[332 – Another method of classification]
The business smile on Lin Jie’s face gradually disappeared, and he retracted his outstretched hand.
Although to tell the truth, he was not angry because of the contemptuous attitude and expression of the other party. He had met too many such people, no matter whether it was before or after the time-travel, there were countless.
If he had to get angry every time he met someone, he would probably be a puffer fish by now.
But not being angry doesn’t mean that you have to get used to the other person and do it yourself like the Buddha.
Responding to a handshake should be regarded as the most basic courtesy, and even this does not want to do any superficial work. It can be seen that this Mr. John did not want to save face for both parties.
In this case, no matter how good-tempered Lin Jie is, he doesn’t intend to continue to maintain a friendly businessman who makes money from anger.
Lin Jie sighed, spread out his hands, and said calmly: “I’m just an unknown bookstore owner, and my name is not worth mentioning. In terms of identity, it is indeed very different from everyone here.”
Ji Zhixu hesitated when introducing him, probably because of this factor. When he has not disclosed the cooperation between him and Luoer Resources, to directly reveal such a bland identity may lead to more obvious malice. And sarcasm… it’s really hard for her.
However, Miss Ji seems to have underestimated the determination of the guy in front of her to be provocative… If you change it to someone who is more interesting, or to put it another way, someone who is more cowardly, if Ji Zhixu deliberately does not mention it, she should be wise. Choose to give up the questioning, because this obviously has a high probability of offending Ji Zhixu.
Therefore, to say such unhindered and rude remarks on this occasion, either this person is a real fool, or he is fearless and feels that even if he says so, it will be fine.
Although Lin Jie subjectively thinks it is the first possibility, objectively speaking, it is the second possibility. Remember https://m. xswang.com
Especially… this guy’s eyes couldn’t hide his condescension.
It wasn’t just for Lin Jie, but even Ji Zhixu was included.
That is to say… This guy has the confidence and thinks that he has more status than the eldest Miss Ji family of Luoer Resources?
According to common sense, this is simply impossible. Luoer Resources is already a giant monopoly at the top of Nuojin. Everyone in this banquet can clearly recognize the weight of this behemoth, and there are no other forces at all. To be able to compare with it… Even in the Central District, apart from political factors, the attitude towards Rolle Resources also needs to be considered.
But… what if we use extraordinary reason to speculate?
Lin Jie narrowed his eyes and said slowly: “The two sides of the introduction should indeed be given equality, but it may be better to show respect for the other party by letting me introduce myself. This is not a big deal, but I’m afraid… You who make a big fuss, didn’t come here with the will of equal communication from the beginning?”
John shifted his gaze from Ji Zhixu to Lin Jie, raised his chin slightly, and said without a smile, “This is not a trivial matter… a commoner.”
It means that you cannot understand the importance of the status gap between the two sides in the case of unequal status?
This is arrogant enough.
But John obviously thinks that such arrogance is not enough… He is burning with rational jealousy in his heart – yes, jealousy, John never hides his possessiveness towards Ji Zhixu, in his opinion, he is definitely with Rolle. One of the strongest contenders for resource marriage.
Until Ji Zhixu invited this unknown person to dance the first dance at her twentieth birthday party.
As a nobleman, and even more as an extraordinary, as a young wizard with extraordinary talent, John felt humiliated!
And now, this jealousy is telling him that he must let this commoner who thinks he has climbed the high branch deeply understand what his identity is.
“Of course, I’m not talking about you, Mr. Nameless.”
John pretended to spread his hands helplessly, with a distressed look: “I still understand the thoughts of those civilians quite a bit. For them, they may feel that they really don’t need to distinguish between high and low identities, after all, they are always pursuing The so-called equality and freedom, I think the nobles are some idiots who only enjoy it, but…”
He gestured around: “Look, this is the closest place to the Central District of Nuojin, the center of District A, look at these priceless decorations, and they? Live in the number street where you can’t get a letter at all. , even if it is not in the stinking ditch in urban planning, how can there be equality in this world.”
“With all due respect, every decoration here is enough to buy hundreds of low-level slaves. Haha, why not guess where these slaves come from?”
“…Don’t look at me like that, oh, you probably don’t know that for those with noble status, buying and selling slaves is still legal. This is something that the Central District recognizes. Of course, as a noble noble, We will never do anything more than reasonable to ask these slaves.”
“I just wanted to say, do you understand what these numbers mean? It separates two kinds of people—not commoners or nobles.”
“Just like distinguishing the fine use of various tableware at the table, they don’t need to understand these etiquettes. After all, they will never see tableware other than chopsticks, spoons and forks in their lives, and they will even hold them with their hands. Food eating, oh my god, what a disgusting dirty and inferior act!”
John’s eyes were full of irony, but on the surface he looked polite, as if he was really just talking about some noble etiquette: “But you must know that these etiquettes are signs of civilization.”
“And the so-called civilization is the difference between humans and animals… or, in other words, the difference between humans and livestock.”
The change of expression on Ji Zhixu’s face can no longer be simply described in words.
Her face had already darkened, and it was very ugly. When John opened his mouth, he was going to give the guy in front of him, who didn’t even know who he was talking to, an unforgettable lesson in her life, but she opened her mouth to speak, but was caught by Lin Jie. He raised his hand slightly to stop it.
She turned her head and saw Lin Jie’s calm eyes looking directly at John.
“…”
Although those eyes were calm enough to be called peaceful, Ji Zhixu shivered unconsciously.
Because she suddenly realized at this moment… In those dark eyes as always, since they left the dim light of the bookstore all the year round, it seems that there is no longer any light, and there is only a bottomless secluded distance left. dark.
The hall was brightly lit, and the scenes were staggered, but those lively and bright scenes could not be reflected by these eyes.
“Actually, I think what you said is quite reasonable.”
Lin Jie put on a bright smile again: “But since we are in this banquet, everyone is just Miss Ji’s guests, but if you have to compete…”
The owner of the bookstore looked at John, smiled and whispered: “I think there is another way to classify between me and you.”
