The salesgirl's face turned pale when she heard this. She never thought that a casual remark from her would cause such a big trouble.

She trembled and tried to explain: "Sir, I...I didn't mean that, I..."

"I don't care what you mean." Xu Yuanmo interrupted her coldly, "Since you look down on my wife so much, then you should stop working here."

"Sir, please don't fire me, I..." The salesgirl suddenly panicked and begged bitterly.

"Get out!" Xu Yuanmo didn't even look at her, his tone was cold and ruthless.

The salesgirl wanted to say something else but was forcibly dragged away by the security guard nearby.

After dealing with the salesgirl, Xu Yuanmo turned his gaze to Huo Hangfan and Zhao Xueer, with a cold smile on his face: "You two, is there anything else? If not, please go ahead and don't disturb me and my wife shopping."

Huo Hangfan and Zhao Xueer were so frightened by Xu Yuanmo's actions that they looked at each other in shock. Neither of them had expected that he would go to such lengths for Chu Xixi.

Especially Huo Hangfan, he always thought that Xu Yuanmo was just a shield that Chu Xixi found casually, and it was impossible for him to have any real feelings for her.

But now it seems that he was wrong...

Looking at Xu Yuanmo's deep and unfathomable eyes, Huo Hangfan felt flustered for no reason. He subconsciously wanted to escape from this place, escape from this man who frightened him.

"Let's go!" Huo Hangfan grabbed Zhao Xueer's hand, turned around and ran out, as if there was a ferocious beast chasing him.

Looking at the two people fleeing in panic, Chu Xixi felt mixed emotions.

She turned to look at Xu Yuanmo beside her, only to see that he was looking at her with a playful expression. It seemed as if his eyes could see through all her disguises.

"You..." Chu Xixi opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.

"What?" Xu Yuanmo raised his eyebrows and said jokingly, "You don't recognize your husband?"

"You..." Chu Xixi blushed at his sudden address, and her heartbeat accelerated involuntarily.

"Let's go, my dear wife." Without waiting for Chu Xixi to react, Xu Yuanmo put his arm around her waist and took her to another clothing store. "Hubby will take you shopping today!"

Chu Xixi was a little overwhelmed by his sudden intimacy and tried to break free from his embrace, but he held her even tighter.

She had no choice but to let him hold her in his arms and walk into the luxuriously decorated clothing store under everyone's envious gazes.

"Welcome, both of you..." The clerk came forward warmly. When he saw Xu Yuanmo's appearance clearly, he was stunned on the spot, his eyes full of astonishment.

Xu Yuanmo seemed not to notice the clerk's reaction. He walked straight to the sofa and sat down, then patted the empty seat next to him, motioning Chu Xixi to sit down as well.

Chu Xixi hesitated for a moment, but still sat next to him obediently.

"Bring out the latest clothes in your store and let my wife try them on." Xu Yuanmo leaned lazily on the sofa, his tone nonchalant.

"Okay, sir, please wait a moment." The clerk came to his senses, responded quickly, and turned around to prepare clothes.

Watching the clerk leave, Chu Xixi couldn't help but turn her head to look at Xu Yuanmo beside her, and asked in a low voice: "What do you want to do?"

"What do you think?" Xu Yuanmo turned his head to look at her, with a wicked arc on his lips, "My dear wife, your husband is very vindictive. You made me lose such a big person outside today. Tell me, how should I punish you?"

Chu Xixi felt uneasy when she saw his burning gaze, and her heart beat faster and faster, as if it was about to jump out of her chest.

She subconsciously tried to escape from his sight, but he grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms...

"Hey, isn't this Mr. Chu, the designer? Why are you working here?" The sarcastic voice scraped past Chu Xixi's ears like a rusty knife.

She raised her head suddenly, and met Huo Hangfan's greedy eyes, as if he wanted to eat her alive. Beside him, Zhao Xueer, who was wearing delicate makeup, was looking down at her with a victorious attitude.

"Yeah, I didn't expect that a great designer like Huo would fall to the point of shopping in such a cheap mall." Chu Xixi smiled coldly, her eyes full of mockery.

She was wearing a simple white dress today. Although it was not a famous brand, it was clean and refreshing, which made her look more elegant and refined. On the contrary, it made Zhao Xueer, who was wearing all famous brands but couldn't hide the cheap smell on her body, look inferior.

"You!" Zhao Xueer's face froze, and then she took Huo Hangfan's arm and said delicately, "Hangfan, look at her, it's already this time, but she's still being stubborn!"

"Xixi, I know you are still angry with me, but I really know I was wrong..." Huo Hangfan looked heartbroken and reached out to hold Chu Xixi's hand.

Chu Xixi dodged in disgust and sneered, "Don't call me Xixi, you and I are not that close! Also, please understand that it was you who betrayed our relationship, not me, Chu Xixi, who let you down!"

"You..." Huo Hangfan's face turned pale and blue, but he didn't dare to get angry.

After all, he had been kicked out of the studio by Chu Xixi, and could only make a living by plagiarizing some of her previous design drafts. However, Chu Xixi had become a well-known designer in Jincheng, with a lot of resources and connections.

"What? You want to fight?" Xu Yuanmo pulled Chu Xixi behind him and looked at Huo Hangfan coldly, "Just you?"

He exuded a powerful aura that oppressed Huo Hangfan to the point where he could hardly breathe.

