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

Chu Xixi sat down at her seat, and Xu Yuanmo spoke slowly, "I was fortunate enough to see Miss Chu's design draft. It is very original and creative."

Chu Xixi smiled slightly and responded generously: "Thank you, Mr. Xu. I have always insisted that design should be a form of self-expression. It comes from life and transcends life."

Xu Yuanmo nodded in approval, "Yes, design should have a soul, not just a product."

Then, he changed the subject, "However, sometimes a work of art will change due to some objective factors. I wonder what Miss Chu thinks?"

Chu Xixi looked at him, knowing that this was just some routine assessment, but her eyes remained firm. "Objective factors are indeed difficult to avoid in actual operations, but a good design should be true to its concept and not easily compromised."

Xu Yuanmo nodded slightly, looking very steady, but Chu Xixi saw a hint of recognition and appreciation in his eyes.

There was silence for a moment. Xu Yuanmo walked slowly to the window and said, "I often see the development and changes of this city from here.

Chu Xixi followed closely behind him. The reception room in front of her was clean and bright. She followed Xu Yuanmo into the reception room. As soon as she sat down, Xu Yuanmo handed her a cup of coffee.

The aroma of coffee immediately filled the air. Chu Xixi was not in a hurry to drink it, but just adapted to the environment here.

Xu Yuanmo went straight to the point: "Ms. Chu, is there anything you need to know about the design requirements this time?"

Chu Xixi looked up, looked into his sincere eyes, and felt his sincerity towards this cooperation. She couldn't help but feel a little trust in him. While thinking, she slowly said, "Excuse me, President, does your company have any special requirements for this design concept?"

Xu Yuanmo's face exudes the charm of a sunny man, and he smiles slightly, which is a compliment and hope for her. "We hope that designers can create products with more humanistic care based on the core of innovative and sustainable design concepts. Miss Chu, what we need is a designer who can lead future trends, and you are exactly the kind of person we are looking for."

Chu Xixi's heart seemed to be burning with fire, and she was encouraged by the long-lost feeling of being trusted and encouraged. "I understand, President, I will use all my enthusiasm and talent to present you with a satisfactory design plan." Her words revealed determination.

When leaving the CR Group building, the sun was warm and the breeze was blowing, and Chu Xixi felt that the depression in her heart was relieved a lot. As she and Qin Shiyu walked and talked, she suddenly had a premonition that this time she could really get rid of the past and set sail.

A few days later, Chu Xixi stepped into CR Group again and walked confidently into Xu Yuanmo's office with her draft design. After Xu Yuanmo read her draft, a hint of approval flashed in his eyes.

Her designs are like a breath of fresh air, both innovative and sustainable. More importantly, she incorporates humanistic care into every detail.

"Ms. Chu, your design is eye-opening and seems to be even better than I expected." Xu Yuanmo said, with imperceptible joy in his voice.

Chu Xixi breathed a sigh of relief. She could feel the other party's recognition of her. This kind of recognition gave her great comfort. At the same time, she also unconsciously felt a little grateful to Xu Yuanmo.

"Accident? Such a coincidence?" Chu Xixi glanced at Song Yian's lackey and narrowed her eyes slightly.

Song Yian slapped his thigh, "It seems like we have never met Mr. Jiang before."

His emphatic tone made the core team of the company around me somewhat suspicious.

"Xixi, you never mentioned this Mr. Jiang to us." Zhang Yuan said indignantly, "Besides, there are many people who come to visit you because of your reputation, but I have never seen anyone who can go this far."

Therefore, Song Yian would also say, "I always feel like something is not right."

Looking at Jiang Jinyu's body language again, my expression became a little more serious.

After thinking for a moment, I subconsciously clenched my arms.

"You are just being polite, so I am just chatting for a while. To be honest, the number of times we have met is indeed very few.

"But every time you give me a new feeling, you are a respectable and powerful opponent.

"So, I brought my team here to take a look. My people are more direct in handling issues. Please bear with me if it causes you any trouble."

I resisted the urge to curse, and with one hand I said, "Why are you pretending?", and with the other hand I pointed in the direction of the door, "If the person you are looking for is this lady, she has already stated that she is not part of the marriage proposed by both parties, so I hope you can get out, right now."

"Time is running out. After all, my next schedule is very full..." Song Yian stood up, put his hands in his pockets, and shamelessly flicked away the non-existent dust. "Then I'll give you three more seconds to pack your things--

“3…

“2…

"goodbye."

He grabbed my wrist and looked behind me, "Please make way. The entrance is blocked and people are urging Ms. Chu to come in quickly."

“We’re already moving.”

I read the last word and quickly waved his arm away.

"All work will be handed over by tonight, don't worry."

"Then I'll be leaving now. Thank you for your hospitality."

Chu Xixi was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Xu Yuanmo to come and invite her in person. But she changed her mind and realized that it was precisely because of this that she made up her mind to participate in this talent recruitment.

"There's plenty of time. Why don't you get ready now?" Xu Yuanmo made an inviting gesture.

Chu Xixi nodded slightly.

When she got into Xu Yuanmo's car, she felt a sense of familiar stability. Inside the car, the high-end luxury revealed a calmness, which was completely different from the style of the aristocratic families she imagined, and was more gentle and profound.

