A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire-Chapter 768: His Grandfather Might Beat Him to Death!

Zheng Lu Hua observed Mu Yan’s calm demeanor and guessed that Brother Jiang hadn’t told Mu Yan about Lan Xi and Lu Hao.

She pondered for a moment and said, "Lan Xi’s absence today is indeed related to Brother Lu."

"What happened, did he bully Lan Xi?" Mu Yan frowned, his expression full of displeasure.

"It’s not really bullying; it’s just that Brother Lu refused to marry into the Lan Family."

Mu Yan suddenly understood. No wonder Lan Xi didn’t come. Being rejected by the man she loved, she was probably hiding somewhere crying and didn’t dare face him.

She calmly said, "That’s good."

In her opinion, Lu Hao was simply not good enough for Lan Xi. Lu Hao knowing his limits was a good thing, and it spared Lan Xi from getting hurt.

Zheng Lu Hua looked at her, slightly surprised, "Sister-in-law, don’t you hope for them to be together?"

Mu Yan didn’t answer but instead asked, "Do you think they’re suitable for each other?"

Zheng Lu Hua pondered for a moment and said, "If she could marry Brother Lu Hao, Lan Xi would surely be very happy."

"But does Lu Hao like Lan Xi?" Mu Yan asked again.

Zheng Lu Hua was stunned for a moment and shook her head, "Probably not, otherwise he wouldn’t have refused the marriage."

"So can a marriage without love be happy?"

Zheng Lu Hua suddenly understood, yes.

She suddenly looked at Mu Yan. The woman’s delicate face had skin as smooth as porcelain, with a faint blush, looking extremely lovely.

She remembered someone saying that a woman’s best beauty accessory is a man’s love and affection.

Noticing Zheng Lu Hua’s intense gaze on her face, Mu Yan subconsciously touched her face and asked, "Is there something on my face?"

Zheng Lu Hua quickly shook her head, "No."

She paused for a moment, looking envious, "You’re the happiest person I’ve seen after getting married." 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

In their circle, political marriages were common, most men maintained stability at home but had affairs outside.

Among the brothers from well-connected families she was close to, most had more than one woman around them, but Brother Jiang was different.

As an observer, she had seen how much Brother Jiang cared for Mu Yan.

He could give up everything for Mu Yan, even his long-time friends.

Happy? Mu Yan couldn’t help but smile. She was indeed quite happy.

Of course, if a certain person hadn’t shown up, she’d be even happier.

She suddenly turned her head and met Zhuang Yi’s gaze.

Zhuang Yi paused for a moment, then gave her an embarrassed smile, looking like he’d been caught red-handed.

Everyone around them was teasing Lu Hao to vent Lan Xi’s anger, but his mind was all on Mu Yan, sneaking glances at her countless times throughout the evening.

Seeing her face, he could only think of how delicate and adorable she was as a child, feeling both nostalgic and tender.

This time he came with his grandfather’s orders; no matter what, she had to go back home with him.

Zheng Lu Hua also noticed Zhuang Yi constantly staring at Mu Yan and asked, "Sister-in-law, what’s going on with you and Brother Yi?"

Ever since Brother Zhuang first met Mu Yan, she noticed he paid special attention to her, and tonight his eyes seemed glued to Mu Yan.

Mu Yan saw her worried look and laughed, "You don’t think he has feelings for me, do you?"

Having her thoughts exposed by Mu Yan, Zheng Lu Hua felt instant awkwardness and quickly said, "That’s not what I meant."

"Don’t worry, it’s not what you think," Mu Yan winked at her. "Otherwise, his grandfather might beat him to death!"

Zheng Lu Hua looked at her, completely dumbfounded, wondering if she was serious.

Meanwhile, Zhuang Yi suddenly shivered, as if the air conditioning was set too low. So cold!
