment. "Here's what we'll do, I'll help you rent a place later where you can stay for the time being." Xu Musen thought about renting a place for her in his own complex, it was better with acquaintances around. "I don't want to live outside..." "Why not?" "Because it costs money, I don't want to owe you any more money. I just need a free room, anywhere will do..." Zhu Yulan still couldn't let go of her pride. But Xu Musen placed his hands protectively over his chest, "Classmate Zhu, I consider you a friend, but you can't have any ill intentions. I already have a lady of the house, so it really isn't convenient to live with you." "You!" Zhu Yulan's face reddened with anger, "I was talking about the small room in your milk tea shop!" This guy really... Even though she knew Xu Musen was teasing her to make her feel less sad. But this tone was really annoying, making her feel as if she was desperate for him... Xu Musen then looked back at the small room behind the milk tea shop, which he hadn't used much since he didn't move, leaving it vacant. But such a living environment was still somewhat too humble for this heiress. "Can you really put up with this kind of environment?" Xu Musen was a bit dubious. "Don't look down on people. At least... it's better than sleeping on the streets." Zhu Yulan was truly ready to stake it all out, "I'm just temporarily staying for a few days, until I save enough for rent, then I'll move out..."
