After the betrothal gift negotiation collapsed, I turned around and married a wealthy man.

Just as Bai Yi picked up Linlin, a strange phone call came in.

She thought for a moment, pulled Linlin across the street, and then answered the phone, "Hello."

"Team Leader Bai." A man's magnetic voice came from the other end of the phone, making Bai Yi stunned for a moment, "I'm Qin Ce."

Only then did Bai Yi react, "Oh, it's you, what's wrong?"

"It's okay. Are you and Qiao Xing together now?"

"No, we've been separated for almost 10 minutes. Can't we contact her?" Bai Yi's first reaction was that Qin Ce couldn't find anyone, and then he thought that Qiao Xing was absent-minded because she told him about Shi Yi's thoughts.

No, something happened?

When Bai Yi was still thinking wildly, Qin Ce said: "That's not true. I just received a courier. It's a watch. It's the same model as the one you got at the annual meeting. I don't think this watch can be sold twice in Chongqing City. In stock only.”

Because it was a limited edition, it was obvious that Qin Ce was asking her what was going on.

Moreover, what he said was impeccable and did not give Bai Yi any useful information. Bai Yi couldn't make it up even if he wanted to follow his words.

Bai Yi didn't intend to make it up, but was a little surprised, "Received it so soon?"

"How to say?"

Bai Yi told him exactly what happened, and immediately asked, "Was it sent anonymously?"

"No, it's in the name of Qiao Xing."

Bai Yi snorted, "She's quite good at it. She bought this watch in front of Qiao Xing and sent it to you in Qiao Xing's name."

If Qiao Xing went back and saw this watch in Qin Ce's hand, it would be hard not to think too much. Even if it was exposed, Shi Yi could say that she sent it in Qiao Xing's name and just wanted to help Qiao Xing. What could she say to her? ?

"I see."

Qin Ce ended the call and threw the box in his hand on the coffee table.

After thinking about it, he called again, also called for courier, and sent the watch to Han Yan.

Also considered waste.

After Qiao Xing left the mall, she went to a nearby stationery store and bought Lin Xi a schoolbag and some stationery.

After buying these things, she was ready to take the bus home.

But just as he arrived at the bus stop, Yang Xu called.

Qiao Xing could only answer the phone first.

"Hello, Lawyer Yang."

Yang Xu hummed: "Is Miss Qiao finished?"

"I'm done, what's the matter?"

"We haven't finished talking before, you can continue."

Qiao Xing was stunned for a moment, she was a little confused, "Don't you want to accept divorce lawsuits?"

"I can take it, but I need to hear the situation first."

Qiao Xing was a little happy when she heard this. She quickly found a quiet place to sit down and said to him: "That's right, I... a friend of mine, she is married to her current husband for the third time..."

Yang Xu interrupted her, "Miss Qiao, don't start with Pangu's creation of the world, focus on the key points. If it exceeds one hour, you will have to pay extra."

Qiao Xing was ashamed, this lawyer didn't even make any money?

But she didn't talk nonsense and said directly: "Well, the point is, her husband has been a domestic abuser for many years. They have a daughter, and she endured it because of that daughter."

"Some time ago, her husband wanted to marry off his daughter, but her daughter was only 15 or [-]. Then my friend ran away with her daughter, and now her husband is chasing her..."

Yang Xu listened quietly, and now he felt at ease.

He thought about it for a while before saying: "This is a complex issue that needs to be considered from multiple aspects. It can be solved not only through divorce."

"From a lawyer's perspective, the first thing I have to consider is the victim's personal and property safety. If a divorce is forced, it is likely to anger the abuser, leading to more serious consequences."

After hearing what he said, Qiao Xing broke into a cold sweat.

She almost forgot that divorce was not the most perfect solution. If Lin Qiang held a grudge, he might...not just beat someone.

"Then what should we do?"

"So I said, this is a very complicated issue. If you just want them to divorce, it's very simple. I can definitely do that."

Qiao Xing said hurriedly: "No, no, we must ensure personal safety first, so what should we do now?"

"I'm just listening to you now, and I can't assess the victim's safety risk. If it's convenient, can I talk to the victim in person?"

"This..." Qiao Xing hesitated. She was not sure where Lin Qiang was now and what his reaction would be if he knew that Wang Qin met with the lawyer.

It is also uncertain whether it will bring risks to Wang Qin.

Yang Xu said: "Is it inconvenient?"

"Not really, I might have to ask first."

"Yes, I understand. Then you should discuss it with your friend first. You can call me at any time."

"Okay, thank you, Lawyer Yang."

"You're welcome."

Qiao Xing hung up the phone, sat on the stone pier, and looked up at the sky.

At this moment, the setting sun was almost invisible, and there was only a crimson glow in the sky. The gorgeous glow covered the city, coating the high-rise buildings with a dazzling red light.

Pedestrians on the road are in a hurry, all busy with their own lives.

She looked at the sidewalk with shabby trees and remembered the day her parents left. It seemed to be the same day, and she was also at such a fork in the road.

I was young and ignorant at that time, and I didn’t understand what separation meant. I just found the sunset that day particularly annoying.

To this day, when she looks up at the sky and sees this red glow, she feels a sense of loneliness coming from her soul.

That kind of loneliness, being abandoned and abandoned by the whole world.

Suddenly the phone rang. Qiao Xing picked it up and saw that it was Qin Ce.

When I saw the two words "note", the feeling of sadness that echoed in my chest seemed to be blown away by the wind.

She slid down the answer button and put it to her ear to answer, "Hey, Qin Ce."

"What's wrong with you? You don't sound happy."

"Oh no, I'm waiting for the bus."

"Send me your location and I'll pick you up."

"are you still busy?"

"You're done, please send me your location first."

"Ok."

Qiao Xing hung up the phone and sent him the location.

When she looked up at the noisy crowd around her, she seemed to blend in again and return to the real world. She could also hear people passing by chatting about a certain star.

Qiao Xing was bored and watching short videos for more than half an hour, when the sound of a car horn suddenly came to his ears.

She looked up and saw Qin Ce inside through the car window.

Qiao Xing hurriedly put away her phone, stood up, walked over, opened the door and got in the car.

Qin Ce tilted his head and looked at her for a moment, "Are you really okay?"

Qiao Xing shook his head: "It's okay. What can I do? By the way, what do you want to eat tonight? There are no vegetables in the refrigerator. Let's go buy vegetables."

Qin Ce thought for a moment and drove out slowly, "We won't be cooking tonight, Yang Han wants to treat us."

"Why is he treating us?"
