The elite gathered here were all familiar with the Federation Language. However, Finn Lewis had stunned everyone with his exceptional display. If one also counts the language of the Flame Nation, he just demonstrated proficiency in nine foreign languages! Furthermore, Finn spoke so fluently that it was clear to everyone this was beyond basic understanding – he was truly exceedingly proficient in each language!
The way everyone looked at Finn had irrevocably changed. A man who could competently speak nine languages in his twenties, what notion was that? It was the mark of a linguistic genius! And what was it that he just mentioned?
He owned 4.8% of the shares in Apple, worth 30 billion Federation coins?!
Pulling this off just by developing a piece of software? This suggested that his talents clearly weren’t limited to languages. How to describe him? A prodigy?!
“Can’t you understand? If not, I could switch to a language you do understand? How about a few phrases in a local African dialect? I’m sorry, I might not be very skilled, but I happen to know it just fine!” Finn’s expression was one of pure nonchalance, laziness even. His face seemed to be begging for a punch. But at this moment, no one dared to look down upon Finn anymore.
Finn had truly gone beyond the reputation of being a mere prodigal. He was now also deemed a genius! Although it was just in languages for now, the facts Finn had stated could easily be verified. And it would be known pretty quickly if such a major shareholder had indeed appeared in the Apple Corporation!
Seeing the stupified look on Bryski Miller’s face, Finn was ecstatic!! He absolutely loved this feeling! Damn it! You can’t outshow me in wealth, nor can you beat me in intelligence! Haha, when he flaunted his language skills back in Graham Kingdom, the thrill from that experience made him fall in love with the task of learning languages, which he, in the past, perceived as a Herculean challenge.
But for Finn now, it was just a matter of some extra effort! He definitely would not tell everyone that he learned all these languages solely to show off! No wonder the protagonists in many TV shows who could speak several languages directly crushed their opponents. Damn, this feeling was exhilarating!
Damn it, I will annihilate you in minutes with words you can’t comprehend! What can you do about it?! Finn discovered a unique sense of superiority like a top student. Damn, once I earn a large number of credit points, I must get some potion to drink. Finn lost himself in his thoughts.
“Ugh” Bryski, who was standing there dumbfounded, let out a strange noise from his throat, and fell backwards onto the ground!
“What the fuck! He fainted! This is insane!” An astonished young man not far from Bryski could not help but exclaim. Chaos ensued immediately at the place. Finn was also stunned. He didn’t expect to straight up incapacitate Bryski, who had even passed out. The matter should be over now, right? Damn it! Don’t mess with me, or I’ll ruin you!
Finn hummed, and arrogantly swished the microphone in his mouth, saying: “Today, all the pre-ordered Dura cars are discounted by 50%! I’m in a good mood today! Enjoy the big discount! Sir, if you don’t believe in Dura’s acquisition, you can confirm with Mr. David Lancaster. I’ll take the lady home first. I hope everyone enjoys their day.”
Having said that, Finn threw the microphone in his hand. The doors of the black Goddess of Light car behind him automatically sprang open. Finn immediately climbed into the driver’s seat, Kay Lee naturally taking up the passenger seat. Finn then started the car, performed a drift on the spot, and took off through another exit.
As for the consequences of today’s events, why should Finn bother so much? Live in the moment with your booze, isn’t it superfluous to worry about tomorrow? Besides, he had a beauty by his side.
“I’m sorry.” Finn suddenly said after they left the racecourse.
“Huh? Why?” Kay Lee’s heart was still racing. Finn’s earlier display was reverberating in her mind. When Finn spoke, it felt as if he had a firm grasp on her heart, making her blush instantly.
“The incident with WY, along with today’s, might bring you some trouble.” Finn had handed over some pictures from the scene to Zero. Although the journalists wouldn’t get them, Finn didn’t get Zero to eliminate all pictures to avoid raising suspicion. He just removed some associated with him.
