Marriage Seduction Addiction

Chapter 97 Does that person know you're in trouble?

Tang Xu didn't wake up until almost noon the next day.

The moment she woke up, she was in a daze. Facing the white room, it took her a long time to realize that she was no longer in that dark little house.

And someone nearby was calling her name.

Tang Xu turned his head with some difficulty and saw Jiang Beiheng sitting by his bedside and Ying Jie busy behind him.

She asked, somewhat puzzled, "Dad?"

Jiang Beiheng was clearly relieved to see that she had regained consciousness. He told her to lie down properly while ringing the call bell to summon the doctor.

Soon the doctor came in and gave Tang Xu another comprehensive examination.

Tang Xu has only gradually come to her senses now.

She was actually taken to the hospital.

Who brought her here?

Why were Jiang Beiheng and Ying Jie by her side?

After the doctor finished the examination, he told her, "You are a little dehydrated, but you are much better after the IV drip. Your other vital signs are relatively stable. Is there anything else that is bothering you?"

Tang Xu first slowly shook his head, then suddenly reached out and touched his neck and arms.

Jiang Beiheng immediately understood why she was there and quickly reached out to grab her.

"It's alright," Jiang Beiheng comforted her gently. "Those snakes had their teeth removed; they didn't bite you."

Tang Xu still trembled slightly.

Jiang Beiheng then looked at the doctor, "She seems to be in a state of extreme shock; she's a bit sluggish—"

"It may not be due to being frightened," the doctor said. "After all, staying in a completely dark room for so long will have a negative impact on both physical and mental health... Once she calms down a bit, we will arrange relevant interventions and treatments."

Jiang Beiheng then nodded.

After the doctor left, Yingjie quickly came to the bedside and fed Tangxu the prepared pear juice little by little.

Tang Xu drank a few sips of pear juice, stared at the IV tube in her arm, and finally asked the question that had been on her mind.

“It was Mu Chen who saved you,” Jiang Beiheng said. “You child, you were already in that situation, how could you not think about saving yourself? You even made a phone call but didn’t ask for help. If he hadn’t noticed something was wrong and arrived in time to rescue you, I don’t know how much more suffering you would have endured.”

Tang Xu then remembered.

Yes, Miao Qin did call Jiang Muchen using her phone.

So Jiang Muchen rushed over to save her.

Jiang Muchen... rushed over... and saved her.

Every word in that sentence made her extremely uncomfortable.

Then, Tang Xu sat up with some difficulty, preparing to get out of bed.

Yingjie quickly pressed her down, "What are you trying to do, young mistress?"

"I'm not feeling well, I want to take a shower," Tang Xu said.

"Are you strong enough? Let Sister Ying help you," Jiang Beiheng said.

Tang Xu shook her head. "No need, I can manage on my own."

Even so, Sister Ying still helped her into the bathroom, turned on the hot water, adjusted it to a suitable temperature, and then left.

Tang Xu took a long bath.

Under the waterfall, her mind finally began to clear little by little.

After taking a shower, Jiang Beiheng had already left, leaving only Sister Ying in the ward.

Yingjie went into the bathroom and helped Tangxu tidy up and clean up while saying to her, "When I received the young master's call in the middle of the night yesterday, I was terrified. I rushed to the hospital and found out that something had happened to you." "The young master was very worried about you. When the doctor examined you, he stayed outside the door the whole time. He looked very worried. Since you didn't wake up, he stayed at the hospital the whole time."

"The young master didn't leave until dawn, when the master received the news and rushed over. You know, the father and son don't spend much time together..."

"While you were unconscious, Mr. Tan called several times, constantly asking about your condition..."

Before she could finish speaking, Yingjie's phone rang again.

She glanced at it, then showed the caller ID to Tang Xu before answering the phone.

Tang Xu didn't even see who called her; she only heard Sister Ying happily reply, "She's awake! She's awake! She's fine, she's conscious, and the doctor said all her vital signs are stable..."

Tang Xu remained nestled on the sofa without moving.

After Sister Ying finished her phone call, she came out and said to her, "Now the young master can rest assured."

Tang Xu didn't react to this, but simply asked her, "Do you know where my phone is?"

Yingjie immediately took her phone from the drawer of the bedside cabinet and handed it to her.

Tang Xu took it and glanced at it.

There were only a handful of spam messages, and nothing important or useful.

Tang Xu stared at her phone for a while, hesitating whether to make a call, when Jiang Beiheng returned to the ward.

Tang Xu quickly put away her phone.

Jiang Beiheng saw her actions but pretended not to, only asking her, "Feeling better after the shower?"

"Mmm." Tang Xu nodded in response. "Thank you, Dad, for staying with me."

"Why are you thanking me?" Jiang Beiheng said. "I only received the news at dawn. Thinking about it now, I still feel scared. If Muchen hadn't arrived in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

Tang Xu did not respond.

Jiang Beiheng paused for a moment before continuing, "If you didn't believe he had realized his mistakes and changed his attitude before, you should be able to believe it after last night, right?"

Tang Xu stared at him for a long time before finally nodding. Then, she took out her phone again. "I'll give him a call."

Jiang Beiheng was very happy, "Okay, okay, go ahead and hit me."

Tang Xu quickly dialed the number.

This time, Jiang Muchen answered the phone quickly, his voice still carrying his usual coldness: "Hello?"

“Mr. Jiang,” Tang Xu’s voice was calm, “Thank you for saving me last night. I am truly grateful. I will remember your kindness.”

Upon hearing her words, Jiang Beiheng's smile instantly froze.

At the same time, Jiang Muchen hung up the phone without hesitation.

Tang Xu put down her phone and then smiled at Jiang Beiheng again.

Jiang Beiheng was at a loss for words.

Tang Xu's formal expression of gratitude undoubtedly created distance between them. True intimacy would not require such aloof words.

In other words, she will not forgive Jiang Muchen because of this.

After a long silence, Jiang Beiheng sighed softly and said, "I understand. A three-foot layer of ice doesn't form in a day. He's done many foolish things in the past, and it's not something that can be easily erased. It's alright, there's plenty of time..."

“Dad,” Tang Xu interrupted him, “You’ve been at the hospital all morning, you must be tired. Go back and rest. I’m fine, and there are caregivers at the hospital, so I don’t need Sister Ying to take care of me. Let her go back with you.”

Jiang Beiheng suddenly remembered something, paused, and then said, "You got into trouble this time, and were arrested and detained for so long... Where is that person? Does he know you're in trouble?"

Tang Xu paused for a moment, then answered with certainty, "He knows."

"You know? Then where is he?" Jiang Beiheng asked.

Tang Xu replied, "Because you are here, Father, it is inconvenient for him to appear."
