“Chapter 88: Even Zero was Startled
“There’s another idea. Could you gather her itinerary, as well as the cities she frequently visits?” Finn Lewis thought for a while, tilted his head, and asked.
“What are you planning to do?” The Prince immediately stared at Finn and questioned.
“Well, nothing really, I was thinking, if I opened up a ‘Moon of West Lake’ chain restaurant in every city she frequents, specifically to serve her, do you think she’d be touched?” Finn scratched his chin as he asked.
Upon hearing Finn’s words, both the Prince and Daniel Pan were dumbfounded. Holy crap! Is this how you pursue a woman? Isn’t this just finding ways to squander your fortunes? “Yes! Absolutely, she definitely will be,” The Prince glared at Finn and argued, hiding his bitterness.
“Crap, what’s up with your tone? Why are you so resentful? You sound like a resentful housewife!” Finn rolled his eyes.
“Damn, are you really asking? Are you trying to make our existence futile? To win a girl over, you plan to open a restaurant in every possible city she could visit? And exclusively serve her? Do you know what you’re doing? Wealthy people like you deserve to be beaten up. Come here, I assure you I won’t beat you to death.” The Prince grumbled.
to achieve this goal. Do you know how many cities a multi-talented actress like Kay Lee, who is also popular worldwide, will need to travel every year?” Daniel, on the other hand, chuckled as he spoke.
“This sort of funding isn’t within my scope of provision.” Surprisingly, Zero’s voice echoed in Finn’s mind. Finn rolled his eyes, feeling helpless; without funding from Zero, his own funds…Well, this is indeed an immense and lengthy amount, even within China, it would be astronomical, not to mention overseas cities.
However, Finn completely ignored this. He was so recklessly squandering his wealth that even Zero was frightened. Whether Zero was truly frightened, was hard to tell.
If Zero didn’t provide the capital, Finn could think it through and gradually do it on his own. Starting with one city and moving on to the next. Eventually, he would cover the entire Globe. Maybe he would create something equivalent to McDonald’s. But he absolutely wouldn’t turn his restaurant into a one-size-fits – all kind.
“This massive undertaking begins with a single step. I think my idea still has potential.” Finn rubbed his chin and said.
“This is your dream of squandering wealth.” The Prince rolled his eyes, “Enough, Daniel and I are leaving. You can handle this yourself. Damn it, staying with you is just a blow to our motivation.”
“Damn, don’t leave. I still need your help with cover. If you guys leave, what am I supposed to do?” Finn hurriedly stopped the Prince. If this guy left now, who will stay behind in the restaurant to tell the servants whom they should be serving?
The three of them joked around for a while. The customers in the restaurant soon left but naturally, Finn and the others stayed behind. They were still waiting for a certain person’s advertisement shooting to be completed. To be honest, even though Finn Lewis was always joking around with the Prince, his mind was elsewhere, full of anticipation. This was the goddess who had once occupied his heart! Especially when Zero told Finn that Kay Lee was still a… virgin, it made her even more of a goddess to him.
You have to say, for a man, even though they don’t talk about it, it does bother them deep down. Of course, this could be interpreted as a man’s perception of the perfect woman.
Time slowly passed by, and with Zero consistently providing updates, Finn was naturally aware of the shooting progress. They finally finished shooting the last advertisement at 12:30 in the morning.
“Alright, she has finished shooting the advert. But I don’t know if she’ll be able to come today.” Finn gently shook his head, pretending to check his phone, and said.
“Let’s get prepared first, though we’d generally close ‘Moon of West Lake’ at this time. We’ve kept it open today and if she sees it, I believe she will come.” The prince quickly responded.
Finn nodded and then told the Prince to explain to the waitstaff. Anyway, all the waiters knew that the woman who was coming was going to be pursued by their future Boss. They definitely wouldn’t dare to take it lightly and moreover, haven’t they heard their boss said, this restaurant will no longer entertain other customers? It’s specifically prepared for this one woman. So, today with the boss here, whether they perform well or not ties in to their future salary and benefits.
After the shooting, Kay Lee was visibly exhausted. The director today was a bit intense, with meticulous attention to details. However, Kay Lee is always professional and unlike some superstars, if the director says it’s not good, then she continues shooting. The advertisement that would usually be finished by 9 o clock was stretched all the way till after midnight. Thankfully, it was successfully wrapped up.
But after finishing the shooting, Kay Lee’s stomach started to rumble. As a female artist, it’s essential to maintain her figure, which means her food intake has to be carefully measured. She didn’t have much for dinner, and after tiring herself till past midnight, she was already quite hungry.
After bidding everyone goodbye with a smile, she, who has been smiling at everyone through the night, now had a stiff face. But such professional smiles, she has long been accustomed to them. For people like them, often times, a smile likely only represents a facial expression and doesn’t necessarily correspond to happiness.
“Emily, I’m stepping out for a bit. You guys should go home; I’ll go back to the hotel on my own.” After getting ready in the backstage makeup-room, Kay stated.
“Kay, isn’t it too late?” Emily, who is Kay’s assistant, knew Kay’s habits, so she didn’t ask what Kay was going to do. She was just a little worried that it was too late for her to go out.
“Don’t worry, it’s always been this late. Plus, who’d recognize me in this disguise?” Kay chuckled, sounding somewhat exhausted. “I feel like being alone for awhile, and relaxing.”
“Okay.” Emily hesitated before nodding in agreement. Anyway, this wasn’t the first time this sort of thing happened. After saying goodbye to her own assistant, Kay Lee slipped away from the company through the back door. This was a route she was very familiar with, having done this many times. Despite it being past midnight, in city S, the nightlife was just starting; a lot of people were still swaying under the spotlight.
Kay Lee, taking a stroll on the street and observing the pedestrians around her, started to feel relaxed. It was only during these solitary moments, that she didn’t feel as tired. In her early years, she came here with two main objectives: one, to chase her dreams and two, to give her mother and grandmother a good lifestyle. Although her grandfather loved her deeply, she had an icy relationship with her father, and they barely spoke with each other.
Because of this, her grandfather’s relationship with her father wasn’t very good. Instead, he was extremely supportive of her and her mother. Even though he offered money, Kay Lee refrained from accepting it. She wanted to be independent and achieve everything through her own efforts. Now, she had achieved success, and fulfilled her dreams, but she was incredibly exhausted. She was mentally drained. Even though she was only 22, it was during these lonely moments that she felt the most at peace..
