Even Chu Mo himself had to become more restrained in both his speech and demeanor when facing Liu Liu again, no longer as uninhibited as before.
“Grandpa, this is the ring Mr. Chu gave me,” she said. “He told me that with this ring, I’m now a senior member of the Longevity Club. I heard that the Longevity Pill No. 2 is about to be successfully developed, which is why there are so many rich people doing tasks here. With this ring, I don’t have to do tasks to get the Longevity Pill No. 2. Once we get it, Grandpa, you can take it, and then you won’t always have to cough in the middle of the night!”
Liu Liu, compared to two months ago, still exuded an innocent brightness. She gently touched the blue ring on her finger, and now, standing beside the white-haired elderly man, Liu Liu knew her grandfather’s health had always been poor, coughing continuously every midnight. This was precisely why she had resolved to become a livestreamer, to earn money to support herself.
The old man with a head of white hair watched the girl in front of him with a loving gaze. Twenty years ago, because of his own arrogance, his entire family had been slaughtered by their enemies, leaving only his granddaughter in front of him alive. All of his relatives had been killed. Even though he had avenged them by wiping out his enemies and afterward chosen to live in seclusion, his children and loved ones would never return. The little girl had been raised by him since infancy, never knowing parental affection. As a child, she would cry and ask him where her mom and dad were, but as she grew up, she never asked him that question again.
Liu Ping’s only reason to keep living was the granddaughter in front of him. Therefore, as his life neared its end, he was determined to let her live a carefree life at all costs, even if it meant becoming the grim reaper.
He was supposed to have three more years to live, but now, having agreed to help the Family Head of the Hua clan, Hua Zhenyu, increase his strength, he had exhausted too much of his Origin Power. His lifespan could last at most another half year. However, in his heart, he was determined to use the half-year he had left to smooth the path for his granddaughter.
...
The old man whose eyes were filled with tenderness gently stroked the girl’s long hair and said with an aged voice, “Liu Liu, this blue ring on your hand represents the SS-level membership of the Longevity Club. You are the only SS-level member in the entire club. Grandpa asked Mr. Chu for it specially. This ring might be of great use to you in the future. You must take good care of it.
Furthermore, you must always show respect for Mr. Chu. We had an agreement before; Mr. Chu is helping me fulfill my wish, and you are to become one of his spokespersons. Liu Liu, you must help Grandpa keep his promise, okay?”
Liu Liu nodded seriously in front of him. After the old man gestured with a light wave of his hand, indicating he wanted to rest, Liu Liu then contentedly turned and left.
Liu Liu, with a highball glass in hand, clung to Xuanyuan Fanghua for company. Feeling very insecure here, she could only relax when surrounded by her own people. Liu Liu’s gaze was quickly drawn to a solemn figure. She suddenly reached out to pat the jade-like hand of Xuanyuan Fanghua beside her while whispering excitedly with a full face, “Fanghua Sister, look, isn’t that person over there our Hua Country’s top tycoon, Zhang Dahua? He’s a real estate mogul. My biggest dream before was to work at Wanglin Group after I graduated.”
Liu Liu, as if she had discovered a new world, lit up with excitement. The man across from her was Hua Country’s nominal richest person, often on TV, and his presence was frequently seen in various news reports, so naturally, she recognized him.
Xuanyuan Fanghua, by her side, only glanced at the Hua Country’s tycoon before her interest visibly waned. As the premier beauty of the northwest, Xuanyuan Fanghua spoke casually, “It’s only Zhang Dahua, nothing to fuss over. Have you not noticed how he has to maintain a smile at all times here? There are many people here richer than him! An old man, absolutely uninteresting.”
Xuanyuan Fanghua, possessing a perfect visage, continually swirled her glass. Though the place was filled with top billionaires each worth more than a hundred billion, most of them were old men in their fifties, hardly drawing her attention.
