After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

"Mmm."

"Really? But that's your boss, isn't this like betraying him?"

Yao Mingyue spoke with a smile.

"I swear, if I tell him, may I never make a fortune in this life."

Zhao Lianmai spoke earnestly, as money was the most important thing for someone who had experienced poverty and hunger.

"Then it's a deal, you must keep this a secret forever..."

Yao Mingyue said with a smile, tightly holding her hand, and Zhao Lianmai also held her hand tightly.

"Forever a secret."

The sunlight was just right, the promise between the girls sailed across the oceans.

At this moment in Huhai, Xu Musen listened as Zhao Lianmai finished her last sentence.

"She's leaving the hospital and going abroad for surgery tomorrow, you should come tonight to stop her."

Zhao Lianmai recounted the conversation between her and Yao Mingyue to Xu Musen without missing a word.

Xu Musen remained silent for a long time.

Zhao Lianmai knew that although her boss was somewhat flawed, his love for his childhood sweetheart, Yao Mingyue, ran deep to the bone.

He would never just watch as Yao Mingyue went abroad alone for the surgery.

But after a long wait, Xu Musen still remained silent.

"You better prepare to come over now, Nuannuan will understand, after all, Yao Mingyue might just..."

She still couldn't bring herself to say the words 'for the last time'.

"Thank you, I understand."

Xu Musen finally spoke, his tone unusually calm, as if he had anticipated this.

Zhao Lianmai didn't know what to say for a moment and just responded with a "Mhm."

Yet Xu Musen spoke again.

"Didn't you promise her to keep it a secret forever? Telling me like this, aren't you afraid you'll never make a fortune?"

Zhao Lianmai was stunned for a moment, not expecting Xu Musen to suddenly say that, but she calmed down and responded: "Anyway, my fortune god is you, whether I can make a fortune is up to you."

There was a moment of silence on Xu Musen's end before he laughed: "It's rare to hear you compliment me. Don't worry, I won't treat you badly in the future."

Zhao Lianmai did not continue the conversation, she paused briefly before speaking: "In any case, Nuannuan is a very, very good girl, you have to treat her even better in the future… otherwise, I'll have to fire you as the boss!"

With that, she hung up the phone.

Huhai.

Xu Musen looked at the disconnected call, somewhat at a loss for words, but eventually he shook his head, his expression somewhat distracted.

It seems... Yao Mingyue has come to face this day again.

Lately, Xu Musen had noticed something was off with Yao Mingyue; her way and tone of replying to messages were fine.

But the only thing... she stopped being jealous.

Every word and sentence, were like out-of-date vinegar, lacking the unreasonableness of a young girl.

Gone was her lively temper that was always ready to flare up.

Xu Musen guessed that the person replying to the messages might not be her.

Xu Musen silently sighed…

He could understand why Yao Mingyue left without a goodbye, because the choice she had to make... no one could help her with, it would only add to others' troubles.

But how could Xu Musen be just someone else, he is her not-yet-divorced husband…

Xu Musen knew that right now, if he immediately left the engagement party with Nuannuan and flew back to Zheng City, he might be able to stop her before she boarded the plane.

But that would definitely upset Nuannuan's family and be too unfair to Nuannuan.

Although it was a parting of life and death, even if Xu Musen really went, Nuannuan's family could understand, but Yao Mingyue's meticulous plans were exactly not to be this "bad person" anymore, right?

If because of her situation, problems arose on his side, Yao Mingyue would probably never be at peace in her life.

Xu Musen understood her; what she wanted was to leave quietly, silently wishing well...

Perhaps what Xu Musen should do right now is quietly accept her intentions, pretend to be unaware, that way he could do right by Nuannuan and let Yao Mingyue have peace of mind…

Quietly, without disturbing anyone.

Xu Musen held his phone, staring at the chat box with Yao Mingyue.

A flicker in his eyes, yet he raised his hand and typed.

"I'm getting engaged with Nuannuan, the engagement party is tomorrow."

The message came back a minute later.

Yao Mingyue: "Oh, whatever you want."

Seeing this message, Xu Musen smiled knowingly; this flavor was finally back.

He continued typing.

"Remember, we rushed into our marriage; you always wanted to prepare one part but never got to do it, and you kept talking about it later, right?"

On the phone side, Yao Mingyue looked at her phone, she was somewhat disoriented, also recalling how after her previous comeback, she had hurriedly married Xu Musen.

Fearing that he might run away again, so many elements of their wedding were not fulfilled, like spreading 9,999 roses for her to walk through slowly.

Like she wanted Xu Musen to put a ring on her finger on the highest Ferris wheel.

Like she wanted to wear school uniforms with Xu Musen, letting him propose to her once again with a megaphone…

She was bewildered, she had been afraid Xu Musen would regret it back then, and they married in haste, none of these came to fruition.

But now… how could there still be time.

She raised her finger, "So what about it."

Xu Musen: "I also feel it's quite regretful, so, I decided..."

Xu Musen deliberately stopped without finishing.

Yao Mingyue became incredibly anxious, what does he mean, is he planning to make it up to her?

But there's no such chance now…

In her loss, Yao Mingyue with a bit of bitter urgency: "So what are you trying to say?"

"So! I decided!!"

Xu Musen with several big exclamation marks: "All these unfulfilled parts, we are going to do them all with Nuannuan!"

Yao Mingyue: ...

Thud!

The phone, yet again, dead!!!

Having received no reply for a long while, Xu Musen laughed to himself.

It seems, the plan was still a success.
