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

Coincidence? Chu Xixi didn't believe his lies. This man exuded a mysterious aura, making him hard to figure out.

"What exactly do you want to do?" Chu Xixi asked vigilantly.

Xu Yuanmo did not answer her question, but asked in return: "Are you going to live like this in a muddle?"

"What else? What do you want me to do?" Chu Xixi laughed at herself, "Cry and wail for him, and be in agony? Sorry, I can't do that."

"You should cheer up instead of acting like a lost dog like you are now." Xu Yuanmo's voice was emotionless. "He's dead, you should be happy, right?"

Chu Xixi raised her head suddenly and stared at Xu Yuanmo in disbelief. How could this man say such a thing?

"You..." Chu Xixi was so angry that she was shaking all over, but she didn't know how to refute.

"Am I wrong?" Xu Yuanmo raised the corners of his lips, revealing a hint of sarcasm. "When he was alive, you devoted your heart to him, but he was out there having a life of debauchery and even..."

Xu Yuanmo paused and didn't continue. But Chu Xixi knew what he wanted to say. The matter between Huo Hangfan and Zhao Xueer was no longer a secret.

"Shut up!" Chu Xixi yelled, tears streaming down her face. "You don't know anything at all! You have no right to talk about him!"

"I really don't have the right to say anything about him." Xu Yuanmo's voice suddenly became very light, "But, I have the right to say anything about you."

"Me?" Chu Xixi was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Xu Yuanmo meant.

"You deserve better than wasting your time in a garbage dump." Xu Yuanmo's eyes locked tightly on Chu Xixi, "Chu Xixi, look at me."

Chu Xixi's heartbeat inexplicably accelerated. She wanted to look away, but she seemed to be bewitched and unable to move.

"Look at me." Xu Yuanmo spoke again, his voice low and magnetic, "Tell me, do you want revenge?"

Revenge? Chu Xixi's heart trembled suddenly.

"I can help you." Xu Yuanmo's voice seemed to have some kind of magic, tempting her, "I will make you the most dazzling woman in the whole Jincheng."

Chu Xixi only felt a buzzing in her ears. The doctor's voice seemed to come from a distant void. She could not hear or see anything. The whole world turned into a suffocating gray. Huo Hangfan was dead? The man who once said he loved her and would take care of her for the rest of her life, just turned into a cold corpse?

"Xixi! Xixi!" Qin Shiyu shook her shoulders vigorously, "Don't scare me! The dead cannot be resurrected, don't..."

"Shut up!" Chu Xixi shook off Qin Shiyu's hand, tears finally bursting out of her eyes, "Who asked you to be so hypocritical! You have been hoping that I would suffer, right?!"

Qin Shiyu was startled by Chu Xixi's reaction. He stood there in a daze for a moment, his eyes reddened, "Xixi, you..."

"What do you mean by 'I'? I'm telling you, Qin Shiyu, don't think I don't know your little thoughts! You are just jealous of me, jealous that I found a man as good as Huo Hangfan, jealous of me..."

"Chu Xixi!" Qin Shiyu suddenly raised his voice, interrupting Chu Xixi's hysterical crying, "How long are you going to humiliate yourself! Huo Hangfan..."

Before Qin Shiyu could finish his words, he was interrupted by the sudden sound of footsteps.

"Chu Xixi, have you had enough of the trouble?"

A deep and cold male voice sounded behind Chu Xixi, with unquestionable majesty.

Chu Xixi turned around suddenly, and through tearful eyes, she saw Xu Yuanmo's handsome and stern face.

"You... why are you here?" Chu Xixi looked at him blankly, with a hint of tears in her voice.

Xu Yuanmo did not answer her question. He just glanced coldly at the sign at the door of the emergency room, then looked at Chu Xixi who was slumped on the ground. A trace of imperceptible disgust flashed in his deep eyes.

"What a good show." He curled the corners of his lips coldly, his tone full of sarcasm.

Chu Xixi's heart suddenly sank, as if something had tugged at it.

"What do you mean?" She bit her lip and raised her head stubbornly to prevent the tears from falling.

Xu Yuanmo looked down at her, his tone icy and piercing: "Chu Xixi, stop acting. Your little tricks may fool others, but not me."

"I..." Chu Xixi opened her mouth, but didn't know how to refute.

"Why, I said it right, you feel guilty?" Xu Yuanmo's mouth curled up with a mocking arc, "I told you a long time ago that Huo Hangfan was not a good guy, but you didn't believe it. Now that he's dead, you can legitimately take over his property, right?"

"You're talking nonsense!" Chu Xixi couldn't bear it any longer, she stood up suddenly, pointed at Xu Yuanmo's nose, and yelled hysterically, "Why do you say that to me! You don't know anything at all!"

"I don't know anything?" Xu Yuanmo sneered, "Chu Xixi, do you really think I'm a fool? Do you really think I don't know about what you and Huo Hangfan did?"

"You..." Chu Xixi was suddenly speechless and her face turned pale as paper.

Seeing her like this, Xu Yuanmo felt inexplicably irritated.

"That's enough, Chu Xixi, stop your poor acting skills. It's disgusting to watch." He said coldly and turned to leave.

