Trillionaire's Slice of Life-Chapter 316 - 223: The Second Agent (Begging for Subscriptions)

Chapter 316: Chapter 223: The Second Agent (Begging for Subscriptions)

“Chu… Sir, your hair is a bit prickly, it’s so itchy!”

Qiu Shui’s legs were very fair and equally well-proportioned. She wasn’t the type to solely chase after a delicate and frail appearance; instead, her body had a more substantial feel. So, when her cheeks rested on the soft thighs, it didn’t feel uncomfortable; on the contrary, there was a cool, smooth sensation.

This feeling was far from the comfort that the back of a chair or a soft sofa could provide.

“Is this… what they call a knee pillow?!”

Chu Mo gently touched his face. For the first time in his twenty-five years of life, he was enjoying this kind of treatment. His heartbeat quickened slightly, and when he glanced upwards, he saw Qiu Shui’s cheeks, slightly flushed with a rosy hue, right in front of him.

“Don’t say it out loud… Even I would feel shy, and also, don’t look this way. Turn around and close your eyes, please!!!”

With the cool and delicate fingers slightly pressing on his own cheek, Chu Mo’s briefly touched cheek returned to its resting place. As she gently stroked her forehead with her fingers, a sudden sense of trust, intimacy, warmth, and peace emerged from within.

It was a strange feeling. Before this, Chu Mo had only shared a fleeting night with Liang Bing on a yacht, after which they had parted ways, with little interaction in between.

In Chu Mo’s mind, there was no emotional foundation between him and Qiu Shui; their relationship seemed more like one of mutual benefit.

Therefore, in the past, Chu Mo had never taken the initiative to contact this mature woman two years his senior, nor had he ever imagined being responsible for her in any way.

The ten million he had transferred to her a month ago seemed more like a settlement for that night.

But now, just from a single knee pillow, Chu Mo’s heart for the first time acknowledged the other person. It was a wonderful experience; it seemed that this small contact had brought the two of them closer.

“I thought… you wouldn’t be the shy type!”

Chu Mo took a deep breath, relaxed his brows, and completely let himself unwind. As he closed his eyes, a faint scent wafted to his nose.

It was the light fragrance emanating from Qiu Shui by his side.

“Mr. Chu, do you think of me as a casual girl? That I wouldn’t be shy about doing these things?… It’s not surprising that you think that way. After all, we female attendants are here to serve, and with how forward I was on the yacht last time, it’s not odd for you to have that impression…

However, in reality, those tycoons at Tianxiang Garden have never really done anything to us. Those who can come to the ninety-fifth floor are all billionaires with fortunes in the hundreds of billions. In the whole of Magic City, there are only five such people, and all of them are old men over fifty, even most are in their seventies or eighties, and they are mostly like President Cao Renyi, fully focused on their work, seldom visiting Tianxiang Garden. Even the very few who do come from time to time, it’s mostly to entertain friends, so…

Apart from a boyfriend I dated in college, I’ve actually never taken the initiative with any man!”

“Hmm!”

Chu Mo responded softly, knowing that Qiu Shui was explaining herself to him because she cared about what he thought.

If it were someone she didn’t care about, she probably wouldn’t even bother to take a second look.

“This is my first time offering a knee pillow to anyone! Just this once!”

Suddenly, a tickling breath came close to his ear. Qiu Shui, with her charming face, leaned towards him, breathing near his ear, and spoke in a coy voice that immediately gave Chu Mo a ticklish sensation at the bottom of his heart.

And then, Qiu Shui helped him sit up, the blush still on her cheeks as she spoke softly:

“They are here!”

As Chu Mo gently stood up and turned his gaze towards the window, Liang Bing, accompanied by Xia Xue and another girl, was walking over from the opposite side of the small river.

Chu Mo caught a glimpse of Qiu Shui by his side straightening her wrinkled skirt, her snow-white thighs once again covered, and he suddenly spoke:

“I have always lacked a personal secretary by my side. Previously, this position was held by the maid Qin Zixuan, but after she began managing Shi Yuan Entertainment, the position has been vacant. How about you stay by my side and become my personal secretary?”

As Chu Mo’s calm words fell, Qiu Shui beside him gently lowered her head, adjusted her sitting position, then turned her cheek toward him and said seriously:

“If Mr. Chu would like me to be your personal secretary, I will do it. However, my true desire is to pursue a career of my own.”

Chu Mo hesitated for a moment. Although he could keep the alluring woman beside him with just a word, since she wasn’t inclined towards it, he wouldn’t insist on keeping her.

The three women outside the car came closer, and Chu Mo, breathing lightly, nodded:

“Do you have a recommendation? Among the eight of you, Liang Bing is in charge of the club, Ru Yu is still in school, and you don’t want to be my personal secretary. Of the remaining five, whom do you think is most suitable for the position?”

