Trillionaire's Slice of Life

In the verdant grassland dotted with flowers, beside a clear stream, an elegant woman in a white dress danced her slender fingers across the golden piano keys. In an instant, a fragrance-like, beautiful melody flowed around her.

In the antique pavilion, all kinds of delicacies, wines, and coffees were available. The graceful matrons and ladies of high society were all dressed to the nines, each assuming a thousand charming poses!

As the first man to step into the Tianxiang Garden weekend gathering of socialites, Chu Mo's arrival immediately enlivened the entire Shangri-La hall.

Dozens of ladies came up to greet him one after another. These included familiar faces like Lu Siyue, the eldest daughter of the Lu family, as well as many young ladies whom he had never met before.

Towards these equally influential ladies in the metropolis, Chu Mo maintained a smile throughout, presenting himself with cultured grace and impeccable politeness.

"Mr. Chu, let me introduce you. This is He Yuxin, the eldest daughter of the He family. Yuxin just returned from studying in Australia last month, and she is a widely acclaimed talent in our metropolis!"

Lin Ling'er, the eldest daughter of the Lin family, was the person in charge of the eighty-sixth floor of Tianxiang Garden, and she had always served as the hostess at every gathering there.

Although there had been a rift between Chu Mo and the Lin family recently, with Chu Mo investing billions into the jewelry industry, clearly challenging the Lin family, Lin Ling'er appeared as if she hadn't been affected at all.

This woman, who wielded tremendous power in the Lin family, acted like Chu Mo's personal secretary, introducing him to one guest after another.

The girl named He Yuxin was dressed in a light pink shawl jacket, which accentuated her splendid figure, paired with a tender yellow velvet knee-length skirt, a pair of high boots, and naturally wavy black hair resting on her shoulders.

As she stepped forward gently, Chu Mo saw her bright pupils, curved eyebrows, and her fair skin blushing with a faint pink!

Chu Mo intended to extend his hand, but he realized the girl in front of him had no intention of shaking hands with him. He smoothly raised his hand instead, then adjusted the golden glasses on his nose, making the whole process look natural and harmonious.

"Miss He, I've long admired your reputation!"

Chu Mo didn't feel any dissatisfaction due to her aloofness. He may have been called the strongest eligible bachelor in the metropolis, but he wasn't a real diamond; he couldn't possibly be liked by all women.

He Yuxin, who had returned from studying in Australia, merely tilted her head slightly. Her voice wasn't particularly crisp, but it carried a hint of magnetism that ignited one's imagination, as she said softly:

"Mr. Chu is joking. I bet you never heard my name before. Instead, since my return to the country, I've frequently heard of your great name at various occasions. Mr. Chu of the metropolis, I am truly the one who has long admired your reputation!"

Chu Mo slightly curled the corners of his mouth. He didn't argue; indeed, he had never heard of this person before.

As for the He family of the metropolis, Chu Mo had certainly heard of them. If he guessed right, during the incident with Prince Ben Hesed of Dubai at the metropolis's race track, the He family was among the dozen families he had punished!

Of course, Chu Mo didn't take such a trivial matter to heart. Having realized why Miss He Yuxin didn't like him, he smiled suddenly, nodded to her, and then walked toward another waiting lady of distinction to greet him!

"Mr. Chu, please don't feel like an outsider. Yuxin has just returned from Australia and doesn't quite understand what's happening in the metropolis. Don't let such a young lady affect your mood,"

Lin Ling'er also closely followed by his side. In this moment, she was acting in her capacity as the person in charge of the garden hall on the eighty-sixth floor of Tianxiang Garden, and not as the eldest daughter of the Lin family.

Chu Mo merely nodded slightly, indicating that he really didn't care, and at that moment, another lady of high society gracefully approached him.

This was a distinguished woman who appeared to be in her early thirties. Dressed in a luxurious backless gown, her figure and pale, delicate skin were impressively maintained, with a tiny waist that could be encircled with one hand, and an exposed back as dazzling as snow.

"Mr. Chu, let me introduce you to Sun Huimin, the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family. Huimin used to manage the pastoral life hall on the eighty-ninth floor upstairs."

Hearing this, Chu Mo slightly raised an eyebrow!

Sun Huimin, the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family—this name was definitely not unfamiliar to him. She was the wife of Zhou Weijun, the second son of Shanghai's Zhou family, and also the mother of the young master Zhou Tianfang, who had caused trouble in Tianxiang Garden.

What surprised Chu Mo was that, by age, Sun Huimin's older son Zhou Tianqi was already twenty-six, and her younger son Zhou Tianfang was twenty-three; with two sons, she must be over fifty years old at least.

But without Lin Ling'er's introduction, Chu Mo might have mistaken her for a thirty-year-old socialite; he would never have thought she was a woman in her fifties.

"Mr. Chu, a few days ago, my son behaved improperly and offended you. I haven't had the chance to offer my apologies. By draining this cup today, I hope Mr. Chu can forgive and forget the past," she said.

The elegant lady with the stunning back picked up a full glass of wine. She nodded slightly towards Chu Mo, insisting on her gesture, and then tilted her head back to pour the red wine into her mouth.

Watching a trace of red liquid at the corner of her mouth, Chu Mo gestured lightly, and immediately a waitress brought him half a glass of red wine. He lifted the glass and took a gentle sip, marking an end to this matter.

"Thank you, Mr. Chu!"

The fair-complexioned lady whose face was tinted with a blush thanked him again. She looked at Chu Mo with a complex expression on her face as he simply nodded, then walked past her.

The strife between the two Zhou brothers in Shanghai was known to all, and Chu Mo did not wish to be involved; therefore, he needed to maintain a clear boundary with this lady. Discover exclusive content at My Virtual Library Empire

As he continued to move forward, various socialites and noble ladies came one after the other to toast and chat with him. Most were very courteous and respectful towards Chu Mo, and few dared to show disrespect. After a round of introductions, Chu Mo had inadvertently become the center of the entire circle.

He was surrounded by over a dozen unwed young ladies, each looking at him with eyes brimming with complexity and provocation.

"Mr. Chu, I heard that you raced cars with Prince Ben Hesed of Dubai recently. How is your relationship with His Highness? He's a real prince—the crown prince and future King of Dubai!"

Little girls, having read too many fairy tales, naturally dream of stories about princes and princesses. To ordinary people, princes only exist in storybooks, but for the truly wealthy, both princes and kings are merely distinguished guests!

Chu Mo, holding a glass of red wine, looked at the young girl in front of him, her face blooming with youth, and he smiled and said warmly:

"Prince Ben Hesed is a very nice and righteous person, a rare friend indeed. The last time I visited the maid's tavern with His Highness, I found him to be quite humorous!

Furthermore, Prince Al-Waleed of Sartor is also a very sociable man. If I have the chance, I might invite several princes to visit Hua Country. All you beautiful princesses should seize the opportunity..."
