Chapter 108: Protect Her
CHAPTER 108: CHAPTER 108: PROTECT HER
As Song Cheng'an left, Jiang Jingheng picked up the documents and looked at them, frowning, "There's too much work."
"It's alright, aren't all artists like this?" Mu Yan was unconcerned.
Jiang Jingheng glanced at her, "You don't have to work so hard."
"I have to support my family, so I must work hard." Mu Yan said seriously. Jiang Jingheng's lips curled slightly, "Does Mrs. Jiang want to support me?"
Mu Yan's expression changed slightly, and she quickly said, "No, I was talking about my brother."
Jiang Jingheng squinted his eyes, looking dangerous, "What about me?"
Mu Yan whispered, "It's not like you're broke."
"But I just want Mrs. Jiang to support me." Jiang Jingheng raised an eyebrow. "You'd be okay with porridge every day?" Mu Yan said deliberately.
"Of course, if we're having porridge, I'd definitely leave the rice for you to eat." Jiang Jingheng chuckled lightly.
Mu Yan looked into his light brown eyes, feeling awkward, is he serious?
If he really wanted her to support him like this, she might be willing...
Supporting a handsome guy is pleasing to the eyes.
As soon as this thought came out, Mu Yan felt bad about it, no, she couldn't be swayed by that face.
After breakfast, Mu Yan received a call from Lin Jiamu, inviting her out for lunch, and Qin Xi would be there too.
Mu Yan went back to her room, read the script for a while, then changed clothes, applied light makeup, and left the room with her bag.
As she went downstairs, she saw no one in the living room, not knowing if Jiang Jingheng had gone out or was in his room.
She hesitated, wondering if she should inform him.
She took out her phone, preparing to make a call.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind, "You're going out?"
Mu Yan was startled, nearly dropping her phone.
She looked up to see him standing at the top of the stairs. She patted her chest and glared at him, "You scared me to death, can't you walk with some noise?"
Jiang Jingheng's handsome face showed no trace of guilt as he came down with a stern look and asked, "Where to?"
"Meeting some friends for lunch."
"Who?"
Mu Yan gave him a peculiar look, "You don't know my friends, why ask so many questions?"
Actually, what she wanted to say was, is it necessary for her to report to him who she's meeting?
Just like how he wouldn't report who he meets to her.
Jiang Jingheng looked at her, his handsome face tense, light brown eyes glimmering with dark light.
"Is it a man?"
Mu Yan nodded, "Yeah, and a woman."
When she said the latter sentence, her expression turned serious.
Jiang Jingheng's expression eased somewhat, "Then go early and come back early, if you're late, I might have to come find you myself."
Mu Yan knew he was joking with that last sentence, but she still assured him, "If nothing unexpected happens, I'll be back this afternoon."
She glanced at the time on her phone and said, "It's getting late, I'm heading out. You take care of your own lunch."
Suddenly, she remembered something, "That pot's broken, and Yu Ma's not here, what will you eat for lunch? Why not order takeout?"
"I won't." Jiang Jingheng said with his hands in his pockets, looking indifferent.
Mu Yan paused, then understood. Someone like him probably never orders takeout.
She laughed, "How about I order something before I leave?"
She opened the takeout app and asked, "What do you want to eat?"
"I'm not hungry now."
Mu Yan looked at him, frowning slightly, "Then what to do?"
"I'll call you when I'm hungry, then you can order for me."
Jiang Jingheng said, then hesitated, "But wouldn't that trouble you?"
Mu Yan thought this was a workable solution and smiled, "It's no trouble at all,
just call me when you're hungry. I'm off."
"You don't need me to drive you?" Jiang Jingheng asked.
"No need, having you as my driver would spoil me too much" Mu Yan
half-joked, heading to the door.
Jiang Jingheng stood behind her, watching her leave, his handsome face clouding over in an instant.
It's rare to have a weekend with her.
He immediately dialed a number and instructed, "Ensure the Young Madam's
safety,"
