Marriage Seduction Addiction

Tang Xu quietly looked at the confusion on Duan Siwei's face, chuckled softly, and finally answered.

"I think Mr. Duan, you have two misconceptions in your statement. First, even if some people believe that loving someone means giving your all, that only applies to a portion of them, not everyone. Second, I don't love him."

Duan Siwei chuckled upon hearing this, "Tang Xu, we are both sensible people. I know your thoughts and understand your emotions. You don't need to be hypocritical in front of me."

Tang Xu looked at him calmly. "What do you understand? Mr. Duan, although you keep saying 'no virgins allowed,' I've never seen you with a woman in all this time I've known you. If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Duan is completely clueless about matters of love between men and women. So you wouldn't know that infatuation is a common occurrence in relationships. But this kind of confusion is only occasional and never lasts, so it's far from being 'love.'"

Duan Siwei seemed to have never expected to be "educated" like this, and was momentarily stunned.

Tang Xu had already opened the car door and gotten into the car.

Duan Siwei snapped out of his daze, quickly got out of the car, and blocked Tang Xu's car.

Now it was Tang Xu's turn to sit in the car, watching him with a leisurely air.

"Does Mr. Duan have anything else to say?"

Duan Siwei stared intently at her. "So, you're really determined to sever this relationship completely? Just because I asked you to help him?"

“I understand what you mean,” Tang Xu said. “In the end, he helped the Song family, and I owe him a debt. I will definitely repay it. It’s just a pity that I can’t repay it in the way you expect. I’m sorry.”

"Tang Xu!"

Tang Xu started the car immediately.

Duan Siwei still showed no intention of moving aside.

Tang Xu leaned out of the car window, her expression still calm. "Mr. Duan, you don't need to feel that you said or did anything wrong. You yourself said that you are a sensible person, and the sooner this relationship between me and him ends, the better for both of us. Isn't that right?"

Upon hearing this, Duan Siwei's body stiffened slightly.

Indeed, when he realized that Yan Shiyu's feelings for Tang Xu seemed to be more than just a fling, he sensed a crisis.

If this shady relationship cannot be ended cleanly and decisively, it will definitely be a burden for Yan Shiyu.

In particular, Tang Xu later showed signs of developing feelings for Yan Shiyu.

This will only complicate matters further.

But since he wasn't directly involved, if Yan Shiyu was willing and enjoying it, he could only choose to support him.

But now, it is Tang Xu herself who has proposed to end things.

This seems...to be a good thing indeed.

While he was still in a daze, Tang Xu stepped on the gas in neutral in the car.

The engine roared, and Duan Siwei instinctively moved away.

Tang Xu raised his hand, shifted the gear lever, and stepped on the gas, driving straight away.

Duan Siwei watched her car speed away, remaining motionless for a long time.

If things can truly be resolved, that would certainly be a good thing.

But that guy Yan Shiyu...

Can that obsessive guy be dealt with so easily?
……

On this day, Yan Shiyu was still working from home.

In addition to online meetings, Gao Yan also had to frequently go downstairs to receive all sorts of important documents.

Since returning from Europe, Gao Yan has barely had a proper rest. After two days of such intense work, he was on the verge of collapse.

While waiting for Yan Shiyu to finish his last meeting, he leaned back on the sofa and couldn't help but fall asleep.

Even when I'm exhausted and fall asleep, I can't sleep soundly because I still have things on my mind.

About twenty minutes later, Gao Yan suddenly woke up.

He was still the only one in the huge living room.

He assumed Yan Shiyu's meeting wasn't over yet, so he got up and walked to the bar to make himself his nth cup of coffee of the day.

After drinking his coffee, Gao Yan splashed cold water on his face again and returned to the sofa in the living room, where he organized his documents while waiting.

Another half hour passed, and there was still no movement from the study.

Gao Yan immediately felt uneasy, so he quickly got up and went to the study door. He knocked gently and then pushed the door open. The study was empty; Yan Shiyu was nowhere to be seen.
Gao Yan was slightly startled and quickly turned around and went to the master bedroom.

Yan Shiyu was nowhere to be found in the bedroom, the dressing room, or the bathroom.

Yan Shiyu was nowhere to be seen in the entire large, single-level luxury apartment.

Gao Yan's heart jumped into his throat.

He immediately called Yan Shiyu, only to find that Yan Shiyu's phone was still in the study.

Gao Yan was stunned for a moment, then turned and ran outside.

At the same time, Yan Shiyu's car had already parked in the underground parking lot of Yujing Bay, directly opposite Tang Xu's unit elevator.

He could simply get out of the car, walk inside, press the familiar floor button, and he would be able to reach the little house that he knew so well.

However, Yan Shiyu simply sat in the car, a cigarette between his fingers, quietly staring at the door in front of him.

Just then, the light behind the door suddenly came on, illuminating a tall and slender figure.

Then, the door opened, and that familiar figure appeared in the parking lot.

Everything seemed so unreal, except for the garbage bag she was carrying.

The cigarette that Yan Shiyu was holding between his fingers suddenly fell to the ground.

Tang Xu was not initially aware of this area.

But the moment she turned around after throwing away the trash, the scarlet stain that fell to the ground and bounced back still caught her eye.

Then she saw the car and the people sitting inside it.

At that moment, Tang Xu was actually a little dazed.

She knew they would meet again sooner or later.

In many, many places.

But it shouldn't be here.

This is a place he should no longer be in.

In the instant he came to his senses, Tang Xu heard his voice flash through his mind—

"You had the opportunity to quit, but you missed it."

"In my world, there is no turning back."

"You are destined to be entangled with me for the rest of your life."

It was a sound so distant it was almost unfamiliar, as if it came from the horizon.

Peaceful, cold, and awe-inspiring.

She was indeed infatuated.

In those confused and disoriented moments, she completely forgot the words he had once said.

In fact, he has never really hidden his true self.

She was simply idealizing him in her own way.

But he was never the way she imagined him to be.

So, is that why he's here?
If she hadn't happened to come down to throw out the trash, would he have already recklessly barged into her home?
Tang Xu stood there quietly, motionless for a long time.

She showed no emotion, neither sadness nor anger, neither fear nor dread, simply waiting for his next move and reaction.

In her eyes, Yan Shiyu was simply sitting quietly in the car.

But what she didn't know was that Yan Shiyu had already taken action and reacted.

The instant she appeared, the moment the cigarette fell from his fingers.

He quickly withdrew his hand from outside the car.

That hand, completely out of control, almost detached from his body and reason—(End of Chapter)
