Trillionaire's Slice of Life

Within just one week, Chu Mo had spent a total of twenty billion. Heidi Group's market value was only eighty-six billion. Under normal circumstances, a twenty billion investment would absolutely set off a major quake within the entire Heidi Group, yet the other party remained unscathed up to this point.

Chu Mo regarded Heidi Group as the third battlefield for himself to wage war against the eight major families, and thus was determined to bring down this company, with subsequent investments set to become even more aggressive.

Before leaving the Capital City, Chu Mo specifically met with Luo Hao, the Family Head of the Luo family, to relay his plans to fight the Heidi Group for an extended period. Whether the Luo family would continue to restrain the Yang family in the Capital City, was entirely up to their own plans.

Whether the Luo family chose to continue targeting the Yang family or decided to cease their actions had little impact on Chu Mo, so he didn't make any special requests.

In the end, handing over all matters related to the Capital City to Jia Tianze, and leaving the three maids brought from Suzhou City at the Tianxin Building headquarters, Chu Mo departed.

The setups in the Capital City were unfolding in an orderly manner. What was needed now was time. Chu Mo believed that in a year and a half, when he returned to the Capital City, the seeds he had planted would have taken root and sprouted. By that time, even the Yang family in the Capital City would not dare to act rashly against him.

In late April, leaving the sunny Capital City for the magic capital, the skies above appeared slightly overcast, which somewhat soured Chu Mo's mood.

The long journey had left him quite worn out. Upon returning to Emperor Xuan Villas, the butler Danny was leading ten maids to give him an enthusiastic reception at the courtyard entrance.

Seeing the familiar faces in front of him, and although he had only been gone for a week, Chu Mo surprisingly felt a sense of affection.

He nodded at the middle-aged butler and then proceeded to the main hall with the attendance of numerous maids.

First, he took a bath to wash away the journey's dust. His personal secretary, Xia Xue, tenderly massaged him, and an hour later, a freshly groomed Chu Mo emerged from the bathroom, followed by the extremely beautiful Xia Xue blushing faintly.

"Has anything happened at home recently?"

Chu Mo stood up straight, allowing a swarm of maids to groom and dress him.

His hair had grown a bit long, and he planned to ask his personal barber for a trim. As the main maid, Zhangsun Qing, gently put on his watch adorned with a large gemstone, the butler Danny at his side immediately reported respectfully,

"Mr. Chu, all is well at home. However, there was a minor incident. The day before yesterday, the complex's security reported that a woman claiming to be surnamed Zhou was looking for you. But since you were not present, she was turned away. She came again yesterday, and upon hearing of your absence, she left quietly!"

"A woman surnamed Zhou?"

Chu Mo rapidly searched his memory, and the first person he thought of was Zhou Yuanyuan.

Zhou Yuanyuan was the classmate and roommate of Chu Mo's cousin, Chu Xiner, and also the belle of the University of Science and Technology. He remembered being astounded by her beauty when he first saw her, and even contemplated pursuing her for a while.

However, Zhou Yuanyuan's aloof nature and her affluent family background implied that pursuing her would be too difficult, so Chu Mo eventually gave up. Still, he had a good impression of Zhou Yuanyuan.

If it were truly Zhou Yuanyuan, Chu Mo couldn't think of a reason she would seek him out on her own initiative.

It would be understandable if it were Tao Yun, the youthful-looking girl, since she and Chu Mo had been intimate before, and she would sneak into Emperor Xuan Villas from time to time. Chu Mo was used to it.

As for Zhou Yuanyuan, strictly speaking, they had never spent time alone together; their interactions were limited to parties or karaoke bars, where they were surrounded by crowds of people.

Chu Mo thought for a moment, then pulled out his phone from his pocket and quickly found Zhou Yuanyuan's number. Yet after hesitating briefly, he put the phone down.

If it was indeed her looking for him, it was better to wait for her to make the next move. He had her number, and she had his; if it was important, she would reach out.

Pocketing his phone, Chu Mo made his way to the courtyard entrance. Only then did he notice that the clouds overhead had grown denser, seemingly on the verge of raining at any moment.

As the saying goes, a spring rain is as precious as oil. Watching the flowers blooming in the courtyard, Chu Mo's heart gradually felt more translucent.

