Marriage Seduction Addiction

Chapter 70 Yan Shiyu and Miss Qi, what are your feelings?
Xu Nianwan didn't expect Jiang Muchen to ask her that question, and she was even more surprised that Jiang Muchen would smile at her because of that one sentence.

Ever since she got into his car outside the bar, she's been the woman by his side.

More than a month has passed, and this is the fifth time she has seen him.

Every time I saw him, it was in a hotel room, and each time it only lasted two hours.

She had never seen him smile.

But his smile at that moment made her uneasy.

She knew he was angry today; she could tell from his behavior in bed.

Bringing up this sensitive topic now, she suddenly realized she had crossed a line, and after a long silence, she finally answered in a low voice—

"If it were me, I wouldn't do anything to make you angry..."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Muchen's fingers, which were sliding along the corner of her eye, paused slightly.

He stared at her for a long time, then finally withdrew his hand, finished dressing, and left without looking back.

Xu Nianwan heard a "bang" from the doorway before finally returning to bed.

She knew what kind of person he was, and she would secretly search for information about him online. She knew that many women came and went in his life, and she also knew that the shelf life of women for him was very short, some even lasting only a day or two.

She seemed to be the exception.

She didn't know why, and she didn't dare to ask.

Compared to the women he had been with before, she was nothing.

Therefore, she never has unrealistic dreams.

Less than ten minutes later, her phone rang. She picked it up and saw a notification of a deposit.

He is very generous.

After each time, she always received a amount exceeding her expectations.

This is enough.

……

After leaving the hotel, Jiang Muchen drove in silence, and before he knew it, he had arrived at Jiang Wanning's building.

Looking up, one could vaguely make out the light coming from her window.

He personally arranged all the furniture in her house, and he knew exactly what kind of light the lamps he had personally chosen would emit.

But at first, she almost never turned on the lights.

She often immerses herself in darkness for long periods of time, as if her world were devoid of light.

I don't know when it started, but she seemed to accept it, adapt to it, and finally gradually returned to a normal life.

But their relationship grew more distant and colder day by day.

At that very moment, he was sitting downstairs from her, but he had almost no desire to go upstairs to see her.

Because I know that even if we meet, we won't have much to say to each other.

His daily care and pity were no longer a necessity in her life.

And all she could do was try to push him away day by day, so that he could live a normal life.

But is it still possible for him to have a normal life?

Jiang Muchen's car was parked downstairs at Jiang Wanning's building all night.

The next morning, Tan Siyi called and woke him up. Upon hearing his location, Tan Siyi quickly arrived, got into the driver's seat, and drove him back to his residence to shower and change.

Watching Jiang Muchen go upstairs, Tan Siyi sat quietly in the car for a long time before finally making a phone call.

"Mr. Jiang." He called out softly as the call connected, "Mr. Jiang is not feeling well. He sat downstairs at Ms. Jiang's place all night."

Jiang Beiheng only replied with one sentence on the phone: "I understand."

……

Since the divorce case entered the waiting process, Tang Xu has felt much more relaxed.

The criticism she faced from the outside world subsided after a while. After all, there are so many new things happening every day, and no one wants to waste too much attention on an old news story.

As May arrived, everyone's attention on social gossip was successfully taken over by another high-society scandal.

The reason was that the band of Qi Mingyi, the daughter of a wealthy family in Jiangcheng, came to Huai City to perform. As the first stop of their global tour, the performance in Huai City was a great success and received a lot of attention.

It was precisely because of this that someone photographed Yan Shiyu attending the performance, and someone else photographed the flower basket that Yan Shiyu presented to Qi Mingyi to wish him a successful performance...

Several pictures circulated repeatedly online and were widely reported by various media outlets. For a time, rumors spread like wildfire that two prominent families from two cities were about to get married.

People are talking about it with great interest. Some discuss the handsome man and beautiful woman, some lament the marriage of two wealthy families, and others are concerned about the future development of the two families.

Amidst this media frenzy, Tang Xu remained as busy as ever, going to work, studying, and working overtime every day, occasionally meeting with industry veterans to learn from their experiences.

That night, she worked overtime at the company until 10 p.m. On her way home, she remembered that she had a dinner party the next day, so she called the winery owner on the spur of the moment to order a case of wine and picked it up on her way home.

Unexpectedly, they met Duan Siwei, who was drinking alone, at the winery.

Upon seeing her, Duan Siwei immediately raised an eyebrow with a gossipy air, "Oh, I didn't see wrong, did I? Jiang... oh no, perhaps it would be more appropriate to call you Miss Tang. Is Miss Tang here to ambush someone?"

"Why is Mr. Duan drinking alone here?" Tang Xu ignored his question and simply asked a question.

"I got stood up," Duan Siwei said with a smile, glancing at her. "Guess who stood me up? And why?"

His question was so obvious that it would be difficult for Tang Xu not to know the answer.

“If someone like Mr. Duan stands someone up, it must be because they have something more important to do,” Tang Xu said. “Since we’re friends, I’m sure Mr. Duan won’t mind.”

Duan Siwei frowned as he listened. "It's no fun chatting like this... We're all in the same boat, come and sit down."

Tang Xu didn't really feel like she was a destitute person, but since he had already spoken, she still sat down on the sofa next to him.

"Let me interview you privately. How do you feel about him getting so close to that Miss Qi?"

Tang Xu just stared at the wine in front of him and asked, "How's this wine? Is it good? If it is, I'll take a case."

Duan Siwei was overjoyed. "That was such an abrupt change of topic. What, you really don't want to talk about him?"

He repeatedly tried to steer the conversation towards Yan Shiyu, but Tang Xu remained unresponsive, simply asking, "May I try a bite?"

"Go ahead and try it," Duan Siwei said. "Drink as much as you want. After all, some things are easier to say when you're drunk."

Tang Xu took a glass and poured out a thin layer of wine, but Duan Siwei directly raised the bottom of the bottle for her and poured a large glass.

"Drink more," he said with a smile.

Tang Xu couldn't drink alcohol quickly, so she only took a small sip.

Looking at her, Duan Siwei suddenly sighed and said, "Actually, I understand how you feel. You were already trapped in an unhappy marriage, and you finally met someone who seemed like a god descending from heaven, helping you time and time again. But then, he started talking about marriage with another woman. How could you not feel disappointed?"

Tang Xu looked up at him. "So, they really are developing a relationship, right?"
