Trillionaire's Slice of Life-Chapter 391 - 249: Seeing Yang Duoer Again
Chapter 391 -249: Seeing Yang Duoer Again
When Chu Mo walked out of the small shop, he glanced at the Koenigsegg parked in front of the restaurant, which was attracting quite a crowd. Seeing a tall bodyguard nearby watching the vehicle, he decided not to go through the trouble of driving again.
The Starry Sky Cinema was just a hundred meters or so ahead, and it wasn’t worth the hassle of driving there and back to move the car.
He started walking, strolling along, passing various vendors selling all kinds of merchandise, mostly clothing and small accessories. The majority of people coming and going were couples snuggling together or groups of friends. Someone like Chu Mo, walking alone leisurely, was indeed rare.
Chu Mo had been to this place many times before. Most of the clothes and personal items he used to wear were bought from roadside stalls here, so he knew his way around quite well and felt quite at ease.
Along the way, he saw an old man with a cage in front of him, covered with a plastic sheet, and three cute little black cats huddled together on top of it.
Normally, such pet sales should take place in the flower and bird market, but the management of this night market was not too strict, so it was not uncommon to see such vendors.
Chu Mo paused for a moment in front of the three little black cats.
He wasn’t particularly interested in small pets, having only ever kept a small goldfish before. He had never had a dog or cat. He stopped because he thought that if he took these three kittens home, perhaps the maids in the house would like them.
Of course, that thought was just a fleeting one in his mind.
Given his financial status and position, if he wanted to keep some pets, they would have to be some of the world’s top precious breeds. Not to mention other things, even the pond under the rockery at Emperor Xuan Villas housed gold arowanas worth tens of millions.
Furthermore, there were too many antiques and paintings in Emperor Xuan Villas. If he really decided to keep such small house cats, any accidental damage to an antique could probably make the maids jittery, not to mention the anxiety the butler would feel over a stolen fish from the pond.
After dismissing the idea of having small pets, he continued walking towards the cinema without stopping.
Starry Sky Cinema was located on the seventeenth floor of the Da Run Fa shopping center. Chu Mo took the elevator there, picked up his ticket, and by the time he arrived at Auditorium 5, it was 7:38 p.m.
The movie was about to start in two minutes, perfect timing!
“Hope for a Gentle Return” was a love story movie and the cinema was filled with couples, making up ninety percent of the audience.
The seat Chu Mo had chosen wasn’t very good, it was in the second row near the left side. The position was too close to the front and too far to the side, but there was no helping it. When he had chosen his seat, there were hardly any available in the entire cinema, and this was the best one left.
The cinema had a high occupancy rate, and he had taken a special look when he arrived—it was almost full, with very few vacancies.
The big screen was playing trailers for some upcoming movies. Chu Mo adjusted his sitting position and was waiting quietly when suddenly, a svelte figure wearing sunglasses and a high-collared coat appeared beside him.
At first, Chu Mo didn’t pay much attention, but after a moment, as a faint fragrance wafted to his nose, he subconsciously looked towards the figure beside him—an oversized pair of sunglasses covered half of her face, and the high collar of the coat was standing up, the person completely wrapped up.
Chu Mo took a second look, feeling a sense of déjà vu, but at that moment, the screen in front of him went dark. When the big screen lit up again, the words “Hope for a Gentle Return” appeared, and the entire theater instantly went quiet, signaling the start of the film.
Chu Mo’s attention was drawn to the screen. He shook his head slightly and then focused on the movie before him.
The first thing that appeared on the screen was a pair of red high heels. As the high heels moved, a pair of slender and well-proportioned legs appeared in view.
As the camera zoomed in, the surroundings were clearly in a library. The sound of high heels clicking against the floor was continuous, and as the camera zoomed in, a beautiful face appeared before the eyes.
The leading actress portrayed by Hua Country’s top-tier actress Lin Wanqiu appeared on the big screen just like that, straightforward and sexy.
Chu Mo’s attention was entirely on the movie in front of him, his emotions shifting with the experiences of the leading actress.
During the meeting and falling in love of the male and female leads, the cinema erupted into laughter seven times, but as the plot progressed, the male lead was forced to leave, separating from the leading actress, the story gradually became more oppressive, and the atmosphere in the theatre subtly changed with it.
At the end of the movie, with the lonely piano solo playing, the Lin Wanqiu on the screen wasn’t met with the male lead’s return. Instead, as the film entered its final scene, it was those dim eyes of the other party that remained.
At this moment, Chu Mo noticed from behind him the sound of a suppressed, gentle sobbing. He closed his eyes and listened quietly, soon realizing that this soft sobbing seemed not to originate from just one place. When he opened his eyes again, the screen in front of him was already showing the credits.
The movie ended, some people left, and at this time, many began to softly discuss the leading actress’s fate.
Chu Mo wasn’t in a hurry to leave, he just sat there quietly, watching couples exit one by one, occasionally spotting some emotional young girls gently wiping their eyes.

Today was the premiere of ‘Longing for Your Return’, and the cinema-goers here were the first batch of viewers. Their reactions would directly affect the subsequent attendance for this movie.
Only if the people here were satisfied, spreading the word mouth-to-mouth, could they attract more people to the cinema. And if they weren’t, the film might face a high start but a low continuation.
Chu Mo quietly observed these reactions. Apart from the occasional girl wiping away tears, many were discussing the plot, the overall response was fairly standard.
After everyone had left, Chu Mo then noticed that the woman beside him, emitting a faint fragrance and wearing sunglasses, was still sitting quietly beside him.
He glanced at her curiously, then narrowed his eyes slightly. After a moment, a glint sparked in the depths of his eyes and Chu Mo said softly,
“Miss Yang, you’ve gone through quite the trouble to find this place!”
Chu Mo stood up, and the tall girl beside him also got to her feet. She looked at Chu Mo deeply through her sunglasses before starting to walk towards the cinema’s exit.
As they walked side by side out of the cinema, the girl with her hands in her coat pockets said softly,
“There was nothing difficult about it, didn’t I tell you, Mr. Chu? All the Darunfa chain supermarkets across the country are invested in by our Yang family, and this Star Sky Cinema is a Darunfa property. Getting Mr. Chu’s information was quite easy.”
Chu Mo glanced at the crowd waiting in line for the elevator at the entrance. There was no exclusive lift for him to go downstairs here, and to take the elevator, he had to queue up and wait his turn like everyone else.
He stood silently at the back of the line, his voice calm,
“If it’s about the Eight Great Families again, Miss Yang, there’s no need to talk about it. I have no interest in controlling matters like the Eight Great Families.”
In the Eight Great Families of Hua Country, the young mistress of the Yang family from the Capital City, Yang Duoer, spoke with a smile in her voice,
“Who said it’s about the Eight Great Families? I just heard that Mr. Chu has encountered some trouble, so I came over just like that!
Mr. Chu, I’m here to help you.”
