Trillionaire's Slice of Life

Chapter 170 Defying Fury

Tomorrow marks the start of a new school term, and taking advantage of the last day of summer vacation, Xin'er, Tao Yun, Song Xiaoxi, and Zhou Yuanyuan, girls about to enter their junior year of college, were having a blast.

The yacht was equipped with jet skis and various water toys, and the girls, under the supervision of the crew, rode the jet skis wildly across the sea, their cheers and screams never ceasing.

Swimming in the sea is vastly different from a pool; the waves here were so substantial that they came one after another, giving the sensation of being unable to catch one's breath.

After splashing around in the sea with the young ladies for half an hour, Chu Mo climbed onto the yacht, gasping for air.

He went straight to the top deck and collapsed onto a lounge chair like a dead pig, not willing to move even a finger anymore.

The tip of his nose detected that unique briny scent of the ocean, which was not unpleasant.

Above the expanse of the sea, seagulls flew overhead, and at the horizon where water met sky, a red sun was slowly setting. Here, free from the obstruction of skyscrapers, one could see every detail of the sun dipping below the horizon.

Chu Mo's chest rose and fell lightly as he slowly closed his eyes, then directed the butler standing by his side,

"Head back home."

"Right away, Mr. Chu."

The middle-aged butler responded promptly with impeccable manners, followed by the sound of receding footsteps.

Chu Mo lay there in a state of total relaxation, his mind seemingly floating in the air as he quietly enjoyed the tranquility and luxury. His breathing grew lighter and lighter, and just as he was drifting between sleep and wakefulness, a cool small hand gently touched him.

Startled awake, Chu Mo opened his eyes to see a breathtakingly beautiful face crouching beside him, a pair of slender, jade-like hands softly wandering over him.

"Although the sun isn't too harsh now, it's still better to apply sunscreen if you're going to sunbathe here. The sea breeze is strong, and it can easily make the skin lose its luster."

Opening his eyes, Chu Mo looked at the picturesque woman in front of him, enjoying the warm and delicate massage of her tiny hands, and said in an even tone,

"How has it been at the company lately? Still adapting well?"

Ding Qian, with her dreamlike beauty, looked serious as she spread the slick sunscreen on her hands and then evenly applied it over Chu Mo's broad chest, arms, and thighs.

Months of training had begun to outline the beginnings of an eight-pack on Chu Mo's physique. Although he was still far from the fitness enthusiasts, his six-pack abs were starting to show, setting him apart from the average person.

"Since the short film last time, my popularity has stayed high, and I've been on a few TV shows. However, my agent says that as fast as my popularity rose, it can fade just as quickly if there aren't any new works to maintain it, and I'll soon be forgotten by the public."

Chu Mo nodded, which was why he had made a special request to Ren Wenxuan from Shangyuan Entertainment just now.

He closed his eyes again, contentedly enjoying the massage from the stunning woman before him, and spoke in a level voice,

"This is a rare opportunity, and with Ren Wenxuan being a godfather figure in the entertainment industry, his word can truly change your destiny. Since he has decided to promote you, you must seize this chance, as it could greatly increase your likelihood of becoming a top-tier superstar."

The woman in front of him nodded slightly while saying earnestly,

"Mr. Chu, I understand what to do."

"Hmm."

Chu Mo hummed through his nose, preferring not to say more.

For Ding Qian's sake, Chu Mo, as the backer behind the scenes, had personally spoken to the director of Shangyuan, owing Ren Wenxuan a favor.

At Chu Mo's level, owing someone a favor was no small matter, and that he was willing to be indebted to Ren Wenxuan showed how much he valued the woman before him.

If even with all this Ding Qian still couldn't rise to stardom, then it would mean she just wasn't cut out to be a star.

After all, in the entire entertainment industry, she was the only one with the full support of both Shi Yuan Entertainment and Shangyuan Entertainment's heavyweights.

Of course, Chu Mo's endeavors to promote her weren't for purely selfless reasons. In his heart, the woman before him was already his, and others could no longer touch her at will.

"Mr. Chu, the French chef Stilan personally made some desserts. Would you like to try them?"

When a sweet and pleasant voice reached his ears, Chu Mo gently opened his eyes and then saw a stunning figure with crystal earrings appear before him.

Chu Mo squinted slightly, examining the woman holding the desserts, and after a moment's hesitation, said,

"You must be Qiu Shui from Tianxiang Garden."

The beautiful woman's eyes immediately lit up with recognition, and she nodded seriously as she walked gracefully towards Chu Mo. The woman with a splendid figure smiled brightly as she said,

"It's rare that Mr. Chu remembers a minor character like me. You seem a bit inconvenienced; shall I feed you?"

The gentle hands on Chu Mo's thighs pressed a little harder as he shook his head and sat up. Taking the cake from the woman named Qiu Shui, he complimented her,

"Your earrings are very pretty."

A smile quickly spread across Qiu Shui's stunning face as she playfully shook her head, causing the crystal earrings to sway. She said cheerfully,

"Mr. Chu, please try the cake. I've tasted it before, and it's truly delicious. I heard the yacht's chef has earned three Michelin stars, and that French chef is really funny."
