A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire-Chapter 837: Not Coming Back!
After climbing the mountain in the morning, Zhao Yong, despite his injuries, prepared lunch for everyone.
Everyone knew that after this lunch, Mu Yan and the others would be leaving.
Thus, the lunch felt like a farewell, and the mood became inexplicably heavy.
Zhao Yong, as the big brother of the program, started by thanking everyone for visiting, and then he praised Mu Yan profusely.
"At first glance, you seem like a flower growing in a greenhouse, but upon getting to know you, it’s clear you are knowledgeable, can endure hardships, and have excellent acting skills. Truly impressive."
Mu Yan was slightly flattered and surprised, "Teacher Zhao Yong, you overpraise me. You are the truly impressive one. I loved watching the TV shows you starred in when I was a student."
Everyone immediately teased her about revealing her age, but Zhao Yong wasn’t annoyed, "I hope we have the chance to collaborate in the future; don’t mind if I don’t offer you high pay."
Mu Yan laughed, "How could I mind? If Teacher Zhao Yong invites me to act, I’d do it even without pay."
"Don’t say that; Teacher Zhao Yong would be upset. He’d feel you’re treating him like a beggar, thinking he has no money," Jiang Yun joked lightly.
Zhao Yong also laughed, "Of course. If I had you work without pay, I’d be drowned in your fans’ complaints."
Everyone laughed, and the bit of reluctance in their hearts grew stronger.
Not long after lunch, Mu Yan and the others left by car.
At the airport, Mu Yan parted ways with Jiang Yun and Fan Youyou.
As soon as she returned to Upper City, she headed directly to the hospital to accompany Mu Chen.
Mu Chen, accompanied by Luo Yao, looked in decent condition.
While Mu Chen was asleep, Luo Yao went out and handed her resignation letter to Mu Yan.
Mu Yan looked at her in surprise, "You want to resign?"
"Yes, so I can have more time to accompany Mu Chen," Luo Yao replied.
Mu Yan frowned, "Even so, you don’t have to resign."
"Taking your salary without working makes me look down on myself," Luo Yao laughed, "I like Mu Chen, so I certainly don’t want to take advantage of you."
Mu Yan understood her meaning and didn’t force her.
Actually, she was grateful to Luo Yao. During the days Mu Yan wasn’t around, it was Luo Yao who accompanied Mu Chen.
In the two days she was away, Mu Chen seemed to be in good spirits and often went out for walks.
Seeing her come back, Mu Chen was very happy and ate over half a bowl of extra rice at dinner.
In the evening, Jiang Jingheng wanted to come pick her up, but Mu Yan declined directly.
"I won’t be going back tonight; make sure you eat dinner," she said.
She hung up the phone and smiled at Mu Chen’s hesitant face, "Your brother-in-law isn’t that petty. I’ll stay at the hospital with you during this period."
In another two weeks, she’d be heading out to film and wouldn’t have time to accompany him.
She even considered not filming temporarily to stay with him, but doing so would surely burden him.
In fact, Mu Chen also hoped Mu Yan could stay in the hospital with him; he wasn’t sure how much longer he had.
If there was no more hope, he wished that in his final moments his sister could accompany him for a while longer. Even in death, he wouldn’t forget her.
In Shengyuan Group, the president’s office, Jiang Jingheng maintained the posture of holding the phone for a full five minutes.
The entire office was filled with a sense of oppression, making it hard for anyone to breathe.
Lian Jun looked at his boss’s gloomy expression and couldn’t help but shiver.
I wonder what Young Madam said just now to provoke the young master to this extent. Will their romantic candlelight dinner tonight still happen?
Jiang Jingheng’s fingers, gripping the phone tightly, turned white from exertion, his handsome face tense, and his light brown eyes filled with darkness.
She’s not coming back, huh!
