Marriage Seduction Addiction

Chapter 107 Tell Me Who's Behind You

Seeing her like this, Yan Shiyu couldn't help but ask, "You're asleep so early?"

"No," Tang Xu let him in. "I was just feeling a little sleepy, so I lay down on the sofa for a while."

She rubbed her eyes, forcing herself to wake up, and looked at his injured hand. "How's your hand? Did you go to the hospital?"

"The wound isn't deep," Yan Shiyu said as she took off her coat. "It'll be fine in a day or two; there's no need to go to the hospital."

Tang Xu quickly reached out and grabbed his sleeve, carefully pulling his injured hand out of the sleeve, her brows furrowing involuntarily.

Yan Shiyu looked at her and asked, "Why are you back so early?"

Tang Xu paused for a moment and said, "Everyone's interested in gossiping, no one is listening to me at all. It's boring, so I'll come back first."

Upon hearing this, Yan Shiyu asked again, "Is this person the owner of that ultrasound image?"

"You actually remember?" Tang Xu was surprised.

Yan Shiyu looked at her and said, "I didn't remember it at first. After all, at that time, I didn't think that photo was real."

Tang Xu slowly raised her eyes to look at him, and after a long while, she softly hummed: "So you've always thought I was lying to you."

Yan Shiyu didn't respond, but instead set a trap, "Have you ever lied to me?"

Tang Xu's gaze remained fixed on his face. After a moment of silence, she asked, "And you? Have you ever lied to me?"

Yan Shiyu stared at her with deep eyes, and for a moment he did not answer.

Tang Xu's eyes widened. "Really? I'm already like this, what else could Mr. Yan possibly lie to me about?"

Yan Shiyu suddenly reached out and pulled her into his arms.

Tang Xu screamed in fright and turned to look at his hand. She was relieved to find that he was using the uninjured hand. She turned back to him and looked at him with a mournful expression.

Yan Shiyu slowly smiled.

He reached out and brushed aside her long hair that fell over her shoulder, and said softly, "How can you be so easily fooled?"

Tang Xu snorted heavily, trying to get up and leave, but was pulled back into his arms and kissed again.

Tang Xu hesitated several times, but eventually fell into his arms.

……

The next day, Tang Xu quickly browsed social networking sites during her work hours.

Only a few fans were asking where Shi Yan had been all this time; otherwise, there was no related information from last night.

Clearly, the matter was suppressed and did not escalate.

As for who it is, it goes without saying.

Tang Xu couldn't quite explain how she felt about it.

In a few days, it will be the second hearing of her divorce case with Jiang Muchen. If this incident really takes off, it will actually be good for her to get rid of this marriage as soon as possible.

However, if this situation were to make the news, Shi Yan's life and career could be ruined.

She didn't actually have many negative feelings towards Shi Yan; in fact, she even felt a little sorry for her.

She has no right to interfere in other people's lives.

You can only take control of your own life.

Three days later, Jiang Muchen finally appeared in court.

As soon as he appeared, the reporters waiting outside the court immediately launched a barrage of questions, but Jiang Muchen did not respond to a single word.

The reporters had hoped to uncover some big news today. Regardless of the outcome of this trial, it's worth analyzing thoroughly.

Unexpectedly, the trial was rescheduled before it even began.

Jiang Muchen filed a motion for recusal in court, arguing that the court clerk in this hearing had some complicated family relationship with the Song family.

Both Tang Xu and the unfamiliar clerk were surprised by this.

The court was helpless and could only announce that the trial would be rescheduled again.

If Jiang Muchen's so-called "car crash" last time was an accident, then today, the fact that he brought up a "family relationship" that even the parties involved didn't know about is quite intriguing.

Anyone with a brain can make their own judgment.

Tang Xu even burst out laughing in court, rubbing his forehead.

This happened once, it happened twice, who knows what new tricks Jiang Muchen will come up with for the third time?
She stared intently at Jiang Muchen, but Jiang Muchen didn't even glance at her. After the judge announced the rescheduling, he turned and left the courtroom.

Tang Xu immediately stood up and walked out of the courtroom.

Jiang Muchen went down to the underground parking lot, where the driver had already started the car and was waiting for him to get in.

However, just as he got into the car and was about to leave, the driver slammed on the brakes, making a screeching sound in the underground parking garage.

Jiang Muchen slowly raised his eyes and saw the woman standing at the front of the car. His eyes turned cold.

Tang Xu walked slowly to his car door. "Why don't you just tell me your methods for the next time and the time after that? That way, we won't waste everyone's emotions and energy like this."

Jiang Muchen didn't look at her, his profile cold. "Since you've filed a lawsuit, you naturally support procedural justice. What, have I done something wrong?"

“Of course you didn’t,” Tang Xu said. “You’re just as adept as ever at using your power to drive people crazy. Isn’t Shi Yan a perfect example?”

Upon hearing Shi Yan's name, Jiang Muchen's expression darkened further, and his aura became frighteningly cold.

If an outsider saw Jiang Muchen at this moment, they would most likely be frightened and keep their distance, but Tang Xu had nothing to fear.

“Instead of going to court again and again, let’s just talk it out,” Tang Xu said. “Jiang Muchen, what exactly do you want for you to agree to a divorce?”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Muchen finally turned to look at her.

His icy gaze lingered on Tang Xu's face for a long time, and when he finally spoke, his voice was chillingly cold—

"Fine, tell me who's behind you, and I'll consider divorcing you."

Upon hearing this, Tang Xu's expression didn't change much; he simply chuckled softly again.

"If I really had someone backing me, wouldn't you know?"

Jiang Muchen looked at her and said, "Do you need me to count for you how much you did during that period? Tang Xu, could you have done that on your own?"

"Why not?" Tang Xu retorted. "You know me well. What kind of thing can't I do?"

Jiang Muchen understood her implication, his eyes darkening further, as if he could jump out of the car at any moment and strangle her to death.

"That's enough." Tang Xu breathed a sigh of relief. "I know we won't be able to reach an agreement. It's okay, Jiang Muchen. Even if the court rules against us getting a divorce in the end, I can file again a year later. By then, the court will grant the divorce no matter what. The outcome won't change. I can just wait another year. I'm still young, and I'm not short of time."

After saying this, Tang Xu turned around and prepared to leave.

However, the next moment, Jiang Muchen's voice rang out behind her again—

"Tang Xu, from beginning to end, you haven't answered my question directly. So, you're admitting that you have someone backing you, right?"

Tang Xu paused briefly, then continued walking without looking back. (End of Chapter)
