Marriage Seduction Addiction

Chapter 325 A sweetheart
The next morning, Yan Shiyu woke up early as usual. When she opened her eyes, she first saw Tang Xu in her arms, and then her peripheral vision fell on a bouquet of flowers behind Tang Xu and on the bedside table.

The vibrant red roses happened to have the same scent as the shampoo she had been using recently. Under the dual allure of sight and smell, Yan Shiyu couldn't help himself and lowered his head to kiss her temple.

The person in his arms reacted immediately to the kiss, opening their eyes to look at him.

Yan Shiyu paused slightly, and before he could react, Tang Xu reached out and intertwined their fingers. With a slightly nasal tone, her first words were: "You still haven't agreed to my request last night... What about Mr. Yu?"

Even though Yan Shiyu's mind was filled with a myriad of thoughts, at this moment, a certain emotion ultimately prevailed—

He had just woken up in his bed, and the first thing that came to his mind, the first person he asked, was another man?
Yan Shiyu did not utter a word, but only moved his body slightly.

Tang Xu thought he was about to get up, so she quickly tugged at him gently.

With this pull, she dragged the man directly onto herself.

Then, as if some kind of binding agent had been used, they became impossible to separate...

Although she was put through another ordeal first thing in the morning, Tang Xu's request finally received a response—

Yu Muyao agreed to take a break to make time for her, enough for a cup of coffee.

Therefore, after Yan Shiyu left for work, Tang Xu quickly got up, tidied herself up, and headed to the hotel coffee shop where she had arranged to meet Yu Muyao.

Yu Muyao got up before dawn to hold a multinational conference with the Australian side, so although Tang Xu didn't arrive until almost ten o'clock, he had just started eating breakfast.

Although Tang Xu was only there on a mission and didn't care about the circumstances of their meeting, she still felt a little apologetic when she saw Yu Muyao having a meal.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Yu, I didn't mean to disturb your meal," Tang Xu said. "Thank you for taking the time to see me despite your busy schedule."

Upon hearing this, Yu Muyao simply said, "Since Miss Tang has gone to Mr. Yan to make an appointment with me, I must give her that courtesy, no matter what."

Tang Xu lowered her eyes slightly. "Then I should thank you even more."

"To him, or to me?" Yu Muyao asked.

Tang Xu smiled. "To you all."

“I dare not compare myself to Mr. Yan.” Yu Muyao put down his knife and fork, took a napkin to wipe his mouth, and then looked at Tang Xu. “After all, in these matters, I am just a tool. Being a tool doesn’t require much effort.”

Hearing this, Tang Xu felt even more embarrassed. "Mr. Yu knows he's just a tool, yet he's still willing to condescend to do so. I should be thanking him even more."

Upon hearing this, Yu Muyao said calmly, "The reason I came here was out of curiosity."

"What are you curious about?"

Yu Muyao stared at Tang Xu, and after a moment of silence, said, "I'm curious why he would go to such lengths for you."

Tang Xu smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "What Mr. Yu wants to know, I also want to know, so I'm sorry, I can't give you the answer."

“Miss Tang, you’ve misunderstood,” Yu Muyao said. “What I’m curious about isn’t your private affairs, but… how he was able to do it.” Even after he said that, Tang Xu still seemed to understand but not quite.

Perhaps realizing that his words were difficult to understand, Yu Muyao took a sip of coffee and continued, "To be honest, when I first met Mr. Yan, I never thought he would be this kind of person. At that time, I thought he was only focused on his career, self-interested, decisive, and single-minded... until Miss Tang appeared."

Tang Xu could only manage an awkward smile.

Yu Muyao said, "I just realized that someone like him could have such persistence and character, and could silently endure and willingly go to such lengths for a woman."

Tang Xu then understood the meaning behind his words.

It was indeed unrelated to anything between her and Yan Shiyu.

What he was curious about was simply why a man could do so much for a woman.

He is curious because he is not that kind of person.

Tang Xu thought of his deceased wife, but dared not mention it easily. He simply said, "Mr. Yu is also a man of deep feeling. How could he not understand?"

"A man of strong emotions?" Yu Muyao repeated these four words slowly, and after a long while, he said in a low voice, "Mr. Yan is. I am really not."

Tang Xu was quiet for a moment before smiling slightly and saying, "Then why did Mr. Yu agree to see me today? Was it just because he made a request to you? If it's not just that, then perhaps it means that Mr. Yu is also a man of feeling. It's just that everyone is trapped in their own life circumstances and can't be carefree... In other words, not everyone has the courage to go crazy."

After listening to Tang Xu's words, Yu Muyao remained silent for a long time with deep eyes, then suddenly tugged at the corners of his lips and chuckled softly.

……

When Tang Xu and Yu Muyao met, Yan Shiyu had already finished a meeting.

When he came out of the conference room, Gao Yan immediately came forward and whispered to him, "Old Master Yan was here just now."

Yan Shiyu slightly raised her eyes, "What brings you here?"

"He offered his condolences to the employees on this floor, but didn't say anything else. When he learned you were in a meeting, he just told you not to disturb him and then left." Gao Yan lowered his voice even further. "I have a feeling that since you've been back for so long and haven't shown your face to him, he's deliberately coming here... to test you?"

Yan Shiyu listened without making any comment and went straight back to his office.

As soon as he returned to his desk, he sensed something was wrong—

The books beside him had been touched.

Seeing that Yan Shiyu's expression was off, Gao Yan quickly explained, "I've been watching him since he came in. He didn't touch anything except those two books."

Yan Shiyu listened but didn't say much, and quietly restored the two books to their original state.

In the end, they couldn't hold back any longer, could they?
