On the day of breaking off the engagement, I got married to my ex-uncle

The next morning, when the sun was shining through the bay window onto her face, Chu Xixi was awakened by Qin Shiyu's hasty knocks on the door. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "Who is it? You're disturbing my sweet dreams?" She muttered as she sat up, then slowly put on her slippers and opened the door.

"Lazy pig, hurry up, the free dog food is all over the studio." Qin Shiyu put her hands on her hips and stared at Chu Xixi without blinking. Then, she waved her arms exaggeratedly, "Hurry, Xixi, you'd better get up and dress up immediately, Xu Yuanmo's behemoth is parked downstairs."

Chu Xixi stood in front of the door with a confused look on her face, rubbing her forehead, trying to recall everything that happened last night. In her vague memories, there were praises and toasts, as well as Xu Yuanmo's concerned eyes.

"This is for you. You refused to accept a bottle of red wine last night, so I accepted it for you while you were so drunk and adorable." Xu Yuanmo explained in a calm tone as he sat in the black car, as if he was covered in a layer of morning freshness.

Chu Xixi reached out to take the exquisitely packaged red wine. The bottle still had some body temperature, so he must have taken it out from the warm car early in the morning. She thought for a while and finally remembered that she had insisted on taking the red wine home last night because she didn't want to waste such a good taste.

Time is like the tiny grains of sand in an hourglass, constantly flowing away. The invitation she received today is the gift of time.

"Let's go." Chu Xixi pushed open the door of the studio and walked downstairs with a smile.

Standing in front of the black car, Xu Yuanmo was standing next to the car, one hand on the door, nodding politely at her arrival. The golden sunlight in the early morning hit his profile, making him look like he was covered in gold.

"Ms. Chu Xixi, it's nice to see you again." Xu Yuanmo opened the car door for her like a gentleman and extended a hand.

Chu Xixi wore a plain yet elegant white dress today. She sat in the conference room, calmly adjusting the documents in her hands. She glanced at the door of the conference room from time to time, as if she was expecting someone to arrive. Despite this, her expression still carried the calmness and concentration of a professional woman.

The door was suddenly pushed open, and a tall man walked in from outside. He was dressed in a well-tailored suit and had a strong aura. He was none other than the president of CR Group, Xu Yuanmo. His deep eyes swept across the room, and finally fixed on Chu Xixi, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

"Mr. Xu, you're finally here." Chu Xixi stood up and greeted him with a smile, her voice mingled with a hint of relief that was hard to conceal.

Xu Yuanmo nodded slightly, and walked towards Chu Xixi, his tone calm but with a little imperceptible tenderness: "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. How are you preparing for the meeting?"

"Everything is ready, we can start." Chu Xixi answered elegantly and appropriately, handing the documents in her hand to Xu Yuanmo.

Xu Yuanmo took the document, flipped through a few pages, and suddenly stopped, his face slightly serious: "Xixi, this design is indeed excellent, but I think we can go further. Are you willing to give me some more time so that we can improve it together?"

Chu Xixi's eyes lit up, and she nodded without hesitation: "Of course, I am willing to work with you at any time. For the perfect result, any amount of time is worth it."

The meeting started soon, and Xu Yuanmo and Chu Xixi had an in-depth discussion on the design plan. Their thoughts collided like sparks, constantly inspiring new ideas. Others were also infected by their enthusiasm and professionalism, and the meeting room was filled with a creative and enterprising atmosphere.

As night fell, Xu Yuanmo suggested: "Xixi, today's meeting was very fulfilling, but it's getting late. I know a good restaurant. Why don't we go there for dinner and continue our discussion?"

Chu Xixi was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Xu Yuanmo to suddenly make such an invitation. But facing his gentle and expectant eyes, she felt an inexplicable heartbeat. She looked out the window, the stars began to twinkle, and the night was gentle. She bit her lip lightly. This night seemed destined to be unusual.

"Okay, Mr. Xu, it's my honor to have dinner with you."

The two stood up at the same time and walked towards the door of the conference room. Chu Xixi didn't know how this seemingly simple dinner would profoundly change her destiny and start her relationship with

Chu Xixi stood under the lush peach tree, looking up at the pink petals dancing in the wind. This was her first time back after graduating from the orphanage, and every petal seemed to be telling the story of her growth and bitterness.

Qin Shiyu beside her gently held her arm, and said in a teasing voice: "Xixi, when you look at these peach blossoms, do you recall any sad memories? Why, are you still sad about that idiot Huo Hangfan?"

Chu Xixi shook her head and smiled, then sighed softly: "Shi Yu, what I can't forget is not him, but every corner of this place contains the memories of my growth."

As the two were talking, they suddenly heard a luxury car driving into the orphanage. The door opened and a tall man got out. It was the CR Group president, Xu Yuanmo, who frequently appeared in social occasions and held numerous business powers.

When he saw Chu Xixi, his eyes flashed with surprise. Qin Shiyu filled the silence: "Xixi, this is Xu Yuanmo, the president of CR Group. I heard that he will return to China soon. I didn't expect to see him here."

Xu Yuanmo approached gently, smiled slightly, and extended his hand to Chu Xixi: "Ms. Chu, I have seen your work at a design exhibition before, it is very wonderful."

Chu Xixi shook hands with him in surprise, and faintly felt the warmth from his palm, which was a bit confusing. She replied, "Mr. Xu, you are too kind. I still have a lot to learn."

As soon as they finished speaking, the doorbell of the orphanage rang. Director Liang Shufen came out with a smile and said to Xu Yuanmo, "Mr. Xu, we are honored that you can come to visit our orphanage in person."

