Chapter 169 - 169: 165: Reeducation
“What made you choose this line of work?” Finn Lewis asked after nodding.
“Actually, it’s not too bad. Everyone has their own path. If you want something, you naturally have to give up something. In fact, working here can be quite nice, as long as you can stay level-headed. The people you meet can also become a type of resource,” Violet voiced quietly.
Violet now seemed completely different from a moment ago, like a primary school student answering their teacher’s question. Even her seated posture was extraordinarily honest.
“Yes, that makes sense. Order whatever you like, you don’t need to restrain yourself. I came here to relax,” Finn Lewis pondered. Violet was considered a good hostess. She might get taken advantage of by some, but for her to agree to anything more, she has to be willing. If she’s not, even the boss would stand by her. That’s one business strategy. Of course, it all depends on the kind of client. If he’s influential enough, all of this would be a house of cards.
“Mr. Lewis, is this your first time here?” Violet curiously asked. By saying so, Finn Lewis indicated that it didn’t matter what she asked, nobody came here bothered about such things. Plainly put, they, the hostesses, were the ones who listened to people venting their emotions.
“Yes, it’s my first visit,” Finn Lewis nodded.
“Did you come because of that gentleman who was here earlier?” Violet asked with a smile.
“You noticed?” Finn Lewis smiled back.
“It wasn’t hard to guess, since not many require us to strike up conversations in such a manner, and even call for Ella Long to serve them,” Violet also let out a chuckle.
“Ah yes, that’s my younger brother. He doesn’t exactly lead a good life, hanging around outside with some bad habits he doesn’t want to change, so I brought him here for a bit of reeducation,” Finn Lewis explained with a smile.
“Aren’t you afraid that such an experience could land a huge blow to your brother, possibly causing him to fall into depression? It can be quite damaging,” Violet joked.
“With me as his brother, how could he possibly lose his spirit like that? Just how fragile would he have to be?” Finn Lewis responded with a light smile.
This strong self-confidence in his tone struck Violet as a sudden realization,
“True, maybe I was overthinking it.”
“By the way, how old is Ella Long?” Finn Lewis questioned after some thought.
“She’s a fresh university graduate, also 24. But she has a baby face, which we are unable to compete with,” Violet promptly expressed, her face full of mock distress. This was probably put on for Finn Lewis to ease the atmosphere, something they had gotten skilled at over time.
“Haha, indeed. So, what are your future plans?” Finn Lewis asked with a raised eyebrow, flashing a smile.
“Future?” Violet paused before shaking her head, “I’m not sure. Maybe I’ll work here for another year or two, then I plan to find a regular job.”
“Right, a place like this, if you stay too long, you will eventually encounter difficult situations. Now you can follow your own will, agreeing or disagreeing. But sooner or later, you’ll encounter situations you can’t fight back. For instance, if I wanted both of you to accompany me today, do you think you could refuse?” Finn Lewis said cheerfully, drawing his face within ten centimeters of Violet’s.
A glint of panic flashed in Violet’s eyes, but she held it in and stammered, “I… I’m not sure.”
“Haha,” Finn Lewis chuckled. Sometimes spending time with a beautiful woman could be entertaining. But then again, that depends on the kind of person. The two beauties before him demonstrated perseverance. They were extremely attractive, and Finn Lewis had already made sure they were of good character before he agreed to spend time with them.
Finn Lewis and Violet Worthington chatted at the bar for half an hour before returning to their places. When they got back, Jason Wells and Ella Long were still engrossed in conversation.
As he settled back down, Finn Lewis merrily drummed his fingers on the table and announced, “Alright, no more chatting. We’ve been out for quite a while now. Let’s head back, it’s almost midnight and we have things to do tomorrow.”
“Okay… umm, Ella, could I take down your phone number?” Jason Wells hesitated. He knew very well that without Finn Lewis, he wouldn’t have been able to come here. After a moment’s hesitation, he looked at Ella Long and asked her for her phone number. As he did so, Finn Lewis almost burst out laughing. However, he had to admire that Ella Long was a real professional. Jason Wells would have a tough time trying to resist someone as skilled as Ella Long.
Ella Long was surprised that Jason Wells would ask for her number in front of Finn Lewis. She instinctively glanced at Finn Lewis. “Why do you want her number? If you want to come here in the future, I can bring you and you can see them at any time,” Finn Lewis said, pretending to be annoyed.
“Huh? Bro, what do you mean by that?” Jason Wells was taken aback.
“What do I mean? They are hostesses here, and their fees are not cheap. But of course, they can accompany you for drinks,” Finn Lewis nodded and explained.
Jason Wells immediately looked at Ella Long, who nodded, smiled, and said courteously, “Mr. Wells, we look forward to your next visit.”
“You…” Jason Wells’s face turned bright red. It was unclear if he was embarrassed or angry. After a while, he inhaled deeply and asked Ella Long,
“So, everything you told me earlier was a lie?”
“In what way?” Ella Long continued to smile and ask.
“About you attending university,” Jason Wells said.
“No, not at all. I graduated from A University’s foreign language department, and I should be able to get my master’s degree next year,” Ella Long shook her head as she continued smiling.
“This… how is that possible,” Jason Wells was stupefied, and then he asked in disbelief. Finn Lewis did not respond; he knew very well what kind of people the hostesses here were. Did you think they were the same as the ones in night clubs? As Ella Long mentioned, she was a graduate from A University. Violet also graduated from A University, but she studied Business Management.
If it had been Finn Lewis from before, he would have found it hard to comprehend. As graduates from A University, were they worried they wouldn’t find a job? Of course not. But even if they graduated from A University and got a job in a big company, how much would they earn initially? 5000 yuan? 10,000 yuan? However, just now, Finn Lewis had spent 50,000 yuan for their company for one hour.
Even though the club would take a large portion of it, they each could still make about 10,000 yuan, just from chatting. Otherwise, why would an A University graduate master’s student sit here and chat with you? And in those high-end clubs in Celeston City, these famous university graduates meant nothing. Even if you wanted a celebrity for companionship, they could arrange it..
