Chapter 967


    For a moment, everyone became sympathetic, and they turned their eyes to Fade.


    Although they were silent, Fade still understood what their gazes meant.


    It was as if they were saying, "Fade, you are a young man. How shameless you are topete with


    Master Pai. After all, Master Pai needs the herb to cure his son."


    Some soft- hearted women stared at Fade with bright eyes, as if they would not give up until he sold


    the Dragon Root to Otto.


    In such a situation, Fade frowned.


    It was not that he didn''t want to help Otto, but the attitude of those people was really too much.


    It was due to the fact that Otto was a kind person, and he helped them a lot in the past. Therefore,


    right then, as Otto was in trouble, they had to help Otto to return the favor. Those kinds of people


    who tried to take advantage of other people disgusted Fade.


    In addition, there was not much Dragon Root to spare. Moreover, Fade was going to use it on his


    wife, Quin. Therefore, Fade wouldn''t even be willing to sell a quarter of it to Otto.


    Fade''s hesitant expression made those people even more indignant at that moment. One by one,


    they stared at Fade furiously.


    Calvin was so happy when he saw that Fade was reluctant to sell a small part of the Dragon Root to


    Otto. He began to satirize him, "President Chen you are such a calm person. You can still manage


    to control yourself at such a time. No wonder you are so sessful in business. We businessmen


    can''tpare with your cold-bloodedness."


    As soon as he finished his words, everyone immediately nodded and agreed.


    "Mr. Chen, Master Pai is a wonderful person from Jade City. You can even say that he is thest old


    Chinese Medicine Practitioner. Are you not willing to help him?"


    "This is a matter of life and death. Mr. Chen, are you really so cruel?"


    "Forget it, we won''t force him. Let''s raise money together and buy this Dragon Root for Otto. I''m


    willing to pay a million!"


    "I will also pay a million yuan. Isn''t it just 20 million yuan. Let''s pool some money together. It would


    absolutely be enough."


    The atmosphere at the scene was very lively; it was as if that was a glorious and grand gathering.


    They seemed to be acting like the heroes in a game, and they were all trying to defeat the viin


    who was Fade.


    In such a situation, Fade could not help but look dignified. He said indifferently, "I won''t sell it even if


    you are willing to pay me forty million yuan."


    As soon as Fade said that, everyone became even more agitated. They red at Fade and


    criticized him.


    "You, you''ve gone too far. You know that Master Pai needs the Dragon Root to save his son, but


    still, you don''t want to sell it to him. You are just trying to raise the price."


    "Do you really want to earn money from something like this? How can you be so shameless?"


    "What a cold-blooded merchant! At times like this, the first thing in your mind was not to save


    people but to earn money!"


    Some of them even took out their mobile phones and threatened Fade directly, "When I bought the


    Fei Magic Toner from Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc, I didn''t expect the owner of thatpany to be


    so cruel. I''m going to call a press conference to expose this matter to the public and let all the


    people in Jade City boycott Fei Magic Toner."


    "Me too. Such a cold and heartless businessman shouldn''t have appeared in Jade City. We must


    drive him away!"


    "I''m ashamed to even see such a person."


    A group of people started to scold Fade, forcing him into a corner.


    Such a situation made Calvin extremely delighted. With a smile on his face, he was ready to contact


    the reporters and arrange a press conference to expose him.


    As for Otto, when he saw what was going on, he waspletely dumbfounded. After all, he just


    wanted to save his son, but he did not expect that things would take such a drastic turn.

    Facing the crowd, Otto hurriedly exined, "No, don''t do this. I know that you are all doing this out


    of good intention, but Mr. Chen is innocent. You can''t force him..."


    However, at that moment, the crowd did not listen to Otto''s words at all.


    In other words, at that moment, the excitement in their hearts was not only because they wanted to


    help Otto, but it was probably from the fact that they wanted the satisfaction of being a helpful


    person.


    In that situation, Otto was speechless. He stared at Fade and apologized, "Mr. Chen, I''m so sorry. I,


    I didn''t expect things to take a turn like this. I..."


    Otto still wanted to apologize, but he was pulled back by those so called "just" people.


    Fade understood Otto''s intention and gave him a look that indicated he understood what he meant.


    Then, he looked at the crowd and snorted coldly, "You are all such just, helpful people. You are all


    iming that you are helping others, but now you are forcing other people. Is this the so- called


    "justice"? It''s ridiculous."


    As soon as those words were spoken, a group of people immediately retorted.


    "Fade, you are the cold-blooded one here. What are you quibbling about?"


    "Just earn a little less and let Master Pai buy the Dragon Root to save his son''s life. It is a simple


    thing, but you''re not even willing to do that."


    "Sure enough, for a businessman like you, money is more important than human life."


    "That''s right. This kind of person would rather hold on to the herb and let it rot in his own hands than


    sell it at a low price to save people."


    Faced with their insults, Fade shouted loudly, "How can you say that I think that money is more


    important than a human life? And how can you say that this herb is useless to me? Who told you


    this?"


    That question made everyone pause for a moment, and they were speechless.


    However, Calvin immediately said, "Fade, even if you say so much, the oue is still the same.


    Stop making excuses."


    "An excuse?" Fade sneered. Then he red at Calvin and snapped, "What do you know? You don''t


    know anything. You''re just satisfying yourselves and acting as a just person to judge others."


    "You..." Calvin wanted to refute.


    However, Fade did not give him a chance to refute at all. He red at the crowd directly and said


    coldly, "You are all doing this to satisfy your own needs by being "just" and helping Otto, but do you


    all know why I bought this herb? Do you know that my wife is ill and also needs this herb to cure her


    illness?"


    "You guys don''t know anything and arrogantly judged me as a gold digger and said that I am willing


    to sacrifice a human life for money. How dare you criticize me? You know nothing, but you are still


    ridiculing and judging other people. Is this your so-called "justice"?"


    Fade''s questions made the whole crowd speechless.


    "He also wants to use that herb to save a human life?"


    "I can''t believe that there would be such a thing. What a coincidence."


    Its not because of money that he isn''t willing to sell the herb."