"Stop!" Chu Xixi suddenly rushed forward and grabbed his arm. "Speak clearly, there is nothing wrong between Hangfan and me. What rights do you have to slander us?"

Xu Yuanmo shook her hand off. "Innocent? Ha, Chu Xixi, do you have any shame? You came from an orphanage, how can you have everything you have now? Do you dare to say that you have never used Huo Hangfan?"

"You..." Chu Xixi felt a black screen in front of her eyes and almost fainted.

"What? Did I hit you where it hurts?" Xu Yuanmo pressed on, "Chu Xixi, let me tell you, I've seen a lot of women like you. For money, they'll do anything. You..."

"Snapped!"

A loud slap landed heavily on Xu Yuanmo's face.

Chu Xixi felt cold all over. Huo Hangfan's face became blurred in front of her eyes, and finally froze into a mocking smile. He died? The man who once said he loved her and would take care of her for the rest of her life, just left this world like this?

"No! This is impossible!" Chu Xixi pushed Qin Shiyu away, staggered back a few steps, and hit the wall behind her.

"Xixi!" Qin Shiyu wanted to help her worriedly, but was waved away by Chu Xixi.

"Don't touch me!" Chu Xixi's voice was sharp and piercing, like the cry of a wounded beast.

Her mind was in a mess now, with all kinds of images intertwined, Huo Hangfan's sweet words, his indifference after the betrayal, and the last ambiguous smile...

"How could he die like this? What should I do if he dies..." Chu Xixi muttered to herself, her eyes empty, like a puppet that had lost its soul.

Qin Shiyu looked at her with heartache, wanting to comfort her, but found that any words seemed pale and powerless in the face of death.

At this time, a cold voice sounded in the corridor: "What's the point of crying when someone dies? You should think about how to deal with the aftermath."

Chu Xixi suddenly looked up and saw Cheng Yaoyao standing not far away with an undisguised look of gloating on her face.

"Cheng Yaoyao, you..." Qin Shiyu angrily wanted to step forward to argue, but was stopped by Chu Xixi.

Chu Xixi took a deep breath, suppressed the grief and anger in her heart, and looked at Cheng Yaoyao coldly: "What are you doing here?"

"I came to see the excitement." Cheng Yaoyao covered her mouth and smiled, her eyes full of malice, "I didn't expect that you, the great designer Chu, would have this day. It's really gratifying!"

"Cheng Yaoyao, watch your mouth!" Qin Shiyu roared, "Huo Hangfan is dead, are you happy?"

"Of course I'm happy. If he dies, no one will compete with me for resources." Cheng Yaoyao made no secret of her ambition. "Besides, seeing Chu Xixi in pain makes me even happier."

"You..." Qin Shiyu was so angry that he was shaking all over, wishing he could tear Cheng Yaoyao's hypocritical face apart.

"That's enough!" Chu Xixi interrupted their quarrel coldly, "Cheng Yaoyao, I warn you, Huo Hangfan's matter is not over yet. If I find out that it has anything to do with you, I will never let you go!"

"Oh, who are you trying to scare?" Cheng Yaoyao snorted disdainfully, "I'll wait and see why you won't let me go."

After saying that, Cheng Yaoyao twisted her slender waist and left with a proud look on her face.

"Xixi, don't be angry. Don't be angry with this kind of person." Qin Shiyu looked at Chu Xixi worriedly, "The most important thing now is to take care of Huo Hangfan's funeral."

Chu Xixi closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm herself down. Huo Hangfan was already dead, she couldn't fall down now, she still had a lot of things to do.

"I understand, Shi Yu, thank you." Chu Xixi opened her eyes and her eyes became firm, "I will take care of everything."

At this time, a nurse came over and said to Chu Xixi: "Miss Chu, the deceased had no relatives before his death. Please see..."

Chu Xixi was stunned for a moment. Yes, Huo Hangfan was an orphan, without a father or a mother, and his only relative was her, his nominal fiancée.

"I understand. I'll take care of it." Chu Xixi took a deep breath and said to the nurse, "Thank you for your help."

The nurse nodded and turned away.

Chu Xixi felt mixed emotions as she watched Huo Hangfan being pushed out of the operating room.

"Xixi, let's go." Qin Shiyu gently pulled her hand, "It's too depressing here."

Chu Xixi nodded and followed Qin Shiyu out of the hospital.

Standing at the hospital entrance, Chu Xixi looked up at the gray sky, feeling lost. Huo Hangfan was dead, and her life was like a blank sheet of paper, with no direction.

"Xixi, are you okay?" Qin Shiyu looked at her worriedly.

"I'm fine." Chu Xixi shook her head and forced herself to cheer up. "I'm just thinking about what to do next."

"Don't worry, Xixi, you still have me." Qin Shiyu held her hand and gave her strength, "I will always be with you."

Chu Xixi looked at her gratefully, and a warm current surged in her heart. Yes, she still has friends and her own career, she can't be defeated like this.

"Shi Yu, let's go." Chu Xixi took a deep breath and walked forward.

She has to be strong, for herself and for those who care about her.

Suddenly, a black Maybach stopped in front of them, the door opened, and a tall figure walked out.

"Chu Xixi." Xu Yuanmo said in a deep voice, "Get in the car, I have something to tell you."

Chu Xixi was stunned for a moment, looked up at him, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes.