Liu Liu, experiencing such a scene for the first time, was unconcerned. Although she didn’t recognize most of the people in front of her, many faces were familiar. Aside from the tycoon, Alibaba’s Chairman Ma Yu, the man touted as changing the financial landscape of Hua Country, especially captivated Liu Liu’s entire focus.
Seeing that Xuanyuan Fanghua appeared disinterested, Liu Liu pondered for a moment before sighing and speaking, “Aside from that Zhao Jia Di, I guess no other handsome guy could attract your attention. Speaking of which, how is Zhao Jia Di doing now? He took Mr. Chu’s bank card that has a hundred billion in funds. Has he risen to great heights now?”
Mentioning her observation target, Xuanyuan Fanghua’s eyes immediately flashed with a touch of brilliance, and the smile at the corner of her mouth widened slightly. Then she opened her mouth softly and said,
“That Zhao family kid is really quite interesting. He has already begun to acquire an advertising design firm with over a hundred employees, but he has not resigned from his current job, still earning a monthly salary of four to five thousand. What’s most amusing is that even though this Zhao family kid has bought a luxury car worth ten million, he still rides a shared bike to work every day… I really can’t see through him, but I have a feeling that it won’t be long before Zhao leverages his abilities to get an invitation from Longevity Club.”
Mentioning Zhao, Xuanyuan Fanghua was as excited as if talking about her favorite toy, a stark contrast to her previous dullness, becoming enthusiastic instead.
However, compared to Xuanyuan Fanghua’s interest, Liu Liu was more intrigued by the gathering in front of her. Currently, Zhao was at most a small advertising company’s chairman, with the company valued at merely several million. In contrast, Liu Liu’s immense personal wealth stretched into the tens of billions, making that sum not even enough to buy her a piece of jewelry casually, so she had no interest at all.
Liu Liu’s gaze was quickly drawn to two young and handsome men across from her. Compared to the middle-aged and elderly men in their fifties filling the hall, these two youths of about her own age were truly eye-catching.
Her eyes lighting up, Liu Liu turned to the girl beside her and asked,
“Fanghua, look at those two guys, they’re really handsome. Aren’t they big celebrities, or maybe from some overseas boy band?”
Xuanyuan Fanghua had also noticed the two young men across the room and she let out a cold laugh before speaking resignedly,
“There actually is a big celebrity here. Do you know the top-tier star Situ Lichun, who played the lead actress in ‘The Double-Sided Person’? Stars of that caliber here are merely ladies serving tea and water. Look, she’s just around that corner.
As for those two men… one is the third young master of the Yang family from Capital City, and the other is the eldest young master of the Long family from Xiangjiang. Both of these men are scumbags; it’s best if you stay away from them.”
Xuanyuan Fanghua had no real interest in these frivolous young heirs. In the past, second and third generations had avidly pursued her, the sole heiress of the trillion-wealth Xuanyuan family, leaving her with a rather unfavorable impression of them. Naturally, when faced with these young heirs, Xuanyuan Fanghua was genuinely uninterested.
But for Liu Liu, who was making her maiden voyage into high society, everything here was fresh and novel.
Her gaze first settled on a corner of the hall, where the top-tier celebrity Situ Lichun was indeed standing with a wine glass in hand, really just like a maid.
A moment later, Liu Liu withdrew her gaze from the celebrity and eventually focused on the third young master of the Yang family.
Although Yang Shulin was unlearned and had been running around with the rich second generation from a young age, his genes were undeniably extraordinary. Optimized over several generations, Yang Shulin’s looks had even surpassed a score of ninety-five. Note that once a man’s attractiveness reached above ninety, he would be more handsome than television stars. With an attractiveness rating of ninety-five, Yang Shulin truly swept away countless young girls’ hearts.
Feeling a strange sensation in her heart, Liu Liu stared intently at the two handsome men across the room. After a moment, she gritted her teeth slightly and started to walk slowly towards them.
However, what Liu Liu didn’t realize was that as she approached, many in the hall turned their attention towards her.
