“Yes, rest assured, Mr. Lewis, there won’t be any problem.” The manager, shocked by Finn Lewis’s words, quickly responded. Even though Finn didn’t consume much in this nightclub and only asked for genuine liquor, the prices of these liquors were certainly not cheap.

As soon as the manager turned and left, the four beauties at the table had already opened several bottles of liquor. They proficiently began to mix various drinks and started drinking with Jason Wells. Considering their familiarity, it was clear that even if they didn’t frequently accompany guests for drinks, they were pretty accustomed to such scenes in places like this.

Meanwhile, Jason sat rigidly amongst the four beauties, two of whom were almost pressing up against him. Finn just sat there, drinking silently, not uttering a word. The four girls were self-aware, none of them daring to disturb Finn. Despite the leading beauty stealing several glances at him, seeing Finn sitting there calmly with a faint smile, for some unknown reason, every time she summoned the courage to strike up a conversation, her braveness dissipated by Finn’s presence.

Not much time had passed, just over half an hour. Jason didn’t drink a lot, and his drinks were diluted mostly with non-alcoholic beverages. So drinking to the point of inebriation was out of the question.

“Alright, let’s go. Jason, do you want to take them with you? I can arrange a hotel room for you.” Finn stood up, cutting off the drinking party of five, and straightforwardly asked.

Jason was taken aback for a moment. Of course, he understood what Finn meant by “take them with you,” His understanding was enough through the years he’s been part of this world, regardless of his status within it. He instinctively looked at the four girls beside him, who he presumed would oppose or at least rebut Finn’s words. Unfortunately, though the smiles on the four beauties’ faces stiffened, none of them spoke out. Their silence was tacit approval.

Jason felt as if something inside him shattered. Yet, he couldn’t put his finger on what it was. After a while, he shook his head and said, “No need. Let’s just go, Finn.”

Finn gave a nod and made his way out. Jason followed suit. The manager, who had been observing them, saw them off before returning to the booth himself. The four girls remained seated in the booth. “They just left like that?” The leading girl murmured as if in disbelief as she saw the manager returning back. It seemed she sought confirmation more than anything else.

The manager glanced at the two suitcases filled with Flame Nation coins on the table amounting to a total of two million. He shook his head slightly. After all, he managed to notice something odd during their time here, “What do you think? Did you expect them to take you to a hotel room? That might have been the highlight of the evening for some, but bluntly speaking, he probably had no interest in any of you,” the manager shook his head again responding indifferently.

“Alright, you made a fortune today. With that, each of you made five hundred thousand simply by drinking with him for half an hour. Remember to invite me for a meal next time. Now, take this money and keep it safe. You can take the day off tomorrow. We’ll be expecting you the day after, is that fine?” The manager waved his hand as he spoke.

“No problem.” The four girls nodded in agreement. They were well aware of the fact even if they had an intention to be with someone like Finn, he might not necessarily welcome them.

As they left the nightclub and a night breeze swept in, Jason sobered up a bit. Finn smiled at him and said, “I can’t really get used to the environment in there either. Let’s do this, I’ll take you somewhere fun, I heard it from someone.”

After saying that, Finn patted Jason’s shoulder and made his way to his car.

Jason, paused in surprise for a moment before quickly following Finn into the car. This time, Jason didn’t insist on driving, but let Finn lead him without asking where they were headed. Though not very acquainted with Hello City, Finn had visited a few times. So, he wasn’t exactly unaware of the places around, especially since he had researched some places in advance. Or else, when they drove in earlier, Finn wasn’t actually playing around with his phone.

Soon, the car headed towards a more suburban area in the northern mountains of Hello City. Their car quickly entered the highway by the foot of the mountain. After following the road to a private club, the surroundings became quieter. Although it was Finn’s first time at the private club, he had all the necessary information, thanks to his assistant.

As the car pulled into the club’s parking lot, a security guard immediately stepped forward. After peering into the driver’s seat, the guard respectfully asked, “Sir, is it your first visit?”

“Yes, it’s my first time here.” Finn nodded.

“Please follow me.” The security guard nodded and led the way. Jason, somewhat curious, trailed behind Finn. He didn’t realize that Hello City had a place like this; the club occupied a very vast area and it seemed to have all sorts of entertainment facilities.

Once inside the club, the guard quickly led Finn and Jason to the reception desk. Since Hello City is not a very big place, there weren’t any guest restrictions. Otherwise, it would have probably been difficult for Finn to enter.

“Sir, we adopt a membership system here. So you’ll need to register for a membership card first.” Two identical-looking receptionists greeted them with a smile.

“Okay, I’ll get one. What are the options?” Finn casually nodded and asked.

“The annual fee for the basic Silver card membership is 500,000, the Gold card membership is 1 million, and the Diamond membership is 5 million,” the receptionist quickly rattled off a series of numbers.

“I’ll take the Diamond membership then. I suppose there are higher-level memberships as well?” Finn raised an eyebrow.

“Yes, but you have to be a member for a while before you can apply for them,” the receptionist explained softly after taking a glance at Finn.

“Well, then the Diamond membership it is.” Finn immediately took out his bank card and handed it over.

“Also, the charges for expenses here are deducted separately. So, sir, how much would you like to deposit in advance?” The receptionist asked. The 5 million was nothing more than the annual fee. To be honest, Finn had not expected to come across such high-end clubs in Hello City, which is probably why there weren’t many people around.

“20 million should do it,” Finn responded casually, throwing out a random number..
