Trillionaire's Slice of Life

Chapter 097 Overwhelming (New week, begging for recommendations)

The young man in sunglasses who had been cursing under his breath at being stopped by the server at the door instantly fell silent under the gaze of several dozen pairs of eyes.

Chu Mo, who had just set down his coffee cup, waved at the youth, who, feeling as if he was entering the tiger's den, hurriedly removed the sunglasses perched on the bridge of his nose and slowly made his way to a corner of the coffee shop.

At this time, the towering figure of Jiang Tao, who stood over two meters tall, also came to Chu Mo's side, ready in case the other party made any irrational moves.

"Bro, it was Yun Changzai who sent me," the young man said.

In the spirit of not killing the messenger in times of war, Chu Mo wasn't in the mood to trouble this obviously mere message bearer.

Glancing at the young man, Chu Mo said nonchalantly,

"Didn't we agree to meet at this coffee shop? I've cleared out the place for us. Why change the location now?"

Jiang Tao's presence by his side was truly intimidating; even Chu Mo had felt overpowered when he first laid eyes on him.

Now, as Jiang Tao's towering figure stared the opponent down, the young man with long hair began to sweat and swallowed hard before cautiously speaking without even daring to take deep breaths,

"That... bro, Yun Changzai said this place isn't quite convenient..."

Hearing this, Chu Mo nodded his head lightly and agreed,

"Indeed, it's not very convenient. You lead the way."

As soon as the words were out, Chu Mo stood up, and the young man in front quickly nodded and bowed, leading the way.

The dozens of scattered individuals in the hall promptly headed towards the exit, with drivers hastening to start their vehicles.

When Chu Mo reached the entrance of the coffee shop, he paused for a moment, then turned around and beckoned to the woman behind him with a complex expression. The elegantly dressed woman wearing a professional skirt came over, and Chu Mo casually said as he took out his phone,

"Add me as a friend."

The woman, who had been holding her phone as if she were constantly in touch with someone, bit her lip and took out her own phone. She then opened WeChat and scanned Chu Mo's QR code.

A moment later, Chu Mo received the notification and approved the request. He opened the woman's profile and then directly transferred her 100,000 RMB.

"The pasta and coffee are pretty good."

Finally, he nodded to the woman and walked out of the coffee shop where a Rolls-Royce Phantom was already parked in front.

Pointing to the long-haired young man, Chu Mo instructed Jiang Tao by his side,

"Have him go to that car in front and lead the way."

As the instruction was given, Shou Bo had already opened the car door for him. Without further ado, Chu Mo slid into the backseat of the Rolls-Royce.

With the sound of several car doors closing in sequence, all the burly men got on board. As the convoy slowly started moving, Chu Mo turned his head and caught sight of the long-haired female manager at the coffee shop door, respectfully bowing alongside several servers as they sent them off.

The 100,000 RMB was definitely enough to compensate for the coffee shop's loss.

Chu Mo felt that the coffee shop owner might hope he would visit more often in the future.

As the convoy smoothly merged onto the main road, Chu Mo gently closed his eyes to rest.

After a journey of stop-and-go, which didn't take very long, about twenty minutes later, the Rolls-Royce stopped again amidst a series of the doors being opened.

Taking a deep breath and opening his eyes, Chu Mo saw that the door next to him had been opened. Stepping out of the vehicle, he looked around casually and immediately realised that they were far from the bustling area, most likely on a construction site in the suburbs.

Opposite him, dozens of young people with dyed hair stood as if facing a formidable enemy.

Chu Mo couldn't find Yun Changzai among them but instead focused on the woman in black at the forefront.

About 1.65 meters tall and not particularly pretty, the woman stood out from the surroundings, even wearing high heels. Clearly, the dozens of punks considered this woman in black their leader.

The sun overhead was partially blocked by the half-covered building in front, and there were no workers on site, presumably cleared out by the others in advance.

