Chapter 87: Chapter 87: Nicole: How About We Change the Repayment to 5 Times... No! How About 10 Times?
Just as Grace thought that after her generous admission, she would be scolded by Koleda, or at best, she would just get angry and run away, and then ignore her for a period of time. Unexpectedly, the other party's answer was...
"Really? That's great!"
"Eh?"
Grace looked at the elated Koleda in front of her with a blank expression. At this moment, she felt that her head was a bit unable to keep up. Why was the shorty so happy after knowing that she also liked Wise? Logically speaking, shouldn't she be very angry?
Then she heard Koleda continue to say, "Big sis, did you know? Actually... actually I really like Wise..." Hearing this, Grace subconsciously nodded, because she had known this for a long time.
"Wise and I are now boyfriend and girlfriend. And the kind that are inseparable. We will definitely get married in the future."
Eh? Hearing this, Grace was a little confused. So Koleda and Wise's relationship has already reached this stage? Why didn't I notice it before? But what surprised her even more was still to come.
"I was originally a little worried about you, big sis. But now that I know you and Wise also like each other, I can rest assured. This way, we can all live happily together in the future!" The 'we' in Koleda's words actually included Ben and Anton, meaning a big family.
But the speaker had no intention, while the listener had an idea. To Grace's ears, her words completely changed their meaning. Wh-what do you mean you know? You're relieved that Wise and I also like each other? So Wise also likes me? Grace was very excited in her heart, but what made her even more excited was Koleda's second half of the sentence.
So the shorty's idea is that she wants the three of us to live together? But is that really okay? Wouldn't it be a little... No! Since my younger sister has already thought so generously, then if I, as the older sister, hesitate any longer, it would be a bit too unreasonable! But before that, she still needed to confirm one more time.
"Shorty, do you not have even a little dissatisfaction with my relationship with Wise?" Grace decided in her heart that if Koleda hesitated even a little, she would firmly withdraw. However, the situation was...
"Eh? Dissatisfaction? Why? You and Wise have a good relationship, I'm overjoyed. Why would I be dissatisfied?"
"Do you really think so?"
"Of course! You know my personality, big sis. And I feel like you're a bit strange today, big sis. why are you asking so many questions?"
Hearing Koleda say so, Grace also completely confirmed the other party's meaning. She then said with some happiness, "No, it's just that it was a bit hard to accept for a moment. But don't worry, I'll definitely get used to it after a while. And... I'm also quite happy."
"Mmm, it's normal for you to find it hard to accept, big sis. I also thought for a long time before deciding how to tell you about this. And in this day and age, this kind of thing is not uncommon." Koleda thought that Grace was having a hard time accepting that she had confirmed her relationship with Wise so quickly, so she didn't think too much and instead started to console her.
And Grace was slightly stunned upon hearing this. Could it be that I've already deviated from the times? Although the thinking of young people nowadays is indeed more open, has it already reached this stage?
"It's not uncommon? Alright. No wonder you waited so long after Wise left to come and tell me about this."
"Uh, well... big sis, I suddenly remembered I have to go back and take a shower, so I'll be going first!" After saying this, Koleda ran away with a red face, looking a bit embarrassed, as if she were afraid that someone had discovered what she had just done.
Although Grace was also very confused, she just told her to run slower and not to fall. And then she began to think about how she should face Wise in the future.
And Wise, who had already returned to the video store, had already taken a shower and was now on the phone with Nicole.
"Hi, hello there. Sorry to keep you waiting."
"You did keep me waiting for a long time. So have you contacted Wrench, Nicole?"
"Hmph, of course! With me on the job, you can just wait for the good news."
Nicole's confident appearance made it difficult for Wise to doubt her too much. After all, once she received money, she was very reliable. It's just that this time, he didn't give her any money.
"Alright. As long as this matter is settled, I will waive a portion of your debt, and I also won't count your interest for the time being."
But after hearing Wise say this, Nicole couldn't help it. She asked him in a very shocked tone, "Eh, wait a minute! So you were counting my interest before?!"
"That's right. Isn't it normal for a debt to accrue interest? It's just because our relationship is very good that I haven't been counting yours before." Wise said this sentence essentially as a joke, but at the same time, it was also to urge the other party to repay a little when she had a surplus.
"Mmm, o-okay. How about you consider what I told you before? Anyway, you won't be at a disadvantage no matter how you calculate it, right?"
"Huh?"
Hearing this confused sound, Nicole thought Wise felt that this price was too high. So after thinking for a little while, she made up her mind, gritted her teeth, and continued to say, "If it really doesn't work, how about this? We don't settle it all at once. Each time, we'll count it as repaying 1/5... no, 1/10 of the debt. Is that okay?"
"Although... are you really okay with this?"
"No problem, absolutely no problem! And Wise, you actually really want it too, right? After all, every time we meet, you've been deliberately looking at my..."
"Ahem, let's talk about this later!" After interrupting Nicole's words, Wise began to talk about the monster that Belobog Heavy Industries had discovered on his own. And the reason he did this was also because he was afraid that Nicole would say something strange again, because Belle had already come to his side at this time. If the other party heard about that kind of transaction, then he would probably not be able to escape a round of nagging.
"Hm? Brother, you told Nicole about that monster?" Belle, who had heard Wise talking with Nicole, also came over at this time.
"Yeah. Because Nicole guessed that the matter at the plaza was related to us, so I just told her the whole story."
Belle also nodded upon hearing this. After all, Nicole was a trustworthy partner, so it was fine even if he told her. Seeing that she hadn't heard her previous conversation with Nicole, Wise also breathed a sigh of relief. But then he thought of another important matter.
"Let's not talk about that for now. Belle, there's something more important we need to do. So let's take some time to go to the Public Security Bureau."
"Oh? Are we going to turn ourselves in?"
"Don't think it's funny. If this matter isn't handled well, we really might be stopped by the Public Security officers. Because... our driver's licenses are about to expire!"
