Marriage Seduction Addiction

Chapter 399 Merging into One

The next day, around noon, Tang Xu woke up from her somewhat hazy sleep. When she opened her eyes, she was alone in the room again.

The bed next to her was still cold, indicating that Yan Shiyu had obviously been up for a long time.

It was as if the scene from the early hours of the morning was playing out again, but now it was broad daylight outside. Tang Xu's mind was still a bit confused, and she sat on the bed in a daze for a while before getting up and going to the terrace.

A chilling aura instantly swept over her, making her more alert.

There was no one outside. Tang Xu stood quietly for a moment, then turned around and went back into the room, picking up her phone.

When she opened it, she found that he had silenced her phone again at some point. Lu Xingyan had called her twice that morning, but she hadn't answered.

As Tang Xu walked toward the restroom, she called Lu Xingyan back.

This time, however, it was Lu Xingyan who didn't answer the phone.

Tang Xu waited for a moment before finally hanging up the phone. Looking up at her lonely reflection in the mirror, she felt as if she had been abandoned by the whole world.

Fortunately, after washing my face, I felt more awake, and that feeling of melancholy and sadness disappeared without a trace.

She was always pragmatic and rarely showed such self-pitying emotions.

Perhaps it's because of the emotional fluctuations that occurred in the early hours of the morning that my mind is still somewhat unsettled.

When Yan Shiyu first proposed marriage, she had no idea how to respond and could only try her best to refuse with reasonable words.

Last night, he proposed to her for the second time, and she agreed without hesitation.

Because she knew in her heart that Yan Shiyu was not the only one who was afraid and panicked.

And her.

She knew that Yan Shiyu was hiding something from her, but she didn't know what it was, and her past experience made her hesitant to press him for details.

She could only follow her instincts and her heart, trying to get closer and closer to him, ideally to become one with him completely.

That way, he'll probably have some reservations about doing anything he wants to do, right?
After a quick wash, Tang Xu finally left the small building and headed towards the restaurant.

She didn't know where Yan Shiyu was, but she didn't intend to look for him deliberately.

Yesterday, the two of them were together almost every moment. She successfully brought out his true panicked emotions, and he no longer dared to move forward recklessly.

Perhaps he also needs some space and time.

Tang Xu was willing to give him that time and space.

Besides, this is a vacation spot after all, and with Fu Jiali here, Yan Shiyu has plenty of places to go, so there's no need to stay with her all the time.

Tang Xu pushed open the restaurant door and unexpectedly saw Hua Fanxing.

Hua Fanxing looked like she had just gotten up. She was wearing a shawl and standing next to the automatic coffee machine, rubbing her temples as she poured herself a cup of coffee.

Hearing the door open, Hua Fanxing turned around and saw Tang Xu. She smiled brightly as usual, "We met again at the restaurant, Miss Tang. Are you alone?"

"Yes," Tang Xu stepped forward. "Miss Hua, did you just get up too?"

Hua Fanxing nodded, then asked her, "Would you like coffee?"

Tang Xu nodded to indicate that she wanted it, and Hua Fanxing picked up a glass and poured her a glass as well. Then she said, "I'm just jet-lagged and not used to it. What about you, Miss Tang? Is it because Mr. Yan and I were chatting here last night that you felt uncomfortable and didn't get any sleep?"

Tang Xu reached for the freshly brewed coffee, then turned to look at her. "Is Miss Hua always this direct?"

Hua Fanxing shrugged and said with a smile, "I just don't want Miss Tang to misunderstand. If she really can't sleep because of this, it's not worth it."

"Don't worry," Tang Xu said, "It has nothing to do with you."

The two walked to the dining table and sat down while talking. Hua Fanxing stared at Tang Xu for a while and then smiled and said, "Since Miss Tang says it has nothing to do with me, then I believe you. It's obvious that Miss Tang and Mr. Yan have a very good relationship."

Tang Xu lowered her eyes slightly, and when she looked up again, she asked directly, "And you? When did you meet him?"

“Me?” Hua Fanxing smiled. “I didn’t know Mr. Yan before. This is the first time we’ve met since I came here.”

