A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire-Chapter 733 Try It!

Looking at his mother’s delighted expression, Ning Shishen wasn’t as optimistic.

First, Mu Yan didn’t even remember their marriage contract, secondly she didn’t want to return to the Zhuang Family, and most importantly, she was already married to Jiang Jingheng.

If he wanted to marry her, the only way was for her to divorce Jiang Jingheng.

At present, this seemed impossible to achieve.

The only way was to let the Zhuang Family intervene, but she wasn’t even willing to acknowledge she was one of them.

What he had been so confident about suddenly fell into a dead end.

"Seems like I need to get in touch with the Zhuang Family and build some ties," Mrs. Zhuang said to herself.

Ning Shishen glanced at his mother; the pressing matter was to get Mu Yan to return to the Zhuang Family.

He had heard that the Jiang Family already knew about Mu Yan’s relationship with Jiang Jingheng. If she didn’t go back to the Zhuang Family, those people wouldn’t agree to her being with Jiang Jingheng without knowing her identity.

Perhaps, this could be a turning point.

Shortly after Mu Yan returned to the flower shop, she received a call from Song Cheng’an, saying the director would arrive at Upper City in the afternoon.

She gave instructions to the shop assistants and then went back to the villa.

Around six in the afternoon, Song Cheng’an came over to pick her up.

The venue was a restaurant in a five-star hotel.

The door to the private room opened, and Mu Yan, following Song Cheng’an, saw three people inside.

Director Wu Huai and his assistant Little Tao, and the other person was Lin Jiamu.

Wu Huai was fifty years old, bald, with a beard, and was very cheerful. He was both an actor and director, with extensive connections in the entertainment industry.

"Director Wu, sorry to keep you waiting." Song Cheng’an walked over to shake hands with Wu Huai.

Wu Huai patted his shoulder, "We just got here too."

His gaze landed on Mu Yan, and he extended his hand towards her, "Miss Mu, hello."

"Director Wu, hello, very pleased to meet you." Mu Yan shook his hand, her face sincere.

She then looked at Lin Jiamu, asking, "What are you doing here?"

"Invited by Director Wu," Lin Jiamu replied honestly.

Wu Huai explained, "I heard that King Lin and Miss Mu are good friends, so I invited him over to help persuade Miss Mu to take the lead role in my drama."

He was so straightforward that it left Mu Yan a bit at a loss.

She smiled, "Director Wu, you’re flattering me. I’m not capable enough for that role."

"Miss Mu hasn’t tried it, how do you know if you’re not suitable?" Wu Huai laughed, "I have a good eye for people."

Mu Yan’s expression slightly changed, wanting to refuse again, but was suddenly interrupted by Song Cheng’an.

"Let’s sit down and talk."

Mu Yan glanced at Song Cheng’an, knowing it would be very rude to refuse like this, and said no more.

They all took their seats, and the food was served.

Halfway through the meal, Wu Huai directly took out the script and handed it to Mu Yan, asking, "Does Miss Mu think there’s something wrong with the script?"

"No, no, the script is excellent," Mu Yan quickly said.

She wasn’t so arrogant to dare question the script.

"Then what is Miss Mu’s reason for refusing?" Wu Huai still wouldn’t give up.

"I really can’t play this role well, I..."

"Miss Mu, a good actor doesn’t back out at the critical moment," Wu Huai interrupted her, "I’ve been friends with Cheng’an for many years, and even he thinks you can play this role well. I trust my vision and his. Is it a matter of remuneration? It’s negotiable."

Even the remuneration could be negotiated, showing Wu Huai’s utmost sincerity.

However, Mu Yan still didn’t want to agree.

"Mu Yan, give it a try," Lin Jiamu, who had been silent all along, suddenly said.
