But at this moment, her heart was filled with courage. No matter how bumpy the road ahead was, she was determined to keep going until the truth came out. She didn't know whether she was curious, or because of her deep desire for the unknown, or both. However, traveling hundreds of millions of miles and overcoming thousands of difficulties just to achieve success and fame in one day, this was the irresistible cry from the depths of her soul.

Chu Xixi knows that whether it is Huo Hangfan's lies or Xu Yuanmo's sudden visit, it is all a mystery in the fog, and the answer must be found by herself. She deeply realizes that what she needs is not only the romance and desire of love, but also the courage to face life and challenges.

She straightened her back and broke the silence in the kitchen, "Shi Yu, you stay here and watch over me. I'm going to wash my hands."

In the bathroom, Chu Xixi scooped up a handful of cold water and splashed it on her face. She stared at herself in the mirror, a woman with deep eyes and slightly frowned brows. She took a deep breath and washed her face with water, repeating this action until those complicated thoughts gradually calmed down. When she came to her senses, she found that her eyes had never lost their bright light, which was a fearless pursuit of the future and a firm belief.

"Chu Xixi, come on!" She secretly encouraged herself in her heart and regained her spirit.

Chu Xixi stood at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, the warmth of her wedding ring still lingering in her hand, but her heart was as cold as an ice cellar. Huo Hangfan's face with his obscene smile was like a demon that could not be shaken off her mind, and the raw anger and astonishment intertwined together, forming a violent emotional explosion.

"Xixi, what... happened to you?" Qin Shiyu ran over worriedly, panting, his eyes full of confusion.

Chu Xixi shook her head and pursed her lips. Her young face was full of determination. Her clenched fists revealed her inner resolve. She said firmly, "Cancel the engagement."

"Break off the engagement?!" Qin Shiyu was shocked and almost thought he had heard it wrong.

Just as the two were stunned by Chu Xixi's shocking decision, a black luxury car suddenly stopped in front of them. The window slowly lowered, and a mysterious man wearing sunglasses looked at Chu Xixi nonchalantly, his tone calm but with a hint of dominance: "Get in the car."

Chu Xixi frowned. Why is this man so unreasonable? However, the tall man gave people a feeling that he could not be refused. Qin Shiyu widened his eyes and stared at the mysterious man as if he was looking at an alien.

"Why should I get in your car?" Chu Xixi asked coldly.

The man took off his sunglasses, revealing a pair of deep eyes with an unpredictable light. He said calmly, "Because I am your future."

While the two women were stunned, the man continued to add: "Xu Yuanmo."

"Xu Yuanmo?" Chu Xixi's heart was suddenly shocked. This name was not unfamiliar to her. He was a well-known name in the industry. How could he appear here? Could it be that today's accident became her turning point?

He seemed to see Chu Xixi's hesitation, and he extended his hand and said to her in a gentlemanly manner: "Don't you want to cancel the engagement? I can help you now."

Qin Shiyu's eyes widened and she almost cried out, but Chu Xixi's heart was like a surging ocean, confused and excited. Why would this high and mighty CR Group's president appear at her lowest point and propose a flash marriage?

She looked at Xu Yuanmo suspiciously, her black and white eyes revealing a hint of playfulness and unquestionable determination: "Are you serious?"

Xu Yuanmo smiled faintly, as if he had anticipated her doubts, and said gently, "I never joke."

Chu Xixi's heartbeat accelerated at this moment. In her chaotic thoughts, there was a trace of inexplicable expectation that was crushed in the wind.

One night, when Chu Xixi just walked into the studio, she found Huo Hangfan was already waiting for her there. She was slightly stunned, as if all her defenses were relaxed at this moment.

"Hangfan, why are you here?" Chu Xixi asked while taking off her mask.

"Xixi, next week we will..." Huo Hangfan put his hands in his coat pockets, looking serious, as if he had some important decision to make.

Chu Xixi stopped and looked at him expectantly, "What's wrong? When we met at the Civil Affairs Bureau, you said you had something to tell me. What was it?"

Huo Hangfan hesitated for a few seconds, "Xixi, on that day at the Civil Affairs Bureau, I ran into the person I met in the hospital last time."

"Xu Yuanmo?" Chu Xixi raised her eyebrows, her curiosity aroused.

Huo Hangfan nodded. "Yes, he is also in this hospital. It seems that a relative of his needs surgery urgently. I heard the doctor mention some problems at the time. It seemed to be related to blood transfusion of type O blood, but I didn't hear the details clearly."

Unexpectedly, Xu Yuanmo's appearance revealed Chu Xixi's doubts. He came for her sister's surgery. The whole thing was connected, which reasonably explained the accidental encounter in the hospital.

"Xixi, let's go get the certificate tomorrow?" Huo Hangfan said in a firm tone, but Chu Xixi's heart seemed to be moved by some emotion at this moment, causing subtle ripples.

"Tomorrow..." Chu Xixi muttered to herself, with a hint of hesitation in her eyes.

"Sorry, Xixi, is this too hasty?" Huo Hangfan noticed Chu Xixi's abnormality and asked with concern.

"It's okay, I'm just a little nervous." Chu Xixi gradually calmed down and smiled, hiding her hesitation, "Don't worry, I will be there as promised."

At a time when countless people only yearn for the most true and pure love in their entire lives, Chu Xixi actually had an inexplicable feeling - along the way, she was far from truly understanding Huo Hangfan, and also far from understanding the truest voice of love in her heart.

Qin Shiyu went out happily to prepare tea. Chu Xixi stood at the door and watched Xu Yuanmo's back disappear in the elevator, then slowly turned around and left.

