Trillionaire's Slice of Life-Chapter 348 - 227: Yang Duoers Unearthly Beauty
Chapter 348: Chapter 227: Yang Duoer’s Unearthly Beauty
The time was four in the afternoon, and as Chu Mo walked out of Building 6 at Normal University, the sky above him suddenly began to drizzle, with light and intermittent raindrops that, when striking one’s body, added an unwarranted chill.
Unconcerned with the delicate rain trickling down from above, with his hands in the pockets of his suit pants, Chu Mo slightly tilted his head back. He took in the thick clouds overhead and regretted choosing today for the debate.
Moving forward, he strolled along the quiet path, noticing alert bodyguards in black scattered around him. Their expressions solemn, they appeared unfazed by the rain.
The flowers and plants by the roadside had mostly withered yellow, and even the leaves of the plane trees lining the road were incessantly falling with the wind.
“Mr. Chu, it’s raining!”
Following closely behind him was Xia Xue, dressed in a white tube-top dress embroidered with light pink lotus flowers, a white belt cinched around her slender waist. Her elegant long hair was gathered high on her head with a beaded hairpin adorning it. Her clear eyes shone with intelligence, and a touch of gold at her brows added to her captivating charm.
Chu Mo glanced at Xia Xue’s bare, fair arms as they walked through the light rain. The chilly autumn wind, combined with the drizzle, made even him in his full suit feel cold. She must be shivering, he thought, given how she was dressed.
Chu Mo paused in his steps and turned slightly to the woman standing in for his secretary, instructing her:
“You go and wait for me in the classroom, I want to walk alone!”
As his words fell, Xia Xue, with her curved eyebrows, slightly bowed her head. Her voice was clear and firm as she said:
“Mr. Chu, I’ll accompany you!”
Chu Mo merely glanced at her from the corner of his eyes. Seeing the respectful look in the young lady’s clear eyes and her exceptionally beautiful face, he ignored her and resumed his walk along the quiet path.
Perhaps because of the light rain, or maybe due to the school administration’s management, at that moment, the entire Normal University was tranquil, with only the occasional sight of those vigilant bodyguards in black, no other figures in sight.
The normally bustling sports field was now deserted. Standing at its edge, Chu Mo gazed into the distance and saw the football goalposts, inadvertently recalling the days years ago when he, as a student, had played with his close friends on that very field.
“Mr. Chu, do you really believe that Miss Yang of the Yang family can persuade so many influential people?”
Water had drenched Xia Xue’s face beside him, and the rain had washed away her makeup. Deciding not to bother, she took out some tissues from her bag and wiped her face clean. Even without a trace of makeup, she lost none of her stunning beauty.
Glancing at Building 6 not far away, where the debate was still ongoing, dozens of top scientists were arguing heatedly, creating a highly oppressive atmosphere. Tired of the chaotic mood in the multimedia classroom, Chu Mo had stepped out to catch a breath of fresh air.
As for Miss Yang of the Yang family!
A slight smile tugged at the corners of Chu Mo’s mouth as he said in a calm voice:
“I don’t believe in her… but what choice do I have? I’ve no way to convince these top dogs. Throwing money at the problem doesn’t do much to sway them, and I can’t outtalk them. Since that’s the case, it’s better to leave it to Yang Duoer. Even if it’s just for her own family’s sake, Miss Yang will no doubt give it her all. As for the outcome…”
“Let’s leave it up to fate!”
Chu Mo gently removed his gold-framed glasses from his nose. The fine rain had speckled the lenses with water, making his vision blurry. After wiping them clean and putting them back on, he realized that a graceful figure had appeared on the path not too far away.
Squinting his eyes to confirm that the approaching figure was indeed Miss Yang of the Yang family, Yang Duoer, Chu Mo turned away and instructed Xia Xue at his side:
“It seems the Young Miss of the Yang family has given up. Go check out the multimedia classroom and see how those bigshots are doing. Have they come to any decision?”
Upon hearing this, Xia Xue beside him bowed slightly and then she briskly walked towards the direction of the sixth teaching building.
