After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady-Chapter 489 - 225: Can Only Offer Myself in Return.

Xu Musen decided to rest in the hotel for an additional day.

Having slept until noon, he was roused by a knocking at his door.

Upon opening it, he found a little girl standing there with a basket of fruit and fresh flowers in her hand. The moment she saw Xu Musen, she immediately shouted out.

"Big brother, big hero!"

The little girl seemed quite emotional, her cherubic face flushed red, and her eyes rimmed with redness too.

Xu Musen was momentarily taken aback, but upon closer inspection, he recognized her as the little girl from last night.

Behind her, a woman carrying gifts exhibited weary eyes, yet upon seeing Xu Musen, her face was filled with gratitude. She bowed deeply to him and tried to kneel with her daughter in tow.

"Thank you… thank you for saving my husband yesterday…"

The woman’s expression brimmed with gratitude, and just mentioning the previous day’s event made her emotionally charged and tearful.

She and her daughter attempted to kneel on the ground.

Xu Musen quickly helped them to their feet. "Doing a good deed is only right. I’m just glad you’re all okay."

"Thank you, if it weren’t for you, my daughter might not have a father anymore. We waited in the hospital all of yesterday for her father to wake up. It was only today that we had time to thank you..."

The woman, dabbing the tears at the corner of her eyes, presented gifts to Xu Musen. "We don’t know how to thank you enough... This is a small token of our appreciation, please accept it!"

Xu Musen glimpsed an envelope in the bag among the gifts, undoubtedly filled with cash.

Xu Musen looked at the mother and daughter, taking in their guilt and gratitude. He crouched down and extended his hand, accepting the flowers and fruit basket from the little girl.

"I’ll accept these, but I can’t accept these other gifts."

"How can that be acceptable? You saved our lives, and you were injured in the process. We don’t even know how to begin to repay you..."

The woman said guiltily, knowing that offering money wasn’t ideal, but as a single woman, she didn’t know any other way to express her gratitude for the life-saving favor.

"Your gratitude is received, and knowing that I helped save a good father, a good husband, and a family, also makes me very happy."

Xu Musen offered a smile.

If only someone had come to lend a hand immediately when that accident happened, perhaps everything would have been very different.

Maybe it’s just that having been through the rain himself, he always wanted to share his umbrella with others.

The woman choked up, too moved to speak.

Xu Musen chuckled and took the nutritional products she had set down, crouching in front of the little girl.

Her big eyes were a bit red from crying, and her fair little face had a somewhat haggard appearance.

Xu Musen impulsively pinched her cheek, placing the nutritional products back in her hands.

"But right now, it’s your father who needs the most care, and nourishment. These things should go to your father so he can recover faster."

"Big brother..."

The little girl, with her big eyes fixed on Xu Musen’s warm, sunny smile, couldn’t help but burst into tears.

Xu Musen helped her wipe away the tears. "There, there, big brother is very happy now. You should also go get some rest early."

Xu Musen stood up as the woman gently took her daughter by the hand.

She bowed deeply to Xu Musen once again.

"Big brother! I will, definitely repay you in the future!"

The little girl looked at Xu Musen, as if committing his features to memory, and spoke with earnest seriousness.

"Okay, then I’ll wait for you to repay me when you grow up," he said with a smile, waving his hand at the little girl.

The woman left with her daughter.

Xu Musen also closed the door.

He carried the basket of fruit and flowers to the bedside.

He found that Yao Mingyue, who had been asleep before, was now wide awake, watching him with big eyes.

"Awake?"

"I woke up to the sound of you talking to another woman."

Great, this woman gets jealous at the drop of a hat.

Xu Musen placed the flowers in front of her. "It was the wife and daughter of the man we saved yesterday, they came especially to thank us."

As he spoke, Xu Musen began to peel an apple from the fruit basket.

Yao Mingyue smelled the fragrance of the flowers, watching Xu Musen as he peeled the apple, and squinting her eyes, she asked, "The little girl just now said she wants to repay you when she grows up."

Xu Musen glanced at her. "So what?"

"Hehehe…"

Yao Mingyue let out a series of chuckles, teasingly saying, "I read a news story where a firefighter saved a little girl from a fire. The girl said she would repay him, and when she grew up, she married the firefighter and they had several children… hehehe."

Yao Mingyue had just woken up and her body hadn’t completely recovered yet, so she seemed a bit dazed.

Xu Musen looked at her speechlessly. Kid, you’re invincible. Jealous of other girls, your own mother, and now even this little girl.

"Who said repaying someone means you have to marry them?"

Yao Mingyue squinted her eyes, leaning in close to Xu Musen.

"Because ever since that day, six years ago, I’ve been thinking about marrying you to repay you, you know?"

As she spoke, she gently poked Xu Musen’s chest with one hand. "You just gave that little girl a chance to marry you in repayment, so won’t you give me one?"

Xu Musen cut a slice of apple, placing it directly in her mouth. "This is biting the hand that feeds."

"You don’t know what’s good for you!"

