They were all very happy with this lunch. This was especially true for Jon and his wife. Jon initially had no objections to David, but after seeing that David was very capable, he was naturally very happy and then drank a few more glasses with David.
On the other hand, Mindy's original opinion of David disappears when she gets to know David. In addition to his background, David's appearance, temperament, speech, behavior, and knowledge were far better than the children or grandchildren of the wealthy families he knew.
If David was nurtured and nurtured, he would definitely be able to stand on his own and become an outstanding talent.
After eating, they sat in the living room and chatted.
“David, who else is in your family?” ask Mindy.
He now had absolutely no objection to the relationship between David and his daughter Celia, so he wanted to inquire about the situation of the David family.
It would be best if David had an older brother or a younger brother so his family wouldn't stop him from coming to the Capital to be their living daughter-in-law. However, if David is an only child, this may be a little tricky.
“Mistress Young, my parents died suddenly when I was ten years old. I've been living with Aunt Sally and Aunt Diana. To me, they are my family.” replied David.
'His parents are dead?'
Mindy and Jon looked at each other and they could see the shock in each other's eyes. David's parents have died, so there's nothing that's going to stop him from becoming Young's family's son-in-law. Also, they will be able to eliminate many problems in the future. This is definitely good news for both of them.
“Sorry has brought up something that makes you sad.” said Mindy.
“It's okay, Mrs Young. I was very young at the time and I had no idea what was going on. After all these years, I've long gotten used to it while my two aunts have also been very kind to me" David said indifferently.
His parents' impression is very hazy now. Even if he mentioned it now, he wouldn't feel too sad. After all, he was young back then, and it had been more than a decade since they died.
“David, since we are talking about this topic, let us be honest with you. We don't mind you dating Celia, but we have a request. After you get married, we hope you can stay with us in the Capital.” Mindy said.
“What?” David was confused.
‘Why did our topic suddenly become a wedding?’
To be honest, he didn't think about it at all. He hasn't graduated college.
“What do you mean by 'what'? You and Celia have been together since High School. He insisted on living in Shu City alone and not even following us when his father was transferred to work elsewhere in his final year of high school. You must have done everything a couple living together had to do, right? Have you not considered getting married?” Mindy was clearly dissatisfied with David's reaction, and she asked with a bit of sadness.
“Bu, what are you talking about?” celia said, her face flushed red.
“Celia, it's not your turn to speak.” said Mindy, glaring at Celia.
David suspects that Mindy must have misunderstood something. She and Celia have not officially started dating. What does he mean by, ‘You've done everything that a couple does? She clearly claimed that she was living with Celia but she did not want to take responsibility.'
However, she turned to look at Celia and found that the girl was also looking at her with a red face. There was also a pleading look in his eyes.
All right, he'll be the bad guy then. However, what about Celia going to school alone in Shu City in her final year of high school?
Didn't he go with his father when he was transferred?
Did he do that for her?
He doesn't know about this! One should know that after starting dating Sarah during her final year of high school, she slowly distanced herself from Celia.
It was because Sarah was extremely jealous and did not allow her to get too close to Celia. That's why he doesn't know much about Celia.
It looks like he was blind at the time. How could she fall in love with Sarah and ignore Celia?
He is not completely blind. He could only blame himself for having extremely low self-esteem back then.
“Eh... Actually.. Actually we have considered it, but we have not graduated from the university, so I feel it is too early to talk about this.” replied David.
“More early? You are in your third year and you will graduate in a year. After graduation, you can get married. When the time comes, both of you should join my company and I will train you for two years. Then, I will slowly hand over the company to you so that I can retire. Then, Celia can give birth to a child for me to take care of so that I can use the rest of my talents well.” Mindy said.
“Bu, what are you talking about?”
“I told you to shut up. Didn't I say exactly what you had in mind?”
David has seen the power of Celia's mother, a typical domineering businesswoman. He glanced at Jon who was used to it, then glanced at Celia again. The mother and daughter have very different personalities, and fortunately, Celia does not follow her mother.
Now, he didn't even have time to manage his own company that was worth hundreds of billions or even trillions of dollars, so how would he have time to manage another company?
