After a moment of silence, Chu Xixi slowly opened the ring box tightly held in her hand, revealing the so-called love token inside. Then she looked directly into Huo Hangfan's eyes and said word by word: "Huo Hangfan, I'm breaking off the engagement with you!"

The sun shines through the gaps between the high-rise buildings and shines on the bustling Civil Affairs Bureau. Chu Xixi lifts her skirt slightly and stands lightly in front of the towering building. Her fingers tremble slightly as she strokes the smooth and cold wedding ring, her heart lingering with the last hesitation and determination. This should have been her big day, but because of a cheating photo, it turned into anger and loss.

The envious eyes of others and the expectations of her family and friends became the heaviest burden in her heart. Suddenly, all the voices seemed to be far away from her, all the noise became invisible, and only her rapid heartbeat remained in her ears.

At that moment, a blue figure appeared in her vision, causing her world to suddenly stop. The man walked calmly, like a nobleman walking out of a painting, but his eyes were sharper and more resolute than any words.

Xu Yuanmo, inadvertently, became the most brilliant episode in her farce. His unfathomable eyes revealed a heart-pounding attraction, as if he could see through everything in the world.

"Do you need any help, beautiful lady?" Xu Yuanmo's sudden words stunned Chu Xixi, but it was like a magic sound that penetrated into her heart, arousing all her unwillingness and courage.

Chu Xixi was stunned for a moment, then bit her lip, "Actually, I...I need a groom." She gave him a slightly teasing and mischievous look, but her heart was filled with indescribable anxiety and nervousness.

The corner of Xu Yuanmo's mouth showed a hint of a smile, "It's really my honor. If you don't mind, I'd like to give you this honor." His words seemed like a light-hearted joke, but they instantly ignited the wildest impulse in Chu Xixi's heart.

So, amid everyone's stunned gazes and whispers, the two strangers walked into the auditorium hand in hand and made the most unreasonable union. Chu Xixi's heartbeat was like a drum, fast and powerful, but the man in front of him seemed completely at ease, as if all this was within his expectations.

After registering, Chu Xixi looked at the new red book in her hand, and suddenly, a warm current of beauty spread in her heart. She raised her head and prepared to say something to Xu Yuanmo, but at that moment, she saw a deep flash in his eyes, as if he had a thousand words to say, but he remained silent.

"Where are we going?" she asked tentatively, her heart full of curiosity and anticipation for the future.

Xu Yuanmo just smiled faintly, and replied casually and mysteriously: "My world, from today on, is also your world. I will take you to the most incredible place."

Chu Xixi felt an inexplicable intoxication rising in her heart. This man seemed to be a hunter she had never met in her life. His arrow was pointed at her, and she was willing to be captured. Just when she thought she would find a way out in this casual wandering, suddenly -

Sure enough, the next day, Fulon’s boss found her.

When facing these big guys, she always has to spend a lot of energy and wisdom, thanks to the reaction speed and thinking ability she has trained over the years. Every conversation is an extension of her limit.

They talked to her about interests and tried to pressure her with piles of data and prospects, but she knew that the real choice was always in her hands.

The negotiations were difficult and long, and for a whole day and night, Chu Xixi pushed herself to the limit. She finally silenced everyone and reached an agreement with an unlikely condition.

The moment she signed the contract, she fainted. When she woke up, she was lying on a hospital bed.

When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was not the white ceiling, but a pair of deep black eyes that contained a bit of surprise.

"Chu Xixi, are you awake?" His voice was soft and had a deadly magnetism. "The doctor said that you fainted because of continuous overwork and irregular diet."

The unique smell of the hospital calmed Chu Xixi down all of a sudden. She raised her hand and pinched her brows, and asked, "How long have I been unconscious? I remember I was talking to them before I fainted."

"It's been a whole day." He held her limp hand. "The reason I told you this is because according to my investigation, your ex-boyfriend Huo Hangfan's company also used this method to squeeze you dry."

His voice was as cold as ice, and it reached Chu Xixi's ears, making her shiver involuntarily.

Chu Xixi forced a smile and said, "I'm fine."

"We all know that if it hadn't happened, we wouldn't be sitting here."

He frowned slightly, "Of course, even if I knew everything earlier, I would still lend a helping hand."

She was speechless for a while. After a long time, she finally supported her upper body. He immediately supported her. Only then did she realize how weak she was.

"Chu Xixi, you always inadvertently doubt our relationship." Xu Yuanmo grabbed her hand, his tone deep and a little too strong.

Chu Xixi raised her head, her eyes as clear as a deep lake could almost reflect Xu Yuanmo's face, his deep eyes were filled with endless tenderness. "But I never called you Xu Yuanmo, I only called you Ah Mo."

The man glanced at her, letting the unexpected joy in his heart spread, even the low laughter that was concealed could not hide it. "This is your privilege, only you can do it."

Champagne bubbles spurted out from the mouth of the glass, and sparkling diamonds scattered all over the table. Xu Yuanmo watched the woman's every move in front of him, unable to divert his gaze. Today, she was so beautiful that he wanted to get more of her like a hungry ghost.

At this moment, Chu Xixi was completely immersed in her own world, shining without reservation. In that light, she was full of pride and brilliance, like a wantonly burning firework, scorching and brilliant. But he also knew that this woman's world had long been set to "Do Not Disturb".

