After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady-Chapter 537 - 244: Nuannuan Wants to be a Naughty Child~

Huhai.

The New Year’s Eve dinner lasted a long time.

Both the old man and An Shanhai now treated Xu Musen as a future son-in-law.

The alcohol flowed glass by glass, as both the elder and An Shanhai were seasoned drinkers.

But Xu Musen was on another level, hardly showing signs of drunkenness even after more than a jin had gone down his gullet.

When a man had one too many drinks, no matter how formidable the people he faced, boasting and reminiscing were inevitable.

As the old man spoke, the conversation inevitably turned to An Shanhai, and he unconsciously chided him for not coming home these past few years.

Now a business mogul in his own right, An Shanhai had no choice but to bow his head and admit his wrongs to his father.

As the elder’s words grew more impassioned, he almost wanted to drag An Shanhai outside for some exercise, nearly staging an elderly version of "seven wolves."

In the end, a glance from grandma extinguished his fervor in an instant. Explore new worlds at novelbuddy

However, back and forth these exchanges went, and the atmosphere around the table became increasingly harmonious. Any previous divisions were slowly melting away.

Dinner ended.

The family seemed to have an unspoken agreement, giving Xu Musen and Nuannuan some space to themselves.

After all, it was only natural to allow young people some time to be affectionate, lest they be more prone to accidents.

Xu Musen helped An Nuannuan upstairs, and though she could manage the stairs herself, she acted as if she couldn’t walk as soon as Xu Musen was around.

She clung to him entirely.

Upon reaching the room.

An Nuannuan’s room was still covered in shades of pink, the air rich with the scent of milk and fruit, surrounded by many rabbit dolls.

I remember the first time I came here, it felt somewhat empty, but now there were even more dolls.

The little lady herself had changed too. In contrast to her former dazed self, she now spoke and laughed more.

Xu Musen gently laid her on the bed.

The two of them exchanged silent glances for a while.

An Nuannuan’s gaze never left him, reminiscent of a staring bunny.

Xu Musen couldn’t help but cup her chubby cheeks and rubbed them gently with just a bit of force.

How he had missed this very touch!

It was as soft as cotton candy and irresistibly moist.

"Still staring? Don’t your eyes hurt?"

Xu Musen said contentedly.

"Because, I want to catch up on all the days I haven’t seen Xu Musen."

An Nuannuan’s cheeks squished as she spoke, her voice slightly whistling. She also loved the sensation of Xu Musen’s slightly rough yet warm palms on her face.

As the girl spoke, her eyes reflected only his image, like a sparkling river of stars in the night sky.

Her lips were slightly pursed, translucent and tender.

Returned affection is sweeter than new love.

Xu Musen leaned down and savored a long-missed kiss.

Sweet—

Like bite-sized pieces of fruit pudding.

Although the family had given them privacy, Xu Musen didn’t overstep, preferring moderation.

As he lifted his head, An Nuannuan seemed reenergized, her whole complexion glowing rosily and pliantly nestled in Xu Musen’s embrace.

"Why didn’t you give me a heads-up about coming today?"

An Nuannuan poked him with her finger.

"But you had already guessed, hadn’t you?"

Xu Musen replied with a smile. An Nuannuan might seem simple but was actually quite clever.

If he mentioned that Santa Claus would visit her, she would definitely guess that Santa Claus was Xu Musen.

"Also, I wanted to surprise you. Are you happy with it?"

An Nuannuan nodded, then looked up into Xu Musen’s eyes, "But rather than a surprise, I’d prefer being told in advance."

"Why? Don’t you like surprises?"

Xu Musen asked, smiling.

An Nuannuan snuggled even closer into his arms.

"Because a surprise only makes me happy for a moment, but if you tell me in advance, I could be happier a day sooner, or even a month sooner if you tell me a month ahead..."

An Nuannuan calculated with her fingers, appearing to count her losses more and more.

She pouted, her large eyes shimmering with a luster that was impossible to deny: "You owe me all this happiness..."

Listening to her, Xu Musen felt a warmth at the core of his being and couldn’t help but laugh, gently pinching An Nuannuan’s chin: "Then how would you like me to make it up to you?"

An Nuannuan’s face flushed as her mind raced with many thoughts, like going shopping together, eating delicious food, watching movies, or simply quiet moments watching the world go by...

"Nuannuan, didn’t you want to see the snow?"

Xu Musen’s voice interrupted her train of thought.

The mention of snow filled An Nuannuan with anticipation, but the scenery outside the window was bare—the likelihood of snow an impossibility.

"But it doesn’t snow in Huhai."

"I promised you, this year you’ll definitely see snow."

Xu Musen looked at her expectant eyes, a mysterious smile on his face, then stretched out his finger and pointed towards her window sill.

Following the direction of Xu Musen’s pointer, An Nuannuan saw that where a flowerpot usually sat on one of the room’s windows, now there was a small box decorated with Christmas stickers.

"Go take a look."

Xu Musen smiled, helping her up and guiding her to the window.

An Nuannuan eyed the Christmas-stickered box, resembling a carefully prepared Christmas gift.

In the center of the box was a button, with an arrow indicating it.

She looked up at Xu Musen, the brilliance of surprise in her eyes shining brightly.
