After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

The piano piece at this moment, felt like rebirth, and also like melancholic confusion.

After that day, Yao's father eventually left.

Liu Rushuang, to support the family, traveled all year round, and Yao Mingyue's daily life was almost entirely spent at Xu Musen's house.

The relationship between the two began to change little by little.

Back then, Xu Musen's kindness toward Yao Mingyue was still mostly born out of a childhood friendship, like a brother taking care of his sister.

After all, they were so familiar with each other after spending so much time together.

The flutter of the heart that comes with puberty was just a moment or two.

Xu Musen hadn't realized what he liked, and even then he got along quite well with a girl in his class.

And there was even a bit of a spark between them.

But as Xu Musen's family's financial situation changed drastically, the girl stopped talking to him because he had no money to buy her snacks.

She even spoke ill of him in front of the whole class.

It was Yao Mingyue who came to Xu Musen's rescue, she directly grabbed his hand.

In front of the whole class, she declared,

"Xu Musen is the most important person to me, whoever bullies him, I'll fight!"

At that time, Yao Mingyue was like a mad little lion, really capable of hitting someone, her family's changes made her internally fragile, but also gave her a thorny shell.

Xu Musen was her last support at that moment, she had already lost so much, he was her only one left.

From then on, Xu Musen started to harbor different feelings for his childhood friend.

Because by Yao Mingyue's side, others would look at her with envy, satisfying the vanity of a young boy.

And Yao Mingyue also became guarded, she realized that Xu Musen was at the age where he would be interested in girls.

Girls actually mature a year or two earlier than boys, and Xu Musen's appearance was quite handsome, he had always been popular with the girls.

After this incident, she suddenly felt a sense of crisis—if that girl hadn't rejected Xu Musen.

What if they actually got together?

Would she lose her last support too?

In Yao Mingyue's heart, the extreme insecurity began to spiral out of control.

She feared that one day Xu Musen would be taken by someone else, this anxiousness gradually turned into possessiveness.

And the two of them continued to interact with different thoughts, moving from junior high into high school together.

This was also an important turning point that would determine their lives.

Because it wasn't until high school that Xu Musen finally turned his liking from the childhood friend into a liking for a girl.

Yao Mingyue's singing continued.

"Standing in punishment in the hallway, slapping palms.

Yet we paid attention to the dragonfly by the window.

Wherever I go, you always follow closely..."

Her voice carried a hint of joyful reminiscence, because up until the day before Xu Musen suddenly changed his personality,

the two of them had actually been getting closer and closer.

Xu Musen, affected by the changes at home, inevitably felt some influence, and his grades also failed to stay up, blending in with everyone else.

As Yao Mingyue's family situation gradually improved, her grades were among the best.

Most importantly, she became more and more beautiful, shining brightly wherever she went, attracting envious and admiring glances.

The gap between the two seemed to grow larger and larger, and Xu Musen panicked first, especially when he saw some really good-looking boys start to pursue Yao Mingyue.

Taking advantage of his status as a childhood friend, he would always tag along wherever Yao Mingyue went.

Lunchtime meals, sports during gym class, even cleaning duties, he was always in the same group as Yao Mingyue, and he would even slyly stick their homework together when handing it in.

Sometimes during class, Xu Musen would stare at Yao Mingyue's back and daydream, get caught by the teacher for not paying attention and get punished by standing in the hallway, getting slapped on the palm for not knowing the material.

But he always smiled and didn't seem to mind the pain at all; Yao Mingyue sitting in the classroom would also turn her head to watch Xu Musen get his palms slapped.

She would just feel that the moment was so beautiful...

Xu Musen eventually couldn't hold back and slowly started to show his affection to Yao Mingyue. It was in the second year of high school, during the class division, that Xu Musen handed over his first love letter.

Yao Mingyue had not ruled out the possibility of being with him, but high school romances were often more impulsive.

Breaking up and getting back together happened too quickly.

A few months were considered a long time for the dating classmates around her.

And once these people broke up, they couldn't even remain friends, and they would deliberately avoid each other upon meeting.

Laughable, isn't it? It takes a long time for two people to get together, but only a moment to break up.

Most people might consider this normal, but for Yao Mingyue, who had already lost everything once,

she couldn't bear another loss; she couldn't afford the consequences of a breakup.

Unless... the two could ensure they really would not part for a lifetime.

Yao Mingyue didn't reject him; she simply stayed silent without response, but Xu Musen pursued her more fervently.

Xu Musen wanted to tell everyone, to discourage the others.

But to her, this was just what she desired; Xu Musen, striving so hard to be with her,

gave Yao Mingyue a great sense of security, making her feel as if she had found a way to be with him forever.
