After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady-Chapter 872 - 362: The Childhood Sweetheart is the Other’s Lifesaving Remedy. _2

"Mom said 'marry a chicken follow the chicken, marry a dog follow the dog,' I am just following you."

"???"

Xu Musen was thoroughly teased by the adorable Nuannuan. He laughed as he hugged An Nuannuan and playfully tugged her plump cheeks from side to side.

From lifelong friends to this step, they had walked together for two years and also looked forward together for two lifetimes.

The current An Nuannuan had become livelier, but a certain girl who used to wish to appear in front of him every day, these days, seemed to show up less and less.

Xu Musen sent Nuannuan back to the school to study painting with Professor Liang.

Then Xu Musen thought of Yao Mingyue. The little Sickly Cutie, ever since the deep autumn and winter began, seemed to have entered a hibernation state.

These days, she was seldom seen.

This was very abnormal.

Xu Musen took out his phone and called her. Usually, the moment Xu Musen called her, Yao Mingyue would answer instantly.

But this time, the phone rang several times on the brink of hanging up automatically before she finally picked up on the other end.

And on the other end of the phone was Liu Rushuang's voice.

"Xiao Sen, Mingyue is taking a nap right now, are you looking for her?"

"It's nothing, I was just asking if she had eaten lunch properly."

"Lunch is about to be ready soon, she'll eat when she wakes up. Don't worry, Xiao Sen."

Liu Rushuang's words were always reassuring.

"Okay, I understand."

Xu Musen hung up the phone.

He turned around and headed straight for home.

At this moment, in the office building of Yao Group, in Liu Rushuang's office.

Liu Rushuang looked at the name on her phone screen.

"Ex-Brother-in-law"

This...Liu Rushuang could hardly help but laugh out loud. What a mess of a contact name.

But in a blink, the New Year was nearly upon them, and Ming Yue would soon be nineteen, and in another year, twenty.

Actually, according to Liu Rushuang's plan, once Ming Yue and Musen finish their junior year and are practically graduates in their senior year, it would be a good time to start preparing for their marriage.

To go from childhood sweethearts to the marital threshold, what a blissful thing that was.

But now...

She sighed; she didn't blame Xu Musen, after all, she understood her daughter's temper.

Xu Musen was like a son in her heart, and she was also happy he found such a lovely girl.

But apart from happiness, there was more regret.

She went back and opened the door to the office's room. There was another compartment inside, specially provided for rest, with the curtains drawn, the light slightly dim.

Yao Mingyue was lying on the bed asleep.

Since winter's arrival, she had been dozing off more and more, but her sleep was restless.

Liu Rushuang went to her daughter's side, placed the phone by her pillow, and touched her daughter's cheek, which was quite pale, lacking some color.

The room's heater was on, but her hands and feet were still a bit chilly. She really wanted to discuss with Xu Musen how little energy Yao Mingyue had been lately.

But Yao Mingyue had always forbidden her from speaking, saying Xu Musen was very busy lately and not to disturb him.

Moreover, even if he knew about it, it would only cause him unnecessary worry…

Her daughter had grown up; the changes in Yao Mingyue were not only seen by Xu Musen, but Liu Rushuang, as a mother, felt them even more clearly.

She knew well, a girl who was once so willful and so lacking in security, suddenly becoming so considerate of others, and seemingly strong enough to stand alone... wasn't necessarily a good thing.

It might even be preparation for a sudden departure one day...

"Musen..."

In her sleep, Yao Mingyue mumbled something, clutching the quilt.

She looked at her daughter with heartache, knowing she wanted to choose a daring path, but she could not make decisions for her.

All she could do was silently support all her ideas and help her resolve all other concerns.

Liu Rushuang watched her daughter for a long, long time, until she heard a knock on the door from outside the office.

She slowly stood up, closed the door, then went into the office and said, "Come in."

She thought it might be the secretary reporting on work.

But the door opened, and the person who came in surprised Liu Rushuang. "Xiao Sen... what brings you here?"

Xu Musen, carrying a thermal lunchbox, walked in with a smile, "Mom, didn't you and Ming Yue have lunch yet? I made something for you both; you should eat too."
