Trillionaire's Slice of Life

Chapter 380: Chapter 267: Spring in Full Bloom (Begging for Subscriptions)

“Mr. Chu, we’ve bought all the ingredients you asked for!”

Fang Lihu entered the kitchen with two bodyguards, each carrying a big pile of stuff. After the three bodyguards arranged everything and left, Chu Mo, who had rolled up his sleeves, began his performance.

He hadn’t cooked for a long time.

Everyone has their lazy moments. When he first got the unlimited bank card, he thought about improving his cooking skills and followed the villa’s chef to learn for a while.

Every morning after having breakfast, he would shadow the chef until they finished preparing the sixteen dishes for lunch. He persisted for over two months, felt that his culinary skills were accomplished, and then never set foot in the kitchen again.

Now, getting back to it suddenly felt a bit unfamiliar.

Of course, once acquired skills won’t disappear. As he organized the ingredients and began washing and chopping the vegetables, he gradually got the hang of it and started to feel more comfortable.

Ding Qian, Zhao Shuangshuang, and Chu Wen, the three girls, usually had their dinner in the company cafeteria. Although there was a large kitchen of several dozen square meters with all kinds of utensils and knives, it had never been used for cooking.

Chu Mo had just called Chu Wen, telling them to come straight back after practice and not to eat in the cafeteria, so he started to prepare ahead of time.

As he busied himself, the clanging of pots and pans quickly drew the attention of Ding Xiaoni, who was on the bedroom balcony.

This top-tier celebrity, who had recently taken all of Hua Country by storm, came over with a surprised look on her face. She was curious—how could Chu Mo, a top-notch billionaire controlling several industries in secret, know how to cook?

However, upon seeing Chu Mo’s deft movements and the fluidity of his veggie chopping, her beautiful eyes couldn’t help but shine brighter.

“Mr. Chu, although I can’t cook, I can still help wash the ingredients for you!”

Ding Xiaoni took off her stand-collar overcoat; outside, the coat served to conceal her identity and prevent recognition, but it was too bulky for working, so she naturally took it off to reveal the tight-fitting shirt underneath.

She wore a mesh miniskirt with stockings to go with the tight shirt, which immediately highlighted her graceful figure.

At a height of one meter seventy, she was already quite tall for a woman, and coupled with her angelically pure face, she could be considered a qualified ‘vase’ even if she did nothing but stand by to cheer.

Pleasant to the eye!

Chu Mo had learned a few signature dishes from his chef, especially sweet and sour fish and beef stewed with potatoes, for which he had even practiced extensively. To perfect the taste of the sweet and sour fish, he once invited the head chef of a five-star hotel to Villa Number One just to learn that dish.

When Chu Mo was serious, although he had a bit to go to match his own chef, his skills were not inferior to those of a typical star-rated chef, far beyond the level of a household cook.

With a serious expression and skilled movements, and with the full assistance of Ding Xiaoni at his side, the meal didn’t take too much time to prepare.

By seven in the evening, eight dishes and one soup were already on the table.

He turned to glance at the chaotic kitchen and chuckled lightly as he began cleaning up with Ding Xiaoni:

“If the fans knew that a big star like you was actually cooking, they would be so excited.”

At twenty-seven, Ding Xiaoni was at a brilliant age where youthfulness and charm coexisted. As she wiped the stovetop with a cloth, she said joyfully:

“It depends on who I’m cooking with. Being your assistant, Mr. Chu, is an honor.”

Chu Mo was flattered by the compliment and felt good about it. Moreover, having worked side by side with her in the kitchen for over an hour, they had become a bit closer, so even his voice was tinged with a bit of warmth:

“I hear you have two hundred and ten million followers on Weibo? Are you the biggest celebrity there in terms of fan count?”

Ding Xiaoni, with her elegant figure, smiled warmly. She dreamt of climbing even higher, so pleasing Chu Mo was already on her agenda, and since Chu Mo was a likable, handsome, wealthy, and gentle guy, now that she had learned that he could also cook a great meal, she didn’t have any resistance at all.

So, as her nervousness and apprehension slowly vanished, she, wrapped in warmth and joy, said with a smile:

“Mr. Chu, you’re not familiar with the entertainment industry. You may not realize that many of the two hundred and ten million followers on my Weibo are zombie followers. The actual number of active users is probably just in the tens of millions. In the industry, this is common practice; faking is the norm.”

Chu Mo, who was putting away the knives, paused slightly but quickly realized what she meant. Although Ding Xiaoni was a top star in Hua Country, there were nearly forty top-tier female stars in the country. Adding the male stars, there were nearly a hundred top-tier celebrities in total.

Ding Xiaoni had risen to fame not long ago, and having tens of millions of fans was already indicative of her booming popularity. Even a cursory thought made it clear that she couldn’t possibly have hundreds of millions of fans.

Of course, for Chu Mo, tens of millions of fans were more than enough.

If one-tenth of Ding Xiaoni’s fans, or even just one percent, bought his book, his “Chu Mo Short Story Collection” could sell hundreds of thousands, even millions of copies, much better than the few thousand copies sold before.

