The piercing voice made the woman who was pointed at tremble and burst into tears.

It turned out that the husband and wife were not in harmony and divorced, and this was all in the hot pot restaurant, and everyone was whispering, purely to watch the excitement.

"Tell me, where is Lao Tzu sorry for you, I have let you eat and drink well all these years, if it wasn't for my dad pulling your family, your mother would have died of illness a long time ago, and now come and tell me that you want a divorce? No way! The male ** scolded angrily, and he was so angry that he almost didn't smash the table.

The waiter who had handed the menu to Xingchen before walked over and said cautiously, "This gentleman...... By doing so, you will affect the dining of other guests. ”

"Get out, do you need to take care of Lao Tzu's family affairs?" The man raised his eyebrows, rudely pushed the waiter away, walked over to the woman who was huddled in the chair and cried, and pulled her up, "Cry, cry, you know how to cry, cry another one for Lao Tzu to see?" ”

The woman was frightened and hurriedly stopped crying, but tears continued to flow out, her face was yellow and thin, her body was very thin, and her black hair was originally meticulously combed, but it was already messy under the man's pull.

Xingchen was a little unbearable, glanced at the angry man, and whispered to Bai Yu: "This person is too much, how can he say such a thing to his wife in public?" ”

But somehow, this happened to reach the man's ears.

The man put down the woman, walked in front of Xingchen with a cold face, pulled Xingchen by the collar and lifted her up, Rao is Xingchen himself was startled, and his eyes were wide open and he didn't dare to speak.

This man was born burly and tall, with dark skin, but his appearance was handsome, but unfortunately, at this moment, his eyes exuded a cold light, which made people feel frightened.

Bai Yu's eyes dimmed, stood up awkwardly, and grabbed the man's hand: "This gentleman, please respect yourself." ”

The man snorted: "Self-respect? I'm taking care of my housework, and this little girl chewed the root of her tongue to me? ”

"Handle the housework, please also ask the husband to go home and deal with it, right? It's public! Bai Yu's voice also sank, exuding a compelling aura, such a Bai Yu was very unfamiliar, even Xingchen felt a trace of fear.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm not going to say divorce anymore, husband, let's go back......" The woman before suddenly walked over, took the man's hand, and pleaded with a pleading face.

When the man heard this, his face softened a little, and he had a strong smell of alcohol, presumably because he had drunk wine before, and he would go crazy directly when he was excited.

The man glanced at the situation in the hot pot restaurant, everyone was staring at this side at this time, and he couldn't hold his face for a while, and said, "Go back and clean you up." Then he left alone, ignoring the woman.

The waiter who was pushed to the ground by the man before was anxious and hurriedly shouted, "Sir, you haven't paid yet!" ”

"I'll give ......" The woman sighed, took out the money from her bag, smiled at the stars again, and then followed behind the man, and walked away quickly.

Xingchen frowned and looked at the back of the couple, just now she saw that the woman's face was full of scars, needless to say, it must have been caused by the man's domestic violence.

Alas, it is indeed a sin for a woman to marry such a husband.

Xingchen was inexplicably a little sentimental, and today she also felt that she had a strange reaction, that woman had nothing to do with herself, just like the man said, this was their family matter, and it was not her turn to take care of it, but she didn't know why, she always felt that woman was very pitiful, so she couldn't help but say it out loud.

This farce did not last long, it subsided, and everyone began to eat hot pot by themselves again, and the hot pot restaurant returned to a lively atmosphere.

"Chen'er, don't worry about this kind of thing in the future, if you are the only one today, that man still doesn't know what he will do to you, such a person, life is not satisfactory, he will blame all this on the people around him, and it is not strange." Bai Yu thought about it, and still said something to Xingchen.

Xingchen nodded, silent, she was still thinking about the scene just now, and she didn't know what happened to that woman......

After enjoying the hot pot, Xingchen forgot about what he had just done as soon as he was in a good mood.

Bai Yu took her around the city center a few more times, and seeing that the time was almost up, he took her to the scene of the award ceremony.

The award ceremony was held in the showroom of a well-known design firm, and media reporters had already gathered at the door, waiting to catch the first-hand news.

Xingchen had no choice but to follow Bai Yu and walk in through the back door.

Xingchen was taken directly to the champion's exclusive waiting room, which is not only spacious and bright, but also has some designs by other designers over the years to view.

Such a design competition has been held almost every year in recent years, organized by the world-renowned Xinglian design company, Xingchen did not have much interest in the competition of domestic design companies in the past, but in recent years, through the introduction of several netizens, she also participated, as expected, she is the first place.

