Chapter 540: Chapter 540: A Clash of Equals!

Jiang Jingheng? Lin Jiamu’s pupils tightened, is he the eldest of the Shangcheng Jiang Family?

In the entertainment industry of Upper City, no one doesn’t know this name, even if not many have seen his true appearance.

From Qin Xi’s words, he had already guessed that the person Mu Yan sought was no ordinary individual, but he didn’t expect it to be him.

How would someone like him know Mu Yan? Even marry her? Is there some conspiracy behind this?

At this moment, Jiang Jingheng suddenly reached out his hand and said, "Mr. Lin, hello, I’ve heard so much about you."

Lin Jiamu snapped back to reality, stood up, and shook his hand, "Young Master Jiang’s name is the one that truly resonates."

Mu Yan felt relieved seeing Jiang Jingheng being polite and courteous, fearing he would act as he did with Song Cheng’an, making things awkward.

She hooked her arm around Jiang Jingheng’s and said, "Sit down, I’m starving."

"Alright!" Jiang Jingheng withdrew his hand and sat down with Mu Yan.

He said to her, "Next time you’re hungry, don’t wait for me."

"That’s not possible, you’re the main character today," Mu Yan whispered.

Jiang Jingheng looked at Qin Xi and said, "Next time, Miss Qin, please supervise her for me."

Qin Xi, knowing his affection for Mu Yan, smiled and said, "Sure."

Lin Jiamu felt a strange discomfort watching the three interact harmoniously.

Soon, the dishes were served.

Jiang Jingheng first served Mu Yan a bowl of soup, "Have some soup first."

"Okay." Mu Yan drank the soup with a spoon.

"Be careful, it’s hot," Jiang Jingheng warned.

He naturally picked up chopsticks to serve her food.

Qin Xi, unfazed by the sight, served herself a bowl of soup and also served Lin Jiamu one.

Seeing him staring blankly at the two opposite them, she said, "The mushrooms stew nicely."

Lin Jiamu snapped back, glanced at Qin Xi, and lowered his head to drink the soup.

He suddenly recalled an incident where, during a phone call with Mu Yan, a male voice appeared.

Mu Yan had said it was her agent, but now it seemed to be this person.

The meal felt sour for Lin Jiamu, especially since Mu Yan’s gaze had been fixed on Jiang Jingheng since he arrived.

Her eyes were full of tenderness and love, overly dazzling.

As if sensing something, Jiang Jingheng suddenly looked up, meeting Lin Jiamu’s gaze.

His light brown eyes showed no warmth, far from the affability displayed on his face.

The air between them seemed to fill with smoke, as if war were about to break out.

As men, they understood each other’s feelings for Mu Yan, unlike her who was oblivious.

Mu Yan looked up, seeing the two men staring at each other intently, and asked, "What are you doing, competing whose eyes are bigger?"

Jiang Jingheng retracted his gaze and looked at her, "Are you done eating?"

"Yes." Mu Yan nodded, "Almost."

"It’s all your favorite dishes, eat a bit more," Lin Jiamu quickly said.

Mu Yan smiled slightly, "Better not, eat too much and I won’t be able to sleep at night."

"True." Lin Jiamu tugged at the corner of his mouth.

Once the meal was over, it was time for everyone to leave.

Qin Xi raised her cup, saying, "Come on, let’s substitute tea for wine, cheers."

"Alright!" Mu Yan immediately picked up her cup.

The four chatted for a while longer before Mu Yan suggested it was time to go. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

She worried they would return too late, and Jiang Jingheng would have to stay up working.

Qin Xi and Lin Jiamu watched Mu Yan get into Jiang Jingheng’s car and leave from the roadside.

Qin Xi turned to Lin Jiamu, "Alright, we should leave too."

Lin Jiamu seemed oblivious, staring straight ahead, lost in thought.

Qin Xi sighed, "Come on, stop looking, no matter how good she is, she’s someone else’s wife now; do you want to be a third party?"

Lin Jiamu sneered, "Even if I’m willing, is she?"
