Trillionaire's Slice of Life

Chapter 70: Chapter 068: Invitation

Chu Mo was no chaste Liuxia Hui.

Before this, the reason he had been able to stick to his principles was purely because of a small obsession he held deep in his heart.

Find more adventures on M-V-L

Put bluntly, in the end it all came down to a single thought: he believed it was his first time, so he hoped to find a girl who also had her first time.

The girl before him, with a stunning figure and a gorgeous face, perfectly met his criteria.

Wearing a knee-length pure white dress with a light blue sash cinching her slender waist, her tall figure, about one seventy-two in height, coupled with the five-centimeter stiletto sandals she wore, brought her right up to Chu Mo's nose.

The girl named Tao Yun had long hair that reached her waist, and because of her slightly immature and tender cheeks, it was easy for one to feel a desire to protect her.

However, if you added her devilish figure which could make the vast majority of girls feel inferior, it was undeniable that the girl before him was a stunning beauty who could enchant countless men.

In the ancient-styled study, the unique aroma of the books on the shelves mingled with the girl's subtle fragrance, not overpowering, offering a blissful sensation as if one were in the fields.

The girl, with a trace of nervousness, tension, and a hint of anticipation in her eyes, slightly bowed her head, a strand of hair falling gently in front of her forehead.

Chu Mo, sitting quietly in the soft chair opposite the girl, did not immediately answer, but was quietly thinking about something.

Each to get what they need…

And then to not interfere with each other, going our separate ways?

Is this really what I want?

Leaning lazily in the soft chair, his gaze rested on the girl's tender cheeks, and after a moment, Chu Mo gently closed his eyes.

He felt something was amiss; there wasn't the thrill or joy of impending gain in his heart, but rather a sense of loss and lament.

And just as Chu Mo was silent for a moment, his phone suddenly vibrated. Upon checking, it was a message from Zhan Bingxue.

"Those old foxes have conceded, the third-party financial oversight proposal has passed; I can nominate three people for the board, and as long as it does not involve principle issues, the company will be led by me!

Mr. Chu, thank you for your trust."

A slight smile played upon his lips; from the time Lin Hongqiang called him to now, receiving the message had been a mere two and a half hours, and in the end, the old foxes had chosen to back down.

The lingering frustration in his heart immediately vanished, and Chu Mo, feeling much more relaxed, was about to put away his phone when the ringtone sounded again.

This time it was the chairman of Fuli Industry Group, Sun Shangwu, who called. With a net worth of thirty-two point six billion, ranked sixty-first on the Forbes list, he was the shareholder with the most shares in Bafang International Hotel after Chu Mo.

If it weren't for the message from Zhan Bingxue just now informing Chu Mo of their concession, he would have just hung up.

But now that the four old foxes had compromised, basic courtesy was still necessary.

He pressed the answer button gently, and after a moment, Sun Shangwu's hearty and rough voice came through the phone.

"Brother Chu, are you free to sit down together tonight? You surely haven't experienced the Seasons Pavilion on the Huangpu River. It's membership-only, and unless there are more than three members to introduce someone, it doesn't serve the public.

The Seasons Pavilion has its unique features, with a different menu each day, and a very special reservation method: we only inform how many people there are today, without knowing any other customers.

The menu is decided by the restaurant based on seasonal ingredients, and each table gets a different set of dishes every day. Tonight, I'll introduce a VIP to you, and we'll enjoy the night view on The Bund together."

The hearty voice carried no hint of dissatisfaction, as if the probing and subsequent retreat concerning the Bafang International Hotel had never happened.

Chu Mo, holding the phone, was somewhat hesitant.

In the evening, Chu Wen and her best friend Zhao Shuangshuang were going to have dinner with him, and he was thinking of making it up to Chu Wen in some way.

However, regarding Sun Shangwu, the other four old foxes had just stepped back. If he outright refused now, might the other party overthink it?

Just as Chu Mo hesitated for a moment, Sun Shangwu's voice came through the phone again:

"Brother, tonight we'll just dine, no business talk. The matter at Bafang International isn't even on my radar, so tonight it will just be me.

I haven't invited Lin Hongqiang, Li Tianming, or those other guys, and by the way, the VIP I'm introducing to you tonight is none other than Dean Lu from Fudan University, a prominent scholar of our Hua Country.

Right, brother, you can bring a female companion. Fine wine and a beautiful lady, let's enjoy the night view of The Bund together."

Upon hearing this, without hesitation and with a light breath, Chu Mo casually said:

"Then, President Sun, I'll see you this evening."

After hanging up the phone, he turned his gaze back to Tao Yun in front of him. At this moment, Chu Mo, no longer entangled or hesitant, suddenly called out softly.

"Danny!"

The voice was not loud, just enough to ensure that the maid waiting at the third-floor staircase could hear him, and then within a moment, a middle-aged man in a light blue suit had arrived before him, bowing respectfully.

"Sir, what can I do for you?"

"Have the head maid accompany this lady to choose an evening gown. I will be attending an important dinner with her tonight. Tell Shou Bo to pick a bodyguard to escort us in the Bentley, and remember to come back before five-thirty."

As his command fell, he looked at the girl beside him who wore a stunned expression. Chu Mo casually said:

"Didn't you want to experience my life? Tonight, I'll take you to a nice place. Go on, let them help you pick out a dress. After dinner, if you still insist on your current way of thinking, I will give you the answer you want."

The girl with complex emotions descended the stairs accompanied by the butler.

The study once more became quiet and deserted, but as he took a deep breath, it seemed as if he could still smell a faint lingering fragrance at the tip of his nose.

Opening the laptop in front of him, Chu Mo's hands rested on the keyboard. His eyes narrowed slightly as his fingers tapped lightly across the keys, and amidst the crisp tapping sounds, words continuously appeared on the screen.

Once Chu Mo entered his work zone, he became focused and serious, completely undisturbed by anything external.

Time swiftly passed, from around noon until the evening. When Chu Mo stopped typing, the screen in front of him was filled with dense text.

After reading through once and just about to edit, suddenly light footsteps came from behind him.

Turning around, he saw the noble and fashionable silhouette of Tao Yun.

The exquisite and dreamy off-white gown, with its high waistline and long skirt, made the girl look magnificent and elegant.

The slight A-line skirt perfectly showcased her shoulder and chest lines, and on her long, snow-white neck, she wore a crystal necklace, with a delicate ladies' watch adorning her slender, rosy wrist.

At this moment, Tao Yun was no longer just a young model; she was imbued with the luxurious aura of nobility.

The beauty from the University of Science and Technology, with her high looks and devilish figure, had an infinitely charming look in her eyes and a touchingly beautiful demeanor.

Glancing at his watch, it was five-fifteen. Any later and they might hit traffic.

Without further delay, he saved the document and closed the laptop. Chu Mo, after stretching languidly, smiled and said:

"Huangpu River by night, let's go take it in together!"
