Super Spender

Chapter 478: 472: Reception

There were some matters concerning WY that, although Finn Lewis didn’t have to decide on, he needed to be informed about. Fishy Wells took care of these matters. This was the first time Kay Lee had met Fishy Wells. As for the other person, that was Sarah Wood. Finn was at a loss for words as Sarah insisted on going with them.

She used the excuse that she was the agent, arguing that she should accompany them. Kay Lee was not there for business negotiations, so Finn didn’t understand why her agent needed to tag along. However, he didn’t want to oppose her outright, so he let her come along.

The private jet crew was already waiting on the plane. Kay Lee and Sarah Wood were quite familiar with the crew since they had flown on Finn’s private jet several times before to attend various events.

The plane flew directly from Celeston City to Hello City’s White Tower Airport. Finn didn’t explicitly notify the airport about the exact flight time, but the airport was certainly aware. Anytime a private jet flies to a domestic airport, the airport has to be notified in advance to coordinate management.

The two-hour-plus flight wasn’t that hard to bear. They watched a new movie in the onboard cinema, and before they knew it, the plane was landing at White Tower Airport. Finn’s private jet had full insulation, providing a much quieter ride than a regular flight, so the flight was quite comfortable.

As soon as the plane landed and the cabin door was opened, Finn saw several neat lines of cars waiting below. There were at least three to four dozen people waiting, including journalists and officials. Although Finn found this somewhat overwhelming, he couldn’t show any displeasure since this was all to welcome him.

Sarah Wood and Fishy Wells carefully took a couple of steps back. Kay Lee had plenty of experience dealing with such situations. She confidently linked arms with Finn and then walked down the boarding stairs with him. Finn couldn’t help but sigh at the sight – he felt like he was on a state visit. What treatment!

A group of leaders had come to meet Finn because he was planning to invest. One was called Adam Terry, and the other was Justin King.

Finn didn’t need to worry about this aspect. Since Jack Lewis had already given the heads up and they still dared to behave like this, they must have received instructions from above, so Finn didn’t fret about it.

Since they had come to greet him, there was no way he could decline the lunch invitation that was bound to follow before heading home. And, if he were to invest in Inner Mongolia, the Autonomous Region office would need to agree regardless.

The cars they provided were quite interesting – no sedans, just a brand-new minivan that could accommodate ten people. Naturally, Finn and Kay Lee got on this car, and nearly all of the Autonomous Region’s Standing Committee members climbed on as well. An investment from the world’s richest man would be a significant boost to the Autonomous Region’s economy, contributing greatly to their political achievements.

“Mr. Lewis, I heard that you came back this time to invest in building a factory here, is it true?” Adam Terry couldn’t help asking as soon as they got on the car.

“Yes, I grew up in Manchester, so when I decided to invest in a factory, it was only natural to choose our hometown. We will definitely need the Autonomous Region to support us.” Finn hadn’t interacted much with government officials before – his only experiences were from TV. Fortunately, Finn was confident, and he wasn’t intimated by these officials.

Little did they know that fortune was about to turn their way. They received a notification last night that Finn intended to build a factory in Inner Mongolia. For both Justin King and Adam Terry, this was like a windfall. They held an overnight Standing Committee meeting to discuss this matter. Not only that Finn was building a high-level, state-of-the-art factory, but simply having the world’s richest man invest in their region was a big deal already. So their lavish welcome was not at all exaggerated!

Both sides had a jovial conversation. What surprised the officials was that Finn, true to the rumors, was extremely affluent, and didn’t discuss any specific conditions with them. They happily finished the banquet.

While Finn was chatting with Olivia Thatcher, several members of the flight crew helped Kay Lee move all of her belongings from the aircraft. Due to the presence of officials, Finn hadn’t brought any other items when he disembarked. After the lunch was over, Finn and the crew made a second trip to the airport to collect the rest of their things.

As expected, Kay Lee wasn’t comfortable with others handling her things. She had personally picked out all the gifts she had bought, and had been involved in packing her own luggage. Even when they boarded the plane, she had supervised the loading of each item herself, in case anyone mishandled something. Knowing how nervous Kay Lee was, Finn calmly accompanied her to collect her things.

Once all the items were ready, Finn ended his conversation with Olivia Thatcher. He walked over to Kay Lee, who had just arrived, and smiled, “Are we all set?”

Kay Lee blushed slightly as she replied in a low voice, “I’m ready.”

“Then let’s go.” Finn opened the car door, extended his hand, and gestured for her to get in.

“Hold on, does this outfit look good? Is it too casual?” Kay Lee asked, looking down at herself.

“No big deal. My parents aren’t out of touch.” Finn said, struggling to hold in his laughter. Kay Lee’s outfit was leaning more towards formal wear. It was of the casual style, but it was still quite formal.

“Then… alright. But you have to keep your word, or I’ll beat you up.” Kay Lee’s face turned slightly red as she shook her small fist at Finn.

“No worries; I’m not fooling you. But I think they’ll probably be astonished once they see you,” Finn said with a smile.

“Why?” Kay Lee was somewhat nervous.

“Because they never imagined their son could bring a goddess home.” Finn replied laughingly.

“Stop it.” Kay Lee playfully punched him. Finn quickly reacted and caught her hand, reassuring her, “Okay, you are beautiful, you are perfect. There’s nothing to worry about.”

“Okay.” Drawing strength from Finn’s touch, Kay Lee nodded seriously.

After getting in the car, the convoy immediately started from the airport. As for entering and exiting the airport, Finn didn’t need to worry; Fishy Wells coordinated everything. What made Finn happy was that he finally managed to get rid of a certain third wheel – Sarah. She wisely checked into a hotel instead of tagging along to meet Kay Lee’s future mother-in-law.
