Trillionaire's Slice of Life-Chapter 1146 - 723 Journey

Chapter 1146: Chapter 723 Journey

The grandfather of the great celebrity Situ Lichun finally left the research laboratory of the Longevity Club.

From the day he entered the Longevity Club to his departure today, the old man had stayed in the club for a total of one hundred and thirteen days, during which most of the time, he was lying in the highest-level laboratory, being cared for in turns by more than a dozen top scientists every day. Despite such meticulous treatment, the old man still went through several life-and-death situations, with a few instances where he was breathless, yet he was snatched back from the brink of death.

It can be said that if it weren’t for the Longevity Club, the old man wouldn’t have held on until now, let alone gradually regaining his health and even being able to return home for recuperation.

After taking the Longevity Pill No. 1, the elder Situ merely managed to temporarily save his life, and his physical functions didn’t change much. It was actually the Longevity Pill No. 2 he took recently that truly allowed him to stand up from the sickbed.

After observations from various aspects, elder Situ’s physical functions have recovered by about thirty percent compared to before. Although the once debilitated old man can’t yet move as ordinary people do, at least he can now walk briefly out of bed. Even if he stays at home with regular check-ups, there won’t be much of a problem.

Originally, some scientists in the laboratory disagreed with letting elder Situ leave, as the old man was not only the only subject in the entire laboratory but also the only one who had taken both Longevity Pill No. 1 and No. 2. If they allowed him to leave just like that, the club would lose its experimental material and the ability to constantly observe the old man’s functions, which would be a huge loss for the entire laboratory.

If it were just for this consideration, Chu Mo would certainly find a way to keep elder Situ.

However, that day, when he saw the eyes of the old man who had been confined in the laboratory for more than a hundred days, eyes that were once again filled with hope, Chu Mo could not bring himself to refuse.

Even today, Chu Mo vividly remembers when elder Situ first arrived at the laboratory; he was critically ill, completely delirious, and his eyes, apart from being muddled, had not a trace of light.

And now, although the old man’s eyes are still cloudy, deep within, they contain a hint of luster, and a touch of longing for life.

Chu Mo knew that the old man, who had been trapped here for over a hundred days without sunlight, sincerely wanted to return home. To the old man, even if he left today and died tomorrow, even if he could only stay at home for one day, he would consider it as leaves returning to their roots, dying without regret.

Keeping the old man here would indeed increase some research data, and the collected information would be more complete, but it would deprive the old man of his last bit of freedom. Rather than being treated like a laboratory rat, it would be more liberating to quietly close his eyes and pass away.

Thus, in the end, Chu Mo ignored the requests of the top scientists in the laboratory. This was also the first time he had refused the demands of the top scientists and chose to grant elder Situ freedom.

On December 1st, not long before Christmas, elder Situ finally left the Longevity Club. The entire Situ family, including the great celebrity Situ Lichun, all came to the club’s entrance and then bowed to express their gratitude toward the direction of the Longevity Club.

Chu Mo arranged a special transport to send the old man away. Inside the vehicle were all sorts of precise instruments that could provide basic treatment should any anomaly arise in the old man’s condition.

Then, on the same day that elder Situ left, Chu Mo also departed from Magic City. He boarded his private jet and, under the protection of Lei Ting and Qin Lan, flew westward.

The private Boeing plane flew smoothly at an altitude of ten thousand meters. This plane was specially customized by Chu Mo at a cost of hundreds of millions and was almost entirely tailored to his preferences. Ever since this jet was acquired, Chu Mo had always parked it at Changhong Airport, where it was entirely managed by the airport authority. After paying a hefty maintenance fee, whenever Chu Mo needed it, the airport staff would arrange the most professional team to service him.

Chu Mo rarely traveled in this private jet for leisure, and he never had the experience of traveling by plane for pleasure. Even the few times he boarded, it was for various reasons.

It had been over a year since this Boeing jet was bought and stationed at the airport, and Chu Mo had taken it no more than a handful of times. Even its spokespeople had only used it occasionally. However, in this year, the maintenance fees spent by Chu Mo amounted to tens of millions. The actual cost for the plane’s upkeep didn’t amount to much; the majority of expenses were for the crew members arranged by Chu Mo.

This included a captain with over two thousand hours of flying experience, an equally seasoned co-pilot, as well as four handpicked flight attendants from the entirety of Changhong Airport. As for other crew members, previously, they were pulled from other teams to serve Chu Mo whenever needed. Now, they had become Chu Mo’s full-time staff, and apart from the takeoff of Chu Mo’s Boeing, they no longer accompanied other flights.
