Marriage Seduction Addiction

Chapter 206 Companion
This situation seems familiar.

Whether in the past or present, Jiang Muchen has always acted this way, calling out to her in a condescending manner whenever he needs her help.

When Tang Xu was still willing to acknowledge himself as "Mrs. Jiang," she cooperated with him twice.

Later on, she no longer had any obligation to him, nor was she in the mood to cooperate with him.

Tang Xu pretended not to hear or see anything and walked straight to her car.

A figure stood behind her car. As Tang Xu approached, he moved a few steps and stood in front of her car door, seemingly to block her from getting in.

Tang Xu then realized that the person was Cheng Jin.

"What do you want to do?" Tang Xu asked.

Cheng Jin glanced in the direction of Jiang Muchen's car and said in a low voice, "Mr. Jiang said he wants to talk to you."

"Even if you're with him now, you should know that I don't want to talk to him at all."

“I know,” Cheng Jin said calmly and solemnly, “but I want you to know that he is truly sincere this time. Talking to him will do you no harm. It may even be beneficial for you and Mr. Yan…”

Tang Xu looked at him suspiciously.

In her assessment, Cheng Jin is undeniably "selfish." He is adept at protecting himself and will never wade into troubled waters.

But now, he's actually stating the pros and cons to her and saying things like that.

Tang Xu was still a little stunned.

Cheng Jin seemed to sense Tang Xu's doubt, paused for a moment, and then said, "Even for Mr. Song's sake, you should believe me."

Upon hearing him mention Song Yuting, Tang Xu lowered her eyes quietly for a moment, then suddenly laughed and turned to walk towards Jiang Muchen's car.

The driver was already standing by the back door. When he saw Tang Xu approaching, he quickly opened the door.

Tang Xu bent down and sat inside, and the car door closed quickly.

As if afraid she would run away, Tang Xu also heard the sound of the lock being locked.

She ignored him and didn't even look at Jiang Muchen, simply asking, "What do you want to say?"

After last night's events, they added new grudges to their old ones. Tang Xu had no expectations of what he could possibly say to him.
Jiang Muchen didn't look at her either.

Sure enough, no matter how much mental preparation and preparation I did, as long as I was in the same space as her, that excruciating pain would clamor to break through my body, frantically wanting to vent, wanting to retaliate, wanting to make her suffer a hundred or a thousand times more pain.

Jiang Muchen clenched his fists tightly to prevent himself from blurting out certain words.

Unable to get a reply from him, Tang Xu spoke up again: "If it's still about my background, you can do whatever you want with it."

Jiang Muchen finally turned to look at her, and sneered, "Even if I make this news public?"

"Hmm." Tang Xu still didn't look at him. "Since I can't stop it, why bother myself? Anyway, I have to accept it... I've already accepted this."

At that moment, Jiang Muchen recalled the word "fairness" that Cheng Kou had mentioned.

However, what he experienced was "injustice".

He never cared about using despicable or dirty methods. All he knew was that he had revealed the most powerful bargaining chip he could use to threaten her, yet she remained indifferent. How unfair!
Jiang Muchen used all his strength to control his body and breathing, while Tang Xu spoke again: "If this is what you wanted to say, then I've heard it all. Can I leave now?"

After saying that, she turned her face away. Knowing that the car door couldn't be opened at the moment, she still tried to reach out her hand. However, the instant she raised her hand, Jiang Muchen suddenly reached out and grabbed her forcefully.

He was incredibly strong; with just that one grip, Tang Xu winced in pain and finally couldn't help but glance at him.

At that glance, Tang Xu could clearly see several bruises on his face.

That was caused by fighting with Yan Shiyu last night.

He must have used some means to cover up the wounds, but it was already late at night, and the special lighting inside the car made it visible to her.

Jiang Muchen also saw the pain on her face, which stimulated his nerves, so much so that he unconsciously increased his strength and stared intently at every change in her expression.

"Jiang Muchen!" Tang Xu cried out in pain, calling him by his full name.

Jiang Muchen seemed to be suddenly awakened, and his hands unconsciously loosened their grip.

Tang Xu suddenly pulled his hand back, reached out and tried to open the car door. When he found that he couldn't open it, he rammed the car door hard with his elbow.

Jiang Muchen had seen all her actions, and only now did he seem to finally remember the purpose of his trip.

As Tang Xu angrily retreated, Jiang Muchen spoke up again: "I'm not here today to talk to you about your past."

"Really?" Tang Xu chuckled. "Then is there anything else you'd like to say?"

Jiang Muchen turned to look at her again, "What I want to know is, is Jiang Beiheng's illness true?"

Tang Xu was slightly taken aback for a moment before she sneered, "So today, Old Huang and Old Jin brought the doctor here not to treat Dad, but to help you confirm whether he has really relapsed?"

Jiang Muchen did not respond to this.

Tang Xu nodded, then said, "I'm really sorry, I really can't answer your question, because I haven't heard the doctor talk about his condition myself, nor have I seen any diagnosis, so it's hard to say whether he's really sick. I wonder if this news is good news or bad news for you?"

The sarcasm in her words was so obvious, yet miraculously, Jiang Muchen did not get angry again.

He suddenly remembered the time when she would speak to him in a normal tone.

But that was so far away, so far away that he could no longer remember any of the scenes or the words she had spoken.

He only remembered that at that time, she would occasionally smile.

Sincere, bright, and touching.

But since when did her words become nothing but sarcasm, and her smile become nothing but a cold laugh?
His thoughts had wandered so far that when he came to his senses, he could only echo her words and ask her a question in return—

"So, is that good news or bad news for you?"

"Does what I think matter to you? You already have your own answer, don't you?" Tang Xu answered, meeting his still somewhat dazed gaze. "For you, the only thing that matters is yourself. So if I were you, I would walk in myself and ask him face to face if he's really sick. If he really is sick, you would mock him to his face, saying he got what he deserved. If he's not sick, you could still tell him the same thing... Isn't that what you want?"

Tang Xu originally thought that if she said these words, Jiang Muchen would most likely be furious and so angry that he would want to strangle her to death on the spot in the car.

Surprisingly, Jiang Muchen remained eerily calm after listening to her call.

Just when she was starting to doubt if she was dreaming, she finally heard Jiang Muchen's voice again—

"What if I told you I wanted you to accompany him to receive treatment abroad?"
