Chapter 420: 414: Family Banquet

Such detailed rules intrigued many who were interested in the movie, leading them to the official website to learn more. Numerous media onto this story with a scrutinizing attention soon started accumulating their findings and claimed, “This could represent an unprecedented reform in the film industry! If so, the cost of film production might drop to unimaginable levels.”

“Firstly, there’s no need for any filming equipment, as everything is done within the game. The largest expense, at most, would only be the time fee charged by the game. What’s that, two cents per hour? Can that even be considered a cost? It’s affordable even for common folks. In fact, this movie, scheduled for screening in 2662 cinemas across the North Federation in a week, has been made by a group of ordinary Flame Nation gamers. The production costs are unimaginably low. So, what might the box office figures be? Even with box office earnings of 10 million Federal coins, the filmmakers would definitely be in profit!”

“Could this low-cost approach instigate a revolution in Floral Village’s filmmaking process?” Indeed, the discussions sparked by the media almost made Finn Lewis laugh out loud. With countless film critics and directors from Floral Village joining in, this game-inspired movie quickly became the eye of the storm.

As a result, countless people within the North Federation learned about the movie, which was entirely produced using game content. Naturally, HQ Film Company didn’t miss this golden opportunity for publicity. Two trailers and some film brochures were spread across the entire North Federation in no time.

At this critical moment, Finn Lewis found himself facing a significant event: accompanying Kay Lee to her grandfather’s birthday celebration. He arrived in the West Swallow Province two days before the North Federation premiere of the movie, “Seven Nights Prince”.

Kay’s grandfather was from West Swallow, but not in the central city. Instead, he lived in a small county town near the Black Dragon Pool in Randy County under Meadow Mountain City. As the name suggests, the town was located near a large reservoir – the Tri-Fork Reservoir – originally known as Black Dragon Pool. Although small, the town was well developed and constructed.

The mountainous region posed some challenges to road travel. Given that this was Kay’s grandfather’s birthday and none of the attendees, including Amelia Lee, knew about Finn’s identity, he chose to keep a low profile. Even though he brought Olivia Thatcher, Little Olivia looked inferior to Kay’s Leah, in terms of outward appearance. While the cool and chic design of Leah was undoubtedly attractive, Olivia appeared to be simply a sedan. Not cheap-looking, but those who did not recognize the car’s logo would mistake it for a regular car.

Finn chose to drive Olivia for its safety assurance on the mountain roads; he was sure it would not encounter any troubles.

“Why do I feel like you’re nervous?” Kay asked, chuckling at Finn’s expense.

“I’m not nervous at all,” Finn quickly responded with a glance at Kay.

Kay chuckled again, refraining from commenting further. Her mood had been exceedingly bright for the past few days and she couldn’t put her finger on why. The thought of Finn agreeing to accompany her home for her grandfather’s birthday always made her feel somewhat shy. She knew what this gesture meant; even though Finn had yet to confess his feelings for her.

But this didn’t bother Kay at all. In fact, she enjoyed this sensation. It felt as if they were two people who were meant to be together, allowing things to progress naturally. Although there were no declarations of love or ceremonies, this natural progression made Kay feel exceptionally warm-hearted.

This thought caused her gaze at Finn to soften without her even realizing. Finn was driving with full concentration. Although he denied being nervous, his claim wasn’t entirely truthful. After a certain degree, once Kay’s grandfather approved of him, their relationship would be officially recognized.

It was almost like he was meeting his prospective in-laws, and knowing that this meeting had so much certainty attached to it, Finn was naturally somewhat nervous. “Relax, there won’t be too many people at my grandfather’s birthday. He dislikes fuss. Maybe some of his old war buddies will pop by,” Kay speculated with a smile, promptly extending a hand to pat Finn’s forehead lightly. “Come on, Mr. World’s Richest Man, are you really afraid of meeting a few commoners?”

“It depends on who these commoners are. I’m really nervous right now,” Finn said, trying to lighten the mood with a smile.

Kay covered her mouth and giggled. She then reassured him, “Don’t worry. My grandfather is a really nice person.”

“I trust your judgement,” Finn responded, nodding with a smile.

It didn’t take long for them to arrive at Kay’s grandfather’s house in Olivia due to the small size of the county town. The house was not exactly within the county town, but in a small village nearby which was clearly prospering. A newly laid tarmac road led straight to the entrance of the village where every pathway had been reinforced. Kay’s grandfather’s house was towards the east end of the village, a two-story villa that didn’t hugely differ from its neighbors.

The only difference was, it had a considerably larger yard with a half-human-height wall. Even from a distance, you could see the two-acre enclosure within the yard, filled with a variety of vegetables. At that moment, seven or eight cars, most of them expensive, were already parked in the yard.

The sight of these cars made Kay slightly tense, but she exhaled deeply, quickly returning to her relaxed state. Finn knew what was worrying Kay, and he reached over to pat her hand.

Their car immediately caught the attention of the people in the yard. When Finn parked at the entrance, someone walked out of the yard to greet them. Upon exiting the car, they saw an elderly man approaching. He was thin, but moved swiftly, with a high cheekbone structure. Although his hair had already turned silver and was short, it was clear he was in great health.

“Is that you, Kay?” The old man’s voice was heard before Finn and Kay could even open their car doors.
