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

Just as they were immersed in each other's thoughts, the door of the restaurant was pushed open again, and a familiar figure walked in. Chu Xixi looked up and was shocked - it was Zhao Xueer.

Chu Xixi dropped her wedding ring at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, her eyes moist but her expression firm. She took a deep breath and decided not to cry for someone who was not worth it. Huo Hangfan's back gradually went away, and he didn't even look back at her.

"Xixi!" Qin Shiyu came hurriedly, she panted and held Chu Xixi's hand, "Are you okay?"

Chu Xixi smiled and said, "It's okay, I just finally saw someone clearly."

Qin Shiyu looked at her, his eyes full of heartache and anger, "That bastard, he doesn't deserve a single tear from you! What are you going to do now?"

Chu Xixi wiped the tears from her face and was about to speak when a deep voice came from behind her, "Miss Chu, I have a suggestion."

She turned around and saw a tall and handsome man standing there, with deep eyebrows and a look of inquiry in his eyes. It was Xu Yuanmo. She had met him at an accidental business event, and at that time he gave people a feeling of being unfathomable.

"Mr. Xu?" Chu Xixi was a little confused and didn't understand why he appeared here.

Xu Yuanmo smiled slightly, his eyes softened a little, "Miss Chu, I think we can talk."

Qin Shiyu immediately stood in front of Chu Xixi and looked at him warily, "What do you want to do?"

Xu Yuanmo raised his hands to show that he had no ill intentions. "I just heard about what happened to Miss Chu and thought there might be a possibility of cooperation between us."

Chu Xixi pondered for a moment and nodded, "Okay, let's talk."

They found a quiet cafe and sat down. Xu Yuanmo went straight to the point, "Ms. Chu, I know you are a talented designer, and I just need a designer who can work with me."

Chu Xixi raised an eyebrow, "What are your conditions?"

Xu Yuanmo smiled, with a sharp look in his eyes, "It's simple, we get married."

Chu Xixi was stunned, "What?"

"We can each get what we need," Xu Yuanmo explained. "You need a strong backer, and I need a wife who can appear perfect to the outside world."

Qin Shiyu slammed the table and stood up, "You are taking advantage of the situation!"

Xu Yuanmo shook his head. "No, I'm offering a win-win opportunity. Miss Chu, you don't have to agree right away. You can think about it carefully."

Chu Xixi was silent for a while, looking into Xu Yuanmo's deep eyes, as if she could see through his thoughts. She knew she needed a breakthrough to get out of Huo Hangfan's shadow and reshape her life.

"Okay," she finally nodded, "I promise."

Xu Yuanmo showed a satisfied smile, "You won't regret it."

A few days later, Chu Xixi and Xu Yuanmo met again at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau. This time, it was not to break off the engagement, but to get married quickly. Facing Xu Yuanmo's determined eyes, Chu Xixi felt a surge of courage and determination. She believed that she had made the right choice this time.

"Let's go," Xu Yuanmo took her hand, and the warm touch made her heart warm, "Our new life starts from now on."

They walked into the gate of the Civil Affairs Bureau, and this time, Chu Xixi did not look back. She knew that the road ahead might still be full of challenges, but she was ready to face all unknown storms.

Chu Xixi looked at Su Yuqing with mixed feelings. This seemingly innocent woman in front of her actually had many secrets deep in her heart. She shook her head gently, interrupted her thoughts, and turned around to continue sorting out the design drawings in the studio.

Su Yuqing licked her lips and said casually, "Xixi, don't you think it's strange that Yuanmo left suddenly? He has always been by your side." Her voice was teasing, which made Chu Xixi feel even more depressed.

"He has his own things to deal with." Chu Xixi replied calmly, trying not to seem too concerned.

Su Yuqing didn't intend to let go of this topic easily. She smiled, approached Chu Xixi, and said softly: "Xixi, aren't you curious? I heard that he has a fiancée abroad."

Chu Xixi's heart sank suddenly, and the hand holding the design trembled slightly, but she still tried to stay calm, "Yuqing, don't believe those boring rumors."

"Huh, rumors? Let time prove it." Su Yuqing shrugged and stopped talking about this topic. Instead, she turned and walked towards the door. "Xixi, I hope you are not so naive. In this world, not everything is as simple as it seems."

Looking at Su Yuqing's departing figure, Chu Xixi's heart was filled with mixed emotions. She knew she shouldn't be affected by these words, but the uneasiness in her heart could not be shaken off anyway. She took a deep breath and told herself to focus on the work at hand. After all, only by continuous efforts could she prove herself.

At this moment, the door of the studio was suddenly pushed open, and a tall man walked in. Chu Xixi looked up and saw that it was Xu Yuanmo's good brother, Song Yian.

"Xixi, long time no see." Song Yian showed a bright smile and walked up to her. "I heard that you have been very busy recently, so I came to see you specially."

"Yi An, long time no see." Chu Xixi forced a smile, feeling a little more relaxed, "Why did you come here suddenly?"

"I heard that Yuan Mo had to return to China to deal with some things. I thought it must be very hard for you to be alone, so I came to see if I could help." Song Yian said cheerfully, with a hint of concern in his eyes.

Chu Xixi nodded, but she couldn't help but wonder in her heart. Xu Yuanmo's sudden departure and Song Yian's appearance seemed to make everything a little complicated. She pursed her lips and decided not to think too much for the time being and focus on the work at hand.

