Trillionaire's Slice of Life

He shook his head slightly and then, without further insistence, turned to leave, with Lu Siyue immediately following closely. As Chu Mo approached the private elevator, the seemingly indecisive Lu Siyue noticed that Chu Mo was about to step onto the elevator and carefully asked again:

"Mr. Chu, who do you think should be chosen as the champion this time...?"

Chu Mo did not speak; he entered the elevator on his own, and seeing Lu Siyue attempting to follow, he gently waved his hand and said:

"You have many things to handle here; there's no need to waste your time following me!"

A trace of struggle flashed across the eyes of Lu Siyue, who immediately halted her steps, and just as the elevator doors were about to close, she bowed her head slightly and said:

"Take care, Mr. Chu."

The elevator doors closed completely, and, as the high-speed elevator moved rapidly and steadily, Chu Mo reached the lobby on the first floor within a minute.

The figure of Jiang Tao, the president of the detective agency, appeared before him. Seeing the familiar figure following him, Chu Mo did not rush to leave but instead went to sit down at a seat in the corner of the lobby to rest.

Xu Jing, the general manager of Tianxiang Garden, personally came forward to serve.

She was a 36 or 37-year-old woman, in the prime of her charm, and aside from Zhan Bingxue, she was the highest responsible person in Tianxiang Garden as well as the actual controller of the super hotel valued at 220 billion.

A few months ago, when Chu Mo was hosting the jewelry queen at Tianxiang Garden, it was this general manager who served him, and at that time, the young master of the Zhou family from Shanghai, Zhou Tianfang, caused trouble, resulting in Xu Jing suffering a slap from the other party.

Chu Mo had a very good impression of this general manager, so seeing her proactively coming forward to serve, he nodded slightly and then said:

"Bring me a cup of black tea!"

The charming woman immediately nodded respectfully, and as Xu Jing bowed and retreated, the towering figure of Jiang Tao had already approached.

Chu Mo shifted his gaze to the woman dressed in a blue skirt behind Jiang Tao.

"Mr. Chu, Miss Zhang insisted on seeing you, so I brought her here," Jiang Tao said, towering at two meters twenty with a commanding presence, bowing respectfully as Chu Mo nodded lightly. He turned his attention to the short-skirted woman across from him and said in an indifferent voice:

"Miss Zhang, please have a seat!"

The woman in front of him was Zhang Xiaoyan, the chairman of the Phoenix Bodyguard Company. A few months ago, Chu Mo had encountered her, and it was only a few days ago, after a manager from Tianxiangyuan Eighty-Nine Floors had pleaded on her behalf, that Chu Mo agreed to let her off the hook.

If this had been a few months earlier, she certainly wouldn't have hesitated to sit down, but the past few months had tempered her, and now Zhao Xiaoyan no longer possessed her former persistence and pride. This formidable woman who once broke Fang Lihu's arm merely stood quietly in front of Chu Mo. After several deep breaths, she didn't sit down but instead looked directly at Chu Mo and said:

"Mr. Chu, I was immature in the past. Please be magnanimous and don't take offense at my actions."

At that moment, the still-charming general manager Xu Jing, carrying tea, approached. He accepted the black tea from her hand, sipped it lightly, and casually said:

"In my eyes, what you did is not worth mentioning. Just work well in the detective agency in the future, and I won't treat you unfairly."

The woman in front obviously had something to say, knowing that the chance to meet with Chu Mo was rare, so after a moment of silence, the woman of no small strength spoke again:

"Mr. Chu, I want to re-establish the Phoenix Bodyguard Company, and I hope you can reassign the company's original employees back to the Phoenix Bodyguard Company. From now on, our entire company will join the detective agency, waiting for your dispatch."

Chu Mo glanced casually at the woman in front of him. The Phoenix Bodyguard Company was now just an empty shell; almost all its employees have been recruited by Chu Mo's own company, and were now managed by the Twelve Golden Phoenixes head coach Chen Yue. Chu Mo would not let them return, and the Phoenix Bodyguard Company could only be part of the past; it could never be re-established.