As Xia Xue brushed past the Young Miss of the Yang family, her stride briefly paused as if she quickly uttered something. The woman named Yang Duoer merely curved the corners of her mouth slightly. A huge pair of black sunglasses still covered most of her face, rendering her expression invisible.
Walking leisurely towards the direction of the field, Yang Duoer’s long black hair flowed elegantly. Her backless dress traced her back’s perfect curves, and a delicate white ribbon wound around her neck, hiding the heart-shaped clasp of her crescent necklace.
She wore dark green casual pants, her wrists adorned with a Swarovski global collection jigsaw bracelet. The sunglasses covering most of her face drew attention to the sparkling pink diamond earrings on her ears, and the skin that was exposed was delicate and fair.
As her crystal sandals clicked rhythmically on the slightly wet ground, ‘da-da’ sounds followed her steps. After a short while, the girl leaning gently beside her took a deep breath and said, “The air really is fresher outside!”

Chu Mo’s gaze was fixed on the basketball court opposite him, his mind flooded with memories of games played with his buddy Li Fei. Momentarily, he withdrew his gaze and spoke indifferently,
“How certain are we now?”
“Fifty percent, it’s always been fifty percent.” Pausing, then stepping forward in her high heels, Yang Duoer, now at the same height as Chu Mo’s eyebrows, casually said,
“After all, there are only two outcomes, success or failure. If it doesn’t work out, there’s no loss for me, right… But what if it does? Chu, a major figure like you, certainly wouldn’t go back on his word, would he?”
Chu Mo didn’t respond; instead, he looked up at the dark clouds overhead as the rain seemed to grow heavier. In just a moment, his glasses were dotted with raindrops again. Turning to glance at the girl beside him wearing a backless dress, Yang Duoer’s fair and perfect back was nearly soaked, and her dress clung to her body due to the rain.
After taking off his glasses with a slight exasperation, he wiped the rain from them and said flatly,
“For your brother Yang Xiulu’s matter, seeking out Prince Ben Hesed in person or the Li family from Jiangnan would be more effective. Approaching me is taking the long way around. Even I would have to go through those two to resolve your brother’s troubles.”
As Chu Mo finished speaking, the Young Miss of the Yang family beside him snorted coldly through her nose. Even with sunglasses on, Chu Mo could feel her rolling her eyes at him.
Taking a deep breath, the girl named Yang Duoer scoffed,
“Isn’t that obvious? Prince Ben Hesed has already returned to Debai; how am I supposed to find him? As for the Li family of Jiangnan, with my status, I can at most relay a message to Li Hongda, the Young Master of the Li family. But Li Hongda is useless. And Li Xiaoyao, the Family Head, won’t bother with me… So, after going round in circles, the only person I have access to and who can influence this matter is you, Chu the Young Master.”
Chu Mo was a bit speechless. He didn’t have much liking for the handsome and imposing Yang family elder, and as the handsome face of that Yang family elder came to mind, Chu Mo suddenly grew curious.
The Yang family elder named Yang Xiulu already possessed a face more handsome than the popular young idols on television. So what would this Young Miss of the Yang family, same father, same mother, look like with her great beauty?
Chu Mo hadn’t considered this before, so it didn’t affect him much. But now, the thought inevitably sparked interest in the girl beside him with the oversized sunglasses.
Curiosity glimmered in his eyes, and just as Chu Mo was about to speak, the girl beside him suddenly said,
“When I left, those bigwigs who were originally firm in their opposition had begun to waver. I think if you, the big boss, could bleed a little more, and we work together to sway them, we would have a high chance of winning them all over… Come on, to the final battlefield.”
As she finished speaking, the girl beside him tossed her hair. Rain had already dampened her cheeks, and her oversized sunglasses were also speckled with rain, her vision seemingly obscured. The girl named Yang Duoer casually took off the sunglasses from her nose. As she wiped the water stains from her glasses, Chu Mo, who had already been watching her, suddenly stood still.
