"Dad, a weekend isn't enough for you to go on a date. It's past nine o'clock before you can bear to come back."

After comforting Wang Xiaomi and returning home, Ma Li and Mark complained.

With just a little girlfriend and a little cotton-padded jacket, Mark has very little time to spare.

If he wanted to be emotionally involved, Mark really couldn't handle so many people.

"So, it's been a long time since you came back?" Mark looked at Ma Li in surprise.

Mark went to the gym during the day and had dinner with Wang Xiaomi at night. The default assumption was that Ma Li would play late on weekends.

"Yeah, I've been back long ago."

"It's worth encouraging. Keep up the good work. Wait for me and I'll make you a midnight snack as a reward."

"I'm not a foodie. Don't bribe me with food. Come sit here and I'll tell you something." Ma Li patted the sofa and said.

"What's going on? Are you so solemn?"

Although Ma Li would not admit it, Mark was sure that Ma Li was a foodie, and the pursuit of delicious food was definitely at the top of Ma Li's mind.

"Dad, what if I take the Conservatory of Music exam?"

"You shouldn't ask me this question, you should ask yourself, what do you think?"

Originally, Ma Li came back early, and Mark thought that Ma Li was playing with her classmates. When he asked this question, there was no doubt that Ma Li still found some members of the band to play with.

"I think it's pretty good. I like listening to music and am willing to sing. I choose a major based on my own interests. In the future, my interest will be my job. Isn't this the best plan?"

"Lily, that's not what dad means. What dad wants to ask is not whether you like it or not, but whether you can pass the exam. There are tens of millions of candidates every year, only about 10,000 of them go to Qingbei, and the rest don't go.

Don’t they all like it?”

"Dad, my grades are fine. My scores in the art category are so much lower than those in general admissions. If I fail to pass the exam, will I be worthy of your usual tutoring?"

"What about majors?"

"Dad, you don't trust me. You've never heard me sing. In fact, I sing very well." This is because Ma Li has insufficient experience and thinks too simply about the problem.

"Don't you know Qiu Feng? His parents are both professors at the Conservatory of Music. Have you never asked him what the standards are for him to be admitted to the Conservatory of Music?"

Mark didn't have any intention of not letting Mali get into the music school.

But Ma Li's piano didn't go as planned as Mark started and she didn't insist on practicing hard.

There is also a gap in strength. Ma Li's current strength is definitely not enough.

"Dad, I haven't even started yet, and you're already discouraging me. Don't you even support your daughter's dream?" What Ma Li did most to Mark was acting like a baby.

"I support it. Your dream dad will definitely support it."

"How are you going to support me?"

"I'll help you hire a teacher from the music school. Let's find out how it goes."

It is actually very important to ask an admissions teacher to help you find out.

Either Ma Li gave up on music and devoted herself to preparing for the general college entrance examination, or else Mark gave up and fully supported Ma Li's admission to the Conservatory of Music.

According to art candidates, they will book a track by the second semester of their sophomore year at the latest. Ma Li is already half a year late, and there really isn't much time left.

On the morning of the start of school on Monday, Mark first sought advice from the school's music teacher to learn about music and art students.

There was no class in the afternoon, so Mark came to the pet shop.

Always check with Wang Xiaomi. Wang Lanfang knows how the two people reacted after they got engaged privately.

"Teacher Ma, did you propose to Xiaomi?"

"Well, how do you know."

"With such a big diamond ring, who can't see it? Xiaomi has been showing off to us all morning?"

Lao Han pointed at Wang Xiaomi in front of the counter, who was indeed wearing a ring.

"Go, this is nothing to show off, and I didn't show it to you. At most, this is just Xiaomi trying to explain to others that he has a rightful wife."

"Teacher Ma, you picked such a big flower in our store, should you show some expression?"

"Say no problem. If you are willing to close the business early, I will treat you to dinner."

"Then let's make a decision." Closing the business so hastily is actually in line with Han Jinlong's character.

