After the Spring Festival, on the fifth day of the third year of Chunfeng Middle School, Fang Yifan and the others started busy studying again.
However, compared with Qiao Yingzi and Lin Lei'er, Fang Yifan and Wang Yidi were much more relaxed. After all, as long as their grades remained at the current level after the art exam, the college entrance examination would not be a problem.
However, since the topic of studying abroad came up, Fang Yifan had some changes. Not only did he take the initiative to approach Li Yao and ask for continued tutoring in vocal music and dance, but he also had a good talk with his parents.
Fang Yifan wants to study abroad at the Juilliard School of Music, but only after graduating from college.
He will spend four years studying for professional courses and hopes his parents will support him.
Wang Gang is very pleased that his son has found a goal again and wants to work hard for it, so he is naturally very supportive.
Tong Wenjie had some criticisms about studying abroad, but she also understood that studying abroad was for her son's future and did not stop him.
Fang Yifan started tutoring again, but this time it was not for the college entrance examination, but for studying abroad.
Wang Gang consulted a professional study abroad institution. The Juilliard School of Music’s annual admissions qualifications are very strict, and graduate students are even more strict.
With Fang Yifan's current level, he is not even qualified to participate in the assessment. However, with his talent, if he works hard for another four years, he will have a chance as long as he does not slack off.
Wang Gang told his son about the difficulties, which aroused Fang Yifan's ambition.
Once a person has a goal, he or she will be motivated to do whatever he or she does. It is a perfect term to describe Fang Yifan now.
For Fang Yifan, Li Yao specially used her connections to find him a tutor who was a well-known domestic dancer and a top student of Beijing Dance University.
The teacher's surname is Liu, who is good at classical dance and is also a visiting professor of Beijing Dance University.
In order for Teacher Liu to accept Fang Yifan, Wang Gang even approached Xiao Meng, hoping that she could help match him.
Teacher Liu's former student was Xiao Meng, and they had a good relationship.
After Xiao Meng broke up with Qiao Weidong, she was not idle either. She got close to her admirer and her old schoolmate who had always been a dog licker.
Speaking of it, Xiaomeng was quite free and easy. When she said she wanted to break up with Qiao Weidong, she broke up with him without any ambiguity, without being sloppy, and without asking for any compensation, which made Wang Gang a little impressed.
Wang Gang always thought that Xiao Meng was with Qiao Weidong for money, but now that he thought about it, he looked down on him.
Wang Gang made an appointment with Xiaomeng to meet at Li Yao's studio, just in time for her to catch up with Li Yao.
Xiao Meng is still the same, as if she has not changed, but also seems to have changed a little. As soon as she saw Li Yao, she hugged her enthusiastically.
"Li Yao, you seem to be getting more and more beautiful recently. Are you nourished by love?"
Li Yao let go of Xiao Meng and said, "You are becoming more and more beautiful and charming."
Xiaomeng smiled and said: "I contacted Teacher Liu and she agreed to accept Fang Yifan, but the tuition is quite expensive, 500,000 yuan per year."
Wang Gang said without hesitation: "No problem!"
Five hundred thousand to hire a famous teacher is indeed very high for an ordinary family, but for Wang Gang, it is a drop in the bucket.
?Besides, given Teacher Liu's reputation, the tuition fee is 500,000 yuan a year, which is absolutely priceless and very cost-effective.
"Hey! I can't tell you are quite rich, so you won't spend Li Yao's money!" Xiao Meng said half-jokingly.
"He is much richer than me." Li Yao didn't want her boyfriend to be misunderstood, so she took the initiative and said: "He has a unique investment vision and can make millions in half a year. After I handed it over to him, the size of my studio doubled.
Five hundred thousand annual tuition fees is nothing to him."
Xiao Meng was very impressed with Wang Gang. She remembered Qiao Weidong saying that Wang Gang was a high-level wage earner with an annual salary of only three to four hundred thousand.
"I want to thank Xiao Meng for being the matchmaker this time. I owe you a favor." Wang Gang smiled at Xiao Meng.
"I will remember this!" Xiao Meng said with a smile.
Li Yao took Xiao Meng's hand and said, "Let's have a meal together later."
"Okay! I just finished class and I'm hungry!" Xiao Meng touched her flat stomach and said.
After Xiaomeng and Qiao Weidong broke up, she quit her job as a yoga instructor and went to work as a dance teacher at the same training institution where her college classmates also worked. I heard that she was doing well.
While eating, Li Yao suddenly remembered something and asked Xiao Meng: "Xiaomeng, I have a MV that I would like to hire a professional dancer to dance with. Are you interested?"
"I'm interested! But my reward is not cheap." Xiao Meng said with a smile.
"Don't worry! I can't live without you." Li Yao knew that Xiao Meng was joking.
