"Adding seats on the spot, is this allowed?"
Daisy looked calm and composed, "I don’t recall our auction seminar allowing for last-minute additions!"
Coincidentally, with two more seats added, Daisy and Julian would be bumped to the back. The people in the back didn’t care much, as only the front 10 rows were prominent; the rest were all the sa.
However, hearing Daisy’s protest, many others echoed her sentint.
"I’ve never heard of such a thing."
"Yeah, strange, how can people be added last minute?"
...
"Daisy, aren’t those two Huaxia people with you?"
Julian glanced at the na tags on the seats, which read Chu Beining and Ji Changqing.
Though she wasn’t certain, the late additions being two Huaxia people... it seed very likely.
"Huaxia people?"
Huaxia hadn’t added newcors for several years, although the head of the International Agricultural Research Institute and so key mbers were Huaxia people.
Most people thought there was little talent from Huaxia, so when they heard about Huaxia attendees, everyone pricked up their ears to listen.
"Surely, our auction seminar hasn’t degraded to being influenced by money!"
"Julian, don’t make baseless comnts."
Daisy pulled her aside, "Excuse , we need a reasonable explanation, otherwise I will file a protest."
They worked together—Julian with sarcastic remarks, and Daisy seemingly reasonable. The staff was left with no choice. If Julian were simply unreasonable, they could take asures, but now they had soone insisting on reason.
"Need an explanation? Here it is."
At that mont, Chu Beining and Ji Changqing walked over, accompanied by a tall foreign man, and there was an imdiate hush among the crowd.
The man wasn’t just anyone; he was one of the mbers of the International Agricultural Research Institute and the key figure of the KM Auction, Darren!
He really was an eccentric person; despite his powerful family background, he loved tinkering with agricultural products!
Moreover, he was gifted and remarkably competent!
He was soone unreachable for everyone present.
"Mr. Darren!"
"Mr. Darren, the way you suggested increasing yield last ti was truly incredible!"
...
Everyone rushed up to curry favor.
They all wanted to show their faces in front of Darren.
Daisy, of course, recognized Darren, and seeing him, she was visibly stunned.
Hearing the crowd calling out, she finally snapped back to reality.
"Mr. Darren, this is..."
"Miss, here’s the reasonable evidence you asked for. These two young talents have their papers published internationally, with significant recognition and high esteem. They’re actually special guests of our auction, but they humbly chose to follow our rules and participate in the seminar."
"So capable at such a young age, surpassing their predecessors!"
"Indeed, and so humble!"
... As soon as Darren spoke, everyone sided with him.
Daisy was reluctant, but after seeing the papers in her hand, she was feeling overwheld. She had heard her teachers praise these papers, but hadn’t had a chance to read them yet.
"Julian, let’s move."
Daisy nodded slightly at them, clenched her fists, and left the 10th row.
They were in the 10th row, but what about Chi Youyou?
With that thought, she glanced around until her eyes settled by the small door on the left, seeing Chi Youyou walking toward the front row, smiling and chatting happily with two people.
That can’t be true!
