A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire-Chapter 731: Slap in the Face!

Jiang Jingheng’s first love?

Mu Yan paused in her movement of drinking water, looking up at Ning Shishen, somewhat puzzled as to why he suddenly brought this up.

Ning Shishen assumed she didn’t know and was presently surprised.

He cleared his throat slightly and said, "I don’t mean anything else, just afraid you’ll be upset with him over this matter."

After all, in any marriage, no one likes the presence of a third party.

She is pure and innocent, incapable of tolerating any speck of sand in her eyes, so...

"I’m not upset." Mu Yan’s voice suddenly broke the silence.

Ning Shishen looked deeply at her, observing the expression on her face.

Her bewilderment was fleeting, and her demeanor remained calm and serene.

Ning Shishen was somewhat surprised, "You..."

Mu Yan set down her glass, looking at him with a smile, "He didn’t have a first love."

Ning Shishen’s brow furrowed slightly, didn’t have? Could Ning Ze have been mistaken?

Suddenly, he noticed the bashfulness and shyness on her face.

She covered her mouth and said, "If you really must say there is one, then it’s me."

This time, Ning Shishen was completely stunned, her?

He exclaimed in shock, "You knew each other before?"

Mu Yan shook her head, "No, I didn’t know him before, but he knew me."

Feeling she hadn’t expressed herself clearly, she cleared her throat lightly, "He had a crush on me."

Even now, it was still somewhat unbelievable to her, but this was indeed the truth.

Ning Shishen saw her sweet expression and finally realized he might have made a fool of himself.

He had originally intended to use this to create a rift between her and Jiang Jingheng, but instead... it backfired on him.

He said calmly, "I’m really surprised, I didn’t expect Jing Heng to have this side to him."

"Yeah, I didn’t expect it either." Mu Yan laughed.

But this also explained why he was so good to her. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Ning Shishen could only feel his heart turning cold, his long-laid plans falling apart before he even began, she blocked him.

He picked up his glass, took a sip of water, composed his emotions, and suddenly asked, "I received a call from Zhuang Yi a couple of days ago."

Mu Yan’s expression changed slightly, looking at Ning Shishen, "You know him?"

"The Ning Family and the Zhuang Family have had ties for generations." Ning Shishen replied, not missing any change in her expression.

Mu Yan nodded, not saying more.

The upper social circles were that small, and there would inevitably be some connections.

Seeing her indifferent expression, averse to discussing more, Ning Shishen felt a sense of crisis welling up inside him.

She seemed truly unconcerned about the Zhuang Family’s affairs and even unwilling to talk more.

It appeared what Zhuang Yi said wasn’t wrong, she did not intend to return to the Zhuang Family.

He laughed, "I thought I had the wrong person before, but it turned out to really be you."

"Hmm?" Mu Yan looked at him blankly, "Did we know each other before?"

Ning Shishen’s face was slightly stiff, she truly didn’t remember.

After a while, he answered, "We played together as children."

"Oh." Mu Yan replied indifferently, seeming not the least bit interested.

Ning Shishen was originally planning to say she was his fiancée, but seeing her attitude, if he said it, she would probably reject him immediately.

He picked up his glass again, drank the water in one gulp, unable to quell the frustration in his heart.

"Your cousin asked me to persuade you to return to the Zhuang Family." He said.

Mu Yan frowned slightly, "I won’t go back."

"But that’s your family."

"I don’t acknowledge it." Mu Yan said in a solemn voice.

Ning Shishen wanted to persuade further, but seeing the coldness on her face, he stopped.

He ate the meal tastelessly, while Mu Yan had nothing more to say, paying the bill first and then taking a taxi back to the flower shop.

Ning Shishen watched her figure as she left, feeling increasingly unable to grasp her.

Just as he was about to drive back, he suddenly received a call from home.
