She hung up the phone, and endless melancholy crept onto her pretty face. Alas, perhaps this is fate? She had thought that marriage was a testament to the love between two like-minded people, but she had so hastily ended her life.
Luo Bin looked utterly astonished. "Xiaoyi, who are you going to marry?"
Luo Xiaoyi couldn't keep it from her friend anymore. Luo Bin had been her friend for several years, and she couldn't hide such a major life event from him.
"Yes, he's the president of the European Group."
"What? Ou Shi Group? President? The richest man in our country? He wants to marry you? Isn't this a fantasy? Did I hear that right?" Luo Bin scratched his ears, he couldn't believe it was true even if he were beaten to death. President Ou was the object of the desperate pursuit of socialites and heiresses across the country. How could he marry such an ordinary person as Luo Xiaoyi?
And in just a few days, President Ou has taken a liking to our Xiaoyi? He wants to marry her? Luo Bin couldn't understand it no matter how hard he tried.
A glint flashed in Luo Bin's eyes. He was a meticulous person, and after a moment's thought, he wondered if President Ou had some ulterior motive. Thinking this, he felt a little scared.
"Yes, Luo Bin, but things aren't as simple as you think. President Ou has mistaken me for his ex-girlfriend. It seems I look a lot like her. He said he'd help me pay off my debts and redeem my villa, on the condition that I marry him." Luo Xiaoyi explained, sighing and lamenting, waves of melancholy washing over her.
Luo Bin immediately felt guilty, "Xiaoyi, it's all my fault. I didn't have the ability to help you redeem the villa."
Luo Xiaoyi patted his worried forehead with her little hand, and said with a playful smile, "Luo Bin, oh, don't blame yourself. Marrying the richest man in the country is something that many noble ladies dream of. I got a great deal!"
: : : : “Xiaoyi…”
Luo Bin looked at her. Although she seemed so relaxed and cheerful, he had been her friend for many years, and he could still sense her helplessness and melancholy. He felt very uncomfortable.
"Did President Ou marry you just because you look like his ex-girlfriend? That's a really weak reason. I wonder what ulterior motive President Ou has? With his status, he could easily find out you're not his ex-girlfriend. Why would he marry you?"
Luo Xiaoyi frowned deeply. "Yes, I can't figure this out either. But this marriage is currently beneficial to me. As for the future, I can't worry about that now. I'll just take it one step at a time."
Luo Bin seemed to be making a painful decision. There were some things Xiao Yi didn't know, but his godmother had told him that having such a powerful man as a backer for Xiao Yi might not be a bad thing in order to cope with the huge disasters to come. "In that case, Xiao Yi, you have to be careful in the future. Never fall in love with this President Ou. At least leave yourself a way out."
Luo Xiaoyi's expression was unusually solemn. She nodded heavily. This was her bottom line, and she naturally couldn't afford to lose everything.
Luo Xiaoyi returned to the villa very late. Originally, Butler Zhao called to say that he would wait for her to come back before serving dinner, but she said she would eat out and didn't ask Butler Zhao to wait for her. She took a shower and lay down on the soft bed and fell into a deep sleep.
In the middle of the night, she seemed to be dreaming, dreaming that she was sleeping in the arms of a warm man. When she woke up in the morning, she was still alone, but the faint scent of lavender left on the bed proved that the man in her dream was real.
Sigh, this man is really elusive. I wonder what he's thinking? He's so mysterious, like a complete enigma.
Luo Xiaoyi arrived at Ou Zihan's office as promised. The secretary called to inform her before leading her inside.
When Luo Xiaoyi entered, he saw Ou Zihan sitting with his long legs crossed in front of his imposing desk. His handsome face had a cold expression that sent chills down one's spine. Five senior executives stood respectfully in front of him, reporting to him one by one on the management of their respective departments.
