"Is it because I didn't let you go and you refused to listen and insisted on going, so I cut off your living expenses?"
Mark had no purpose in asking this, he just had some curiosity.
"I can't transfer this card." Qiu Feng's face darkened, and he turned around to leave, as if he had been told right by Mark.
"Why are you so temperamental? You can't even ask me. You don't want any money, and you have such a big hatred for money. You can't even say this. If it's your son, I can't give you living expenses."
Mark held Qiu Feng's shoulders and didn't let Qiu Feng go.
"Don't take advantage of me. It's because of you that my living expenses are cut off."
Qiu Feng shook off Mark's hand, but did not continue to try to escape. It seemed that he was really short of money.
"Qiu Feng, no matter how our relationship is, what do you think of me? I still recognized your character before. Now your character has begun to have problems. Have you learned to be unreasonable?"
Among the rich second generation, Qiu Feng is definitely not bad, he is already a very harmless one.
"Who is being unreasonable? If I say it's because of you, it must be because of you. Specifically...why it's because of you, I'm too lazy to tell you."
"Okay, don't tell me if you don't tell me. Do you think I can't guess it if you don't tell me? Give me your card and I'll try to transfer it to you at a higher price."
Seeing how tough Qiu Feng was, Mark believed him a little.
If Qiu Feng was really cut off from his living expenses because of Mark.
The only reason is that Qiu Feng and Mark worked out together, especially looking for a boxing coach outside for additional training. They spent too much money, tens of thousands of dollars, for sure.
Of course, this penny is certainly not much for Qiu Feng.
Being cut off from support, there is no doubt that Qiu Feng made his parents unhappy.
This brings us back to the problem of Qiu Feng running to Wang Xiaomi's house every day.
This family was not that receptive to Wang Xiaomi in the first place, so they reluctantly accepted it after they objected to no avail.
The two finally broke up, but Qiu Feng still wanted to get back together.
The old couple will definitely not be happy.
"What do you mean the price is higher?" Qiu Feng asked confusedly. He looked like someone who had never done such a thing.
"Then let me put it another way. I'll try to save you as little loss as possible."
"There are still losses."
The rich second generation also started to care about everything.
"If it's the same thing, why don't they just do it in the store instead of transferring you a second-hand card?"
Direct after-sales service is definitely more guaranteed than a transferred card.
"Okay, a little bit is a little bit." Qiu Feng compromised.
With Qiu Feng so poor, Mark felt more at ease. With this economic situation, Qiu Feng couldn't do anything to please Wang Lanfang.
After transferring the card to Qiu Feng, Mark didn't stay in the gym for too long.
After a little exercise, I went home early and started cooking.
Originally, father and daughter did not spend much time eating together.
On the rare days when there is no date, Mark must go home early.
"Dad, you have been quite happy during this time, right?"
"It's not bad. Your life... is not very good, is it?"
Mark wanted to ask politely, but after thinking about it for a while, he realized that Ma Li didn't seem to be living a very good life these days.
There is much less time to go out and play, which is proof.
"You just found out." Ma Li rolled her eyes at Mark and said.
"I have discovered a long time ago that you are not very happy in the second half of each semester."
Mark spoke harshly without revealing his guilty conscience.
Being unhappy in the second half of the semester is a common problem among bad students, and they worry about exams.
Of course, Ma Li is not as happy as when she first started school, which cannot be separated from the many things at home.
"Is my unhappiness only related to my studies? We agreed that you would help me with my homework. How many times have you helped me with my homework after we agreed?"
Ma Li obviously disliked Mark again and refused to go home.
"You didn't even call me. I thought you could keep up with your studies during this period."
Mark really thinks so. He has never felt that learning is so difficult.
"Don't I have questions only when I am doing my homework? You are not at home when I am doing my homework. How can I ask you?"
"Let's do this. Unless there are special circumstances, I will go home before nine o'clock every day. You will also start doing your homework. If there are any problems, we will solve them in time."
Mark thought for a moment and replied.
Mark was already aware of the problem of not having enough time to spend with Ma Li. Ma Li made another suggestion, so Mark added some more time.
For a date between two people, try to end it before nine o'clock. Although Wang Xiaomi was a little unhappy, she still chose to accommodate.
After all, Mark has two regular weekend breaks every week.
During weekend breaks, Mark would usually accompany Wang Xiaomi when he went to work.
The focus of dating between two people is mainly on weekends, not on daily basis.
