I'm A Quadrillionaire

Chapter 298
Celia drove David out of campus and into a quiet villa garden 20 minutes later. The car gradually slowed down, so it meant that they were approaching their destination.
“David, d-don’t be nervous. My parents are actually very nice,” Celia said to David while
driving.
David was a little amused. This girl was obviously the nervous one, but in turn, she pretended that he was nervous.
“I’m fine, I’m not nervous,” David replied with a smile.
Why should he be nervous? Wasn’t this just dinner? He was not going to meet his mother-in law.
Hmm?
Mother-in-law?
David turned his head to see Celia’s pretty red face. Even her hand that was holding the steering wheel was shaking.
‘Did this girl tell her parents that I’m her boyfriend?
“Judging from the way she’s behaving, it’s very possible.’
“Um… Celia… Did you tell your parents that I’m your boyfriend?” David asked.
“Ah! H-how did you know?” Celia said nervously.
“You really said that? Didn’t I say to wait for a bit?” David said with a bitter smile.
“B-But my mom insisted on finding a boyfriend for me so I… I could only say that I already had one,” Celia whispered.
The two fell into a brief silence.
“David, you’re not mad, are you?” Celia asked cautiously.
“No, I’m just thinking whether it’s inappropriate to go empty-handed since this is the first time I’m seeing my mother-in-law. Celia, you should have told me in advance, so that I could be prepared.”
“No need for that. We don’t lack anything in our house. You just need to show up,” Celia said quickly.
Sigh.

David sighed.
This girl was so sheltered that she did not know the ways of the world.
‘Do you think the things at your house are the same as the things I’ll be bringing?’
However, since they were already here, he would just go ahead with it.
Soon, Celia drove the car into a garage next to a villa.
After they got out of the car, they walked to the villa together.
Inside the villa
Jon and Mindy were informed in advance that David was coming over today.
Thus, they were both at home and they already asked the housekeeper at their house to prepare an entire table of delicious food.
Even though Mindy was convinced by Jon and was ready to make David her live-in son-in law, when she thought about the talented daughter whom she raised with so much blood, sweat, and tears being taken away by a poor kid from the countryside, she felt very uncomfortable.
However, David did save her daughter so she should at least show some etiquette where necessary.
“Mom, Dad, I’m back!” Celia called out the moment she stepped through the door.
Jon and Mindy turned their heads to look over and they spotted their daughter with a young man walking over from outside.
When they saw David, their eyes lit up.
This boy was not bad!
He looked energetic and he was pretty good-looking too.
He did not look like someone from the countryside at all.
Mindy recalled all the children or grandchildren of the rich people she knew and found that none of them could compare to David if she disregarded their family backgrounds.
Was he really someone from a small county town?
David also walked in and greeted, “Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Young.”
“Hello, you must be David,” Jon asked.
“Mr. Young, I’m David. I came here in a hurry today. I came directly from campus, so I didn’t have time to buy gifts. Please don’t blame me for this, I will make up for it next time.”
“You don’t need to! There’s no shortage of everything at home. Plus, you’re a student, so why
spend so much money? Come, let’s go eat. We’ve been waiting for you,” Mindy said.
The four of them went to the dining room to sit down to eat.
Celia looked nervous.
However, on the other hand, David was fine. He was a person who had seen all aspects of society and there were probably not many things that could make him nervous anymore.
“David, can you drink? Why don’t you have a drink with me?” Jon asked.
“A drink should be fine,” David replied.
“Celia, go get my bottle of liquor,” Jon said to Celia.
“Okay.”
Celia went to get the liquor, opened it, and poured Jon and David a glass each.
“David, come, I want to propose a toast to you. I want to thank you for saving Celia back then. Otherwise, my wife and I wouldn’t know how to live the rest of our lives,” Jon said to David while lifting his glass.
“Mr. Young, you’re being so courteous to me. This is what I should have done. If I wasn’t around, Celia would have been rescued by others too.”
The two chatted while drinking leisurely.
After three rounds of drinks, Mindy said something when she figured it was time.
