At the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Chu Xixi was shocked by Xu Yuanmo's unexpected proposal of a flash marriage. She looked into Xu Yuanmo's deep eyes, her heart in confusion.

"Flash marriage? This is crazy!" Chu Xixi frowned, trying to sort out her thoughts.

Xu Yuanmo smiled slightly. "It's a little unexpected, but I think it's good for both of us. Don't worry, I will take good care of you."

Chu Xixi hesitated for a moment. She thought about the broken engagement, Huo Hangfan's betrayal, the crisis in her studio, and Dean Liang Shufen's love for her. All kinds of contradictions were tangled in her heart.

"I need time to think about it." Chu Xixi finally said. She turned and left Xu Yuanmo with mixed feelings.

On the other side, Qin Shiyu stood there quietly, with a hint of loss and helplessness in his eyes. He knew his feelings for Chu Xixi, but he also understood his powerlessness. Looking at Chu Xixi's back, he sighed silently.

At this moment, a familiar figure appeared in front of Chu Xixi, "Xixi, what happened?" It was her childhood sweetheart Qin Shiyu, and his eyes were full of concern.

Chu Xixi looked at Qin Shiyu and sighed softly, "Shiyu, I was proposed a flash marriage."

Qin Shiyu heard this and showed a look of disappointment that was hard to conceal. "I understand, Xixi, as long as you are happy, I will support you."

Chu Xixi looked at Qin Shiyu's expression, and her heart softened. She knew that she had caused harm in this relationship. But at this critical moment, she couldn't suppress her inexplicable heartbeat for Xu Yuanmo.

Chu Xixi was extremely conflicted. She was shocked by Xu Yuanmo's sudden marriage proposal and her thoughts were in turmoil.

"This is ridiculous!" Chu Xixi finally spoke, with a hint of anger and confusion in her voice.

Xu Yuanmo smiled gently, with a hint of warmth in his eyes, "Miss Chu, perhaps this is an opportunity, maybe we can help each other."

Chu Xixi is internally conflicted. She wants to get out of the predicament, but she is unwilling to compromise easily. Can she really trust Xu Yuanmo?

Chu Xixi felt Shi Yu's sincerity, but she was still hesitant. She turned to face Xu Yuanmo and said with determination: "I need time. I need to think about it carefully."

Xu Yuanmo nodded, his eyes revealing a hint of expectation. Chu Xixi turned around and left silently, with the chaotic thoughts in her heart difficult to calm down.

Xu Yuanmo stood there, knowing that Chu Xixi was struggling in her heart, he did not disturb her, but just watched her back silently. He understood Chu Xixi's contradiction, but he believed that she would make the right choice.

At this time, Qin Shiyu walked to Xu Yuanmo, his eyes full of complicated emotions. Xu Yuanmo turned his head and looked at the man who had been silently waiting beside Chu Xixi. "

"Xixi, you're a good girl." Xu Yuanmo said lightly, with affirmation for Chu Xixi in his voice.

A trace of helplessness flashed across Qin Shiyu's eyes, "Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to protect her." The pain and powerlessness in his heart were beyond words.

Xu Yuanmo was silent for a few seconds, then said, "But I will." The firmness and confidence in his tone deeply touched Qin Shiyu.

Qin Shiyu stared at Xu Yuanmo, then nodded slowly. He understood that he might not be able to compare with Xu Yuanmo, but as long as Chu Xixi was happy, he would be satisfied.

Xu Yuanmo stared at the direction where Chu Xixi left, with a hint of affection in his deep eyes. He said to Qin Shiyu: "I'm leaving, but don't worry about Xixi."

Qin Shiyu watched Xu Yuanmo leave, feeling mixed emotions. He understood the gap between himself and Chu Xixi, but he would silently support her decision.

On the other side, Chu Xixi was walking on the way home, her heart was in turmoil. The proposal of a flash marriage caught her off guard, and she needed time to sort out her emotions and future choices. Whether it was the pain of breaking off the marriage or the expectation of a new life, they were all intertwined in her heart.

"I will protect you." Xu Yuanmo's words echoed in her mind, making her smile unconsciously.

Chu Xixi took a deep breath, looked up at the night sky, and was filled with determination. No matter how rough the road ahead was, she would face it bravely and find her own happiness.

Chu Xixi returned home, still feeling all kinds of emotions. She walked into the living room and found a strange woman talking to Dean Liang Shufen.

"Xixi, you're back. This is Wen Xiuqin, she is Yuanmo's mother, and she came here specially to visit you." Liang Shufen introduced with a smile.

Chu Xixi glanced at Wen Xiuqin, feeling puzzled but grateful. She knew that Yuan Mo's family background was not simple, and Wen Xiuqin's arrival at this moment caught her off guard.

"Ms. Chu, I heard something. Although this is the first time we meet, I hope you know that I support you." Wen Xiuqin's tone was gentle, but revealed a hint of unquestionable authority.

Chu Xixi felt the aura of Wen Xiuqin and could not help but stand in awe. She knew that this mother was someone who should not be underestimated, and her arrival would definitely affect all subsequent developments.

"Thank you, Mrs. Wen. Your support means a lot to me." Chu Xixi replied respectfully.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Chu Xixi looked up at the door, wondering who was coming. Sure enough, it was Xu Yuanmo standing at the door, with a complex expression in his eyes.

"Ms. Chu, please talk to me." Xu Yuanmo's voice was low and firm, revealing his inner struggle and determination.

Chu Xixi's heart was shaken, she knew this conversation would be about an important decision. Facing Yuan Mo, she couldn't help but be restless, not knowing what choice he would make in the end.

