A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire

Lan Xi was driving, Mu Yan got in the car, and immediately reported her whereabouts to Jiang Jingheng.

After listening, Jiang Jingheng said, "Send me the location later, I’ll come pick you up."

"Okay." Mu Yan hung up the phone,

Lan Xi asked Mu Yan while driving, "Be honest with me, how did you meet Brother Jiang?"

Mu Yan dreaded this question from others, as the embarrassing story was something she couldn’t directly confess to.

She vaguely said, "I was in a bit of trouble at the time, and he helped me."

"Oh, a hero rescuing a beauty," Lan Xi realized suddenly.

Soon after, she felt something was off, "Brother Jiang doesn’t seem like the kind to help out just anyone in need."

Mu Yan coughed lightly, there was no way she could say he was lured by her looks.

She made an excuse and said, "Maybe he was in a good mood that day."

Lan Xi gave her a peculiar look, probably only she would think that way.

At the Jiang Family Mansion, after Jiang Jingheng hung up the phone, he went downstairs to the living room.

The Old Sir Jiang, the first and second branch of the Jiang Family were all sitting in the living room chatting.

Qiu Shuyun saw Jiang Jingheng come down and sighed, "Jingheng, Xiyue is such a good girl, how could you just let her go so easily?"

Jiang Yutai, who had always been at odds with Jiang Jingheng, wouldn’t miss the chance to mock him.

"Jingheng, you should have said Xiyue wasn’t interested in you, maybe I would’ve tried harder to win her over."

Jiang Jingheng glanced at him, "Didn’t you try and fail too?"

Jiang Yutai’s face couldn’t hold up, "Wasn’t I just being considerate of you and holding back?"

"So, you really pursued her?"

Jiang Yutai realized he fell into a trap and prepared to explain, "I..."

"Shut up!" Old Sir Jiang reprimanded loudly, looking at him with disdain.

He truly couldn’t bring himself to like this second grandson in the least.

Jiang Yutai was fuming, glaring fiercely at Jiang Jingheng.

Jiang Jingheng glanced back, full of provocation, Jiang Yutai was just short of getting up to fight him.

Jiang Jingheng withdrew his gaze, moved to sit beside Jiang Wenhao, and the brothers exchanged a look.

Qiu Shuyun, unwilling to see her son humiliated, deliberately said, "The Zhao Family match was such a good one, it’s a pity it’s gone. It will be hard for Jingheng to find such a good Yue Family in the future."

Yin Manqing looked upset, "Our Jingheng is still young, he can take his time to choose."

"Choose what? Which family’s daughter would marry a bastard child?" Jiang Yutai sneered.

"You..." Yin Manqing was fuming.

"Yutai, watch your mouth!" Qiu Shuyun rebuked her son.

Jiang Yutai chuckled lightly, "Sorry, I accidentally spoke the truth."

"It seems I don’t have to stay for dinner again." Jiang Jingheng suddenly stood up and walked out.

"Stop right there!" Old Sir Jiang commanded in a chilly tone.

Jiang Jingheng halted but didn’t turn around.

Old Sir Jiang immediately issued an order, "Yutai, apologize to your cousin."

This time Jiang Yutai cooperated, stood up, and said insincerely, "Jingheng, I’m sorry, you know your brother speaks without a filter, I didn’t mean it."

Jiang Jingheng ignored him and walked out.

"Jingheng!" Yin Manqing stood up and called after him.

As Jiang Jingheng left, the atmosphere at home changed.

Old Sir Jiang immediately vented all his anger on the second branch and Jiang Yutai, of course, showing no good face to Yin Manqing as a daughter-in-law either.

"How do you all educate your children? One speaks nonsense, the other is stubborn as a mule, are you trying to drive me to my grave?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhenghong and his brother immediately reprimanded their wives and apologized to Old Sir Jiang.

Jiang Wenhao turned his head towards the door; every time using this escapist move, just how unwilling he was to stay in the house.
