Wang Gang had long expected that Ye Tian would bring up the issue of custody again.
Ever since Wang Gang and Wang Xiaomi fell in love, Tian Ye has always been sour and a little unwilling.
Wang Gang guessed that she regretted the hasty divorce.
As Wang Gang got better and better, buying luxury cars and moving into a big house, things got worse and worse in the field. Zhao Ling's medical expenses almost spent all the money they had.
In order to take care of Zhao Ling, Tian Ye's work was also affected. In short, nothing good happened to her after the divorce.
"How is Zhao Ling doing recently? Has he lived with you? Where will Ma Li move over to sleep?" Wang Gang's light words made Tian Tian feel uncomfortable.
"Ma Li can sleep with me." Tian Tian said unwillingly: "The house I rent has two rooms."
Wang Gang asked again: "Would Zhao Ling be willing to live with Ma Li? Hasn't he still not forgiven Ma Li?"
Tian Ye was completely silent.
Ma Li also understood that with her mother's current conditions, it was impossible to live together.
"Mom, I won't dare to do it again. Don't worry! I will listen to my father." Ma Li comforted Tian Tian.
Tian Ye sighed, held his daughter's hand, glanced at Wang Xiaomi who went to the kitchen to pour water, and said, "Is that Wang Xiaomi okay with you?"
"Well, Sister Xiaomi is very good to me and takes good care of me." Ma Li smiled.
Tian Ye felt more and more sad when he saw the bright smile on his daughter's face.
"What about Manao? Does he like Wang Xiaomi?" Tian Ye asked again.
"Of course I do. Manao likes to play with Sister Xiaomi the most, and she doesn't stick to me much now." Ma Li said with a pout.
Tian Ye couldn't bear it anymore, turned away and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
"That's good. You should be tired today. Go to bed early. I'll go back first." Tian Ye stood up and called to Wang Gang:
"I'm leaving first. I'll pick up the children and go out to play when I'm free."
Wang Gang said casually: "Be careful on the road. How is Zhao Ling adapting to the prosthesis?"
Tian Tian's heart twitched and became even more sad.
Zhao Ling's newly ordered prosthetic leg has been installed, and the manufacturer has sent an engineer to follow up. However, the salesman did not say at the beginning that all after-sales services would require payment.
The 1.2 million that Zhao Ling gave him had been spent long ago, and Tian Ye was using his own money to support Zhao Ling.
However, Zhao Ling promised that when he gets back on his feet, he will immediately find investors and start the company again. When the time comes, he will pay back tenfold and a hundredfold of what Tianye has paid.
Tianye still has confidence in Zhao Ling. It is not impossible for him to start from scratch and earn hundreds of millions of wealth, and to make a comeback in the future.
It's just that every time he swipes his credit card, Tian Ye still inevitably feels heartache.
In order to pay for Zhao Ling's huge treatment expenses, Tian Ye had to sell his original car.
Not long ago, a colleague wanted to open a beauty salon with her as a partner. It was because of money that Tian Ye refused. Every time she thought about it, she would sigh.
When I got divorced, Tianye wanted to start a business, but I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity now, but because of Zhao Ling, I missed it.
Wang Gang sent Tianye out in person, but he had no intention of sending her home, and asked her to take the subway back by herself.
After closing the door, Wang Gang walked to Ma Li's room. At this time, Ma Nao was already asleep with Ling Mingyu's company.
Wang Gang came to Ma Li to ask about Qiu Feng, but he didn't expect that Wang Xiaomi had already approached Ma Li first.
"Lily, tell me honestly, do you like Qiu Feng?" Wang Xiaomi pulled Ma Li to sit on the bed and said seriously.
"No, I just like Qiu Feng's songs, not him." Ma Li said guiltily: "I know he is your ex-boyfriend."
Wang Xiaomi also came from Ma Li's age, and she can still recognize the star-chaser and the girl Huaichun.
"Well, it is precisely because Qiu Feng is my boyfriend that I know what kind of person he is and how attractive he is to young girls." Wang Xiaomi said seriously:
"Qiu Feng looks very good on the surface. He is handsome, has a good family background, and can sing well, but these are all superficial phenomena."
Ma Li asked strangely: "You spoke so well of Qiu Feng, how could you dump him and follow my dad?"
Wang Gang stopped and stood at the door of Ma Li's room.
"You! You are still young, and you don't know how to distinguish between good and bad men." Wang Xiaomi said:
"On the surface, Qiu Feng seems to be better than Teacher Ma in everything, but in fact you don't know your father."
Seeing Wang Xiaomi's happy face, Ma Li couldn't help but roll her eyes and said, "Why don't I see how my dad is better than Qiu Feng?"