Her answer was so sincere that Tang Xu couldn't find a single reason to doubt her. "I'm sorry, because he doesn't usually interact with strangers, I assumed you two already knew each other," Tang Xu said.

Hua Fanxing said, "Is that so? I heard that Mr. Yan is a very upright and considerate person, and he is gentle and polite to everyone, so that's why I chatted with him."

Upon hearing this, Tang Xu simply smiled faintly and said, "People always have multiple facets."

Hua Fanxing said, "Then it seems that what Miss Tang knows is the real side. I believe Miss Tang is definitely right."

Tang Xu looked at her and said, "So I'm surprised you said you don't know each other."

"Then it seems I was indeed presumptuous. I hope I haven't caused you any trouble, Miss Tang." Hua Fanxing clinked her coffee cup against Tang Xu's.

Tang Xu paused for a moment, then obediently picked up her coffee and took a sip, thus putting aside the events of the previous night.

"Where is Mr. Yan? Why didn't he come down with Miss Tang?" Hua Fanxing asked again.

"I don't know," Tang Xu said. "He was already gone when I woke up. He must have gone to travel around."

Hua Fanxing chuckled softly upon hearing this, "The person has disappeared, isn't Miss Tang going to look for them?"

"Anyway, he won't get lost," Tang Xu said. "Whether we look for him or not, he'll eventually show up."

Hua Fanxing said, "Miss Tang is so young, yet she is very open-minded about relationships."

Upon hearing such a comment, Tang Xu simply smiled faintly and said, "Miss Hua is so young, yet she speaks as if she has experienced countless trials."

Hua Fanxing took a sip of coffee, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Seeing more is a kind of experience, isn't it?"

After listening, Tang Xu remained silent for a while before slowly saying, "With more experience, one gradually becomes more open-minded."

Upon hearing this, Hua Fanxing's gaze lingered on Tang Xu's face for a long time, but in the end she just smiled faintly and said nothing more.

……

After finishing their meal at the restaurant, Yan Shiyu still hadn't returned. Tang Xu took a walk around the area alone, which was how she finally got a proper look at this secluded hot spring resort.

The hot spring pool, nestled deep within the resort, offers excellent privacy while providing stunning views of the distant green mountains and snow-capped peaks, offering a completely different experience compared to indoor hot spring pools.

If one could change their mindset and truly enjoy the beautiful scenery of the hot springs, it would probably be an extremely blissful experience.

Unfortunately, Tang Xu was unable to immerse herself in the moment.

She squatted by the pool, casually swirling her hand in the hot spring water a few times, when her phone suddenly rang.

Tang Xu withdrew her hand, took out her phone, saw Lu Xingyan's name, and quickly answered the call.

“What are you doing? I called you but you didn’t answer. I thought you’d been kidnapped and gone missing in the deep mountains!” Lu Xingyan said.

Hearing his strong and spirited tone, Tang Xu couldn't help but ask, "Is there some good news you want to tell me?"

Lu Xingyan paused, and when she spoke again, the excitement in her voice was hard to hide: "We just accompanied Kimi to have a minor surgery together."

"You two?" Tang Xu asked in surprise. "You two mean...you and her?"

"What do you say?"

Tang Xu couldn't help but feel surprised. "You mean, after you gave her a good scolding, instead of completely blocking you, she accompanied you and Kimi to have the surgery?"

“At first, she ignored me too,” Lu Xingyan said. “I didn’t have much hope when I told her that Kimi was going to have surgery, but she actually came… Although she still didn’t talk to me much, she was willing to come and stay with Kimi, and she didn’t leave until Kimi’s surgery was over. Do you know what that means?”

In other words, after Lu Xingyan scolded Ji Yan, instead of pushing her away, he miraculously brought the two of them closer.

Lu Xingyan excitedly recounted all the details of what had happened that day, vividly describing every word she uttered and every glance she gave.

Hearing his barely suppressed excitement, Tang Xu couldn't help but smile broadly as well.

In any case, this is the best thing that has happened recently.

Therefore, Tang Xu listened with great interest and did not even notice the person coming from behind him.

It wasn't until Yan Shiyu slowly walked up behind her that she finally heard his footsteps. The moment she turned around, she met the man in front of her with her brightest smile.
