Trillionaire's Slice of Life

Situ Lichun, realizing something was amiss about herself, immediately lowered her head, the whole of her being careful and tentative.

Chu Mo merely glanced at her, then quickly looked away. He knew that the big star next to him was just anxious and not truly disrespectful. After all, anyone would feel uncomfortable watching their deceased relative being carelessly handled by a child.

Taking a gentle breath, Chu Mo didn't want Situ Lichun by his side to get the wrong idea. After all, a small figure like Situ Lichun wasn't a big deal, but he still needed to consider the face of Ren Wenxuan, the chairman of Shangyuan Entertainment.

Adjusting his glasses lightly, his eyes still fixed on Chu Mo opposite him, he spoke slowly,

"That little girl is called Qin Lan. Although she looks just like a child, in fact, she might be older than your grandma. She has cultivated a number of marvelous cultivation techniques, which can reverse aging. So, though she looks around eleven or twelve years old, in reality, she is a bona fide Great Grandmaster.

An SS-level expert. As for why she is doing this, if you look at her hands carefully, do you notice anything?"

Qin Lan, who had kept her head lowered, hurriedly raised it upon hearing Chu Mo's words. Her beautiful eyes then stared straight at the little girl's hands across from her. Indeed, upon closer inspection, she noticed a faint halo continuously present in the palm of the doll-like girl.

Her eyes suddenly widened in shock. At that moment, Situ Lichun's body began to tremble violently again, her face full of disbelief as she looked at Chu Mo. But this time, the big star had a thick layer of caution in her eyes as she said,

"That… Mr. Chu, there's hope for my grandpa, isn't there? You can resurrect my grandpa, can't you?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Mo slightly frowned, his gaze piercing into the laboratory opposite him and said in an even tone,

"You should know the situation of Elder Situ better than anyone. If it weren't for the efforts of many top scientists here, he would have had no chance of holding on until now. In your grandfather's condition, no one dares to guarantee anything. Out there, he would have already been sent to the morgue. As for whether we can save him or not, who can assure you?

If you think there's still hope for your grandfather, you're free to take him away now; no one will stop you."

Chu Mo's voice was a bit cold, which immediately awakened Situ Lichun, who dared not say any more and cautiously stood behind Chu Mo.

Inside the lab, as Qin Lan continued to stimulate the old man's body with Innate True Qi, the previously blocked meridians were gradually cleared by Qin Lan's powerful True Qi flow. It was obvious that Qin Lan was now exerting all her strength, as her little face had turned ghostly pale, clearly showing that such continuous expenditure of Innate True Qi was an extremely taxing task for her.

However, at that moment, Qin Lan had not given up. She continued to nourish the old man's body with her invaluable Innate True Qi time and again. After a few minutes, just when the top scientists around were beginning to lose patience and were about to leave, the previously silent instruments suddenly emitted a sharp alarm.

In the next moment, with the patient's heart on the sickbed slowly beginning to beat again, the entire laboratory saw the dozen top scientists staring in disbelief at the old man on the bed.

Then, the white-haired elder at the forefront quickly approached the bedside. He touched the patient over and over again, and when he confirmed that the pulse had resumed beating, this respected elderly Caucasian kept shaking his head, saying,

"Miracle... this is truly a miracle...!"

At that time, the extremely pale Qin Lan finally stopped her actions. As the Innate True Qi in her hands slowly vanished, she also took a deep sigh of relief.

The old man on the sickbed was brought back from the brink of death, and the various instruments in the lab became useful again. At that moment, Qin Lan suddenly turned her head and gently blinked at Chu Mo, who was in the observation hall on the other side, a look of immense relief on her face.

"He's alive… my grandpa is saved…! Mr. Chu, thank you. Really, thank you so much."

Situ Lichun watched everything unfold before her eyes, and on seeing the instruments start working again, she once more burst into tears.

At that moment, Situ Lichun bowed deeply to Chu Mo and then, unable to contain herself any longer, she started running toward the exit.

Chu Mo stood still for a moment. Yang Xuan, who had already left, quickly returned to his side, clearly out of breath,—evidently, she had rushed over as soon as she got the news.

"Mr. Chu, how are things?"

Yang Xuan's face betrayed excited and anxious expressions.

Chu Mo gently turned his head, his gaze fixed on Yang Xuan in front of him, as he slowly spoke up,

"We've succeeded, notify the guests, have them come back to the observation room, and witness the moment of miracle together."

Yang Xuan, with excitement brimming in his eyes, nodded vigorously.

At that moment, Chu Mo turned and took a step forward, exiting the observation hall. As soon as he arrived back in the corridor, he spotted a somewhat haggard small figure.

At this instant, Qin Lan looked pale, her originally plump cheeks utterly devoid of color. Chu Mo took the initiative to approach the young girl and said with utmost seriousness,

"Miss Qin, you've really worked hard this time."

The young girl before him slightly curled her lips into a smile, tilting her head as she said with a slightly weary voice,

"Is a thank you all there is?"

Hearing this, Chu Mo was momentarily taken aback, but upon seeing her exhausted appearance, he quickly responded,

"Miss Qin, feel free to ask for anything. As long as it's within my power, I will do my utmost."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the young girl's body swayed gently, and in the next instant, under Chu Mo's watchful eyes, she collapsed softly to the ground.

Great Grandmaster Lei Ting appeared beside them at some unknown time. The tall man checked Qin Lan's body and then explained to Chu Mo,

"Mr. Chu, Miss Qin has exhausted her True Qi excessively, causing her to faint. However, there's no need to worry excessively; she should recover in, at most, ten days to half a month. The only issue is that Miss Qin has depleted her essence this time, and returning to her peak condition might not be so easy."

After Lei Ting spoke, he prepared to help Qin Lan up, but Chu Mo waved a hand to stop him. Chu Mo directly crouched down, scooped the young girl up into his arms, and then carried her down the corridor personally.

Qin Lan was petite and light, so for Chu Mo, who was 1.82 meters tall, holding her required no effort at all.

Soon, they arrived at the private elevator. The elevator doors opened; this time it was not empty but filled with a dozen people disembarking—naturally, these were the elite patrons who had returned.

Seeing Chu Mo holding a little girl in his arms, the top tycoons in front paused in mild surprise. However, it was only a momentary lapse before everyone regained their composure, nodding and greeting Chu Mo, then swiftly heading towards the observation room.

They had just received news that Grandmaster Situ had regained his heartbeat, proving the Longevity Pill number one was not without effect, but rather had a very obvious result.

Having heard this news, these elite patrons couldn't wait to arrive, naturally deeming seeing believing—they wanted to verify the news themselves.

As the group of elite patrons brushed past Chu Mo, once they had left, Chu Mo also got into the professional elevator, with Great Grandmaster Lei Ting personally pushing the button for him. Chu Mo entered with Qin Lan in his arms, and the high-speed elevator quickly ascended.

Reaching the VIP rest area on the eightieth floor, as soon as the elevator doors opened, one of the three club giants, Liang Bing, appeared in front of him.

Chu Mo handed the young girl in his arms to Liang Bing and earnestly instructed,

"Take good care of her!"
