Marriage Seduction Addiction

These long-awaited moments of happiness felt like a distant memory to Gao Yan as well.

For both Yan Shiyu and himself, Tang Xu's existence was extremely important.

It feels so good to finally get back on track after such a long time.

What's more, Tang Xu even bought him a shirt as a gift...

Even after the car drove out of Qiushuitai, Gao Yan was still savoring the experience and feeling fortunate.

Yan Shiyu's phone rang, and he answered it.

For a long time before, Yan Shiyu seemed wary of him even when making phone calls. Occasionally, when the two were out together, Yan Shiyu would only respond with the simplest interjections when answering calls. It was because of this that Gao Yan felt increasingly abandoned.

Because he didn't know who Yan Shiyu was talking to on the phone, what the conversation was about, or what Yan Shiyu was planning to do...

But now, this seems to be changing.

He finally gleaned some information from Yan Shiyu's phone call—

He seemed to be meeting someone, and after exchanging a few words, he quickly stated the time and place: "Seven o'clock in the evening, Wangshan."

Upon hearing that the meeting place was "Wangshan," Gao Yan guessed that the person on the other end of the phone must be very important, or that the matter to be discussed that night must be very important, otherwise they wouldn't have arranged to meet at such a secluded club.

In an instant, Gao Yan snapped out of his previous rosy expectations and quickly returned to reality.

Yes, there are still so many problems to solve, it's not time to get carried away yet.

Thinking of this, Gao Yan couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Yan has an appointment to meet someone tonight. Is there anything you need to prepare?"

“No need,” Yan Shiyu replied.

Upon hearing these three words, Gao Yan's mood darkened slightly again.

Just a moment later, Yan Shiyu said, "Be careful, I don't want to be disturbed."

Upon hearing this, Gao Yan quickly looked up and replied, "Understood."

He quickly composed himself, but still didn't forget the current situation. After a pause, he said to Yan Shiyu, "There hasn't been any movement from the Yan family's old residence these past few days."

This statement is by no means an exaggeration.

Since Yan Shiyu disappeared, there has been absolutely no movement from them.

However, this calm is truly unsettling.

After Yan Shiyu suddenly withdrew from the dinner party that day, his subsequent disappearance and return a few days later were all major events, and Old Master Yan should have had no reaction at all.

He should have been furious and punished Yan Shiyu severely—but he did nothing at all.

The calmer the water, the less predictable the storm brewing beneath.

After saying this, Gao Yan eagerly awaited Yan Shiyu's response. However, glancing in the rearview mirror, he saw Yan Shiyu gazing out the window with a somber expression, his demeanor vaguely reverting to the state he had before Tang Xu's absence. Gao Yan's heart tightened slightly. After a moment's thought, his gaze shifted to Yan Shiyu's cuffs, deliberately changing the subject: "Is the guest we're meeting tonight very important? Will you need to change these cufflinks?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Shiyu withdrew his gaze and looked down at his sleeve.

Seeing the little hippo on the mask, I couldn't help but think of her eyes when she spoke—bright, radiant, and playful.

It's just like when they first met.

But when they first met, the person she showed was clearly not her true self.

Since returning from that remote little house, her emotions had undergone a drastic change, and he didn't even dare to investigate the true or false reasons behind it—

Because only he himself knows.

What kind of fear was hidden in his heart...?

……

Not long after Yan Shiyu and Gao Yan left Qiushuitai, Tang Xu also went out.

She first went to the company for a morning meeting, and after that, she left the company and went to the nearby flower market.

After selecting a large number of fresh flowers, we drove to a home decor store in the city and carefully selected seven or eight vases.

While paying the bill, Tang Xu's phone rang. She glanced at the caller ID and quickly answered it.

A slightly languid voice came from the other end of the phone: "Oh, I can finally get through to you on the phone?"

"Sorry, something came up the other day." Tang Xu didn't say much, only asking, "Did you need something from me?"

"I thought that after I cleared the location system from your phone, the other person realized they had been exposed and, in a fit of rage, killed you to silence you..."

The words she used made Tang Xu slightly startled, but she forced herself to calm down and said, "It's alright, it's been resolved."

"That's good." Yu Tianxia clearly wasn't very curious about this. "Now that your matter is resolved, we can talk about mine, right?"

Tang Xu paused slightly, "Could it be that Mr. Yu has come to Huai City again?"

“Bingo!” Yu Tianxia’s voice perked up as she spoke of this. “You absolutely have to have a meal with him, the kind where both of you are in the picture. As for me, as usual, just one photo is enough.”

After listening, Tang Xu couldn't help but let out a soft sigh and said, "Is it going to be another secret trip?"

"Yes," Yu Tianxia answered frankly.

Tang Xu couldn't help but sigh softly before saying, "I'll try my best."

"It's not just 'try,' it's 'definitely'," Yu Tianxia said. "We agreed to help each other, have you forgotten?"

Tang Xu had no choice but to reply, "Understood." (End of Chapter)
