A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire

Chapter 1304: Chapter 1304: Protest

In the afternoon, Mu Yan was at the hospital with Mu Chen when she received a WeChat message from Zhuang Yi.

"Nuannuan, Grandpa has a cruel heart, I’m barely hanging on, [crying heavily]"

Mu Yan glanced at it and immediately replied, "What’s going on?"

Zhuang Yi only sent crying emojis without answering.

Having no other choice, Mu Yan called Ruan Xinyu and learned that the old man had beaten him up for causing trouble at the Jiang Family and disrespecting elders.

"It’s nothing, your brother has thick skin; a beating is good for his health," Ruan Xinyu said indifferently.

Immediately, Zhuang Yi’s voice protested from the other end of the call, "Mom, am I really your son?"

"If only you weren’t my son, then I could have a daughter and wouldn’t be worrying every day about you getting married."

Zhuang Yi, "..."

Whenever the topic of marriage came up, Zhuang Yi fell silent. Ruan Xinyu scolded her son but didn’t forget to comfort her niece.

"Your grandpa didn’t beat Zhuang Yi because he did something wrong, but to show the Jiang Family patriarch. Don’t take it to heart."

Mu Yan didn’t care about these things, but she had no right to interfere with the ways of the older generation.

"I understand."

With Zhuang Yi stepping forward, rumors about a lover were instantly dispelled, and Mu Yan was cloaked in a veil of mystery.

Netizens speculated about her identity, and many almost concluded she came from a military and political family, though no evidence was provided.

As a result, those media outlets intending to profit off her traffic had to reconsider; with the backing of the Shangcheng Jiang Family and the military, can such a person be offended?

For a time, various marketing accounts began praising Mu Yan wholeheartedly, digging up all her works from her debut until now, from newcomer to movie queen, and showering her with countless accolades.

Yet netizens remarkably didn’t find it awkward, as Mu Yan indeed had the talent and credentials.

When Zhuang Chujiao saw Mu Yan and Zhuang Yi interacting closely online, she was furious.

Zhuang Yi dared to expose his officer ID without fear of Mu Yan’s identity being revealed? Or did he want to reveal Mu Yan’s identity to protect her?

Zhuang Chujiao wondered why, if he was Mu Yan’s brother, he wasn’t her brother too? Why hadn’t he defended her?

Unfair, it’s unfair.

She’s also a daughter of the Zhuang Family, yet received unequal treatment. Was it just because they have different mothers?

At this point, Zhuang Chujiao began to resent Liang Rong’s incompetence.

Regardless, she couldn’t stand by and watch Zhuang Xiangnuan live happily; she had to expose her!

Even if it meant mutual destruction, she wanted Zhuang Xiangnuan to pay the price.

Since Jiang Yutai left the Jiang Family, he continued living a life of debauchery, but unfortunately, someone leaked the news of his expulsion. Now, the Upper City second-generation circle doesn’t respect him.

His former cronies have all stopped associating with him.

The large KTV private room held only Jiang Yutai and Zhuang Chujiao.

Jiang Yutai furiously said, "These opportunistic bastards better not let me succeed, or I’ll make them kneel and beg!"

Zhuang Chujiao rolled her eyes internally; with his skills, could he ever succeed?

If it weren’t for him still offering some benefits, she wouldn’t bother keeping him company.

"Brother Yutai, I’m so sad," she suddenly said.

Jiang Yutai felt irritated at this moment too, but seeing she was the only woman with him, he naturally felt touched.

"Jiaojiao, what’s wrong?"

"Even though I’m also a daughter of the Zhuang Family, why are my cousins so biased? Am I so worthless that I’m unworthy of their liking?"

"Of course not, my Jiaojiao is the best; the problem is they’re blind. Don’t worry, I’ll help you teach them a lesson."

"Brother Yutai, this time I want to handle it myself. Can you help me with something?"

Without hesitation, Jiang Yutai replied, "Sure!"
