Elizabeth took Benjamin to the largest Silver Seltzer Commercial Building in Eastern Sea City. Looking at the dazzling array of luxury jewelry shops, Benjamin couldn't help but be speechless. The labels on it showed that those things cost thousands or tens of thousands. It was not something ordinary people could afford.
Elizabeth Han took Benjamin into a shop and tried on a suit.
Looking at Benjamin’s reflection in the mirror, Elizabeth nodded slightly. Although Benjamin was thin, he still had a pretty good physique.
On weekdays, Benjamin always wore sportswear and looked like a student.
"Very good. This makes you more mature and not as childish as before!" Elizabeth Han was very satisfied.
Benjamin couldn't laugh or cry, "Sportswear is suitable for all ages. Why is it childish?"
"It is childish. Anyway, you should wear a suit more often. It’ll make you look mature and steady, and have a special temperament!"
Behaving like Benjamin's girlfriend, Elizabeth started planning to arrange daily outfits for Benjamin.
She fished a gold card from her bag, and said to the saleswoman, "Swipe the card. I'll get it all!"
"Okay!" A smile appeared on the saleswoman's face. This order cost nearly 14,000 dollars, increasing her commission.
However, the expression she looked at Benjamin was intriguing. How could this young man be kept by a rich woman at such a young age?
Fortunately, Benjamin hadn't learned the magical power to see through people's hearts, otherwise he might have choked on his spit.
Elizabeth then took Benjamin to buy two more suits before she started buying clothes for herself. Women's clothes had more variety than men's clothes. After a while, Benjamin almost ran out of energy.
"Miss, can you stop buying?"
Benjamin gestured to his hands which were full of shopping bags, "Stop using me as a free coolie. It's too tiring!"
Elizabeth's face flushed with embarrassment and she spat out her sweet tongue, "Okay, okay! But not before I buy two more sets of underwear!"
Benjamin breathed a sigh of relief. Shopping with women was really tiring.
Of course, his body has been remodeled by the Spiritual Arts of Depletion, making him far better than ordinary people. Yet, he was mentally tired now.
When they arrived at the under garment store, Benjamin was too embarrassed to go in. Fortunately, there was a row of rest chairs aside. Putting his things on the chairs, he sat down and started surfing the net.
Speaking of which, Elizabeth was really rich. This pile of things already costs more than 42,000 dollars. Ordinary people didn't know how long it takes to earn so much money. For Elizabeth, these were just her pocket money.
Benjamin was scrolling through his cell phone, and admiring the beauties coming and going, feeling very comfortable.
At this time, an enchanting woman was walking slowly over and was holding an arm of a richly dressed young master.
The woman was chatting and laughing with the young master when she suddenly saw Benjamin. She stopped and frowned slightly.
The young master next to her was stunned for a moment and asked quickly, "What's wrong? What happened?"
The woman smiled and pointed at Benjamin not far away, "Did you see that guy? His name is Benjamin Lin? He used to be my classmate!"
"Since he’s your classmate, you can go up and say hello!" The young master said.
"Tch!" The woman's expression was full of disdain, "Him? He’s just a poor guy."
Hearing this, the gaze the young master had on Benjamin changed to a somewhat dismissiveness expression.
At this time, Benjamin saw the woman and was stunned, too, "Victoria Tang?"
"It's me!" Victoria Tang walked over with a smile, and scanned Benjamin's ordinary sportswear, "Why are you here? There are all luxury jewelry stores here, and only rich people can afford them."
"I’m just shopping here!"
Benjamin did not expect his old classmates' first word was sarcasm after a ‘long time no see’.
Looking back, the two of them didn't have many interactions when they were in school, and Benjamin didn't know Victoria Tang very well.
At this time, the young master beside Victoria snorted coldly, "I hate some people that pretend to be rich when they obviously are not. If you can’t afford anything here, why bother hanging around here?"
Victoria showed a proud look on her face, "Benjamin, have you seen my boyfriend's outfit? This costs at least 7000 dollars! As for you, you might as well go to the underground mall to buy clothes, because they are cheap!"
Benjamin felt bad for a moment. These two people obviously made him a joke.
"Yes, I am only qualified for the underground mall. You are suitable here!" Benjamin said impatiently, "If there’s nothing more, then so be it!"
Benjamin was no longer willing to talk to Victoria and her companion anymore.
But Victoria refused, "Look at you! I said just a few words for your own good, and you are still angry. Oh, you are really boring!"
Benjamin said coldly, "For my own good? You obviously just wanted to ridicule me! You are really hypocritical! Don’t forget that you are also a child from a poor family, and you manage to find a rich man to fall in love with. Yet, does becoming a member of the upper class give you the right to make fun of me? Can you tell me what to do? Haha, if he abandons you one day, you will fall from the clouds and be unrecognizable!"
"You..." Victoria Tang's delicate body trembled with anger. She didn't expect Benjamin to say such ugly words.
At this time, the young master stood up, stood in front of Victoria Tang, and said coldly, "Now, please apologize to my girlfriend immediately, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"
Benjamin looked at the young master in front of him, "Who are you?"
The young master looked proud, "I am from the Collins family. Do you know the Collins Family? The Eastfield Trading Group belongs to my family!"
"Oh!" Benjamin suddenly realized, "Eastfield Trading Group has a market value of more than one billion, and the Collins Family can be considered a second-rate Family in Eastern Sea City."
There was a proud smile on the young master's face, "Boy, that makes things easier since you know me. Now, kneel down now and apologize to my girlfriend, otherwise, haha, don't blame me for being rude, I will let you die without mercy!”
Victoria Tang's face went cold, "Benjamin, I took the initiative to say hello to you because we are classmates, but I didn't expect you to be so disrespectful. In this case, don't blame me for not giving you a face today. You must kneel down!"
Benjamin looked at the two people and said disdainfully, "You alone want me to kneel down? What a dream!"
"Rampant!" Young Master was furious, "Boy, are you seeking death?"
Benjamin said coldly, "Not only do I not know how to kneel down, but you two have to kneel down for me today, otherwise this matter will not be over!"
"You..." Victoria Tang's face was ashen, and she was extremely angry.
The young master laughed out of anger. He then pointed at Benjamin's nose and cursed, "You have such a cocky mouth! I want to see how you made me kneel down today !"
"What's wrong? What happened?"
Suddenly there was a tinkling voice, and a beautiful figure walked out of the under garment store. She was holding the underwear she had just bought, and she saw Benjamin and the other two people arguing about something with their faces blue and necks red. She then immediately asked.
