A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire-Chapter 684 Gentle

Mu Yan held Jiang Jingheng and cried for a long time, crying her heart out.

In countless nights in her dreams, she deeply blamed herself and regretted.

Mom had a hard time raising her, and it was others who accused her of plagiarism. Why did she take it out on the innocent herself?

If she hadn’t made that excessive request, Mom wouldn’t have encountered that fire.

If not for her, Mom could have found a better person to marry and could have a brand new life.

Those people who called her a burden were not wrong at all.

Why wasn’t the person who died her!

Jiang Jingheng held her and comforted her repeatedly, "It’s not your fault."

Mu Yan sobbed in his arms, her voice hoarse.

She didn’t know how long it had been before she cried herself tired and fell asleep again.

If it weren’t for Zhuang Shaoyang’s appearance, he might never have known such a huge ticking time bomb was hidden in her heart.

Jiang Jingheng affectionately stroked her face, feeling both heartache and regret. If he had been strong enough back then, he would have confessed to her and protected her under his wings.

He even regretted going abroad, severing ties with his home country, so that when she was most sad and upset, he couldn’t be by her side to protect her.

Mu Yan slept through yet another night.

She hadn’t rested well for days, and since she was now awake, the burden in Jiang Jingheng’s heart was lifted, allowing him to sleep deeply.

When he woke up, he felt the space beside him empty.

Instantly, all his drowsiness vanished. He sat up and looked around the room, but there was no sign of her anywhere.

A strong sense of unease flooded his heart, and he immediately threw off the covers, got out of bed, and searched the entire second floor inside and out, but couldn’t find her.

Thinking of her state yesterday, his sense of unease grew stronger, and he hurried downstairs.

Just as he descended, he saw Mu Yan entering with a bouquet of flowers.

She was wearing a white dress, and her entire being seemed encircled by a halo of pale light, like a dream.

Jiang Jingheng’s heart trembled. He immediately walked over and reprimanded, "Why didn’t you wake me when you got up?"

"I saw you were sleeping soundly, so I got up by myself." Mu Yan smiled at him faintly.

Jiang Jingheng looked at her dimpled smile and felt a sense of unreality, as if the woman who cried sorrowfully in his arms last night wasn’t her.

He quickly walked over, took the flowers from her hands, and led her to sit in the living room, tossing the flowers onto the coffee table.

Holding her hand, he frowned and said, "Why are your hands so cold? Is there anything uncomfortable?"

"No, I’m quite alright," Mu Yan looked at him, her expression soft.

Jiang Jingheng stared at her for a few seconds and then nodded.

Mu Yan looked at his pajamas and said, "Why don’t you go freshen up first, I’ll arrange the flowers."

"Alright." Jiang Jingheng nodded, getting up to walk upstairs.

At the corner of the second floor, he suddenly looked back towards the living room, where she was trimming the flower stems with scissors and inserting them into a vase.

Suppressing the unease in his heart, he continued upstairs.

When he came down again, the coffee table and dining table were already adorned with fresh flowers. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Mu Yan was standing at the dining table, arranging breakfast.

Seeming to hear his footsteps, she turned back and smiled at him, "Breakfast is ready."

Jiang Jingheng quickly walked over, took her hand, and said, "You don’t have to do these things, just sit and rest."

"Alright." Mu Yan smiled at him and sat down.

Jiang Jingheng looked at her gentle and obedient manner and suddenly bowed his head to kiss her.

Mu Yan didn’t resist, closing her eyes, letting him kiss her.

Jiang Jingheng’s eyes darkened slightly. He pulled away from her and whispered, "Let’s eat."