Wang Gang had no objection to Li Yao's proposal. Xiao Meng is indeed a very professional dancer with a good appearance and temperament, which is very suitable for that MV.
"By the way, how is Qiao Weidong doing lately?" Xiao Meng asked intentionally or unintentionally.
Wang Gang and Li Yao looked at each other and knew that Xiao Meng had not completely let go of Qiao Weidong, after all, they had invested several years in their relationship.
"Lao Qiao has been pursuing Song Qian again recently." Wang Gang said truthfully.
Xiaomeng felt sad for a while when he heard this, but soon regained his energy.
"He never let go of Song Qian, I know that." Xiao Meng put down her chopsticks and said to Wang Gang:
"If you dare to imitate Qiao Weidong and hurt my good sister, be careful I won't let you go!"
Wang Gang held Li Yao's hand and said, "Don't worry! I will never look back in this life."
Xiao Meng saw that her good sisters were very happy now and felt relieved.
After eating, the three returned to the office again, and Wang Gang drafted a contract for Xiaomeng.
Xiaomeng didn't read it carefully, or even asked about the amount of his remuneration, and signed his name directly.
After signing the contract, Xiao Meng did not leave. Instead, she took Li Yao to chat in the office. Wang Gang needed to deal with other matters in the company and was not accompanied.
When it was almost time to get off work, Xiao Meng said goodbye to Wang Gang.
After sending Xiao Meng away, Wang Gang and Li Yao packed up and went home from get off work together. Fang's father and mother went back to the old house to pack their things and prepare for moving, so they would not come back at night.
Wang Gang bought some food and planned to have a romantic candlelight dinner with Li Yao.
Li Yao doesn't know how to cook. Before meeting Wang Gang, she always took out food or ate out.
Wang Gang returned home and was responsible for cooking, while Li Yao cleaned up the house and arranged the dining table, like a happy young couple.
After the two sat down, Wang Gang poured Li Yao a glass of red wine.
"Let's have a drink." Wang Gang raised his red wine glass and said.
Li Yao did not raise her wine glass, but said to Wang Gang seriously:
"I don't like to mince words, and I'm a grown-up. Two days ago, my dad called me and asked me when I was going to get married!"
Wang Gang put down his wine glass and chuckled: "Are you proposing to me?"
Li Yao said with an indifferent expression: "Just take it as such! I like you and want to marry you, just tell me if you are willing or not!"
Wang Gang said nothing, and Li Yao's face sank.
She was not a sloppy person. When she was about to get up and leave, Wang Gang took out a ring box.
"Actually, I bought the engagement ring a long time ago, but I didn't expect you to speak first." Wang Gang opened the box, and there was a diamond ring inside.
Li Yao's eyes widened in surprise.
Wang Gang stood up, half-knelt in front of Li Yao, held the ring and said, "Will you marry me?"
Li Yao nodded, took the initiative to put the ring on her hand, and gave Wang Gang a sweet kiss.
Now that it’s ready, there’s no need to eat dinner. Wang Gang directly carries Li Yao into the bedroom.
Soon cheerful sounds came from the bedroom.
Two hours later, Wang Gang and Li Yao were lying on the bed, hugging each other.
"Did Xiao Meng say something to you today that made you determined to force me to marry you?" Wang Gang hugged his fiancée contentedly and teased.
"Don't you want to marry me?" Li Yao hummed, "I'm not forcing you!"
Wang Gang explained: "Actually, I have wanted to propose to you for a long time, but I was worried that the development would be too fast and my son would not be able to accept it. We have only known each other for half a year."
"I have already heard from Fang Yifan that he has no objection to our marriage. After Fang Yifan goes to college, we will live in my villa."
Wang Gang laughed and said: "I don't want to be said to be cheating on a rich woman. I will buy a wedding house, but give me some time."
"I don't care about the house, I only care about you. It doesn't matter where you live." Li Yao smiled.
Wang Gang said: "I plan to get the certificate first and hold the wedding later!"
Li Yao said distressedly: "I can wait, but I can't worry about him."
Wang Gang saw Li Yao pointing at his belly and suddenly reacted.
"You have it!" Wang Gang sat up in surprise.
"I don't know, maybe! My relatives didn't come this month." Li Yao said sweetly.
Wang Gang felt Li Yao's pulse, which indeed looked like a happy pulse.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Wang Gang said in surprise.
"I don't want to tie you up with my children." Li Yao said coolly.
"What are you going to do if I say I won't marry you?" Wang Gang asked again.
"What else can we do? We can raise the child alone!" Li Yao said indifferently: "A woman does not have to rely on a man to raise a child."
Wang Gang exhaled and said, "Fortunately, I prepared a ring, otherwise I wouldn't be able to see my child when he was born."
