Chapter 2994: Opening Another Branch

Li Mingxi finished speaking and noticed Xiao Lang was staring at her with a smile.

"What are you smiling at?!"

"Wife, I’ve discovered you’re really impressive."

Li Mingxi thought about her bluntness to Wen Ning at the café earlier and then about her blunt words just now, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Do you think I’m very fierce?"

Xiao Lang pulled her over and gave her a kiss: "No, I think you’re really impressive, really cute..."

Oh dear, at this age, still being called cute.

Li Mingxi shyly pushed him away: "Drive, let’s go!"

Xiao Lang chuckled and then started the car to leave.

The matter of retrieving the Wen Family shares was handled quickly by Xiao Lang without any trouble. After all, the Wen Family weren’t unreasonable people, and making money was important, but their daughter’s well-being was even more so.

They knew that Wen Ning could no longer get involved with Xiao Lang.

So when Xiao Lang proposed to buy their shares, the Wen Family readily agreed.

This matter was resolved quite smoothly, leaving both Li Mingxi and Xiao Lang satisfied.

Langming had already established itself in A City, prompting Xiao Lang to consider expanding to other cities.

He planned to open just one store in each city, focusing exclusively on high-end offerings.

Moreover, he intended to personally inspect the other cities.

With nothing on her schedule, Li Mingxi accompanied him on his business trips, helping out a little along the way.

...

Li Mingxi was familiar with almost all major cities, while Xiao Lang spent most of his time in A City, so her presence was a significant help.

First, they went to the neighboring city, F City.

The taste preferences of the two cities were quite similar, increasing the likelihood of Langming’s success here.

Upon arriving in F City, Li Mingxi took Xiao Lang to the best restaurant there to taste the city’s specialty dishes.

Xiao Lang, naturally inclined toward culinary exploration, had a palate that could immediately discern the quality of food.

What Xiao Lang deemed delicious was definitely not what ordinary people would consider good.

If he said a dish was delicious, then its taste was certainly top-notch.

Once at the restaurant, they got a private room and ordered numerous dishes.

After Xiao Lang sampled each dish, Li Mingxi eagerly asked, "How is it?"

Xiao Lang nodded: "Very good."

"How does it compare to Langming?"

Xiao Lang smiled and said, "Naturally a bit inferior."

"Really?! That’s great; this is the best restaurant in the city. If Langming’s taste surpasses this, Langming will certainly profit here," Li Mingxi said excitedly.

Xiao Lang shook his head: "You can’t judge just by one restaurant."

"I know, let’s go, I’ll take you to the next place to eat."

They had only tasted a few bites from the table full of dishes and did not worry about wasting food since they were here to sample and needed to try the local delicacies as much as possible.

Li Mingxi then took Xiao Lang to several other places, each offering at least one tasty specialty dish, none to be underestimated.

...

After sampling at several places, they decided not to eat anymore and wanted to take a walk to see if there were any interesting restaurants.

It was the afternoon rush hour, so there were many diners around.

The number of patrons in a store was a clear indicator of the taste of the food there.

Li Mingxi held Xiao Lang’s arm as they leisurely strolled down the bustling streets.

It was now autumn, and the cool weather was perfect for walking.

Both of them enjoyed the leisure of the moment, mutually deciding against more food tastings, opting instead for a peaceful walk to savor the experience.
