A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire

Chapter 483: Do You Take Me for a Saint?

At the Zhao Family Mansion, Mrs. Zhao was watering the flowers when she saw the servant bringing in Lan Xi, who was holding a few boxes of gifts.She put down the watering can, went up to greet her with a smile, and said, "Xiao Xi, what brings you to Auntie’s house today?"

The Lan Family and the Zhao Family were long-time family friends. Mrs. Zhao and Lan Xi had a great relationship, and the families often interacted with each other.

"Hello, Auntie. I’ve been wanting to visit you for a while, but I’ve been busy with work recently. I hope you understand," Lan Xi said politely.

She presented the gifts, "These are some nutritional supplements for you."

She was wearing a shirt paired with jeans and a pair of white sneakers, looking like a student, well-behaved and sensible.

"I’m just happy you came to see Auntie. No need for gifts," Mrs. Zhao said with a smile.

She called toward the kitchen, "Mrs. He, please bring some tea for Miss Lan."

"No need, Auntie. I’ll be leaving soon," Lan Xi quickly said.

She glanced around and asked, "Where’s Sister Xiyue?"

"Oh, your Sister Xiyue is upstairs. I’ll get someone to call her down," Mrs. Zhao said with a smile.

"No need, I’ll go up and see Sister Xiyue myself," Lan Xi replied.

"Alright, I’ll take you up," Mrs. Zhao said as she headed toward the stairs.

On the second floor, Zhao Xiyue was in her room reading a script.

Hearing a knock on the door, she immediately went to open it.

Seeing Lan Xi, she was a bit surprised.

Although the families were close, Lan Xi didn’t like playing with them since she was a child and instead got along well with Lu Hao and their gang.

Mrs. Zhao said, "Xiyue, Xiao Xi is here to visit you. You two can chat upstairs, and I’ll have someone bring up tea and snacks."

Zhao Xiyue nodded toward Lan Xi, "Xiao Xi, come in."

"Okay." Lan Xi followed her in.

Mrs. Zhao closed the door and went downstairs.

Lan Xi looked at Zhao Xiyue’s forehead; the bandage was already removed, and the wound had scabbed over.

She asked, "Sister Xiyue, is your wound getting better?"

"Almost healed. Have a seat," Zhao Xiyue invited Lan Xi to sit down.

Lan Xi said calmly, "No need. I just came over today to tell you something."

"Hmm?" Zhao Xiyue looked at her.

Lan Xi frowned slightly, "Brother Jiang married Mu Yan a year ago. Back then, you and Brother Jiang didn’t have an engagement yet, so she wasn’t a third party between you."

Zhao Xiyue’s face instantly turned unpleasant. So, she came to defend Mu Yan and lecture her.

What a surprise that Mu Yan could win over a spoiled lady like Lan Xi. Truly remarkable.

She sneered, "So what if she’s not the third party? I’ve loved Jiang Jingheng for ten years. She suddenly came out of nowhere and took him away, ruining my engagement with him, destroying my love. Am I supposed to graciously bless them? Do you take me for a saint?"

Lan Xi’s expression darkened slightly, "Feelings are a matter of both parties. Even without her, Brother Jiang wouldn’t have liked you. If you’re really angry, direct it at Brother Jiang. He’s the one who doesn’t like you. What does bullying Mu Yan accomplish?"

The more Zhao Xiyue listened, the more amused she felt, "Me bullying her? She’s the one bullying me, alright? Soon, the whole high society will know that I got dumped by Jiang Jingheng, and our Zhao Family will become everyone’s laughingstock!"

Lan Xi looked displeased, "So you found someone to slander Mu Yan online, calling her a scheming bitch who broke you and Brother Jiang apart?"

Zhao Xiyue furrowed her brows slightly and said coldly, "What nonsense are you talking? When did I ever find someone to slander her?"
