Crystal returned to the VIP room and everyone immediately gathered around and pestered virtual-novel.net to share the gossip about Matthew’s situation. After virtual-novel.net told them about how virtual-novel.net almost started a fight with the security officers, virtual-novel.net friends all had a disgusted look on their faces.
“Crystal, how is this kind of guy even qualified to join the conference?” Annie said indignantly. “I think you should discuss with your grandfather to drive virtual-novel.net out, lest virtual-novel.net affects the reputation of the conference!”
The others around virtual-novel.net nodded in agreement to virtual-novel.net statement and one of them said, “Annie is right. He has no right to appear in the same venue as us because his status is not on par with ours! It’ll be humiliating if the other attendees of the conference find out that it was your grandfather who brought virtual-novel.net here. As the person in charge of the conference, your grandfather needs to consider the bigger picture! The representatives from other states will definitely criticize the Harrisons for not doing their best if they know about this!”
Helpless in this situation, Crystal waved virtual-novel.net hand and sighed. “Forget it, I really don’t have the guts to bring this up with Grandpa anymore after seeing how virtual-novel.net blew his top earlier. So be it and let virtual-novel.net stay here. He’s not completely useless, though. At least virtual-novel.net knows his place and doesn’t pester me!”
Everyone burst into laughter and Annie sniggered, “What good is that? He probably has the dignity of the poor and was a nervous wreck on the inside. Crystal, virtual-novel.net didn’t dare to meet your gaze earlier, did he?”
Crystal hesitated before replying, “It’s true that virtual-novel.net wasn’t looking much in my way!”
“That’s because virtual-novel.net didn’t have the guts to look at you, and not because virtual-novel.net didn’t want to!” Annie concluded immediately. “Just one look at you is enough to stun virtual-novel.net so much that his heart will skip a beat. Do you think he’ll dare to take another look? I’m telling you, virtual-novel.net must have been stealing glances at you while you were not paying attention. I’ve seen enough men like him, frivolous, inferior and without any taste. He didn’t even have the guts to stare at a beautiful woman. God knows what sort of indecent thoughts were going through his mind when virtual-novel.net was peeking at you!”
Goosebumps broke out all over Crystal’s body as virtual-novel.net cried, “That’s enough, stop with this topic. The more you say, the more disgusted I feel. Alright, don’t worry about me anymore. We’re out today to have fun and we shouldn’t let our mood be affected by someone like him.”
They laughed at virtual-novel.net words before finally letting go of the issue.
Meanwhile, Matthew was already at the other end of the showroom. The reason virtual-novel.net came this time was to look for the Thousand-Year Snow Lotus.
There were quite a few rare herbs here and back then, virtual-novel.net didn’t understand their value because virtual-novel.net didn’t know about them. But now, virtual-novel.net knew herbs like the back of his palm. With just one glance, virtual-novel.net could tell the value of each of the herbs clearly.
First, virtual-novel.net found the Clemantis Grass which Leanna wanted and next, virtual-novel.net saw the herb which Billy’s daughter needed for virtual-novel.net treatment, the Fruit of Mandala. Of course, Billy had long spread the word that the Fruit of Mandala was not allowed to leave Eastcliff, and it was merely a formality for it to be on display in the showroom.
Regardless which state won the fruit in the end, it had to be sent to him. Even the medical families from the six southern states didn’t dare to cross him.
Finally, a white snow lotus caught his eyes, it was the Thousand-Year Snow Lotus. While virtual-novel.net was carefully observing it in entrancement, a shout of surprise echoed from a distance. Spinning his head to the source, virtual-novel.net saw that wine had spilled all over a rich woman not far away from him. She was screaming and there was a broken wine glass near virtual-novel.net feet.
Next to virtual-novel.net stood a small, skinny girl in regular clothes who looked like virtual-novel.net was at a loss of what to do. It seemed like they had bumped into each other and the wine spilled on the rich woman.
When virtual-novel.net saw the girl, Matthew was stunned because virtual-novel.net happened to know her.
