After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady

Ten minutes ago.

Yao Mingyue was sitting in a corner of the library, her heart fluttering a bit as she read the message that Xu Musen had sent.

Although she knew he was only so proactive because his mother had told him to, at least they could be together now...

Looking at the document in her hand, she felt as if she had more motivation now.

"Excuse me, is this seat taken?"

Just then, a male voice broke the silence.

In front of Yao Mingyue, a boy approached.

He had a handsome appearance and looked to be in great shape, his smile radiating like sunshine, his face was very clean.

He was the puppy-like type, very popular with girls at the university stage.

Definitely on the level of campus heartthrob.

His presence made quite a few girls' eyes gleam as they whispered excitedly among themselves, clearly indicating he had some fame around the school.

"It's him, remember? He's from the performing arts department, Wu Yifan. I heard he already signed with a talent agency. He's really good-looking. Looks like he's making the first move to strike up a conversation?"

"He does look good, and that girl is pretty too, yet she has such a cold look about her. But the two of them seem like a high-and-mighty queen with a puppy-boy combination, haha..."

The whispers around him made Wu Yifan feel a bit proud, after all, being discovered by a talent scout as a freshman wasn't something ordinary people could achieve.

He had always maintained the persona of a single, scholarly type, visiting the library deliberately to give the impression that he loved reading, a persona that he could cite later on if he became famous.

As someone who aimed to enter show business, he naturally encountered a lot of beautiful women.

But when he first laid eyes on Yao Mingyue, he was astounded by her beauty, unlike many stars who needed makeup and dressing up to elevate their demeanour.

Yao Mingyue rarely wore makeup unless she was meeting Xu Musen; her natural beauty without any adornments gave Wu Yifan the feeling that he was looking at a fairy-like elder sister.

He couldn't resist trying to hit on her; maybe he could even lead her on the path to the entertainment world.

If he could build a "Golden Boy and Jade Girl" partnership fresh out of college, he might become an overnight sensation.

Besides, Wu Yifan was very confident in his looks. After all, he was considered a star among campus heartthrobs, and dealing with an amateur should be a cinch, right?

However, Yao Mingyue had merely looked up at the sound of his voice, glanced at him, and then went back to her work without a change in expression.

Not even a single glance was given to him.

"..."

This was a first for Wu Yifan, being left out in the cold when he took the initiative to talk to a girl.

Yet that brief glance from Yao Mingyue had been enough to send his heart racing.

"Hi, my name is Wu Yifan. May I get to know you?"

As Wu Yifan spoke, he naturally took a book and started to sit down across from Yao Mingyue.

Yao Mingyue frowned slightly, taking another look at him.

Wu Yifan's smile was infectious.

But Yao Mingyue spoke indifferently, "Go play somewhere else, don't loiter around me."

"..."

Wu Yifan was stunned. How could someone who looked like a divine beauty be speaking such authentic Beijing riffraff talk?

But looking at her face, Wu Yifan immediately felt that all of this was forgivable. Discover exclusive content at empire

"Don't get me wrong, I just happened to be reading here."

"Then keep your eyes to yourself. Don't let them fall to the ground."

Yao Mingyue was sensitive to people's gazes, and she hated the attention from any man other than Xu Musen.

Yao Mingyue was always concise with others, but her words were piercing.

Wu Yifan was left somewhat speechless, the scenario unfolding differently from what he had imagined.

Although he had sensed Yao Mingyue's aloofness earlier, he hadn't expected her to be a chilled chili – cold and fiery.

Instantly, a keyword came to mind for Wu Yifan.

Good, woman, you've successfully caught my attention.

He maintained his elegant smile, every gesture professional, striking a pose with a hand propping up his chin.

"I was just admiring the scenery, but you happened to enter into it. Honestly, I find it a bit odd."

Wu Yifan chuckled lightly, "Odd enough to make someone want to be your friend."

Saying this, he pushed the bottle of water he had prepared towards Yao Mingyue, speaking gently, "Have some water to moisten your throat."

Although a bit cheesy, Wu Yifan's handsome appearance combined with this flirtatious line was like a player scoring on the basketball court only for Liu Yifei to come over with water and a towel, saying with affection, "Brother, you look so cool playing ball..."

It's hard for most people to resist.

Yao Mingyue grew increasingly irritated; she never had any patience for others.

Especially with someone trying to flirt with her, she generally wouldn't engage in more than three sentences before politely making her feelings known.

Setting down her pen, Yao Mingyue glanced at the smiling Wu Yifan.

"Get lost!"

The surrounding area went quiet for a moment following her blunt command.

There were those who were dismissive, but they typically wouldn't be this straightforward, usually trying to save face.

But not Yao Mingyue; she had no qualms about offending someone outright.

Of course, in her eyes, aside from a very few individuals, there was nobody she couldn't afford to offend.

Because of his two sentences, her writing speed had slowed by three seconds.
