Fast forward one month later.
This morning.
Jingyue Community.
"Second uncle, are you awake? Are you exercising so early?" Wang Xiaomi got up from the bed and looked for clothes while looking at Mark who was exercising in the living room.
"I'm used to it. I'm used to practicing boxing in the morning. Xiaomi, it's still early, so you can get some sleep." Mark said with a smile while boxing.
"Second uncle is getting up, so am I. Let me exercise with you." Wang Xiaomi said with a smile.
"Okay, come on, I'll teach you a set of exercises to stretch your muscles and bones. If you exercise for a long time, your body will get better, your skin will become smoother, and you won't get acne easily." Mark smiled.
"Okay, second uncle." Wang Xiaomi hugged Mark from behind, treated him tenderly, and then followed Mark to practice boxing.
Wang Xiaomi and Mark naturally lived together.
However, they don't live together every day.
When Ma Li and Manao went back to live in Jinxiu Community, Mark went back, and Wang Xiaomi sometimes went back to her house.
After Mark had Wang Xiaomi, he was completely relieved.
He let go of the vast and boundless forest outside and only had a close relationship with Wang Xiaomi.
Mark is basically a principled person, and he will not give up his principles and bottom line easily.
Unless something unexpected happens.
...
"Second uncle, the eggs have been cut. Which one do you want to eat?" Wang Xiaomi held a fried egg in his left hand and sliced bread in his right hand.
"I'll eat you..." Mark suddenly remembered a movie plot.
...
Wang Xiaomi has learned to cook.
Wang Lanfang specially came here to teach Wang Xiaomi how to cook several times.
Now, Wang Xiaomi can make some home-cooked dishes, which taste pretty good, and Mark is not picky.
Mark recently had the idea of learning cooking, but he hasn't had time to go to a chef cooking school yet.
"Second uncle, haven't you finished eating yet?" Wang Xiaomi asked anxiously. She is going to Ling Mingyu's place today as Mark's girlfriend.
"Xiaomi, don't be anxious. The mall isn't open yet. If you go there, you'll have to wait outside." Mark ate breakfast leisurely. Breakfast is not only bread and omelettes, but also many other things. Wang Xiaomi made a lot of them. He eats slowly, which medical books say can keep him healthy.
"Second uncle, what do you think of me wearing this dress?"
"Quite good looking."
"What about this one?"
"It's good, Xiaomi, you are beautiful and look good in whatever clothes you wear. However, you have to meet my mother today, so you have to dress more conservatively. These beautiful clothes are beautiful, but they are a bit exposed. Let's change One that doesn’t expose your flesh.” Mark smiled.
"Okay, uncle, I know which clothes to choose, mua..."
...
shopping mall.
"Second uncle, hurry up. We have a lot of gifts to buy. Mom, Ma Li, and Manao all have gifts. They are all indispensable." Wang Xiaomi was sweating on his forehead. It was obvious that she was a little nervous. After all, the beautiful daughter-in-law was going to meet her mother-in-law.
"Xiaomi, you should buy me a gift. I am the most important, haha." Mark smiled casually.
Wang Xiaomi rolled his eyes and ignored Mark.
"Second uncle, does our mother like this jade bracelet?" Wang Xiaomi asked.
"She should like it, but I think she prefers gold bracelets." Mark smiled.
"Then just buy everything with gold and jade, right?" Wang Xiaomi said grandly. She is now considered a moderately wealthy person and is no longer stingy with money.
"You don't need to buy so much, otherwise my mother will say that if you don't know how to save money, you will spend money randomly." Mark laughed.
"Then buy a gold bracelet. Miss, please wrap up this, this, and this." Wang Xiaomi chose three pieces of gold jewelry at once. Not only Ling Mingyu's, but also Ma Li and Manao's.
Mark was going to check out.
"Second uncle, I have to pay for the things you buy this time." Wang Xiaomi said hurriedly.
"Okay." Mark smiled. He didn't rush to pay, there was no need.
"Second uncle, the jewelry has been bought. It's time for us to check out the cosmetics. I remember that the cosmetics brand of our mother and Lili are the same as the ones we bought in Hainan, right?" Wang Xiaomi asked anxiously.
"That's right, it's all the same, unchanged." Mark spoke faster. Being led by Wang Xiaomi, he was also a little anxious.
"After buying cosmetics, I still need to buy..." Wang Xiaomi said a lot of things at once.
"Xiaomi, let's not buy the cosmetics after buying them. These are enough. If there are more, my mother will definitely tell me that I let you spend money indiscriminately." Mark said with a smile.
"Okay then. By the way, second uncle, do you want to tell our mother about the beauty salon?" Wang Xiaomi asked.
"I can't say. They don't know about the beauty salon. Just say that you work for a boss named Zhou." Mark thought for a while. He planned to use the name from his previous life.
"Boss Zhou? Why Boss Zhou?" Wang Xiaomi asked strangely.
"Because Boss Zhou is more handsome!" Mark laughed casually.
"No, second uncle, if I work for a handsome boss, will my mother and Lily think too much? What if they misunderstand me?" Wang Xiaomi said hurriedly.
"This..." Mark didn't think about it just now, he said it casually.
"Second uncle, let's talk about a female boss named Zhou." Wang Xiaomi said with a smile.
"That's okay." Mark said depressedly. He felt that he shouldn't mention the boss named Zhou. Wouldn't this involve him?
"Second uncle, what fruit does our mother like?" Wang Xiaomi asked.
"Just buy fruits that are in season and fresh!" Mark said casually.
"Second uncle, do you want ham? My mother asked me to bring ham." Wang Xiaomi said with a smile.
"No, just bring the ham next time." Mark said with a smile.
"Second uncle, do you think my mother will hate me?" Wang Xiaomi asked worriedly.
"No. As I said, she has a very good impression of you and has met you several times. In addition to going to the Bear Country together, she has also met you before." Mark smiled.
"Before? When has my mother seen me before?" Wang Xiaomi asked strangely.
"She has been to your beauty salon..., she went there specifically to see you, haha." Mark smiled. After Ling Mingyu knew that Wang Xiaomi worked in a beauty salon, she went there to make a special purchase and made excuses to chat with Wang Xiaomi. At that time, Wang Xiaomi did not know Ling Mingyu.
"Ah? When did it happen? Why didn't I know? Second uncle, why didn't you tell me in advance?" Wang Xiaomi said hurriedly.
"I only found out after the fact. After my mother heard that I liked you, she asked for news about you. She went alone and didn't tell anyone." Mark smiled.
"Ah? How about my performance? Will my mother have a bad impression of me?" Wang Xiaomi asked worriedly.
"No, didn't I say that? She has a very good impression of you. She said that you are a good person, you know how to adapt, and you handle difficult customers very well. Anyway, my mother said a lot about you. Good words." Mark smiled.
"Really? Why did I perform so well?" Wang Xiaomi said proudly.
"Xiaomi, you have indeed grown a lot this year." Mark smiled.
"My second uncle helped me, otherwise I would still be working as a poop scooper in a pet store." Wang Xiaomi said with a smile.
"I just gave you a chance. It was your efforts that allowed you to realize your potential." Mark smiled.
"Second uncle, without you, I would definitely not be as good as I am now." Wang Xiaomi hugged Mark's arm and said lovingly.
"It's best if two people who like each other can achieve each other's success." Mark smiled. He took the initiative to kiss Wang Xiaomi. He couldn't always let Wang Xiaomi take the initiative. He is a man, he needs to be more proactive. Just like when the two first lived together, Mark took the initiative to do various things, which made Wang Xiaomi a little overwhelmed.