"You... who are you?" Huo Hangfan asked in a timid tone.

"It doesn't matter who I am. What's important is that you'd better keep your eyes open. If you dare to be rude to my woman again, don't blame me for being rude!" Xu Yuanmo said coldly, with unquestionable majesty in his tone.

"Your woman?" Huo Hangfan was stunned for a moment, then he laughed as if he had heard a funny joke, "Just you? Are you worthy?"

He looked Xu Yuanmo up and down, his eyes full of contempt.

Although Xu Yuanmo was indeed good-looking, the clothes he wore were all cheap goods from street stalls, and he looked like a poor boy. How dare such a bastard compete with him for a woman? He really overestimated his own abilities!

"What? You don't believe it?" Xu Yuanmo raised his lips with a playful arc, took out a bank card from his pocket, and handed it to the salesgirl, "Pack up all the most expensive clothes in your store for me!"

The salesgirl took the bank card, and when she saw the number on it, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she nodded and bowed hurriedly to get ready.

"You...you..." Huo Hangfan stared at the scene in amazement, his face becoming even uglier.

"What? Do you believe it now?" Xu Yuanmo held Chu Xixi in his arms, lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "My woman must wear the best clothes!"

Chu Xixi's heart, at this moment, began beating violently uncontrollably.

She raised her head and looked at the man in front of her. For the first time, she had a different feeling towards him.

"Sir, these are the clothes you want." The salesgirl quickly packed the clothes and handed them to Xu Yuanmo respectfully.

"Yeah." Xu Yuanmo took the clothes, took Chu Xixi's hand, turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait!" At this moment, Huo Hangfan suddenly rushed in front of Xu Yuanmo and blocked their way.

"What do you want to do?" Xu Yuanmo frowned slightly, and a hint of impatience flashed in his eyes.

"I want to talk to her alone." Huo Hangfan pointed at Chu Xixi and said in a firm tone.

"You are not qualified!" Xu Yuanmo said coldly.

"I have it!" Huo Hangfan suddenly took out a ring from his pocket and held it high. "This is the engagement ring I gave to Xixi. She has been wearing it on her hand until today!"

Chu Xixi's face changed, and she subconsciously wanted to cover her left ring finger.

However, it was too late.

Huo Hangfan's gaze had already fallen on her hand, or to be more precise, on the clear ring mark on her left ring finger!

"Xixi, tell me, this is not true, right?" Huo Hangfan's voice trembled a little, and his eyes were full of pleading.

Chu Xixi's heart sank completely at this moment.

She raised her head and looked at the man she once loved deeply, her eyes full of disappointment and pain.

"Huo Hangfan, how long are you going to deceive yourself?" Chu Xixi took a deep breath, suppressed the pain in her heart, and said word by word, "I no longer love you! It's over between us!"

"No! Impossible!" Huo Hangfan shook his head frantically, like he was crazy, grabbed Chu Xixi's arm, and shouted loudly, "Tell me, why did you lie to me? Why did you do this to me?"

"Let her go!" Xu Yuanmo pushed Huo Hangfan away and protected Chu Xixi behind him, his eyes cold as if he wanted to kill someone.

"Who the hell do you think you are? How dare you meddle in my business?" Huo Hangfan became furious and punched Xu Yuanmo in the face.

"Xu Yuanmo, be careful!" Chu Xixi exclaimed and subconsciously wanted to pull Xu Yuanmo.

However, her hand was held tightly by a big warm hand.

"Don't be afraid, leave it to me." Xu Yuanmo lowered his head and whispered softly in Chu Xixi's ear, his tone as gentle as the spring breeze in March.

The next second, he suddenly made a move, grabbed Huo Hangfan's fist and twisted it hard.

“Crack!”

Chu Xixi's breathing stagnated, and her face turned pale instantly. Enemies often meet on narrow roads. At this time, under this circumstance, she ran into this pair of dogs and bitches!

Huo Hangfan's gaze wandered over her body unscrupulously, from her delicate collarbone to her slender waist, and finally stopped on her straight and long legs, revealing an undisguised lust.

"Hey, isn't this our great designer Chu? Why are you dressed like this? Are you hooking up with some rich guy?" Huo Hangfan said sarcastically, his tone full of jealousy and ridicule.

Zhao Xueer looked at Chu Xixi with disdain, and gently stroked Huo Hangfan's arm with her fingers painted with bright red nail polish, and said in a coquettish voice: "Hangfan, he is a big designer, his standards are very high, he doesn't like people like us."

"Xue'er, how can you say that?" Huo Hangfan pretended to be gentle and put his arm around Zhao Xue'er's waist. "Designer Chu had high standards, but that was in the past. Now, haha, isn't it all about money? Anyone will do, right?"

He deliberately emphasized the word "money" and glanced at Xu Yuanmo with contempt, full of provocation. He knew that Chu Xixi hated being accused of worshipping money.

Sure enough, Chu Xixi's face became even uglier. She bit her lips tightly, clenched her fists tightly, and tried hard to restrain her urge to tear Huo Hangfan's face apart.

"Sir, I advise you to keep your mouth shut!" Xu Yuanmo spoke coldly. He exuded a powerful aura that made Huo Hangfan's heart tremble.

But Huo Hangfan quickly regained his confidence by relying on the power of numbers. He straightened his back and said arrogantly: "What? Did I say something wrong? Ask her if you bought the clothes she is wearing?"
