Trillionaire's Slice of Life

Chapter 337: The Forty Million on the Ground



Wei'er Mina, a 34-year-old jeweler, remains unmarried to this day.

It's not that she hasn't had her share of outstanding suitors by her side—such as a prince, a business magnate, a literary mogul, and so on— but before she turned thirty, she had always prioritized her career. With the blessing of her royal British lineage and her own exceptional qualifications, she became a top-tier tycoon worth trillions.

However, when she reached her current status and looked back, she realized that the only individuals who could rightfully be part of her circle were the very elite, and they all shared one common characteristic—they were much older!

Only those who had accumulated enough wealth over a sufficient period could enter Mina's circle of vision, but ninety percent of them were already married with families. As for the remaining ten percent, they were either old enough to be her grandfather or playboys who frivolously toyed with emotions.

Then there were others who approached her, like Huang Haoran by the entrance of Changshou Building, a man worth twenty-nine billion. Despite being two decades older than Princess Mina, the vast difference in their statuses meant that his attitude was one of utter servility.

If Huang Haoran, nearly worth thirty billion, was like this, then the young talents in front of Princess Mina were even more flustered, some to the point of extreme excitement.

When she was named one of the three most powerful women in the world, Mina distinctly felt the way almost everyone looked at her change. There was awe, excitement, humility, joy in their eyes—but no one could communicate with her as an equal anymore.

Mina's trip to Hua Country this time didn't require her personal attendance. She could simply have sent a representative and controlled everything from behind the scenes.

However, when she heard that the other party in this transaction was a man whose worth was unknown but who was nine years her junior, her interest was suddenly piqued.

Mina longed for exchanges with her peers—not those peppered with flattery or sycophancy, but those that were completely equal and genuine. So, she decided to attend this transaction in person.

When she first met the young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, she saw a flash of amazement in his eyes, and that was all!

In the eyes of this Eastern gentleman, there was none of the subservience typical of ordinary men, nor was there any overt desire for possession.

In his gaze, Mina saw an almost detached state of being, devoid of desire. Even when discussing a cooperation involving hundreds of billions, and even though as the jewelry queen Mina had to treat it seriously, this much younger Eastern man remained as nonchalant and relaxed as ever.

For the first time, Mina became curious about a man.

She was curious about what cards he held that allowed him to be indifferent to a transaction of such a colossal scale.

She was curious about his background that enabled him to achieve such success at his age, curious about how far this renowned man of the Magic Capital would go.

Many say that when a woman becomes curious about a man, when she wants to know everything about him, it marks the beginning of her downfall.

Mina didn't think she'd fall for an Eastern man who was nine years her junior.

However, she admitted that she indeed had a favorable impression of this man enshrouded in mystery, unlike the kind between typical girlfriends and boyfriends.

"Chu, do you think this lady is beautiful, or am I more beautiful?"

Mina was very confident in her appearance. In the upper echelons of the world, she was not only known as the Queen of Jewelry but also as the dream lover of countless men. Even Hollywood's top actresses paled in comparison to her. However, the woman in front of her named Liang Bing possessed a beauty that even she had to envy.

When she saw the young man beside her gazing softly at the woman opposite, a complex feeling flickered in her heart, one she herself didn't understand. Suddenly leaning close to the young man's ear, Mina asked seductively.

Princess Mina, emanating a faint fragrance, leaned close to Chu Mo's ear. When she blew towards it, Chu Mo distinctly felt a slight electric current surge through his body. He glanced sideways and caught sight of her sensual, delicate red lips and the dazzling view beneath her deep V-neck.

Quickly regaining his composure, he let his gaze drift from Princess Mina to Liang Bing across from her. Without a doubt, Liang Bing, with her utmost beauty score of ninety-eight, was synonymous with seductive charm. At all times, she radiated a mature allure.

However, Wei'er Mina, at his side, who had a quarter of Britain's royal bloodline, exuded a completely different kind of charm.

She was noble and elegant, dignified and beautiful. Any man, under her strong and regal presence, would subconsciously bow his head, with very few possessing the confidence to meet her gaze.

Mina and Qiu Shui both had comparable beauty, but their auras were worlds apart.

At least for Chu Mo, Princess Mina was a lofty swan, to be admired from afar and never sullied.

While Qiu Shui was the most exquisite flower in his own backyard, ready for the picking whenever he wished.

Both women had their strengths, yet they were entirely different.

In the midst of Chu Mo's earnest scrutiny, Princess Mina at his side suddenly let out a bright laugh. A brilliant light flashed in her blue eyes. She showed no discontent over Chu Mo's hesitation; on the contrary, the princess seemed even more captivating as she softly said,

"Since it's so hard to make a choice, let's not trouble Mr. Chu any further."

With her words, Princess Mina moved forwards.

Chu Mo, slightly regretting his slow reaction, quickly followed her, catching up to walk beside her. With a smile, Chu Mo said,

"There are many Hua Country antiques upstairs, from the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties. Princess Mina can explore the profound history of Hua Country through these historical artifacts...!"

Before Chu Mo could finish, Liang Bing's crisp voice suddenly rang out behind them.

"Your Highness, please wait, you dropped something!"

At her words, they stopped in their tracks. Chu Mo turned his head and saw Liang Bing standing where Princess Mina had been moments ago, holding a gold wristwatch she had just picked up from the ground.

The blonde turned her head as well. She merely glanced blandly at Liang Bing behind her and then said indifferently,

"Anything that falls to the ground, I never pick up again!"

After her words fell, the princess turned and walked away. At that moment, Chu Mo glanced at the gold wristwatch in Liang Bing's hand.

He adjusted his glasses, sure that he hadn't seen wrong. That must be the Patek Philippe Ref1527 gold wristwatch, a top-tier ladies' wristwatch crafted with a pure gold case and face, embellished with 23 gemstones, priced at a staggering forty million RMB!

Discarding a top-tier wristwatch worth over forty million just like that, this is what being a real top dog looks like!

Indeed, compared to these world-class tycoons, Chu Mo felt that even with his unlimited credit card, he still had a long way to go.
