The phone rang suddenly. Li Jia picked it up, glanced at the number—it was Meng Yao—and pressed the answer button.
"Li Jia, what exactly did you go to do? You just ran off without explaining yourself. Don't you know there's a huge pile of things waiting for you to deal with at the store?" Before Li Jia could speak, Meng Yao, unusually, spoke first on the phone to question her.
"Sorry, I'll tell you what happened when we get back. By the way, didn't you say a while ago that the dry cleaning shop was going to expand? Is that true?" Li Jia suddenly remembered this, and at the same time, a new idea popped into her head!
As soon as Li Jia parked his car in front of the dry cleaner, Meng Yao and Zhou Xiaoyu came out to greet him. "Brother Li, you're back!"
"You're back?" Meng Yao and Zhou Xiaoyu greeted each other in turn, but one's voice was joyful while the other's was faint. Whether joyful or faint, both voices were filled with happiness at Li Jia's return.
"This is Xiaofang, my little sister. Xiaofang, this is Sister Xiaoyu, and this is Sister Mengyao." Li Jia introduced them to each other as soon as Xiaofang got out of the car. Xiaofang nodded and greeted Zhou Xiaoyu and Mengyao.
"Let's go inside first. We can talk after we eat," Li Jia said immediately, seeing the questioning looks on Meng Yao and Zhou Xiaoyu's faces. Now was not the time to explain. The two of them hadn't stayed in City C at noon and had gone straight back to City B, so their stomachs were already growling with hunger.
After dinner, Xiaofang went to bed early, and Mengyao and Li Jia then sat down in the study to chat.
"The main reason I rushed back is to talk to you about opening a branch." Upon hearing this, Meng Yao looked at Li Jia with surprise, her face filled with astonishment. "You already know?" she asked.
"That's not important. What's important is that I want to open a branch in F City. There should be some Zuolong Men's Clothing customers there, right?" Li Jia's idea was simple: to open a branch in F City. That way, it would be much more convenient for him to take care of Ya Jun and Ya Ya when he had to travel between the two places. After all, opening a branch in F City would be like having a base. At the same time, the store could also provide Ya Jun and Ya Ya with an opportunity to train. It would be a win-win situation.
“I’m not sure about that, but Zhao Fei has come a few times. Since we started working together, their customer satisfaction has always been very high. So she suggested that we open a few more stores through sponsorship. As for opening stores in other places, we’ll have to ask her and discuss it with her.” Meng Yao replied immediately after hearing Li Jia’s words.
“Okay, I’ll make an appointment with her right away. I’ll meet her tomorrow. No matter what she says, I’m going to open a branch in F City. But I’ll open a branch in B City too. Shuxin Dry Cleaning can’t go on like this.” Li Jia was very decisive and immediately decided to talk to Zhao Fei.
The next morning, Zhao Fei arrived at Li Jia's store dressed in a professional office lady outfit. Now a graduate with a degree in business administration, Zhao Fei is focusing on running her own brand, Zuolong Men's Wear.
"Zhao Fei, it's been a long time. You've become even more beautiful." As the one who initiated the invitation, Li Jia naturally had to offer some polite greetings.
Zhao Fei, however, stared at the stubble peeking out on Li Jia's chin and nodded seriously, "Brother Li, you're becoming more and more manly."
