After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

Actually, sometimes when you think about it, it's quite tough for a girl living alone in an empty villa.

It's normal to long for someone to rely on.

"Let's go."

Musen started walking toward his home.

"Are you taking me to meet your parents?"

Yao Mingyue teased from behind, with a smile.

Musen glanced at her, "Dream on. My mom is fonder of you than she is of me, I'm the outsider here."

Ming Yue couldn't help but giggle. Indeed, both families had watched them grow up.

It was like they were already one family.

Actually, without any surprises, they were going to be one family soon.

"Fine, then I'll take you to meet my parents. It doesn't matter who marries whom."

Yao Mingyue tossed her long hair back, her trench coat showcasing her dashing, future tycoon aura without a trace of concealment.

Musen ignored the latter part of her statement.

After all, even if he didn't let her in, his mom would grab his ear later and make him invite Yao Mingyue back.

Back at home.

Ming Yue deftly took out the key, familiar as if it was her own home, and opened the door directly.

"Auntie Jie, Uncle Xu, we're back!"

Yao Mingyue called out.

"Oh, you're back!"

Mrs. Xu immediately hurried out of the kitchen upon hearing them, excited to greet them.

"You two really, why didn't you tell us earlier so that old Xu could have picked you up?" Mrs. Xu completely ignored her own son and pulled Yao Mingyue in to talk.

"It's not far from home, so we just walked back. Mainly, we couldn't wait to eat the food you made, Auntie."

Yao Mingyue said with a sweet smile, which delighted Mrs. Xu enormously.

"Ming Yue knows how to speak so well now. Look how pretty she's getting, and how beautiful she looks in that outfit. Musen, look at you, dressed like a middle schooler."

Mrs. Xu finally remembered to pay some attention to her own son.

Musen just shrugged it off nonchalantly and went to drink tea with his dad.

Things at home had been looking up recently.

It must be said that money really does make a difference – as the home improved, his parents even seemed younger than they did a few years ago.

Ming Yue went into the kitchen to help Mrs. Xu.

Musen sat drinking tea with his dad.

"Dad, try this."

"Milk tea?"

Mr. Xu shook his head, as he had started cutting down on sugar at his age.

"This is your son's very own brand, aren't you going to try it?" Musen said cheerfully.

His dad took it and looked it over, then tasted a sip. When one gets older, the love for sweet things diminishes.

But he had to admit the milk tea was quite good.

"Not bad, we haven't had the chance to ask you how your business has been going. How is it?"

"It's okay, I guess. From now on, you don't have to worry about me selling houses or cars to get married," Musen replied with a smile.

"That doesn't mean you can be rash."

His father advised him, but his eyes were filled with pride. Then he glanced toward the kitchen and whispered, "How have you and Ming Yue been lately?"

Both Mr. and Mrs. Xu could sense that there was some issue between the two before the school term started.

But after college, over the past couple of months, their relationship seemed to grow closer and subtler.

"It's the same as before," Musen said calmly.

"Son, it's okay to lie to yourself, but don't lie to your father."

"Dad, that almost sounds like you're cursing at me," Musen remarked.

"You, don't get cocky just because you've started making some money. Your mom and I aren't rushing you into finding someone, but you're getting to the age where, after college, it's tougher to start a relationship. It's good for a guy to have some experience. It helps when taking care of someone after getting married," his father said gravely.

Musen took a sip of tea and looked at his father, "Dad, are you encouraging your son to become a player? Has mom heard this theory of yours?"

"... "

Mr. Xu was momentarily at a loss for words.

"Enough talk, let's eat!"

Mrs. Xu called out from the kitchen.

Musen got up to help but just as he opened the kitchen door, he saw Ming Yue bringing out a plate of sweet and sour ribs.

It was Musen's favorite dish, especially when his mom made it.

"Smells good, doesn't it?" Ming Yue said with a smile.

"Of course my mom's cooking is... mmph."

Musen's words were cut short as Ming Yue gently picked up a piece and stuffed it into his mouth.

It was slightly hot, and the sour-sweet taste made his taste buds come alive.

"Are you trying to scald me to death!" Musen moved it around in his mouth a few times before he started to chew slowly.

"Dead pigs aren't afraid of boiling water~"

Ming Yue giggled, walking past him with the dish.

That action...

Mr. Xu quietly took another sip of milk tea.

This young people's thing, it had to be said, was indeed a bit sweet.