Before David could reply, Mindy said again, “David, to be honest, we were initially against your relationship with Celia. Although our family was not rich, we managed to have some small achievements after Celia's father and I worked hard. Besides, we also learned a little about your family situation through Celia but we think you are not worthy enough for Celia."
David agreed with this. In the past, due to her low self-esteem, she felt that she was not worthy of Celia, so she chose to ignore Celia's kindness to her, and ended up choosing Sarah who was more similar to her.
Mindy continued, “We introduced Celia to the best man among the noble family's children, but Celia was not interested in them, so how else, she was only paying attention to you. We only have one daughter so we can't force her to marry someone she doesn't like and make her hate us forever, right? So, I hope that you will treat Celia well in the future and not let her suffer any grievances."
"I'll do it, Mrs Young.” David solemnly told Mindy.
Then they talked more after that. However, Mindy was the one who spoke the most while the other three listened.
Sometimes, David would be able to say something while Jon and Celia never managed to interrupt. It was almost time for David to leave.
“Mr and Mrs Young, sorry to bother you today. Thank you for your hospitality. I'll come visit you next time when I have time. See you again.” said David after standing up.
“Together, David. We will soon be a family. Celia, go get David out.” said Jon.
“Alright, Father.”
After Celia said that, she left with David.
After Celia and David left, Jon asked Mindy, “What do you think?”
“Not bad. He would be perfect if he had a better family background.” Mindy said.
“You're too domineering, and you like to compare too much, so that's why you're so tired. How your classmates and friends live their lives is their business. We have to live our own lives, why compare with them? I think David is very good. He perfectly fits with Celia.”
“You may be able to, but I can't. What would people live for, if not for their faces? I just can't stand people talking behind our backs. Besides, don't I agree they're together?”
“David can definitely do great things if you train it well. Trust my foresight. He may even surpass you when the time comes. You're the one who cultivated it, so you'll feel proud when that happens, right?”
“Alright, you don't have to say anything more. I know what to do. Since I've already agreed to the relationship of the two of them, I won't have any other thoughts."
Celia drives the car while David sits in the passenger seat.
“David, I'm sorry. I didn't know my mom would say it.” said Celia a little embarrassed.
“Celia, I should have apologized. Actually, I knew your intentions and I knew that when I was in high school, but at that time, I had very low self-esteem and I was very cowardly because of the environment I grew up in. So, I dare not face it and I also do not dare to accept it.”
“I don't care about that.” said Celia seriously.
“I know you don't, but I'm not like you. But, don't worry, I'm no longer the same person I used to be. I will face it bravely in the future.”
“Alright, I'll wait for you.”
Celia drives David to Greenwood University and David gets out of the car.
“Be careful on the roadm” says David on Celia.
“Oke, I get it. See you soon!” Celia drove her car away.
At this time, Hanley also received a call from Ezra. Ezra tells him that Celia has sent David to the entrance of Greenwood University and is now gone. Both should have no chance to do anything.
Hanley heaved a sigh of relief. If David did not leave Celia's house, he would really think of a reason to barge in.
'It looks like Celia has brought David to see his parents. But then why? Celia, when your mother's company and your father's future are in my hands, I want to see if they will still agree to let you stay with David. I'd like to see how you would choose then.'
David got into his car and left. While he was on his way, he received a call.
“David, install your earphones.” Leeman's serious voice could be heard from the phone.
“Oke, wait a minute.”
David quickly set up one earpiece. It was a special wireless encrypted earpiece from the Special Task Force. Usually, they would wear it when they were on a mission.
As he put on the earphones, he heard Leeman's voice again.
“David, we have an emergency now. Going to the eastern district immediately, I've sent you the exact location. His target was a middle-aged man in his forties and he was halfway to becoming a Dragon Ranker in the realm of martial arts. He currently has a hostage. Two units from Team B had already headed to the location, but they suffered serious injuries. You should hurry there quickly. If you can capture the target alive, do that, but if not, you have to kill him on the spot, but.
“Roger!”
David stepped on the gas pedal and the car drove to the target location.
This was his first mission and he had to do well.
The identities of the hostages were definitely not ordinary people as they were able to make Captain Leeman continue to emphasize the person's safety up to three times.
