Chapter 162 - 162: 158: Nightclub Scene
“Uncle, don’t worry. This time when I’m leaving, I’ll take Jason with me. I’ve got this.” Finn tenderly patted his uncle’s hand to comfort him. Finn wasn’t capable of doing this before, but now he wanted to teach his brother a lesson, make him change his ways. Finn had plenty of ways.
“Jason.” Everyone in the room knew why the uncle was upset, so when Finn called out Jason’s name, everyone quieted down.
“What?” Jason lifted his head to glance at Finn and then went back to eating his food, but he still responded to him.
“When I leave in a few days, come with me. Got a problem with that?” Finn asked, raising an eyebrow. Jason was the same age as Finn, just two months younger. This kid also knew he was jobless and unambitious, and usually did not have the audacity to appear at gatherings like this.
But today, because it was Finn’s first time coming over, he also came. This kid is not bad at his core. Although he mucks around outside every day, he’s far from dabbling in underworld affairs. At best, he’s just a low-level hooligan. If you really expect him to enter that realm, he simply doesn’t have the guts. Over the years, he’s become accustomed to this lifestyle, and probably accepted his fate. He’s developed a lazy habit that he can’t change.
“Bro, what am I going to do following you about? What you do is all high-tech stuff, and I’m not literate. Why should I go with you?” Jason obviously didn’t want to go. If anyone is in a bad mood tonight, it’s him.
It’s true that Finn gave him a house, and it is indeed worth millions, but Jason was still uncomfortable about it because he was the same age as Finn. Now Finn can generously gift houses in front of the entire family, but what about him? It’d be impossible not to be affected, but at least he had enough self-awareness to know he could never reach that point himself.
“Mom and Dad, keep eating. After dinner, you can go to my aunt’s place. Ann, you go with them. Jason, you come with me. Let’s take a walk outside.” Finn got up and said directly.
“Alright, you guys go.” Their aunt and others didn’t object. Jason was their nephew, and his failure to accomplish anything hurt them all. They were hoping Finn could find a way to guide him on the right track. Even if it meant settling down to learn a trade and getting a regular job, it’d be better than constantly worrying about him.
Jason had wanted to leave long ago. When he heard Finn calling him, he did not refuse. He got up right away and followed Finn outside. When they were outside the restaurant, Jason said, “Bro, I’m leaving first. I have stuff to do tonight.”
Obviously, this kid didn’t want to talk with Finn. He probably knew what Finn wanted to talk about. When Finn went to college, he had tried to have this talk with him before as well. But back then, Finn had just started college. Even though he was talking about major principles, judging by Jason’s state now, no major principles would work for him. If they did, he would have changed a long time ago.
“Hold on, where are you going? What could be more important than spending time with your brother who just came to town? I’m unfamiliar with Hello City. I want to go out and have fun tonight, but I don’t know where to go. Can’t you show me around?” Finn smiled faintly and stopped Jason right away.
He turned around, somewhat puzzled and looked at Finn, “Bro, you just want me to show you around for fun?”
“What else? Come on, is there any decent night club around here? Take me to have some fun. You’re pretty familiar with this aspect, aren’t you?” Finn asked, grinning cheerfully.
“Of course, alright. Since you’ve said this, then I’ll take you out for fun. But, I
don’t have much money.” Jason agreed when he saw that Finn didn’t want to talk, but wanted to go out for fun. His feelings for Finn were actually not bad. After all, they were brothers. Although not by blood, they had grown up together and were as close as real brothers.
“Don’t worry. Going out with your brother, do you still need to pay? Let’s go.” Finn laughed, then headed for his car. Jason also followed him immediately, chuckling, “Bro, your car is pretty nice. How about letting me drive?” “Do you have a license?” Finn asked, raising an eyebrow.
“Of course, I do. Don’t worry, I’m quite good at driving. It’s not like I haven’t driven a lot.” Jason bragged, rubbing his hands together quickly. Just like any other guy, he was drawn to nice cars. Jason was no exception. He had also driven cars before, but it was mostly limited to cars like Chery, Snow Red, or Light of Wildflower vans. When he saw Finn’s obviously fancy and valuable car, he couldn’t help but itch to give it a try.
“You can drive it.” Finn nodded, then walked over to the passenger side and opened the car door. Jason decisively went to the driver’s side, opened the door, and sat down. “Bro, where’s the car key?” As soon as he got in, Jason was taken aback. The car’s interior was clearly different from the cars he usually drove, and definitely not in the same class.
“No need for a car key. My car has a built-in smart control system. Olivia, come out and greet him.” Finn laughed and said.
“Hello Mr. Jason Wells. You can call me Olivia. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me.” Olivia’s voice then came on.
Jason was taken aback and stuttered, “Bro, how much is your car?” “Not too much, twenty million.” Finn smiled and replied.
“How much?” Jason was quite surprised.
“Twenty million.” Finn already told Jason the number, even though it was cut down by fifty times. But even so, it was a staggering number for Jason. He bit his lip, caressed the unbelievably comfortable steering wheel, and whispered, “Why don’t you drive, bro? I’m not very familiar with this car. It wouldn’t be good if I accidentally scratch it.”
He became a little afraid to drive it. A brief collision with those million-dollar Flying Horse cars on the street could cost thousands or tens of thousands. This twenty million car, if bumped, won’t that mean tens of thousands are gone?
“You drive, it’s no different from ordinary automatic cars. I don’t know the road so I still need you to show me the way.” Finn laughed and rejected Jason’s suggestion of swapping back.
After hesitating for a moment, Jason reluctantly started the car. But clearly, he drove extremely cautiously. Watching him being so tense while driving made Finn feel uncomfortable. But luckily, there was no problem with the car, and it easily got on the road. “Where are you planning to take me? It’d be best if you could find a good night club.” Finn looked at the scenery outside the window and casually started a conversation..
