Chapter Sixty-Five Family (Part 1)
“Why on earth can’t you help me? Didn’t you brag about being able to hook up with any woman? I’m giving you a real chance now.” Finn Lewis rolled his eyes.
“Dude, you’ve just said it yourself, that was all bluster.” Prince responded.
“Screw that! Listen up, guys, this dude has been boasting all this time, and if he doesn’t help me solve this problem now, we should punch him. Think about it, boys, your target girlfriends, those whom you haven’t won over, all seem to be fans of Kay Lee, right? If I could win her over, wouldn’t you all stop worrying about getting her autographs and photos?” Finn blurted out.
Chubby Callum and the others lit up. “That’s right, if Mr. Finn gets Kay Lee, these things will easily be within our reach. Just thinking about it, they instantly surrounded him and said maliciously, “Hurry up and think of something, or else you’ll receive the penalty of the dormitory.”
Prince chuckled weakly: “Guys, it’s not that I don’t want to help. If it were the other girls at school, I could totally land them, but is Kay Lee just another schoolgirl? Sure, she’s in college now, but she’s been in this circle for so many years and has much more social experience than us. She could spot a phony a mile away. My tricks won’t work on her!”
“We don’t care about all that, we just want to see results,” the guys quickly said.
“Alright then, but Mr. Finn, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but first, when you chase a girl, you need the right information. When we chase girls around campus, we first need to find out about their hobbies, daily patterns of coming and going, likes and dislikes, and so on. Details determine success! If you can get hold of these things, I’ll help you! If you can’t, it means I’m not the one avoiding helping you,” Prince immediately waved his hand majestically.
However, by the look on his face, Finn could tell this jerk was clearly assuming that Finn could never find out, and was making a show of it.
Finn looked at Prince with a hint of mischief: “This is what you promised, okay?”
After saying this, Finn immediately put his cell phone in front of Prince. The opened files were all carefully chosen by Finn, and some of them including what color underwear Kay Lee liked to wear. Finn didn’t let them see since he already considered Kay Lee as his girlfriend and didn’t want any other to know such secrets.
“Holy crap!” At the beginning, Prince was a bit skeptical, but after looking at it twice, he immediately widened his eyes and couldn’t help but exclaim.
“Mr. Finn, how did you do this?” Upon hearing Prince’s exclamation, the other guys leaned over to take a look. After a few glances, they looked up at Finn in surprise and asked.
“You don’t need to know how I did it. Now that you have the information you wanted, isn’t it time for you to help?” Finn raised an eyebrow and said.
“Well…Mr. Finn, it’s not that I don’t want to help, but I can’t. What if I mess things up for you? I really can’t afford to make any sloppy suggestions for you. Actually, Mr. Finn, you don’t need my help. With this detailed information, it’s easy for you to do it yourself. When pursuing a girl, all you need is courage, meticulousness, and thick skin. You already know all her routines and hobbies. Just focus on her interests and you should be good,” Prince said frustratedly.
Despite Prince’s stubborn denial, after taking a beating from everyone, he finally yielded, agreeing to give Finn suggestions which Finn could choose to take or not. It wasn’t until then that Finn let him off. Coincidentally, the food prepared by the owner was served, and a gang of people had a big meal. After finishing their meal, they practically sat motionless in their chairs, completely stuffed.
“Mr. Finn, you’re now considered tall, rich, and handsome. You’re ready to marry a white and rich beauty, right?” Chubby Callum grunted twice and began to speak.
“The first part is somewhat accurate, but the latter part is still far from happening.” Finn laughed, even though he was rich now, he didn’t hide anything from his buddies.
“Get a plan ready tonight. I’ll come over to see you tomorrow.” After leaving Tips, Finn patted Prince’s shoulder and said.
“Damn.” Prince rolled his eyes and reluctantly replied, “All right, I’ll go home and think about it.”
Prince and the others had to cram for exams. They hardly attended any classes, so it would be strange if they weren’t freaking out at this point. On the other hand, Finn, who had attended most of his classes on time, was not worried about the upcoming exams.
Looking at the time, it had just passed noon. Finn decided to take a slow walk around the campus. This street was a renowned food street near the school, full of restaurants of all sizes.
Although the weather was hot, it was a rare leisure for Finn. He had been in college for nearly three years and these leisure times were rare. All his time was bustling between part-time jobs. Even the upcoming summer vacation, Finn had never gone home, he only went home once during the New Year since his family lived too far away.
A half-Flame Nation away, it took more than two days by train, and the fare was a burden to Finn’s family.
Thinking about going home, Finn began thinking about his parents and immediately fell silent. He had wanted to send money home, but his parents are real farmers, as Robert Thomp said. His father just had a primary school education and his mother only went to junior high school. They had never left the provinces their entire lives. If he sent back a large amount of money suddenly, they might be frightened into having heart attacks.
So Finn suppressed the idea for the moment.
“Uncle, uncle.” As Finn was immersed in thoughts about how to tell his parents about what had happened to him, a crisp voice sounded. Finn snapped back to reality and looked back. A small girl of five or six years old was running towards him.
She was wearing ragged clothes, her hair tied into a ponytail on her head, but it had not been well done with strands of hair falling to her face. Her face was smeared with dust, appearing like a little tiger. In her left hand, she held a ragged fishing net bag, containing about twenty or thirty empty beverage bottles.
And in her right hand, she was holding a stack of red one hundred flame nation notes. “Uncle, you dropped your money, here.”
She walked up to Finn, stretched out her hand, and put the money into his hand. Finn paused and instinctively touched the back pocket of his trousers where his money was missing. It was the money he had just paid the bill with and had casually stuffed into his back pocket. It was about eight hundred yuan.
“Uncle, you have to be careful when you walk. Don’t lose it again.” The little girl gave Finn a serious warning, just like an adult admonishing a child, and then waved at him, “Goodbye, Uncle.”
Then she turned around and walked away, her left hand still holding the ragged net bag of empty beverage bottles as she walked into the distance. The net bag was large, and she was small, clearly unable to lift it but had to drag it along the ground, making a rustling sound.
Watching the little girl’s retreating figure, Finn stood there in a daze for a long time, looking down at the money in his hand, he didn’t know what to feel..
