Chapter 645 Car
In the evening, Masayoshi Kishimoto came home from work for dinner. Shortly after he walked into the main house, he saw Sakai Mirei sitting on top of a single couch in the living room.
“What, you’ve used up all your living expenses again and came over to rub it in?” Masayoshi Kishimoto said, half-joking, half-serious, knowing that it wasn’t the weekend.
Sakai Mirei said bluntly, “Not at all! I was wanting a car. Nowadays, there are more people with cars among college students, and I’m the only one who doesn’t have one. If I had a car, it would be convenient to commute to Keio University from here.”
“Your sister agreed to buy you a car?” Masayoshi Kishimoto said as he walked over in her direction.
“She strongly disagrees with buying me a car.” Sakai Mirei was having a word in front of her sister.
Masayoshi Kishimoto walked over to Rie Sakai and sat down beside her saying, “Then I can only express my deepest sympathy for what you’re going through.”
“Brother Justice, how can you be like this? As far as I know, when you were in college, you also belonged to a family with a car.” Sakai Meiling said seriously.
“We’re different. College guys can’t easily pick up girls if they don’t have a car. You’re a girl, so you don’t have to have a car at all.
It’s more than possible to find a guy with a car as a boyfriend! For example, Suzuki Shinsuke, their family even owns a car factory.” Masayoshi Kishimoto blurted out.
Sakai Rie suddenly turned sideways to stare at him and said, “Looks like you didn’t pick up a lot of girls when you were in college!”
“I’m just speaking metaphorically. In college, even if I had a car, I never let the opposite sex get into my car. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Kazuya and Takayuki.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said in a beatific denial.
Sakai Rie laughed dryly and said, “You guys are just the same.”
“Why do you always hold on to things that are in the past? Who’s youth wasn’t ridiculous?” Justice Kishimoto said with reason.
“My youth is not ridiculous.” Sakai Rie said righteously.
“It’s precisely because your male and female love life is as white as a sheet of paper that I married you ah! You are so virtuous when it comes to marrying a wife. I am fortunate to be able to form a soul mate with you.” Masayoshi Kishimoto held back from laughing.
Sakai Meiling got a bit frantic and said, “You guys look at me instead. I want the car.”
Sakai Rie’s attention shifted from Masayoshi Kishimoto to her own sister’s side and said, “When I was in college, I didn’t have a car to drive either, but I still spent four years without any repercussions. Besides, the majority of college students don’t have cars, it’s not like they’re a minority.”
“But I can’t!” Sakai Mirei said as she showed a look of desperately wanting a car to drive.
“Then you’ll have to figure it out yourself. Anyway, I just don’t have one here.” Sakai Rie said unmoved.
“Brother Justice, say something!” Sakai Mirei, who hadn’t put her hopes in the other party, but instead had her mind set on Kishimoto Justice being able to solve it for her, said.
Masayoshi Kishimoto looked at Rie Sakai and said, “Otherwise, let Meiling take my old Porsche 911 and drive it first. As for the gas and whatnot, she herself will pay for it.”
Sakai Meiling instantly became unhappy and said, “I want a new car.”
“The first car in life often starts out as a used car. The advantage of this is that it’s free from all sorts of knocks, bumps, and scratches. It’s not too late to buy a new car after one’s driving skills are skilled.
What’s more, my old Porsche 911 is old, but at least it’s an entry-level supercar. It’s in pretty good condition. You won’t be ashamed if you drive it out.” Masayoshi Kishimoto calmly said.
Sakai Rie once again looked at Kishimoto Masayoshi who was sitting beside her and said, “You too, gave that Porsche 911 of yours to Meiling to drive, and what car are you driving out?”
“Drove your Ferrari.” Masayoshi Kishimoto chuckled.
“Used cars are fine, so give me my sister’s existing Ferrari. Anyway, she’s got a full-time driver who drives a Maybach.
Instead of letting the Ferrari sit idle, why don’t you give it to me to drive.” Sakai Meiling’s two black eyes rolled within their sockets as she hurriedly interjected.
Sakai Rie made an immediate decision, “You’re thinking really beautifully. However, I advise you to give up this unrealistic thought of yours before it’s too late.
Even if I don’t drive the Ferrari, I will still keep it in the garage. Not only can I look at it to please my eyes, but I also have some feelings. This is, after all, the first car in my life.”
“Brother Justice, didn’t you say that the first car in life starts from a used car? Why is my sister’s first car in her life not only a new car, but also a supercar?” Sakai Meiling said indignantly.
Sakai Rie refuted and replied, “Because he’s my husband. Even if he gives me a supercar, what’s wrong with that?”
“If I remember correctly, when Brother Justice gave you the Ferrari, you guys weren’t married yet.” Sakai Meiling argued.
“Then he’s also my fianc茅. Even if he gave me the supercar as a gift, there is absolutely nothing improper about it. I’ve already told you. If you want a car to drive, find a way to buy it yourself.
We won’t give you a car to drive. Of course, you can call up Shikoku Kochi and ask your parents. If either of them agrees to buy it for you, I won’t stop them.” Rie Sakai perked up.
Sakai Meiling’s eyes suddenly pecked with tears as she said pitifully, “Brother Justice, look at my sister! She’s bullying me again.”
“Sakai Meiling, don’t go too far and gain an inch. There is a limit to my patience. I won’t even bother with you after tens of millions of yen were squandered by you.
Let me remind you again that your tuition, living expenses, rent, etc. are all money lent to you, not money given to you.
In the future, when you graduate from college and work, this must be paid back in installments. We, the Kishimoto family, are not an ATM where you have to borrow without repaying.” Rie Sakai got serious and said.
“Isn’t it because you were born before me that you have such a head start?” Sakai Meiling said defiantly.
“This is also the arrangement of heaven. My destiny should be so and so good. If you’re not convinced, then go and argue with the heavens!” Sakai Rie said with a straight face.
“You ……,” Sakai Meiling said as she stood up expansively.
“What’s wrong with me? Don’t bring up that one loophole in the marriage contract again. Even if it really is our grandfather’s dying words that either of the Sakai family’s daughters can marry Masayoshi Kishimoto, it is no longer valid.
As of today, I am Masayoshi Kishimoto’s lawful wife. This one fact is something that no one can change.” Sakai Rie said with her head held high.
Sakai Mirei moved her feet towards the front door and ran out in tears. She was filled with the feeling that she was just too aggrieved.
