Even if there was initially anyone who would want to defend Eric before, now there was none. Who would ever think of defending a stupid country-bumpkin that was trying to bite more than he could chew?

At the same time, the young woman who had started the conflict with him got more courage and heart upon hearing that, as she felt like she was the winner of the fight before it ended.

As for Eric, he just stood there unperturbed by all the changes in the surroundings or the changes in other people's expressions.

It looked like even if Earth stopped revolving around the sun and itself he wouldn't be disturbed or worried. After all, it was something out of his reach.

"You damn country-bumpkin who doesn't know his place! How dare you touch Miss Wei like that, are you tired of living or something!?"

And of course, whenever and wherever there was a damsel in distress there would be a stupid man who would take this chance to pretend like he was the knight in shining armor.

"What did I do exactly!?"

"You dropped Miss Wei on the ground, without caring about her wellbeing!"

"Wasn't she the one asking for it!?"

"Shameless bastard, she only asked you like that because you were taking advantage of her!"

"Are you saying that I shouldn't have touched her at all!?"

"Yes, that is what I am saying, you damn bastard!"

"Then wouldn't she have ended up in a much worse position than she is right now!? She might have even fallen to the ground headfirst and cracked her head or injured her pretty face.

Are you saying that you would better wish for Miss Wei to end up dead or disfigured than have me help her!?"

"Ughh~! This…."

"Come on tell us Mr. Knight what is more important, a moment of misunderstanding, or someone else's life!? Especially the life of the woman for whom you are barking like a dog!"

"Youuuu…"

"You, me, what!? Are you saying that you want to fight with me now!? An honored and dignified gardener like yourself who understands the beauty and character of flowers would actually choose such a barbaric way to fight!?

You truly disappoint me, Mr. Knight! I can't imagine how your Miss Wei must feel after seeing this poor performance from you!"

It wasn't only the guy that tried to play the knight in shining armor, but the whole crowd, including Miss Wei who were shocked and startled by Eric's performance.

Just what kind of country-bumpkin was he!? He was able to shut them all up without even lifting his voice, as he just calmly argued and set them up.

The poor knight was the most shocked person of all, as he couldn't believe and accept that he was done for by nothing else but a country bumpkin.

"Now you tell me, Miss Wei, what would you like to witness yourself, would you like to have fallen and suffered grave injuries and complain about my misbehavior, or have it as it happened!?"

"I…, I…"

"Well, you don't have to say anything! I think that the whole crowd understood your answer!"

With that said, Eric returned to the line and closed his eyes once again, while the crowd looked at him with different complex gazes.

"What is going on here!? Why is there such a commotion!?"

Just as the crowd had yet to digest what just happened, the security guards of the mansion came forward and questioned the crowd.

No one was talking for a moment, before a stealthy old man appeared and told everything to the guards, who looked at Eric and that Miss Wei with cold and scary gazes.

Miss Wei couldn't help but shiver a bit, while Eric just opened his eyes and looked back without much emotion.

One of the guards didn't like Eric's expression and reaction, so he immediately decided to make a move as he said,

"You two are disqualified, go home! The Long Family Mansion doesn't need rotten apples that don't know what's good for them!"

As he heard those words, Eric just opened his eyes without much interest as he said in a calm and collected voice,

"Don't you think you are overstepping your boundaries a bit bro! You are just a guard, not the employment officer! I don't think you can fire me that easily!"

His words made the guard even more infuriated with him, as he started screaming in a menacing tone,

"You damn rotten country-bumpkin, how dare you act like a pretentious di*ck in front of me! If this father tells you to go, then you go! understand!?

Otherwise, even if the Jade Emperor comes down here, they won't be able to change this father's decision!"

"Oh, is that so!? Do you think that you can hold responsible for the loss of Madam Long's 'blood rose'!?"

"Hahaaahh~! Do you think that you can recover that flower and take care of it!? A country bumpkin like you can!?"

"Wouldn't we find out if we just try it!? How about we make a bet on it!?"

"Hahahahah~! Uaahahahahah~! This is the greatest joke I have ever heard! What bet do you want to make!?

Is there anything precious on you that can substitute the Madam's 'blood rose'!? Aren't you just trying to make trouble in this place!? Just get the fu*ck out before I throw you outside!"

"I will offer you a 'blood rose' cutting, and my family heirloom a small pendant made of Emperor Jade!"

The whole crowd was stupefied, none of them expected Eric to have the balls to propose such a bet, and even less possess those great objects.

With those thoughts in their minds, they looked at Eric with a bit of doubt and suspicion, as Eric pulled the 'blood rose' cutting and the small pendant from his pocket.

Everyone in the crowd could only take a deep breath, as they looked at Eric with weird and complex expressions.

As for the guard, he was looking at Eric's stuff just like a hungry wolf, or hyena, that would jump at any moment to rob them away.

As if reading through his mind, Eric said in a calm and cool voice,

"I would suggest against saying that I stole these from you, as the 'blood rose' cutting I took out has a different age and variation from the 'blood rose' in your Madam's garden.

As for the pendant, I have pictures of evidence of my grandparents having it!

Now, forgetting about all that, do you have the balls to bet with me or not!?"

Even Miss Wei at the side couldn't help but look at Eric with a look of surprise and interest, as this country bumpkin turned out to be quite the dashing guy.

p The guard seemed to think deeply for a few moments, but remember the state that the 'blood rose' was now, he didn't think he would lose as he said,

"Hehehhe~! Who is afraid of you!? How dare you claim that you can easily recover and take care of that precious flower!

Come with me, let us witness your Godly skills!"

Of course, that last line was said with heavy irony and displeasure, as he clearly didn't like Eric in the least.

The crowd could only look as the guard took Eric towards the garden, while the beauty that had thrown herself at Eric earlier, walked forward and said,

"Mr. Zuo please wait a moment, I am Wei Qingping the daughter of Wei Sha the vice deputy of the Environment Bureau! I remember you from your last visit to my father!

This time, my father specially sent me here to have a look at Madam Long's 'blood rose' and try my best to help out, but I was stuck in the crowd!

Can you take me with you as well!"

The guard took a good look at the young woman in front of him, before seeming in a dilemma about what to do, as he finally said,

"Come with me, I would love to have another glass of your father's fine wine!"

While he said that, his gaze upon Wei QingPing was a bit weird, he looked like he wanted to devour her.

The young woman clearly felt his gaze, but instead of being disgusted and displeased with it, she acted coquettishly as she said,

"But of course, I will make sure to pass your word to my father! Hehehe~!"

Eric witnessed all this without much of an expression on his face. He wasn't a little kid and clearly understood how the world worked.

Whether it was a big leader, or just a security guard, the moment that they had some power they would surely make use of it.

Furthermore, he had already decided to make this guard suffer lately, and this beauty just gave him a good idea!

With those thoughts in mind, they finally arrived at the garden where the 'blood rose' was found, as the guard walked forward and spoke some words in the ear of the examiner.

That guy's face went dark and gloomy at first, as he then took a good look at Wei QingPing, and finally seemed to have agreed with the guard's request.

No matter what, this whole mess would be over once the 'blood rose' was totally destroyed, and since Eric was there to mess around, he could take the blame for the matter all the same.

The gardeners in line were clearly displeased with the situation, but they didn't dare to take a word more for fear that they angered the examiner.

At this time the guard looked at Eric full of mockery as he said,

"Well, then country-bumpkin go ahead!"

While Eric had a complicated expression on his face…
