After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady-Chapter 894 - 369: Xiao Sickly Cutie Who Doesn’t Want to Be Jealous, Huhai’s First Snowfall. _2
"You know what's up."
Zhu Yulan then slightly curved her mouth into a smile.
There seemed to be a moment of silence between the two.
This was unlike Xu Musen's usual cheerful demeanor, but he always felt their current relationship was a bit odd.
The main issue was he wasn't sure how well she could handle things emotionally, and this was causing him some concern.
If it had been before, he would have already been sitting cross-legged and confronting her.
"I mean, it's just a confession, right? And it's not even you confessing, so why are you the nervous one?"
Zhu Yulan looked at his expression and suddenly laughed, clearly enjoying the situation.
So this arrogant guy has this side too, huh.
Xu Musen looked at Zhu Yulan's detached smile and shook his head with a laugh, "Didn't expect you to be so easygoing."
"How else should I be? You're not planning on taking responsibility, are you?"
Zhu Yulan swirled her coffee cup and blinked lightly, her gaze slightly profound and heated.
Xu Musen took a piece of dessert and bit into it, locking eyes with her for a moment without speaking.
Zhu Yulan's gaze softened, she lifted her coffee cup for a gentle sip and chuckled, "It's just a confession, not anything else. I haven't lost anything... and you certainly don't need to take any responsibility."
"I kissed you."
Xu Musen spoke clearly while chewing on his dessert, causing Zhu Yulan to almost shake her coffee cup out of her hand.
She hadn't expected Xu Musen to admit this openly.
"To be precise, you kissed me, well no, it was our lips that touched... Anyway, there was a kiss."
Xu Musen's tone was somewhat resigned and slightly bitter, just like Zhu Yulan had been that drunk night.
Now, Zhu Yulan's face finally blushed slightly, and she gently pushed her glasses, "Really? I don't remember…"
"You sister probably has photos, otherwise you could check the Cemetery's surveillance."

Xu Musen spread his hands.
Zhu Yulan's face turned even redder, she was starting to not understand what Xu Musen was thinking.
After all, Xu Musen had been playing dumb the entire day, but now he had suddenly gone on the offensive.
Especially about this matter, if neither of them mentioned it, it could have been like it never happened, wouldn't that be the best outcome for this scumbag?
"What are you trying to say with this?"
Zhu Yulan pursed the corners of her lips.
"Shouldn't I be the one asking you, you kissed me and act like you don't know anything, what do you mean by that?"
Xu Musen stared at her.
Zhu Yulan realized that the initiative seemed to have suddenly reversed, her earlobes heating up, "I don't mean anything, it might be just an accident, or maybe I got carried away, or maybe... I just wanted to kiss! What can you do about it! It was my first kiss, and you, a deadbeat, what do you want, huh!"
By the end, Zhu Yulan had got worked up, her cheeks flushed, and she was glaring at him, almost as if she might climb over the table to bite him.
Xu Musen watched her posture, and only after a few seconds did he laugh, reaching out to flick her forehead, "There's the Miss Zhu I know, what's with that composed act just now, aren't you tired of pretending?"
Zhu Yulan saw his characteristically annoying smile, knowing she'd been played again, feeling annoyed but also happy.
Because Xu Musen didn't shy away from the topic, even brought it up proactively, it was after all her first kiss... no girl wouldn't care about that.
"You actually don't have to tell me all this, it was all voluntary... you haven't lost anything." Zhu Yulan made the mistake many girls do, obviously so in love yet still saying things that made her sound wronged to bait him.
"I know what you're thinking, and if I didn't say anything, just played dumb, perhaps I really could've avoided any responsibility, since I'm a scumbag after all, this is my special talent."
Xu Musen spoke with a smile, taking another bite of his dessert, "Unfortunately, I'm a scumbag, but not a vile person, whatever the outcome, I will not pretend it didn't happen."
Zhu Yulan's lips trembled slightly, "So... are you saying you want to take responsibility?"
Xu Musen held the dessert in his hand, looked at Zhu Yulan, didn't say a word, just brought the partially eaten dessert to her mouth.
For a full minute, they just looked at each other.
Zhu Yulan suddenly smiled, opening her mouth to take the dessert Xu Musen had offered.
"Scumbag…"
She chewed on the dessert, its sweet and sour taste like a spring rain in winter, she cursed softly, then set down her coffee cup.
She took a long breath, the anxiety she'd felt just moments ago swept away.
"Ptui! Miss me letting a scumbag take responsibility. Wait till you've sorted out your issues with the little boss and your childhood sweetheart, then We'll settle our scores!"
Zhu Yulan lifted her head proudly.
"Alright, I'll be waiting for you to hold me accountable."
Xu Musen smiled, just then there was a knock on the door, and Yang Xiaotao poked her little head in, holding two family buckets in her arms, and came running over.
"Here! Boss Xu, mission accomplished!"
Yang Xiaotao placed one bucket in front of the two and hugged her own, "Now I'm gonna go eat!"
