Chapter 98 Housewarming
"We should." Noah said, "Housewarming is a joyous occasion. Naturally, we should invite our relatives and classmates over to celebrate."
Lisa asked, "When should we invite them over?"
"Tomorrow. We’ll tell everyone the news tonight, and we’ll arrange for a bus to pick up our relatives and classmates tomorrow," Noah said after thinking for a moment.
"Okay." Lisa nodded.
After returning home, Lisa immediately made phone calls and sent out messages.
...
"What? A housewarming?" Evelyn looked at the message and was slightly stunned, "Could it be the new house that Noah bought? Why would they want to celebrate getting a run-down house...? Oh well, since Lisa was my classmate, I'll take the bus there tomorrow for her sake."
After replying to the message, Evelyn continued to watch short videos of Rolls-Royce owners, her heart pounding like a deer.
...
"Nonsense, this is just nonsense!"
Daniel hung up the phone with Lisa and blew his beard in anger, glaring, "That useless Noah bought a crappy house but wants to have a housewarming party. He even invited all the relatives. He's not afraid of embarrassing himself, but I am!
"How did I end up with such a useless son-in-law? Sigh!
"Noah, if only you had one-tenth of Larry's qualities!"
...
Larry's house.
"Hahaha! Honey, I can't take it anymore, I'm going to laugh myself to death!" Sarah covered her stomach, laughing hysterically, tears almost streaming down her face.
"That useless guy wants to have a housewarming party. He’s saying he'll arrange a bus to pick us up and go for drinks. It's just a second-hand house, but he’s actually taking it seriously! Hahaha!"
"Since he invited us, let's just go. After all, we won't be the ones who’ll be embarrassed. I’ll be happy to see Noah embarrassed!" Larry chuckled.
...
A villa.
Noah’s mother-in-law Zoe answered the phone call from Lisa with a cold smile. "Of course we'll go! Didn't I say that in the car the other day when I was telling you about the housewarming? I'll definitely go!
"When the time comes, I'll invite your uncle, second uncle, third uncle, Mike, Alex, and all those relatives from the village. Noah likes to embarrass himself, right? Well, I'll make sure he does! The lousy house will embarrass him completely! He'll become a laughingstock in front of all his relatives! He'll never be able to hold his head up!
"After that useless guy is embarrassed, I'll make him divorce you!"
...
In the Royal Hospital, Michael lay on the hospital bed, his chest wrapped in bandages.
He still hadn't fully recovered from the injuries Noah had inflicted on him.
"What? Noah bought a house and is having a housewarming party tomorrow?"
Michael looked at the message and burst into laughter. "I really want to see what kind of house that useless guy Noah can buy!
"As for the gifts, I'm more than willing to hand them over. I'm just afraid that he's bought a dangerous house and the building will collapse as soon as I get there, putting my life at risk... Hahaha!"
...
The next morning, the sun was shining brightly, and the sky was clear.
Noah checked the almanac and saw that it was an auspicious day for weddings, blessings, opening ceremonies, moving in, and housewarming parties.
A luxury bus emerged from Summit Retreat Oasis and entered the bustling city.
Daniel, Zoe, Larry, Sarah, Evelyn, and the others had all arrived at the designated location.
They all boarded the bus when it arrived.
Before long, the bus was filled with people and started moving.
"That Noah is really willing to suffer because of his pride! He’s so proud even though he just bought a second-hand house, even inviting us for a banquet!"
Noah's uncle, Jake, crossed his legs and looked down on him, saying, "Our whole family is going this time. Let's see how he’ll embarrasses himself!
"Last time, my son lost his secure job as a government employee, but I haven't held him accountable for that yet!"
"Ah, Lisa, I can't believe you married such a useless person who only brings shame to the family. Seriously, I feel sorry for Lisa," Mike looked at Daniel.
"Uncle, when will you divorce Noah, that pathetic loser, from Aunt Lisa?"
"Soon, soon! I've been running around the blind date market these days!"
Daniel forced a smile, wishing he could find a hole to hide in.
Everyone here was one big family.
'This Noah is not only embarrassing himself, but now even I, his father-in-law, am embarrassed in front of relatives!
'I’m truly unlucky. How did I end up with such a son-in-law?'
Zoe also had a cold expression on her face. "Daniel, you must have really lost your mind to let Lisa marry Noah! Look at how everyone in our family views that pathetic loser! Seriously, it's so shameful!"
"Do you think I wanted Lisa to marry that pathetic loser Noah? Besides, Noah didn’t do too bad during the wedding. He was polite to me and poured me a drink. I didn’t know he was a good-for-nothing who was just waiting to die!"
Daniel became infuriated and argued with Zoe.
"Please stop arguing," Larry stepped in to resolve the conflict. "Once we're done with this housewarming party, we'll have Lisa divorce Noah. It will be alright. It's embarrassing to fight with the whole family watching."
Daniel nodded and coldly said, "You're right. Once this housewarming party is over, I’ll make Noah and Lisa get a divorce! If Lisa doesn't agree, I’ll force her to do it!"
Evelyn, Michael, and others were sitting in the back of the bus.
Evelyn smiled coldly. "Heh, Noah is not only a loser in my eyes, it turns out he's a loser even in his own family!
"Divorcing Lisa is the wisest choice!"
"That's right! Although I don't like Lisa anymore, she was my college goddess. Her marrying Noah is like throwing pearls to swine." Michael also laughed and said, "I'm really looking forward to seeing how much Noah embarrasses himself today."
...
The bus continued on, and after a while, it took a turn and arrived at the Golden Summit Peak road.
Daniel paused for a moment and immediately said, "Driver, did you take a wrong turn? This road leads to Golden Summit Peak!"
Everyone realized and said in unison, "Yes, we're on the wrong road!"
"Turn around quickly, Golden Summit Peak is a private villa, and if we trespass, we will be thrown out!"
"Turn around quickly, otherwise we'll be kicked out and it would be embarrassing!"
"Did we make a wrong turn?" The driver's eyes flickered as he asked, "Are you the relatives and friends of Noah?"
"Noah?" Zoe rolled her eyes. "He's just a loser, call him that. I'm his mother-in-law, temporarily of course, but I definitely won’t be in the future!"
"So you are Noah's family and friends."
The driver nodded, didn't say anything more, and continued driving.
"Oh, why is he still going uphill?" Daniel frowned.
"Does that driver have a hearing problem?" Zoe was also displeased. "If we get kicked out, we’ll be so embarrassed!"
"Maybe it's difficult to turn around on the mountain road, so the driver wants to turn around up ahead," Larry said with a smile.
Daniel and Zoe nodded. That was probably it.
