Xiao Lang raised his eyebrows: "Do you think I will agree?"
"But if we don't agree, the Long family will suppress us." Li Mingxi deliberately wanted to see his reaction.
A hint of gloom flashed across Xiao Lang's eyes.
He curled his lips coldly and said: "Barefooted people are not afraid of those wearing shoes. If they have the ability, just let them come over!"
Li Mingxi likes Xiao Lang like this.
He is usually a gentleman and gentle, but when it's time to make a decision, he doesn't look forward or backward.
Li Mingxi leaned on his shoulder and said with a smile: "You are right, if they have the ability, they will come over."
She was not afraid of these little things. As long as Long Jiutian didn't wake up, she had no worries.
Both Li Mingxi and Xiao Lang rejected the Long family's proposal and were unwilling to settle in City B.
On the third day, when Li Mingxi continued to treat Long Jiutian, he was invited to drink coffee by Long Jiutian's mother, the eldest wife of the Long family.
…
The eldest wife of the Long family takes good care of herself, but there are still a lot of fine lines at the corners of her eyes.
She wears expensive clothes, behaves noblely, and looks at people with a noble eye.
"Ms. Li, please drink coffee." The eldest lady said to her with a smile.
Li Mingxi picked up the cup and took a sip.
"The coffee is very fragrant." Li Mingxi praised it.
The eldest lady seemed to be waiting for her words.
She said with a slight smile: "This is made from the finest coffee beans flown in from the estate in Jamaica. Our family has always only drank this kind of coffee."
It is well known that the coffee beans grown in Jamaica are the best.
The coffee the Long family drinks must be made from Jamaican coffee beans. It has to be said that the Long family is indeed very luxurious.
Li Mingxi smiled but did not answer.
The eldest lady didn't wait for her praise and was slightly unhappy.
However, the more distinguished a person is, the more they pay attention to image.
She still had a decent smile on her face: "Ms. Li, I heard that your husband is going to open a chain of restaurants across the country, is that right?"
Li Mingxi nodded: "That's the plan."
The eldest lady smiled and said elegantly: "There happen to be some vacant storefronts in the most prosperous area of City B. Our Long family has already bought the house, so why not give it to Mr. Xiao to open a restaurant? If Mr. Xiao wants to
City F, City G, City T and other cities are open, and we can also provide some help."
Li Mingxi was surprised, and the eldest lady was very satisfied with her reaction.
Businessmen value profits, so she doesn't believe that Li Mingxi and others don't want to make money.
"Madam, thank you for your kindness, but we still want to rely on our own strength to work hard." Li Mingxi declined politely.
The eldest lady only thought that her refusal was a false one.
She said considerately: "How long can we fight with our own strength? Besides, you have helped us, and it is right for us to give you this help."
"Are you saying that I treated that person? I've already been paid, and I haven't made any progress yet, so I can't afford your heavy thanks."
This time Li Mingxi's tone was a little tougher.
Only then did the eldest lady realize that they really did not want these favorable conditions.
If it had been anyone else, the eldest lady would have looked down upon him.
But if it were Li Mingxi, she felt that she was ignorant.
She knew clearly why they kept her, but she refused blindly because she didn't know what was good and what was good.
The eldest lady's smile faded a bit: "Miss Li, our Long family sincerely hopes that you can settle in City B.
