Trillionaire's Slice of Life

"Mr. Chu, Subject One's vital signs have shown some complications, and we are currently making every effort to resuscitate them. I'm afraid that the following itinerary will need some adjustments."

In the opulent guest hall on the twenty-second floor of the Longevity Club, where over a hundred of the world's top tycoons from all over had gathered, the club's chief scientist, Fred, appeared before Chu Mo with a grave expression.

The midday rest period had ended, and according to previously planned preparations, Chu Mo was to lead a tour, personally guiding a hundred and ten of the club's elite members through the research institution located in the basement of the club.

There, not only were scientists from the top fields around the world gathered, but also the world's most advanced equipment was available. In just a little over a year, Chu Mo had invested a staggering three to four hundred billion in the club, naturally, aside from a portion of that sum used for accommodating numerous researchers, the vast majority went into the underground six-story research facility.

According to the original plan, it was time to promote the club's various hardware measures and boost the confidence of its members. However, at this critical juncture, Situ, the subject of Experiment One and the first user of the Longevity Pill, suddenly encountered a serious issue, which for Chu Mo, was undoubtedly a massive and serious change of events.

Chu Mo glanced briefly at the many top tycoons around him, noting that everyone was still laughing and talking intimately, with no signs of noticing anything amiss. He then calmly asked:

"What's the exact situation? Is there any life-threatening danger? Situ, as the first user of the Longevity Pill, heavily influences the attitude towards the Longevity Pill. Master Fred, you must understand that if something goes wrong with Subject One, our entire Longevity Pill series will face a severe setback!"

Although Chu Mo maintained a composed demeanor, his heart was also filled with helplessness.

Today marked the first gathering of tycoons at the club, as well as a critical moment for the implementation of the club's membership system. If something went wrong at this crucial time, the Longevity Club, into which he had poured countless efforts, might directly plummet from its peak to a low valley.

As the chief scientist of the club, Fred clearly understood the severity of the situation. The old man, with hair fully gray, slightly bowed his head, his voice somber:

"Rest assured, Mr. Chu, please give me a little time, I will do my utmost to rescue Subject One!"

Taking a deep breath, a shadow passed across Chu Mo's eyes as he slightly opened his mouth. He intended to say something more, but the words stopped on his lips, and finally, after a powerless sigh, Chu Mo slowly said:

"Go ahead!"

Upon hearing this, Fred, the chief scientist of the club, immediately turned and left.

At that moment, a soft series of footsteps approached Chu Mo, who seemed absent-minded and did not pay attention to who was coming. Moments later, the crisp sound of high heels faded, followed by a warm voice tinged with concern:

"That was Master Fred, the American scientist just now, wasn't it? If I remember correctly, Fred is a two-time Nobel laureate, ranked among the top three of the hundred existing top scientists."

As a junior at the University of Science and Technology of Magic City, Zhou Yuanyuan was more interested in the scientist Fred than in the top tycoons worth tens or hundreds of billions in the surroundings.

However, as she finished speaking and seemingly noticed Chu Mo's distraction, the delicate girl carefully said:

"What's wrong? Brother Chu, you seem to have a lot on your mind, are you too tired?"

Zhou Yuanyuan's gentle voice brought Chu Mo back from his thoughts.

Situ, the subject of Experiment One, had been recuperating in the underground laboratory for a whole month, and for today's gathering of top tycoons, Situ had been given ten minutes of free time.

Although Chu Mo had earlier noticed the old man's lack of energy and had let him rest after only a few minutes of appearance, he did not expect that problems would still arise.

Chu Mo now felt some regret; in hindsight, he should not have taken the risk of allowing Situ to move freely.

After all, the old man's health was already in dire straits, and that he was still alive was a miracle. There was absolutely no need to gratuitously present him before the crowd.

Of course, there was no use in regretting what had happened, and Chu Mo could not now blame anyone else, as without his consent and approval, the opportunity would never have been possible.

His gaze shifted to Zhou Yuanyuan next to him.

The girl, with her proportionate and slender figure, seemed even more resilient and radiant than when he first met her.

Chu Mo remembered his first encounter with Zhou Yuanyuan, being enchanted by her icy demeanor and even thought at one point that she was the most beautiful goddess in the world.

At that time, he had just received an unlimited credit card and did not even have the qualifications to pursue a girl.

Now, in just a short year, the girl in front of him was still that shining figure, with a rare beauty score of ninety-eight. But to Chu Mo's eyes, Zhou Yuanyuan was no longer so unattainable, like a delicate flower ripe for the tasting.