Xu Musen observed that, considering her voice was bright and lively, she mustn’t have any major issues, but her right hand hadn’t recovered yet.

In the winter, wounds heal slowly, especially since she injured her fingertips. She wouldn’t be able to hold chopsticks or bowls for a few days.

The restaurant delivered meals on time, and although it was just the two of them, they brought in at least a dozen dishes, almost like an imperial morning banquet, for fear of not having enough to eat.

Xu Musen fed her her meal.

Yao Mingyue lay contentedly on the bed as if she were an empress, only needing to open her mouth for Xu Musen to place the steaming food inside.

Fruit, tea, Yao Mingyue lay in bed feeling extremely comfortable, as if she had reached the pinnacle of life.

If Xu Musen was even a little slow in his attentiveness, she would utter pitifully, "Nevermind me then, it seems I have no one to dote on me," or "I bled because of you..."

In the evening, they were still in one room, but Xu Musen went straight to sleep on the couch.

"Come and sleep with me in the bed, this bed is pretty comfortable,"

Yao Mingyue said, donning her loose-fitting pajamas, watching as Xu Musen prepared to sleep on the couch.

"It’s not like we haven’t slept together before..."

Remembering last night’s incident, Yao Mingyue subconsciously covered her chest.

Xu Musen glanced at her, "Behave and sleep, we still have to hit the road tomorrow."

Their relationship had actually eased a lot, especially after the events of these past couple of days.

Between them, it seemed they couldn’t be described just as childhood sweethearts anymore...

Last night was a special circumstance, Xu Musen was a family man now.

Though he didn’t consider himself a saint, he wasn’t the type to fool around either.

Some unexpected situations should be avoided if possible.

"What if I want to drink water or something at night?"

"The house is only so big, a few seconds won’t leave you parched to death."

"What if I want to go to the bathroom?"

"Pee in the bed."

"Xu Musen!!"

After their playful bickering, they soon each started to sleep.

Dawn.

It was time to go home.

The man they had rescued was finally able to get out of bed and came over early to thank them again specifically.

The hotel staff refunded their money and also gave them some shopping and fuel cards as compensation.

Xu Musen did not refuse the hotel’s compensation, as it would be handy for buying New Year goods. Enjoy new tales from novelbuddy

After expressing their gratitude several times, Xu Musen was ready to leave.

But the little girl tugged at Xu Musen; she looked up at him, her big eyes sparkling like little stars.

Little girls, who always fantasize about princes on white horses, undoubtedly find the big brother who heroically saved her father even handsomer than a prince!

"Big brother..."

"What is it?"

Xu Musen kneeled down smiling at her.

"Um..."

The little girl glanced at Yao Mingyue behind Xu Musen, blushing slightly, "Is this beautiful big sister your girlfriend?"

Xu Musen and Yao Mingyue exchanged glances.

"No, she’s my sister,"

Xu Musen said, speaking up first.

Yao Mingyue’s expression instantly turned a bit sullen as she crossed her arms and puckered her lips, resembling the anime character who pouts while folding her arms.

"Sister, huh..."

The little girl’s big eyes rolled around; she rubbed her hands together: "Big brother, will you always be in Huhai?"

"Guess so, I’m still studying at Huhai University,"

"Huhai University... I want to go there too!"

The little girl said with anticipation.

"Sure, but by that time, this old senior would probably have already retired,"

Xu Musen said, laughing. But no sooner had he finished his sentence than he felt as if he’d been kicked.

Turning his head, Yao Mingyue was still standing with her arms crossed and lips pursed, looking away.

It was about time to leave.

Xu Musen patted her head, "Then, big brother will be going first."

After saying this, Xu Musen tried to stand up, but the little girl grabbed his arm again and suddenly pecked his cheek.

Yao Mingyue: "ʕ(ⓛ–ⓛ)ʔ?"

Xu Musen: "૮₍ˊᗜˋ₎ა"

Little girl: "⌯˃̶ᗜ˂̶⌯ಣ~~"

The little girl covered her face, shyly ran away.

Xu Musen silently stood up and exchanged glances with Yao Mingyue.

"Perverted lolicon!"

"..."

They got in the car and left this place, which had been full of twists and turns.

But all the way, Yao Mingyue kept staring at his cheek and occasionally made sarcastic remarks, "Wow, big brother, you are really handsome." "Big brother, wait for me to grow up, okay, I’ll carry on your family line..."

"Enough already."

Xu Musen was helpless, jealousy truly knew no end: "That little girl is at most a middle school student, do you have all this nonsense in your head?"

Yao Mingyue leaned in close to him, "But at her age, I was already wanting to marry you."

"You’re brave to admit that."

"What’s there to be embarrassed about? Liking someone isn’t a disgrace, and think carefully, everyone in the world might leave you, but I’m the only one who will never leave you..."

Yao Mingyue whispered in Xu Musen’s ear like a siren’s call.

Xu Musen glanced at her without a response.

But deep down he was also slightly moved.

Indeed, if he ended up with Yao Mingyue, in this life there would only be dying together, no chance of divorce...

In this fast-food world, he really didn’t know if that was good or bad...
