Marriage Seduction Addiction

Chapter 110 Wanting to Get Closer to Him

Tang Xu didn't sleep all night.

She really wanted to call Gao Yan, but she was afraid of interfering with his work.

So she sent Gao Yan a text message.

"Mr. Yan, what happened? Could you call me back when you have time?"

She waited until almost dawn, but the phone call still hadn't come.

After thinking it over and over, Tang Xu made a phone call to Duan Siwei.

At this time, most people should be asleep, but Duan Siwei's voice was unusually awake when he answered the phone.

At that moment, Tang Xu's already uneasy heart sank even more.

"Do you know what happened to him?" Tang Xu asked directly.

Duan Siwei remained silent for a moment before letting out a soft sigh and saying to her, "If I said it was just a small trouble, nothing serious, would you believe me?"

Tang Xu countered, "Can I trust you?"

"Believe it or not, there's nothing you can do to help right now anyway, so just wait patiently. Live your life as usual, and don't let others sense your emotions."

Duan Siwei had never spoken to her in such a serious tone before.

In an instant, the image of that absurd and spoiled rich kid seemed to have been completely ripped away from him.

Tang Xu was not surprised at all by his statement.

After all, Duan Siwei had already started reminding her from the day of the Chamber of Commerce dinner.

Tang Xu certainly knew how to hide himself.

But he told her to wait patiently.

How can she feel at ease?

He was completely out of contact with her, and she had no idea what had happened.

Tang Xu had no idea how she had spent the day.

She went to the company and dealt with business all day, but in the end, she couldn't remember anything she had actually done.

Everyone left that night, leaving her alone in the office. She didn't know what to do and could only wait aimlessly.

This endless waiting is just too long.

But what else could she do?

At this moment, Tang Xu suddenly realized that her understanding of Yan Shiyu was ridiculously limited.

All along, she seemed to know that it was him, that he had Gao Yan and Duan Siwei by his side, but what else did he do on a daily basis, who did he associate with, and why he faced danger even when traveling on business...

She never understood, nor did she ever think of trying to understand.

So now, since it's inconvenient for Gao Yan and Duan Siwei to contact each other, she really knows nothing.

Tang Xu stayed in the office until the early hours of the morning before finally going home.

The house was still empty; it wasn't a big house, but it felt like something was missing.

Tang Xu threw herself onto the sofa and lay there quietly, continuing to wait.

Another incredibly long night passed, and she still hadn't received any news.

In the morning, Tang Xu made a phone call to Wei Ming.

"Mr. Wei, you mentioned Mr. Chang Minghui's port last time. I'd like to visit it sometime. Would that be convenient?"

“What’s inconvenient about that?” Wei Ming said. “If you’re really interested in developing the shipping business, wouldn’t that be a mutually beneficial thing for us? When do you plan to go? I’ll let Lao Chang know.”

"Is today okay?"

Although Wei Ming felt somewhat confused and surprised, he still decisively helped Tang Xu make the connection.

Tang Xu tidied himself up, quickly drove out the door, and headed to Jinshi.

She knew there was nothing she could do.

Even after arriving in Jinshi, she still didn't know what had happened or where to look for him.

But at least she was there, wasn't she?

Even if it's meaningless.

At least, I can be closer to him.

At 11 a.m., Tang Xu arrived at the port.

Chang Minghui, a person who owns a large private port, would naturally not appear, but staff were still arranged to receive her.

Tang Xu rode in the staff's car and toured the bustling port.

Around noon, the staff arranged for her to eat in the cafeteria. Although it was a cafeteria, the food looked excellent, and the staff highly recommended it.

Tang Xu was very grateful, but she really had no appetite.

After taking a few bites, Tang Xu took the opportunity to go to the restroom.

After washing her hands, Tang Xu looked up at herself in the mirror.

She had carefully put on makeup early in the morning, but now, even the most exquisite makeup couldn't hide her tired and pale appearance.

But she still had to wear this mask and try her best to go out and keep smiling.

Tang Xu couldn't help but close her eyes and take a deep breath.

Just then, someone bumped into her from behind.

Tang Xu opened her eyes and saw a beautiful stranger smiling apologetically at her, "Miss, I'm so sorry, I just twisted my ankle, did I hurt you?"

"It's nothing," Tang Xu shook her head and responded faintly.

The woman smiled at her again before walking into the toilet stall.

Tang Xu then turned on the tap to wash her hands, but when she looked down, she noticed that her handbag seemed to be in a slightly different position than before.

Was it accidentally touched when that woman bumped into her?
Tang Xu looked down.

There weren't many things in her handbag; a quick glance revealed that nothing was missing.

In fact, it seems like there's something extra.

Tang Xu looked into the mirror at the cubicle where the woman was.

She washed her hands for a long time, but there was no movement from that cubicle.

Tang Xu finally finished washing her hands, and stood in front of the mirror rubbing them for a long time before finally picking up her handbag and leaving the bathroom.

After lunch, the staff took her on a tour of the port, and Tang Xu took some photos to record her observations.

At 3 p.m., the tour came to an end, and the staff escorted her back to her car.

As Tang Xu drove away from the port, she would look at the sky, then at the city, and then at her handbag.

She has already finished touring the port; now she should head to the highway and leave the way she came.

She didn't know what else she could do to justify staying in the city.

Perhaps, she shouldn't have stayed at all?

With the highway exit just ahead, Tang Xu finally couldn't resist and slammed on the brakes, pulling over to the side of the road.

Then, she got out of the car, squatted by the roadside, and pretended to vomit.

Cars came and went behind her, but no one paid any attention to her.

Perhaps if she faints here right now, a kind person passing by will call an ambulance for her.

Just as she was thinking this, a car suddenly stopped in front of her car.

Tang Xu turned her head slightly and saw two men getting out of the car.

Immediately afterwards, another car stopped behind hers.

Two men got off the bus.

The men looked at her with suspicion.

It didn't seem like the kind of suspicion that comes from a well-meaning person.

It's more like... following the wrong person.

Some people stood behind her, while others circled her car to inspect it.

But no one asked her any questions.

Tang Xu remained calm and composed, and did not ask the other party any questions.

After her car was inspected, someone picked up her handbag and looked at the person in charge.

Tang Xu thought of the woman he had met in the bathroom earlier that day.

The leader then spoke up: "Miss, is that bag yours?"

"Otherwise what?" Tang Xu retorted somewhat rudely, "Did I steal it?"

The other person was clearly taken aback, but her reaction was still suspicious to them no matter what.

"Take her back first," the leader ordered.

Tang Xu's expression didn't change at all.

In the end, I stayed.