Xu Yuanmo asked: "Would you like to go to the sea with me?"

Chu Xixi was a little confused, but still agreed, "Okay."

Soon, the two arrived at the beach.

Chu Xixi looked at the vast blue sea and couldn't help but sigh, "It's so beautiful here!"

Xu Yuanmo suggested, "How about changing into your swimsuit and going swimming?"

Chu Xixi blushed slightly, but still nodded. After all, such an opportunity was rare, and she couldn't let down the beautiful scenery and Yuan Mo's kindness.

Back at the hotel, they changed into their swimsuits. Xu Yuanmo was surprised to find that although Chu Xixi's swimsuit was conservative, it outlined her perfect curves. Under the light, she was as dazzling as a goddess.

Chu Xixi also noticed Xu Yuanmo's gaze, and her cheeks turned red. After a while, she asked softly, "Yuanmo, do you think this swimsuit looks good?"

"It looks great. You look good in anything you wear." Xu Yuanmo praised sincerely.

On the way, Xu Yuanmo put his face close to Chu Xixi's ear and said in an enthusiastic tone: "Would you like to try another style?"

Chu Xixi couldn't help but feel confused. She lowered her head with a red face, but her left ear felt itchy. She gently opened his hand, but couldn't help but feel the masculine aura emanating from him.

"Am I too weak in your eyes?" Xu Yuanmo suddenly changed the subject, his voice revealing a barely perceptible expectation.

Chu Xixi stared at him with wide eyes, then shook her head. She knew that they were not weak people, but there was no need to hold on when it came to love. She understood that as long as the two of them worked hand in hand, they could bravely face all the challenges in the future.

Then, a hint of determination flashed in Xu Yuanmo's eyes. He held Chu Xixi's hand tightly and promised in a low voice: "From now on, I will be your armor and protect you from all harm."

Chu Xixi felt a warm feeling flowing through her heart. She knew that the man in front of her would be her strong support. She no longer hesitated and responded affectionately: "Thank you, Yuanmo. I will also work hard to become better and support you."

After not staying at the beach for long, the two returned to the hotel.

Unexpectedly, Chu Xixi couldn't fall asleep late at night.

She woke Xu Yuanmo up and asked, "Are you asleep?"

"No, what's wrong?" Xu Yuanmo yawned and asked in confusion.

Chu Xixi stammered, "Can you please turn off the lights first?"

Xu Yuanmo was stunned for a moment, then he turned off the light with a smile, turned sideways and asked, "Is this okay?"

Chu Xixi mustered up her courage and crawled into Xu Yuanmo's arms in the dark. She felt extremely warm and at ease, and slowly closed her eyes.

Xu Yuanmo patted her back gently and said, "Go to sleep."

Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, Xu Yuanmo felt Chu Xixi rubbing against his arms.

"What's wrong? Xixi?"

Chu Xixi cried, "I can't sleep. The stone under my butt hurts."

Helplessly, Xu Yuanmo put Chu Xixi back to her place and turned on the light again. He saw her showing the tendency of an octopus and wrapping her whole body around him. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but still fell asleep holding Chu Xixi.

When she woke up the next day, Chu Xixi was embarrassed to find that she had hugged Xu Yuanmo tightly, with her hair sticking up in a very messy manner.

Xu Yuanmo spoke first, "Don't worry, I'm used to it."

Chu Xixi asked: "Why aren't you surprised at all?"

"Because I can sleep on the floor."

Chu Xixi looked under the bed and saw a simple mat on the ground. She couldn't help but sigh that this man had made such a thorough arrangement, and she was once again moved by his silent meticulousness.

"You woke up quite early." Without saying anything more, he got up and went to the bathroom to wash up.

Chu Xixi looked at Xu Yuanmo's back and felt a sense of happiness.

Chu Xixi returned to the studio and immediately started the renovation work. Because of her previous reputation, the client readily agreed to the quotation and only asked Chu Xixi to correct some minor problems.

After resolving this matter, Chu Xixi and her bestie Qin Shiyu were eating and drinking in a dessert shop while looking at the decoration renderings.

Qin Shiyu's face was full of worry. "Xixi, even though you were so good before, this time you're taking over a half-finished order from someone else. What if you mess it up?"

"Don't worry, nothing will happen."

"I still find it very strange. Why did the designer suddenly quit his job and was willing to share his achievements with you? This is unreasonable."

"Shi Yu, don't worry. Didn't the things you worried about before not happen? It's you who are becoming more and more nagging now." Chu Xixi smiled at her.

At this moment, a deep male voice interrupted their conversation: "Two beauties, would you mind sharing a table?"

Chu Xixi and Qin Shiyu looked in the direction of the voice and found a slender man in a suit and leather shoes with a camera hanging around his neck. He looked ordinary, but he had a rebellious temperament in his bones.

"Please go ahead." Chu Xixi replied.

The man pulled out a chair and sat down, then asked with a smile, "Are you two friends?"

Unable to lie, Chu Xixi answered truthfully: "We are best friends."

The man nodded. "Your friendship must be very strong, right?"

Qin Shiyu said proudly: "You don't know, Xixi has been working very hard, but as long as I am here, I will definitely help her take care of herself. She even broke off the engagement with her fiancé a while ago, and it was because I was there to support her."

The man showed a surprised expression, "Did you talk for a long time?"

Chu Xixi explained: "It wasn't long, just a few days."

"A few days?! Aren't you being too careless?" The man was even more shocked.

Qin Shiyu was unhappy and was about to retort, but he saw Chu Xixi's face getting uglier and uglier. The man also realized his slip of the tongue and apologized quickly: "I'm sorry, I say what I think. Please don't mind it."
