"What are you talking about? I'm not you. I'm closer to outsiders than my own son. How could I not care about my own son?"
Although Mark has heard some clues, it is impossible not to refute Ling Mingyu.
"Do I care about you? I care about so many things about you, do you even listen to any of them?"
Ling Mingyu is also very good at only half-listening to what is said. People who are good at taking quotes out of context are also good at finding faults.
"You've been in charge of me so much. Did you consider one thing from my standpoint? Since it's not for my sake, why are you in charge of me?
And what we are talking about now is, do you care about my problem? What we are talking about is, I don’t care about Manao’s problem.”
"What you're saying is that you don't care about Ma Nao. I think you've let your little girlfriend become obsessed with her. She's so obsessed with you that your family doesn't want her, and her children don't want her either."
Although a short period of time has passed, Ling Mingyu is still full of resentment towards Wang Xiaomi and will throw the blame away to Wang Xiaomi whenever possible.
"When you talk about things, can you just mess around and make use of the topic? What does it have to do with Wang Xiaomi that I didn't go to pick up Manao? It's because I had something to do at school, so I took the students to practice more, and invited Ma Li to pick them up. This is correct.
What is the lack of care?"
"Grandma, Dad, can you two stop choking? It's been a long time since our family had a meal together and talked. Can we stay together peacefully for a while?"
Seeing that the two people were talking more and more fiercely, Ma Li tried to stop them again just like the previous times.
"Okay, Lily, I'll give you this face today."
Just when Mark thought Ma Li would be scolded by Ling Mingyu again, Ling Mingyu went against the grain and listened to Ma Li's advice.
"..." Mark was ready to persuade Ma Li to stay away from the center of right and wrong, and stay away to avoid being splashed with blood. Now Ling Mingyu was so contrasted that he almost dodge Mark, so he could only say angrily: "You guys chat, I will contact your mother."
Mark walked to the sofa and sat down, took out his mobile phone, and wanted to ask Tianye why he had invited Ling Mingyu to him.
Mark's 200 people have all invested in Tianye. How can Tianye be worthy of Mark's investment if he cheats himself so much?
Even if Ye Tianye didn't know it, Mark also provided financial support with real money. Even if he didn't know it, the favor was definitely there.
"Why are you contacting Tianye? Don't you know that she has a lot of things to do at the store opening today?"
Ling Mingyu followed Mark and stared at Mark. Seeing Mark take out his mobile phone to make a call, Ling Mingyu stopped Mark, but this time her tone and attitude were much gentler.
"I asked her why she said she would bring the agate to me, and why she asked you to pick someone up again."
After the divorce was made clear, Tian Ye had taken care to keep a distance from Ling Mingyu.
Not to mention that I don’t go to the courtyard so frequently anymore. If possible, I will ask Ling Mingyu to help as little as possible.
Several times when something happened, I always threw the agate to Mark.
"Stop asking, I'll explain this to you."
Mark put away his phone and looked at Ling Mingyu, waiting for an explanation.
"She told me to pick up Manao, and then she said she didn't need me to pick him up... I wasn't too relieved, so I went to pick up Manao myself."
The whole process was that Tian Tian notified Mark first, and Mark asked Tian Tian to wait.
Tian Tian contacted Ling Mingyu again to pick him up. After Mark said it was okay, Tian Tian rejected Ling Mingyu again.
Ling Mingyu knew that she was not needed, so she ran to the kindergarten and picked up Manao.
"Since you know everything, why are you so angry with me as soon as I enter the house?"
It was clear that he had done something wrong and yet he could still be so confident. Mark didn't understand it.
"I thought you were dating your little girlfriend."
Ling Mingyu's face froze, and she explained to Mark with some apology.
"Oh...I'm going to cook."
Mark originally wanted to say that he was single and had the freedom to love.
Even if she was dating Wang Xiaomi and entrusted Ma Li to pick up Ma Nao, Ling Mingyu had no reason to get angry.
But talking about it would inevitably lead to another argument, so Mark didn't say anything.
Ling Mingyu is so stubborn, Mark no longer expects change.
"Mark, you never realized that your craftsmanship is quite good?"
It was the first time in several months that Ling Mingyu ate food cooked by Mark.
After moving out from the field, Ling Mingyu spent time at Mark's house for the first time.
Rarely, some kind words about Mark came out of Ling Mingyu's mouth.
Even if it is true, Mark does not have other advantages. Ling Mingyu has never seen them.
"Fortunately, raising Ma Li and Ma Li are no problem."
Mark replied casually.
