Chapter 139: Not Acting Up Won

~7 min read 1,201 words

In a certain region in the war-torn east.

The two nations are engaged in fierce combat.

Innocent civilians caught in the crossfire are filled with fear, living in constant dread each day.

No one knows when disaster might strike.

In comparison, peace remains a distant prospect.

At the border of the two nations' frontlines.

In a school zone, a teacher connected to the internet and quickly downloaded Song Mo's songs and music videos.

After listening to the piano piece, she was deeply moved.

Tears welled up in her eyes.

Originally, she had already given up hope herself.

But in front of the children, she had to project an optimistic and positive demeanor, hiding all negative emotions.

After hearing Song Mo's music, she reignited her hope.

She then gathered all the children, hiding them beneath a safe air raid shelter, and played Song Mo's piano piece for them.

The children, previously sunk in terror and mentally numb, regained a glimmer of vitality on their faces upon hearing Song Mo's music.

No matter how the situation unfolds.

Only by holding on can we wait for the day the war ends.

…

When Song Mo advanced his piano skill to Transcendental.

He gained a Transcendental attribute.

【Transcendental Piano · Emotion Control】

His music can influence people's emotions — an extraordinary feat.

Only after Song Mo specially recorded and released the piano piece online did its terrifying power truly manifest.

It caused massive uproar both domestically and internationally.

"Who is Song Mo?"

"What! Is this the composer of the piano piece?!"

Most people did not know Song Mo.

But after hearing the piano piece, they became eager to learn about him.

As a result, Song Mo's Prestige Value kept rising continuously.

In just half a day.

It had already surpassed one hundred million Prestige Value.

Then, Song Mo directly purchased the 【Phasing】 ability.

After purchasing it, a beam of light flashed into Song Mo's body.

Song Mo's mind received the information about the Phasing skill.

【Phasing: Body becomes ethereal, immune to all physical and spiritual attacks, lasts one hour, cooldown 24 hours】

【Note: Has a passive effect — when the body suffers irrecoverable damage, it automatically phases】

Finally, he had secured this ability.

Song Mo finally felt as if the world was vast and he could do as he pleased.

"Even if Earth explodes, I can still survive for an hour."

"Spending so much Prestige Value on a survival skill has relieved a major burden; now, any further Prestige Value should go toward acquiring tech-related items."

"After all, building a commercial empire in modern society can't rely solely on medicine — isn't it now about combining technology and tradition?"

"Medicine and technology are inseparable."

"If I can merge traditional Chinese medicine with technology and achieve outstanding results, I'll become the founding patriarch of this field."

His Prestige Value was now exhausted.

But it was still rapidly increasing, so Song Mo wasn't in a hurry.

He paused for a moment in thought.

He wondered whether the Kang'anyao he obtained from the system could also be released.

As for whether he could digest this cake…

After pondering, Song Mo decided to invite the government to invest, having them provide funding while he sold them twenty percent of the shares at a discount.

Pulling them onto his boat.

Then no problems would arise domestically.

As for the overseas market…

Song Mo would offer twenty-nine percent of the shares to Sheldon and Dushima Yingxue, while also bringing in some foreign capital.

Hoarding it alone would invite collective boycott.

He would become everyone's target.

He would face suppression and exclusion.

But if everyone shares it, there's no issue — Song Mo's bottom line is that he must retain fifty-one percent of the shares, maintaining absolute controlling interest!

"Tonight, I can discuss this with Dushima Yingxue, and call Sheldon to negotiate."

…

Song Mo's music video was released.

Liu Meiyun found out immediately.

Whether it was the foreign internet or domestic.

Any social media account related to Song Mo, Liu Meiyun had followed them all, and she basically had to scroll through them every day to see if Song Mo had posted any new updates.

So today, she managed to catch Song Mo's Piano MV.

Watching the video, Song Mo sat upright on the piano bench, his manner natural, his movements graceful, silently radiating an air of nobility.

Liu Meiyun's heart was itching like crazy.

When he began to play, the wonderful sound rose in her mind—anyone else who heard it would feel their heart grow calm.

But Liu Meiyun instead felt a burning heat all over her body.

She had used quite a lot of drugs.

Her body had long since been altered by them.

Therefore Song Mo's music actually didn't work very well on her, especially when her cravings kicked in.

Liu Meiyun inhaled as she fantasized about Song Mo, and the iron door in her heart began to shake loose.

A few hours later, Liu Meiyun returned to normal.

She then truly began to think it over.

Namely: how could she get Song Mo?

She had inherited Fu Ye's underground forces.

And relied on every means at her disposal.

If Song Mo were just an ordinary young master of a ten-billion conglomerate, Liu Meiyun naturally wouldn't hesitate—she'd just have him kidnapped and brought over.

No matter how rich he was, if she wanted to play with him, could she really not get her way?

However!

The problem was that Song Mo was no ordinary man!

Liu Meiyun had long since investigated!

That Leng Wanqiu who had previously kept Chen Xi—because she had suppressed the Song Family, the mighty Leng Group, with a market value of several hundred billion, had been forced to slink back to Kyoto in disgrace.

And according to Liu Meiyun's channels.

The top figure in the Leng Family was, after all, a person of standing and reputation…

If all of this was connected to the Song Family.

Then Song Mo was truly someone she couldn't touch!

Although when her cravings came, the happy beans took control of her brain, Liu Meiyun only used Chen Xi as a substitute for Song Mo.

She still cherished the power and influence she currently possessed, and didn't want to offend people she shouldn't, causing all the humiliation she'd endured over the years—exchanged for this wealth and glory—to flow away like water.

【So, I really have no chance to touch Song Mo?】

【The gap between Chen Xi and Song Mo is just too huge. I'm already sick of him—even if I put on a blindfold and pretend he's Song Mo, there's no sense of immersion at all.】

【I'm afraid of the power behind the Song Family…】

【That's easy to say, but what if Song Mo is interested in a flirtatious woman like me?】

【Even if he's not interested, men and women are different to begin with. Even if I slept with him, as long as I didn't hurt him, would it really matter?】

Liu Meiyun thought this way.

But she didn't know that she had already been led onto a dead-end road.

She might even end up going to the Yellow Springs together with Chen Xi…
