After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

The college entrance exam was imminent.

The atmosphere of study in the school had reached its peak.

Whether it was genuine or just for show, everyone had gotten into the groove of studying, fully concentrating in class and sleeping soundly once it ended.

Stacks of test papers piled high on the desk, every time a teacher walked into the room, they'd frown and call for the windows to be opened to air out...

A whiff of childishness.

During the noon break, everyone was terribly sleepy, but the school hadn't yet equipped every classroom with air conditioning, so having a few fans running was considered good enough.

Especially after running back from lunch, everyone would be drenched in sweat.

Yao Mingyue, although beautiful as a fairy, was after all a normal human being, and she sweated too.

It was just that when a beautiful girl sweated, it gave off the impression of perfume.

A slight sheen of sweat made her fair skin seem even more delicate and glowing, especially at the collarbone.

The short sleeve clung more tightly to her skin because of the perspiration, making Yao Mingyue's perfect figure all the more enticing.

She fanned herself with a textbook, gently tugging at her collar to let in a cool breeze, and Xu Musen, being the closest, could even see the strap marks of her underwear.

Xu Musen silently took a sip from his water bottle.

He surmised that after Yao Mingyue started college, she could still level up.

"The color I'm wearing today is off-white," said Yao Mingyue suddenly, turning her head and smiling at him.

Xu Musen turned his head away, thinking to himself, I'm still wearing flowered underpants!

Lunch break time arrived.

Xu Musen laid his head down on the desk, ready for a nap.

He always felt that since his rebirth, his physical fitness had improved a lot, but so had his consumption.

He'd get hungry or sleepy very easily.

This feeling was like going from a 1.0t engine directly to a 4.0t, V8 engine!

Of course, it would burn more fuel.

But now he felt that in terms of physical fitness, Yao Mingyue might not necessarily be his match.

At noontime, everyone lay their heads on the desks and napped.

The fans creaked and whirred as they circulated the air.

Xu Musen could always smell the fragrance emanating from Yao Mingyue's body.

This sensation, it was like in his previous life when the two of them had shared a bed, sleeping nestled against each other.

Xu Musen subconsciously turned to look at her.

At that moment, Yao Mingyue laid facing him with her cheek resting on her hand, her eyes closed with a natural curvature at the corners, her nose high and proud, her lips a girlish pink with a hint of rosy red.

Today, she too wore a white short-sleeved shirt.

There was a widely circulated risqué joke among high schoolers: during a nap, peep at the girl you like, and then your eyes meet hers through the sleeve's opening.

But on the other side of Yao Mingyue was a classroom wall.

And Xu Musen wasn't that lewd.

He closed his eyes and began to rest as well.

Half an hour later, Yao Mingyue quietly opened her eyes, not a hint of sleepiness in them.

She looked at Xu Musen's profile in silence, her eyes swirling with countless emotions.

She also moved her delicate nose slightly, sensing the familiar scent coming from Xu Musen.

Unable to resist, she drew a little closer, intently gazing at Xu Musen's face.

She always felt that recently, Xu Musen's spirit and energy had improved a lot, his brows carrying a sense of ease and confidence that wasn't there before.

Yao Mingyue's heart was a whirlwind of emotion, as she watched Xu Musen, convinced in her heart.

As long as she remained more outstanding than him, he would always be hers!

Gazing at his sleeping face so close by, Yao Mingyue suddenly wanted to press her lips to his, but this was a classroom, so she restrained herself.

At last, her gaze fell on Xu Musen's hand resting on the table.

Yao Mingyue glanced around, then using a textbook as cover, she reached out her slender fingers, inching closer to Xu Musen's.

Their fingertips lightly touched.

Yao Mingyue actually felt a little nervous, but also exceptionally thrilled...

The warmth spreading from the fingertips was like the tantalizing temptation of Pandora's box being opened—she couldn't help but want more.

But she restrained herself.

Looking at Xu Musen's profile, she ended up just gently hooking her finger with his.

"But, after all, you'll be mine eventually..."

Yao Mingyue's mouth curved into a smile, carrying the deliriousness of an infatuated girl amidst her illness.

And in his sleep, Xu Musen, smelling the scent wafting off Yao Mingyue, drifted into a dream.

He dreamt they were nestled together on the bed, and Xu Musen felt something soft in his hand.

He subconsciously clutched it and gently caressed it in his palm.

Yao Mingyue, who had her eyes closed, suddenly snapped them open upon feeling this, seeing him holding her finger.

Her heart raced uncontrollably.

She had intended to pull back, but, looking at his sleeping face, her eyes sparkled softly.

So she pretended to close her eyes again.

The bell for the end of lunch break rang.

Xu Musen slowly opened his eyes, but he felt something slippery and tender in his hand, which he squeezed lightly.

"Mhm..."

With a soft yelp, Xu Musen finally realized that he was holding Yao Mingyue's finger!

He jumped, recalling the dream just now—had he unconsciously acted out in his sleep?

Thankfully, it was only a dream of holding hands—if it had been anything else... the sin would have been much greater.

Just as Xu Musen was about to release his grip, his gaze met with Yao Mingyue's slowly opening eyes.

Her phoenix eyes revealed a hint of "shock," looking at her finger held by Xu Musen.

Xu Musen let go, and on seeing Yao Mingyue's expression, he glanced around first thing.

Good, as expected, a few classmates had witnessed the scene.

Each one's eyes were twinkling with the thrill of juicy gossip!

"Look, what did I tell you before, he's just biding his time."

"It's only been a few days, and he finally couldn't stop himself from making a move."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, and to take advantage while she's sleeping, shameless!"

Xu Musen's face darkened, he couldn't be bothered to explain to these people.

After all, they only cared about their own enjoyment of the gossip, not the truth.

And Xu Musen himself didn't know what was really going on.

At this moment, Yao Mingyue heard the whispers around her. She pressed her lips together feeling a bit aggrieved, but then she seemed to let it go.

"Everybody stop, it wasn't on purpose. Maybe he's just over-stressed from studying and didn't sleep well."

Yao Mingyue proactively defused the situation, eliciting even more admiration from the classmates.

"The school beauty's magnanimity is just different. Just look at Xu Musen's attitude before, this is truly forgiveness from someone of stature."

"If it were me getting to pinch the school beauty's little hand, I'd accept it even if it meant scoring first in the school and getting into Tsinghua or Peking University directly!"

"Why don't you go die?"

...

The classmates' discussions made Xu Musen's eyelid twitch, he was still a little confused.

But watching Yao Mingyue's performance, he was sure that this "accident" also had something to do with her!

And yet, despite the cunning of the act, it left no room for objection.

So, in everyone's eyes, Xu Musen seemed to have turned from a desperate admirer into a pervert...

Xu Musen looked toward Yao Mingyue.

At that moment, Yao Mingyue was winking at him slightly, "No need to thank me, I understand you. At your age, with the stress of college entrance exams, you want to vent, who can blame you—we're childhood friends, after all."

"..."

Alright, alright, this is how you want to play, huh!

Xu Musen seriously suspected this was her revenge for the time he had casually picked up a pen from her thigh!

And now these scandalous words.

"The pressure of college entrance exams, the relief from a childhood friend, huh?"
