Chapter 1417: Chapter 1417: Persuasion

After finishing the phone call with Mu Yan, Kong Lizhen came over to the villa to pick her up, and Kong Yanzi came along too.

He had returned to Italy some time ago and had just arrived last night.

Mu Yan came downstairs to greet her, and upon seeing Kong Lizhen, she called out, "Godmother!"

Kong Lizhen noticed Mu Yan’s eyes were red and knew she had been crying.

She rushed over to embrace her, feeling utterly heartbroken.

"Yanyan, don’t be afraid, Mom is here to stand up for you. Let’s see what kind of tricks Jiang Jingheng can pull."

Receiving this sudden warm hug, Mu Yan couldn’t control her emotions anymore, and tears streamed down.

She didn’t want to say anything, she just wanted to cry, to vent her emotions.

She didn’t even notice the difference in how Kong Lizhen referred to herself.

Seeing Mu Yan cry so sadly, Kong Yanzi furrowed his brows, wishing he could give Jiang Jingheng a good beating.

No matter they are just classmates, if he makes his little aunt sad, even the closest relationship is useless, not to mention he’s always had a dislike for Jiang Jingheng.

In a deep voice, he said, "Don’t worry, little aunt. With our Kong family here, no one can bully you."

Kong Lizhen also chimed in, "Ah Yan is right, don’t be afraid. At worst, leave Jiang Jingheng, and we won’t suffer that wrong."

Mu Yan said nothing, just cried in Kong Lizhen’s arms.

Right now, Kong Lizhen really wanted to peel Jiang Jingheng’s skin off. To think that she once believed he was a good kid who could bring her precious girl happiness, who would have thought he’d turn around and hook up with another woman?

"Sweetheart, Mom is here, don’t be sad, it’s nothing major, just a man."

Who knows how long it took, but Mu Yan finally tired herself out from crying.

She sat on the sofa, choking and catching her breath.

Lately, she hadn’t been feeling well, always a bit listless, and after crying like this, she felt even more drained.

Kong Lizhen suggested, "Come on, go stay with your godmother and live with me."

Mu Yan replied hoarsely, "I’d better not disturb you, godmother."

Kong Lizhen could see that her heart was not yet free of Jiang Jingheng, her brows slightly furrowed, wondering what kind of spell Jiang Jingheng had cast on her daughter to mesmerize her this way.

But she couldn’t say anything harsh to her, so she coaxed, "Godmother is going back to the country in a few days, and once I go back, it’ll be hard to come back again. It’ll be difficult to see you then, so come keep godmother company."

Kong Yanzi, standing to the side, also urged, "Yes, nanny godmother is right, little aunt, you should go keep godmother company, otherwise, it’ll be a regret for you two to be separated.".

Mu Yan couldn’t bear the pain of separation; she finally had a godmother, she couldn’t bear to let her go.

But she also knew that godmother had her own life and couldn’t always be by her side.

She nodded, "Okay."

Seeing her relent, Kong Lizhen felt relieved and signaled to Kong Yanzi to go and prepare.

Mu Yan went back to her room, randomly packed a couple of clothes, and left.

As she walked out of the room, she couldn’t help but glance back at the bedroom, where they had so many tender and affectionate memories. But now, thinking about it brought more irony.

She didn’t want to doubt him, nor did she want to argue with him. Perhaps separating was the best way to calm down and reflect on their relationship properly.

By the time she returned, hopefully everything would be clear.

In the evening, Jiang Jingheng returned home and immediately felt the house was extremely cold and quiet.

Yu Ma stepped forward, preparing to speak, but Jiang Jingheng raised his hand to stop her.

He went straight upstairs. The bedroom was completely dark. He turned on the light, but there was no sign of her.
