Reborn in 1985: From Selling Braised Duck to Becoming the World's Richest Man

Upon seeing Liang Ming's bold move, Jiang Meizhuang's eyes widened, and for a moment, she even forgot to dodge.

Fortunately, Liang Ming only gave her a light kiss on the cheek.

Even so, Jiang Meizhuang's face was already as red as a ripe apple.

"Liang Ming, you're being a pervert!"

Jiang Meizhuang feigned anger, raising her slender, white hand to strike Liang Ming.

But she stopped halfway through waving her hand.

Clearly, she also had feelings for Liang Ming, so she didn't mind him kissing her in public.

Seeing that Jiang Meizhuang hadn't been defeated, Liang Ming's lips curled up, knowing that the matter was halfway done.

He took Jiang Meizhuang's hand and said, "Sister Meizhuang, it's still early, shall we go for a stroll in the park?"

Jiang Meizhuang did not struggle to break free from Liang Ming's hand, and nodded slightly.

The two arrived at the park in Taoyuan County, held hands, and strolled around for a while until the sun set behind the western mountains.

"I'll take you back to Xiangmanlou Restaurant," Liang Ming said with some reluctance.

“Okay.” Jiang Meizhuang did not refuse and nodded.

They held hands and kissed each other; they were just one step away from making their relationship official.

Jiang Meizhuang liked Liang Ming because he was young and talented.

Liang Ming admires Jiang Meizhuang's gentleness, virtue, and intelligence.

"Sister Meizhuang, shall we date?"

When they returned to the entrance of Xiangmanlou Restaurant, Liang Ming looked at Jiang Meizhuang with sincere eyes and confessed his feelings.

“Yes!” Jiang Meizhuang agreed without further ado.

The two looked at each other and laughed.

We're all business people; if we see something we like, we'll make a move. We don't have any of those messy rules between us.

"Then I'll come have breakfast with you tomorrow morning."

Liang Ming said to Jiang Meizhuang.

"I'm waiting for you."

Jiang Meizhuang's words, "I'll wait for you," conveyed the full tenderness of her feelings.

On the way back, Liang Ming felt completely elated.

When I got home, I happened to run into the villagers who brought me the lychees they had picked.

When Liang Ming weighed the food for them, if a villager was short two or three ounces, he would buy it directly at 1 jin (0.5 kg).

The villagers were overjoyed; even an extra 2 cents was still money.

"What's wrong with Brother Liang Ming? He's been grinning like an idiot all afternoon, and he's been spending money like water."

Chicken Boy, Dog Egg, and the others noticed that Liang Ming was acting strangely and began to discuss it in hushed tones.

"Could it be that there's a problem with the fruit sale? Is it because Brother Liang Ming is buying fruit on the last day, which is why he's offering such a high price to everyone?" A-Ma wondered.

Chicken Boy and Dog Egg both thought it made sense.

After discussing it, they decided to ask Liang Ming.

At this moment, Liang Ming had already loaded the lychees, mountain produce, and river delicacies into the car and was ready to leave.

He was very happy to see Jiang Meizhuang again soon.

"Brother Liang Ming, are you alright?"

At this moment, Chicken Boy suddenly stood in front of Liang Ming and asked.

"What could possibly be wrong with me?" Liang Ming asked, puzzled.

"Brother Liang Ming, if anything really goes wrong with the fruit business, just let us know!" Gou Dan chimed in.

"They say three cobblers are equal to one Zhuge Liang, maybe if we brothers put our heads together, we can actually come up with some ideas..." Ama said earnestly.

Hearing what the three said, Liang Ming was a little confused.

"What are you talking about? When did I say that the fruit business was no longer viable?" Liang Ming said.

"Brother Liang Ming, if there are problems with the fruit sale, what are you going to do this afternoon...?"

After hearing what the "chicken kid" said, Liang Ming finally understood and was both amused and exasperated.

"I'm spending lavishly today not because the fruit business is bad, but because I have good news and I'm happy!"

Liang Ming explained.

"Is there a happy event?"

