I am reborn and refuse to be a sickly rich woman

Chapter 384 I want to marry you, you have to promise me.

The moonlight is beautiful.

Xu Musen and Yao Mingyue walked on this familiar road in the community.

The temperature in Zhengcheng is much lower than that in Shanghai. Although it is in the Central Plains, in terms of various customs and regions, Zhengcheng is actually located closer to the north.

The four seasons are distinct, but the nights are still very cold.

"Anything on your mind?"

Xu Musen noticed that Yao Mingyue had been a little absent-minded since she came downstairs.

Yao Mingyue opened her lips slightly, and a light white mist floated out from her delicate lips: "I always feel that the way Auntie looked at me after dinner just now was a little...weird."

"Really?" Xu Musen smiled and said, "You are just too sensitive and suspicious every day."

Yao Mingyue kicked him in dissatisfaction: "After all, I grew up with my aunt, how could I not see it! Did you say something to your aunt while you were washing the dishes?"

"It was just a casual chat."

Xu Musen nodded without explaining anything, which made Yao Mingyue so anxious that she bumped him with her shoulder again.

"Come on, tell me, what did you say?"

"I told her that I want to get married in the future."

Xu Musen smiled and spoke.

Yao Mingyue pursed her lips: "You and Nuannuan are getting engaged? No wonder Auntie is so happy..."

There was a hint of bitterness in Yao Mingyue's words. In fact, they have been a family for a long time emotionally.

She could feel that her aunt was happy when she came out of the kitchen just now, but she had some complicated feelings when she looked at her.

Maybe it's all the same. There will always be some regrets when the children you have watched grow up and had high hopes for do not end up together.

Thinking of this, Yao Mingyue felt a little upset. Obviously, no one was willing to accept this, but the ending still came to this.

Is all this really God's will... No, it's all her own fault for not cherishing it...

The air outside was very cold, like needles drilling into the body, and Yao Mingyue's steps became increasingly disordered.

"Yes, not all."

Xu Musen interrupted her thoughts and looked down at her with a smile: "My mother seemed to be more concerned about why you kept holding my hand when we were at the door."

Yao Mingyue was stunned for a moment, and then felt something was wrong.

"I'm holding your hand...Xu Musen, do you have any shame? It was you who insisted on holding me..."

But after she finished speaking, Yao Mingyue suddenly remembered something more important. She paused and said nervously, "What did Auntie... say?"

Xu Musen also stopped and sighed. The thick white mist condensed from his breath seemed to carry a bit of melancholy: "My mother said that I am going to get engaged to Nuannuan, and it is not appropriate for you childhood sweethearts to do this, so she asked me to think of a way. It will be my fault, or I can take you, my childhood sweetheart, as my wife."

Yao Mingyue was listening very nervously at first, but only at the end did she realize that this guy was just talking nonsense!
I'll give you a little loss! Why don't you just have a sweet dream and die a happy death!

She stepped on Xu Musen's foot angrily: "You are such a jerk, who is kidding you? What did Auntie say?"

Xu Musen laughed. Looking at her angry expression was much better than looking at her melancholy expression just now.

"What do you think my mom will say?"

Xu Musen threw the question back.

Yao Mingyue's eyes dimmed for a moment. She had already thought of countless possibilities in her mind. Perhaps she should ask them to be more careful in the future.

Maybe give them some distance...

Or maybe she was really a little unwilling. After all, Yao Mingyue also knew that Xu's mother had always regarded her as her future daughter-in-law since she was a child.

This relationship of nearly twenty years has long surpassed the ordinary relationship between daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law, and is like her own daughter.

We were born to be a family, but in the future we may really drift apart.

They all feel unwilling, but what's the point of being unwilling...

After all, Xu Musen is going to get engaged to An Nuannuan, and Nuannuan is also a very good girl.

Even with Yao Mingyue's paranoid personality, she really couldn't find any faults with An Nuannuan, not to mention that she had waited for Xu Musen for her entire life.

She deserves all this.

The night wind was so cold, like a thorn, as if it penetrated through the pores of the body and pierced into the heart along the blood vessels.

Yao Mingyue gently covered her chest. She should have fought for it, but she was also worried about her body. If she won, she would defeat An Nuannuan, but not herself, and in the end Xu Musen would be left alone. They would only be more sad...