"Are you very busy these days?" Ling Mingyu continued to ask.
"good."
Regarding Ling Mingyu's question, Mark mainly asked an ambiguous question. How could he answer the question without asking it?
"What I want to say is, isn't Manao back? If you don't have time in the past two days, Manao can be taken over by me, and Lily will also go to my place for dinner."
"No, I'll take care of the two of them. Today is an extra practice scheduled with my classmates in advance, so I can't change it casually, so I let Lily go. In the next few days, I will arrange extra practice after school, and I will pick up Manao when I have time.
.”
Mark suspected that Ling Mingyu was playing tricks on him.
If she really agreed, Ling Mingyu would have a reason to convince Mark regardless of his son's name.
The next time he brought this up, Mark was unable to refute.
"Wouldn't that delay your classmates' training? The school has never assigned you any tasks. It's hard to give you a task, and you have to complete it well."
Ling Mingyu said as if she was thinking about Mark.
"There is no delay. The league has reached a critical stage. There is no problem in taking out a few self-study classes for extra practice."
If possible, Mark would not want to take up these students' cultural class time.
But if it is really necessary, it won’t be a big problem to take up a few classes.
Even if you get the ranking, you won't get the previous preferential treatment of extra points in the college entrance examination.
But since most of them are sports students, they have good rankings.
When participating in the single-recruitment school recruitment, you still have advantages and it will not be completely wasted.
"Mark, it's okay to leave the child to me." Ling Mingyu said in a persuasive way.
"No, Manao is quite noisy at his age. You see how skinny he is now. You are not in good health either, so don't let him torment you."
Ling Mingyu had a good attitude, and Mark was more sincere.
It is indeed a bit reluctant to let Ling Mingyu carry Ma Nao for a long time.
Manao became naughty and ran away, Ling Mingyu couldn't chase her away even if she wanted to.
"Mark, I haven't been with the children for a long time."
Ling Mingyu suddenly became serious and sad, and Mark realized that the problem might be different from what he imagined:
"Do you feel that the children spend less time with you?"
Mark asked while trying to talk, a little aware that Ling Mingyu might be a little lonely, so she had nothing to do.
No one paid attention to me for a long time, and I felt a little bored by myself, so I used Mark as a joke.
"What do you think?"
Although Ling Mingyu asked Mark in return, she actually answered in the affirmative.
"This is normal. How can a child stay with his parents all the time when he is older? You have to get used to this kind of thing. After a long time, you will get used to it."
Mark couldn't be the master of two children, and Ma Li didn't continue to hang out with Mark all day long, so she could only advise Ling Mingyu to adapt more.
If that doesn't work, you can find a wife. Mark is absolutely open-minded and won't disagree with this or that.
"Grandma, I didn't visit you less. It was after Manao lived with my mother that I didn't visit you less."
Ma Li answered, somewhat disgusted with the blame.
In fact, after Ma Li has a credit card and can solve the problem of eating by herself, the need to go to the courtyard is much less.
Then every time after going there, Ling Mingyu's attitude was not good, especially when she went with Mark. She was implicated every time, so it was normal for Ma Li to reduce the frequency.
In the past, it would have taken a long time to go there, and it would take two hours to eat and play.
Now I go there once, and it lasts no more than a quarter of an hour. I put down the gifts, say a few simple greetings, and then leave. It’s normal for the old lady to feel a little different.
"Grandma, I want to see you, but my mother doesn't want me to trouble you."
Seeing Ma Li's explanation, Manao followed.
Manao's words sounded like he was trying to shirk the blame, but he should be sincere.
According to Mark's understanding, this son doesn't have much foresight yet.
Ling Mingyu had been helping take care of Ma Nao before, and she and Ma Nao still got along.
"Lily, you haven't gone out with grandma for a long time."
Manao, if you miss me, just ask your mother to send you here. Just tell your mother that it is no trouble for grandma to take care of her grandson.
Mark, I want to bring a piece of agate with me in the past two days, can you just say that?"
After Ling Mingyu finished speaking to the two children, she started talking to Mark again.
"Okay, you can take your grandson away whenever you want. But if you insist on taking the child away, don't tell me again. I don't care about Manao's problem."
Although Mark could see that Ling Mingyu really wanted to bring Ma Nao, he still had to add one more thing.
To prevent the two of them from quarreling in the future, Ling Mingyu brought this up to talk about it.
Even though Ling Mingyu didn't wear Ma Nao, Ma Nao still maintained her original rhythm of life without any change.
When Tian Ye picked them up, they also picked them up directly from the kindergarten.
