Trillionaire's Slice of Life

The long-haired singer on the bar stage, who was utterly entranced by the young Miss Yang, didn't immediately leave the stage after his song had finished. Instead, he strummed the guitar strings once more and sang four or five more songs. Without exception, the man named Chen Qingshan was exceptionally invested. His singing was even more melodious and more moving than before, and even when he finally stepped off the stage, his gaze never left the corner booth. It was clear that the long-haired singer's actions were simply an attempt to attract the attention of young Miss Yang! In this moment, Chu Mo fully realized the unrivaled charm of Yang Duoer. If it hadn't been for his previous experiences with numerous stunningly beautiful women, he might have been as captivated by Yang Duoer's exceptional beauty as the singer. Chu Mo was currently in a phase where he was gradually distancing himself from carnal pleasures. He was no longer like he had been when he first got the unlimited credit card, when seeing any pretty girl would make it hard for him to look away, and encountering a girl scoring above ninety would make him treat her as a goddess, wanting to possess her immediately. Nowadays, when Chu Mo saw a young woman of extreme beauty, his first consideration was whether she had any use to him, what benefits he could gain from having her, or what kind of price he would have to pay. He wasn't particularly concerned about how those beautiful women might feel. Having tasted the delights of unlimited money, Chu Mo had come to a clear understanding. As long as he had his unlimited credit card in hand, there would be beautiful women around the world throwing themselves at him. It was this shift in mentality that allowed Chu Mo to resist being enchanted by Yang Duoer in front of him, enabling him to stay rational amidst her various flirtations and hints of romance. "Your fourth brother, Yang Xiulu, has been exiled to Zhongzhou, and you want to help your third brother ascend? I don't know much about your third brother. Personally, I would prefer Yang Xiulu to come to power. After all, I've had a good rapport with him—he and I have had dealings in the past. Even though there were some misunderstandings in the beginning, my impression of him is still fairly positive," he said. Chu Mo left something unsaid, which was that compared to Yang Jianguo, Chu Mo felt that Yang Xiulu would be easier to control. If Chu Mo went through great lengths to overthrow Yang Jianguo, only to have Yang Xiulu ascend and then ignore his wishes, then he would have truly been busy for nothing. Having dealt with Yang Xiulu, whether it was their confrontations at the Capital City's race track or their meeting at Prince Gong's Mansion, Chu Mo felt that Yang Xiulu was someone quite easy to satisfy. As his calm words fell, the young Miss Yang across from him, who had been wearing sunglasses the whole time, seemed to ponder for a moment. She thought deeply and then said confidently, "Although it would be a bit more difficult for the fourth brother to take the position than the third brother, since Mr. Chu has asked for it, I will fully support Yang Xiulu. I need certain startup funds in the near term, no less than ten billion. I plan to use this money to pave the way for my fourth brother and also to lay a trap for my second brother, Yang Jianguo. Mr. Chu, you wouldn't be stingy with such a trifling amount, would you?" Ten billion was but a drop in the bucket for Chu Mo, who had already firmly decided to support Yang Duoer's plan and naturally wouldn't skimp on such a small sum. After a slight pause, Chu Mo took out a bank card from his pocket and said casually, "This is a Citibank VIP card, with a hundred billion in it, all stored in accounts overseas. The funds can't be traced back to either of us, so use it freely. Moreover, you should have heard about me; whether it's ten billion or a hundred billion, I don' even blink an eye. I wouldn't even blink if I were to toss that amount into a river. However, if I ever find out that someone has betrayed or deceived me... let's just say that consequences can't be settled with ten billion or a hundred billion." The woman sitting across from him, with her painting-like beautiful features, gently curved her crimson lips into a smile. She leaned forward to pick up the prestigious bank card from the table, toyed with it in her hands for a moment, before finally speaking with a sense of reverence, "A hundred billion... Mr. Chu, you truly haven't disappointed me. If I had had this bank card a few years earlier, perhaps we would be at the stage of closing the net by now. But it's not too late, the heirs of the eight great families are currently in the throes of a struggle for power. As long as we play the long game, with Mr. Chu's massive investments and my connections and management, ten years? No... maybe in just five years' time, the eight great families of Hua Country will be under our control!" Chu Mo knew that the woman in front of him, who was only a year younger than himself, had colossal ambitions. He lifted his glass and, as he clinked glasses with her once more, Fan Gao, who was responsible for security nearby, suddenly approached. He came up to Chu Mo and then bowed slightly: "Mr. Chu, Fan Zhijian just called to say that the sisters Zi Xiang and Zi Yi have arrived at the entrance of the bar. Additionally, Fan Zhijian asked me to tell you that from now on, these two sisters will follow your every command without any ties to the Fan family! Shall I have the two sisters come over?" Upon hearing this, Chu Mo fell into a slight silence. He hadn't expected that just after he mentioned the two sisters to Fan Gao, Fan Zhijian would immediately make a decision! Zi Xiang and Zi Yi, these twin sisters, with looks that scored over ninety-seven, even among Tianxiang Garden's elite on the ninety-fifth floor, belonged to the cream of the crop. And such twins could be an enormous temptation for men. The Fan family had invested an unthinkable amount of effort to groom these sisters. Now that they had just come of age, Fan Zhijian had decided to offer them to him, which showed how decisive Fan Zhijian was. However, it also indicated just how close the ties between the Fan family and himself were. Of course, Chu Mo was aware that at this moment, the Fan family was well and truly bound to his own fate. They had no possibility of retreat; the Fan family had only two options: either to replace the Lin family and become the number one family in Capital City, or to be jointly suppressed by the eight great families and the Lin family, and ultimately disappear from Capital City like Su Zhengxiong. At this point, the entire Fan family could be said to be fighting with their backs to the water, and Chu Mo, as the Fan family's greatest supporter, naturally became the object of Fan Zhijian's wholehearted efforts to ingratiate himself. While Chu Mo was silent for a moment, Yang Duoer across from him suddenly smiled and said: "Oh? Are they the pair of sisters you mentioned, Mr. Chu? Since they're here, let me meet them. After all, from now on they'll be taking orders from me. If they are obedient, they might play a more significant role than expected!" Hearing this, Chu Mo didn't say anything more. He nodded at Fan Gao, who immediately understood and departed. In just a moment, Fan Gao reappeared, followed by a pair of breathtakingly beautiful girls who were mirror images of each other, each with a teardrop mole at the corner of their eye, shyly trailing behind him. This pair of twin sisters, who had just celebrated their twenty-first birthday and were in the full bloom of youth, wore identical pink trench coats. They had the same shoulder-length hair and flawlessly exquisite features, which did not pale at all in comparison to Tianxiang Garden's finest attendant, Liang Bing! Perhaps the only ones who could compete with these twins were Ding Qian, endowed with otherworldly beauty, and Yang Duoer, the young mistress of the Yang family. But considering the special allure of twins, for many people, they might choose the twins first and foremost!