Yao Mingyue looked at Xu Musen and pursed her cold lips: "Uncle and aunt... are also my parents. I know them. No matter how excessive I do, they will definitely give in to me and spoil me."

But I can’t do this, my uncle and aunt have been so good to me, you’ve been so good to me, and Nuannuan is also very good…”

Yao Mingyue's voice became smaller and smaller, and more and more bitter. She gently covered her chest with one hand, as if suppressing the terrible future.

Xu Musen looked at her silently and did not stop her from continuing.

"So, as long as this layer of window paper has not been broken, then don't tell these things to uncle and aunt. At the very least, I can still be their favorite half-new daughter in front of them. At the very least, it will not destroy the warm atmosphere that has been created with great difficulty..."

Yao Mingyue gritted her teeth gently. She felt a sour feeling accumulating in her eyes: "Xu Musen, will you...promise me?"

If there is a definite future, Yao Mingyue will of course fight for it openly.

But she was really afraid, what if she couldn't hold on until the future.

Xu Musen completely fell out with everyone for her, and she didn't live to see that day, which would only leave Xu Musen with more hurt.

Of course she was unwilling to accept this, but now she didn't want to hurt him, nor did she want the relationship between the two families to be affected in the future.

She can't be so selfish anymore in this life.

Facing the girl's eyes that were faintly shining with luster, Xu Musen reached out and gently stroked her cool and pretty face.

After looking at each other for a moment, he nodded: "Okay, I promise you."

Yao Mingyue's body trembled, as if she was relieved, but also as if she was relieved.

Anyway...it's fine this way.

Xu Musen gently stroked her drooping brows.

"I promised you the worst possible outcome, but if we can have a better future, you have to listen to me. I want you to be with me forever, forever, longer than this lifetime.

And even if I really want to marry two wives, you have to accept it with a pinch of your nose, understand?"

As Xu Musen spoke, he gently pinched the tip of her fair, cool, upturned nose.

Yao Mingyue's eyebrows trembled. She clenched her fist and punched the scumbag: "Scumbag! How can you... be so self-righteous? Who wants to be your second wife..."

She was originally the principal wife!
Not divorced yet!
"You will not agree to me? If you don't agree to me, I will confess to my parents tomorrow that we have already made up our minds and let them beat me to death for being such an unfilial son!"

Xu Musen acted like a rogue.

Yao Mingyue gritted her teeth and looked at him as a scoundrel, but the tears that she had been able to hold back just now couldn't help but fall.

Bad guy...how can he be so threatening?

But, he really never abandoned her. Yao Mingyue's heart was filled with fantasies about the future. Yes, compared to someone leaving silently, being able to get it was already a great gift.

"When did we become close friends? I'm still a virgin... Don't some people want to touch me?"

Yao Mingyue snorted, but at this moment she had a kind of broken beauty like a pear blossom in the rain.

Xu Musen did not explain. He just looked at the girl in front of him and gently wiped the tears from her eyes: "I will marry you, you have to promise me."

Yao Mingyue's body trembled. These words were better than all the sweet words and vows.

Yao Mingyue raised her eyes and looked at him. The cold wind blew the tears from the corners of her eyes. She seemed too cold to open her eyes. There was only warmth in front of her.

Xu Musen slowly opened his arms and spoke to her in a gentle voice: "Okay, I know you don't like people seeing you cry, come and hug me."

Yao Mingyue took a step forward and got into his arms, hugging him tightly in this place where they grew up together, just like when she was a child, every time she was wronged, she would hide in the arms of her brother Musen, and everything would pass...

After a long while, Xu Musen gently stroked her head: "Okay, go back, it's time to go to bed."

"Um…"

Yao Mingyue wiped her tears in her arms. She turned around, still not wanting him to see her red eyes from crying.

"Just now, some people at home wouldn't let me touch their hands, but now they can finally let me hold their hands for a while."

Xu Musen stretched out his hand. On that cold winter day, the bright moon was hanging high in the sky, and Xu Musen reflected in it looked like the warm winter sun.

We are only a few steps away from home, why are you still holding my hand? How pretentious.

