Chapter 33: Let go
Shopping mall children's playground.
"Mark, how are you chatting with Wang Xiaomi?" Seeing Mark coming, Ling Mingyu hurriedly asked.
"It's not good, I think the age difference between me and Xiaomi is too big, and I'm embarrassed to continue with other little girls." Mark said casually.
"Excuse me? Don't you like other people's girls? And now that I've bought a big house, why not continue? Ling Mingyu said a little angrily.
"Mom, the age difference between me and Wang Xiaomi is too big, even if Wang Xiaomi agrees to be with me out of gratitude, but her mother will definitely be angry if she finds out." Mark frowned.
"You..." Ling Mingyu's expression was complicated, she wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say. She is a mother, of course she can think of what Wang Xiaomi's parents will think, so it is difficult for her to persuade Mark to continue.
"Okay, Mom, I'm not in a hurry, take your time, there will always be fate, let's eat first." Mark laughed.
"Well..., that's all there is to it." Ling Mingyu let out a long sigh and said.
Mark eats with Ling Mingyu and Ma Ya at the mall.
In the afternoon, Mark drove Ling Mingyu and Ma Ya to the big house.
Ma Li and Wang Xiaomi wanted to go shopping together and didn't go home.
...
Hospital.
"Old Ma, you're here, I'll pour you water." Teacher Sun said enthusiastically.
"No, I brought a water glass, how about it? Is the surgery a problem, right? Mark asked. Mr. and Mrs. Sun have already undergone surgery, and he has been here a few times before.
"The doctor said that the operation was successful, and he could be discharged from the hospital after a period of recuperation." Teacher Sun said with some joy.
"That's good."
"Lao Ma, I heard from the principal that the school invited a foreign teacher to be an English teacher during this time, how is that foreign teacher teaching?" Teacher Sun asked.
"Not very good. The foreign teacher is not good, he doesn't teach well in class every day, and he often chats with female students, and he still teaches American spoken English. Mark said casually. That's what Mary told him.
"American colloquialism? Our exams are British-style. What do the school guys do for food? It's all wrong. Teacher Sun said angrily.
"I don't know, I guess I got it wrong." Mark didn't care. In his opinion, this kind of thing is very common, and it is not a big deal.
"No, if this continues, the children's academic performance will go down, and I will go back to school immediately." Teacher Sun said urgently.
"yes, it's time for you to go back, the students are thinking about it." Mark laughed.
"Miss me? They don't hate me. Teacher Sun glared. He usually grasps it strictly, and the students complain a little.
The two chatted for a while.
"Teacher Sun, I'll leave first if it's okay, just say if you need help."
"Okay, old horse, I didn't make this friend of yours in vain. When my daughter-in-law is discharged from the hospital, I will invite you to dinner. ”
...
Ma Li and Wang Mi spent an afternoon strolling around the mall.
Neither of them bought anything.
"Sister Xiao, are you free for a while?" Mary asked with a grin.
"I'm free, what's the matter, do you want to continue playing?" Wang Xiaomi said with a smile. After she knew that Mary was Mark's daughter, she treated her better.
"Sister Xiaomi, there is a concert in the evening, I want you to accompany me."
"Concert? What kind of concert? ”
"It's a newly formed group, called Reflector, and they're going to have a concert."
"Mirrors?" Wang Xiaomi was stunned again.
"Sister Xiaomi, what's wrong with you?"
"This..., Marie, do you know the name of the lead singer of the Reflector?"
"I know, his name is Qiu Feng. He's handsome, I like him, he writes songs..."
In a burst of praise from Ma Li, Wang Xiaoxiao said with a complicated expression, "Ma Li, that Qiu Feng is my ex-boyfriend." ”
"Huh? What? What is Sister Xiaomi's ex-boyfriend? Mary was incredulous.
"Ma Li, that Qiu Feng is my ex-boyfriend." Wang Xiaomi smiled bitterly. She suddenly felt that the world was so small, and she was all spinning around in a circle.
"Ex-boyfriend? Sister Xiaomi, that... That song "It's You" was written by Qiu Feng for you? Mary asked.
"Yes." Wang Xiaomi nodded.
Mary's mood suddenly became complicated. She looked down and didn't know what to think.
Wang Xiaomi recalled that song, Qiu Feng sang "It's You" to her alone, and was silent for a while.
"Sister Xiaomi, why did you and Qiu Feng break up?" After a moment of silence, Mary asked.
"Because I'm grown up, he hasn't grown up yet." Wang Xiaomi's voice was gloomy.
She and Qiu Feng must have a relationship, but Qiu Feng has disappointed her too many times, and she can't continue with Qiu Feng anymore. She didn't want to break up either, but she couldn't continue.
"Sister Xiaomi, what do you mean? I don't understand. Mary wondered. She hasn't grown up yet, and she doesn't understand what Wang Xiaomi means.
"To put it simply, Qiu Feng ten years ago and Qiu Feng ten years later have always been the same, he has not changed." Wang Xiaomi said helplessly.
"Hasn't it changed bad? Wouldn't it be worse if he fell in love with someone else? Mary wondered.
Wang Xiaomi didn't want to say anything, but remembering that Ma Li was Mark's daughter and didn't want her to be one-sided in love with Qiu Feng, she thought about it and said:
"Ma Li, Qiu Feng was the same age as you ten years ago, he caused trouble everywhere at that time, and he was arrested at the police station from time to time. At that time, I often accompanied him to the police station. I was always scared of him.
I thought that he was rebellious in adolescence, and when he grew up, he matured, so he didn't fight and cause trouble.
As a result, ten years later, Qiu Feng is still like that, and he is often arrested in the police station.
I am tired.
Ten years, a whole ten years.
I feared him for ten years.
Although he sings very well, he is very pleasing to girls.
But I'm really tired.
I didn't want to be woken up by a call from the police in the middle of the night and go to the police station to ransom him.
I'm twenty-five years old and I want to find a mature boyfriend.
I want a safe home. ”。
"Sister Xiao, don't be excited, I didn't expect Qiu Feng to be so unreliable." Mary reassured.
"It's okay, Mary, it's all over, I've broken up with him." Wang Xiaomi said easily. She had already let go of Qiu Feng. The song "It's You", although it moved her very much, also made her completely let go of Qiu Feng and bid farewell to the past.
"Then Sister Xiao, what kind of boyfriend do you want to find? Is there an age limit? Mary asked. It occurred to her that she wanted to find out for Mark.
"Age? Try to be the same age as I am, just not too much older than me. Wang Xiaomi said casually. She didn't react to the meaning of Mary's question.
"Ten years older than you, okay?" Ma Li asked hesitantly. She didn't dare to ask, "Is it okay to be seventeen years older?" ”
"Ten?" Wang Xiaomi's first wanted to say no, but she stopped, and she suddenly understood that Ma Li might be talking about Mark.
"Ma Li, in fact, age is not a problem, as long as that person is worthy of liking, it doesn't matter if there is a difference of ten or twenty years." Wang Xiaomi said with a smile.
"Really? Great, Sister Xiaomi, I'm not going to the concert today, let's continue shopping. Mary said happily. She was in a good mood all of a sudden, and she wanted to buy and buy.
"Okay, let's go shopping." Wang Xiaomi said happily. She remembered that Mary wanted to match her with Mark, and she thought Mary was cute.