Mark didn't even see the child or his mother.
It can be said that entrusting the child to Mark this time has no impact at all.
While at school, Mark was busy with classes and the basketball team.
After get off work, I went on a date with Wang Xiaomi, which was more fun.
"It's broken... it's broken... it's broken, uncle." Wang Xiaomi started shouting at Mark as soon as he got in the car.
"What important thing is broken and makes you so worried? Is there anything for sale? Let's buy a new one?"
Mark said to the startled Wang Xiaomi.
Because of his youth, Wang Xiaomi has great mood swings. Mark thinks that Wang Xiaomi will have big mood changes even if it is a small matter.
So you can't tell from emotions alone whether it's a big deal or a small matter. The bad guy is probably just a little doll.
"It's not something that's broken, it's my mother."
"Isn't your mother always in good health?"
Mark asked in shock.
Not to mention the understanding I usually get from Wang Xiaomi, but also the understanding I got from opening my clairvoyance. Wang Xiaomi's mother has always been in good health and has never had any problems.
"It's not that my mother is sick. Bah, bah, bah, my mother won't get sick. It's that my mother wants to meet my new boyfriend."
Wang Xiaomi is also a pretty fashionable girl, but sometimes she is very traditional.
For example, when it comes to things that are auspicious or unlucky, or when there are taboos, they are more traditional than Mark.
"Where did you get your new boyfriend?"
"Aren't you my new boyfriend?"
"Yes, it's me." What Mark wanted to ask just now was when Wang Xiaomi reported the situation: "It's me, but when did you tell your mother about this?"
"It's complicated to explain this matter."
"Then let's find a place to sit down and talk slowly."
Wang Xiaomi's mother wanted to see Mark. For Mark, she had been prepared for it and it was not something he couldn't accept.
"This starts with Dai Anfen..."
To put it simply, Wang Xiaomi had already told her family that she had a new boyfriend.
Because Wang Xiaomi’s mother, Wang Lanfang, helped Wang Xiaomi introduce Dr. Zhang.
So Wang Lanfang acquiesced that Wang Xiaomi was in love with Dr. Zhang Zhang Tianzuo.
Now it has been revealed that Dr. Zhang is a scumbag.
The fiancee found the "third party" Dai Anfen.
When Dai Anfen was wronged, Wang Xiaomi, the introducer, could not avoid helping to hold him accountable.
Wang Xiaomi went to Wang Lanfang to ask for an explanation, and Wang Lanfang went to the introducer, Lao Zhang, to settle the score.
It was revealed that Dr. Zhang was not Wang Xiaomi’s boyfriend.
There was no way to hide the fact that Mark was Wang Xiaomi's boyfriend.
"This doctor is such a scumbag!"
Mark sighed to Dr. Zhang, Mark just wanted to have sex.
Dr. Zhang wants a lot. His girlfriend is an American and he wants to use marriage to get a green card.
Eating soft food, but also being a scumbag, wanting all the good things.
"He is really nothing. An Fen will be pissed off by him."
"No, it's not like that. I met a liar. I thought it was a lesson. At least I'm fine. I ran away with someone so blindly and didn't get hurt."
Mark was sure that Dai Anfen was not emotionally invested, so he wouldn't be too sad.
After only a few days of knowing each other, I dared to go abroad with him.
We were just approached by our original spouse and humiliated, which is already a very light consequence.
"How come she didn't lose her job for that scumbag?"
This is what happened before. The best time for a man to attack a woman is when she is traveling alone with her.
As an old scumbag, Dr. Zhang is certainly familiar with all kinds of tricks.
While I was going to a meeting in a foreign country, I invited Dai Anfen to go with me.
Dai Anfen saw the basic conditions for coveting Dr. Zhang and was very willing to develop further with Dr. Zhang.
I happily accepted Dr. Zhang’s invitation.
When Han Jinlong was jealous, he was unwilling to approve Dai Anfen's fake work.
Dai Anfen thought he had a long-term meal ticket, so he fired Han Jinlong directly and refused to work as a part-time worker again.
"Work or not, isn't it just a matter of Lao Han's words? As far as Lao Han's feelings towards Dai Anfen and Sima Zhao are concerned, how can he refuse Dai Anfen to come back to work?"
"Their affairs are not urgent now. What is urgent is that my mother wants to see you."
"If you want to see me, just see me. Sooner or later, you will have to see me. If you continue to delay, your mother will not be able to accept me more easily."
Wang Xiaomi's mother, Wang Lanfang, could not be more difficult to deal with than Ling Mingyu.
