Trillionaire's Slice of Life-Chapter 376 - 263 The Legendary Woman of Magic Capital (Kneeling and Begging for Subscription)
Chapter 376: Chapter 263 The Legendary Woman of Magic Capital (Kneeling and Begging for Subscription)
The dinner took place at the Yunpeng Hotel, a five-star establishment not far from the Young Women’s Building and not part of Chu Mo’s Bafang International Chain Hotel’s plans.
Leaders of the city’s four major families, along with Fan Zhijian and Cao Renyi, plus Chu Mo, Dong Xuner, and her best friend Jiang Nuonuo, totaled nine persons; the evening’s expense was 740,000 yuan.
The food itself wasn’t expensive; the main cost came from opening several bottles of red wine worth over a hundred thousand each.
Of course, as the host, Chu Mo was naturally expected to pick up the tab.
At 8:15 PM, the group, accompanied by Yunpeng Hotel’s chairman Yun Changqing, descended the stairs.
Red Flags, Bentleys, stretch Lincolns, Rolls-Royces—over a dozen luxury cars worth millions each were quietly parked in front of the hotel.
As the host, Chu Mo’s face was slightly flushed. He had drunk quite a bit at the banquet but was still relatively alert, continuously exchanging pleasantries with each tycoon, and only after ensuring each guest was in their respective cars did he stand in front of the hotel, waving to the slowly departing motorcade until the last Audi A9 merged into the traffic, allowing Chu Mo to finally relax a little!
At this moment, a plump little elder suddenly spoke up at Chu Mo’s side.
“Mr. Chu, you seem quite worn out. Why not rest here tonight? I’ll arrange a clean and simple stay for you!”
The plump elder in front of him was the chairman of the sixty-six-story Yunpeng Hotel, a wealthy magnate worth 7.5 billion yuan.
The old man was very enthusiastic in Chu Mo’s presence, not because of the hundreds of thousands spent at the hotel, but because Chu Mo now indeed deserved his respect.
Since getting the unlimited bank card at the beginning of May, Chu Mo had officially joined the upper echelons of the city within just half a year, by the end of October.
His current status was on par with the leaders of the city’s four major families, with an estimated worth of over a hundred billion yuan. Naturally, he was among the most elite tycoons.
A fact stood clear: if Chu Mo wished, he could purchase the sixty-six-story five-star hotel with a single word.
Therefore, even though the hotel chairman in front of him was several decades older, he still exhibited an enthusiastic and affable demeanor around Chu Mo.
The late October nights had brought a chill to the city, and a gust of cool air blew by, dispersing much of the alcohol from Chu Mo’s system. He proactively shook hands with the chubby elder, smiling as he said,
“Mr. Yun, thank you for your hospitality. I still have some matters to attend to, so I won’t disturb you any longer. When you have time, come visit Tianxiang Garden, and I’ll personally arrange it for you!”
The plump elder immediately accepted with a smile, personally opening the rear passenger door of the Rolls-Royce Phantom for Chu Mo, his tone slightly fawning as he said,
“Then, Mr. Chu, I’ll really hold you to that!”
Chu Mo knew why he was suddenly so eager; Yun Changqing, though worth several billions himself, couldn’t afford entry to the exclusive areas of Tianxiang Garden—a minimum net worth of ten billion was required.
In other words, based on his net worth, he had no access to the three main halls of Tianxiang Garden. But with Chu Mo’s promise, he now had the credentials to get in.
There, he could connect with even wealthier tycoons—worth tens, hundreds, or even over a thousand billion—expand his networks rapidly, and benefit greatly from such associations. Naturally, Yun Changqing would be pleased.
Without going on, Chu Mo got into the back seat of the Rolls-Royce, as his bodyguard Fang Lihu closed the door for him. Before the Phantom pulled away, Chu Mo rolled down the window, nodded to the respectfully seen-off elder, and then glanced at Dong Xuner across the way.
Dong Xuner, quickly catching on, approached the car and said earnestly, slightly leaning in,
“Mr. Chu, if there’s anything you need, just tell me!”
Chu Mo’s gaze briefly swept over the cautious young woman with black straight hair across from him, and then he spoke in an even tone,
“Tell your best friend not to bother Old Lu and the others. The benefits they promised her, I will fulfill—a residence in Tomson Yipin, and a Bugatti worth 47 million. I will satisfy her needs!”
Dong Xuner nodded immediately and respectfully, saying earnestly,
“Mr. Chu, rest assured, I won’t let Nuonuo disturb those executives!”
Without further words, Chu Mo closed the window and instructed the driver in the front seat,
“Let’s go! To Time of Youthful Bloom.”
The Rolls-Royce Phantom and the Bentley left at the same time, and soon, a white BMW pulled up gently in front of Dong Xuner.
As the chairman of one of the city’s three tallest buildings, Dong Xuner naturally had her own chauffeur.
After greeting Yun Changqing, the chairman of Yunpeng Hotel, she casually walked over to her best friend.