Although he has a bad heart after all, when he is in a good mood, Lao Han does business so casually.

"Did your mother see the ring?"

After dealing with Lao Han, Mark came to the counter, squeezed out Dai Anfen, and sat down with Wang Xiaomi.

"You saw it, can you not show it to her?"

"What's her attitude?"

"What other attitude could there be? Of course I am unwilling. Let me return the ring to you."

This is no different from when Wang Xiaomi was asked to pay back the money for the furniture. It just requires two people to cut it up.

"Anything else?"

"I didn't want to, so she said she would go to the United States with Uncle Zhang and let me fend for myself."

"Then I'll contact Uncle Zhang."

Wang Lanfang is going so far, Mark should have some indication.

At least give Wang Lanfang some US dollars.

To prevent Dr. Zhang from having any fancy ideas, when the Americans cut off Dr. Zhang’s living expenses, the old man and the old lady will not be able to return to the country.

"Why are you contacting Uncle Zhang? You just trust my mother so much. She is trying to scare me!"

"She's not going." Mark was a little disappointed: "In fact, you should advise her to go outside more often while she is still able to walk."

Although Mark felt that it would be better if Wang Lanfang was not in the country, Mark also sincerely thought so and that’s why he advised her.

"I want to, but she won't listen to me now." Wang Xiaomi was annoyed for a second, and then immediately regained her confidence: "Don't worry, my mother is at the end of her rope now, she can't do anything, and she can't harm us.

It’s a matter of two people. Second uncle, does your mother know that we are planning to get married?"

"I haven't gone over to see her yet. I can take care of my mother's side and it won't affect us."

Mark's plan has always been to turn raw rice directly into cooked rice first.

Get the marriage certificate first, and then confront Ling Mingyu.

No matter how you look at it, it's something Mark won't suffer from, so it's not that hard for people to accept.

"We've both decided, should I go over and visit her?"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "I promised Lao Han that I would treat them to dinner tonight. What do you think we should treat them to?"

Mark changed the topic directly. If possible, Mark hoped that the two would never meet.

As long as Wang Xiaomi is not pregnant with a child from the Ma family, Ling Mingyu's attitude toward Wang Xiaomi is unlikely to change.

"Hot pot, I haven't eaten there in a long time."

I have to say that I like Chi Wang Xiaomi more than Mark.

Wang Xiaomi's only material pursuit may be all about food.

"These two people who often go to bars to have fun, do they have such bad drinking capacity?"

Looking at Han Jinlong and Dai Anfen who were already staggering as they walked, Mark asked Wang Xiaomi.

"Maybe it's because I drank too little liquor."

Wang Xiaomi thought for a while and replied, after getting together with Mark, Wang Xiaomi really had fewer opportunities to play with these two people. When hanging out with these two people, she felt a little unfamiliar with them.

"You still have to drink even if you can't. You young people are still brave."

Mark sincerely praised it. This was an experience Mark had not had in a long time.

"I'm used to drinking like this in bars."

"So in that kind of place, people who have no control should avoid going there." After a routine lecture, Mark looked at Old Han opposite: "Old Han, can you go back by yourself?"

"No problem, I can... go home."

Although his face was red, his eyes were blurred, and he couldn't speak clearly, Old Han's sanity still existed.

He looks like an old drunkard.

"Then I won't care about you. I'll send the two girls back."

If it were just Mark and Wang Xiaomi, they would drink only lightly and it was impossible to drink too much.

But today, Lao Han and Dai Anfen were added, Wang Xiaomi was taken by two people, and he drank a lot more than usual.

Under such circumstances, Mark was worried about letting Wang Xiaomi go home by himself and would definitely send him back.

If he left the person in the hotel, Mark was worried that Wang Lanfang would cause trouble at school again.

"Teacher Ma, just take Xiaomi back, and I'll take it to Dai Anfen." Old Han turned around and said to Mark in a low voice.
