Fifteen thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine.
Nicole: "! ! !"
How could a computer cost so much!
For a moment, Nicole thought she had a visual hallucination. She looked back and forth several times
to make sure it was that. Then she picked up the phone again.
When she was about to dial it, she withdrew her hand.
Jacob was obviously busy just now. She couldn't call him again. But looking at the computer box in
front of her, Nicole was so surprised that she didn't know what to do.
She didn't touch the computer box anymore. After thinking for a while, she went back on making cakes.
She shouldn't have asked for Jacob's opinion.
Jacob went back home early this evening. As soon as the noodles were put into the pot by Nicole, he
opened the door and entered the house. Seeing the computer box on the table in the living room, he
nodded with satisfaction. "It's fast. They've sent it to you."
Nicole poked her head out of the kitchen and said anxiously, "have a seat. The dinner will be ready
soon."
"Okay."
Jacob casually threw his suit jacket on the sofa and began to open the computer box. After opening it,
he turned on the computer and checked it. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the
computer, he skillfully began to install the software.
When Nicole came out with the noodles in her hands, she happened to see what was happening with
Jacob. Thinking of the price on the invoice, Nicole asked Jacob, "do you like this computer?"
"Not bad." Jacob replied.
"Let's eat first."
"In a minute."
Seeing that Jacob was doing it very seriously, Nicole began to doubt if she had misunderstood him.
Jacob bought it for himself, not for her.
After a while, Jacob washed his hands and began to eat.
"I've already installed the computer. You can bring it back home directly." After dinner, Jacob went back
to his bedroom.
Nicole, who had been refraining from asking, finally stopped suspecting that she was thinking too much
after hearing this. She followed Jacob into the bedroom.
"Well..."
Jacob turned his head, "What?"
Nicole swallowed nervously and asked slowly, "did you choose the computer outside for Jim?"
"Yes." Jacob took it for granted, "didn't you ask me to help you choose?"
"HMM... But I didn't expect you to buy it for me directly... "
Jacob frowned, "You don't like this one?"
Nicole hurriedly waved her hand, "no, It's not I don't like it, but..."
"What is it?"
"This computer... Fifteen thousand. It's too expensive. " Embarrassed, Nicole explained, "it's not that I
don't want to give up money, but that Jim is a junior high school student. It's a bit wasteful for him to
use such a good computer. So I think if you return the computer, I can buy a cheap one myself... "
After listening to Nicole's explanation quietly, Jacob didn't say anything. He opened the bedside table
and took two books. He bypassed Nicole and went straight to the study.
"Hey..." Nicole ran after him and called him weakly, but Jacob seemed not to hear it at all and closed
the door in front of Nicole.
Although Jacob didn't say anything to refute, his action was telling Nicole that he didn't like to listen to
what she said just now.
He didn't like it at all.
Looking at the closed door of the study, Nicole sighed helplessly and went back to the table to clean up
the table. She thought she didn't say anything wrong. The computer was indeed expensive. She was
sure that she said it in a soft tone, wondering why Jacob was unhappy.
After cleaning up the kitchen, Nicole went back to the living room. Looking at the shining computer, she
was lost in thought. Now she was doing live streaming and making money, and she could afford more
than 10000 computers. Although it was much more expensive than her original budget, good things
always had the value of good things.
Otherwise, she didn't have to return it.
Nicole thought about it alone for a while. After persuading herself, she went to the kitchen to make a
glass of juice and knocked on the door of Jacob's study.
"Come in." Jacob's voice was cold.
Nicole opened the boxes, walked in with juice in her hands, and gently put it at the hand of Jacob,
"drink some juice, supplement vitamin."
"Okay."
"Is there anything bothering you?" Nicole glanced at the file in Jacob's hand and found that he seemed
to be in a bad mood, so she asked softly.
"Not bad." Obviously, Jacob didn't want to talk much. His attitude was totally different from that when he
came back just now.
Noticing that Jacob was still angry, Nicole thought for a while and said, "we can keep that computer.
You don't need to return it."
Finally, Jacob looked away from the folder and glanced at Nicole. "Oh.".
"It doesn't matter if it's expensive or not. Besides, it's you who picked it for me." Seeing Jacob's attitude
changed, Nicole continued in a hurry.
"I've already chosen one at a very low price, but with your brother's current use, it's absolutely enough."
"Of course." Nicole gave a flattering smile.
Jacob slammed the folder. His tense face slowly softened. He picked up the juice at hand and drank it
all in one gulp.
Nicole breathed a sigh of relief, but it was really uncomfortable to stand still without saying anything.
She took the empty cup and carefully asked, "then.. I transfer the money to your card? "
"What?" Jacob was stunned.
"You have helped me check the computer. I can't ask you to pay for it, can I?" Nicole said naturally,
"besides, this is a gift for my brother. I should pay for it."
Jacob's face fell at once. He stared at Nicole for a few seconds with an inexplicable expression, and
suddenly said coldly, "get out!"
"What?"
"Get out. Don't disturb my work." Jacob said as he picked up the folder again.
Nicole was confused, but when she saw that Jacob had changed back to the mode of refusing to talk,
she felt embarrassed to say more, so she had to leave the study in disappointment and sadness.
Hearing the sound of the door being closed, Jacob gritted his teeth and looked up at the closed door.
idot!
Jacob was pissed off by Nicole's words. In his opinion, Nicole treated him as an outsider and separated
from him.
Yes, they didn't get so closed yet. But since he had bought it for her, couldn't she happily accept it and
express her gratitude to him in happiness?
If she didn't show her thanks, it would be fine. But what was worse that she came to calculate the
money with him.
'what? Is he Jacob that narrow-minded in her eyes?
Jacob was so angry that he gasped for breath. He was mad at himself for being amorous, and at Nicole
for being ungrateful. Jacob had never seen such an ungrateful woman in his life!
