What do you want?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get lost! I have something serious to tell you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Musen laughed, closed his book, and stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But his gaze met with Yao Mingyue's.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During lunchtime in the past, Musen always clung to Yao Mingyue, having lunch with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, Musen just patted He Qiang on the shoulder, \"Come on, Qiang Zi, I'll treat you to a chicken drumstick today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Qiang also saw Yao Mingyue's expressionless face; the pressure was too much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His bro had it hard sometimes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The brotherly loyalty in He Qiang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly he clutched his stomach, \"I can't, I have a frequent need to urinate! I'll go to the restroom first; you go ahead and eat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, He Qiang slipped away like a black catfish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Musen: ...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He saw the fleeting smugness in Yao Mingyue's eyes. She deliberately slowed down, waiting for Musen to strike up a conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Musen kept a normal expression, went straight out the back door, and ran towards the canteen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yao Mingyue watched his retreating figure, clenched her fist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ming Yue, I'm sure he's just too shy to speak to you. Boys always want to save face; maybe he's rushing to save a seat for you in the canteen,\" her short-haired best friend Liu Ruonan said with a smile, \"Wasn't he always securing a spot in advance and waiting to eat with you before?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yao Mingyue's complexion improved somewhat, but her pride made her snort lightly, \"Who needs him to save a seat?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even though she said that, her pace quickened a bit, and she started walking toward the canteen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>High school canteens, lining up for food could be as intense as the Normandy landings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There's an old saying: a young man at his prime can eat his father into bankruptcy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This age group is in the final sprint of growth and development, and their appetites are frighteningly large.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Musen went to get a barbecue rice bowl with an extra chicken leg, then carried his plate to a corner spot and began devouring his meal with gusto.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ming Yue and her best friend also entered the restaurant; Ming Yue's naturally aloof aura always made people keep a subconscious distance from her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially the boys, who always liked to mention Ming Yue in their conversations, but turned red-faced and lacked the courage to even stand with her upon meeting her in person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her short-haired best friend also benefitted from this, seldom having to wait in long lines at the restaurant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both of them ordered a bowl of tonkotsu ramen and a plate of fruit salad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ming Yue could always spot Musen in a crowd at a glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And, there were indeed empty seats next to Musen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hehe, see, I told you he's just too embarrassed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The short-haired best friend said with a chuckle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ming Yue also curved her lips slightly and the two walked over to take the seats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, her best friend was considerate enough to leave a seat between herself and Musen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Musen was gnawing on a chicken leg; the familiar scent reached his nose, and he knew who had arrived without even looking up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An inescapable presence...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Musen, for a guy, you really shouldn't be so coy. If you want to make up with Ming Yue, just apologize, isn't it that simple? Why be so awkward?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The short-haired best friend initiated the conversation on behalf of Ming Yue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Musen was still chewing on his chicken leg, glancing at Ming Yue in front of him, who still maintained her cool expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why should I apologize?\" Musen's gaze landed on the girl again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Ruonan was taken aback, \"You, you said such harsh words to Ming Yue last week...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What was harsh about them? I've already admitted I'm nothing but a toad and respected her wishes not to foolishly pursue her anymore. Isn't that enough?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Musen spoke calmly, even with a hint of a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The onlookers ready for a show were all startled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ming Yue bit her lip tightly, her phoenix eyes squinting at Musen; she really couldn't understand the person in front of her anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her best friend, Liu Ruonan, choked up without response for a while, then became somewhat indignant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I mean, you're a grown man, is it necessary to say such nasty things just because your confession wasn't successful?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, if you just bowed your head and apologized, you and Ming Yue could still be friends. Besides, aren't you deliberately keeping a seat for Ming Yue right now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She emphasized particularly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who said I'm saving seats for you? You two chose to sit there yourselves; don't be so self-absorbed, okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Musen found it amusing, but also slightly helpless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past, when he and Ming Yue came to the restaurant, they were a given pair, and over time, everyone knew Musen would always be accompanied by Ming Yue within three steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So even if Musen came to eat alone, there would always be one or two seats next to him left unoccupied, with no one daring to take them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his remark, Liu Ruonan and Ming Yue were turned into clowns right on the spot... more like Harley Quinn!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ming Yue clenched her chopsticks so hard they were on the verge of snapping, her gaze fixed intently on Musen's retreating back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Ruonan, publicly humiliated like this, flushed so red her freckles stood out: \"Musen! Are you even a man? Just because you didn't succeed in confessing your feelings, there's no need to insult others like this!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Musen found it noisy; half the cafeteria was looking their way, making it impossible to enjoy his meal in peace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly shoveled the rest of his meal into his mouth, stood up, and walked away with his tray.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He, how could he act like that, Ming Yue, you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Ruonan was so angry her freckled face turned red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Crack!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chopsticks in Ming Yue's hand snapped, she looked at Musen's departing figure, barely controlling the emotions welling inside her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Musen...\" she enunciated the name word by word to herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The people around, witnessing the current state of Ming Yue, gradually averted their eyes, not knowing what to make of the scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scorching summer heat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They all felt a chill, sensing that... Musen may be in for a rough time ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>",1415,"2026-06-06T13:36:44.336Z",1,"novelbin.me","8066432edab2de0f1ff5fcdf1138d82f83efb3132fb48b257054a57625b183ef","after-rebirth-i-rejected-the-rich-yandere-lady-chapter-14","after-rebirth-i-rejected-the-rich-yandere-lady-chapter-12",1091,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fafter-rebirth-i-rejected-the-rich-yandere-lady-cover.jpg"]
