So, did I get rejected or encouraged?
Musen couldn't help but ask, "What if I confess to you now?"
Nuannuan replied crisply and directly.
You just agreed to give a serious answer, didn't you?
"My grandma said that in one's lifetime, you can only follow one person and you must be cautious. You just mentioned that you don't know what liking someone means, and now you want to confess? You must be trying to trick me—I'm not stupid."
Nuannuan raised her fair and pretty face, her girlish voice imbued with soul, proud as if she had uncovered Musen's prank.
Musen was speechless for a moment, somewhat baffled. Was he being manipulated?
This seemingly naïve little girl was actually very smart at times.
Forget it, their relationship as it stands is quite good too.
"I'll take you back first. Otherwise, it might be difficult to send you away once their military training ends," Musen said standing up to fetch her sandals and put them on for her.
Nuannuan nodded her head, but her eyes glanced at his pillow; her lips pursing as if she'd made up her mind about something.
"If you really like those things, you can tell me."
Nuannuan's large eyes dodged slightly—she had seen news reports about perverts who steal women's underwear from college dorms every year.
Once caught, the consequences are severe.
She couldn't stand by and watch her only friend stray off the path.
Musen didn't understand what she meant.
Nuannuan, too, found it difficult to articulate her thoughts clearly but was determined to help him come out of it.
She looked down at her own fair and delicate little feet. This guy really liked feet.
Perhaps next time she could play Santa Claus and give him a sock or something…
Musen carried her downstairs, the thin fabric of his summer clothes slightly damp with sweat.
Nuannuan's figure was really intimidating.
Musen dared not walk too fast downstairs. Otherwise, before Nuannuan could catch her breath, he himself would have trouble straightening his back!
He dropped her off at the women's dormitory entrance.
Seeing the slight sweat on her forehead, Musen said, "Go back and rest well, I'll take you out for dinner tonight."
Nuannuan nodded obediently.
Musen waved goodbye and Nuannuan watched his figure disappear.
Under the sunlight, her cheeks seemed to blush with a hint of red.
"A confession, huh..."
When Musen returned to his dormitory, he started busying himself with preparing for his entrepreneurial venture.
He wrote out the action plan, just waiting for Li Rundong, Zhou Hangyu, and Ma Yaxing to come back before getting started.
As for He Qiang, of course, Musen hadn't forgotten about this good brother. His school too was a piece of the pie he intended to gradually consume all of Hu Hai's college-related businesses.
Musen stretched his body lazily.
Seeing there was still half an hour left before the military training ended, he decided to lie down and take a quick nap.
He picked up his pillow and casually flipped it, comfortably lying on top of it.
But with this position, Musen suddenly felt a slightly odd sensation on his face—soft with a hint of lace—along with that familiar fragrance filling his nostrils.
Musen opened his eyes, and what he saw in front of him made him stunned for a while.
Upon seeing the object before him, Musen jumped up as if he had seen a ghost.
He scrutinized the shape and lace trim...
This… he instantly knew whose it was.
Yao Mingyue always liked this style.
She had never changed it from a young age!
No wonder he always felt he could smell the fragrance when sleeping.
Musen thought he was perverted enough, but who knew that Yao Mingyue was even more so!
It went without saying that she must have put it in while making his bed.
Only because the pillow's zipper wasn't open before, he hadn't discovered it.
Now that the zipper was open...
Suddenly, Musen remembered something else.
"If you like those things, you can tell me..."
Nuannuan's words echoed in his ears, and Musen suddenly felt like he was a victim of misunderstanding; it was a messy situation whether it was true or not!
Musen was so irritated that his lips twitched.
He took out his phone and, for the first time since his rebirth, proactively made a call to Yao Mingyue!
"Where the heck are you?"
