A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire-Chapter 909: Confession
Ren Yao’s expression was a bit strange; responding to Mu Yan was awkward, but ignoring her was equally awkward.
After all, she genuinely had feelings for Jiang Jingheng, and she didn’t expect to marry him from the start.
To have slept with such a big shot even once was already a gain, not to mention the huge benefits that followed.
She chuckled and aimed to walk outside.
Mu Yan watched her back, curled her lips, and followed her out.
Upon returning to the private room, Mu Yan saw Ren Yao standing next to her seat, holding a wine glass.
She looked at Jiang Jingheng and said, "Young Master Jiang, I toast to you and Mrs. Jiang, wishing you happiness in your new marriage."
Jiang Jingheng sat there, tapping his fingers on the table indifferently, without showing any change in emotion on his handsome face, but his light brown eyes were extremely cold.
Anyone could tell that Jiang Jingheng wasn’t interested in Ren Yao at all, yet she still wanted to cozy up to him.
Actually, most people present could understand Ren Yao; the entertainment industry isn’t easy, and she’s been in it for seven or eight years without making a name, and how many seven or eight years does a woman have?
If she could latch onto a big shot like Jiang Jingheng, there’d be no shortage of resources she could access.
Of course, everyone despises her behavior a bit.
Young Master Jiang openly saying he has a wife, and she still sticks up to him—how desperate is she?
Moreover, couldn’t she see that Young Master Jiang wasn’t interested in her?
Mu Yan suddenly stepped forward and said, "Miss Ren might be under some misunderstanding; Young Master Jiang and Mrs. Jiang aren’t newlyweds."
Ren Yao froze for a moment and looked at her.
Mu Yan explained, "They’ve been married for one or two years already; your congratulations are a bit late."
Ren Yao looked a bit embarrassed, but her mood shifted quickly, "I just found out, so I thought they were newlyweds."
Mu Yan calmly said, "No need for congratulations; after all, a remarkable woman like Mrs. Jiang probably isn’t too concerned about your congratulations."
Ren Yao’s face instantly turned ugly; Mu Yan was indirectly saying she wasn’t worthy.
Yet in front of Jiang Jingheng, she not only couldn’t refute, but had to agree.
She forced a laugh, "Yeah, I’m just a small figure, how could I catch Mrs. Jiang’s eye?"
Mu Yan nodded, "Could Miss Ren please make some room, this is my seat."
"Sure!" Ren Yao turned around and returned to her seat.
Mu Yan smiled slightly at those around her and then sat down, just to hear Wang Linjia tease her, "Mu Yan, you’re defending Young Master Jiang’s honor with all your might, ensuring not even a female mosquito gets close to him. Tell me, what perks did Mrs. Jiang give you?"
Ren Yao’s face darkened even more, as she was clearly the "female mosquito" being referred to, but her intentions were clear to everyone present, so she could only pretend not to understand and quietly drink.
Mu Yan looked at Jiang Jingheng helplessly, "What perks? I just feel bad for Mrs. Jiang, Young Master Jiang has such a virtuous and beautiful wife, yet he’s out attracting bees and butterflies."
Jiang Jingheng lifted his eyelid and looked at her, "Attracting bees and butterflies?"
Mu Yan stared at him directly; taking him out for a meal and ending up with a love rival, if that’s not attracting bees and butterflies, what is?
Jiang Jingheng’s peach blossom eyes slightly lifted, "I’m not interested in bees and butterflies; from the beginning to the end, there’s only Mrs. Jiang in my sight."
Mu Yan’s cheeks warmed slightly, and she immediately turned her face away; why did this man declare his emotions so abruptly? But, it felt quite delightful.
Sister Wen and Wang Linjia, among others, couldn’t bear to watch; they’d rather not know about their relationship than endure this public display of affection.
Ren Yao’s face turned liver-colored, realizing that her flirtatious glances were nothing but a joke in his eyes.
