Marriage Seduction Addiction

Chapter 315 She Didn't Give Up on Him
Tang Xu knew she was probably going crazy.

She knew that her chance to escape was hard-won, she knew how many challenges awaited her in the outside world, and she also knew what kind of situation she would find herself in once she returned.

In fact, as she drove onto the highway, she had only one thought in her mind—

Go back, go back to the real world.

This is more important than anything else.

But at some point, her thoughts began to drift away from her own control.

All she could think about was him.

Thinking back on the past, when there weren't so many barriers between us, those were still sweet times.

He remembered how she schemed against him, how he saved her from danger time and time again, and how he helped her time and time again;

She remembered his promise to her that he would protect her father;
I remember when she was injured and hospitalized, I had only one night, but I still rushed to Jiangcheng to see her.
She recalled his repeated silences and his repeated attempts to seek comfort from her.
I remember him saying, "You're destined to be entangled with me for the rest of your life."

I also remembered him saying, "Yaoyao, don't give up on me."

……

She had already wiped away her tears at the highway exit, but she couldn't control herself and burst into tears again.

She resented him, blamed him, and hated him.

But despite all he went through and endured, he never truly gave up on her.

Even in the most excruciating pain, his choice was to hurt himself, not her...

She knew his state of mind, and she knew that he was in extreme danger in that state.

But even under those circumstances, the greatest pain he inflicted on her was nothing more than a bite mark on her shoulder…

Now, he is fighting alone in the darkness, suffering agonizing pain.

And she just abandoned him like that, running away alone...

At that moment, Tang Xu actually hated herself.

I hate myself for being cold-hearted, ruthless, and decisive.

But I hate myself even more... My heart aches and I can't control myself.

I know I shouldn't.

I know it's wrong.

But she eventually turned the car around.

We returned to the cabin.

She held him in her arms, and at that moment, she could no longer hold back.

The pent-up repression, confusion, and layers of intertwined pain and despair of the past few days finally erupted at this moment.

She seemed to be crying for him, but more than that, it seemed like she was crying for herself.

She once thought there was nothing in this world that she couldn't let go of, and that as long as she dealt with Meng Liancheng, she could leave without any worries.

But reality eventually woke her up.

She ultimately couldn't let go.

Even after all that has happened and she has gone through so much, she still... couldn't let go.

In the darkness, Tang Xu's cries echoed throughout the room, and there was no other sound.

Until a very, very long time later...

She finally heard Yan Shiyu's voice.

He is laughing.

Although his voice was hoarse, as if it came from hell, he was really laughing.

At the same time, he slowly raised his drooping hands and gently embraced the person in his arms who was crying uncontrollably, holding them very tightly...

She finally came back.

She did not give up on him.

Even after seeing him in his monstrous appearance, she was still willing to hug him.

very nice……

……

It was a bizarre night filled with bloodshed, weeping, and laughter.

Fortunately, the building is located in a remote area and no one passes by, otherwise they would most likely be scared out of their wits by such an atmosphere.

The lights in the small building didn't come back on until after midnight.

Tang Xu stopped crying, found a first-aid kit, and prepared to treat the wound on his hand.

However, seeing Tang Xu bring over the medicine box, Yan Shiyu's eyes darkened, and he subtly hid his bloodied hands behind his back—

He then stood up, ready to take the medicine box, saying, "I can do it myself."

Tang Xu reached out and pressed the first-aid kit, looking at him, "Why? Can't I help you?"

“I can do it much faster myself,” Yan Shiyu replied.

"What?" Tang Xu glanced out the window. "Mr. Yan, are you in a hurry here?"

In one sentence, he successfully silenced Yan Shiyu.

Tang Xu could tell what he was thinking, so she forcibly pulled his hand over and, after seeing the wounds and bloodstains clearly up close, even though she had already become indifferent to life and death, Tang Xu's heart still couldn't help but clench for a moment.

It felt like someone was squeezing her tightly; the pain was so intense that she forgot to breathe. Yan Shiyu kept his eyes fixed on her, watching every reaction on her face, waiting for her to ask something.

But in the end, Tang Xu didn't ask anything. She just took out the medicine, bent down, and carefully cleaned each of his wounds before applying the medicine.

The whole process lasted a long time.

It must hurt a lot.

But Yan Shiyu didn't utter a sound from beginning to end.

Tang Xu was focused on the wound in front of her and did not look up at him.

After the wound was treated, she rummaged through the first-aid kit but couldn't find any gauze. Finally, she looked up and asked, "Don't you have any gauze?"

