Marriage Seduction Addiction

Chapter 144 To love someone is to give everything

Gao Yan had no idea what had happened.

But last night, Tang Xu returned the Qiushuitai owner's card to Yan Shiyu.

He had also heard clearly that Tang Xu said that things had come to an end with Yan Shiyu.

This doesn't seem to be a joke or a tantrum.

Tang Xu has always shown a very serious personality.

Gao Yan slowly raised his head and looked towards the second floor.

Because Tang Xu broke up with him, Yan Shiyu lost control of her emotions after seeing Tang Xu yesterday.

That was the second time Gao Yan lost control of his emotions when he saw Yan Shiyu after returning to China.

And the first time was also because of Tang Xu.

Qin Jian and his wife captured Tang Xu, but Tang Xu was rescued by Jiang Muchen before they arrived.

That was the first time Gao Yan realized Tang Xu's influence on Yan Shiyu.

Even though he thought so, he couldn't help but think that there might be other factors at play, which led to Yan Shiyu's loss of control.

But now, Yan Shiyu has lost control for the second time because of Tang Xu.

Even though other factors are still at play this time.

But coincidentally, Tang Xu was involved in both instances.

Could it be just a coincidence?

But if Tang Xu is the real cause, how will things end now that things have come to this?
Gao Yan spent the night on the living room sofa.

He couldn't help but close his eyes for a while as dawn was approaching. He woke up suddenly after only a short time and saw that it was already light. Gao Yan immediately got up from the sofa and quickly went upstairs.

When I opened the door, Yan Shiyu was already standing by the bed.

Before yesterday, his mobility had not fully recovered, and he was given a sedative injection last night. According to that dosage, he should have woken up three hours later, but now he has already stood up on his own.

Gao Yan was startled and quickly stepped forward to help him up.

Yan Shiyu pushed away the hand that was about to help him up.

"fine."

Since he said he's fine, he must have really recovered.

Gao Yan then withdrew his hand with relief, his gaze falling on the bandaged back of Gao Yan's hand, but his heart clenched again instantly.

Yan Shiyu also saw the bandages wrapped around his hands.

He seemed to have forgotten why he had this thing in his hand, and reached out to take it apart.

Gao Yan quickly stopped him.

"Mr. Yan, you have a wound on your hand. Applying medicine will help it heal faster."

Yan Shiyu was not deterred by his actions.

He slowly unwrapped the bandages until the bloody wound on the back of his hand was revealed.

Gao Yan couldn't help but turn his face slightly away.

Yan Shiyu's face remained expressionless as he stared at the wounds, then finally tossed aside the bandages and headed straight for the bathroom.

Gao Yan knew he couldn't stop him, but in the end he could only bend down and pick up the bandage that Gao Yan had thrown away.

Yan Shiyu's voice came from the bathroom doorway, as if nothing had happened—

"Issue a notice that all meetings today will be moved online."

...Before the morning rush hour was over, Gao Yan had already returned to Qiushuitai with Yan Shiyu.

Gao Yan was busy preparing the documents needed for the meeting, going in and out of the room. He originally intended to use the busyness to temporarily put aside some anxiety-inducing things, but every time he went in and out, his eyes were looking around.

He was searching, searching for traces of Tang Xu left in this house.

But after several searches, the conclusion was—

There wasn't a single trace of Tang Xu left in the house.

Yes, she is always very thorough when she comes, and she always takes all her belongings with her when she leaves.

At this moment, Gao Yan had no idea whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

More than a week after leaving the company, Yan Shiyu had a backlog of work to handle, with senior executives from various departments lining up to report to him.

The online meeting lasted until late at night.

Gao Yan also stayed at Qiushuitai until late at night.

However, after the meeting ended, he had no reason to stay any longer.

Yan Shiyu acted as if nothing had happened. Despite having just recovered and having been busy all day, she showed no signs of fatigue.

But the more this happened, the less at ease Gao Yan felt.

After hesitating for a moment, Gao Yan couldn't help but speak softly, "My water is cut off at home today. Could I stay here on the sofa for the night?"

Yan Shiyu only glanced at him.

Gao Yan immediately looked away. "Then I'll go first. You should get some rest."

After going downstairs, Gao Yan sat in his car for a long time. Just as he was about to leave, his phone suddenly rang.

Gao Yan answered the phone and heard Duan Siwei's slightly deep voice on the other end: "How is Yan Shiyu? Has he recovered?"

"It's almost recovered," Gao Yan replied. "We've already started handling official business online today."

Duan Siwei responded calmly, "That's good. I'll make an appointment with him again after he's rested for a few more days."

Upon hearing this, Gao Yan replied in a low voice, "Mr. Yan has probably not been getting enough rest lately."

"why?"

Gao Yan paused for a moment, then finally spoke: "Miss Tang... wants to end this relationship."

"What?" Duan Siwei seemed shocked. "Tang Xu wants to break up?"

Gao Yan responded, "Miss Tang seems very determined. I can't contact her now, and I don't know exactly what happened. Mr. Yan isn't doing well either..."

After a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, Duan Siwei said, "I'll find some time to see her."

……

After that day, Tang Xu continued her life as usual, going to and from get off work on time every day, but she worked much less overtime and got home earlier each day.

That evening, she packed her things and left the company. When she arrived at the parking lot and was about to open the door to get into her car, she suddenly saw the window of a black SUV slowly roll down next to her car.

Duan Siwei sat in the driver's seat looking at her, "It's really not easy to find you. You blocked my number too?"

Tang Xu paused slightly, looked up at him, and said, "I've turned on the silent caller ID function, and I won't answer any unknown numbers."

Upon hearing this, Duan Siwei chuckled, "So I've become an unknown number. What about Yan Shiyu? Is he also an unknown number?"

Tang Xu opened the car door, placed the things she was carrying on the passenger seat, and then turned to look at him. "This relationship is over. I won't have any negative impact on him, nor will I hold him back. Isn't this what you wanted to see, Mr. Duan?"

Duan Siwei gave her a meaningful look. "Do you really need to do this? It's just that you've discovered your relationship isn't as pure as it seems. I always thought you were a very perceptive person. You knew the nature of your relationship all along. In the end, you're throwing a tantrum over something like this. Do you really think it won't have any impact on him?"

"So what does Mr. Duan mean?" Tang Xu countered. "Is it that I should continue to maintain this relationship, or even obediently return to the position of Mrs. Jiang, so that in the future, when he wants to bring down the Jiang family, I can contribute my share?"

"Don't you love him?" Duan Siwei asked. "Shouldn't loving someone mean giving everything?"
