A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire

Chapter 1440: Chapter 1440: A Permanent Solution

Jiang Jingheng looked at Mu Yan’s nervous appearance, his heart softened to a puddle, and he sat by the bed, speaking gently: ”I’m not leaving.”

Mu Yan stared at him for a few seconds, seemingly finally reassured, slowly closing her eyes.

Jiang Jingheng gently released her hand and laid it down, then helped her with the blanket and turned off the lights, leaving only the wall lamp.

He sat by the bed, staring at her sleeping face as if he couldn’t get enough of looking.

Having not seen her for a few days, she seemed thinner than before, just looking at her makes one feel distressed.

It’s not that he thought Kong Lizhen was taking poor care of her, it’s just that he always wanted to give her the best.

But he couldn’t help it; if he wanted to solve the problem once and for all, he could only let her feel a bit aggrieved for a while.

The room’s door opened, Jiang Jingheng came out, gently closing the door, and was just about to walk forward when he saw Kong Lizhen standing in front of him.

He nodded slightly to her, ”Godmother, thank you for taking care of Yanyan during this time.”

Kong Lizhen said coldly: ”She’s my goddaughter, it’s my responsibility to take care of her, but you, shouldn’t you give me an explanation?”

”I’ve already explained to Yanyan that those rumors outside are not true,” Jiang Jingheng said.

”Does she believe you?” Kong Lizhen asked with a frown.

”I indeed have never done anything to wrong her,” Jiang Jingheng said solemnly, ”If I speak a single lie, then let me never find love again.”

Seeing his determined attitude, although Kong Lizhen was somewhat dissatisfied with him, she did not want to continue entangling in this matter.

”Have you encountered any trouble recently?”

Jiang Jingheng said calmly: ”Just a small trouble.”

Kong Lizhen gave him a glance, ”Being confident is good, but don’t let it go to your head.”

Jiang Jingheng’s face was cold and clear, calmly saying: ”Rest assured, I won’t gamble with Yanyan’s future.”

Kong Lizhen snorted lightly, ”Hope you remember what you said now.”

Her gaze fell on the door, asking: ”Yanyan is asleep?”

”Yes, I heard Yanyan went swimming today. She is weak; please stop her from doing such physically exhausting activities in the future,” Jiang Jingheng said indifferently.

Kong Lizhen was somewhat displeased, what’s wrong with having a swim? Making a fuss over nothing?

Seems like, as her godmother, she’s a bad woman, bullying her goddaughter?

She gave Jiang Jingheng a look, asking: ”You are a meticulous person, how come you trust leaving Nuannuan in my hands?”

Jiang Jingheng looked straight ahead, expressionless, calmly saying: ”If there’s someone in this world who wouldn’t hurt her, besides me, it would be you.”

Upon hearing this, Kong Lizhen’s expression turned stern, she looked at him just as their eyes met.

His pale brown eyes seemed calm and unruffled, yet mixed with an imposing aura.

After a moment of silence, Kong Lizhen said: ”If you dare to wrong her, the Kong Family will use all its power to make your life difficult.”

”You worry too much.” Jiang Jingheng said indifferently, ”I think it’s better for you to handle your own affairs first.”

Kong Lizhen understood his meaning, turned away with a sullen face.

Leaving the hotel, Jiang Jingheng got into the car, rubbing his eyes, his expression indescribably fatigued.

Lian Jun turned his head to look at him, speaking softly: ”Young Master, since you don’t want to be separated from the Young Madam, why not bring her home? I think the Young Madam is not the kind of person who is fickle-minded; her feelings for you run deep, not easily swayed by others.”

Jiang Jingheng turned his head to look out of the car window, the night obscuring the emotions in his eyes.

”I would rather she has misunderstandings about me.”

Lian Jun’s expression slightly changed, glancing at Jiang Jingheng, what does that mean?

”Let’s go.” Jiang Jingheng suddenly withdrew his gaze.

”Yes!”
