Trillionaire's Slice of Life -
Chapter 771
Chapter 771: Chapter 531: Sima Fanghua_2 Chapter 771: Chapter 531: Sima Fanghua_2 Just at that moment, Chu Mo suddenly realized that Liu Manli’s gaze kept drifting toward the evening glow outside the window.
They were on the eighty-eighth floor of the hotel, and the huge floor-to-ceiling windows offered a better view.
At this height, few buildings could obstruct the view, and almost the entire city of Modu was visible at a glance.
Seeing that Liu Manli seemed to enjoy the scenery, Chu Mo directly instructed Zhan Bingxue in front of him,
“Let’s not go to the private room, it’s stuffy.
Let’s dine by the window over there, where Liu and I can enjoy the night view of Modu!”
Upon hearing this, Zhan Bingxue, who naturally had no objections, immediately nodded and said,
“Alright, Mr.
Chu, I’ll arrange it right away.”
Chu Mo and Liu Manli walked together to the edge of the restaurant’s enormous floor-to-ceiling window.
As they sat down, the western sun had just set, and the fiery orb turned the clouds on the horizon a brilliant red, making the entire sky resemble a flaming blaze.
...
Liu Manli’s eyes showed a trace of amazement as she gently withdrew her gaze.
Looking across at Chu Mo, she said with a hint of something different in her tone,
“See, if I were dining with an ordinary rich second-generation, he would definitely do his utmost to take me to a private room, thinking that being just the two of us is very romantic.
However, he would never notice that I actually prefer watching sunsets like this one.
So, those second-generations are just spoiled brats living off their family’s money, never truly caring about a girl’s thoughts.
In the whole world, the people who can catch my eye can be counted on one hand.
Unfortunately, most of those whom I respect are married and are mostly old geezers…
Hahaha!”
Chu Mo looked at the mature and charming woman in front of him.
Although he had met her several times before, they had always worn masks and merely exchanged greetings formally.
As for now, opening their hearts to each other like the closest of friends, this was a first.
Chu Mo wasn’t sure if her candor was meant to deepen their friendship or if it truly came from the heart, but at this moment, their relationship had indeed grown closer.
At least it was no longer like before, simply an exchange of interests.
“I think it’s just that your standards are too high, Manli.
If you could lower them just a little, I believe you would definitely find true love,” he said.
Chu Mo and Liu Manli talked softly, and at that time, a gentle violin melody suddenly filled the eighty-eighth floor dining hall.
They both turned their heads and then saw a woman in a simple and elegant white dress, playing the violin with deep emotion.
The woman in the white dress moved gracefully, her eyes closed as if absorbed in the world of music.
With the tremble of her arms, waves of enchanting music echoed around them.
Chu Mo enjoyed the performance for a moment before quickly turning his attention back.
Shortly after, the waitstaff brought dish after dish of prepared meals to the table.
Once all the dishes were served, the sole Michelin five-star chef of Tianxiang Garden personally came over to serve them.
Chu Mo greeted the top-notch chef from France.
After the chef respectfully withdrew, Chu Mo, with a smile, picked up his fork and said,
“Let’s taste the chef’s skills.”
Liu Manli across smiled and nodded.
She picked up her knife and fork, delicately cut a piece of tender steak, and upon tasting it, she laughed and said,
“It’s delicious.
I’m tempted to stay here all the time.”
Tianxiang Garden, as the only seven-star international hotel in Modu, was famous for its high spending and was a symbol of status and identity for those who could afford to come and go.
Ordinary people didn’t even have the courage to step in.
As dinner time approached, guests began to trickle into the hall, each one dressed in suits and looking extraordinary.
Naturally, among them, some people noticed Chu Mo and Liu Manli in the corner.
As the rising star of late, Chu Mo was absolutely known by everyone in the high society of Hua Country’s capital.
Liu Manli, even more so, was Hua Country’s richest woman.
Since she took over her family business five years ago, she has always had a spot in the top three of Hua Country’s Forbes rankings.
