A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire

Chapter 574: Chapter 574: He is an Illegitimate Child!

Both times they met, Yin Manqing made no effort to hide her disdain and disapproval for Mu Yan.

She even refused to look directly at her, throwing sharp words her way.

Mu Yan’s desire to make an effort waned.

If the conversation continued, an argument was likely to ensue. Regardless, she was Jiang Jingheng’s mother, an elder, and Mu Yan couldn’t be disrespectful.

The atmosphere in the car felt stifling, and Mu Yan felt oppressed.

She broke the silence, ”Mrs. Jiang, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave now.”

As she spoke, she prepared to open the car door.

”Did you understand what I said?” Yin Manqing asked in a cold voice.

Mu Yan looked at her and said solemnly, ”I will not leave Jiang Jingheng.”

She admitted to being timid and cowardly, but if Jiang Jingheng was fearless, how could she retreat!

”How much money do you want?” Yin Manqing’s beautiful face showed some impatience.

Mu Yan frowned, was she trying to buy her off with money?

She said indifferently, ”This has nothing to do with money, please don’t insult your son!”

Yin Manqing let out a light scoff, ”It seems you still want to talk to me about love!”

She looked at Mu Yan, a fierce light appearing in her eyes, ”If you love him, why not fulfill him?”

Mu Yan pressed her lips together, her face gloomy, not understanding what she meant by fulfill.

Seeing her like this, Yin Manqing realized she was completely unaware of Jiang Jingheng’s status within the Jiang Family.

She had to admit, her good son had protected this girl very well, otherwise, how could they have been kept in the dark for so long.

She suddenly said, ”Jing Heng probably never told you he’s an illegitimate child, did he?”

Mu Yan’s eyelids twitched, she glanced at Yin Manqing, her face full of surprise, an illegitimate child?

”You look very surprised. Could it be you’ll regret being with him now?” Yin Manqing said mockingly.

Mu Yan snapped back to her senses, saying indifferently, ”I don’t care about his status.”

Yin Manqing said disdainfully, ”What right do you have to care? Even if he’s an illegitimate child, he’s still far more noble than someone of your low status.”

Mu Yan frowned slightly, considering she’s Jiang Jingheng’s mother, otherwise, she really wanted to retort for a year.

She didn’t want to stay any longer and opened the car door to get out.

From behind, Yin Manqing’s voice floated over, ”The Jiang Family has more children than just Jing Heng. As an illegitimate child, if he wants to solidify his status, he must marry a strong family girl. His grandfather is already dissatisfied with his status; once he knows he’s with a girl like you, do you think he can still inherit the family business?”

Mu Yan paused in her steps; if she kept holding back, she’d become a turtle hiding in its shell.

She turned back to look at Yin Manqing, asking back, ”So it’s all my fault?”

Yin Manqing’s gaze darkened, she said coldly, ”If not? Is it my fault?!”

”Oh yes, that’s exactly what I think.” Mu Yan replied with an innocent and mischievous face.

Yin Manqing laughed coldly, ”Twisting words, I really have no idea what he sees in you.”

”What he sees in me is not something I need to tell you, but...” Mu Yan’s lips curled in a sarcastic smile, ”You keep saying Jiang Jingheng’s status is awkward and being with me will harm him, but why don’t you think about who caused his awkward status in the first place.”

Yin Manqing’s expression changed drastically, she shouted angrily, ”Who allows you to speak to me like this!”

Mu Yan let out a soft snort and slammed the door with a ”bang” and walked forward.

Reasoning with a selfish person is a waste of words.

In the car, Yin Manqing’s chest heaved with anger, that little girl dared to be so rude to her, with her around, she would never let her enter the Jiang Family’s gate alive.

The driver sat in the car and asked respectfully, ”Madam, do you want to force her to obey?”

Yin Manqing calmed down and said, ”No need, our third young master’s wings have hardened; if he protects her, I can’t do anything to her.”

”Then what to do, we can’t just...”

Yin Manqing let out a light scoff, ”I can’t force her to leave him, but what if she wants to leave herself?”