Yao Mingyue put her hand over, and the warm palm seemed to offset all the coldness.

Fingers intertwined.

I, Yao Mingyue, am also a girl. What’s wrong with being pretentious?
Anyway, he was the one who took the initiative, so I should just... have some pity on him.

The two people walked with faint smiles on their faces. Although the distance was only a few steps, they seemed to have walked for a long time.

The empty villa is still clean and tidy.

"Anyway, I've already told my parents about Nuannuan's situation, so you shouldn't live here alone. Go back and live there starting tomorrow."

Even though there is floor heating in the villa, the empty feeling always makes people feel a little uncomfortable.

Yao Mingyue pursed her lips and said, "I can go and live there now, but what if you bring Nuannuan here?"

"That's true... If you give birth to seven or eight children for me, there won't be enough rooms."

Xu Musen thought about it seriously.

Then he was stepped on again. Yao Mingyue glared at him: "You wish, who would give birth to so many children for you...just let Nuannuan give birth to your own children, she can afford it!"

Xu Musen smiled and looked at a villa opposite the villa. This used to be his house, but he sold it later due to some unexpected circumstances.

It just looks like no one has ever lived there.

Anyway, I have money now, so it's time to buy back the house opposite.

Xu Musen made up his mind that he would contact the current owner tomorrow.

In fact, my parents have always been thinking about this house. After all, it is a place full of memories.

When Yao Mingyue came to her room, Xu Musen spoke: "Go to bed early, and remember to come for breakfast tomorrow. Don't make me treat you again."

"Oh…"

Yao Mingyue sat on the soft bed and looked at Xu Musen: "You can actually sleep in the room next to mine."

"I'm getting engaged soon, so please be careful of the impact!"

"Bah! Xu Musen, aren't you ashamed of saying that?"

Yao Mingyue was so angry that she didn't want to pay attention to him. Which scumbag just said with such determination that he wanted to marry two wives?
"Go away, I don't want you to serve me!"

Xu Musen laughed, walked up to Yao Mingyue, lowered his head and kissed her.

"Okay, then I'll withdraw first."

Xu Musen turned around and left. After driving all day, he was indeed a little tired.

Back to the street outside, Xu Musen turned his head and looked at the light on the second-floor window of the villa. Xu Musen smiled, waved at the window, and then turned around and went home.

Yao Mingyue leaned on the window, watching Xu Musen's figure slowly walking back. He turned around and waved. This was a tacit understanding between them.

"I will marry you, you have to promise me..."

Yao Mingyue muttered to herself, this sentence was really mean, but to her, it was like a life-saving straw for a drowning person.

She silently watched Xu Musen's figure disappear around the corner.

The corners of her mouth curved into a smile...

The cold wind blew in through the open window, each wind was like a thorn, piercing my chest. The temperature difference in Zhengcheng was compared to that in Shanghai, and the temperature at night could be said to have dropped sharply.

"Cough cough..."

Yao Mingyue coughed violently several times. Her heart seemed to be clenched at this moment. She felt a sweet and fishy taste in her throat. She spread out her hands and saw traces of blood on her palms...

As expected, in the last life, he couldn't hold on until his junior year. The probability is one in two...

Yao Mingyue slowly tightened her palms and closed the window. She lay on the bed and took out a thick photo album hidden in the cabinet.

The visit recorded every detail of the two people's life from childhood to adulthood. At the end, there were several love letters, all written by Xu Musen to her.

She watched bit by bit, and it seemed as if the scenes of the past twenty years were replayed in her mind one by one.

Really, it seems like this moment will last forever.

Yao Mingyue looked at the album. There were still many blank spaces at the back. One was for their wedding, another for their family, and the last page was for their gray hair...

From birth to old age.

If she could have such a perfection in this life, Yao Mingyue would be truly satisfied.

Xu Musen's words reappeared in her mind.

I want to marry you, you have to promise me.

Yao Mingyue coughed again. She wiped the red from the corners of her mouth and gently stroked the photo of Xu Musen in the album.

From childhood to adulthood, it is a face that I can never get tired of looking at.

She smiled.

If there really could be such an opportunity and future.

"I want to marry you, even if you don't agree..."

Who told you to spoil me so unreasonably?
