Marriage Seduction Addiction

Chapter 96 Take the lead

The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered.

Miao Qin was furious and vented all her anxiety and anger on Tang Xu.

"Why isn't anyone answering the phone? Why isn't he answering your calls!"

Someone behind her reminded her, "Madam Qin, why don't you try again?"

Miao Qin was so angry that her hands were trembling. Upon hearing this, she still dialed the number again, and then stared at Tang Xu like a ghost.

Tang Xu knew perfectly well why she was so angry.

Because they had no other options, after trying various methods to save their only son, they ultimately had to pin their hopes on her.

Even to everyone else, this is utterly absurd.

But they were desperate and would do anything in their time; she was the only option they could take.

Now, what if we find that this path is also blocked?

Tang Xu really wanted to laugh.

The phone rang for a long time, and just as it was about to hang up automatically again, it suddenly... connected.

Everyone heard Jiang Muchen's extremely cold voice on the other end of the phone—

"Hey?"

In an instant, everyone around held their breath and fell silent.

Miao Qin's eyes welled up with tears as she handed her phone to Tang Xu.

Tang Xu stared at Jiang Muchen's name on the screen for a moment, then her gaze slowly moved upwards and landed on Miao Qin's face again.

Miao Qin's face was almost contorted with rage as she mouthed to her: Speak!

Tang Xu stared at her quietly for a moment, then suddenly smiled.

But he still didn't say a single word.

"Tang Xu?" Jiang Muchen's voice came from the other end of the phone again, already tinged with obvious impatience.

Miao Qin gritted her teeth in frustration, suddenly raised her hand, and slapped Tang Xu again.

Tang Xu only let out a faint groan.

But he still didn't say a word.

The call was then disconnected.

Miao Qin stared at the phone that had been hung up, then lunged at Tang Xu like a madwoman, as if she wanted to tear Tang Xu to pieces on the spot.

Tang Xu had no strength left in his body, so he neither dodged nor avoided her, letting her go crazy.

Until he was locked back in that dark room.

At the same time, Tang Xu watched as they turned on the lights and brought the cage full of snakes of all sizes into the room.

The door slammed shut.

The room was plunged into darkness once again.

In the darkness, a sound, low, wet, and sticky, gradually filled the entire black space.

Surround her.

……

"Mr. Yan, we have a signal!"

"Miss Tang's cell phone signal is in a village in the northern suburbs!"

"Miao Qin's cell phone signal is there too!"

The black A8 sped along through the night.

Yan Shiyu drove ahead alone.

Gao Yan's car was already following behind him.

However, after a few intersections, Gao Yan braked suddenly at a red light. When he looked up again, he could only see Yan Shiyu's taillights gradually disappearing into the night.

Staring at the countdown timer on the red light in front of him, Gao Yan couldn't help but frown anxiously.

The light turned green, and no matter how fast he chased after it, he could no longer see Yan Shiyu's taillights.

Until they arrived at the village in the northern suburbs.

Gao Yan suddenly saw Yan Shiyu's car parked by the roadside.

Not far ahead of the car was a brightly lit building with many people around.

From the outside, the two-story building clearly looked abandoned. But at this moment, it was full of people inside and out.

Those outside were clearly local residents who had been alerted by the commotion and had come to see what was happening.

And those inside—

Two minutes later, Gao Yan had the answer.

Because he saw Jiang Muchen.

Jiang Muchen, carrying something, walked out of the crowd and headed towards his car.

Gao Yan didn't see clearly until he got into the car.

That's a person.

A person who was wrapped up tightly.

Who else could it be but Tang Xu?
Gao Yan quickly turned off the engine and headlights, and looked at the car in front of him.

That car was also turned off.

In the darkness, he couldn't see what was happening inside the car.

But he had a strong feeling.

At this very moment, Yan Shiyu sat in that car, silently observing everything before him in the darkness.

A strong sense of unease suddenly welled up in Gao Yan's heart.

Jiang Muchen's car passed by the two vehicles and sped away.

The bustling activity inside and outside the small building continues.

Several people inside the house were arrested and are now squatting outside the building with their heads in their hands, waiting for the police to arrive.

The onlookers were reluctant to leave.

Gao Yan seized the opportunity and was about to get out of the car to check on Yan Shiyu when he saw the car suddenly start and then turn around and drive away.

Gao Yan quickly started his car and followed the other car again, speeding along, but was completely left behind just as he left the village.

This time, Gao Yan didn't rush to chase the car. Instead, he drove steadily and made many phone calls along the way.

However, it wasn't until they returned to Qiushuitai that they finally received some feedback.

Gao Yan hurriedly went upstairs.

Upon entering, one sees Yan Shiyu standing quietly in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing intently at the night outside.

Gao Yan hurriedly reported the relevant information: "It was Qin Jian and his wife who did it. They kidnapped Miss Tang, probably because of Qin Zhaowen's matter. Qin Zhaowen's matter involves the Jiang family, and they probably want to use Miss Tang to make demands on Jiang Muchen, which is why Jiang Muchen rushed there first—"

Before he could finish speaking, his phone rang again. Gao Yan glanced at it and quickly answered the call.

After a brief exchange, he hung up the phone and said to Yan Shiyu, "Miss Tang has fallen unconscious and was taken to the Northern Hospital by Jiang Muchen. The specific details are not yet clear, but we will update you as soon as we have any information."

Yan Shiyu did not respond.

Gao Yan was somewhat worried and couldn't help but step forward, saying, "It should be nothing serious. Miss Tang is so smart, she knows how to protect herself—"

Gao Yan's words came to an abrupt halt.

Because he saw Yan Shiyu's hand.

That hand, which was being controlled so tightly that the veins were bulging, was still trying to conceal its slight trembling.

Gao Yan's expression changed drastically. "How could this be—"

He wanted to go forward, but he involuntarily stopped in his tracks, looking at Yan Shiyu with a look of panic.

Throughout the entire process, Yan Shiyu never looked back at him.

When he spoke again, his voice remained calm: "You go first."

"But--"

"I told you to leave."

Gao Yan stood frozen for a moment, then finally couldn't help but speak up: "Should I make some arrangements? Let me see if there's anywhere we can have a boxing match..."

He was clearly flustered; his thoughts were as chaotic as his words.

"Walk."

This time, Yan Shiyu only uttered one word.

Gao Yan's somewhat flustered gaze sharpened instantly. He glanced at him again, then turned and left without lingering.

Yan Shiyu was left alone, standing by the window for a long time, slowly clenching her trembling hand into a fist.
