On the day of breaking off the engagement, I got married to my ex-uncle
Chapter 107: Genius in the Design World
Countless thoughts were churning in Chu Xixi's mind, and soon she felt that at this moment, all the sadness, anger and uncertainty seemed to turn into a glass of bitter wine.
She was just stunned for a moment, then gently placed the document on the car window and stared at Xu Yuanmo: "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Xu, but I don't think this is a decision that can be made lightly. My situation is in a mess, and there is no need for you to get involved."
She had no idea what the consequences of this momentary impulse would be, not to mention that she knew she was not in love with Xu Yuanmo. This was just a kind of comfort, a counterattack, or even a feeling of revenge.
"You don't need to be irresponsible to me, Miss Chu. I'm just offering a choice." Xu Yuanmo still remained elegant and calm.
But the fire in Chu Xixi's heart was burning. She knew that her decision might be too hasty or even crazy, but she needed an outlet. She needed to tear off all her disguises at this moment and let her heart be seen nakedly.
"Give me a reason, Xu Yuanmo, why me?" Chu Xixi couldn't help but ask the doubts in her heart.
He stared at her for a moment, then replied softly, "Ms. Chu, the answer to this question cannot be explained in a few words. This is not a momentary impulse, but a decision I made after careful consideration."
Her heart relaxed instantly because of this confession, but she also knew that in the name of love, she could not bring any harm to this mysterious and gentle man in front of her.
"Okay, that's romantic, but didn't you realize that you missed a Stone Age opportunity?" Chu Xixi shrugged.
He smiled lightly, then said solemnly: "You have the confidence to support the second CR Group. I am very interested in this and want to participate in it. So, we can discuss it, for example, what is the future path?"
She thought they were probably really crazy, because at that moment, she and Xu Yuanmo suddenly decided to walk into the door of the Civil Affairs Bureau and get their marriage certificate together.
"I do." Chu Xixi raised her eyes, her eyes shining.
A moment ago, Chu Xixi was determined to cross the threshold of marriage. But when she was really faced with it, she hesitated. Seeing Chu Xixi's pale face, Xu Yuanmo slightly raised the corner of his mouth.
"Hmm? Come up." The tone was gentle and peaceful, as if a piece of ice was placed on the tip of her heart.
Chu Xixi opened her mouth. Are they married now? The lady who issued the marriage certificate looked at the two people who had already stepped into the threshold of the Civil Affairs Bureau for the second time, her jaw dropped, and she patted her lightly. "Keep the marriage certificate, don't lose it again!"
Xu Yuanmo walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau first, and Chu Xixi followed closely in a daze. It only took ten minutes from entering the door to leaving. If you count the time she was stunned just now, it probably took less than eight minutes. In eight minutes, she married herself off?
In a trance, Chu Xixi entered a store. It was very big. She didn't know how big or high-end it was. What she cared about was the feeling that the first time should be cherished. Sitting in the car, Xu Yuanmo was looking through the investment project plan for the fake jewelry company. Liu Lengshuang was standing next to him reporting on his work. What was he talking about? She didn't hear it. She had been thinking about how to get off the car.
Originally, Liu Lengshuang and the guard outside the car were discussing how to separate the two of them. The guard asked Liu Lengshuang to think of a way for the president to deal with the heroine.
After a while, the two of them came out. Xu Yuanmo was holding the photocopied document that Liu Lengshuang had taken off. Liu Lengshuang looked at the two of them walking over hand in hand, smiling. "I corrected some of the typos. Anyway, the electronic version needs to be printed out by the secretary."
"Boss, please drive slower. The road is slippery in the rain." Liu Lengshuang smiled and watched them leave. As soon as she got into the car, she looked at Xu Yuanmo's back and Chu Xi, who was thinking hard, with a look of regret.
"Secretary Liu, what do you want to say?" The car was neither big nor small. Liu Lengshuang suddenly said something and held a handover ceremony.
Chu Xixi's hands were shaking slightly. She took a deep breath, her anger and unwillingness intertwined. She looked at the marriage certificate application form in front of her and was stunned for a moment. A faint smile appeared on Xu Yuanmo's deep face, and his eyes were full of determination and tenderness.
"Ms. Chu, if you are willing, I can accompany you through this difficult journey." Xu Yuanmo's voice was low and gentle, and seemed to have a magical power that could soothe her inner pain.
Chu Xixi held the application form tightly and looked at Xu Yuanmo with complicated eyes. She was struggling fiercely in her heart. She didn't want to trust anyone easily, especially the man in front of her who seemed gentle but unfathomable. But at this moment, her heart seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, and she couldn't help but want to get close to him and find a trace of warmth.
"Mr. Xu, we just met, why are you doing this?" Chu Xixi's voice was filled with a hint of vigilance. She didn't want to let herself fall into the whirlpool of emotions again.
Xu Yuanmo's eyes softened a little, and he sighed softly, "Ms. Chu, I know you are strong, but sometimes, being strong is also a burden. Maybe, I just want to give you a new beginning, a new life without being betrayed and hurt again."
