Marriage Seduction Addiction

Chapter 330 Let go
Upon hearing this question, Yan Shiyu's eyes dimmed slightly, but he simply looked at her without saying a word.

Tang Xu then reached out and gently touched his chest.

"You're hiding something deep inside, something very, very deep, something that makes you unhappy." Her fingertips caressed his face as she spoke softly, "If those things are causing you pain because they're unsolvable, then... why don't you just let them go completely, okay?"

Yan Shiyu reached out and tightly grasped the hand she had placed on his chest. After a long while, he whispered, "What if you can't let go?"

"You have to let go, whether you like it or not," Tang Xu said. "I'm asking you to let go. Can you do it?"

As she said this, Tang Xu's gaze remained gentle, but her expression was serious and firm.

Yan Shiyu looked at her quietly, unable to say a word for a moment.

Tang Xu stared at him quietly for a moment, then suddenly curled her lips into a smile. "You're such a strange person. You weren't happy when we broke up, you weren't happy in Xiaolou, and you're still unhappy now that you're back in Huai City. So can you tell me what I need to do to make you a little happier?"

After a long silence, Yan Shiyu finally spoke again: "Does it matter whether I'm happy or not?"

Now it was Tang Xu's turn to remain silent.

However, her silence was only in her voice; her expression was unambiguous. She slightly bit her inner lip and simply glanced at him.

Something seemed to flash through Yan Shiyu's heart, leaving her feeling inexplicably empty for a moment.

The next moment, he reached out and touched the back of Tang Xu's neck, leaning forward and uncontrollably trying to press her against him.

But Tang Xu raised his hand, blocking the kiss that was about to fall.

"You can't let go, you can't be happy, so I really don't know what else I can do." Tang Xu let out a soft breath and said, "I can't possibly ask you again what's on your mind, can I?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Shiyu froze slightly.

Tang Xu spoke calmly and nonchalantly, "People grow. So many things have happened in the past; I should have learned something. I know now what I should and shouldn't ask. You can't fall into the same pit three times in a row, can you?"

Yan Shiyu immediately understood what she was referring to.

She twice insisted on getting an answer from him.

And the outcome was the same both times.

separate.

So she said she wouldn't ask anymore.

In an instant, it was as if an overwhelming wave of emotions crashed down, tightly enveloping his heart and making it impossible for him to breathe.

He couldn't discern what those emotions were; at that moment, he could only instinctively hold her, kiss her, and desperately plunder her to gain a chance to catch his breath.

Tang Xu clearly sensed that he was in complete disarray.

It's unbelievable.

The man, who could remain calm even in the face of a collapsing mountain, actually lost control because of a few words she said.

Thinking back, those things weighed heavily on my mind, and I could no longer bear the burden.

That's precisely why Tang Xu had to make him let go.

However, at this moment, Tang Xu ultimately did not continue the topic.

As she accepted Yan Shiyu's kiss, she reached out and gently stroked his eyebrows and eyes.

That's enough.

He has already borne enough pain in his more than twenty years of life.

It's time to let go of some things.

...and nothing more was said that night.

The next morning, Tang Xu woke up from her sleep and opened her eyes to find Yan Shiyu already dressed and walking out of the dressing room.

Tang Xu slept fairly well last night, so she didn't know if the man in front of her had tossed and turned all night. She just couldn't tell from his complexion.

Seeing her staring at him with her eyes wide open, Yan Shiyu finally stepped forward, lowered his head and kissed her on the corner of her lips. "It's still early, sleep a little longer."

Tang Xu did not respond, but spoke up as he got up to leave: "Today is Saturday, I'm going back to Yujing Bay this afternoon."

Yan Shiyu paused slightly, and after a moment, he finally replied with just a simple, "Okay."

Saturday is the day Song Luobai goes home after school. Even in the past, Tang Xu would have gone back to Yujing Bay on this day. Moreover, she had been out of contact the previous week, so she had to go back no matter what.

Because she wasn't there, Yan Shiyu simply didn't return to Qiushuitai that night.

It wasn't until noon the next day, after another round of unexpected shareholders' meetings, that Yan Shiyu returned to Qiushuitai.

Tang Xu would naturally not come so early.

Several hours passed, and as the sky began to lighten, a sound finally came from behind.

Yan Shiyu turned around from the sofa, only to see Gao Yan carrying a takeout bag.

Upon seeing Yan Shiyu's expression, Gao Yan felt a sense of foreboding. Fortunately, he had his talisman, so he braced himself and said, "Mr. Yan, Miss Tang instructed me to prepare dinner for you."

Upon hearing this, Yan Shiyu's expression finally changed. "And her?"

Gao Yan's eyes widened slightly. "Miss Tang went to Songshan? Didn't you know? Mr. Fu organized an autumn hunting party, and she said she wanted to go. I thought you knew!"

As soon as the words left his mouth, Gao Yan regretted them.

Yan Shiyu was unaware of Tang Xu's movements, while Tang Xu knew everything... This was truly presumptuous of him.

Gao Yan quickly added, "Mr. Fu is strange. He used to organize these kinds of events on Friday nights, but this time he put them on Sunday... You had already declined his invitations before, so I guess not many people would attend. That's why he dragged Miss Tang along to make up the numbers."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Gao Yan's phone rang.

This was a special ringtone set up by Gao Yan. As soon as he heard it, he perked up. "It's Miss Tang."

He quickly answered the phone after saying that.

"Gao Yan, could you do me a favor? I think I left the riding boots I prepared at home. Could you please go and get them for me, and then call an express delivery service to bring them to Yunlu Manor?"

Upon hearing this, Gao Yan couldn't help but look up at Yan Shiyu, who was sitting on the sofa.

When his phone rang, Yan Shiyu turned around and sat upright on the sofa without moving.

But Gao Yan always felt that he probably wouldn't be able to sit there for much longer.

Therefore, he quickly smiled and said to Tang Xu on the other end of the phone, "Don't worry, Miss Tang, I'll go get it right away and deliver it to you soon."

……

Late at night, Yunlu Mountain Villa.

Fu Jiali is used to organizing these hunting trips, but judging from the dozen or so cars parked in the villa this time, there are indeed not many people here.

Fu Jiali didn't mind. He went for a night ride and returned at the same time as a late-arriving car.

Upon seeing the license plate, Fu Jiali couldn't help but laugh.

After dismounting, staff members came to lead the horse, but Fu Jiali walked over to the car and opened the door for the people inside.

"How strange! Mr. Yan, who always puts work above all else, actually deigned to come so late at night. It is truly my honor."
