"Iâve made inquiries. His family is in quite a big trouble and needs a lot of money urgently right now."
Daniel said with certainty, "If we offer 70,000 dollars in full, we can definitely take it."
"Brother-in-law, are you listening?"
Nancy couldnât help but speak up.
Because Luis was staring at Daniel somewhat blankly, which inevitably made Daniel feel a little smug, thinking his preparation had been particularly thorough.
But Luis really wasnât listening, because he had noticed an unusual situation.
The Persona tags were props from the System. Initially, Luis had approached them with a mischievous mindset and hadnât put much effort into studying them.
But now, looking carefully at the floating box above his brother-in-lawâs head, the three options, Cuckold, Homosexual,.... were visible.
Now, looking at them, the brightness of the three options differed. The "Cuckold" one was dim and lifeless, seemingly not activated yet, devoid of any vitality.
As for the "Homosexual" option, the font was thicker, and the background carried a faint glow, suggesting a hint of stirring potential.
Among the three tags, this one was the most prominent, presenting an almost overwhelming dominance.
Luis instantly understood how the attributes assigned by the Persona tags worked. Daniel definitely had that inclination already, but it still needed guidance to be fully realized.
The effect of the prop also depended on what happened. In other words, even Daniel himself found it difficult to face.
Especially since he had been heterosexual and lustful before, convincing himself to become gay and developing a cuckold fetish would still require your guidance.
Luis snapped out of his daze and immediately said, "Iâm listening, brother-in-law. Whatâs your plan? How much money are you short right now?"
Daniel immediately said seriously, "Your eldest sister and I have discussed it after looking into it for a few days. Weâve decided to sell our car and pool together 20,000 dollars. The gap is still huge, so itâs up to you whether youâre interested or not."
The eldest sister, Nancy, now acting more like a settled wife, said thoughtfully, "Brother-in-law, your brother-in-lawâs parents are very opposed to him doing this kind of thing."
"Doing other things is fine, but they strongly oppose running a nightclub. They feel money earned that way isnât secure."
Most importantly, as the eldest sister had mentioned before, everyone in their family had a formal, stable job. Daniel, being idle, was already an anomaly.
It wasnât that he was unwelcome, but at least he should do some business that the older generation considered reliable. Even if he wanted to set up a street stall, theyâd support him and praise him for being able to endure hardship.
In the eyes of traditional, conservative people, a nightclub is just not proper. No matter what job you do, even if you earn over ten thousand a month, itâs the same.
Another thing was that Danielâs image as lazy and gluttonous came first. No matter how you looked at it, he seemed like a good-for-nothing. If he didnât recklessly start a business and just lived off his parents steadily, his life would be more comfortable than anyone elseâs.
His parents were spared the worry, so regarding this matter, his family didnât support him. They directly told him if he had the ability, he should do it himself.
"Eldest sister, what do you think?"
Luis turned his head and asked. He had absolutely no interest in Danielâs grand ambitions.
Luis was interested in the welfare rewards for his sister-in-law from the System tasks. Damn, his car got smashed and he was docked over a million dollars. Right now, he was worrying about how to plug that hole first.
Now, just when he was lacking sleep, a pillow appeared. Luis almost laughed out loud.
When it came to money, Nancy became somewhat hesitant, not to mention the past where she and her husband had looked down on Luis.
The main issue now was that her brother-in-law was practically her adulterous lover, just one final, hard thrust away. To put it bluntly, their relationship was even more intimate than with her actual husband.
Nancy took a deep breath and said, "Brother-in-law, youâll understand once you see it later. I donât really understand business, but I feel such a good venture is really worth taking over."
After Daniel finished speaking, he fell silent. Nancy also seemed a little embarrassed.
Both their personalities were somewhat proud. If they werenât absolutely determined, they wouldnât have asked Luis for a loan.
Especially Daniel. He used to be sarcastic and looked down on Luis. For him to swallow his pride now proved this business could really make money.
"Okay, letâs go take a look later."
Luis was more concerned about Danielâs current attitude and how far the effect of the Persona tag had progressed.
The main thing was that last time, when Luis touched his wifeâs thigh and was seen, Daniel had been playing dumb as if nothing happened. This proved the "Cuckold" tag had started to activate.
They left right after finishing the meal, having only drunk a little symbolically, not much at all.
But Nancyâs face already carried a hint of wine-induced flush, adding a touch of seductive charm that made the already heavenly, ethereal sister-in-law appear even more alluring.
At the restaurant entrance, Daniel said earnestly, "Luis, think it over carefully. If I were to run Hans, I guarantee I could pay you back the 50,000 dollars within a year."
"I can write you an IOU, and Iâll give you double the bank interest."
Daniel finally added, "If it werenât for the fact that getting a loan on my house is very troublesome, and waiting for the loan approval would take too much time, I wouldnât have asked you."
"Iâll give you my answer tomorrow."
He hailed a taxi and went straight back to City Garden.
However, Luis did not go home. Instead, he headed excitedly to Yanaâs place in Phase Two.
"Yes, yes, itâs nothing serious, just a superficial injury!!"
After checking Luisâs wound and confirming he was fine, Yana let out a sigh of relief and immediately called Lily to report the situation.
She rushed back for two reasons: to go to work and to have the injury examined. As the absolute treasure of the Wood Family now, hearing that Luis was injured not only worried Lily terribly, but even his mother-in-law, Ruth, felt uneasy.