Chu Xixi turned on her phone and saw a message from Huo Hangfan, asking her how she had time to go back to school today. Chu Xixi simply replied that she was discussing something in the studio and would go back in two days.

The phone vibrated and Huo Hangfan seemed to want to say something, but Chu Xixi had already thrown the phone aside and began to concentrate on the design.

The cooperation case of CR Group is a tough nut to crack. Chu Xixi must do it perfectly to stand out from the many competitors. To be honest, she doesn't think she will lose to others. After all, she has been learning design since she was a child, and her talent in this area is not comparable to that of ordinary people.

That day, Xu Yuanmo came to the studio to look at the design drawings and left without saying a word. Although Qin Shiyu kept calling him "cold and domineering", Chu Xixi didn't care. She had seen many men who looked cold, but in the end, they all knelt down and sang "Conquer".

But she soon realized how difficult Xu Yuanmo was.

In the next month, he found all kinds of reasons to come to the studio to discuss the design drawings with her. Today he had opinions on the colors, and tomorrow he was dissatisfied with the layout. He would not leave work until he came seven or eight times a day.

At first Chu Xixi thought he stayed so late because of work, but that was not the case.

One night, he insisted on taking Chu Xixi out for a midnight snack and ordered more than ten bottles of beer at the barbecue stall. Chu Xixi had a low alcohol tolerance, and after a few bottles, he felt groggy and his speech became a mess.

Later, when Xu Yuanmo sent her back, she seemed to hear Xu Yuanmo's low and magnetic voice ringing in her ears, "Hurry up, do you want to be my girlfriend?"

But she was so sleepy that her head felt like it was about to explode. She couldn't hear what he was saying at all. She twisted her body a few times to make herself more comfortable and ignored him.

The next day, Chu Xixi almost vomited blood when she looked at the poll. At some point, Xu Yuanmo had made an anonymous employee opinion letter, and 80% of the people wrote the same sentence: "We want a female boss!!!"

Chu Xixi stood at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, tightly holding the expensive wedding ring in her hand. It was a memory she and Huo Hangfan shared, but now it became a heavy burden in her heart. Her hands trembled slightly, and she finally decided to throw it away in public to get rid of this unbearable past.

Huo Hangfan's eyes were red, but he forced out a cold smile, "Chu Xixi, what do you mean? Do you regret it now?"

Chu Xixi's eyes were firm. She didn't want to look at Huo Hangfan any more. Her voice was trembling but firm. "We're done, Huo Hangfan."

The crowd around was filled with uproars, and many people took out their phones to record this shocking scene. However, Chu Xixi seemed to be isolated from the world, feeling empty in her heart, as if even the air had frozen.

Suddenly, a black luxury car slowly stopped in front of her, and the window slowly lowered, revealing an extremely handsome face - Xu Yuanmo.

"Miss Chu, are you willing to leave here with me?" Xu Yuanmo's voice was calm, but with a coldness that could not be refused.

Chu Xixi was dumbfounded, and the crowd around her was in an uproar, with countless curious eyes cast at her. Huo Hangfan's face changed, and a chaotic emotion flashed in his eyes.

Qin Shiyu squeezed through the crowd, held Chu Xixi's hand tightly, and whispered, "Xixi, this is the president of CR Group, Xu Yuanmo!"

Chu Xixi was startled and was about to shake her head to refuse, but a voice in her heart told her that this might be her only chance to escape from the past. She took a deep breath, raised her head, and took a brave step forward.

As she walked towards Xu Yuanmo's luxury car, her heart was beating wildly, as if she was about to make a decision that would change her fate. Huo Hangfan roared loudly behind her, but she chose to ignore him and stepped into the car.

The car drove out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, and Chu Xixi sat nervously beside Xu Yuanmo. The air between the two seemed to solidify, making it hard to breathe. Chu Xixi opened her mouth slightly, wanting to say something, but didn't know where to start.

Xu Yuanmo looked at her gently, "Ms. Chu, don't worry, I won't let you do anything you don't want to do."

Chu Xixi's heart was slightly shaken. What kind of person was this man in front of her? She was full of questions and curiosity, but also a little relieved.

The car speeds up, and the fate of the two people begins a new journey on a sunny afternoon. The surrounding scenery flashes by, and Chu Xixi's mood also soars, as if she can really leave those unpleasant things and start a new life.

"W-what?" Chu Xixi couldn't believe her ears. She hurriedly took out her phone to check the time and was stunned. "Oh my god, I'm going to be late! Xu Yuanmo, take me home quickly!"

Xu Yuanmo's eyes were filled with helplessness. "Please, as the president of CR Group, do I need to eat your midnight snack?"

Chu Xixi rolled her eyes and knew what he was thinking!

Please, she doesn’t even know him, she doesn’t want to get in his car!

Just as she was about to wave him away, Su Yuqing appeared out of nowhere and took her arm, "Xixi, I'm a little scared."

"What are you afraid of?"

Ever since the story of the gangster's daughter Shao Yuwei being abducted and sold became a hot topic on the Internet, Su Yuqing has become very cautious, as if someone is trying to harm her.

"Oh my god, there are actually such blatant villains!"

Su Yuqing's face was full of indignation. She took out a black anti-wolf spray from her handbag and shook it. "Fortunately, I am fully prepared. I guarantee that no one can get close to me."

But she forgot to look at the road and bumped into Chu Xixi's chest. Chu Xixi cried out in pain, and was dragged towards the door by her before she could stand still.

While Chu Xixi was still recovering, Su Yuqing held her hand distressedly, "Oh my God, Xixi, what are you thinking? He is the president of CR Group, how can you refuse him?"