“No, I should be the one thanking you.” It was only then Kay remembered the matter, “But… when did you…” Kay didn’t know how to express herself properly, for the first time she felt like a ordinary girl facing a dominant man and didn’t know how to react.
You can’t blame her, Finn’s display of power was indeed too impressive. Just the wealth he flaunted was enough to surprise anyone. It was not a level she could reach.
With a “creak,” Finn pulled over, looked back at Kay. Seeing him, Kay’s heart started racing. She felt a burning sensation in her face. Her mind was in a mess right now. She didn’t know what to do. Her brain felt like a mush. Too many things had happened today, leaving her utterly clueless about how to handle them.
“Alright, Kay, can I call you that?”
“Of course.” Kay Lee immediately nodded in agreement, said softly, lowering her head, not daring to look at Finn Lewis.
“I’m not sure when I fell for you. Perhaps it was many years ago. At that time, you were already a big star and I was just an ordinary student. Moreover, my family was very poor. Don’t deny it, my family was really poor back then. The difference between you and me was like night and day. Once, I saw your interview and heard about your childhood and what had happened to you. At that moment, I suddenly felt that you in front of the TV seemed so helpless, and I just felt that, this girl, I must win her in this lifetime,” Finn began to speak slowly.
“Then later, I made some money and gained some abilities. Don’t argue, saying you don’t like money and such. I know you don’t like money. But you should understand that only by making money could I get in contact with you at all. If I remained just an ordinary fan, think about it, how could we have crossed paths?”
“I don’t know when I fell for you. I know it might seem a bit sudden. But things have progressed to this point already, and I think you know how I feel about you. Of course, I’m not asking for you to agree to anything right now. I just want to ask, can I have a chance? A chance to pursue you, to be that man who can protect you?” asked Finn, looking earnestly at Kay Lee.
Finn didn’t have the gift of gab, but what he said was from his heart. If his initial pursuit of Kay was because of a dream and Zero’s mission, then as time went by, the more Finn understood Kay, the more he fell for this girl.
She appeared weak on the outside, but her inner strength was invincible. She had a unique aura that other stars did not possess, an aura of tenacity, of never compromising on anything. Maybe in this respect, she was like her grandfather.
Raising her head to look at Finn’s sincere face, Kay Lee felt a mix of emotions.
After a while, she asked with seriousness, “Did you buy Moon of West Lake? Was our encounter that night arranged by you?”
“Uhh… Yes, it was. Because I thought if I didn’t meet you, I wouldn’t know who would chase you away,” Finn nodded honestly.
“So, the news that Moon of West Lake has changed ownership and is not open to the public anymore, that it operates solely for one person, was your decision?” Kay Lee asked, her eyes piercing as she looked at Finn.
‘Yes.”
“When I was at Galaxyshire for the WY press conference, Hannah Lincoln, the restaurant manager of Moon of West Lake, sent me a message saying that Moon of West Lake had opened a branch in Galaxyshire. As an old customer, I was welcome to eat there anytime. You asked Hannah to open the branch there, didn’t you?” continued Kay Lee.
“Yeah…l was planning to open Moon of West Lake branches in every city you’ve visited,” Finn mumbled.
Kay Lee’s eyes widened in surprise. After a long while, she finally said, “Come closer.”
Finn looked at Kay Lee curiously and then moved a bit closer. Suddenly, Kay Lee leaned in, her hands wrapping directly around Finn’s neck, her pink lips immediately pressed against Finn’s. As the sensation of softness pressed against his lips and the scent drifted into his nostrils, Finn’s eyes widened in surprise.
After a moment’s shock, Finn regained his composure. He reached out and pulled Kay Lee into his arms, kissing her back without hesitation. Finn was no novice. For now, he couldn’t take further action, but this kiss was something he couldn’t back down from.
With the slight quiver of the car, Finn hesitated no more and continued to kiss her.
