Marriage Seduction Addiction

Given the Qi family's status in Jiangcheng, the marriage of Qi Mingyi, the only precious daughter of Qi Tai and his wife, is undoubtedly something that everyone will be paying attention to.

The fact that Yan Shiyu, who was of similar age, family background, and even appearance, traveled from the distant Huai City to attend this banquet undoubtedly foreshadowed something.

Therefore, almost everyone present focused their attention on Yan Shiyu, who arrived late.

Tang Xu was unwilling to be an exception in such a situation.

How could she not pay attention to something that everyone else is concerned about?

The line between being unconventional and having a guilty conscience is very thin.

Tang Xu had no interest in attempting this kind of side jump.

Yan Shiyu and Qi Mingyi walked side by side, nodding and smiling in response to the gazes of the guests present, as they approached Qi Tai and his wife.

Such a pair of top-tier figures are so dazzling that it's impossible not to notice them.

For a moment, Tang Xu even recalled the scene when Yan Shiyu first appeared in public—

It was only a little over a year ago, but it feels like a long time has passed.

However, this man seemed no different.

Still upright and bright, still the focus of everyone's attention.

It still has nothing to do with her.

Good.

Tang Xu withdrew her gaze and turned her head, only to meet Yu Muyao's gaze once again.

For a moment when she turned around, Yu Muyao's gaze seemed somewhat unfocused, but it quickly returned to normal after Tang Xu turned around completely.

Tang Xu felt that Yu Muyao wasn't looking at her, but rather seeing someone else through her.

So, she happens to resemble a certain type of person in some way?

Is this the reason why Meng Liancheng chose her to come here?
Tang Xu had many questions in her mind and urgently needed answers.

Therefore, she put aside her distracting thoughts and took the initiative to speak: "Mr. Yu, you seem to be in a bad mood?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Muyao twitched the corner of his mouth and looked at her again, "Is this a rhetorical question you already know the answer to?"

Tang Xu paused for a moment, then answered truthfully, "That's why I asked, but not because I knew the answer. To be honest, before this, I knew nothing about Mr. Yu." "And now?" Yu Muyao asked, "What do you want to know?"

“The more the better,” Tang Xu said.

"And then what? What do you want from me?"

Tang Xu remained calm and slowly said, "I have some questions about certain things and want to satisfy my curiosity."

Yu Muyao's gaze remained indifferent as he looked at her. "What does your curiosity have to do with me? Not everything in the world revolves around you. Some questions are destined to have no answers."

"The world has never revolved around me." Tang Xu chuckled softly, then said, "So, if you want to know the answer, I will try my best to find it myself."

"Then I wish you good luck." Yu Muyao seemed to have lost patience, leaving behind this sentence before getting up and walking away.

Tang Xu was left sitting there alone, clearly having been rebuffed, yet still remaining composed.

A short while later, Meng Liancheng returned with two glasses of wine, placing one in front of Tang Xu. "It seems you and Mr. Yu didn't have a very pleasant conversation?"

“I know nothing about Mr. Yu, and I really don’t know how to make him happy,” Tang Xu said. “You haven’t given me any information, yet you’re trying to get me to help you achieve your goal. Mr. Meng, aren’t you having too much faith in me?”

Meng Liancheng chuckled and then said, "You're a smart girl. You know exactly what to do and what to say. I have a lot of confidence in you."

Tang Xu turned and stared at him for a moment, then suddenly stood up, picked up the cigarette case on the table in front of her, and walked into the room.

Inside the hall, Qi Tai and his wife were surrounded by lively activity.

Yan Shiyu had already greeted Qi Tai and his wife, and at this moment, he turned to talk to other people who were interested in him.

He tilted his head slightly, listening to what a short old man was saying. He then looked up and saw Tang Xu walking in from the outdoor garden.

Tang Xu walked towards the direction he was in.

Yan Shiyu followed her calmly the whole way.

In the end, Tang Xu walked straight past him and headed to a spot behind him.

Yu Muyao was sitting there fiddling with his phone.

Tang Xu stepped forward slowly and placed the cigarette case in front of him. "Mr. Yu, you forgot your cigarettes." (End of Chapter)
