Marriage Seduction Addiction

In mid-December, during the Christmas holidays, Tang Xu finally returned to Boston.

She didn't tell Song Yuqiao when she came back. If the two hadn't happened to meet in the elevator, Song Yuqiao would have had no idea she was back.

"When did you get back?" Song Yuqiao asked in shock.

Holding the supplies she had bought from the supermarket, Tang Xu answered casually, "Last night."

"That……"

Song Yuqiao initially wanted to ask her why she hadn't told her, but then she thought that she really didn't need to tell her, so she just glared at her slightly and asked instead, "Is your journey over?"

"No," Tang Xu replied. "It's just that living in a different place every day is a bit tiring, so I'm going to rest for a while before setting off again."

After hearing this, Song Yuqiao remained silent for a moment.

What about you? How are you planning to spend your holiday?

Song Yuqiao paused for a moment before saying, "I've invited my classmates to a party tonight, do you want to come?"

She had always wanted to escape Huai City, and now that she was adapting well to Boston, even on vacation, even though she had a younger brother in Huai City, she never thought of going back.

Since we can meet via video call anyway, instead of flying back specifically to see each other, it's better to stay here and focus on building our lives and social circles.

Tang Xu probably knew what Song Yuqiao was thinking, so she didn't comment much, but simply asked, "Is it convenient for me to attend your classmates' gathering?"

“It’s convenient,” Song Yuqiao said. “They all really want to see you.”

Tang Xu was immediately puzzled, "Huh?"

That evening, Tang Xu still went with Song Yuqiao to the place where her classmates were having a party and met her classmates and friends.

Most of them came from various regions of China, with a few from other countries and the local area. When forty or fifty young people gathered together, the scene was incredibly lively.

Compared to the atmosphere in China, the atmosphere abroad is obviously much more open. Although most of them are new to a foreign country, after three months of immersion, some have already adapted to the foreign culture. Young men and women get together and do all sorts of things.

At that moment, Tang Xu felt only that she had aged.

Mental aging.

Looking at the diverse group of men and women at the party, she felt utterly out of place.

Tang Xu leaned against the window in the corner and observed for a while, and found that Song Yuqiao was also somewhat out of place.

She is actually capable of normal social interaction, but if the other person is a girl, it's fine. However, if it's a boy, Song Yuqiao will strongly resist and avoid him if he tries to cross any social boundaries.

Thinking back on those things she went through, she probably grew as a result.

Just as Tang Xu was thinking this, she suddenly saw another boy walk up to Song Yuqiao. The two exchanged a few words, and then Song Yuqiao suddenly pointed in her direction. Immediately afterwards, the sunny and handsome boy walked straight towards Tang Xu.

"Sister!" Standing in front of Tang Xu, he immediately greeted her with a smile, "Hello, my name is Meng Tianyou, and I'm also from Huai City."

Tang Xu smiled slightly, "Hello, Tianyou."

"I'm so glad to finally meet you in person," Meng Tianyou said. "You're even more beautiful than I imagined."

This young, enthusiastic, and sweet-talking boy successfully made the mentally aged Tang Xu smile. "Thank you for the compliment."

"Doesn't your sister like this occasion? I've noticed you've been standing on the sidelines the whole time, not coming over to drink and chat with us."

Tang Xu said, "It's all about participation."

Meng Tianyou leaned against the other side of the window and looked at her. "Actually, I don't really like it here either. There are too many people and it's a bit too noisy... My apartment is nearby, and it's quite quiet. I recently found some vinyl records. Would you like to go listen to them with me?"

Tang Xu then realized something was wrong. She had originally thought that Meng Tianyou wanted to get close to Song Yuqiao, and that Song Yuqiao was probably annoyed and used her as an excuse to get Meng Tianyou to come and try to get her, as the "parent," to agree.

But now, this trend is not quite right.

She couldn't help but look up at Song Yuqiao, just in time to catch Song Yuqiao looking in their direction. Their eyes met, and Song Yuqiao quickly looked away.

It reveals a guilty conscience.

Tang Xu turned her gaze back to the tall boy standing in front of her and smiled, "I've been traveling alone for months and I'm getting tired of the quiet. It's nice to have some liveliness."

"Really?" Unexpectedly, Meng Tianyou's eyes lit up instantly, and he grabbed Tang Xu's hand. "Then don't stand alone in the corner, come and chat with us."

Tang Xu was thus led into the crowd by him.

Song Yuqiao glanced at the hand Meng Tianyou was holding Tang Xu's, then her gaze quickly flew back to Tang Xu's face.

Before Tang Xu could react, Meng Tianyou introduced her to everyone: "Do you remember the dance that Yu Qiao showed us two months ago? The dancer herself is Sister Tang Xu."

A gasp rippled through the crowd, and Tang Xu was immediately surrounded by men and women.

"My God, that was the most beautiful dance I've ever seen, it was absolutely breathtaking!"

"Sister, you're so amazing! What other dances have you done?"

"Sister, do you still dance? Which theater do you dance at?"

Amidst everyone's enthusiastic questions, Tang Xu finally managed to roughly figure out what had happened.

Two months ago, Song Yuqiao's teacher assigned homework requiring students to showcase their country's culture. Song Yuqiao introduced the national dance and chose a video to play in class.

At first, the video only circulated in the classroom, but somehow it gradually spread throughout the entire study abroad community.

Therefore, most of the people present had seen that video.

That's a segment from the classical dance drama "Jinse" that Tang Xu recorded a few years ago.

When the excerpt was broadcast on television, it was circulated on a small scale and attracted some attention within the industry, but it did not spread widely, so most ordinary people have never actually seen it.

Tang Xu never expected that Song Yuqiao's actions would allow everyone to see that dance, and she felt a mix of emotions.

For a moment, Tang Xu became the center of attention at the party. After finally managing to slip away and go into the restroom, Song Yuqiao took the opportunity to follow her in.

"What do you think?" Song Yuqiao asked.

"Thank you for your efforts in promoting traditional culture." Tang Xu couldn't think of anything else to say for a moment.

Song Yuqiao replied, "I'm asking about Meng Tianyou."

Tang Xu: "..."

“After watching that dance, he was completely captivated by you and frantically inquired about who the dancer was,” Song Yuqiao said. “From what I’ve observed over the past two months, he is warm, cheerful, and generous. He has many friends but is not promiscuous. Overall, he is a very good person.”

"So?" Tang Xu asked.

Song Yuqiao looked at her and said, "The best way to get over a heartbreak is to start a new relationship, isn't it? Isn't Meng Tianyou a good example?"

Tang Xu was speechless.

Unbeknownst to her, this dance, originally circulating among overseas students, had already returned to China and garnered an extremely high number of views on social media platforms. (End of Chapter)
