Marriage Seduction Addiction

Chapter 53 He gave so much...

Meanwhile, Jiang Wanning returned to her apartment and the moment she opened the door, she saw Jiang Muchen sitting on the sofa.

Jiang Wanning hadn't seen him for a long time since their argument a few days ago.

I never expected to see Tang Xu today and then see him again; it seems like fate.

Jiang Muchen slowly stood up from the sofa, walked over, and pushed Jiang Wanning to the side of the sofa.

"Where have you been so late?"

Jiang Wanning did not answer.

Jiang Muchen held back for a moment and said, "How long do you intend to keep this up?"

“I never intended to cause trouble for you,” Jiang Wanning said calmly. “Every word I said to you was from the bottom of my heart.”

After a long while, Jiang Muchen finally spoke again: "Go ahead and make a scene, I'll give you time."

He leaned back into the sofa and didn't say anything for a while.

After a long silence, Jiang Wanning finally spoke: "I just ran into Mrs. Jiang."

Jiang Muchen's gaze suddenly turned icy. "What did you say?"

"I've finally met her in person," Jiang Wanning said. "She's really beautiful, no wonder you like her—"

Before she could finish speaking, Jiang Muchen kicked the coffee table in front of him, looking at her with slightly rapid breathing, "What do you want me to do to stop you from overthinking?"

“I’m not overthinking,” Jiang Wanning said. “I just hope you can be honest with yourself—”

Jiang Muchen suddenly stood up, supporting himself on her wheelchair with both hands. "You really want me to prove it to you, don't you?"

Jiang Wanning paused, then immediately reached out and grabbed his sleeve. "Why don't you understand? You don't need to prove anything to anyone. Don't do anything you'll regret—"

Jiang Muchen's eyes were filled with an inscrutable look. He stared at her silently for a long time before speaking in a low voice, "I will let you know what I really think—"

After saying this, Jiang Muchen ignored her struggles, forcefully pressed a kiss to her lips, and got up and left without looking back.

……

When Duan Siwei finally appeared in front of Tang Xu, Tang Xu had already been sitting in the hotel lounge for half an hour.

Duan Siwei walked over slowly, his wet hair casual and messy, looking like he had just taken a shower, but he still looked lazy.

"What happened?" He sat down and looked at Tang Xu, "You look like you've suffered a great tragedy."

Before he arrived, Tang Xu had been somewhat absent-minded. He only snapped out of it when he heard his question and replied, "Not yet."

Duan Siwei turned to the waiter and ordered a drink, then looked at her again, "So, what do you need my help with?"

"It's better to be prepared," Tang Xu said.

Duan Siwei chuckled, tilting his head slightly to examine Tang Xu. "Is Mrs. Jiang always this aware of potential crises? Is that why she approached Yan Shiyu?"

Although it was said in a teasing tone, the sarcasm was quite obvious.

Unexpectedly, Tang Xu readily admitted, "Yes, it's only human nature to be prepared for danger even in times of peace."

Duan Siwei was taken aback when she called him out like that. He turned around and chuckled, "I told him before that women are troublesome, but he just wouldn't listen... So, how are you going to plan ahead?"

“I don’t care about anything else,” Tang Xu said. “I just hope my family won’t be affected.”

Duan Siwei didn't seem to care. "That's all?"

Is it really worth her dragging him out of bed late at night and making a special trip to find him?

"What if we're facing Jiang Muchen?" Tang Xu asked slowly.

Duan Siwei narrowed his eyes slightly, turned his head to take the wine he had just ordered from the waiter, took a sip, and then slowly said, "So what if it's him?" Tang Xu remained silent for a long time before slowly exhaling.

After leaving the hotel, Tang Xu went straight back to the Song family home.

There was no one at home, and Tang Xu was too lazy to go upstairs, so she just stayed on the sofa all night.

So the next morning, when someone knocked on the door, she woke up immediately, sat up from the sofa, and went to the door to open it.

Several uniformed people were standing outside the door; some showed their badges, while others were filming with recorders.

"Are you Tang Xu? We are from the Economic Crime Investigation Division. Last night, someone reported that the Song Group had engaged in irregularities in several projects over the past two years. You are now the legal representative of the company, so please come with us to cooperate with the investigation."

Tang Xu was surprisingly calm. "Then please wait a moment. I'd like to change my clothes, is that alright?"

"can."

Tang Xu invited the group into the house, then turned and went upstairs.

After changing her clothes, Tang Xu quickly went downstairs and left with the investigators.

It took Duan Siwei almost an hour after she left to find out about it.

Duan Siwei cursed directly on the other end of the line and then hung up.

In less than two hours, the news that Tang Xu had been taken away for investigation spread throughout the city.

Reporters rushed to Jiang's company for an interview, hoping to get Jiang Muchen's response to the matter, but only received an extremely official reply from Jiang's public relations department.

We await the results and trust in fairness.

Meanwhile, the Song family also underwent an internal investigation and evidence collection. Lu Xingyan, with a calm face, answered questions while watching Cheng Jin cooperate with the investigators in collecting evidence.

The investigation and evidence collection lasted for several hours, and Cheng Jin and the company's finance personnel were eventually taken away to cooperate with the investigation.

Lu Xingyan couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark: "In all these years, I've never seen an investigation team that is so proactive and efficient."

After saying that, he slammed the door and saw the guest out. He then returned to his office and started making phone calls nonstop.

As evening fell, Duan Siwei finally managed to get Tang Xu out of jail.

Tang Xu avoided the reporters and returned to the Song family home, taking the opportunity to call Lu Xingyan to let her know he was safe.

Before Lu Xingyan arrived, Duan Siwei barged in first, and upon seeing Tang Xu, he immediately launched into a tirade: "No wonder you said that as long as you protect your family, that's all that matters. So you don't consider yourself a member of the Song family at all? Why are you so reckless? Do you know that if something happens to you, it will implicate others?"

Tang Xu calmly invited him to sit down, poured him a glass of water, and then replied, "Because I know I'll be fine."

"You know nothing!" Duan Siwei continued, "Do you know how much effort I put into getting you out? Jiang Muchen is determined to kill you, he has a million ways to do it! Do you think you can turn things around? What did your family do to make him so ruthless?"

Tang Xu had spent the day with the investigation team and didn't look too good, but she smiled gently at this moment, "All I know is that my family did nothing wrong, they are all innocent."

"So what did you do?" Duan Siwei stared at Tang Xu. "You wouldn't... really do what the rumors say, hurt his girlfriend at the time in order to marry him... that's why he hates you so much."

After a moment of silence, Tang Xu slowly said, "You're right about part of it."

Duan Siwei looked at her with a slightly wary gaze. "Which part?"

Tang Xu chuckled softly again, "I married him."

Duan Siwei paused for a moment, then asked, "Is that all?"

"That's all."

That was the only mistake she made.
