Marriage Seduction Addiction

Chapter 93 A Man Full of Malice

Fu Jiali and Yan Shiyu were originally walking behind the others.

Fu Jiali was whispering something to Yan Shiyu when he suddenly noticed Yan Shiyu's gaze moving forward and then pausing for a moment. So he followed Yan Shiyu's gaze and looked over.

Upon seeing this, Fu Jiali immediately raised an eyebrow. "Oh, isn't this Mrs. Jiang?"

Tan Siyi was about to say something to Tang Xu when she heard the noise behind her, so she immediately turned to the side and stood there.

Several of them had attended the hunting party organized by Fu Jiali before, so Tang Xu had met them all.

Seeing Tang Xu standing with Jiang Muchen's assistant, a little gossip couldn't be contained for a moment.

"It really is Mrs. Jiang! What a coincidence, it's been a long time."

"It's been a while since I've seen you at social events. Have you been very busy lately?"

"Can't you speak properly? If you can't speak properly, don't talk nonsense. It's obvious that they've been busy lately!"

Yan Qianshan and the others walking ahead started teasing Tang Xu, but Tang Xu didn't respond. After simply greeting them, he turned his gaze to the three behind him.

"Mr. Fu. Mr. Yan."

Yan Shiyu was always dignified and composed, while Fu Jiali always had a smiling face.

"It really has been a while since we last met," he said to Tang Xu, then glanced at Tan Siyi beside him and asked curiously, "So, Mrs. Jiang, did you invite Mr. Jiang to dinner here today?"

Tang Xu's gaze lingered on his face for a second.

Fu Jiali appears to be gentle and refined, always smiling and talking, but in reality, he has a sharp eye and harbors malicious intentions.

Tang Xu had already experienced this during the hunting trip.

"No." Tang Xu looked away and glanced at Tan Siyi beside her. "It's just like you guys, we just happened to meet."

"Oh." Fu Jiali responded, smiled and glanced at Yan Shiyu, saying, "I thought you two had made up. Luckily, there was no misunderstanding. It would have been bad if you had said the wrong thing when you saw Jiang Muchen."

Tang Xu couldn't help but glare at him.

Fu Jiali acted as if he hadn't seen him, and turned to ask Tan Siyi, "Where is your Mr. Jiang? It's been a long time, you should say hello."

Tan Siyi smiled slightly, "Unfortunately, Mr. Jiang just left."

Fu Jiali shrugged and said, "That's really unfortunate. If we had come out a few minutes earlier, we might have been able to meet them. But it wouldn't be good either. What if we had come out a few minutes earlier and interrupted Mrs. Jiang and Mr. Jiang's conversation? Wouldn't that have been even more awkward?"

Tang Xu met his sincere smile and gave a fake smile in return. "If everyone considered things as thoughtfully as Mr. Fu, they would probably be exhausted. Also, you can just call me Tang Xu."

She was practically giving him a direct rebuke, but Fu Jiali still smiled and nodded, "Okay, okay, I understand now."

After saying that, he turned to look at Yan Shiyu and said, "In this way, Mr. Yan and Miss Tang will no longer be in a senior-junior relationship... But it doesn't matter, anyway, Mr. Yan has never considered himself an elder, and Miss Tang doesn't seem to be very willing to call him Third Uncle."

He deliberately beat around the bush, which gave Tang Xu a headache. The only thing she could do was to quickly glance at Yan Shiyu when he mentioned her.

Yan Shiyu seemed like an outsider, detached from right and wrong, and when he looked at Tang Xu, his demeanor and eyes were calm.

Tang Xu didn't want to hear Fu Jiali's cryptic and ambiguous words, nor did she want to hear what Tan Siyi was going to tell her about Jiang Muchen.

"Those matters are none of your concern, Mr. Fu. I have other things to attend to, so I'll be leaving now. Please continue your conversation."

After saying this, Tang Xu turned and left.

Behind him, Fu Jiali inevitably became the subject of jokes—

"Fu Jiali, what's wrong with you? Why are you always picking on people's sore spots? They don't like you anymore!"

"Exactly! Why do you have to bring up something you don't want to talk about?" "This guy, whenever he sees a beautiful woman, he just starts talking non-stop!"

Fu Jiali laughed and said, "I just thought she was funny before, so I said a few more words. I never thought it would scare her away—"

After saying that, he suddenly seemed to realize something and looked at Tan Siyi, "Don't misunderstand, I didn't mean anything by it. Don't make your Mr. Jiang think too much."

Tan Siyi smiled slightly and said, "How could that be? I won't disturb you gentlemen any longer. Goodbye."

After watching him leave, Yan Qianshan continued, "Jiang Muchen's assistant is quite composed and polite, and I've heard he's very capable. What do you think he was trying to say to Tang Xu just now? Their divorce proceedings are still ongoing..."

"Haven't you heard that Jiang Muchen was absent from the first court hearing? I think he doesn't want a divorce at all!"

"The problem is that he was so cruel to the Song family before, yet he doesn't want a divorce. Isn't that just plain crazy?"

"Is it just because you don't want a share of the inheritance?"

"It's said that this Miss Tang would rather leave with nothing than get a divorce!"

Fu Jiali sighed and said, "Men, who doesn't have a desire to have it all? Mr. Yan, as a relative, you certainly know more about the inside story than we do. Why don't you draw your conclusion?"

Yan Shiyu, who had been silent all along, finally gave him a look.

"My conclusion is that those who talk too much never end well."

After saying this, Yan Shiyu left directly.

This left Yan Qianshan and the others bursting into laughter.

……

When Yan Shiyu knocked on the door of Yujing Bay, Tang Xu had just arrived home. She hadn't even changed her clothes yet and was trying to call Qin Yun.

However, the call did not go through.

Tang Xu was not too worried about this.

Given what has happened, Qin Yun could, both morally and logically, take Song Yuqiao away from the Qin family for a while.

It can save a lot of trouble.

After hanging up the phone, Tang Xu looked at Yan Shiyu, who had just sat down on the sofa, and couldn't help but pout. "That Fu Jiali is getting worse and worse. Who was it that used to praise him for being gentle and refined!"

Yan Shiyu tilted her head slightly to look at her, "What are you afraid of?"

Tang Xu looked up at him and asked, "What do you think I'm afraid of?"

They gazed at each other for a long time, and then, without realizing it, they kissed.

Yan Shiyu reached out and pulled Tang Xu into his arms.

He put one arm around her waist and gently pinched the back of her neck with the other, not giving her any chance to pull away.

Their breaths mingled, and the water gurgled softly.

Just as she was about to run out of breath, Tang Xu was finally able to breathe again, leaning against him and panting softly.

She could smell the fragrance on him.

It was clearly the familiar, cool and deep scent of cedar.

After a moment of silence, Tang Xu finally spoke in a low voice: "Do you know what my aunt said to me this morning? She said that you and I have the same smell."

Yan Shiyu was silent for a moment before slowly saying, "Besides that, is there anything else you want to tell me?"
