Trillionaire's Slice of Life-Chapter 319 - 226: Chu Mo’s Personal Secretary (Begging for Subscriptions)
Chapter 319: Chapter 226: Chu Mo’s Personal Secretary (Begging for Subscriptions)
The wedding banquet had officially begun; the bride and groom had already descended from the stage and started making the rounds for toasts, which essentially meant there was no further need for Chu Mo’s role as the best man.
After greeting Li Fei, Chu Mo left in a hurry with Xia Xue.
The Rolls-Royce Phantom and the Bentley Mulsanne turned around and headed in the direction of the financial district skyscraper in Modu, where the Shuimu Nianhua Club was located nearby.
Xia Xue, sitting beside him, originally had a pale complexion that gradually gained a blush, though whether it was due to her improving health or slight excitement, he did not know.
Sitting quietly in the back seat of the Phantom, Chu Mo hesitated for a moment before pulling out his phone, scrolling through his contacts, and pressing the call button. After a few rings, Dong Xun’er on the other end picked up.
“Mr. Chu!”
When Dong Xun’er’s crisp voice came through, Chu Mo could tell that she was deliberately lowering her voice, most likely because the place she was in wasn’t suitable for loud conversations.
Perhaps she was with Lin Ling’er, the eldest daughter of the Lin family, or maybe she was with the agent from the Li family of Jiangnan!
Chu Mo didn’t dwell on it and got straight to the point,
“How are the negotiations with the Li family going?”
As Chu Mo finished speaking, silence lingered on the other end of the phone before the slightly muted voice finally came through,
“…I overestimated myself before. I thought the negotiations would go smoothly…
The Li family’s demeanor was very casual. Discussing the pros and cons of Jinmao Mansion with their agent brought no reaction. They seem to value Jinmao Mansion highly and won’t let go of it easily. But Mr. Chu, rest assured, I will revamp the negotiation strategy. Please believe in me – I will definitely secure Modu’s tallest building for you!”
Dong Xun’er’s voice wavered slightly at first but grew more earnest as she spoke, ending with a tone full of absolute confidence.
Chu Mo’s lips curled slightly; he didn’t reveal his intention to meet with the Li family head, Li Xiaoyao. After giving a casual instruction, he ended the call.
“Mr. Chu, are you planning to acquire Modu’s tallest building?… I’m sorry, I just overheard it by accident!”
When a delicate and frail voice came from beside him, Chu Mo suddenly handed his phone to the young woman next to him. She was caught off guard and fumbled to take Chu Mo’s cellphone.
After glancing at the breathtaking beauty with arched eyebrows beside him, he took a gentle breath and said indifferently,
“Since you’ve decided to become my personal assistant, you need to be acquainted with my affairs. Many matters I can’t personally handle will be addressed by you in my stead. Though this role might seem trivial, you will in fact be the closest person to me; your every word and action will represent my moves and will…”
“Gulp…”
Before Chu Mo could finish his sentence, the young woman by his side swallowed nervously. She held Chu Mo’s phone in both hands, her expression filled with bewilderment.
Gently patting the fair thigh of the woman beside him, Chu Mo smiled and said,
“Don’t be nervous. This position is such that one need not take everything too seriously. The matters concerning me are quite manageable.
“As long as the industrial chains I control are properly managed, such as the Bafang International Chain Hotel under Zhan Bingxue’s control, the Shi Yuan Entertainment under Qin Zixuan’s control, the detective agency under Jiang Tao’s control, the Longevity Club under Yang Xuan’s control, and some other scattered intelligence, things will become much easier,” Chu Mo said.
“The person we’re going to meet soon is Li Xiaoyao, the Family Head of the Li family from Jiangnan. You might not be familiar with them; their influence isn’t in Modu. However, Modu’s tallest building, Jinmao Mansion, is under the Li family’s management,” Chu Mo explained.
“This Li family holds great influence in the Jiangnan area and is one of the eight major families in Hua Country, with assets close to a trillion. Compared to the publicly acknowledged richest man, Zhang Dahua… the net worth of this Family Head, Mr. Li, could probably match two and a half Zhang Dahua,” he added.
“This time, our meeting with Li Xiaoyao is to gauge his intentions. As for Modu’s tallest building, that is related to my fifth strategy. If I can successfully acquire Jinmao Mansion, then the next target will naturally be Modu’s third tallest building. By including the second tallest, Modu Financial Tower, the legendary ‘Modu Trilogy’ will then be completely in my hands…!” Chu Mo continued with gusto, all the while observing the reaction of the girl beside him.
Chu Mo had a rather positive impression of this girl named Xia Xue beside him. Although he still didn’t know about her work capability, she had guts. If she managed to become his personal secretary, then she would become his most trusted confidante, and her status might even surpass those like Zhan Bingxue and Qin Zixuan, who were among the first to follow him.
After all, a personal secretary would be by his side at all times, handling almost every matter concerning him.
Of course, for such an important position, ability was actually secondary; loyalty must come first. Otherwise, if she were to have any ulterior motives, the loss might be even greater than a spokesperson’s betrayal in one of the industrial chains!
At this stage, Chu Mo only intended for her to roughly understand his layout. And the very act of bringing her to meet the Family Head of the Li family from Jiangnan was, in fact, the start of Chu Mo’s formal assessment of her!
During the ride, Chu Mo casually gave her a primer on his basic situation, without going into too much detail. About fifteen minutes later, the Rolls-Royce gradually slowed, and once the vehicle stopped, bodyguard captain Shou Bo immediately got out of the car to open the door for him.
Chu Mo removed his hand from Xia Xue’s fair thigh, then stepped out of the car. As he straightened his collar, he realized that the inexpensive suit he wore, which cost around four or five hundred, starkly contrasted with the opulent Shuimu Nianhua Private Club in front of him.
However, now that he was here, there was naturally no turning back.
A moment later, when Xia Xue got out of the car from the other side and quickly came to his side, the corners of her mouth slightly lifted, and Chu Mo, with his head slightly raised, confidently walked forward.
Even though Chu Mo’s suit was very cheap compared to the million-dollar bespoke attire that others might wear, it was still formal attire. Coupled with the mature and elegant demeanor he was gradually developing, no one would dare disparage him in the slightest.
Xia Xue, standing beside him, was originally one of the nine maids at the Tianxiang Garden, located on the ninety-fifth floor, which in itself was the only seven-star super hotel in Modu. Thus, there were no nobodies among the guests. Being one of the nine top maids of Tianxiang Garden, Xia Xue attended to top tycoons with net worths in the hundreds of billions, so her demeanor and etiquette were naturally flawless.
With her head raised and chest out, Xia Xue’s world-class beauty shone with a self-assured and elegant smile. Her entire aura no longer had the carefulness she displayed in the car, but rather, she assumed the poise of an elegant and noble queen!
Confident and elegant, she was a dazzling sight.
She followed lightly at Chu Mo’s side, yet appropriately maintained a half step behind him, fully exhibiting the stance of deferring to the man beside her.

As they approached the Shuimu Nianhua Private Club, a receptionist immediately came forward with respectful greeting. With the receptionist’s careful reverence, Chu Mo stated indifferently,
“I have an appointment with Mr. Li Xiaoyao.”
Upon hearing this, the receptionist, clad in a dress adorned with rose bubbles, bowed deeply once more and crisply said,
“You must be Mr. Chu. Mr. Li is waiting inside, please follow me!”