"Thank you, Yi An," she said gratefully, "but I'm fine for now. I have some designs that need to be rushed. If you have time, can you help me look at these drafts?"

"Of course, no problem." Song Yian agreed readily, picked up a draft and looked at it carefully, "Your designs are very creative, but this part can be modified..."

As the two of them focused on discussing the design, Chu Xixi gradually forgot about the uneasiness in her heart. However, she didn't know that a bigger storm was brewing in secret, waiting for her arrival.

"Ah, you rich people really have no sense of humor at all."

"I don't even know how to give my girlfriend a kiss, then give her a deep hug and leave."

Looking at the documents handed over by Doctor Li, Chu Xixi took a deep breath and said with a smile: "Thank you, Doctor Li, I'm sorry for taking up a lot of your time."

"Ms. Chu, you're welcome." Doctor Li looked over with a smile.

"If you keep trying to fool me with sugar-coated bullets, I'm going to turn into a cannonball and blow you up to the sky." Chu Xixi was wondering whether she should introduce a partner to Dr. Li.

Doctor Li paused, frowned and thought for a moment, "Okay, just this once."

"..."

It seems that Dr. Li has a phobia of shells.

"Okay, I'll take care of myself, let's go." She continued to look down at the documents.

"Okay, I'm leaving." Dr. Li said and walked out.

After taking two steps, he turned back and said, "Remember not to eat sweets, it will really cause tooth decay."

Chu Xixi was too lazy to answer and picked up the pen to leave a message.

"No candy, just eat..." Dr. Li muttered softly and walked out the door.

Although she clearly heard him mumbling, Chu Xixi felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

"Snap!" The tip of the pen poked a hole in the paper, and the ink stained Chu Xixi's hand.

She raised her hand, her face full of confusion.

What's going on? Why does she feel a little stuffy in her chest?

Forget it, forget it, she pressed her forehead. I don't know where Dr. Li's words came from, it's incomprehensible.

She lowered her eyes and continued to shuffle the documents.

Patient Information Sheet...

……

She raised her head suddenly. How could it be?

Did she see it wrong?

Chu Xixi widened her eyes and frowned again.

Patient: Xu Yuanmo

Condition...

how so……

Dr. Li’s words from last night suddenly appeared in her mind, making her unconsciously associate the two things together.

She covered her chest, took a deep breath, and tried her best to calm herself down.

No, Chu Xixi, you have to calm down. Fear won't solve the problem.

She encouraged herself and continued reading.

"Like..." Su Yuqing dragged out her tone, "Like the desire we had when we were growing up in Qingshan."

Chu Xixi was stunned, "Desire?"

Su Yuqing recalled those innocent days when the children sat together and listened to the director of the orphanage talk about the outside world.

"Yes," Su Yuqing nodded gently, "At that time we were all orphans, without the love of our parents, and without delicious candy. But we all hoped that one day someone would take us away from there and give us a candy called "hope." "

Chu Xixi understood what she meant. They were in such a helpless situation at that time, and they longed for love and care.

"Look," Su Yuqing continued, "now you have the chance to taste such candy, don't you? Don't let it slip away."

Chu Xixi lowered her head and thought about Su Yuqing's words. Yes, she had a precious care, but she was hesitant because of the unknown future.

"You know what?" Chu Xixi raised her head, her eyes revealing a hint of determination, "In this city, I have never forgotten what the dean told me. No matter where I go, Qingshan is my home. And in that home, I learned the most important thing - to face it bravely."

Su Yuqing smiled slightly, as if waiting for something.

Chu Xixi clenched her fists and said, "So, I must bravely pursue my own happiness, no matter what the future holds."

"That's right!" Su Yuqing smiled, "You are so cute when you are like this."

The two smiled at each other, the sunlight shone on them through the window, and at that moment, the former orphan girl felt warmth and hope she had never felt before.

"Hey, haven't you always wanted to learn Yue Opera?" Su Yuqing suddenly raised her eyebrows and suggested, "Let me teach you? In exchange, you have to help me with the next thing."

Chu Xixi nodded and smiled with relief, "No problem, it's a deal."

Chu Xixi walked in front of the Civil Affairs Bureau, holding her wedding ring in her hand, but her heart was filled with cold disappointment. She looked at Huo Hangfan and Zhao Xueer who were close to each other not far away, and the anger in her heart made her almost unable to breathe. She thought he was sincere to her, but she didn't expect that he had already betrayed her.

She took a deep breath, forced back her tears, raised her hand, and threw the ring to the ground. The ring rolled to Huo Hangfan's feet, and he looked at her in astonishment, "Xixi, what are you doing?"

"Break off the engagement!" She spat out these two words coldly, then turned around and strode away.

Huo Hangfan hurriedly caught up with him, "Xixi, listen to my explanation, things are not what you think."

Chu Xixi shook him off without even looking back. "What do you need to explain? Your intimate photos with Zhao Xueer have already been posted all over WeChat Moments. Do you still need to explain?"

Zhao Xueer stepped forward and said hypocritically: "Xixi, things are really not what you think, we just..."

"Shut up!" Chu Xixi shouted, her eyes piercing her like a knife, "I don't need your hypocritical explanation."
