A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire

Chapter 1178: The Truth!

Mu Yan looked at the woman in front of her with suspicion and asked, "What do you mean by sending me those photos? If you’re trying to blackmail, shouldn’t you be looking for Lin Jiamu? Do you hope for me to pass on a message?""Of course not." Tang Miao stepped closer, smiled, and said, "I just want to tell you the truth of a fact."

Mu Yan looked at her suspiciously, "What truth?"

Tang Miao whispered, "Do you know why Lin Jiamu approached you? And then secretly helped pay for your brother’s medical bills? You definitely can’t imagine the reason."

Mu Yan’s eyelids twitched, her gaze cautious as she looked at the woman in front of her, "Who are you?"

"I’m a woman who knows Lin Jiamu’s true face, and unfortunately, I’m telling you that you’ve been deceived by him all these years."

"Why should I believe you!" Mu Yan said coldly.

"Your mom’s name is Xi Zhen, right."

Mu Yan’s expression changed slightly as she looked at the woman in front, "Who exactly are you?"

"Like I said, I know all the truths. Lin Jiamu is not a good person; you should be able to see that from the photos. In fact, he dropped out of school in his teens to join the underworld, and followed Long Xiao to become the gangster king of the Upper City."

"Then why are you exposing him in front of me?" Mu Yan retorted.

"It’s simple, I love him, he loves you." Tang Miao straightforwardly said, "Since I can’t have him, I want to destroy him. As long as you know the truth, there’s no way you’ll be with him."

Mu Yan wanted to say this woman was crazy, but she didn’t want to waste her breath, "Are you done talking? If so, I’m leaving."

"Mu Yan, don’t you understand? Your mom was killed by him. Back then, Long Xiao took the blame for him. If you don’t believe it, you can ask him directly."

Mu Yan suddenly turned back, Tang Miao was smiling wickedly at her, then turned around and left.

She wanted to call her back, but felt her words were laughable and couldn’t take them seriously.

Returning to the car, Mu Yan’s mind was filled with Tang Miao’s words: Lin Jiamu was the murderer of her mom? How could it be!

But why did he have such a good relationship with Long Xiao? Why did he also visit that nightclub? Why did he treat her so well when they first met?

And why did he secretly help pay Mu Chen’s medical bills?

When he first started out, he surely didn’t have much money, right? Isn’t he being too generous to them?

The more she thought, the more suspicious Mu Yan felt, as if she had ignored many things all along.

Still, she didn’t want to believe it was true; how could Lin Jiamu do such a thing?

Tonight’s gathering included not only Mu Yan and Lin Jiamu but also Qin Xi.

The three of them hadn’t met in a while, and the place chosen was a private kitchen opened by Lin Jiamu’s friend.

Qin Xi had been doing well recently; compared to their last meeting, she had gained quite a bit of weight, and Lin Jiamu immediately made fun of her extra pounds.

Qin Xi wasn’t one to back down, and retorted directly, "These are happy pounds, understand? Then again, a single guy like you definitely doesn’t get it."

"Ha, I’m just waiting for you to break up with that little kid."

"Lin, can’t you speak properly? If not, shut up."

The two of them bickered endlessly, only then noticing Mu Yan wasn’t saying a word, as if she had something on her mind.

"What’s wrong?" Qin Xi asked.

"Nothing." Mu Yan smiled, "Let’s eat, I’m hungry."

Lin Jiamu and Qin Xi exchanged glances, both thinking Mu Yan was acting strange, but since she didn’t want to talk, they couldn’t pry.

After dinner, they chatted for a while until Ning Ze came to pick up Qin Xi.

Ning Ze wanted to give Mu Yan a ride home, but she refused.

After Qin Xi left, Mu Yan took the initiative to say to Lin Jiamu, "Let’s take a walk together."
