Marriage Seduction Addiction

Chapter 62 Do you want me to leave, or do you want me to stay?

Tang Xu pursed her lips and touched the tip of her nose.

The next moment, they blatantly began to lie.

"It's not dusty, it's moldy."

The word "moldy" is practically a fantasy in Huai'an during the spring.

Yan Shiyu said, "Really? Then I'd like to see for myself."

Tang Xu quickly stepped aside to avoid him, "It was just a cheap item that cost a dozen yuan, so it's normal for it to get moldy. Besides, the weather is getting warmer and it won't fit anymore... I'll take it down and throw it away."

As she spoke, she slipped past Yan Shiyu and entered the elevator.

Yan Shiyu remained standing at the door. After about a minute, he walked to the elevator, pressed the button, and looked at Tang Xu, who was standing motionless in the elevator car.

When the elevator doors reopened, she seemed to snap out of her daze, looked up at the man standing outside, and stared blankly for two seconds before realizing that she hadn't pressed the floor button.

But she didn't move.

The two stood inside and outside the door, just looking at each other.

After a moment, Tang Xu looked at him and finally spoke in a low voice: "The slippers weren't moldy. I just thought you wouldn't come up here again, so I wanted to throw them away."

Yan Shiyu's gaze was calm as he looked at her. "Now that I'm up here, what should I say?"

Tang Xu pouted, stepped out of the elevator, and the next moment, threw the bag of trash into his arms.

In the end, the bag of trash was brought back into the house and placed quietly in the entryway along with Yan Shiyu's leather shoes.

The sound of running water filled the bathroom, and the small shower room was filled with steam and the warmth and sounds of the two people.

Tang Xu felt as if she had been in another world.

He left Huai City and disappeared without a trace for a month;

After he returned, he seemed like a different person, no longer showing any affection for her...

It really has been a long time.

Even the space between our lips and teeth seemed unfamiliar.

Yan Shiyu's kiss was very light, a lightness Tang Xu had never experienced from him before, so unfamiliar that she didn't know how to respond.

Until I heard his deep voice—

"Open your mouth."

She did as she was told.

Everything gradually became familiar.

Those things, both strange and familiar, long-lost yet still fitting, seemed to have finally found the right direction, and unconsciously, each sought out a source of comfort...

Except for the roughness between his fingertips.

It has clearly faded a lot.

Yet, she remains the most abrupt and unfamiliar presence in this affair.

……

When they returned to bed from the bathroom and finally calmed down, Tang Xu's hand was still clasped with his.

She was still unconsciously stroking his fingertips.

He seemed to have recovered, both physically and mentally, and was back to the way she knew him.

The only thing that proves he has changed is the slight roughness remaining between his fingers.

Tang Xu was curious, but didn't ask. She just leaned against him, lost in thought in silence.

Yan Shiyu could see her movements as soon as he lowered his eyes.

Perhaps she was unaware of it, but Yan Shiyu still asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Tang Xu's thoughts returned instantly, and all those previous daydreams vanished into the depths of distant memory, leaving no trace.

"It's nothing..." Tang Xu murmured in response.

Yan Shiyu glanced at her again, then slowly withdrew his hand. Tang Xu snapped back to reality and turned to look at him. "Are you leaving?"

Yan Shiyu only looked down at her, "Do you want me to leave, or do you want me to stay?"

Tang Xu then realized that he had only moved his hand, not his body.

Perhaps at that moment, he didn't intend to leave.

But Tang Xu knew in his heart that he couldn't stay here overnight.

Her presence at Qiushuitai might be inconspicuous, but his appearance here is still too abrupt.

Tang Xu didn't answer, but simply looked up and kissed him.

For her, it was just a subconscious action.

But for Yan Shiyu, it felt more like an invitation.

Yan Shiyu looked down and met her gaze for a moment, then reached out and supported the back of her head.

They ended up kissing again.

Tang Xu wondered if it was because of her lack of experience, but she always felt that he was very good at kissing and could easily make people infatuated with his kisses.

And whatever happens after that is entirely under his control.

But this time, he just kissed her, and kissed her for a long time...

……

When Yan Shiyu left, it was already four in the morning.

Tang Xu lay on the bed, not wanting to move at all. Hearing the sound of him leaving, she quickly fell asleep.

When Tang Xu woke up the next morning, she remembered the bag of trash from the day before. When she went to the entrance, it was gone.

Yan Shiyu even has a habit of helping people throw away their trash.

Good.

After washing up, Tang Xu made herself a cup of coffee and sat on the sofa, staring blankly at the TV.

In the past few months, I was always busy as soon as I opened my eyes, and it seemed like I never had a moment of leisure. Now that I have some free time, I feel a little lost.

Just as Tang Xu was lost in thought, her phone suddenly rang.

Tang Xu glanced at the screen and quickly answered the phone.

On the other end of the phone was Huang Cunzhong, an experienced driver from Fengzheng Freight Company. Tang Xu had specifically left his phone number with him when he visited the freight company last time.

“Ms. Tang, I know Mr. Song just passed away not long ago, and you must be very sad. But we can’t just ignore the company’s affairs, can we? We were all touched by what you said when you came to the company last time, and we are very grateful to you… But how can company policies change so frequently? How are we, the employees, supposed to work?”

After finishing the call, Tang Xu quickly changed her clothes and went out to the freight company.

When she arrived, she discovered that after she handed over the management of Song's company, someone else was sent from above to take over the management of Fengzheng. However, this person treated policies as a joke, made decisions haphazardly, and caused chaos in the company in just a few days.

Tang Xu went to the office and met the new manager.

The other party claimed to be a relative of the Qin family and was extremely rude to Tang Xu.

"Song Yuting is gone. Do you even know what the company's name is now? It's Qin! Besides, you're not surnamed Song either. What right do you, surnamed Tang, have to boss me around?"

Hearing this, Tang Xu knew there was no need to say anything more to him. She reassured Huang Cunzhong and the others, assuring them that she would definitely provide a solution and put their minds at ease.

After leaving the freight company, Tang Xu called Qin Yun and asked her to meet him.

On the way, she thought for a moment and then called Gao Yan again to ask him if he knew anything about the progress of the economic case involving the Song family.

Since Song Yuting's death, Tang Xu has handed over the management of the company to the Qin family, adopting a "what's the use" attitude and no longer showing any concern for it.

She didn't actually know whether Gao Yan was still involved in these matters.

However, when the call connected, Gao Yan told her, "Mr. Duan just told me that the matter is almost resolved, so don't worry."

Tang Xu was taken aback. "Are you and Mr. Duan still busy with this matter?"

“Otherwise what?” Gao Yan said, “Mr. Yan gave a firm order, so this matter must be resolved properly.”

It's been a difficult time resuming updates, and this chapter is a bit short. I'll make up for the rest in later chapters.