Chu Mo noticed many of the punks glancing up at the building from time to time and followed their gazes upward, only to see someone peering out from a window on the tenth floor or so.

Chu Mo gave a slight signal to Shou Bo at his side, and immediately, Shou Bo led five or six men sneaking towards the building.

At this moment, Chu Mo suddenly asked Jiang Tao beside him with a face full of curiosity:

"Just like this, how many can you fight?"

Without hesitation, and appearing very serious, Jiang Tao replied in a deep voice:

"Fang Lihu and his six are specially recruited, and without using weapons, as long as there are two watching each other's backs, they can knock all these hoodlums down. For the others, without using lethal force, one can fight eight or nine."

Hearing this and glancing back at the dozens of large men behind him, Chu Mo realized he might have gone a bit overboard. If he had known that two men could handle this group of hoodlums, there wouldn't have been a need for such a grand display of force.

Finally, he turned his gaze to Jiang Tao at his side, the two-meter-tall man always exuding the presence of a fierce tiger.

With a hint of curiosity in his eyes, Chu Mo asked casually:

"Then what about you, how many can you take on?"

Hearing this, Jiang Tao answered without any hesitation and with seriousness:

"Even if there were twice as many, they could exhaust me to death with a war of attrition, of course, that's if they're not afraid of death."

With his eyes sparkling, Chu Mo didn't think Jiang Tao was bragging. If this man said such words, it meant he was completely confident.

Noises of cursing and fighting had already erupted from a high floor of the building in front of them, clearly, Shou Bo had made his move.

Hearing cries for help, the black-clothed woman leader couldn't sit still any longer. She ordered the gaggle of hoodlums behind her, and soon enough, they became restless.

Without needing Chu Mo to speak, Jiang Tao beside him immediately said:

"Zhao Weimin, your third team, go."

As his words fell, five robust men immediately rushed forward.

Then, with Zhao Weimin leading the charge, he plunged directly into the crowd.

Seeing one of their men punch a blonde youngster to the ground, the screams and curses only then carried over from a distance.

Indeed, as Jiang Tao said, even though it was five against fifty, the fight was still lopsidedly suppressed. The five men were like tigers plunging into a flock of sheep, quickly knocking down a large swath of blonde and green-haired hoodlums, with their cries of pain filling the city.

But just as Chu Mo was becoming slightly relieved, the black-clothed woman who had vanished at the onset of the chaos suddenly emerged. Holding what seemed to be a sharp object, she took advantage of the turmoil to dive into the crowd. Her petite figure moved with extraordinary agility, and the moment Chu Mo's view was obstructed, a team member had already fallen to the ground.

His eyes suddenly widening, Chu Mo quickly said:

Find more chapters on empire

"Something's not right, send more men."

However, Jiang Tao at his side remained unmoved and calmly said:

"Mr. Chu needn't worry, the woman didn't deal any lethal blows, it's just superficial wounds. To be blunt, it's actually Zhao Weimin and the others who got a bit too arrogant.

If they had fought cautiously instead of charging in so deep and had covered each other's backs, that woman would not have had a chance. This experience might do them some good."

Hearing this, a contemplative look flashed across Chu Mo's eyes, and he said no more.

In just a few minutes, there were fewer than a dozen youths left standing on the other side, while Zhao Weimin's group of five also lay on the ground.

Although they struggled to get up, their exhaustion and injuries meant they couldn't even manage to rise for a while.

The black-clothed woman had her long hair tied behind her head, her delicate cheeks smeared with blood, and as her chest heaved dramatically, her icy eyes were fixed dead on Chu Mo.

At this moment, Jiang Tao beside him suddenly stepped forward.

Then, this man with eyes as big as copper bells and strong as a tiger loosened his neck a bit.

The next moment, slightly bending forward, Jiang Tao charged towards the opposition like a human tank, his tremendous momentum erupting in an instant, moving at a speed that was hard to believe, much to the shock of the remaining youngsters.