"Qiu Feng is younger than him, richer than him, and more talented than him. How come they can't compete, right?"
Wang Xiaomi chuckled and said: "You are only looking at the surface. Qiu Feng is younger than Teacher Ma, but he is also much more naive than Teacher Ma.
As for being rich, the meaning is different if a man has one million and gives you 90,000, and if he has 100,000 and gives you 90,000."
"What about talent?" Ma Li said unwillingly: "Qiu Feng is definitely more talented than my dad!"
Wang Xiaomi asked strangely: "Have you ever heard your dad sing? I think he sings much better than Qiu Feng!"
"My dad can also sing?" Ma Li asked curiously: "Isn't he a PE teacher? He's not a music teacher either!"
Wang Xiaomi smiled and said: "I will ask Teacher Ma to sing a song for you, and you will know his strength."
Wang Gang knew he was going to be in trouble as soon as he heard this, so he hurried back to the living room and sat down.
As expected, Wang Xiaomi dragged Ma Li out and shouted: "Teacher Ma, Ma Li said she has never heard you sing before, why don't you perform a song for him!"
"It's late at night, what kind of song are you singing? My mother and Manao are both asleep." Wang Gang said pretending.
"Sing a cappella song. Turn the music down a little. It shouldn't disturb Manao while he's sleeping." Wang Xiaomi said coquettishly:
"Just sing one! I haven't heard you sing for a long time."
Ma Li also shouted: "Old Ma, am I still your daughter? Sister Xiaomi has heard you sing, but I have never heard of you singing."
Wang Gang said helplessly: "Okay! I'll sing softly."
Wang Xiaomi excitedly took out his mobile phone, turned on the music player, and played the song "Relief of Sorrow".
Ma Li heard "Xiaochou" on TV and liked it very much at the time, but she couldn't tell what was good about it.
The moment Wang Gang sang along with the music, Ma Li finally understood why Wang Xiaomi strongly recommended her father to sing a song.
My father's voice is deep and magnetic, and he sings out all the emotions in the lyrics. Even people who don't know how to sing will be immersed in his singing.
Wang Xiaomi had long been fascinated by it, with an expression of admiration on his face.
After the song ended, it took Ma Li a long time to come back to her senses.
"Old Ma, I was almost shocked by you!" Ma Li took Wang Gang's arm and shouted: "You sing so well, why have I never heard you sing before?"
Wang Gang curled his lips, thinking that Mark was tone deaf in the past. He was the one who could sing, not Mark. Of course Ma Li had never heard of it.
"Lily, there are still many things you don't know!" Wang Xiaomi said excitedly: "Teacher Ma is not only good at singing, but his paintings are even more amazing."
Ma Li turned to look at her father in disbelief and asked: "Old Ma, can you still draw?"
Wang Xiaomi thought of something and immediately ran to Wang Gang's bedroom and took out a figure painting.
Ma Li discovered that the character in the painting was Wang Xiaomi, and the background was a picturesque mountain.
?Wang Xiaomi turned her back to the sun, dyeing her body golden.
"Is this painted by Lao Ma?" Ma Li took the painting and looked at it carefully.
Wang Xiaomi in the painting is extremely beautiful, like a goddess descending to earth, with an indescribable artistic conception vividly appearing on the page.
"Lao Ma, when did you have this skill? How come I never knew about it?" Ma Li said exaggeratedly.
"No matter how big or small, I am your dad, are you the one who called me Ma?" Wang Gang tapped Ma Li on the head with his finger and said, "I know a lot of things, and I need to tell you every one of them."
Wang Xiaomi said happily: "Lily, I didn't lie to you, your dad is really talented, he just doesn't show it usually."
Ma Li looked at Wang Gang suspiciously and asked, "Dad, you didn't deliberately ask the school art teacher to draw this painting just to chase Sister Xiaomi, right?"
"Of course not." Wang Xiaomi said happily: "I looked at your dad and spent an entire afternoon painting this painting with my own hands. I didn't even know I could be so beautiful."
Wang Gang smiled and said: "Lily, if you like it, I will draw a family portrait for our whole family and hang it at home."
"Okay! You must make me look more beautiful." Ma Li said happily.
After Wang Gang put Ma Li to sleep, he took Wang Xiaomi and sat on the sofa to talk.
"Thank you for helping me persuade Lily." Wang Gang hugged Wang Xiaomi and said in her ear:
"When the child is older, there are certain things that I, the father, may say that may have the opposite effect."
"Lily is actually very smart, but she still can't tell the difference between star chasing and secret love. I've been through that period before, and I'll understand it when I have more experience." Wang Xiaomi leaned on Wang Gang and said.
"Are you still leaving today?" Wang Gang's hand slowly moved to Wang Xiaomi's thin waist.