The most eye-catching feature of the entire courtyard was the helicopter—a luxury item worth over a hundred million—purchased together with a luxury yacht and a private Boeing jet, totaling nearly thirty billion.

Besides the luxury yacht that he had been on once a long time ago, which was now kept at the yacht club, the Boeing 747 parked at Changhong Airport in the magic capital was used much more frequently.

Chu Mo shifted his gaze away from the massive private jet in front of him, and finally, fine raindrops began to fall on his head. Walking in the drizzle had its own charm, but since he had just taken a bath, he didn't want to get wet again. So, after standing at the door for a moment, he turned and entered the villa.

He had planned to go to the third floor study to read for a while when the voice of the bodyguard's deputy team leader, Fang Lihu, suddenly rang out behind him.

For the time being, the bodyguard team leader Fan Gao needed to heal; his meridians had been reopened and significantly widened. Moreover, there was still a trace of Innate True Qi remaining in Fan Gao's meridians. He naturally used this time to practice diligently, hoping that by the time he returned to duty, Fan Gao would have at least regained his strength as a half-step Grandmaster.

If he was lucky enough, there might even be an opportunity for him to glimpse into the realm of a Great Grandmaster of martial arts.

However, with a real martial arts Grandmaster, Lei Ting, by Chu Mo's side, there was absolutely no need to worry about safety.

It's just that Lei Ting was not yet familiar with the affairs surrounding Chu Mo, so everything was currently managed by the deputy team leader, Fang Lihu.

The towering figure of Fang Lihu, standing over two meters tall, approached, and said cautiously:

"Mr. Chu, the security at the gate relayed a message that a Miss Zhou has come to see you. This is the third time she has requested an audience. Should I continue to say you're not available, or...?"

Chu Mo nodded slightly. The only Zhou family girl he knew was Zhou Yuanyuan, the classmate and close friend of his cousin. Since he was not available before but he had returned now, it would not be proper to turn her away.

Glancing back at the living room, and after a moment's hesitation, Chu Mo said directly:

"Bring her to my study!"

The tall Fang Lihu bowed and took his leave, while Chu Mo took the elevator to the third floor.

Pushing open the door to the study, he walked in and, looking at the bookshelves on either side of the wall filled with books, he casually picked up a book to peruse.

However, his unsettled mind made it difficult for him to concentrate.

Five minutes later, a commotion reached his ears, and the figure of the butler Danny appeared at the door. The middle-aged butler's voice was slightly hoarse as he said:

"Mr. Chu, your guest has arrived!"

Chu Mo nodded, gesturing dismissively:

"Let her in!"

In a moment, with the sound of high heels clicking on the floor, Chu Mo looked up. When he saw the person in front of him, he was taken aback.

Before him stood a woman with wavy hair, phoenix brows that curved like crescents, sparkling eyes, a delicate nose, lightly flushed cheeks, lips as fragrant as orchids, and a face as tender as an egret's cheeks—beautiful, with skin soft and clear as frost or snow, and a slender figure, like a Luo Goddess just emerged from the water.

To Chu Mo's surprise, the woman was not the University of Science and Technology's campus beauty, Zhou Yuanyuan, whom he had thought, but rather a stranger.

Just then, a woman with bright, starry eyes gracefully walked in through the door, standing in front of Chu Mo and spoke with a crisp and appealing voice:

"Mr. Chu, I am Zhou Ruyi. I apologize for intruding uninvited. Please forgive my forwardness, Mr. Chu!"

At these words, with narrowed eyes, Chu Mo instructed the butler Danny to serve tea, and then he spoke indifferently:

"Miss Ruyi, please have a seat!"

The woman with a cool aura sat quietly opposite him. Her dazzling eyes fixed on Chu Mo. After a long moment, she suddenly sighed and said:

"It seems Mr. Chu does not remember me, so let me reintroduce myself.

I am Zhou Ruyi, the only daughter of Zhou Weimin, the current Family Head from the Capital City's Zhou family, Zhou Weijun is my uncle, Zhou Tianqi and Zhou Tianfang are my cousins. Now that I mention it, you should know who I am, right, Mr. Chu?"