"Second uncle, I don't want to live at home anymore."
"What's wrong? Doesn't your mother restrict your freedom?"
For Mark, it was quite unexpected that Wang Xiaomi didn't want to go home this time.
"Didn't you hear Uncle Zhang report this to you?"
"What's the matter? Your mother doesn't care about me anymore. How can Uncle Zhang care about me?"
After Wang Lanfang stopped paying so much attention to Mark, Lao Zhangtou stopped reporting to Mark in detail.
Maybe he felt that Mark didn't like Wang Lanfang and couldn't do anything to help him.
Lao Zhangtou didn't care that much about Mark.
"My mother now calls Uncle Zhang and Qiu Feng home all day long. The three of us play and eat together, living like a family of three. She excludes me and makes me feel like an outsider. I don't want to stay at home anymore.
."
"Can't?" Mark doubted.
What Wang Xiaomi is saying is that Ling Mingyu is pretty much the same, being closer to others than to her own children.
Wang Xiaomi is Wang Lanfang's lifeblood, no matter how hard it seems, this situation will never happen.
"Even if it doesn't happen every day, it happens often. She cooks a large table of dishes every time. She even posts it on WeChat Moments. Let me show you."
Wang Xiaomi clicked on her phone and showed Mark Wang Lanfang’s social software.
This old lady is actually quite fashionable, at least more fashionable than Ling Mingyu. She is good at playing various software and can even post on Moments.
Mark recognized that this was a dining table he bought himself. Wang Lanfang had set it full and cooked at least ten dishes. It was indeed quite luxurious for three people to eat. It could definitely be called a feast.
"Second uncle, what kind of craftsmanship are you looking at? No matter how much you look at it, you won't be able to eat it. I can't even eat it. Can she still let you eat it?"
Wang Xiaomi looked really angry at Wang Lanfang's behavior.
Whenever Mark praised Wang Lanfang, Wang Xiaomi didn't like hearing it at first.
"Xiaomi, don't be so angry first. Think about it, is it possible that your mother has some ulterior motive for doing this?"
"What is she trying to do? She just wants to make me angry, right?"
Playing tricks with Wang Xiaomi is actually not suitable for too many twists and turns. Wang Xiaomi is too lazy to think about it.
"How could she want to make you angry? At most, she just wants you to know what kind of life you will live after Mom doesn't care about you."
"I can be fine without her." This is obviously an angry statement.
"Then why are you jealous now?"
Being so jealous shows that Wang Xiaomi cares about this mother very much.
"My mother wants me to bow down to her."
Wang Xiaomi reacted.
Ever since Mark went to the Wang family, the relationship between mother and daughter has not been very good.
The key lies in the differences in attitude towards Mark.
Even if Wang Lanfang is "impressed" by Chao's ability, takes advantage of others, and doesn't directly trouble Mark, it definitely does not mean that he supports him.
I always want to start with Wang Xiaomi and solve the problem from the root.
"Otherwise, she wouldn't bother with all this. She would have to cook for every meal. How troublesome it would be."
Mark affirmed Wang Xiaomi’s idea.
"If I bow my head like this, she wants us to break up."
"If you don't bow your head, you won't bow your head, but there is no need to be so angry. What do you mean by moving out of your home?"
Nothing had happened, but Wang Xiaomi was moving out, and Mark was worried that Wang Lanfang was targeting him again.
"Am I just going to see them so angry at me every day?"
"Xiaomi, believe me, they won't last long, just stay away from them these days."
Having to sell pork and cook so many dishes every day, Mark didn't believe that Wang Lanfang had more free time than him.
"How to avoid it?"
"Give me your cell phone."
Mark directly helped Wang Xiaomi block Wang Lanfang’s circle of friends.
This is pretty standard out of sight, out of mind.
Wang Xiaomi actually doesn't eat much at home. The main reason why he gets angry is because he looks at Moments.
"Second uncle, you're just fooling me like this."
Wang Xiaomi was obviously dissatisfied with this handling method.
The girl doesn't understand any detours at all, and she always goes straight to the point when encountering problems.
"If I can't see you, just pretend I don't know. You can't take everything seriously in your life. It's rare to be confused, you know. As long as our relationship is stable, no matter how we act, there will be no drama."
If Mark doesn't pay attention to Wang Lanfang now, it means that Wang Lanfang supports two people.
"Second uncle, are you and Ma Li moving?"
