Trillionaire's Slice of Life

Chu Mo got out of the car, closely followed by Jiang Tao at his side. Although Fan Gao in the passenger seat was pale, by now, he had bravely endured the pain and firmly stood by Chu Mo's side. This was the busiest downtown area of Zhongzhou City, and despite it being 10:30 PM, the surroundings were still bustling with people and traffic. When a dozen pricey supercars lined up and parked around, they naturally drew quite a bit of attention. In just a moment, many people had stopped in their tracks. Standing opposite Chu Mo was none other than the eldest young master of the Liu family of Zhongzhou, Liu Mingfei, who had inherited all of Liu Peng's attributes: a large nose, a portly figure, and a pair of triangular eyes that gave off a vicious look. Even though his appearance was unremarkable, Liu Mingfei was, after all, the direct heir of the Liu family of Zhongzhou, and the most highly regarded successor by the Family Head, naturally surrounded by countless lackeys. Those grouped around Liu Mingfei were the second and third generations from all over Zhongzhou City, whose families depended on the Liu family for their livelihood. Naturally, they all had to play to the tune of the big young master Liu. "Young Master Chu, it seems we meet again so soon after our parting in Xiangjiang. I hope you've been well, Mr. Chu!" The rotund Liu Mingfei approached Chu Mo with a smile plastered across his face, his left arm around a fairly attractive woman while his right hand was pocketed. His whole demeanor was swaggering and if it wasn't for the knowledge that the man before them was the eldest young master of the Liu family, many would have mistaken him for a mere street thug. Chu Mo eyed the dozens of arrogant second and third-generation youngsters opposite him. If this were in Magic Capital, he wouldn't even need to lift a finger; simply by declaring his identity, he suspected these people would turn tail and flee in embarrassment. Unfortunately for him, this was Zhongzhou, where his influence had yet to spread. The rich offspring before him were all led by Liu Mingfei, and they didn't have to regard him at all. In the end, Chu Mo's gaze settled on the corpulent young man before him. He took a deep breath and then spoke in an even tone: "Does your father know what you're doing, Young Master Liu? I was just speaking amicably with Liu Peng. Treating a guest this way doesn't seem quite proper, does it?" Liu Mingfei, whose expression turned icy, narrowed his eyes ever so slightly. Those familiar with him knew that he only showed that expression when he was extremely angry. Before Liu Mingfei could speak, one of the red-haired, mohawked youths by his side stepped forward and snapped: "What the hell are you, to tell Young Master Liu how to handle things? Did you even bother to find out what his status is in Zhongzhou City?" The mohawked youth was clearly one of Liu Mingfei's lackeys, his face full of arrogance as he pointed at Chu Mo's nose and cursed. Chu Mo's expression changed slightly. The last time someone had pointed at his nose and cursed him was a few months ago at a race track in Magic Capital. On that occasion, a young man named Fei Gang had provoked him, only to end up utterly ruined. Chu Mo glanced casually at the mohawked youth and replied with a slight nod: "Believe me, the fiercer you shout now, the more you will regret your stupidity today in the future." After saying this, Chu Mo couldn't care less about confronting the forward mohawked youth. He shifted his gaze back to Liu Mingfei across from him and spoke lightly: "Young Master Liu, we're both busy men, so let's not waste each other's time. Whatever you have to say, say it to my face, and I, Chu Mo, will take it." "Hmph!" A cold snort, a slight curl of his lips, and an air that turned three degrees colder, Liu Mingfei finally began to speak slowly: "Chu Mo, I remember, last time in Xiangjiang, you were quite arrogant. Let's not even mention the Arabian horse, Deng Yun'er, Miss Deng, has also joined your harem team, hasn't she?" Hearing this, Chu Mo frowned slightly, knowing that Deng Yun'er had joined his Shiyuan Entertainment Company to escape retaliation from this very Liu Ming. With Chu Mo's protection, the Liu family couldn't touch her. But to be honest, Chu Mo had never laid a finger on Deng Yun'er from the beginning to the end. In his eyes, she was just an employee of his company. As for including her in his harem, he had never considered it. Chu Mo knew that he couldn't clarify things with this Liu Ming and he couldn't be bothered to explain, his voice tinged with impatience: "Liu Ming, I'll say it again, we're both busy people. If you have something to say, say it. If not, then please have your people step aside at once!" "Chu Mo really does juggle myriad affairs! Okay then, I won't disturb Chu Mo in the slightest, as long as you fire Deng Yun'er," said Liu Mingfei, with a sleazy smile on his face, reminiscent of a pig. His hands were carelessly wandering over a young girl beside him, clearly indicating that once Chu Mo fired Deng Yun'er and she lost his protection, as a top star in Hua Country, she would soon fall into the clutches of this man, potentially facing a dire end. Although Chu Mo had no interest in Deng Yun'er, he wouldn't just hand her over to the wolf's den. He took a deep breath and flatly refused: "Liu Ming, I give you face by addressing you as Liu Ming. If I didn't give you face, you'd be nothing in front of me, you got that?" As soon as Chu Mo finished speaking, the cocky young man standing in front of Liu Mingfei immediately turned hostile. While cursing, he rushed at Chu Mo with his fists swinging. Unfortunately for the young man, he was no better than a kitten in a fight, good only for intimidating the average person, but completely outmatched in front of a professional. So, when he charged at Chu Mo with a battle cry, the two-meter-tall Jiang Tao stepped in front of Chu Mo. The leader of the detective agency and also Chu Mo's strongest force, Jiang Tao grabbed the incoming fist of the cocky youth and with just a slight exertion of force, the young man let out a scream akin to a pig being slaughtered. Seeing their companion subdued, the dozens of youths around them started causing a commotion, with several hot-blooded young masters clamoring to take action. However, at this moment, Chu Mo suddenly raised his hand to stop Jiang Tao. He turned his attention to a few cars nearby, and after his gaze swept over the dozen or so cheongsam-clad female bodyguards inside, he spoke lightly: "If I remember correctly, Liu Peng once said that you twelve would serve as my servants from now on. As servants, when your master is in trouble, do you just stand by and watch the show?" After Chu Mo's words, the female bodyguards in the car were silent for a moment. Then the sound of car doors opening was heard. Next, twelve cheongsam-clad women with graceful figures got out of the cars and all of them, who were not lacking in strength, lined up behind Chu Mo. Seeing these twelve individuals, Liu Mingfei, who originally had a gloomy expression, suddenly looked astonished. He said incredulously: "The Twelve Golden Phoenixes? You are the elite secretly trained by our Liu family, meant to serve the future Family Head. Why are you with that man?"
