After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady-Chapter 895 - 369: The Xiao Sickly Cutie Who Doesn’t Want to Get Jealous, The First Snow in Huhai._3

Zhu Yulan was thin, but she had beautiful features, and her almond-shaped eyes possessed the gentle charm of a southern girl, along with the temperament of a young lady.

Her hair was pinned up in an ancient style, which suited her well.

"I've just realized, this hairstyle really suits you."

Xu Musen praised with a smile.

Zhu Yulan saw her pinned-up hairstyle through the computer screen and was slightly lost in thought.

"The only ones who have ever done my hair are Mom and my big sister... They're both gone now, you're the third."

Zhu Yulan's gaze drifted towards Xu Musen.

Xu Musen felt a shiver run down his spine; why did that sound so ominous?

Zhu Yulan chuckled suddenly, and with that laugh, her peachy cheeks and almond eyes shone exceptionally bright.

"Since you like doing hair, from now on, you'll be in charge of it."

A girl's hair is symbolic of something that goes without saying.

"Any objections?" Zhu Yulan asked, raising her chin inquiringly when he remained silent.

Xu Musen shook his head with a smile, "No, I was thinking, I might need to learn a few more hairstyling techniques."

"Jerk!"

"???"

...

In the afternoon, Xu Musen went to another office building.

Yao Group.

This 'Xiao Sickly Cutie' had been strangely quiet recently.

But every winter, Yao Mingyue is always quiet. She's been afraid of the cold since she was little, with her hands and feet freezing during winter, hardly ever willing to leave her bed.

Xu Musen remembered during college, Yao Mingyue was always low-spirited every winter, until in her third year when she suddenly disappeared without a word.

Xu Musen was silent for a moment before he made his way to the innermost office.

He knocked on the door.

Liu Rushuang opened the door, and upon seeing Xu Musen, a flicker of emotion brightened in her eyes.

"Ming Yue is in her room. She's been feeling a bit unwell these past few days, not eating much. Go to cheer her up."

"Okay."

Xu Musen nodded, "Did you have lunch, Mother?"

"Now that you're here, I can go have my lunch without worry. Remember not to let her catch a cold and especially not to let her run around outside since it's snowing."

Liu Rushuang patted his head with a smile and turned to leave the office.

Xu Musen entered the resting room in the office.

The room was still lit with the same dim light, and Yao Mingyue seemed to be taking a nap on the bed.

There was also half a bowl of seafood porridge by the bed, which wasn't much to begin with, and less than half had been eaten.

Xu Musen approached the bed; Yao Mingyue still had her eye mask on.

Yet he could still see her cheeks were unnaturally pale, a sign of chilliness and lack of vitality in her blood.

Xu Musen's gaze lingered over the left side of her chest.

Lean in a bit, the light scent of roses.

Xu Musen reached out to help her straighten the crooked blanket, but the next moment, the girl seized his arm outright.

"Awake?"

Xu Musen asked softly.

Yao Mingyue, with her eye mask still on, rubbed his arm and said, "I smelt the scum on someone as soon as they walked in."

Xu Musen had to suppress a laugh for a moment. Why did that sound so familiar?

"Rubbing against a scum guy?"

Yao Mingyue stopped rubbing his arm. Her little nose sniffed around like a small otter.

"You have another woman's perfume on your hand!"

Yao Mingyue, suddenly invigorated, removed her eye mask from one side. One of her phoenix eyes still looked a bit feeble, but the gaze she fixed on him was sharp.

Xu Musen coughed, "Is it your nose causing the trouble?"

"Who's spitting song lyrics with you!"

Yao Mingyue glared at him. "Who is it? Zhu Yulan? Zhao Lianmai? Or is it Nannan?"

...

Xu Musen was amused by her jealous urgency.

"Eat properly and I'll tell you."

"No, I won't eat unless you tell me!"

Ignoring her, Xu Musen stood up and checked the fridge, which was quite stocked, "I'll make you a bowl of noodles."

Taking out some eggs and tomatoes, he went into the small kitchen to get busy.

The tomato and egg noodles were quick to make, just needed to boil the water for a bit, and Xu Musen even added a bit of lard to make the broth richer and more fragrant.

He brought the steaming bowl of tomato and egg noodles back to the bedside where Yao Mingyue now sat cross-armed, pouting by the headboard.

Yet the smell of the noodles Musen held made her involuntarily swallow.

"Go ahead, eat. The noodles I make aren't something just anyone gets to taste."

Xu Musen picked up the noodles and blew on them before placing them near her mouth.

Yao Mingyue wrinkled her nose, scoffing, "Psh! It's just a bowl of tomato and egg noodles..."

"But it's this bowl of tomato and egg noodles... Didn't we also eat them happily when we were kids?"

Xu Musen spoke with a smile, remembering the hardest times after his family's crisis when there was not even a hint of meat in the house.

Getting to have a few eggs was already considered nourishment.

Especially during winter, when Liu Rushuang was busy outside, they had to make every penny stretch.

Sometimes, when money couldn't be sent back in time, Xu Musen's family struggled even more.

But whenever Yao Mingyue came over for a meal, they always saved the eggs for her.

She got the eggs in her bowl of tomato and egg noodles, while Xu Musen just had some noodles and soup.

Despite that, both the little ones were still content and happy.

Of course, Yao Mingyue had not forgotten how this guy used to deceive her by saying he was allergic to hen's eggs and could only eat rooster's eggs, but roosters don't lay eggs...

In truth, it was just so she could get more nutrition. Even though the winters were tough, they got through it.

Looking at the bowl of tomato and egg noodles and at Xu Musen's smiling face, for the first time, Yao Mingyue took the initiative not wanting to be jealous of Xu Musen.

What good would jealousy do...

Better to cherish the present.

"Xu Musen."

"Hmm?"

"I'll eat obediently now, but can you take me out for a walk later... Mom hasn't let me go outside for several days, and I heard it's snowing outside. I want to see Huhai's first snow together..."

Yao Mingyue looked at Xu Musen as though she were the little girl from so many years ago who, despite having a runny nose from the cold, would still insist on dragging him to build a snowman.

The words insisting on her resting properly got stuck in Xu Musen's mouth, and at the end, he picked up a piece of egg and fed it to her lips.

"Okay."

"Yeah!"