In foreign countries, Xingchen uses her own English name to participate in the competition, and in China she uses her real name, so as soon as the list of winners of this competition comes out, she is more like a dark horse born out of thin air in the eyes of everyone.

The award ceremony will take about 20 minutes, and Xingchen will wander around the waiting room bored, looking at the award-winning works over the years.

Bai Yu sat on the sofa next to him, picked up a magazine on the coffee table and flipped through it, but his face was not very good.

At this moment, there was two taps on the door, and then a woman walked in, holding two cups of coffee in her hand, on the coffee table beside her, and prepared to go out.

Xingchen glanced at her, felt a little familiar, and stepped forward to stop her, and the woman turned back in confusion, glanced at Xingchen, and couldn't help but be stunned.

Xingchen was also a little stunned, this woman turned out to be the one he saw in the hot pot restaurant before.

"Auntie, are you alright, your ...... Your husband didn't bully you anymore, did he? Xingchen was very sympathetic to this woman, so he walked over and asked with concern, Bai Yu also looked up when he heard the movement here, and his eyes were surprised.

The woman hurriedly lowered her head, biting her lip and not speaking. Xingchen saw that there was a bruise on her forehead, which looked like it had just been added, and her gaze moved down, and she saw that this woman was wearing the company's work clothes, which should be doing miscellaneous cleaning work, and on the side of the chest of the work clothes, there was a nameplate with the words "Qin Sisi" written on it.

This name made Xingchen feel a little familiar, but after all, there was nothing special about the name Qin Sisi, it was relatively common, so he didn't think much about it.

"Thank you, Miss for your concern, it's all some family matters, there's nothing to say, I still have work to do, so I'll go out first." Qin Sisi smiled bitterly, nodded gratefully at Xingchen, then said nothing more, turned around and left.

Xingchen looked at her back and was slightly distracted, knowing that she hadn't come back to her senses after leaving the waiting room.

The cleaning aunts invited by companies like this are usually women in their thirties and forties, but this Qin Sisi looks sallow and wrinkled, but she seems to be almost fifty years old.

"You're quite close to her." Bai Yu said softly.

Xingchen nodded and said, "Yes, I also think I'm quite close to her, it seems that I've met her somewhere, Brother Bai Yu, do you think she used to be our family's maid?" It's just like Aunt Li. ”

"No, the servants of large families have special training institutions, and they are selected after thousands of selections, and that person has such a husband in the family just now, and your daddy and mommy will never let her enter your house." Bai Yu explained.

Xingchen was a little puzzled, since she was not a maid who had worked in her family, how could she have an inexplicable sense of familiarity, she had never been out before, and it was impossible to see others......

After resting in the waiting room for a while, someone came to spread the word that the award ceremony had begun.

Xingchen sorted out her image, then walked out of the waiting room with a smile, and Bai Yu followed her to the audience.

On the podium, countless spotlights gathered, the shutter sound continued one after another, and the host introduced this year's winning works with flying eyebrows, and the audience erupted in warm applause.

Xingchen was inexplicably a little apprehensive in his heart, although he had participated in countless shooting competitions and won countless trophies, it was the first time he really stood on the stage to accept the award.

So, the host said that at the end, when the champion was called to come out to receive the award, Xingchen was tragically stuck, and she was in a daze, unaware that the host was shouting her name with a sweaty face.

"It seems that our champion Miss Xingchen is a shy girl, why don't you give us some more applause and encouragement?" The host was rounded with a black line, and at the same time desperately overlooked the backstage.

The staff sensed that something was wrong, so they pushed the star, which was so nervous that he couldn't move.

Xingchen was almost pushed onto the podium by the staff, so that Xingchen still looked abrupt when he was exposed to the lights of the media.

In the shadow of the auditorium, the tall man standing still in place couldn't help but laugh.

This girl, even if she is reincarnated, this stunned little appearance is still so interesting.

Xingchen stood stupidly in place and looked at the countless cameras in a daze, and the host hurriedly said: "It's really called for a thousand times, Miss Xingchen, please come to the stage to receive the award." ”

With the host's reminder, Xingchen came back to his senses, but his face was red for a moment.

She...... What is she doing, why did she suddenly start to be stunned on such an important occasion?

But Xingchen is a little beauty after all, although she is in a daze in front of the camera, she shows a noble temperament, so the audience present did not feel strange, but became interested in this 16-year-old girl.
