A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire

Chapter 339: Delivering Water!

After the meal, everyone was still engrossed in conversation, but unfortunately, it was getting late.Xiang Lanqiu drove over, and once they left the restaurant, everyone went their separate ways.

On the way, Mu Yan asked Song Cheng’an, "I heard from Senior Sister that she hasn’t signed with a management company yet. Why don’t you take the opportunity to sign her?"

Song Cheng’an smiled, "She’s a major film star now. Any company would go out of their way to promote her. There’s no need for her to come to mine."

Mu Yan frowned but felt that Xiang Lanqiu should want to come back.

She thought for a moment and asked, "Brother Song, there must be more reasons for rejecting her, right?"

Song Cheng’an nodded, "Yeah, if I hadn’t promised Jing Heng to bring you, I wouldn’t have returned to the entertainment industry."

Mu Yan understood what he meant. He’s just here for fun and ready to retreat at any time.

She wanted to ask if Xiang Lanqiu liked him but thought it was their private matter, so she didn’t.

After returning to the hotel, Mu Yan immediately called Jiang Jingheng.

They usually spent at least half an hour talking on the phone every evening.

She told him about meeting with Xiang Lanqiu today and shared some interesting stories from the shoot.

Just then, Qin Xi called her, so she hung up the phone.

Jiang Family Mansion, study room.

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Jingheng picked up another phone and returned the missed call, "What’s up?"

The room was very quiet, and Lian Jun’s voice came through the phone.

"I’ve found out where Xu Youxi’s assistant is."

Jiang Jingheng leaned back in his chair, a cold light flashed in his light brown eyes, "Don’t let her get away."

He hung up the phone, his eyes darkening; it was another case of fleeing the country.

The last time the Guo Family fled abroad, there was still no news of them.

Xu Youxi’s assistant had disappeared even before Xu Youxi got into trouble, as if anticipating that Jiang Jingheng would send someone after her.

Even Lian Jun discovered that this assistant had advised Xu Youxi.

Now that Xu Youxi had been punished, the assistant naturally couldn’t escape.

But with the current developments, the matter wasn’t that simple. Perhaps there’s someone behind this assistant.

Could it be that the same person was behind these two incidents?

If so, who could it be?

Jiang Jingheng suddenly stood up. The opponent was in the dark, and he was in the light. Could Mu Yan be in danger?

A wave of unease rose in his heart.

Perhaps the greatest threat never came from Xu Youxi or He Jianzhou but from the person pulling the strings behind the scenes.

He immediately called Mu Yan, wanting to warn her to be careful, but she was still on another call.

Suddenly, he calmed down and hung up the phone.

It’s better not to let her know about this, to avoid adding to her worries.

Now, he had to wait for the results.

In a small motel, a girl sat on the bed with a face mask on, scrolling through Weibo on her phone, feeling quite at ease.

Du Jiao had been staying here for several days, just waiting for the paperwork to go through for her to go abroad.

That evening, she received a call notifying her that she could leave the country the next day.

She originally thought Mu Yan was just an ordinary celebrity but didn’t expect her backing to be significant, even Xu Youxi and the Changfeng Group couldn’t contend.

If those people found her, the outcome would be worse than Xu Youxi’s.

But as long as she left the country, she could live without worries.

Before long, she heard a knock on the door.

She peeled off the face mask and looked toward the door, doubting her own ears.

Soon, the knocking came again.

Du Jiao hesitated and asked, "Who is it?"

"Miss Du, the water heater is out of water, I’m here to deliver some hot water," a male voice sounded.
