After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady-Chapter 969 - 393 Engagement and the Girl’s "Last Will" _3

The engagement is settled!

At night, Xu Musen followed his parents back to his own residential complex to stay.

Although they were engaged, with his parents around, Xu Musen didn't let Nuannuan follow him directly home.

Moreover, tonight his father-in-law and grandparents surely had a lot to explain and talk about with An Nuannuan.

Back in his familiar room.

Xu Musen went into the walk-in closet, where one compartment held an open wardrobe containing an impeccably white wedding dress.

It was the one An Nuannuan had tried on last time; after tailoring, it fit her perfectly.

Standing in front of the wardrobe for a long time, Xu Musen thought about how breathtaking Nuannuan would look in it on their wedding day.

He returned to the bedroom.

Xu Musen picked up his phone and messaged Yao Mingyue, but there was no reply for a long time.

Phone calls went unanswered as well.

Xu Musen could guess that Xiao Sickly Cutie was probably jealous and angry, but it was rare for her not to answer the phone.

Xu Musen had no choice but to call Liu Rushuang.

The call also went unanswered for a long time; Xu Musen felt something was off, but finally, in the last ring, it connected.

"Hello, Xiao Sen."

"Mom, did you go to bed already? Why did it take so long to answer the phone?"

"Ah... it's fine, it's fine, I was just taking a bath, didn't have my phone with me."

On the other end of the phone, Liu Rushuang's voice sounded slightly weary and nasal, and Xu Musen picked up on it: "Mom, are you feeling unwell?"

"Maybe a little cold, it's chilly over the New Year, but it's nothing... So, everything's going smoothly in Huhai for you, right? No trouble from her family?"

"Yeah, all is well, we've settled on the engagement."

"Ah... that's good." freёwebnoѵel.com

Liu Rushuang's voice paused for a moment then continued with a hint of a complex smile: "Xiao Sen has really grown up, soon you'll have a family of your own."

"Mom, I was concerned because Ming Yue didn't reply to my messages or calls, so I called to check."

"Ohh... Ming Yue, she just finished taking a shower, probably still blow-drying her hair. I'll let her know in a bit, you should rest early too, take care of your own matters, Ming Yue and I are fine."

"Okay, good, then you all take care too, we'll be back soon."

The call ended.

But Xu Musen still felt slightly uneasy.

He looked at his phone again; Yao Mingyue still hadn't responded to the messages. Just as he was considering whether to call again...

"Ding~"

The sound of a message notification.

It was from Yao Mingyue.

"Stay with your little fiancee, I hate two-timers the most. You can keep messaging me these few days, this beauty won't bother with you!"

Seeing the familiar tone, Xu Musen finally felt the anxiety dissipate.

He read it several times before replying with one sentence: "Wait for me to come back."

"Tch, come back or not, this beauty couldn't care less. Alright, this beauty is off to sleep, Xu-zi, you can leave now."

Xu Musen chuckled, this haughty tone could only come from her and no one else.

"Chirp~"

...

At this moment, in Zheng City.

The person on this side of the chat history, on this side of the phone screen, sending the messages is Liu Rushuang.

The phone belongs to Yao Mingyue, yet the current Yao Mingyue lies on the hospital bed, still in a coma.

Her face is pale, dressed in a hospital gown, resembling a sleeping beauty, and the lack of color on her face gives her a broken kind of beauty.

Liu Rushuang tenderly strokes her daughter's cheek.

At Yao Mingyue's bedside, there is also a diary, filled with her own handwriting.

And the message that Liu Rushuang just sent to Xu Musen, were two sentences from it.

Upon closer inspection, there is more.

For instance, "How to reply 'Good morning' to him."

"Ten phrases for what to say when he asks what I'm doing."

"The three truthful sentences I'd use to retort when I'm unhappy."

"The few whispers of wanting to act coquettishly once in a while (Mom, you're not allowed to peek)..."

The diary is nearly filled with ways to converse with Xu Musen, and almost every sentence is so natural, so fitting.

Without a decade, or even decades of interaction, such understanding would be impossible.

This diary was given to her by her daughter before she fainted, saying that if Xu Musen ever asked about her, to use the words from the diary to respond to him.

That fool would certainly not notice any flaws.

After all, there can be no one else so prideful, stubborn, and unreasonable... apart from her, Yao Mingyue...

The more Liu Rushuang read, the more heartbroken she felt. This wasn't just some encyclopedia of conversations.

It was clearly something else... like a will.

"Silly girl..."

Liu Rushuang's tone was complicated, mixed with a bit of indignation on behalf of her daughter.

Liu Rushuang would rather have her daughter be selfish all her life than see such a diary as the one before her now.

From those words, Liu Rushuang could feel just how deep her daughter's love for him was.

It was a love that penetrated the marrow, sealed within the soul.

Liu Rushuang exited the chat history, but then she saw her daughter's phone wallpaper, which was a photo of the two of them together.

Both were wearing high school uniforms, under the bright sun in June, on the day of graduation season, standing shoulder to shoulder with smiles blooming like gardenias—clearly appearing like a match made in heaven.

Liu Rushuang's eyes were sore as she touched her daughter's pale cheek on the hospital bed.

"My daughter, can you hear me? He's really getting engaged..."

Liu Rushuang shook her head as she looked at the photo of the two in the phone wallpaper, and at the dialogue recorded sentence by sentence in the diary.

Right now, it was as if she could truly see those youthful figures bickering and tenderly inseparable.

Liu Rushuang had almost been unable to restrain herself from telling Xu Musen just now. She understood Xu Musen's character; if he knew about Yao Mingyue's current situation, he would drop everything and come back right away.

But Liu Rushuang understood Xu Musen, and Yao Mingyue understood him even better.

So the last sentence she said before fainting was, "Don't tell him... I don't want to delay him anymore because of me... "

Tears of bitterness welled up in Liu Rushuang's eyes as she lovingly stroked her daughter's cold cheek.

"This little rascal, you're still so good to him, did he save your life in a past life or something..."
