Chapter 157
After listening to them for a while, David finally got a general idea of what was going on.
Judy was pregnant now, so they had to get married soon.
However, Uncle Alex wanted the newlywed couple to move in with them after they got married.
Judy’s future in-laws did not agree because of Aunt Diana’s poor family conditions, and they were
worried about the child’s future education.
This issue had been going on for almost a month and seeing how Judy’s unborn child was growing larger
day by day, the wedding could not be postponed.
However, there had not been a solution that both sides could agree to.
David realized that the heavens were on his side.
His biggest problem currently was how to persuade Aunt Diana and her family to move over to River City.
Especially when they had lived here for decades.
Had it not been for Jacey, Aunt Sally’s family might also be a hassle to persuade.
Now was the perfect time for him to suggest a solution.
Since Judy’s in-laws would not accept a second-handed house, then what about the first-handed house
h e owned in South River International Residence worth a hundred million dollars? They should have no
qualms accepting that.
If the in-laws were worried about education, the best school in South River Province was right beside
South River International Residence!
There was even a kindergarten.
There was nothing they could say to decline him.
David’s mood immediately brightened.
He ate happily during lunch.
Coupling his good mood with the fact that it had been a long time since he could eat Aunt Diana’s
cooking, David ate quite the sizable portion during lunch. Of course, enhancing his Body stats naturally
meant he had to eat more as well.

Jude’s family shook their head when they saw David eat.
They wondered how long David had been left starving and if he was here just for the food.
Everyone else did not eat much, though, since the issue of the couple’s residence had yet to be
resolved.
No one was in the mood to enjoy lunch.
Especially not Aunt Diana’s family. Everyone on their side seemed to be lacking an appetite, while Judy
did not eat a single bite at all.
After eating and clearing the table, everyone sat together to discuss the issue again.
However, they could not seem to agree no matter what.
David saw a chance and stood up to say, “I have an idea that I’m sure you’ll all agree to!”
Everyone looked at David and hope flashed through Judy’s eyes.
“What’s the idea?” Diana asked.
“Aunt Diana, you can all move to River City! Not only is the environment good there, but the education
level is great as well! Lots of room for further development as well,” David said.
Before Diana could say anything, Jude’s mother shouted first.
“Move to River City? How? Do you know how expensive a house costs in River City? They can’t even
afford a new house in the school area of Shu City and you want to move to River City? Have you gone
mad?”
Diana originally thought that David had some good idea, only to realize how unreliable it was once she
heard him.
They would not have to argue here if they could afford to move to River City.
The glimmer of hope in Judy’s eyes went out.
“Aunt Diana, I actually came here to discuss something with you! I was hoping you could move to River
City so I can show filial piety and repay the care you showed me all these years. I’ve already prepared a
place for you to move to in River City.”
David said seriously, but no one present believed him.
Diana and Alex thought David was bluffing, and they felt slightly embarrassed in front of their future in
laws.
Jude’s family looked at David with mockery.
“You’re David, right? You can’t just make a lie as unbelievable as that, okay? You’re telling us you can
buy a house in River City? And one to gift to your aunt Diana? You’re just a university student, how can
you afford a house in River City? You must’ve gone mad from school, huh?” Jude’s mom questioned
sarcastically.
“Exactly! Do you even know how expensive it is to buy a house in River City? You think you’re the only
one who wants to buy a house there? At least show a little shame for making such an unbelievable bluff!
Who knows how you got into your university? It must be some questionable university, huh!” Jude’s aunt
added.
“We’ll know later whether I’m bluffing or not. But if South River University, one of the top ten universities
in the country, is considered questionable, I’d like to know what you consider good,” David asked.
‘What?
‘South River University?’
As people who lived in South River Province, they were all well aware of SRU’s prestige.
They did not expect David to be a student of SRU.
No one in their huge family had managed to get into SRU before.
“So what if you study in SRU? Just because you study there doesn’t give you the right to bluff as you
wish!” Jude’s aunt rebutted.
“Think what you want, but if we find out that I do indeed have a house prepared for Aunt Diana and her
family, then you will agree to let Judy and her boyfriend stay with Aunt Diana after they get married. Plus,
their first child will take Judy’s surname! How’s that?” David replied.
“Sure! If you can find them a good house in River City, I’ll agree to your request!” Jude’s mom said.
Then she added after some thought, “But even if the house is in River City, it cannot be somewhere rural,
i t has to be close to a school! The house also can’t be smaller than two hundred square meters!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe naturally did not believe a university student like David had the financial ability to afford a house in
River City, let alone gift it to someone.
In the case that David decided to fool her with a house in the middle of nowhere, she added those
conditions as well.
“Sure! Did you drive here?” David asked.
“Of course! What era do you think it is now? To have a car is the standard, so of course we would have
one!”
“Great! Leave with me later, then!” David said.
Then, he turned to look at Diana and say, “Let’s go see the house in River City, Aunt Diana!”
“Dave!” Aunt Diana shouted.
“Trust me, Aunt Diana!” David looked at her and said sincerely.
Diana looked at him for a long while before she replied, “Alright.”
She trusted that David would not lie to her.
“Uncle Alex, Judy, come with us!” David turned to Alex and Judy to say.
Then, all of them walked downstairs, with Jude’s family following behind David and Aunt Diana’s.
They wanted to see how David planned to cover up this lie.
If Judy’s family was embarrassed, they would surely stop requesting Jude to stay with them after the
wedding.
However, Jude’s family was too stunned to move when they reached downstairs and saw David open the
doors to his Benz G-Class.
They were a considerably well-off family in Shu City, with a house and a car, but it was just a small car
worth a little more than a hundred thousand.
To drive a luxury car like a Benz was something they could only dream of.
Let alone this G-Wagon, one of the most luxurious models among all the Benz.
This was a powerful counter to their mocking remarks just now about how David must have been
bluffing. The Holtons flushed in embarrassment.
