A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire-Chapter 512: Cold War!

After the auction ended, Mu Yan immediately retreated.

Based on her understanding of a certain person, he would definitely wait for her to leave together.

When she reached the parking lot, Mu Yan immediately called that certain person.

Before the call was answered, she saw his car approaching.

Just as she walked over to the passenger seat, she saw him getting out of the car.

"Jing Heng." She called out, and saw him walking over, grabbing her wrist and leading her forward.

Mu Yan was somewhat puzzled and asked, "Where are we going?"

Jiang Jingheng, with a stern face, said nothing and directly pulled her to the faucet, turning it on to wash her hands.

The water was pleasantly warm, and Mu Yan looked at him in surprise. Why was he washing her hands? Her hands weren’t dirty.

Seeing his stern face as he focused on washing her hands, she didn’t ask further questions.

Soon after washing, Jiang Jingheng took her back to the car.

Mu Yan got into the passenger seat, just buckled the seatbelt and was about to speak, when Jiang Jingheng hit the gas, and the car sped off.

Her body jolted, and her head almost bumped into the window.

She grabbed the handle and turned her head to see the man’s gloomy profile.

Feeling uneasy, she tentatively asked, "Are you angry?"

Jiang Jingheng looked ahead and remained silent.

She asked again, "Are you upset?"

Jiang Jingheng still did not speak.

The silence in the car was a bit oppressive, making Mu Yan feel very uncomfortable.

Suddenly, she reached out to tug on Jiang Jingheng’s arm, but he dodged her.

Her hand froze mid-air, disbelievingly looking at him.

What did this mean?

Did he dislike her so much that he wouldn’t even let her touch him?

Mu Yan withdrew her hand, sat back in her seat, leaned against the backrest, looked forward, and refused to explain out of spite.

Moreover, there wasn’t much to explain; she hadn’t done anything to betray him.

But the more she thought, the more upset she became.

She had been with him for so long, and this was the first time he had shown her a cold face. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

If he wanted to ignore her, then so be it. If he had the guts he’d ignore her forever.

She turned her head to look out the window, not wanting to give him even a glance.

The scenery outside kept retreating from her sight, and her thoughts returned to the scenes from tonight’s auction.

She truly had no ambiguity with Ning Shishen, so why did he misunderstand her?

The more she thought, the more upset she became, and tears welled up.

Most importantly, she didn’t want him to know, didn’t want to use her tears to make him show weakness, so she cried silently, not daring to even sniffle.

But the grievances in her heart grew with her tears, spiraling out of control.

Jiang Jingheng was in a terrible mood; if the person in front of him weren’t her, he would definitely have exploded, not just reacted as mildly as he did.

He was very angry, extremely angry.

Every time he thought of her standing next to Ning Shishen all night, he wished Ning Shishen would disappear forever.

But he knew full well she wasn’t the type to be fickle; there was nothing between her and Ning Shishen, but that didn’t mean Ning Shishen didn’t have feelings for her.

Spending so much money to buy her painting, was it to win her favor?

This invisible bomb’s danger seemed to be rising.

With her next to him, gradually, he calmed down.

Actually, right after dodging her hand, he regretted it.

She had always been sensitive to such things, who knows how upset she must be.

He turned his head to look at her, only to see the back of her head.

Was she angry?

He freed a hand to try and touch her, but then his eyes caught the shadow on the window and saw her covering her face with a hand, seemingly crying.

His expression changed abruptly, he reached over to turn her towards him, seeing her crying like a tearful mess, her eyes swollen.
