A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire

Chapter 1106: Bewildered

The wind and snow were quite heavy at the moment. Zhuang Chujiao stood by the roadside, making a phone call while waiting for a ride. Her hands were trembling from the cold, but no amount of cold could extinguish the anger burning in her heart.In no time, the call connected on the other end.

"Guan Chao, you scoundrel, I’m going to kill you!" She shouted in fury.

"What’s wrong? Why is Miss Zhuang so angry?" Guan Chao’s low laugh came through the phone.

Zhuang Chujiao angrily said, "Why was it you in my room last night? Didn’t we agree? You with Zhuang Xiangnuan, me with Jiang Jingheng."

"What nonsense are you talking about? If I did anything to Zhuang Xiangnuan at the Zhuang Family, do you think I’d walk out alive?" Guan Chao replied sarcastically.

Zhuang Chujiao’s expression changed drastically, "So you never intended to cooperate with me from the start. Why did you deceive me?"

"So why did you set such a trap for me?" Guan Chao retorted, "Jiaojiao, you are heartless, and so am I."

Zhuang Chujiao shouted in rage, "You bastard!"

"You didn’t call me that last night. Your sweet ’husband’ calls made my heart melt. I almost broke my back with you." The man’s voice dripped with mockery.

It felt extremely derisive to Zhuang Chujiao’s ears; had she not thought it was Brother Jingheng last night, she would never have...

"Shut up!" She said angrily.

Guan Chao’s voice turned cold, "Don’t act like I raped you. It’s not like you haven’t lain beneath me before. Haven’t we done everything? And don’t think you can use this to extort the Guan Family. I won’t marry a woman like you."

"Guan Chao, you won’t die a good death. Sooner or later I’m going to kill you. Just wait." Zhuang Chujiao screamed hysterically and hung up in anger.

She looked at her phone, rage bubbling up like a volcanic eruption.

"Ah..." She suddenly burst into mad shouting at her surroundings.

A taxi happened to stop beside her, initially intending to pick her up. But seeing her fierce and frenzied state, the driver drove away.

What bad luck it would be to meet a madwoman on New Year’s.

The girl looked pretty, how could she be a lunatic?

Zhuang Chujiao had planned to stop the car, but it drove away, leaving her even more infuriated and frantic.

It was New Year’s, with snowfall, few cars on the road. She couldn’t possibly go back to the Liang Family, and she didn’t know where to go from here. Feeling utterly lost, she suddenly hugged her knees and squatted by the roadside, crying.

Growing up, it was the first time she felt so aggrieved and helpless.

At the Guan Family, in the bedroom, Guan Chao tossed his phone aside and went downstairs.

Mrs. Guan saw her son coming downstairs and asked, "Didn’t sleep last night?"

"Mm." Guan Chao replied casually, then asked, "Is there food?"

"Yes." Mrs. Guan said, instructing the servant to bring out the food.

"Why did you stay at the Zhuang Family last night?" Mr. Guan asked, "Didn’t anything happen?"

"What could have happened?" Guan Chao said impatiently.

He suddenly laughed, "If something happened, it’s to someone else."

Mr. Guan and Mrs. Guan exchanged a glance, "Did something really happen?"

"Stop worrying. Don’t send me to the Zhuang Family again." Guan Chao frowned.

Knowing their son might have caused trouble again, Mr. and Mrs. Guan felt both angry and helpless. He was the only son for generations—a child they couldn’t hit or scold.

"Be more careful. Last time’s broken arm incident should serve as a lesson."

Guan Chao ignored him. He couldn’t help but wonder if something had really happened between him and Mu Yan last night. What would Mu Yan and Jiang Jingheng’s expressions be?

But then he thought it’s unlikely. Not only was Mu Yan awake, Jiang Jingheng was as well. Zhuang Chujiao was a fool; she barely used any drugs even.
