A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire-Chapter 796 Retort!

The old man couldn’t bear to lose his temper with his granddaughter, but that didn’t mean he had the same patience for the others in the house.

Zhuang Shaoyang instinctively glanced at Zhuang Chujiao but remained silent.

Jiaojiao had already upset the old man and the old lady last time. If they found out that Nuannuan left because of her, it would be disastrous.

Ruan Xinyu wasn’t there, but she saw the group enter, so she roughly understood why Mu Yan suddenly wanted to leave.

She looked at Zhuang Chujiao and smiled, "Jiaojiao, you’re back."

"Hmm." Zhuang Chujiao nodded, her expression somewhat unnatural.

Last time, she had argued with her grandmother in front of her aunt, swearing she’d never return to this house. She always felt mocked for going back on her word.

The old man glanced at Zhuang Chujiao, frowning slightly, "Still know how to come back?"

Zhuang Chujiao shrank her neck, lowered her head, and dared not speak.

Seeing this, Liang Rong gave her a push to step forward and said, "Jiaojiao, hurry up and apologize to your grandparents."

Mrs. Zhuang sat on the sofa, expressionless, "How dare I let her apologize to me!"

Liang Rong’s expression changed slightly, quickly saying, "Mom, Jiaojiao knows she was wrong, please forgive her this time."

"Knows she was wrong?" Mrs. Zhuang glanced at Liang Rong, "If she knew she was wrong, how come Nuannuan left as soon as she returned?"

"No, Mom, you misunderstood, and besides, Nuannuan just said she left because she had work," Liang Rong argued.

Mrs. Zhuang sneered, "You think I’m senile? Before Jiaojiao returned, Nuannuan was having fun. Why did she leave as soon as Jiaojiao came back?"

Cold sweat dripped from Liang Rong’s forehead as she explained, "Mom, Jiaojiao didn’t drive Nuannuan away. If you don’t believe me, ask Shao Yang!"

Zhuang Shaoyang forced a response, "Mom, you truly misunderstood."

Zhuang Zeyang and his wife both looked at Zhuang Shaoyang, frowning. With all the commotion in the garden just now, anyone could tell what happened.

It’s lucky that Nuannuan is not close to him; otherwise, his heart would be biased.

Mrs. Zhuang got angry at her second son, "Shut up! Are you still defending her? Is Nuannuan not your biological child?"

Zhuang Shaoyang’s face turned stiff as he recalled his daughter’s attitude towards him, feeling despondent.

Seeing her grandmother solely blaming her, Zhuang Chujiao became unhappy, "Grandma, I know you’ve never liked me, and now that your beloved granddaughter Nuannuan has returned, you dislike me even more."

Mrs. Zhuang, infuriated, gave her son a stern look, "Is this the good daughter you raised? She hasn’t learned anything else but how to talk back."

Zhuang Shaoyang lowered his head, full of shame.

"It’s my failure to teach Jiaojiao properly."

Zhuang Jiaoyang couldn’t stand it any longer and said, "Mom, that’s enough. Jiaojiao has been raised by you for over ten years. Is she not as good as the one raised for just a few years?"

This was also what Zhuang Chujiao felt, and hearing it from her aunt only made her feel more wronged.

Mrs. Zhuang glared at her daughter, this clueless wretch.

Just then, a servant came in and said, "Sir, Madam, the security is here."

Zhuang Zeyang glanced at the servant and asked, "What’s security here for? Never mind, let him in."

Upon hearing this, Liang Rong looked at Zhuang Chujiao and found her daughter’s face as pale as paper.

A bad premonition arose in her heart, and she quickly looked towards the door.

The security guard came in and stated honestly, "I just received a call from Miss Zhuang saying someone was forcibly entering the Zhuang Family, so I came to take the person away."
