A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire

Chapter 780: Chapter 780 I Am Not Zhuang Xiangnuan

Zhuang Jiaoyang was stunned for a moment, not expecting Mu Yan to respond to her words.

Her face suddenly darkened, ”What do you mean by that?”

”The literal meaning.” Mu Yan said indifferently.

Jiang Jingheng watched her displeased expression, a faint smile curling at his lips.

She was like a protective she-wolf; whoever dared bully her people, she’d bite, regardless of who the other person was.

All those days of worry seemed to dissipate a bit.

Family or not, she still held a special place for him.

Zhuang Jiaoyang’s face turned livid with anger, ”Is this how you talk to your elders? Have no manners!”

These words once again stepped on Mu Yan’s tail; Zhuang Jiaoyang’s sarcasm not only targeted her, but also her mom.

The affection she had felt initially was completely gone at this moment.

If they looked down on her so much, why did they want her back? To let her be humiliated by them?

Sorry, she’s not asking to be hurt!

Her face turned cold, her eyes like icy blades, her tone resolute, ”Since we’re so unwelcome here, then...”

”Bang!” A loud noise interrupted Mu Yan’s words.

Zhuang Jiaoyang held her face, looking at the man in front of her in disbelief, ”You hit me?”

”Who were you just calling mannerless?” Zhuang Zeyang said coldly, his handsome face filled with rage, his eyes teeming with murderous intent.

Zhuang Jiaoyang rarely saw him like this; she was horrified inside, even struggling to speak.

”I, I...”

At home, the person she feared most was her father, followed by this elder brother who was a high-ranking official.

But that didn’t mean she wasn’t angry; unable to deal with him, she could only turn to her father and mother for help, ”Dad, Mom, aren’t you going to do something about brother? He actually hit me.”

Ruan Xinyu stared at her husband, her eyes filled with shock; she hadn’t seen him this angry in a long time.

She understood the nature of her own sister-in-law, and her husband knew even better.

She glanced at Mu Yan, perhaps he wanted to hold on to this child.

Old Mrs. Zhuang looked at her daughter’s unrepentant behavior, feeling a nameless fire in her heart; someone over forty still doesn’t know the gravity and can’t control her mouth.

She felt quite a bit like hating iron for not becoming steel, coldly saying, ”I think your brother hit well. Is ’mannerless’ something you can say? She’s mannerless, so are you? So is your brother? You’ve insulted the whole family with just one sentence, have we wronged you?”

”Mom, that’s not what I mean!” Zhuang Jiaoyang said hurriedly, ”She didn’t grow up in the family...”

”Enough, Zhuang Jiaoyang, it’s us who spoiled you, making you narrow-minded and lacking the slightest bit of kindness.” Zhuang Shaoyang stepped up, glaring angrily at his sister, ”Even if Nuannuan didn’t grow up by my side, her mom would have taught her how to conduct herself; after all, her mom is also considered a daughter of the Zhuang Family.”

Zhuang Jiaoyang, scolded by both brothers and mother, felt utterly disgraced inside.

Being hit and reprimanded in front of so many people, did her dignity count for nothing?

Liang Rong stepped forward to advise, ”Jiaoyang didn’t mean it.”

She looked at Mu Yan and said, ”Nuannuan, you wouldn’t mind your aunt’s actions, right?”

Mrs. Zhuang and the others all looked at Mu Yan, fearing she might dislike this family because of Zhuang Jiaoyang.

Zhuang Yi wished he could seal Zhuang Jiaoyang’s mouth right now; all the unpleasant words were spoken by her.

Originally, grandma wanted the family to reunite, calling her over, but didn’t expect she’d cause trouble just by showing up.

He looked at Mu Yan and Jiang Jingheng and said, ”Nuannuan, Jing Heng, aunt didn’t mean it, don’t take it to heart.”

Mu Yan’s expression was indifferent, ”I think you might have misunderstood. I’m not Zhuang Xiangnuan.”