"Yes... we will move in a few days after the holidays." Mark said hesitantly.
Mark and Ma Li are moving to a new home, and Wang Xiaomi is moving out of home. It is difficult not to let Mark have some associations. Wang Xiaomi has always been anxious and stable: "How do you know?
"Do you need to listen to anyone? I've guessed it. Your house has been renovated for so long, and it's almost the end of the year. It's time to move."
This proves that Wang Xiaomi can be very smart when he wants to.
As long as Wang Xiaomi is serious, he is not a brainless person who is easily fooled.
"Well, that's what I thought too."
"Then when you move, I will help you?"
"Okay, actually there is nothing to move, just some daily necessities."
The new house is already in a ready-to-move-in condition, and most of the things in the house are now unnecessary, so moving into the house is easy.
"Then you should also be a housewarmer. You need to be popular when moving to a new house."
"You're right."
Although Mark admitted that Wang Xiaomi was right.
But Mark wasn't going to invite anyone.
Mark's largest social circle is his school colleagues.
When most of the teachers in the school are not allocated rooms, and others come to help warm the rooms, the only emotions that can arise are sourness.
"Second uncle, these are the flowers for you."
On New Year's Day, Wang Xiaomi came to Mark's house early. This time was already beyond Wang Xiaomi's usual working hours, so it was definitely an early start.
"I haven't given them to you yet, so why are you still sending them to me? I'm sending you two bouquets of flowers."
Seeing the flowers in Wang Xiaomi's hand, Mark wondered if this was Wang Xiaomi's hint to him.
You should also send flowers on New Year’s Day, after all, it is considered a big holiday.
"Isn't this your new home? I have to bring you something. You don't need anything, so I bought you flowers. These two bouquets are not just for you, but there is also a bouquet from Lily."
"It's just me being sentimental. I'll call you Lily." Mark breathed a sigh of relief. It was just a hint. He didn't like any festival to have a sense of ritual: "Lily."
"Lily hasn't she gotten up yet?"
"I'm cleaning up in the room."
After all, Ma Li is a girl, even a little girl is still a girl.
The things that need to be brought there, all kinds of bits and pieces, are much more than Mark's.
In addition, there were some things belonging to Manao in the room, and Ma Li also had to help pack them there, so there was more to pack.
"I'll go help her."
"I can do it myself. If you really want to help, just go help my dad clean it up."
Hearing Mark's shout, Ma Li walked out of the room. She happened to hear Wang Xiaomi asking for help, and immediately refused, still so unwilling to accept Wang Xiaomi's kindness.
If the two were first friends, this would never have happened. Ma Li should have directly brought Wang Xiaomi to the room.
"Lily, the flowers your sister Xiaomi gave you."
"The flowers are beautiful, thank you. I'll go back and clean them up first."
Now Ma Li's attitude towards Wang Xiaomi can be summed up as polite.
"Second uncle, do you want to pack your things?"
"Okay, come and help me."
Mark actually doesn't have much, just some ordinary clothes, which can be packed in two or three suitcases.
Mark can take care of it on his own, but it will definitely embarrass Wang Xiaomi, and coming so early can’t help him at all.
"Second uncle, have you bought a piano?"
Wang Xiaomi came to Mark's new home before it was fully furnished, but he hasn't come since.
When buying furniture, Wang Xiaomi participated a lot. Now when you go to a new house, you must visit it first, and the most eye-catching thing in the house is the addition of a piano.
"I just bought it a few days ago, are you also interested in it?"
Mark actually took advantage of a good time to buy a piano. After the popularity of this thing stopped, the price naturally became much more normal, not as high as before.
"It's okay, second uncle, can you play?"
Mark felt that Wang Xiaomi was indifferent.
"I can't, I bought this for Lily."
Mark can only play a few simple pieces of music, at a beginner level, and has never seriously played an instrument in his life.
"It's so expensive to buy this, why don't you buy me a guitar."
Ma Li is actually not that grateful for buying a piano.
This girl has become crazy about guitar recently.
Even though I don’t know how, I just like it.
This is enough to prove that the music style that Ma Li likes is more popular than classical.
"I promised you the piano before, but I didn't promise to buy you the guitar. If you want a guitar, you'll have to get good grades at the end of this semester."
A decent guitar costs several thousand yuan, which is more than the amount Ma Li usually spends on her credit card.
It's not easy to find something to catch Ma Li, Mark must use it.
