The place had already opened.
Though the restaurant was nominally owned by Hai Lan's mother, in reality, it was also property of the Wen Family.
Wen Jingheng had once hinted subtly that the Wen Family owned many businesses, all legitimate ones, but they couldn't be disclosed to avoid misunderstandings, so almost no one outside knew about them.
Hai Lan had deliberately asked with the same subtlety just how many businesses there were.
Wen Jingheng merely laughed and said, "Not that many, mostly just shares. But supporting ten of you would be absolutely no problem."
After becoming a star, Hai Lan's expenses were particularly high.
Just buying clothes was a huge expense, and that was unavoidable, as she needed to maintain the basic appearance of a celebrity.
Not to mention the other costs for jewelry, social reciprocity, various entertainment expenses, and so on.
She did earn quite a bit, but if she didn't work for a few years, she'd definitely be in tight straits.