And that was just Ding Xiaoni. If he could mobilize the dozens of A-list stars from Shi Yuan Entertainment, the sales could at least double!

Chu Mo wasn’t greedy, and he didn’t rely on book royalties to live. Selling a hundred thousand copies would fulfill one of his dreams and leave him completely satisfied.

After cleaning the kitchen and washing his hands, he joined Ding Xiaoni at the dining table.

The dining table was already filled with eight steaming dishes, and given the time, the three girls led by Ding Qian should be arriving soon.

Taking advantage of this moment, Chu Mo, who was lounging lazily on the sofa, gently stretched his arms. After being busy for over an hour, his body was indeed a bit sore.

At this moment, Ding Xiaoni naturally approached Chu Mo’s side. She extended her fair and soft hands, gently kneading his shoulders while softly saying,

“Mr. Chu, you’ve worked hard. Let me give you a massage.”

Although Ding Xiaoni’s technique wasn’t exactly professional and was rather unpracticed compared to the maids of the Imperial Pavilion, considering her status as a top-tier superstar, her massage carried a different significance!

Looking across the whole of Hua Country, besides Chu Mo, who was the big boss, not even the chairman of Shi Yuan Entertainment, Qin Zixuan, could enjoy such treatment from her.

Her touch was neither too light nor too heavy, and her pale, delicate hands were slightly cool to the touch, making it quite comfortable on his shoulders.

Chu Mo closed his eyes slightly, very naturally enjoying the massage. After a short while, he sensed Ding Xiaoni leaning her body closer from behind, her slightly labored breathing spraying on his ear, carrying a hint of fragrance…

Chu Mo lifted his wrist to check the time—it was 7:11. Ding Qian and the other two girls should already be nearly here.

It was a bit of a pity—if only they were half an hour earlier, he could have had the chance to enjoy the softness of the bed with Ding Xiaoni…!

Twenty-seven years old, fair-skinned and beautiful, coupled with her identity as a superstar, she was indeed worth Chu Mo’s protection.

He breathed lightly, making up his mind.

“Ren Wenxuan, the chairman of Shangyuan Entertainment, has a lot of Hollywood resources. I’ll talk to him in a few days—our Hua Country’s entertainment industry should have an international-level actress!”@@novelbin@@

As Chu Mo finished speaking, Ding Xiaoni, who was behind him with a 95-point beauty score, stiffened slightly. Her breath suddenly became extraordinarily heavy, and the beautiful body that had been lightly resting against Chu Mo’s back now pressed tightly against him.

Ding Xiaoni was wearing tight-fitting clothes, and the softness that pressed against his back from behind caused Chu Mo to momentarily feel restless.

At that moment, the door suddenly made a light sound, followed by a burst of clear and lively voices.

The blushing-faced Ding Xiaoni immediately stood up, and just then, three women as delicate and beautiful as jade appeared before them!

“Boss Chu! We’ve been waiting a long time for this meal!”

Zhao Shuangshuang, who used to be a flight attendant, was the first to reveal a smile. After several months of dance and all-around training, she, too, had acquired a different kind of aura—elegant and charming.

Chu Wen was as shy as ever, merely smiling and greeting Chu Mo.

But the one who had changed the most was probably Ding Qian.

This top trainee of Shi Yuan Entertainment, a young girl with an otherworldly 99-point beauty score, no longer possessed the initial shyness and restraint. Her eyes, twinkling like stars, blinked continuously when looking at Chu Mo, even carrying a teasing hint in their depths!

It seems the past two months of training had been quite useful!

Surrounded by four nymph-like girls with beaming smiles, Chu Mo was in high spirits. He seated himself at the dining table, his voice carrying a chuckle,

“I’m in a good mood tonight, let’s drink a bit to celebrate!”

As his words fell, there was no need for him to act. Zhao Shuangshuang, with her long legs, had already taken the initiative to get wine from the cabinet.

An excited Ding Xiaoni quickly took the prime spot to his left, while Ding Qian, who had set down her handbag, naturally sat down to Chu Mo’s right.

Ding Qian, who had once soared to fame because of a short film and likewise fell from grace due to defying Chu Mo, had become much more mature. Her starry eyes continuously scanned over Chu Mo’s face, and under the table, her delicate, boneless hand occasionally slid across Chu Mo’s thigh!

Under the table, Chu Mo gently caught her hand, chuckling,

“I see you always leave your car parked in the garage. Don’t you drive it to work?”

Without waiting for Ding Qian to answer, Zhao Shuangshuang brought over the wine glasses, helping to pour him a half glass of red wine while smiling,

“That Bugatti is only for two people, and we’re a total of three. It’s not convenient. Besides, the office is close by; we walk there, treating it as a form of exercise!”

Once Zhao Shuangshuang had poured wine for everyone and sat down, Chu Mo gently raised his glass, his smile undiminished as he offered a toast,

“This glass is to wish the four beautiful ladies everlasting youth and perpetual spring.”

“Cheers!”

All four girls raised their glasses simultaneously, and in that moment, the entire room was enveloped with the warmth of spring.