Naturally, being unmarried and beautiful, she has maintained extremely high popularity.
Liu Manli’s fame was not at all lower than that of the son of the richest man, Zhang Dongdong.
Her photo was often placed on the cover of magazines, and it was not surprising that she was recognized.
Of course, even if people noticed the two of them, no one would deliberately come up to disturb them, as only the top tycoons could come and go in places like this, and both Chu Mo and Liu Manli were obviously not to be trifled with.
As the lady in the white dress finished her performance and was bowing in thanks, a smattering of applause began to sprinkle throughout the restaurant.
Following her departure from the stage, a lively and pleasant piano piece began to play, and everyone looked towards the sound, only to see a handsome young man in a suit playing earnestly in one corner of the hall.
The cheerful music was infectious to the spirit, and amid the beautiful piano notes, the restaurant once again became relaxed and jovial.
“President Chu, the atmosphere here is quite pleasant.
Tianxiang Garden, as one of Hua Country’s few seven-star hotels, must be making a fortune every day!”
Chu Mo put down the cutlery in his hands.
After he picked up a napkin to gently wipe the corners of his mouth, he lifted the wine glass in front of him to clink glasses with the other party, and then he chuckled and said,
“I’m not actually clear on the specifics, as the management of the dozens of five-star hotels in this vicinity, including Tianxiang Garden and Tengwang Pavilion, is handled by Zhan Bingxue.
I don’t get involved in the daily maintenance or personnel scheduling of these hotels.
About the daily turnover of the hotels, that’s also not something I inquire about.
However, it’s true that these hotels have turned profits, and each month’s revenue is managed by Zhan Bingxue herself.
By the way, after acquiring the last five-star hotel in Lujiazui last month, Zhan Bingxue’s assets just broke through two hundred billion!”
Chu Mo sounded quite calm; for him, it didn’t matter whether it was Tianxiang Garden under his feet or Tengwang Pavilion International Hotel worth eighteen billion, both were just a part of his spokesperson’s assets.
Tianxiang Garden was just one of the dozen or so hotels under Zhan Bingxue’s management, and Zhan Bingxue was merely one of his many spokespersons.
Chu Mo was only concerned with the overall direction of development; he really didn’t care about the smaller matters.
Liu Manli, who was slowly tasting the red wine, watched Chu Mo intently with her eyes.
Although she knew that the young man in front of her was not lying, the moment she learned that the assets managed by just one of his spokespersons exceeded two hundred billion, she couldn’t help but feel immensely shocked.
At that moment, the elevator across from them suddenly opened, and as a middle-aged butler received them, three beautiful young women came out hand in hand, talking and laughing.
When Chu Mo saw the newcomers out of the corner of his eye, he couldn’t help but reveal a slight smile.
Liu Manli obviously noticed where Chu Mo’s gaze was directed and followed his glance.
After a moment, realizing that Chu Mo was looking at a strikingly beautiful woman, she teased,
“What, is that lady the one who holds your heart, President Chu?”
Hearing this, Chu Mo pulled his gaze back from the three women and said with a laugh,
“You joke, Miss Liu.
That girl is my neighbor; she lives next door to me.
When I saw her before, she was with friends, so we just greeted each other.
I didn’t expect to run into her dining here.”
As Chu Mo finished speaking, Liu Manli immediately continued jokingly,
“To catch President Chu’s attention, she must be quite the beauty.
Don’t you want to go over and say hello?”
Shaking his head gently without changing his expression, Chu Mo said softly,
“It’s just a casual encounter; we’re not acquainted to that extent, so there’s no need for greetings.”
During the brief exchange between the two, the three women sitting in the middle of the hall evidently noticed Chu Mo.
Two of them were eagerly talking to one particularly attractive woman.
After a moment, the woman named Sima Fanghua got to her feet.
Her gaze lingered on Chu Mo and Liu Manli, and then, taking graceful steps, the elegant woman began to walk towards the duo by the window.
