A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire-Chapter 774: Box Office Exploded!
It’s a pity that Mu Yan was very determined to go back early tomorrow morning. Zhuang Yi had no choice, so he simply stayed at the hotel with them.
Otherwise, if he goes back without accomplishing anything, his grandfather might punish him. When Nuannuan gets home tomorrow, he will probably be so happy that he’ll forget about it.
The hotel room had already been booked. Once inside, Mu Yan sat on the sofa, staring at her phone.
Jiang Jingheng walked over and asked, "What are you looking at?"
"Looking to see where there’s a mall so we can buy some things."
"What are we lacking?" Jiang Jingheng asked.
"We can’t go empty-handed tomorrow, can we?" Mu Yan replied.
Jiang Jingheng asked, "Is that why you didn’t visit the Zhuang Family today?"
"Yeah."
Besides, she had rushed over, looking disheveled, which wasn’t appropriate for paying respects to the elders.
Jiang Jingheng suddenly grabbed the phone from her hand and said, "Don’t worry, I’ve got everything prepared."
"Hmm?" Mu Yan looked at him in surprise.
"After your uncle visited the Jiang Family last time, I had everything prepared," Jiang Jingheng replied.
Seeing how calm he looked, the tension Mu Yan felt dissipated by half. She asked, "What should we do this afternoon then?"
"Let’s rest for a bit first. I’ll take you out for dinner tonight."
Mu Yan wrapped her arm around his and said, "Sounds good. I’ve been to Beijing twice before, but it’s always been for movie promotions. I never got to really enjoy it or try the good food."
"Then we’ll have a great time here in Beijing these few days and eat to our heart’s content."
"You’re the best, hubby." Mu Yan’s lips curled up into a smile.
With him around, she could temporarily forget about the Zhuang Family.
Meanwhile, Zhuang Yi called the Zhuang Family to tell them that Mu Yan would be staying at a hotel tonight and coming home tomorrow because she was too tired from the flight.
Mr. Zhuang scolded him thoroughly, saying they were already in Beijing, so why stay at a hotel? Was there no place to stay at home?
Zhuang Yi didn’t dare mention that Mu Yan had brought a grandson-in-law back for Mr. Zhuang, so he just endured the scolding.
In the evening, Zhuang Yi took Mu Yan and Jiang Jingheng to have the renowned Beijing roast duck.
The taste was mediocre, and Mu Yan didn’t eat much.
The two men chatted intermittently, while Mu Yan picked up her phone to check film reviews.
"Lone Eagle" had been released for a day, and she didn’t yet know how the box office was doing.
When she opened the Meituan App and saw the 9.7 rating, she didn’t register it at first.
Scrolling down, she saw that as of 7 o’clock, the box office had reached 240 million.
She suddenly looked at Jiang Jingheng and said out of the blue, "Pinch me."
Jiang Jingheng looked at her and asked, "What’s wrong?"
"Am I dreaming?" She handed the phone to Jiang Jingheng, "Look at the box office."
Jiang Jingheng glanced at it and said, "240 million, ’Lone Eagle’s box office, I just saw it."
"So I’m not dreaming!" Mu Yan said, full of excitement.
Seeing her joyous expression, Jiang Jingheng couldn’t help but pinch her cheek, "Of course not, our Yanyan is the best."
Mu Yan felt a bit shy from his praise and lowered her head to continue reading the reviews.
Zhuang Yi gave Jiang Jingheng a cold gaze, thinking you’ll only get to take advantage of my sister now, huh!
Mu Yan continued reading the reviews, and they were mostly positive.
"Leng Hao’s performance was as excellent as always. His portrayal of Zhao Feng revealed the spirit of a warrior. I predict this will be the best movie of the year."
"This movie ticket was worth it. The oath-taking scene moved me to tears. No matter how much hardship life gives me, I still love my country."
"From her debut, Mu Yan’s acting has never disappointed. When Dai Qing appeared on screen, I was amazed."