“No need for that,” Yan Shiyu said.

Tang Xu looked down at the almost terrifying hands in front of her, paused for a moment, and then said in a low voice, "This is not good for the wound to heal... It still needs more professional treatment."

"No need," Yan Shiyu said calmly and in a composed tone. "It will be fine soon."

Tang Xu suddenly looked at him again.

Such certainty and nonchalance suggest that this state of mind has become the norm for him.

She suddenly remembered when he was injured in the past.

Yes, even after suffering such severe injuries before, he was able to recover quickly in a short period of time.

At that time, she marveled at his absolute control over his body and felt sorry for his body, which had begun to adapt to this recurring pain.

Looking back now, it feels like a lifetime ago, yet it has successfully awakened my memories...

Just like everything that happens on the road today...

Just thinking about it made Tang Xu's eyes burn with desire again.

She looked up at him. "Once your hand is healed, let's go back to Huai City, okay?"

Yan Shiyu calmly met her gaze, and after a long while, he simply said, "It's getting late, you should get some rest."

……

Tang Xu knew that Yan Shiyu wouldn't easily give in on this matter.

She knew what he was running away from, what he was afraid of...

In his life, there was no burden heavier than revenge, yet now, he could even cast that aside...

This shows the extent of his fear.

But ultimately, we still have to face it.

How can we deal with something that has already happened by escaping it like this?
Some things are perhaps ordained by fate.

The next day, Tang Xu discovered that the car in the yard wouldn't start.

She bumped the front of her car when she left yesterday, and when she came back, she parked it in the yard with the engine running. In the end, she not only ran out of gas, but also drained the battery.

At this moment, the car stood there, just like a piece of scrap metal.

The food supplies in the refrigerator can only last for two days at most.

Despite this situation, Yan Shiyu still did not budge.

Since Tang Xu had already expressed his opinion, there was no need to hide it any longer, so he said to him, "Even if you still want to stay here, you still need to make a living, right? It's so far from town, and in the current situation, you can't just walk for hours to buy things and then walk back, can you? If it really comes down to it, go to the village and borrow a phone to call Gao Yan and ask him to send some things over..."

Upon hearing this suggestion, Yan Shiyu suddenly turned around and looked at her.

Tang Xu instantly saw the emotions hidden in his eyes, reached out and grasped his arm, "Even if Gao Yan attracts attention and it's inconvenient for him to come, as long as we contact him, he'll definitely handle these issues. He's been with you for so many years, surely he has this much ability to do things? I'll find a phone and call him, okay? Or... will you come with me?"

Yan Shiyu simply stared at her without saying a word.

Seeing this, Tang Xu added, "Alright, even if we don't contact them, it wouldn't hurt to go and visit the village, right? After all, we're short on supplies right now, and we might need to ask for help at any time. It's only right to scout things out first, isn't it? Besides—"

At this point, Tang Xu suddenly stopped and did not continue.

It wasn't until Yan Shiyu asked her, "What are you saying?"

Tang Xu then continued, "Besides, everything you make tastes the same. After a few days, I really don't want to eat it anymore. Let's go find something else to eat..."

After saying all this, which could be described as a combination of coaxing and deception, Yan Shiyu was finally pulled out of the small building.

However, Tang Xu knew that he could not persuade Yan Shiyu with his words no matter what.

Only he himself could convince him.

But it's clear that he still hasn't convinced himself, yet he's still willing to go out with her.

That's because he was also trying to appease her.

He even knew perfectly well that once they reached a populated area, Tang Xu would likely find an opportunity to contact Gao Yan or someone else...

But he eventually agreed.

When there seems to be no way out, perhaps, in the end, we will still have to face it...

The two walked along the path in front of the door, but after only a short distance, they suddenly saw a black SUV speeding towards them from afar, kicking up a cloud of dust before abruptly stopping in front of them.

Immediately afterwards, Gao Yan, his eyes filled with surprise and worry, got out of the car and came to the two of them.

Despite having driven there, Gao Yan was now panting heavily, his eyes instantly reddening with emotion. He looked at Yan Shiyu, then at Tang Xu, and when he spoke, his throat tightened with emotion, "Mr. Yan... Tang..."

He could only utter these few words before he was unable to make a sound.

When Tang Xu saw him, she was equally astonished. "How did you get here?"

She hadn't even contacted him yet, so why did he find his way here?

She turned to look at Yan Shiyu, and after meeting her gaze, Yan Shiyu slowly turned back to Gao Yan, his eyes calm and undisturbed, as if he had already anticipated this situation.