Chu Xixi lowered her head, her thoughts in a mess. She thought of Huo Hangfan's betrayal, and the intimate photo with Zhao Xueer pierced her heart like a sharp knife. She suddenly felt that maybe she really needed a new beginning, a chance to find herself again.
"Okay, Mr. Xu, I promise you." Chu Xixi finally made a decision, her voice firm and clear.
Xu Yuanmo smiled slightly and reached out to open the car door. "Please get in the car. Let's go complete this application together."
Chu Xixi nodded and got into Xu Yuanmo's car. The atmosphere in the car seemed a little subtle, and Chu Xixi's heart was still full of doubts and uneasiness, but she knew that this choice might bring about earth-shaking changes in her life.
The car started slowly and drove towards the direction of the Civil Affairs Bureau. Chu Xixi looked at the scene passing by quickly outside the window, and her heart gradually calmed down. She knew that her life was about to usher in an unprecedented adventure, and the man in front of her might become the turning point of her destiny.
At this moment, Chu Xixi's cell phone suddenly rang. She picked it up and saw that it was Huo Hangfan calling. She frowned, and an inexplicable anger rose in her heart.
"Xixi, where are you? We need to talk." Huo Hangfan's voice came, full of anxiety and uneasiness.
Chu Xixi sneered and pressed the answer button, "Huo Hangfan, do you have anything else to say? Your affairs with Zhao Xueer are completely over."
Huo Hangfan was silent for a moment on the other end of the phone, and his voice became low, "Xixi, I know I was wrong, but please give me a chance to explain."
"Explain?" Chu Xixi's voice was cold. "What else do you have to explain? I have seen clearly what happened between you and Zhao Xueer."
"Xixi, I..." Before Huo Hangfan could finish his words, Chu Xixi decisively hung up the phone.
Xu Yuanmo glanced at Chu Xixi and said with a smile: "It seems that you have made the right decision."
Chu Xixi turned around and looked at Xu Yuanmo, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, "Yes, this time, I won't let myself get hurt again."
"What does Mr. Xu mean?" Chu Xixi's slightly trembling voice revealed her inner excitement and disbelief.
"What you have in your hand is the application form for the change of marital status of the president of CR Group." Xu Yuanmo's voice was unhurried, but with an irresistible force. "If you wish, today can be your wedding day."
Chu Xixi looked at the application form in the gold-rimmed folder, and her heartbeat accelerated. She understood that this was not only a way out of pain, but also the beginning of an adventure. Marrying a man like Xu Yuanmo was destined to be an uneventful life.
"I..." Chu Xixi hesitated. She was not an impulsive person, but the temptation at this moment seemed to tell her that this decision would have a profound impact on her fate. She took a few quick breaths and tried to make her voice sound calm and firm. "I want to know, why me?"
"Is it just sympathy? Or do you have any other considerations for my benefit?" Chu Xixi couldn't help but ask the suspicion in her heart. She needed to know what kind of person was standing in front of her.
Xu Yuanmo's lips curled up into a faint smile, and he did not answer immediately. The atmosphere seemed to freeze in an instant. After a long while, he slowly spoke, "Miss Chu, you have a strong and beautiful heart. This is not a substitute for anyone, but your own value."
"As for the marriage of the president of CR Group, it is no joke. I will never make such a decision lightly because of momentary sympathy or considerations of interests." Xu Yuanmo's tone was calm and profound, as if every word had been tempered through thousands of trials and tribulations.
Chu Xixi held the document to her chest, and the astonishment in her heart was gradually replaced by a strange trust. The authority and elegance that this man inadvertently revealed made her believe that there might really be destined coincidences in this world.
"Huo Hangfan, I'll make you a thing of the past." Chu Xixi murmured in a low voice, then raised her head and looked at Xu Yuanmo with a firm look in her eyes, "Mr. Xu, I do."
The sky was filled with sunset clouds, and the royal blue car was speeding along the inner ring. As the mileage gradually increased, the partner who had never spoken asked calmly, "Aren't you going to ask?"
Chu Xixi, who was dancing in a loose windbreaker, suddenly turned around, frowning slightly, and she actually had a lot of questions in her mind. For example, why did Xu Yuanmo suddenly appear as if nothing had happened, why did he help an unrelated stranger, and why did he choose such an outrageous way.
From the perspective of marrying me, he is the one who suffers a loss.
But she really felt that she was not a rich and lucky person. From beginning to end, she was just an ordinary girl who knew a little about design and loved to fall in love. He had no ill intentions, but the questions she couldn't express were all real problems. What was the reason for Xu Yuanmo to do this?
First, the partner who was silent but then spoke out suddenly said, "I personally think it's not appropriate to meet in the future. I rarely come back and I have a lot of things to do. If you are not busy, I will still be busy with the company and the family. So if you are busy, we can live in peace. If you get married because of pregnancy, you can only take care of it yourself, right?"
It seemed like a good explanation, but it sounded like none of it was true. Chu Xixi didn't refute or bow her head. She just thought about it quietly and said with a smile, "By the way, the college has launched an activity in recent days that is a key to mutual understanding. It is an outdoor one-day tour. If you want to come, we will work harder. Finally, I know.
