Marriage Seduction Addiction

Chapter 121 Because, she also wanted to see him.
The sudden question startled Tang Xu, who was clearly puzzled.

"what?"

She had absolutely no idea how to respond.

Fortunately, Yan Shiyu did not seem to expect any definite answer from her. After quietly watching her for a moment, he withdrew his hand from her body and got out of bed.

Tang Xu was still a little confused, looking at his movements, "Are you leaving?"

Yan Shiyu then looked up at her again and said frankly, "Take a bath."

This answer surprised Tang Xu once again.

She quickly reached out and grabbed him, frowned slightly, and then said softly, "Could you bear with it for a bit and wash it when we get back?"

"No," Yan Shiyu replied.

Tang Xu couldn't help but grit his teeth.

Although she knew his habits, and it was indeed inhumane to make someone as fastidious as him wait until he got home to shower, he had forced his way in tonight, gone too far, and even wanted to shower openly...

She was really having a headache, but there was nothing she could do. She could only get up as he moved, and still whispered, "Then try to be as gentle as possible."

Yan Shiyu did not give a yes or no.

Tang Xu dared not let him go to the bathroom to shower alone, so she wrapped her clothes around herself and followed him out of the room. She sat on the sofa in the living room and carefully listened to the sounds coming from both sides.

That way, if any unexpected incident occurs where Song Yuqiao suddenly appears again, she will have a chance to remedy the situation.

She wondered if it was just her imagination, but she felt that Yan Shiyu had taken a very long time to take a bath this time.

Hearing the continuous sound of water coming from the bathroom, Tang Xu couldn't help but stand up, walk to the bathroom door, and want to push it open to see what he was doing.

But the moment she raised her hand, she suddenly realized that she seemed to be overly nervous.

But why am I so nervous?

Is it really because of Song Yuqiao's existence?

Tang Xu couldn't help but freeze for a moment.

In fact, although she was worried, nervous, and scared that night, it was her repeated indulgence that led to the current situation.

Such indulgence is not simply because he cannot refuse.

Perhaps more so, it's because of my own secret thoughts.

Because she also wanted to see him.

Even in this situation, even knowing that tonight's events were almost insane, she still let it all happen.

Realizing this, Tang Xu felt a moment of utter chaos in her mind.

She quickly stepped back from the bathroom doorway and unconsciously returned to the bedroom.

She sat on the edge of the bed in the bedroom, trying her best to calm herself down.

Not long after sitting down, Tang Xu suddenly heard her phone vibrate. She turned her head and saw Yan Shiyu's phone on the bedside table.

The phone displayed Gao Yan's name as the caller ID.

It was past 3 a.m. when Gao Yan called him again. Was there something urgent?

Tang Xu didn't care about anything else. She took her phone and walked to the bathroom door. Just as she was about to knock gently, Yan Shiyu opened the door from the inside.

Tang Xu immediately pushed him back into the bathroom, closing the door as she handed him her phone.

The moment the door closed, Tang Xu realized that she had also come in.

But if he wanted to go out again, he was afraid of making too much noise, so he could only stand against the back of the door and wait for him to finish the phone call.

The bathroom was filled with steam after a shower, damp and stuffy, and even the air felt thin.

Tang Xu stood quietly, watching Yan Shiyu answer the phone, then immediately looked away. But Yan Shiyu kept watching her.

The instant her gaze averted, Yan Shiyu, engrossed in his phone call, stepped forward and gently grasped her chin.

Tang Xu had no choice but to look at him again.

Their eyes met, and Yan Shiyu lowered his head and kissed him.

Tang Xu's originally clear mind became chaotic and confused once again the moment he kissed her.

Even though they had just experienced the most intimate moment between a man and a woman, this kiss still left them powerless to resist.

Tang Xu responded to him somewhat unconsciously.

At the same time, in this enclosed and quiet space, she could clearly hear Gao Yan's voice on the other end of the phone—

"I just finished dinner with Ni Ruiyuan. Although only Mr. Wang represented him, and he seemed slightly dissatisfied, he appeared interested in the conditions we proposed. If you can speak with him directly, we should be able to finalize the deal..."

Upon hearing the name "Ni Ruiyuan," Tang Xu was taken aback, but after listening to what Gao Yan said next, she gradually realized what was going on.

Although she didn't know Ni Ruiyuan personally, the name belonged to a well-known Chinese businessman who was deeply associated with the Jiang family and had collaborated with them on many occasions.

Even though her mind was not clear at this moment, she understood what had happened and couldn't help but want to ask him something, but found that he was still covering her lips with his.

After Gao Yan finished saying what he wanted to say and received no response, he couldn't help but call out, "Mr. Yan?"

Just then, a soft moan escaped Tang Xu's lips.

There was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, followed by the sound of the call being disconnected.

Yan Shiyu simply kissed him even harder.

Until Tang Xu accidentally bumped into the doorknob, and instantly stiffened in pain.

Yan Shiyu finally slowly pulled away from her lips and reached out to rub the spot on her waist where she had been bumped.

Tang Xu was in pain and panting. After a moment of silence, she looked up at him and asked, "You want to cooperate with Ni Ruiyuan?"

Yan Shiyu's warm palm was still on her waist, and he responded softly, "Mm."

“Ni Ruiyuan has always maintained a close relationship with the Jiang family,” Tang Xu said. “If he turns around and cooperates with you, it would be tantamount to breaking ties with the Jiang family—”

Yan Shiyu looked down at her and said slowly, "So what?"

Tang Xu felt a little uneasy. "Once he breaks with the Jiang family because of the Yan family, then the Yan family and the Jiang family will only be on opposite sides."

"Do you think I can't stand on this opposing side?" Yan Shiyu asked.

Perhaps due to the lack of oxygen, Tang Xu was unsure of what she was thinking; she just felt uneasy.

“But the Yan family and the Jiang family are relatives, so this will strain the relationship between the two families,” she said.

"You care?"

Tang Xu paused, recalling the news she had heard from Wen Qingyu that afternoon, and asked again, "Is it because the Jiang family snatched the Yan family's project first?"

Yan Shiyu's gaze fell on her face, seemingly surprised that she knew these things.

However, he simply looked at her, neither admitting nor denying it.

This seemed to be the answer, but Tang Xu still felt something was wrong.

The current contact between the Yan family and Ni Ruiyuan has progressed to the point where Wang Xun and Gao Yan have gone abroad to meet with Ni Ruiyuan. The next step is for Yan Shiyu to personally meet with Ni Ruiyuan. This process is certainly not something that can be accomplished in the short term.

In other words, they must have been in contact with Ni Ruiyuan for quite some time.

That's quite a long time, how long is it?
So, were those projects that slipped through the Yan family's hands and ended up with the Jiang family really "snatched" by the Jiang family's top management?
If all of this was premeditated...

When did he begin preparing to take action against the Jiang family?
