Marriage Seduction Addiction

Chapter 148 Miss Tang isn't coming back?
This answer sounds extremely insincere and is simply a perfunctory response.

However, since Song Yuqiao had almost never paid attention to Tang Xu before, she didn't really remember when Tang Xu stopped dancing.

As far as she could remember, Tang Xu married into the Jiang family not long after graduation, and naturally, she stopped dancing after that.

And before that...

Song Yuqiao only remembered that she had participated in a TV dance program when she was a junior in college, and she received high praise at the time. However, she had no recollection of dancing after that.

Dancing was something that was so important to her, but now it seems to have been completely ripped out of her life, which is hardly a pleasant thing.

Therefore, Song Yuqiao did not pursue the matter further, but muttered, "No one said that you have to learn to dance to study abroad. There are many other things you can learn besides dancing."

Upon hearing this, Tang Xu's mind stirred slightly, and he suddenly said, "That hits the nail on the head."

Song Yuqiao said this unintentionally, and after hearing Tang Xu's response, she was stunned for a moment before saying, "Are you considering studying abroad?"

"Is that not possible?" Tang Xu said. "Maybe I can prepare myself and become your schoolmate?"

Song Yuqiao immediately took it seriously. After thinking for a moment, she said, "If you want to study here, then aren't you going back? You're not going to care about the people and things back home?"

“Yeah, whatever,” Tang Xu said. “Isn’t that good?”

Song Yuqiao looked away and said, "It's your decision, how would I know if it's good or not?"

Tang Xu was truly impressed by this young lady's naiveté and laughed, "You think the world is so big that you can just learn it whenever you want? I got a tourist visa!"

Song Yuqiao choked for a moment, glared at her slightly, and said nothing more.

Although Tang Xu said she came for tourism, she stayed in Boston for almost half a month until Song Yuqiao finished her studies. Only then did she finally leave Boston and begin her journey to other cities.

From beginning to end, Tang Xu was always alone.

Song Yuqiao was actually somewhat worried about this, since the security situation abroad is not that good.

However, Tang Xu has always been a person with her own ideas, and Song Yuqiao did not have the confidence to interfere with her.

……

In the second month after Tang Xu left, the Huai City Chamber of Commerce held a grand charity dinner.

Because it was personally presided over by Ye Hanzhang, the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce, many business figures were invited to attend.

Yan Shiyu was delayed by company matters and arrived late, just as the banquet had begun.

The usher led him to his seat, and as soon as Yan Shiyu looked up, he saw Jiang Muchen sitting at the same table as him.

Whether this arrangement was intentional or unintentional, everyone in the business world knows that the Yan family and the Jiang family are now completely disregarding kinship and are in a competitive position. Yet, the conference still arranged for the two to sit together, and countless eyes were waiting to see what would happen.

Yan Shiyu remained composed and dignified as always. Although she arrived late, she still greeted everyone at the table.

Including Jiang Muchen.

Jiang Muchen has always disregarded others, but in front of everyone, he still raised his glass to accept Yan Shiyu's toast.

Anyone can play along.

In that case, there's no chance to watch the good show.

Just as everyone was beginning to feel disappointed, someone came up from the back table to offer a toast, and then, in the manner of an elder, spoke to Jiang Muchen at length.

Despite being called an elder, this person was some distant relative, someone who seemed completely unaware of Jiang Muchen's personality. They immediately inquired about his private life: "How's your divorce going? You really need to be careful about this. You are, after all, the CEO of Jiang's Group. If these personal matters affect the company, it would be a huge loss. You must resolve this as soon as possible!"

Jiang Muchen never gives a friendly look to people he doesn't know well, let alone someone who comes up with something that displeases him and acts like he's lecturing him. He immediately frowns, doesn't bother to respond, beckons a staff member over, and sends the person away with a single glance.

Not long after, Ye Hanzhang appeared at the table, greeted everyone, and then called Yan Shiyu and Jiang Muchen to talk together.

Only then did everyone realize that Ye Hanzhang had been hoping to make peace that evening.

However, how could two people who are both favored by heaven and equally young and ambitious make peace so easily?
Throughout, Yan Shiyu maintained a gentle and smiling demeanor. He agreed to everything Ye Hanzhang said, but never gave a direct answer.

As for Jiang Muchen, he didn't even have the patience to listen to him. He simply replied a few words and then turned and left.

Ye Hanzhang watched his retreating figure and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh slightly: "He really can't keep his composure."

Yan Shiyu said slowly, "He also has the ability to be impatient."

Upon hearing this, Ye Hanzhang turned to look at him and smiled, "In terms of capital, you two are equally matched. As expected of those personally raised by Old Master Yan, it's truly enviable. Since you took over Yan's Group, its stock price has soared."

"It's just doing what I'm supposed to do," Yan Shiyu said.

Ye Hanzhang smiled and said, "When are you going to start thinking about your life's most important matter? Quite a few people have been asking me about your criteria for choosing a partner."

Yan Shiyu only chuckled and did not respond with a single word.

……

After the banquet, Yan Shiyu was stopped by many people to talk to, and he responded to each one.

When I got back to the car, Gao Yan had already been waiting in the engine for more than half an hour.

Seeing Yan Shiyu get into the car, Gao Yan knew he would drink a lot at such a banquet, so he quickly handed him some hangover soup.

Yan Shiyu did not answer.

Outside the car, he remained the dignified, composed, humble, and polite heir of the Yan family.

As soon as he sat in the car, his aura turned cold, and his face lost all warmth.

Gao Yan placed the thermos in front of him before speaking again: "Someone was asked to leave the venue early, I don't know who he is, but Jiang Muchen's men took him away. I sent someone to check, and they cornered that guy on an empty street and beat him up. Jiang Muchen wouldn't normally get involved in these things, but just now, after leaving early, he actually went over and kicked that guy a few times... and quite hard, which shows he really hates him."

Yan Shiyu has still not made any statement on this matter.

Gao Yan then started the car and drove away.

After driving for a while, he seemed to remember something, glanced at Yan Shiyu in the rearview mirror, and then said, "There was a bit of an accident at Fengzheng today, and it caused quite a stir. But it seems they didn't notify Miss Tang. The manager is planning to handle it himself."

Yan Shiyu had her eyes closed, so it was unclear whether she had heard or not.

This is the first time Gao Yan has mentioned Tang Xu in a while.

He mustered almost all his courage; now that he had spoken, he had no more reservations.

Seeing that Yan Shiyu did not react, he muttered to himself, "Miss Tang isn't not coming back, is she?"

In the back seat of the car, Yan Shiyu quietly opened her eyes.

His eyes were deep and dark.