The weather was not good, and there were several thunders in the night sky. However, Chu Xixi, who had not even returned home due to the message, quickly put on a silver-white jacket and a pair of hiking shoes, like a fully armed female knight. In a few hours, she had arrived at a deserted island outside Haicheng.
The sun shines through the gaps between the high-rise buildings, carrying light dust and afternoon fatigue, and lazily sprinkles in Chu Xixi's design studio. The heroine Chu Xixi sits in front of the design desk, her fingertips dancing on the drawing paper, and the pen tip leaps with lines and light and shadow like spring breeze and rain, which is the sketch of her upcoming new series of works.
The phone suddenly rang, breaking the silence of the studio. Chu Xixi frowned, but quickly adjusted her mood and answered the phone. Her gentle voice revealed her professional demeanor: "Hello, Chu Design Studio."
There was a fragmented and hurried voice on the other end of the phone: "Xixi, Huo Hangfan probably knows that we have his secrets."
Chu Xixi raised her eyebrows. "Qin Shiyu, can't you say hello first? What does that gigolo want now?"
Qin Shiyu couldn't help laughing on the other end: "What about the gigolo? It sounds like a detective novel. He's been busy spreading the word in the market lately, saying that he's going to open a design studio that's more upscale than yours."
Chu Xixi snorted coldly, "He can keep dreaming as long as he doesn't forget to flatter himself."
"Honestly, that man does nothing but bask in your glory. Don't you hate him?" Qin Shiyu's voice was full of teasing.
Chu Xixi smiled softly, with a calm firmness in her voice: "Hate him? Not really. He taught me a lesson - in this world, the most unreliable people are sometimes those so-called close ones around us."
There was a knock at the door. Chu Xixi looked towards the office door and saw a man standing outside with a smile. He was wearing a clean suit and his hair was slightly messy, with a bit of unruly taste. It was her old friend, Song Yian, a famous playboy in the city.
After hanging up the phone, Chu Xixi called Song Yian in. Song Yian seemed a little excited and walked in with a beautifully wrapped gift in his hand.
"Here, Xixi, your birthday present." He handed it to Chu Xixi with his unique showy smile, "Although I would rather give you a luxury yacht directly, but you know I won't do anything unrealistic."
Chu Xixi took the gift, smiled and shook her head: "Thank you, Yi An, you still understand me so well."
The atmosphere in the room was warm and relaxed. The two chatted and laughed, discussing the news in the city and the latest interesting things. At this moment, Song Yian suddenly became serious and said mysteriously, "By the way, Xixi, have you heard? The president of CR Group, Xu Yuanmo, is going back to China."
Chu Xixi was stunned. Of course she knew CR Group, a well-known business giant in the city. However, she didn't have much impression of Xu Yuanmo, the president of CR Group. "Huh? What's his relationship with me? Could it be that... he is interested in my design?"
Song Yian shrugged, "Who knows? Anyway, there will be a wave of excitement in this city soon. The big fish is coming back."
Chu Xixi gently flipped the gift in her hand, but a hint of doubt flashed through her mind. She seemed to vaguely feel that the name Xu Yuanmo would occupy an important position in her life in the future, but she couldn't figure it out. "You, what do you mean?" Chu Xixi's voice rose several decibels because of nervousness.
"It's nothing." Xu Yuanmo shrugged. "I'm just not happy with you and I don't like someone's behavior. So, we can just go through the motions. It can be considered as helping him."
"You, you are really planning something out of this world." Chu Xixi hesitated, as if there was a bottomless pool in front of her, and she began to weigh the weight of this "good intention" in her heart.
"Haha, I don't care. You are you, I am me. If you were not my good brother, I would not even bother to look at you." Chu Xixi's temper was so strong that it rushed straight to her head. "You put forward such a casual condition. Aren't you going to die of grievance?"
"I feel wronged. It's someone who feels wronged, not me." "You said we can just live together, it's no big deal. After all, I'm a major general, you don't lose out, right?" Xu Yuanmo raised his eyebrows, with a cynical smile on his face, "Just say it's true, you really don't want to, then you don't lose out, right..., which one to choose, think about it yourself."
"I can't care about such a negative attitude." Xu Yuanmo glanced at her, as if measuring her abilities and limits.
"If you don't even have this ability, then just keep quiet, at least in this life." Xu Yuanmo took a sip of the coffee in his hand and slowly prepared to get off the car.
"Prepare the comment section." Xu Yuanmo said, and he smiled.
"Wait a minute." Chu Xixi clenched the application form in her hand, met Xu Yuanmo's gaze, and agreed immediately, "Okay, let's cooperate with each other. Just don't let me get scolded in the comments."
"Mr. Xu, I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation."
"It's a pleasure to work with you." Xu Yuanmo showed a satisfied smile on his face and stretched out his hand to shake Chu Xixi's. In that smile, there was a bit of inexplicable excitement and expectation.