Hearing Liang Ming's words, the three children became curious.

"Brother Liang Ming, is there any good news you can tell us about?"

"Yes, let's have some fun too."

Seeing the expectant looks on the three kids' faces, Liang Ming didn't hide anything and laughed, "If nothing unexpected happens, I'll have to find you a sister-in-law next year!"

Upon hearing this, the three children were first taken aback, then excited smiles appeared on their faces.

"Brother Liang Ming, are you dating someone?"

"I wonder which lucky girl is..."

“Brother Liang Ming, this is a joyous occasion. We must let Uncle and Aunt know so they can share in the happiness.”

After saying that, the three of them went into the house to find Liang Min and her husband.

Liang Ming couldn't stop him.

Soon, Liang Min and Li Lan learned about this and came out of the house.

"Xiaoming, did you really win over Boss Jiang?" Li Lan asked with a face full of joy.

Seeing that Li Lan had already guessed who his partner was, Liang Ming gave an awkward smile and nodded, saying, "Yes..."

"That's wonderful! That Boss Jiang is gentle, virtuous, and capable. She's so much better than Song Mei!"

Li Lan said excitedly:

"If we could really marry her, our family's ancestral graves would be emitting auspicious smoke."

"Xiaoming, when are you going to ask Miss Jiang if our two families can meet..."

Liang Min nodded and then said.

Hearing his parents' words, Liang Ming quickly said, "Mom and Dad, Meizhuang and I just confirmed our relationship. You're in such a hurry, don't scare her away."

Hearing Liang Ming's words, Liang Min and Li Lan also felt that it made sense, and agreed to talk about meeting the parents again after some time.

Even so, they still instructed Liang Ming, saying, "Xiao Ming, you better treat your girlfriend well. But if you make Boss Jiang suffer any injustice, we'll beat you up."

"Dad, Mom, I understand," Liang Ming nodded helplessly.

After leaving the house, Liang Ming gave Jiwa and the other two a final instruction: "Jiwa, starting tomorrow, I need an extra 300 jin of wild vegetables. Tell the villagers who practically dig for wild produce about it."

The little chicken nodded in agreement.

After delivering the lychees to Liangji Canned Food Factory, Liang Ming took some local mountain and river delicacies to Xiangmanlou Restaurant to find Jiang Meizhuang.

After confirming their relationship, their feelings for each other continued to grow stronger.

After handing over the mountain and river delicacies to the kitchen staff for weighing, Liang Ming accompanied Jiang Meizhuang to calculate the restaurant's accounts.

"Brother Liang Ming, the Xiangmanlou branch is almost finished with renovations and will open in the next few days. Do you think we should arrange some opening activities to attract customers?"

Jiang Meizhuang sat leaning against Liang Ming, holding a pen and paper in her hand, asking for his advice.

Upon smelling Jiang Meizhuang's unique fragrance, Liang Ming felt invigorated.

He held Jiang Meizhuang's snow-white hand and said, "We definitely need to hold an opening event, and we need to make it bigger to spread our reputation."

"We want more people to know that our Xiangmanlou branch has opened!"

"Brother Liang Ming, what exactly do we need to do?" Jiang Meizhuang asked.

"We invited some prominent people to attend the opening ceremony of our Xiangmanlou branch and let them taste our restaurant's dishes."

Liang Ming said:

"As long as they are satisfied with the taste of our restaurant, we are not afraid of not having customers."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Meizhuang also felt that it made sense, and chuckled, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Seeing Jiang Meizhuang leaning against him like a kitten, Liang Ming's breathing became slightly rapid.

Previously, he only thought Jiang Meizhuang was a cold, mature, and sophisticated woman.

Unexpectedly, after confirming their relationship, Jiang Meizhuang turned into a docile and obedient little woman, putting him first in everything.

This ability to be both docile and obedient is something Liang Ming finds irresistible.

His gaze couldn't help but drift to Jiang Meizhuang's pink, fragrant lips. He swallowed hard and said, "Sister Meizhuang, I want..."
