Marriage Seduction Addiction

Chapter 214 Yaoyao, do you have time to meet?

Tang Xu's voice was soft and calm, unhurried, as if it had endless confidence.

The man's expression was initially quite unpleasant, but upon seeing Tang Xu's reaction, he seemed momentarily stunned. He then glared at Tang Xu before reluctantly leaving her car and returning to the vehicle in front.

Tang Xu saw him stop at the back door and bend down to say something to the person inside.

The car was covered in dark tint, so Tang Xu couldn't see how many people were inside or how they were reacting.

She only saw that after about a few dozen seconds, the man stood up straight, turned around, and walked back towards her.

The man's expression had returned to its fierce look as he stared intently at Tang Xu. "My wife said she won't hold it against you this time, and that you shouldn't follow us anymore."

Hearing this cold threat, Tang Xu paused for a moment, then suddenly laughed.

The man looked at her as if she were crazy; after all, Tang Xu's reaction was really quite bizarre.

"Then please tell her that I won't be grateful if she doesn't hold this against me, because I still have many things to settle with her one by one."

The man glanced at Tang Xu with a slightly surprised expression once more, muttered something under his breath, and then turned and got into the car in front of him without responding.

Tang Xu sat in the car, watching the car drive forward again, and followed it once more.

As we passed an intersection ahead, the car in front suddenly made a sharp turn and quickly drove onto the side road.

Tang Xu continued to pursue relentlessly.

The car noticeably increased its speed, weaving through traffic before finally disappearing from Tang Xu's sight.

This was expected, and Tang Xu was not disappointed.

She continued driving steadily, smoothly turning at the next intersection and heading towards the company.

Back in the office, Tang Xu turned on her computer and looked at the vast amount of data on it. She had been working with great enthusiasm all this time, but suddenly she didn't know where to start.

It seemed that the answer was already laid out before her, and all she needed to do was to prove it.

But is this evidence important to her?

unimportant.

Because some people are guilty even without any evidence.

An unforgivable sin.

Tang Xu spent the entire morning in the office, filled with anger and confusion, and accomplished almost nothing.

When it finally came to noon, she vaguely realized that she couldn't continue like this. Just as she was about to do something, someone knocked on her office door.

Tang Xu looked up and saw Jiang Chao.

As the person sent by Yan Shiyu to protect her, Jiang Chao has stood up for her several times. Although he doesn't usually show up, Tang Xu can still consider him an acquaintance.

"Miss Tang." Jiang Chao stepped forward and placed an SD card on Tang Xu's table. "Mr. Yan instructed me to bring this to you."

Tang Xu picked up the card with some confusion, and was about to ask what it was when Jiang Chao turned and left.

His reaction suggests that he doesn't feel comfortable saying much about this.

Tang Xu hesitated for a moment, then decisively inserted the card into the computer.

That was a trip log card, which contained a video of a lane from this morning.

At first, Tang Xu didn't see anything.

Until a traffic light intersection, she saw the Maybach she had chased that morning.

Tang Xu's gaze suddenly froze.

The car recording this footage drove smoothly through traffic, unlike her who blatantly followed, skillfully concealing itself. This is how the car captured the final stopping point of the Maybach.

It was a newly developed villa community in the south of the city. The occupancy rate was not high, and it was especially deserted on Sunday mornings.

Tang Xu didn't know what trick they used, but the car actually followed them directly into the residential area.

That's why she was able to clearly see the woman who got out of the car.

Her origin—Tanglan.

Even though she already had the answer in her heart, Tang Xu couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion when he saw her clearly.

For nearly eighteen years, Tang Xu had not seen her again.

At her young and naive age, she felt that Tang Lan must have had her reasons, her unavoidable grievances, or her heart broken, which was why she chose to leave and never see her, her own daughter, again.

Later, as she grew older, she realized that even with great hardship and grievances, wanting to see someone wasn't actually that difficult. Even if they were separated by vast distances and couldn't meet, a phone call could convey a lot.

She gradually came to realize that she was a child abandoned by her mother.

She couldn't accept or integrate into her father's new family, and her mother didn't want her, so Tang Xu began a life of self-abandonment.

If she hadn't learned the truth later... she probably would have given up on herself for the rest of her life.

Now, looking at the woman on the screen who still had a beautiful face and a good figure, she remembered how she had been heartbroken for her, how she had changed her surname to Tang for her sake, and how she had fought against Song Yuting and Qin Yun for her sake...

She felt really ridiculous.

……

On this day, Tang Xu saw the sunset on her way home from get off work, which was a rare sight.

She got home before seven o'clock, checked the time, and called Yan Shiyu.

An hour later, Yan Shiyu also arrived at Yujing Bay.

Tang Xu was busy packing the groceries she bought from the restaurant when she suddenly turned around and saw him. She exclaimed, "Oh dear!" and said, "Why are you back so fast? We're not ready yet!"

Yan Shiyu stood at the kitchen doorway watching her busy work, "Is this what you call preparation?"

"Why not?" Tang Xu retorted, her voice both defiant and confident. "Choosing restaurants and dishes takes so much time and energy; I was busy with all of that from start to finish!"

Yan Shiyu chuckled upon hearing this, then asked, "Do you need any help?"

"No need!" Tang Xu refused decisively. "You can just sit down and wait to eat."

Yan Shiyu then indeed stopped interfering.

Soon, Tang Xu brought the last dish to the table, along with a bottle of wine and two wine glasses. He then pulled out a chair and sat down, pouring wine as he said to Yan Shiyu, "These are dishes I've carefully prepared. You should eat more of them."

Yan Shiyu watched her pour the wine, responded with a sound of agreement, and then asked, "What day is it today? Is it necessary to celebrate like this?"

“The more ordinary the day, the more we should celebrate,” Tang Xu replied. “Besides, I should thank you…”

"In which aspect?" Yan Shiyu asked.

"Thank you for taking me in last night." Tang Xu looked up at him and smiled. "If you hadn't taken me in, I probably wouldn't have been able to sleep at all."

As she spoke, she handed the wine glass to Yan Shiyu, then picked up her own glass and raised it to him.

Just then, Tang Xu's phone, which was on the table, suddenly rang.

She slightly withdrew her hand, lowered her eyes, and saw a message from an unknown number—

"Yaoyao, it's your mother. Do you have time to meet?"