Ignoring the pleading look of the woman opposite him, Chu Mo said indifferently:

"I'll give you two choices, one is to join the detective agency, and from now on, don't think about being some chairman. In the detective agency, you are just an ordinary employee, starting from the most basic level and climbing your way up.

The second is to pack up your things and get out. We in the detective agency have no shortage of self-righteous, insubordinate people. As for reestablishing the Phoenix Bodyguard Company... I gave you a chance before, but unfortunately, you gave it up yourself."

As his words fell, he no longer spared a glance at the other party, the woman bit her lower lip. Despite her urge to punch Chu Mo in the face and wish this bastard, who dismantled her company, dead, she knew the man in front of her was so powerful that he covered the sky with one hand. He had several demi-grandmasters under him; her once-proud strength was nothing in front of this man.

What's more, this man now virtually controlled over half of the Magic City's forces. His detective agency had thousands of personnel, and even at the height of the Phoenix Bodyguard Company, they had no power to resist.

After taking a deep breath, Zhang Xiaoyan finally put aside the obsession in her heart, knowing she could not contend with the man before her, and chose to submit.

She bowed slightly, yet a strange glimmer flashed in the depths of her eyes before she respectfully said:

"Mr. Chu, from now on, I am at your disposal."

Chu Mo looked at the woman who had chosen to submit. He nodded slightly, a faint sense of anticipation in his heart. Zhang Xiaoyan was prideful and arrogant, but she indeed had the solid strength of a demi-grandmaster. Her strength was formidable, and if he could completely subdue her, she would become a significant asset to him in the future.

Chu Mo gazed at the woman before him, pondered for a moment, and decided to give her a taste of the good life. After a moment of silence, he continued:

"The strength of our detective agency is nothing like your Phoenix Bodyguard Company could compare with. Here, ranks are strictly enforced, and with each upgrade, both power and benefits geometrically increase.

You start from the lowest rank, and I promise you, as long as you can become a level seven detective, then the original female bodyguards of the Phoenix Bodyguard Company will all be reassigned under you, and by then, you can command them as before. Now go."

Chu Mo waved his hand, the tall figure of Jiang Tao led Zhang Xiaoyan to bow and take her leave. Chu Mo picked up the red tea in front of him and sipped it gently, accompanied by Xu Jing, the general manager of Tianxiang Garden at his side.

Having drunk most of the red tea in the cup, the languid Chu Mo was about to rise and leave when the elevator doors across the hall slid open, and at that moment, a figure looking somewhat anxious made her appearance.

The woman with dazzling eyes stepped out of the elevator and hurried towards the exit of the hall. However, when her gaze accidentally turned towards the corner table and saw Chu Mo carelessly drinking tea, she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

The next moment, the woman with a dream-like beauty looked directly at Chu Mo. She hesitated for a while, then changed direction, heading straight towards the corner.

The black-clothed bodyguards responsible for security immediately became alert, but when Chu Mo saw the young woman from the ancient town coming towards him, he shook his head slightly at the bodyguards not far away, signaling them not to be rash.

Sure enough, as the dozen or so bodyguards ceased their movements, the nineteen-year-old ancient town girl finally approached. She looked directly at Chu Mo with her large eyes, hesitated for a long time, and then in a clear voice, she said:

"Excuse me... are you Mr. Chu?"

Purple Snow Han, with her ultimate 100 points of beauty, just stood there quietly. As she spoke, all the lights in the hall seemed to fade away, making even the four receptionists at the front desk, each with beauty over ninety points, look like mere ugly ducklings by comparison.

Chu Mo's eyes brightened slightly. He had only seen her briefly in the dance hall and felt as if his soul had left his body. Now, however, face to face with her, he truly experienced the stunning allure she possessed.

It was as if a single bewitching look from her could completely captivate his soul with her endless charm.
