Trillionaire's Slice of Life

In the restaurant, many music-loving guests would stop what they were doing and listened intently to the performance of the lady in the red dress.

In this upscale restaurant where the per capita consumption was no less than three thousand RMB, almost all the diners were elites without exception, and among them, there were naturally many handsome men and beautiful women.

Nestled in a corner of the restaurant was an incredibly beautiful woman in a light blue linen slip dress, with delicate, fair skin that seemed to glow under the lights. She giggled charmingly, and her striking beauty, rating ninety-three points, was even top-tier in this setting.

She gently tucked a wayward strand of long hair behind her ear, and perhaps it was because she had been drinking red wine, at that moment Ling Yue raised her glass, her beautiful cheeks flushed with an alluring red, and she sighed softly,

"Chu Mo, I really can\'t figure you out anymore. I remember in school, you always liked to sit in the most corner spot of the classroom with your notebook, keeping to yourself and not keen on talking. It was rare to see you interact with classmates.

And then there\'s now, still always dressed in those cheap clothes... Tell me, were you afraid of being discovered as a rich second generation back then, so you deliberately hid your brilliance?"

Savoring the delicate steak in front of him, the rich flavor spreading in his mouth, he heard her words and gently put down his knife and fork, his mind unconsciously drifting back to his college years...

Back then, his introverted nature indeed made it hard for him to communicate with others...!

He lifted his wine glass, clinked it with hers, and only after swallowing the steak mixed with the red wine in his mouth, did he wipe the corner of his mouth and Chu Mo finally remarked with a sense of reflection,

"I was indeed a bit introverted back then, but it\'s surprising that you, the great campus beauty, took notice of me. If I\'m not mistaken, we only exchanged three sentences in four years of college!

Even now, I can still remember every expression you made when you said those words!"

Ling Yue\'s face, already adorned with a faint blush, quickly turned crimson, extending even to her small and adorable ears.

She bit her attractive red lips gently, and the radiantly beautiful woman rolled her eyes flirtatiously, her tone carrying a hint of coquettishness,

"It\'s your own fault for not taking the initiative. You can\'t always expect a girl to... you know,"

Her demure voice triggered a surge of warmth in Chu Mo\'s heart, and as he saw the blossoming, flower-like face of the woman opposite him, he instinctively bowed slightly.

Even if he was slow to catch on, Chu Mo realized that this goddess, who occupied the dreams of countless men, seemed to have taken an interest in him as well.

When did his charm become so irresistible?

But as he looked around at the luxurious setting, he suddenly returned to reality with a wry smile and shook his head. Chu Mo then realized it wasn\'t that his charm had grown, but rather the allure of money was simply too tempting.

"Are you free tonight? I\'d like to talk to you about the Black Gold Card. I\'m completely clueless about these things, so you, my old classmate, really need to educate me more!"

The dazzling eyes locked onto the man opposite her, and Ling Yue\'s heartbeat quickened again as she felt a bit dazed.

He had just agreed to procure a gold card for her, and now he wanted to discuss the Black Gold Card with her tonight. Clearly, he was looking to develop something more with her.

In her heart, Chu Mo was after all a classmate of hers; although she hadn\'t paid much attention to him during their university days, four years of being together meant Ling Yue knew that the man before her was at least not the flirtatious playboy type.

He was considered honest and kind, and with a net worth of tens of billions, such qualities made her heart flutter. To say she wasn\'t moved would mean her brain was malfunctioning.

However, if she agreed immediately, wouldn\'t that seem too easy?

It would be as if she was with him only for his money... In that case, she would probably hold no position in his heart in the future.

A glint flashed in her brilliant eyes, and even her previously restless heart calmed down quite a bit. Raising her glass, Ling Yue softly said,

"Regarding the Black Gold Card matter, I can\'t make the decision alone; I\'ll have to consult with the sub-branch manager later!"

"No rush!"

Was there still impatience?

Chu Mo gave a light wave of his hand, his previously restless mood settling down as well. He clinked glasses with her, finished the last drop of his drink, and stood up with a smile:

"This meal is on me, don\'t say I\'m being chauvinistic; when dining with a lady, I really don\'t have the habit of letting the woman pay. You need to understand a man\'s pride!"

This time, Ling Yue didn\'t persist. Standing up as well, she said with a smile:

"Then I\'ll treat you next time. You can\'t fight with me over the bill then."

Chu Mo just smiled and didn\'t respond.

They arrived at the front desk, where Chu Mo handed his bank card to the attendant, entered his PIN, and, amidst the cashier\'s sweet smile, the two walked out of the restaurant side by side.

Because they had arrived early, even after a leisurely dinner, it was only just seven o\'clock.

He purposefully looked at the red sports car that had been parked in front of the restaurant when they arrived, but regrettably, the spot was now occupied by a white BMW sedan.

There was a slight sense of regret in his heart, and at this moment, Ling Yue, whose attention was always on Chu Mo, said with a smile:

"Do you really like that Lamborghini? It\'s a car worth over a hundred million, and only big bosses with deep pockets like you are qualified to own it, right? But there are only three Lamborghini Venenos worldwide; even with money, it\'s hard to get your hands on one!"

Chu Mo shook his head slightly, his gaze sweeping over the entire parking lot. Indeed, there were luxury cars gathered around, and he even spotted a cool Ferrari parked not too far away.

Here, Ling Yue\'s Audi A4, with a price tag of around 400,000, really didn\'t stand out.

"It\'s not that I\'m particularly interested in the Veneno, it\'s just that I thought the car from earlier looked cool. I don\'t know much about cars. To me, regardless of the brand, as long as it looks pleasing to the eye and can move me, that\'s enough.

Of course, the price can\'t be too low. If that Veneno is worth ninety million… then I should get one worth a hundred million, right? I\'ll go to the auto city tomorrow and see if there\'s a suitable one."

Chu Mo was telling the truth; he really didn\'t know much about cars. Previously, his greatest ability was just to make enough to eat and barely get by in this city. After three years post-graduation, he only had ten thousand RMB in savings. With such conditions, what did he have to look at cars with?

As for now, since he had money, he naturally had to learn to enjoy it. A bank card with no spending limit made the concept of money somewhat meaningless to Chu Mo. A hundred million was just a "1" followed by eight zeros, right?

"You\'re going to pick up a car tomorrow? How about I come along with an old classmate to take a look?"

Ling Yue stood with her hands clasped behind her back, wearing an intoxicating smile, looking as endearing as the girl next door.

A glint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but Chu Mo replied jokingly with a light breath:

"Tomorrow is not a day off. If we wait for you to get off work before going, the auto city will be closed. Your time as a big manager is very precious; I won\'t bother you. You should also help me inquire about the Black Gold Card matter. Let\'s leave it at that for today. We\'ll talk more when we have time!"

The Audi\'s headlights came on. Ling Yue retrieved her notebook and a few paper bags from the passenger seat, closed the car door, and as Chu Mo\'s figure walked away, she sat quietly in the driver\'s seat waiting for her ride-share, her bright eyes turning somewhat dim.

Just like that, she missed her chance?

A high-quality, gentle, non-promiscuous, top-tier rich second generation who was very fond of her… Did she just let him slip through her fingers because of something she said?

I was just being coy to not seem too superficial; I wasn\'t refusing!

...

What a jerk!
