A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire

Chapter 1549: Chapter 1539: Return

Actually, Mu Yan didn’t intend to reprimand Yin Manqing; she was just heartbroken for Jiang Jingheng, so her words inevitably came off a bit sharp.

Yin Manqing chuckled lightly, her tone full of self-mockery, ”I know saying anything more now is useless, and I don’t dare to ask for his forgiveness. I just want to know where he is.”

She looked at Mu Yan, ”Can you tell me where he is?”

Mu Yan shook her head, ”I don’t know.”

”No, if there’s anyone in this world who might know his whereabouts, it would definitely be you.” Yin Manqing said with certainty.

”But I have no reason to lie to you,” Mu Yan replied.

”I’m just asking you to think carefully, to consider where he might go.” Yin Manqing explained.

Seeing her anxious expression, Mu Yan nodded, ”I will.”

Yin Manqing seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, saying, ”If Jing Heng did something to upset you, please be more forgiving of him. He may seem mature and stable, but it’s ultimately his first time liking someone.”

”No, he’s done very well,” Mu Yan immediately replied, ”I won’t divorce him.”

With her assurance, Yin Manqing’s worries completely dissipated.

In the past, she always thought Mu Yan matched her son due to her status and position, but now it’s because of who she is as a person.

Just then, Mrs. He came over and asked, ”Young Madam, I’ve made some bird’s nest soup for you. Would you like to have some now?”

Mu Yan touched her stomach; she hadn’t eaten much at Luo Yao’s earlier, and it had only been two hours, but she was already hungry.

She nodded, ”Thank you.”

Yin Manqing casually asked, ”Didn’t you have lunch?”

”No, I did, but I’ve been getting hungry quickly lately,” Mu Yan answered.

”Well, you still need to pay attention to eating properly. Don’t harm your stomach by going hungry,” Yin Manqing advised.

Suddenly, something flashed in her mind, and she looked Mu Yan up and down, her gaze finally resting on her stomach.

She was slimmer than before, with an even flatter belly. It couldn’t be possible.

But eating supplements right after lunch didn’t quite align with Mu Yan’s usual habits.

As if sensing Yin Manqing’s gaze, Mu Yan looked at her and asked, ”What are you looking at?”

”Nothing,” Yin Manqing shook her head.

Although Mu Yan and Jing Heng have been married for over two years, they’re still young, and there’s no hurry about having children. If she asked rashly, it might easily be perceived as her urging them to have a baby.

Just then, Mrs. He brought out the bird’s nest soup, and Mu Yan stopped asking questions, sipping it little by little. Although she found it had a slightly fishy taste, she knew she was too thin and needed the nourishment.

Yin Manqing sat for a while longer and then left. Since Mu Yan wasn’t sleepy, she took out her drawing board to paint.

Noticing the paints by her side, Mrs. He hesitated and said, ”Madam, now that you’re pregnant, it’s better to avoid these chemicals.”

Mu Yan understood her good intentions and smiled, ”Don’t worry, I’ll be careful.”

Seeing her friendly smile, without the slightest air of superiority, Mrs. He’s worries from being caught tattling at noon instantly vanished.

The news of Jiang Jingheng’s succession as the president and chairman had long spread within Shengyuan Group, and even the entire upper society was aware.

However, this didn’t cause much of a stir in the circle, as if it had been expected all along.

Song Cheng’an had just returned from the United States when he heard about this matter and immediately called Jiang Wenhui, but unfortunately couldn’t get through.

When Song Cheng’an arrived, he found the atmosphere in the vice president’s office somewhat bleak, with the secretaries and assistants buried in their work, looking quite suppressed.

He placed the gifts he brought on the counter and asked, ”Where’s your vice president?”
