Chapter 1082:1082 Stubborn

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“This is Mr. Smith from Simo Company in Country D.” Mayor Guo introduced Ed to Shang Jin.

His original intention was to introduce Tan Rou to Ed, but now that Tan Rou was not here, he introduced Shang Jin and the others to Ed Smith. He wanted to let both sides communicate and see they could get anything out of Ed.

Shang Jin had already heard Ed belittle their research, so she didn’t have a good impression of him. However, Mayor Guo was the one who brought this man over and she couldn’t make things difficult for Mayor Guo.

In the spirit of a host, Shang Jin took the initiative to extend her hand and greet him but Ed only glanced at Shang Jin and did not shake her hand.

Shang Jin stood there awkwardly. She repeated, “Mr. Smith, nice to meet you.”

However, Ed still did not move.

Shang Jin was not a good-tempered person. When she saw that Ed did not move, she put her hand back into her pocket and said coldly, “People in many countries say that the D people are arrogant. I didn’t believe it at first. I thought those were just rumors. Now that I see Mr. Smith, I know that those words are true.”

Ed naturally understood what Shang Jin meant. His expression changed instantly. “People in our country never shake hands and greet each other.”

“When in Rome, do as the locals do. Although your country doesn’t use handshakes, our country does!” Shang Jin didn’t back down.

“Since you’re in our country, you should follow our country’s culture. This isn’t your country. If you cause trouble here, don’t blame us for being rude to you.”

Ed had never been treated like this before, even the royal family of Country M was polite to him. He did not expect that someone from this lowly country would dare to speak to him like this. It was infuriating!

“Mr. Mayor, is this how you treat your guests?” Ed could not refute Shang Jin’s words, so he could only go to the mayor and cause trouble.

“Her attitude is too bad. I want to sue her!”

Mayor Guo wanted to laugh. As a mayor, he naturally had to make sure to maintain good relationships with other countries. There were things that he would like to say but he couldn’t because of his position. He was about to get high blood pressure from this arrogant Ed, but after hearing Shang Jin’s words, he felt much better.

“Mr. Smith, Miss Shang Jin is still young. It’s her first time attending such an event. She doesn’t know a lot of things and doesn’t know you. If she offended you in anyway, I hope you won’t hold it against her.” Mayor Guo looked at Ed with a half-smile. “Are you going to argue with a little girl?”

Shang Jin wanted to say that she wasn’t a little girl, but for Mayor Guo’s sake, she didn’t refute him.

Ed looked Shang Jin up and down and said mockingly, “She is indeed a young girl but when I was her age, I already had five patents. I wonder how many patents this little girl has?”

Shang Jin only had one patent with her, so there was no way she could compete with Eddy. However, this did not mean that she would just keep quiet. “Some people have already become the president of a country at Mr. Smith’s age. Why hasn’t Mr. Smith become the president yet?”

Ed was usually praised by others, but when he suddenly heard Shang Jin mocking him like this, he was very unhappy. “Even if I’m not the president, I’m still better than you. I wonder what works this Miss Shang Jin has brought to the exchange today. Can we see them?”

Shang Jin raised his eyebrows and gave up the machine behind him. “I only brought a small gadget. If Mr. Smith is interested, you can go along and give it a try.”

Ed glanced at the chair. “A massage chair?”

Shang Jin didn’t introduce the Muscle Relaxation chair to Ed enthusiastically. “Yes, it’s a massage chair. If you want to try it, sit on it. If you don’t want to try it, just walk away. There are others who want to try it.”

Ed was also tired from walking. “Alright, I’ll give it a try. It just so happens that walking is too tiring. If it were in my country, our exhibition hall would be equipped with automatic sightseeing cars that can easily reach any corner of the exhibition hall.”

Shang Jin rolled his eyes. She didn’t have a good impression of this blonde foreigner. If it weren’t for the fear of causing diplomatic problems, she would have kicked this foreigner out of their exhibition hall.