"I have to go back today." Wang Xiaomi held Wang Gang's hand to prevent him from continuing.
?"My mother warned me."
During this period, Wang Xiaomi stayed with Wang Gang when she had time. Her mother had already had objections and clamored for her daughter to bring her new boyfriend home to meet her.
"Is your mother urging you again?" Wang Gang said, "How about I go to your house to visit your mother?"
"Isn't it too fast?" Wang Xiaomi turned around, looked at Wang Gang's face and asked, "I'm worried that my mother won't agree with us."
Wang Gang knew what Wang Xiaomi was worried about.
"I'm not afraid, so what are you afraid of?" Wang Gang said dotingly, "Don't worry, I'm quite popular with my mother-in-law. Maybe your mother will like me?"
Wang Xiaomi said sadly: "Okay then, I'll go home and ask my mother."
"Then let's stay today." Wang Gang picked up Wang Xiaomi and walked directly to the bedroom.
Wang Xiaomi's cheeks turned red, acquiescing to Wang Gang's behavior.
The next day, Wang Xiaomi didn't get home until almost noon. When she walked in, she found her mother, Wang Lanfang, moving a chair and sitting at the door.
"Oh, my God! Why are you sitting at the door?" Wang Xiaomi patted her chest and said with a guilty conscience.
"Why did you come back? Where did you go last night?" Wang Lanfang asked.
Wang Xiaomi rolled his eyes and said, "I went to Triumph's house too late to play, so I slept at her place all night."
"You still want to lie to me." Wang Lanfang stood up excitedly, pointed at Wang Xiaomi's head and shouted: "I just called Triumph this morning, and she said you didn't even look for her last night."
When Wang Xiaomi heard this, she felt so angry! She thought that her best friend would stab her in the back.
"Mom, please listen to my explanation. Something happened at Mark's house yesterday. I was busy late and I was worried that coming back would affect your sleep, so I stayed with him all night."
"Huh!" Wang Lanfang snorted coldly: "I knew you had to pull off this scam when you spent the night at his place!"
Wang Xiaomi reacted and said in surprise: "You didn't call Triumph!"
"Of course, I'm not stupid, your friend didn't tell the truth." Wang Lanfang said proudly.
Wang Xiaomi was speechless and could only give her mother a thumbs up.
"Mom, you are really good at it."
Wang Lanfang said angrily: "Don't change the subject. After you and Qiu Feng broke up, I have always heard that you had a boyfriend named Mark, but I have never seen him once. When did you bring him home?"
Wang Xiaomi said with a straight face: "You can see him anytime you want!"
"Really." Wang Lanfang said in surprise: "Then you invite him to come to your house for dinner tonight."
"There's no need to be in such a hurry!" Wang Xiaomi said, "You have to give people some time to react."
"How can I not be in a hurry? You are here all day and night. I am afraid that one day you will suddenly come home and tell me, Mom, you are going to be a grandmother." Wang Lanfang said angrily.
"How is it possible? I'm not a child. Safety measures are always in place, okay." Wang Xiaomi muttered.
When Wang Lanfang heard this, she became even more angry and spanked her daughter hard.
"I taught you in vain when I was a child. Girls should know how to respect themselves and love themselves. If you are like this before you get married, you are the one who will suffer in the end." Wang Lanfang said angrily.
"Mom, what era is it now, why do you still have the same old ideas?" Wang Xiaomi said indifferently.
Wang Lanfang snorted coldly and said, "Is that man named Mark serious about you? Have you ever thought about marrying you?"
"Of course Teacher Ma is serious, but I have no plans to get married for the time being. We have just started." Wang Xiaomi said.
"Is that Mark a teacher?" Wang Lanfang asked.
?"Yes!" Wang Xiaomi said.
"Is there a staff?" Wang Lanfang asked.
?"I think so! His school house has been divided."
Wang Lanfang's eyes lit up and he asked: "So he has a house in Beijing."
?"Whether he has a house or not, it's none of my business!" Wang Xiaomi said nonchalantly.
?Wang Lanfang hated the iron and said: "You are already twenty-five this year, why are you still so confused? If not, you must bring that Mark home, and I will check it for you!"
?Wang Xiaomi said impatiently: "Mom, stop nagging, why don't you let me ask Mark to come see you?"
"Really!" Wang Lanfang said in surprise.
"Well, I actually mentioned the door-to-door service to Teacher Ma yesterday, and he agreed. I just felt it was a bit too urgent at night."
?Wang Lanfang was finally satisfied and said: "No rush, no rush at all. You can let him come to your house for dinner in the evening, and I will go to the vegetable market to buy some food."
?After saying that, Wang Lanfang ran out the door excitedly.
