Trillionaire's Slice of Life

A 38,000 RMB diamond ring made Ye Xiaomeng's eyes go wide. As a senior at the Music Academy, the most expensive accessory on Ye Xiaomeng was the pair of earrings that cost 1,900 RMB on her ears. A 38,000 RMB diamond ring, to be honest, if she wasn't with Chu Mo, she wouldn't have given it a second glance on her own. After all, it was far beyond her purchasing power.

Chu Mo's attention wasn't on Ye Xiaomeng; his main mission coming here was to inspect his shop. After seeing that everything was running well and all the staff were professional, he felt relieved.

It made sense, after all. The staff here were professionally trained. Except for the manager who was transferred from the metropolis, the other salespeople were the original staff, and the operation of the store hadn't changed at all. The only change might just be the name of the store.

After observing for a moment and not spotting anything amiss, Chu Mo shifted his focus away and, when he looked back at Ye Xiaomeng, found that the young girl had returned to his side, her delicate hands empty.

Chu Mo remembered that she seemed to really like the round diamond with four prongs, and, lifting his brows slightly, he casually asked,

"What's the matter, don't you like it?"

Dressed in a personally tailored short skirt and white blouse, Ye Xiaomeng might have appeared to be wearing something very ordinary; however, in fact, both the material and the workmanship of her clothes were the world's top-quality, not even a bit less than the most high-end luxury brands.

Ye Xiaomeng, with her long hair draped over her shoulders, shook her head slightly; her big eyes didn't dare to meet Chu Mo's gaze as she said softly,

"That ring is too expensive...!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Mo couldn't help but turn to glance at the display counter, and after confirming that the ring she was looking at was merely 38,000 RMB, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.

He thought the price of such diamond rings should be quite approachable. Even an average person would grit their teeth and get a wedding ring at that level, and some young couples were willing to save up half a year's salary to afford it. Ever since he obtained the unlimited credit card, Chu Mo had never looked at such cheap gems again.

In Chu Mo's eyes, a diamond ring worth less than a million was not worth a second glance. Only diamonds worth tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, could capture his attention.

Chu Mo suddenly found the young girl by his side rather interesting. With her, he felt as if he had returned to the times before he had the unlimited credit card.

If it were a year ago, when facing a 38,000 RMB diamond ring, he would have nothing to do but shake his head and sigh, because back then, even his total savings were barely 10,000 RMB.

He gently took the hand of the girl next to him and then said with a smile,

"If you like it, let's buy it. Don't worry about saving money for me... But to be honest, this ring is not good enough for you. If we're going to buy one, it should be at least on the level of 'Heart of the Ocean.'"

Among the many girls Chu Mo knew, Ye Xiaomeng was one with a rather average appearance. She didn't possess the stunning beauty of Ding Qian or Princess Mina Gong, and she didn't even compare to the several female attendants around him. A 90-point beauty might be considered a great beauty to the average person, but among the girls around Chu Mo, she was just very ordinary.

If it were half a year ago, right after he got the unlimited credit card and before encountering countless beautiful women, Chu Mo certainly wouldn't have been impressed by Ye Xiaomeng's looks. But now, after being cleansed by numerous beauties, he no longer cared so much about the appearance of girls. Instead, as long as their looks were within a certain limit, he preferred them to have an interesting soul.

Perhaps that's why those top tycoons weren't swayed by beauty; they simply had played too much in their youth.

Ye Xiaomeng was just an ordinary college senior, still retaining the purest and finest qualities of a young girl, unspoiled by the dye vat of society, still in the ivory tower of school.

And it was because of her pure, youthful quality that Chu Mo felt like he was seeing his past self, which is why he felt something special for her.

Furthermore, since Ye Xiaomeng had given her first time to him, Chu Mo, being a traditional man by nature, would naturally take full responsibility.

This was the first time Chu Mo had chosen a gift for Ye Xiaomeng, and the idea of being stingy had never crossed his mind. In his opinion, his woman deserved the very best, and the first gift he gave her definitely couldn't be anything less than extraordinary.

Chu Mo had once given a jade ring worth 80 million, a necklace called Heart of the Ocean valued over a hundred million, a several hundred million-dollar mansion for Yang Xuan, and a villa worth several hundred million for Zhan Bingxue. Naturally, he would not shortchange the girl in front of him.

Ye Xiaomeng had taken a liking to a 38,000 RMB diamond ring, but she couldn't bear to buy it. Chu Mo, however, didn't even consider it. As his gaze swept over the displays nearby, he noticed that the most expensive ring on the largest display was just a mere 180,000 RMB, which was nowhere near the figure in Chu Mo's mind.

Chu Mo didn't want the first gift he gave to Ye Xiaomeng to be so casual. He turned his gaze towards the saleslady across from him and said with an expressionless face:

"What's the most expensive piece of jewelry you have here? Bring it out for me to see!"

The young saleswoman in front of him, with her hair tied in a ponytail and looking to be in her early twenties, sized up Chu Mo. After a pause, she finally spoke:

"Sir, please wait a moment!"

The saleslady turned and went to the back, and at this moment, Ye Xiaomeng, standing beside Chu Mo, suddenly whispered:

"Chu, brother, you don't need to buy me such expensive jewelry. It's not appropriate for me to wear something so valuable at school!"

Chu Mo looked down at the long-haired girl next to him, with her face full of caution. From the bottom of her eyes, he could clearly see worry. He slightly curved his lips and spoke impassively:

"As long as it's from me, you should just accept it with peace of mind, Xiaomeng. Remember, your life is going to get better and better. If you wish, taking the moon down from the sky wouldn't be difficult either."

Chu Mo rarely spoke such sweet nothings. After all, he was inherently introverted and preferred to act rather than talk.

Ye Xiaomeng, who had been careful up until now, slightly pursed her lips. Although her cheeks were slightly red and her eyes sparkled enchantingly, she still retorted:

"Braggart, just trying to make me happy."

At her words, Chu Mo's face became serious. He looked down at the beautiful girl beside him and said earnestly:

"I'm not bragging; I truly have the capability. I've established Star Technology Company, with investments already exceeding 30 billion. In a year, the investment will reach over 100 billion. The company has hired the world's top tech talents, aiming for the stars and seas.

The current main task of Star Technology is to research manned spacecraft. Although it's just the beginning, I believe that within five or ten years, we will be able to ride our own spaceship to the moon. By then, picking up a few pebbles to give to you from the moon's surface would be like bringing down the moon for you, right!"

Chu Mo was serious because everything he said was true. The goal of Star Technology Company was indeed the stars and seas, and the future market value of Star Company might even exceed a trillion, forming one of Chu Mo's most significant arrangements.

However, his dream was too far-fetched. Even though the young girl beside him already held him in high esteem, she still couldn't believe Chu Mo's words at this moment.

At this instant, Ye Xiaomeng just slightly pursed her lips, obviously regarding Chu Mo's words as no more than a daydream.

Chu Mo smiled slightly, not bothering to explain any further. At this time, the saleslady who had left returned, accompanied by a woman around thirty years old, with an air of mature sexiness all around her.
