The auction of True Blood was essentially a competition among the VIP rooms on the second floor; the people in the auction hall below were practically irrelevant—they didn't even have the chance to offer bids.
Yet some found it quite strange that as each drop of True Blood was sold off, VIP Room No.1 had not called out a single bid.
"What exactly is VIP Room No.1 waiting for?" someone speculated. "Could it be that they're waiting for the last drop to make their move?"
"Could it be that the occupants of VIP Room No.1 didn't show up today?"
...
The excited onlookers below were all abuzz with speculation. Although it didn't directly concern them, sitting there and watching the twinkling True Blood on display and observing the powerful figures on the second floor vying for it provided a certain degree of satisfaction in their hearts.
