Chapter 24: Debt
"What's so funny?"
Her laugh must have snapped the woman out of her daze which made her snap at Coco for hearing her laugh.
Coco was merely imagining how much money she would make if she were to bring two tigers, and that imagination alone made her snicker under breath. She wasn't laughing at the woman, she was laughing at how rich she would be!
Of course, the woman doesn't know this which made Coco let out an annoyed huff.
"I wasn't laughing at you, but whatever." Coco tried her best not to roll her eyes at the moment, not wanting the beautiful woman to feel offended then she asked again, "So? How many nights do I have for one gold coin?"
The woman rolled her pretty eyes at Coco and crossed her arms once again, "Twenty nights. If you're going to reserve and rent a room then it would only be ten days and eleven nights."
"Oooooh! Does that mean we can sleep here whenever we want, Coco?" Lala asked, her transparent red wings flapping with excitement as she flew to Coco's head and perched herself on top of Coco's head, "That would be amazing! I don't have to worry about you sleeping on the ground~"
Again, Coco can't respond to Lala's questions because they are still out in the open so all she could do is nod her head, the smile on her face never wavering.
The woman behind the desk could tell that there was something wrong with Coco, the usual temperament of the Hughes in front of her was nowhere in sight.