The car slowly drove towards the crowded commercial street. Chu Xi looked out the window, with her own thoughts in mind. Although she was reluctant to admit it, it was undeniable that her renewed courage was more due to the encouragement and trust of that man. But what she wanted to prove was not only Huo Hangfan's mistake, but also her own value.

They arrived at their destination. As soon as they entered the fabric market, Chu Xixi felt a sense of vitality and bustle. The fabrics here are diverse, including classic lace and silk, as well as various original patterns and new environmentally friendly fabrics. The stall owners and shop assistants enthusiastically solicited passers-by, making the whole market full of vitality.

Chu Xixi shuttled between various shops, carefully selecting fabrics. Her eyes were sharp, observing the texture, feel and details of each piece of fabric inch by inch. She has extremely high requirements for fabrics, because for her, good fabrics are like the skeleton of a design, providing the strongest support for the entire work.

Xu Yuanmo followed behind Chu Xixi quietly. He admired Chu Xixi's unshakable belief and serious attitude. He exchanged views with her on the selection of fabrics from time to time. The conversation between the two was both professional and tacit.

"The details of the lace edge are very delicate, which is consistent with your design style," Xu Yuanmo pointed out a piece of translucent lace fabric, "It can well convey the combination of strength and softness."

Chu Xixi smiled slightly. She certainly noticed the specialness of this piece of fabric. "Indeed, it has its own personality, just like my design, which must inherit the classics while also being different."

As they walked and talked, the distance between them was shortened unconsciously. For Chu Xixi, this companionship seemed to give her more courage and strength to create.

In the center of the dazzling city, Chu Xixi stood at a busy intersection, staring indifferently at the shining wedding ring in her hand, but her heart was as cold as snow. This ring once symbolized her and Huo Hangfan's future, but now it has become synonymous with betrayal and deception.

Next to them, a few curious passersby watched the drama and whispered. Chu Xixi's eyes were cold, forcing back waves of sympathy and curiosity. She bit her lip and finally threw the ring into the trash can beside her. At that moment, her heart seemed to fall into the dark abyss along with the ring.

Just as she was about to turn around, she heard a low and attractive voice behind her: "Such a beautiful lady should not have such a sad expression." The voice came from a tall male figure. Judging from his profile, he was obviously not an ordinary person.

Chu Xixi turned around and faced the stranger who appeared at the lowest point in her life. The man in front of her was the president of CR Group, Xu Yuanmo. He appeared in a simple dark suit, handsome and mysterious. There was no trace of pity in his eyes, only a reassuring firmness.

"Who are you?" Chu Xixi frowned, a hint of vigilance flashing through her mind.

Xu Yuanmo smiled and handed over a business card. "I'm Xu Yuanmo. I happened to pass by and saw that you seemed to be in need of a friend."

Chu Xixi took the business card and thought to herself. She had never relied on anyone in her life, especially men. Huo Hangfan's betrayal was enough to chill her. She instinctively wanted to refuse, but there was an indescribable sincerity in Xu Yuanmo's eyes.

"Friend?" she repeated softly, as if savoring the weight of the word.

Chu Xixi smiled slightly, trying to hide the disappointment in her heart. "I will find the one who belongs to me." Her voice was a little weak.

At this time, Xu Yuanmo's voice interrupted. "It doesn't have to be now." Every word in his words was like a diamond embedded in my heart, hard and dazzling.

His words, like a warm current in the cold winter, warmed Chu Xixi's heart. And the wonderful power contained in his eyes, had both an electric current-like transparency and a profound sense of identity.

"Mo, why are you here?" Qin Shiyu naturally started chatting with Xu Yuanmo.

"I was passing by and saw a bridal shop, so I came in. I didn't expect to meet you." Xu Yuanmo's smile always brings a sense of intimacy and he doesn't seem awkward at all.

"Do you know each other?" Chu Xixi's curiosity was instantly aroused.

"We've met a few times." Qin Shiyu said as he gave Chu Xixi a meaningful look.

Chu Xixi smiled shyly, and the ripples on the lake of her heart began to spread. Xu Yuanmo gently took over the topic, with a seductive magnetism in his voice. "Miss Chu, if possible, can I invite you to dinner? As a small apology for this temporary interruption."

"Is this your real intention?" Chu Xixi pretended to be brave and asked with a smile.

Xu Yuanmo looked at her calmly, and the eye contact at that moment was beyond the scope of all language. He smiled slightly, and that smile contained understanding and deep meaning. "If you want, this can also be a beginning." His voice was clear and sincere.

Chu Xixi stood in the busy city center, the hustle and bustle around her seemed to contrast the desolation in her heart. Today should have been the happiest day of her life, she should have exchanged vows with Huo Hangfan in front of the Civil Affairs Bureau, but now, what she held in her hand was not the bright red book, but a crumpled wedding invitation, and the date printed on it was like a satire mocking her.

"Xixi, don't be so sad. That scumbag is not worth your tears." Qin Shiyu held Chu Xixi's hand tightly, his voice full of indignation.

Chu Xixi raised her head slightly, her eyes that always shone with tenacity were now covered with a layer of mist. "Shi Yu, I won't cry. Tears are for those who deserve them, but he...he is not even worthy of seeing them."

The two stood silently by the road, watching the people rushing by, each with their own thoughts in mind. At this moment, Chu Xixi's phone suddenly vibrated, and the caller ID showed a number she was not familiar with.