Qiu Shui tilted her head slightly, her gaze also passing through the car window and settling on three girls outside. Then, with a sweet smile, she said:

“Xia Xue is probably the most appropriate! You don’t know, but in our private chats, she mentioned that she really admires you… Otherwise, she wouldn’t have taken the initiative to protect you from drinking too much!”

Chu Mo was somewhat surprised by this answer, but he didn’t give it much thought. After giving Qiu Shui a slight nod, Chu Mo said indifferently:

“Think it through, consider what you really want to do, and once you have clarity, come to me!”

In Qiu Shui’s face of delight, Chu Mo pushed open the car door. After he stepped out, he saw Xia Xue looking pale. The lively spirit of the girl with the curved willow eyebrows seemed to have wilted, no longer radiating the vitality she previously had.

“Feeling better?”

Chu Mo asked softly, but it was Liang Bing who interjected:

“Xia Xue can’t drink. At our gatherings, she would never touch a drop of alcohol. Drinking so much so suddenly this time, she’ll be suffering when she gets back!”

With a soft sigh, Chu Mo nodded. He opened the car door, extended a hand to help the heavily breathing Xia Xue into the vehicle, and told Qiu Shui inside the car to take good care of her. After closing the door, Chu Mo said:

“Qiu Shui and Xia Xue will stay, you don’t go either. Just pick any four to go upstairs and serve the bride for a while. If those people aren’t too unreasonable, just deal with them casually, but if someone makes too much of a fuss in the bridal chamber, call me and I’ll speak to them.”

“Yes, Mr. Chu!”

Following Chu Mo’s instructions, Liang Bing immediately turned to the several cars behind. The bridesmaids who had been inside the cars all came out. Liang Bing directly chose four bridesmaids and after issuing a few stern instructions, they, with two black-clad bodyguards following close behind for protection, headed towards the ever-noisy building.

Glancing at his wristwatch, it was just nine o’clock. The time set for the bride to leave was fifty-eight minutes past nine, leaving nearly an hour of free time.

Chu Mo didn’t feel like joining the hustle upstairs at this moment. He stepped lightly and began to stroll aimlessly.

The air in the suburbs was still relatively fresh. The planning here was good; roads were clear and surrounded by three-story buildings. Chu Mo walked along the sparsely populated road, stretching his arms when suddenly the phone in his pocket vibrated.

Thinking it was his buddy Li Fei calling with some urgent matter about the wedding, he immediately took out his phone. Upon seeing the caller ID, however, he frowned slightly—it wasn’t Li Fei.

After picking up the call, he heard a slightly unfamiliar voice:

“Mr. Chu, this is Dong Xun’er from the Financial Mansion. I’m currently with Miss Lin Ling’er of the Lin family, discussing with the Jiangnan Lin and Li families about the deal concerning Jinmao Mansion, the tallest building in Modu!”

At these words, Chu Mo’s mind took a moment to catch up, his head filled with thoughts of his friend Li Fei’s wedding. It took a moment for him to register who was on the other end of the line.

Turning to look back at the long wedding motorcade and inhaling deeply, Chu Mo replied in a calm tone:

“What’s the matter, you speak, I’m listening.”

“Mr. Chu, I really shouldn’t trouble you with this, but I’ve just met with the Li family’s representative and they asked if I had full authorization to represent you. Without your authorization, I can’t meet with the Li family head… Without that, there’s no way to negotiate the acquisition of Jinmao Mansion! So…!”

Despite the caution and hesitation in her words, Chu Mo’s mind conjured an image of her capable and assertive demeanor.

A glimmer appeared in his eyes, and Chu Mo suddenly asked:

“Did you just say, Miss Lin Ling’er of the Modu Lin family is with you?”

“Yes, Mr. Chu. I spent half the night discussing with Miss Lin Ling’er, and she is willing to help me speak to the Li family!”

The corners of Chu Mo’s mouth curled up slightly, admiring Dong Xun’er’s efficiency in handling matters.

Liang Bing had only introduced her to Miss Lin Ling’er yesterday, and today Lin Ling’er accompanied her to the Li family in Jiangnan. Her eloquence and competence were indeed formidable.

Suddenly curious to see just how far this woman named Dong Xun’er could go, Chu Mo, without much hesitation and with the corners of his mouth still lifted, said indifferently:

“Regarding the acquisition of the three tallest buildings in Modu, you have my full authorization to negotiate. I grant you all the permissions you need, go ahead and do it!”

“Thank you for your trust, Mr. Chu. Then… Mr. Chu, wait for my good news!”
