Trillionaire's Slice of Life

I still have some memory of Chu Liancheng; he was my neighbor, in the same class, and he was my best classmate, but I don\'t remember anything about you. Can you tell me what exactly happened?"

Chu Mo moved to the city with his parents when he was eleven years old, and before that, he had been in his hometown\'s school until the third grade, transferring during the second term of the third grade.

Chu Mo\'s memories of elementary school were mostly about what happened after he transferred to the city. After all, he had just arrived in the city, and everything was new to him, coming from the countryside, so his memories were more vivid.

Conversely, he had almost no memories of the two and a half years he spent in elementary school in his hometown.

Thus, in his mind, he really had no impression of the girl in front of him named Chu Wen.

However, Chu Mo believed that what she said must be true; she could mention the name of the elementary school and Chu Liancheng\'s name, and that made Chu Mo believe her one hundred percent.

Since he was certain everything was true, Chu Mo now really wanted to understand what exactly had happened back then?

The girl in front of him still held resentment towards him, and that really concerned Chu Mo.

"Sir, I apologize if our staff member has caused you any inconvenience. I\'ll have her apologize to you later. However, it\'s still working hours right now. If you have any questions, you can talk in detail after the exhibition is over. Do you think that\'s alright?"

The slightly overweight middle-aged man immediately put on a warm and respectful expression when facing Chu Mo, with his experience, he could naturally tell at a glance that the clothes Chu Mo was wearing and his demeanor were out of the ordinary.

The girl opposite gave herself another complex look and then lowered her head to walk towards the display booth.

This job was very important to her, and it was already improper for her to impulsively step down from the booth just now. She didn\'t dare to truly offend the manager!

There\'s an old saying, "Don\'t hit a smiling face," so naturally, Chu Mo couldn\'t lose his temper at the middle-aged man who was apologizing. With a slight sigh, he walked towards the waiting area to the side!

Without clearing the doubts in his heart, he feared he wouldn\'t be able to buy the car today.

Sitting on the soft sofa in a corner of the lobby, Chu Mo, with his brows still tightly furrowed, tried hard to remember.

The only thing Chu Mo remembered happening at Xiao Chu Elementary School was a scene from when he was in the second grade where he hit his forehead on a stone post on the basketball court. He only recalled the blood streaming down his face, and then Chu Liancheng pulling him towards the nearby clinic.

Even now, there was still a faint scar on Chu Mo\'s forehead.

As for the girl called Chu Wen, even if he racked his brains, he still had no clue.

"Mr. Chu, do you want me to look up that Chu Wen? I have some friends in the force, they\'re all in the investigation business, and they\'re currently doing this kind of work. If you need it, they should be able to find the girl\'s information within two days!"

Shou Bo said softly from beside him, as Chu Mo looked up at the exhibition booth in the distance. Clearly, after the incident just now, the once sexy and charming woman had become much quieter.

Her whole spirit seemed to have dropped a lot, and perhaps influenced by her, the crowd that was originally surrounding the booth had also thinned out.

With a soft sigh and a wave of his hand, Chu Mo casually said:

"No need, she didn\'t lie."

Pausing for a moment, as if something occurred to him, Chu Mo suddenly said:

"Keep in touch with those friends of yours, we might not need them at the moment, but who knows, we might need them sometime in the future. Here\'s what we\'ll do, I\'ll add five thousand RMB to your salary every month from now on, you use that money for expenses, take your friends out to eat, make more contact!"

"Mr. Chu, we\'re all part of the same team now, with a life-and-death friendship, we don\'t care about wining and dining..."

Chu Mo waved his hand dismissively and said directly,

"How you handle your relationship is up to you, but from now on, your salary will increase to twenty thousand per month, let\'s leave it at that!"

With a respectful expression, Shou Bo nodded slightly and said nothing more.

As time ticked by, Chu Mo\'s mind began to fill with memories that stretched beyond primary school.

Middle school, high school, and even university events started to resurface in his mind.

The most memorable one was still the girl who was his deskmate for three years in junior high.

Even now, he vividly remembered the early spring sunshine filtering through the tree branches into the classroom, casting mottled light on her profile.

It was a beautiful yet heart-wrenching scene.

Regrettably, at that time, he didn\'t muster the courage to confess his feelings to her!

...

He didn\'t know how much time had passed. When he came back to his senses, the once-bustling exhibition hall had become sparsely populated, and the exhibit that had been crowded with people was now empty.

His gaze wandered around the entire exhibit, but he couldn\'t seem to spot that graceful figure.

After patiently waiting for about fifteen more minutes, the familiar figure finally appeared before him.

The previously sexy and flirtatious off-shoulder dress was gone. Now, the girl walked towards him dressed in a gray one-shoulder top paired with casual pants.

The one-shoulder design revealed her fair collarbones, and her neck also seemed very slender. The hem was knotted, accentuating her long legs that looked even more refined in crystal sandals. Stay connected through мѵʟ

The girl who approached him was no longer as agitated and conflicted as before but seemed somewhat relaxed and at ease.

"Do you know why I recognized you at a glance? Because you have appeared in my dreams countless times. Because of you, I dropped out of junior high without graduating and followed a girl from my village to struggle in the big city at the age of fourteen.

Up until two years ago, people still called me \'Gap-Toothed\'. It was in the third grade when your little push changed my fate, yet you don\'t even remember me!"

The woman sitting opposite him looked at him intently, and in that moment, Chu Mo could see a deep self-mockery in her eyes.

Chu Mo stopped reflecting, took a deep breath, and said with remorse,

"I\'m truly sorry, I indeed can\'t remember what happened back then. Can you tell me what exactly happened? If possible, I will make compensation for what I\'ve done."

As he finished speaking, the girl in front of him shook her head slightly, and with a faint smile and a trace of scorn, she said softly,

"What\'s there to say... In the first half of third grade, just before the summer vacation, during recess, I was playing shuttlecock in the hallway with my classmates, when you and Chu Liancheng were running around like maniacs.

When you got to me, you couldn\'t stop in time and pushed me over. You just said \'sorry\', then got up and ran off. I lost a tooth, a front tooth...

I didn\'t even dare to tell the teacher. I thought the tooth would grow back, but actually, front teeth don\'t grow back. At that time, my family was so poor we hardly had enough to eat, who would care about a little girl losing a tooth...

In junior high, I was ridiculed as \'gap-toothed\', and I couldn\'t take the blow to my self-esteem. So, I dropped out and came to this big city to wash dishes, where I was called \'Gap-Toothed\' for five years.

Five years later, I got my first tooth replacement, and two years ago I had dental cosmetic repair, so now it doesn\'t show anymore.

So, how will you compensate for the harm that little girl has suffered all these years?"