Only then did Jiang Nuonuo, who had been too nervous to even breathe heavily, finally let out a long sigh of relief.
Previously at the dining table, surrounded by a host of top tycoons, she had hardly touched her chopsticks or eaten, drinking just a couple of sips of red wine and sitting stiff with tension throughout the meal.
Now, free of constraints, she relaxed at last.
“Xuner, sorry to cause you trouble!”
Jiang Nuonuo spoke softly, and Dong Xuner, who had been full of dissatisfaction, rolled her eyes lightly before allowing the other to wrap an arm around her waist.
With a friendship of over a decade, any displeasure in Dong Xuner’s heart disappeared in an instant.
Dong Xuner waved slightly to a middle-aged driver in front of a BMW, then grabbed her best friend’s hand and walked toward the side of the road, saying softly,
“These big shots aren’t as simple as you think. Do you really believe you can just make friends with them whenever you want? If it weren’t for Mr. Chu’s face, we wouldn’t even be qualified to stand before them…
And you think sitting with them is a great opportunity? In reality, they’re only playing you for a fool!”
A hint of bitterness tinged Jiang Nuonuo’s beautiful face.

If this had been before today, Jiang Nuonuo would have argued with her best friend, believing that with her 95-point looks, all she needed was a chance to soar high among the branches.
But now, after actually sitting among a group of top tycoons worth hundreds of billions tonight, looking into their amused and profound gazes, Jiang Nuonuo finally understood.
The gap between herself and these top tycoons was insurmountable; it was not something she could narrow just by relying on a few little tricks and her 95-point looks.
Jiang Nuonuo, her emotions incredibly complex, looked up at the bright lights of the city around her and the high-rise buildings everywhere, yet she felt somewhat lost.
Dong Xuner, also having drunk wine and with her face flushed red, supported her staggering best friend as they walked. Knowing that bodyguards were protecting them from behind, she allowed herself the rare indulgence of saying,
“Thirteen years, I’ve struggled in this city for thirteen years. Since coming here to study at seventeen, after graduation, through many hardships…
I’ve been harassed by a boss, fired for fighting back, and driven out to wander the streets because I couldn’t pay the rent. During the hardest times, Nuonuo and our sisters took me in!
I’ve thought about giving up, but I am grateful to my past self for persevering through gritted teeth. It’s because of the me back then that I’ve achieved success today…
Nuonuo, I have one foot in that circle now, that top circle I used to see only on TV!
I swear, I, Dong Xuner, will become the most legendary woman in this city, and I will make everyone in this city know my name, Dong Xuner…!”
Her outburst shone with none of her usual mature elegance!
Jiang Nuonuo turned her head to look at the BMW following closely behind; she could clearly sense her best friend’s rise to success.
It was precisely because she didn’t want to be left far behind by her best friend, who started on the same line, that she mustered up the courage to mingle with a host of tycoons at the restaurant this afternoon!
Taking a deep breath, with envy in her eyes, Jiang Nuonuo said very sincerely,
“Xuner, congratulations! You must be moving away soon!”
Dong Xuner nodded lightly. That afternoon at the restaurant, Mr. Chu had promised her that she would move into a 1,200 square meter residence at Tomson Yipin, her several-hundred-thousand BMW would be replaced by a supercar worth tens of millions, and she would have maids at her service and twelve bodyguards, six men and six women, to protect her at all times.
Such a life had only existed in her dreams before!
Now, it was time for her dreams to come true!
Turning her gaze to her best friend beside her, Dong Xuner, with a hint of a smile in her bright eyes, said softly,
“We won’t be parted. Although I’m moving to Tomson Yipin, you’ll come with me. Since Mr. Chu gave his word, how could he break it?”
With widened eyes, Jiang Nuonuo listened as Dong Xuner said with a smile in her eyes,
“Mr. Chu has already ordered it. A house and a car won’t be missing for you. A 47 million Bugatti will be transferred to you within a week. Also, Mr. Chu owns more than a dozen properties at Tomson Yipin. Tomorrow, I’ll accompany you to choose one. However, Mr. Chu also instructed that you cannot bother Master Lu and the others anymore!”
Jiang Nuonuo nodded frantically, with tears streaming down the corners of her eyes. She hugged Dong Xuner’s shoulder tightly. After an afternoon of anxiety and twists and turns, the moment had finally come when the answer was revealed. Overwhelmed with surprise, she could no longer control her emotions and began to sob quietly!
“Xuner… thank you!”
When Jiang Nuonuo spoke softly, Dong Xuner patted her shoulder.
Years ago, when she was homeless, it was Jiang Nuonuo who first offered her a place to stay. Dong Xuner wasn’t an ungrateful person; seeing her best friend also reaping rewards, she was equally happy for her.
While gently soothing her long-haired best friend, Dong Xuner said thoughtfully,
“Thank me for what? I didn’t help much. The person we should be thanking is Mr. Chu!”
“Right… Xuner, how do you think I should thank him? You know, Mr. Chu?”
“What else is there to say… besides your pretty little face, what else do you have to offer?”