Xu Yuanmo nodded and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Dean. I came here mainly to see the children here and hope to make some contribution to them."

At this time, Huo Hangfan didn't know where

At the banquet, Chu Xixi was surrounded by the crowd like a star, she was like a bright pearl, shining brightly, and could not be ignored. That night, she and Xu Yuanmo really became the focus of the banquet.

Whenever someone came to greet her, Chu Xixi would respond politely, and her elegance in every gesture was like a lyrical poem. This dinner was not only a challenge from her, but also a statement to everyone: she was not only the tough girl who grew up in an orphanage, but also had the qualifications to enter the high-end social circle.

From time to time, people in the crowd mentioned the tacit understanding between her and Xu Yuanmo, and speculated whether there was a deeper communication between the two. Whenever this happened, Chu Xixi always smiled and changed the subject. She was looking forward to it, but she didn't dare to open her heart completely.

When people talked about their relationship, Xu Yuanmo would always stand quietly aside, not participating in the topic. He would just look at Chu Xixi with an unfathomable gaze, making her sigh in her heart that he was indeed a mystery that was difficult to figure out.

The dinner didn't last long, Xu Yuanmo gently reminded Chu Xixi that it was time to fulfill her promise. Chu Xixi didn't refuse, she knew that this night would become more unusual, so she nodded and waited for him to lead her to the unknown destination.

The night wind outside the car was slightly cool, but Chu Xixi's heart was warm. The light inside the car was dim, and Xu Yuanmo's face was particularly handsome in the dim light. He did not speak, but just drove silently, as if waiting for Chu Xixi to bring up the topic first.

"Mr. Xu, why did you bring me to Qingshan Orphanage?" Chu Xixi finally couldn't help but asked.

Xu Yuanmo turned his head, his eyes seemed to be shining with a certain firm light: "Ms. Chu, this is a surprise prepared for you. Haven't you always wanted to know who your biological parents are? Tonight, we will find out the answer."

The surprised words made Chu Xixi's heart beat faster, and the long-lost feeling of anticipation made her feel complicated. Tonight, she will usher in one of the most critical moments in her life and unveil the mystery of her life experience.

The next day, Chu Xixi put on the skirt she had carefully ironed the day before and came to the company early. Xu Yuanmo arrived soon after, and he smiled and nodded at Chu Xixi from a distance. The people in the room suddenly became excited.

"Look! That's our president and Designer Chu!" A sharp-eyed colleague became excited.

The people around them immediately began to talk in low voices, and an ambiguous atmosphere spread in the office. Although they tried their best to control their gossipy nature, they couldn't help but look back and forth between Chu Xixi and Xu Yuanmo.

"Xixi, you and Mr. Xu look so perfect together, just like in fairy tales. Isn't this the transformation of Cinderella and the prince?" Qin Shiyu looked at Chu Xixi with the expression of seeing classic gossip.

Chu Xixi couldn't help but burst out laughing. She tapped Qin Shiyu's forehead with her finger and laughed, "What Cinderella? I think it would be more appropriate to call it 'The Love between a Designer and a President'. This title is so eye-catching." As she spoke, she recalled last night's dinner with laughter.

As the wine glasses flowed, the relaxed and natural conversation and glances between Chu Xixi and Xu Yuanmo were like flowing notes, adding a unique charm to the dinner. The ripples in her heart that she had never experienced before were stirred by his gentleness and deepened by his concentration.

After the dinner, when she was about to say goodbye in a hurry, he stepped forward and stood in front of her, like a tall wall, preventing her from escaping. Their eyes met, and the silent gaze seemed to penetrate the neon lights of the night and reach the depths of her soul. He seemed to have mustered up the courage and took the initiative to suggest discussing the design topic together next time.

How could she refuse such a serious request? Moreover, the rare heart-thumping feeling made her linger over and over again in the silent night.

At this moment, in the office, Qin Shiyu once again stood in front of Chu Xixi, his eyes teasing and expectant: "Hey, Xixi, you work so diligently, aren't you expecting the president to come?"

The red clouds rose, the evening breeze was gentle, and the night view of the city gradually became clear. Chu Xixi stood on the balcony of a high-rise building, and in front of her was a picture scroll decorated with thousands of lights, which was bright and gentle. However, her mood was not soothed by this dreamy beauty at all, but instead she felt an indescribable panic.

Tomorrow, she and Huo Hangfan will go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to complete the most important event in their lives. But at this moment, her heart is surging.

"Xixi, are you really ready?" Qin Shiyu looked at Chu Xixi with concern while adjusting the flowers needed for tomorrow.

Chu Xixi took a deep breath and forced a smile. "I think so. After all, it's not an impulsive decision."

"Yeah, but you don't look happy. A wedding is one of the most important moments in a girl's life. You should be the happiest person in the world."

Qin Shiyu's words shocked Chu Xixi's heart. She knew the true meaning of her best friend's words. Yes, why was she so confused and uneasy about this so-called happy marriage?

At this moment, her cell phone rang. It was a message from Huo Hangfan. It was just a few simple words: "See you tomorrow." But it did not make her feel relieved, but instead added a few more complicated emotions.

Chu Xixi turned around and looked at the city lights, thinking silently in her heart. She strived for perfection in every design, and she would not be careless about marriage. However, things did not go as she wished. Although Huo Hangfan had excellent conditions, he could not touch the string in her heart.

Just as she was lost in thought, there was a sudden commotion downstairs, and an expensive black car hurriedly stopped downstairs of the apartment where she lived. As soon as the car door opened, a figure hurried out, it was Xu Yuanmo.