Suddenly, Xu Yuanmo felt a chill from behind. This woman, Cheng Yaoyao, he had never concealed his hostility towards her, but she never gave in and always provoked him.

Cheng Yaoyao looked at Chu Xixi coldly, "Hey, isn't this the most famous designer in our studio? Why, want to compete with me?"

Cheng Yaoyao, wearing a red dress, was like a moth flying into a flame, making people unable to bear to roll their eyes. And the arrogant words made the atmosphere at the scene drop to the lowest point.

Chu Xixi had been leaning quietly against the pillar, staring at her with a pair of beautiful almond-shaped eyes in confusion, and chuckled, "You think too highly of me. We are not the same kind of people."

Xu Yuanmo was a little nervous, but this calm answer made him feel a little overwhelmed. Chu Xixi was like a gentle lotus, sitting there, her smile was like frosted glass beads, revealing a little fragrance.

Seeing Chu Xixi's neither humble nor arrogant attitude, Cheng Yaoyao's face suddenly darkened. Her eyes were full of hostility, "I really don't know how you climbed over my head?!"

The atmosphere on the field became tense again. The eyes of the group of people at the table were all shining with joy. Even Xu Yuanmo, who was indifferent, couldn't help but sigh that this woman was indeed the most charming he had ever seen. But at this moment, what made him feel uneasy was another factor...

"It hasn't even begun, and it's going to end? Hope doesn't end here..." Xu Yuanmo sighed to himself, arousing people's expectations for what will happen next.

"Don't think you can continue to be so arrogant. Although you have left the studio, this city is not big. You will regret it one day."

"As for Huo Hangfan, men like him are simply unreliable. Xixi, you will not be the loser." Song Yian said slowly and firmly.

Chu Xixi looked at Song Yian, never expecting him to say these words.

"Even if he is not hiding anything from me, there is no need for us to continue." Chu Xixi responded decisively.

Just like that, their relationship ended completely.

The next day, when the new head of the organization came to her, Chu Xixi's mood hit rock bottom. She felt that she had difficulty breathing. At that moment, it seemed that the whole world was against her. Indignation, despair, resentment...all kinds of complicated emotions surged into her heart.

Thoughts flashed through her mind. Was she blaming Huo Hangfan for his betrayal? Or was she regretting not following Song Yian's advice? But Chu Xixi finally decided that she would not dwell on the past. She would stand up again. She had to prove that she could move forward independently without relying on anyone. She couldn't just give up so easily. This was not her character - Chu Xixi.

However, the moment the organization leader announced that they would continue to promote the cooperation, the outcome was already decided. Song Yian's smug look was almost enough to tear off someone's face. Huo Hangfan looked ashen, and even sweat was pouring out of his forehead, as if this sudden crisis had pushed him into a desperate situation.

"So, Huo Hangfan, do you have anything to say?" Chu Xixi's eyes were cold. She was eager to use her victory to prove her independence and strength.

Huo Hangfan turned pale and stammered, "I...I didn't expect this to happen."

Chu Xixi smiled gently, "Then I hope you can disappear from my life in the future. You taught me a valuable lesson and made me understand who is the truly important person." She looked at Xu Yuanmo and An Ru, both of whom had faint smiles on their faces.

She took a deep breath, then turned to Song Yian and said slowly: "I never thought that all this would be planned for me by Mr. Song."

Chu Xixi stood in front of the cold metal door, her heart beating like a drumstick. This was the Civil Affairs Bureau where she and her ex got engaged. But today, what she had to do was not to exchange rings, but to regain her dignity. Lifting her skirt, she bravely walked into the bureau. All the eyes that viewed marriage as a drama were meaningless to her.

Huo Hangfan's other half, Zhao Xueer, was nestled in his arms, pretending to glance at him casually, with a smug look on her face. Chu Xixi was silent, knowing that any words would be superfluous at this moment.

Suddenly, the sound of heels came from the stairs, and everyone's eyes shifted. A man who was much more charming than Huo Hangfan walked into the sight, and his eyes accidentally met Chu Xixi's. It was a look as deep as the sea, but as calm as water - Xu Yuanmo.

Seeing the situation becoming increasingly tense, Chu Xixi instinctively felt a sense of inexplicable security at this moment. Xu Yuanmo did not say much, but gently took Chu Xixi's hand, and the warmth from his palm gave her strength.

"Chu Xixi, is this your Yu Yan?" Zhao Xueer sneered and spoke contemptuously.

"No, I'm just here to return this." Chu Xixi said, taking off the ring and calmly placing it in Huo Hangfan's palm.

"Oh, that's ridiculous! Do you think you can find someone better than me after breaking off the engagement?" Huo Hangfan sneered, provocation flashing in his eyes.

"Better than you? Maybe he is already standing in front of you." Xu Yuanmo spoke slowly, his tone full of confidence, which was an undisputed confidence in his own status.

The people around were whispering and talking, but Xu Yuanmo ignored them, looked straight into Chu Xixi's eyes, and said, "If you don't mind, I want you to be my wife."

The atmosphere suddenly changed again, and everyone looked at this scene in astonishment. Zhao Xueer's face turned pale, and Huo Hangfan's face was full of shock and disbelief.

Chu Xixi was shocked, and a thousand questions flashed through her mind. She had never expected such a turn of events. The others were obviously the same, as if all eyes were waiting for her answer. At that moment, time seemed to freeze.
