After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

There's always this indescribable feeling in my heart.

Things like indirect kissing seem to be overly sensationalized by neon animations.

Actually, it's quite normal for friends to drink from the same cup, right?

Between lips and lips, it's just a layer of mucous membrane cells.

If we look closer, it's just two layers of atomic structure, so even kissing isn't truly touching.

So to say that they have a purely platonic friendship is not wrong at all!

The boys around were all drooling with envy.

"Paying a guy to pamper herself? What kind of celestial being is this girl?"

"Psh! Only one ice cream for two people, let's go, no need to pity him!"

"Exactly, I can eat two by myself, strawberry and matcha, switching between them! I'm gonna eat eat eat eat eat!!"

...

The sports field.

A few days of campus life had gotten the freshmen accustomed to university life.

There were all sorts of activities happening on the field.

Some were having a flea market, others were playing hoop toss, there were even girls doing manicures at a stall, and groups playing cards or board games, while in a corner of the field, someone was singing with a speaker...

The carefree college life is definitely the purest and happiest time in one's life.

Xu Musen was guiding An Nuannuan past each.

He played hoop toss with her and bought some comic books from the flea market.

"Xu Musen, what's a manicure?"

An Nuannuan watched a few girls gathered around a table, sticking all sorts of shiny things on their nails, her eyes filled with curiosity.

"It's just adding little decorative items to the nails."

"Oh~ Should I get one too?"

Children seem to love shiny things by nature, as she raised her fair, tender little hand.

Her fingers were as white as spring onions, nails round and pink, with adorable lunulas visible.

Some say that the more prominent the lunulas, the healthier the person is; if a young man lacks them, it's usually a sign of weak kidneys.

"You shouldn't get one," Xu Musen said, looking at her nails and decisively speaking his mind.

"Why not?"

"Because your nails are already pretty. Putting those things on might contain some toxins, and it could be bad if you accidentally ingest them."

"Oh."

An Nuannuan nodded her head, but why would she inadvertently ingest them?

She suddenly asked, "What about nails on the feet?"

Xu Musen paused in his tracks, looked down at An Nuannuan's tender little feet and cute toenails that shone in the night light.

"Absolutely not."

"Why?"

"Because it's easy to get nail fungus, and one infection could spread to two, you know? Besides, your toenails look fine as they are; you don't need it," Xu Musen earnestly explained.

An Nuannuan took a sip of her fruit tea, squinting her eyes and acknowledging with an "oh," and they continued walking.

The two roommates also sneaked up from behind, also glancing at the shiny manicures at the stall.

"Pah! This guy just knows how to sweet-talk Nuannuan. I get manicures all the time and never had nail fungus, he's obviously just thinking it'd be inconvenient to hold hands after getting a manicure, and stuff about toenails, so perverted..." Ge Jiayue spat in disdain.

Jiang Jinfang pondered as if struck by a thought, "Perhaps, the cunning one might be Nuannuan, you know?"

"What? Nuannuan, cunning?" Ge Jiayue laughed as if it were a joke.

An Nuannuan always seemed a bit simple, though intelligent, her emotional intelligence seemed to be quite lacking.

It was Jiang Jinfang who initially wanted to steal Xu Musen away, but after interacting with him for a few days,

and especially after knowing that another girl of school beauty level tried to seduce Xu Musen unsuccessfully, she stopped pursuing such thoughts.

It was like handing her a spoon to dig a corner of the Great Wall.

Simply not on the same level.

Jiang Jinfang's gaze lingered on the manicure booth before she said, "Who would do pedicures here? Yet she suddenly asked that question, which really means 'I showed you my feet, now compliment me'."

"Ah??" Ge Jiayue was stunned, still somewhat incredulous.

She could understand that when in a relationship, girls do dress in ways that highlight their figure and temperament.

Being complimented by a boyfriend could make one happy for a long time.

But if that was the case, wouldn't it seem like An Nuannuan was teaching Xu Musen step by step how to flirt with her?

They continued walking.

Seeing someone with a speaker playing guitar and singing, An Nuannuan listened intently.

"Do you like listening to music?"

"Yes, my mom used to love singing lullabies to me."

An Nuannuan said, suddenly looking up at Xu Musen, "Can you sing?"

"Me? I'm alright," Xu Musen modestly nodded his head; actually, he was quite a good singer, his voice was quite decent after all.

He remembered in his past life, holding a guitar under the girls' dormitory, singing "The Moon Represents My Heart" to confess to Yao Mingyue,

moving several girls to tears.

"Could you sing for me then?" An Nuannuan looked up at him.

Xu Musen cleared his throat, "Next time, maybe."

"Oh."

An Nuannuan nodded her head, and the two of them arrived at a quiet corner, watching the hustle and bustle of the sports field.

Xu Musen looked down at An Nuannuan, sitting in the wheelchair, noticing her legs starting to sway slightly with the breeze.

He asked, "How's the recovery of your legs going?"

As An Nuannuan licked her ice cream, she turned to look at him, "Xu Musen, it's been a long time since you massaged me."

Those clear, large eyes seemed to tell him to drop the pretense.
