Chapter 1141: Chapter 710: Chu Mo’s Predicant_2
Lu Siyue’s net worth is now very close to 800 billion, and in Hua Country, she has been called the Queen of Costics. Her status has completely surpassed her grandfather’s. Nowadays, if soone ntions the Lu family, it’s no longer about the grandpa in the Magic Capital, but about Miss Lu of the Lu family. It can be said that Lu Siyue’s prestige has reached its peak. Looking over the entire Magic Capital, she could at least be ranked in the top five.
Chu Mo was delicately slicing the pri steak in front of him, occasionally glancing up at the stunningly beautiful woman across from him. In fact, Lu Siyue was two years older than Chu Mo; the twenty-eight-year-old was already of age to discuss marriage. Previously, her grandfather had more than once arranged for talented young n, hoping for his granddaughter to settle down soon.
However, now, with her ever-increasing status and a net worth approaching 800 billion, as well as control over the two top luxury brands Chanel and Hermès, Lu Siyue’s status has fundantally transford. She could converse lightheartedly with the patriarchs of the Magic Capital’s four major families and even sit on equal terms with those from the eight great families known throughout Hua Country.
With Lu Siyue’s current status, even when facing the leaders of the eight great families, they would greet her with a smile. And it’s precisely because of this that she is no longer on the sa level as those younger generation talents.
If in the past, heirs of top families could still be at the starting line with Lu Siyue, she has now left them far behind, even surpassing their parents’ generation in status. In such circumstances, those second-generation peers who used to sit at her level now can’t help but feel a notch below her, and even those who had very close relationships with her and grew up together now unconsciously feel a sense of tension and fear in her presence.
Perhaps it is for this reason that when Lu Siyue sees these second-generation peers again, she no longer regards them as equals. To her, they appear to be perpetual juniors, forever indulging in luxury or trivial pleasures, no longer stirring the slightest bit of emotion in her.
And now, looking over the entirety of Hua Country, even the entire world, there is no other man of her age capable of making Lu Siyue bow her head, apart from Chu Mo.
At this mont, Lu Siyue was looking intently at the young man opposite her, so focused that she seed a bit lost in thought.
Chu Mo put the steak in his mouth and savored it slowly, the rich taste sweeping across his taste buds. After a while, he slowly picked up his wine glass again and spoke:
“Human April Company has now entered a developntal bottleneck, and essentially there’s no room for growth left in Hua Country. What are your plans for the next step?”
Chu Mo’s calm voice rang in her ears, snapping the previously distracted Lu Siyue back to reality. She put down her knife and fork, picked up a napkin to elegantly wipe the corners of her mouth before she spoke:
“In Hua Country’s costics market, our Human April Company currently holds half of the territory. The other companies, to avoid being rged, have joined forces against us. However, their alliance is certainly not solid as iron, each harboring their own little sches. With just a little maneuvering on my part, win so over, suppress others, and then provide just a little sweetener, their union will crumble on its own.
But for the mont, I don’t plan to take imdiate action against them. The market in Hua Country is only so large; even if I were to rge them all, it wouldn’t be greatly beneficial. Besides, I might end up being labeled as overbearing. Letting them develop independently, to grow a bit larger before rging them, should yield a bigger harvest!”
Already possessing a net worth close to 800 billion and standing within Hua Country’s top-tier circles, Lu Siyue’s perspective has long since transford. Perhaps it is because she stands so high that her vision and magnanimity continue to expand. Just like those second-generation heirs who seem childish and ridiculous to her, she truly no longer has any interest in the small fish and shrimps.
Chu Mo did not intend to intervene much in Lu Siyue’s developntal strategies, he just nodded slightly, and then he did not ask further about work.
While Chu Mo was slowly enjoying the wine, Lu Siyue finally spoke up:
“Actually… Mr. Chu, the reason I invited you alone this ti is for the Number Two Longevity Pill in your possession… My grandfather is already over eighty years old, and although he’s in good health, I worry that if sothing were to happen soday… I’m not always by my grandfather’s side, so I was hoping to ask for a Number Two Longevity Pill for him. That way, if anything unexpected happens, he could protect his own life, and I could work with peace of mind…!”
Lu Siyue’s eyes held a touch of caution. As one of Chu Mo’s spokespersons, she naturally knew about the affairs of the Longevity Club, and she was also one of the first to learn about the successful developnt of the second Longevity Pill.
Chu Mo gently set down his wine glass, his gaze vaguely fixed on the stunning woman across from him. After a mont of silence, he did not say anything further.
Although the second Longevity Pill had been successfully developed, due to the need for the precious Great Restoration Pill as a catalytic agent, its production was extrely scarce. In Chu Mo’s hands, there were only ten pills remaining. Chu Mo had already used one, leaving only nine. It goes without saying that each and every pill was imnsely precious.
There were more spokespersons around Chu Mo than just Lu Siyue across from him, including Zhan Bingxue, Dong Xun’er, Yang Xuan, Qiu Shui, and as precious as jade, Liang Bing, whose mother was still in the sanatorium to this day.
As one of the three giants of the Longevity Club, Liang Bing had originally agreed to manage the club with the aim of curing her own mother. It can be said that the smooth progress of the club’s research owed much to Liang Bing’s contributions.
Logically speaking, the first to benefit from the second Longevity Pill should have been Liang Bing’s mother. However, due to the pill’s extre rarity, even Liang Bing had not received one.
Chu Mo took a light breath. In fact, it was situations like this that he feared the most. Whether it was Yang Xuan, Liang Bing, or even Lu Siyue who was sitting across from him, they all had elderly family mbers. If they all were to ask for the second Longevity Pill from him, the remaining nine pills wouldn’t be enough to distribute among his own people, let alone support his subsequent plans.
Yet, simply refusing them with a straight face would be unwise, as each of his spokespeople played an extrely important role to him. Turning them against him would render all his previous efforts futile.
Caught in this dilemma, Chu Mo found himself struggling with a choice for the first ti.
Taking a light breath, his expression quickly neutralizing, Chu Mo looked directly at Lu Siyue across from him and slowly said:
“Siyue, I am an old friend of your grandfather, and I sincerely concern myself with Mr. Lu’s health. If he truly needs it, I would, without hesitation, send the pill imdiately.”
Chu Mo’s voice was calm, but in the silence of the restaurant, Lu Siyue had already sat up straight, and as her eyes widened slightly, Chu Mo continued:
“However, this first batch of the second Longevity Pills is simply too precious, and the quantity too scarce. If I distribute all of these pills among our own people, our subsequent plans will be affected. Regardless of Mr. Lu or the relatives of other spokespeople, I care deeply about their health. If any of you need it, I will not hesitate to give you the pills, but currently, they have not reached that point!
So, I think, we wait for the second batch of pills to beco available. Once the second Longevity Pill is no longer in such short supply, I will surely give each of you one. Believe , that ti will definitely not be too far away…!”
As Chu Mo was attempting to console Lu Siyue, his speech unfinished, a commotion suddenly arose from outside the restaurant. He turned his head to look, only to see chaos unfolding on the street outside the restaurant.
At that mont, a figure appeared beside Chu Mo. The Great Grandmaster Lei Ting spoke with a stern voice:
“Mr. Chu, there are people forcing their way into the restaurant, and it seems they know you are inside. The situation is unclear, should we evacuate first?”
