After divorcing my celebrity wife, I became the world's richest person

"Sister-in-law, hello!" Chu Hong immediately broke the ice with her greeting.

The other five girls followed suit and called out a greeting to their sister-in-law.

Tong Ya looked on with satisfaction at the six girls before her.

"From today on, we are truly a family. Work hard, and I'll give you a bonus!"

"Long live sister-in-law!"

The six girls immediately became excited and then got busy with their respective duties.

Tong Ya was occupied all morning.

It wasn't that she was particularly diligent in her work; rather, her eyes were fixed on Chen Yu without straying.

Sometimes Chen Yu would feel somewhat helpless under her gaze and would turn her face away.

It wasn't until 6:45 a.m., when Tong Ya took Tuan Tuan to kindergarten, that Chen Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

But just two minutes later, a message from Tong Ya popped up.

"Husband, what should I do? I don't want to go to kindergarten anymore!"

Chen Yu raised an eyebrow, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

"It's not that, it's just torture not seeing you all day long!"

Chen Yu: "Won't you see me when you come back in the evening?"

Tong Ya: "But I want you to think about me every moment of the day!"

Chen Yu: "Alright!"

Tong Ya: "When I get back in the evening, I also want a hug!"

Chen Yu: "..."

The walk from the store to the kindergarten wasn't very long, but it felt like a century to Tong Ya.

And all along the way, she was looking down, texting.

If Tuan Tuan hadn't been there to remind her, she might have been hit by a car.

"Teacher Tong Ya, what are you doing? You keep staring at your phone and giggling like a fool!"

Tong Ya turned her head and gave Tuan Tuan a rather peculiar look before suddenly lifting her up.

"From today on, don't call me teacher; call me mom!"

Tuan Tuan's eyes widened in surprise, "But wasn't Dad... yesterday?"

"This morning he has acknowledged my status, and he's agreed for you to call me mom."

Tuan Tuan clapped her little hands excitedly, "That's great, my wish has come true."

Tong Ya put Tuan Tuan down and affectionately tousled her hair.

"From now on, it's not just in the store, but at school too, our mother-daughter relationship can be made public!"

Tuan Tuan was immediately jumping around in excitement.

Ever since Tong Ya taught her to dance, she had wanted to call Tong Ya mom.

Now that her wish was fulfilled, she was overjoyed.

She grabbed Tong Ya's hand and skipped toward the school, eager to announce to her friends that Tong Ya was her mom.

...

A private club.

Fang Yuan twirled her wine glass absentmindedly as she sat there.

Opposite her was a middle-aged woman dressed in regal splendor.

"Daughter, those capitalists I arranged for you last time, why didn't you entertain them properly? Now they want to withdraw their investment, and it puts me in a difficult position."

Fang Yuan put down her wine glass with some irritation, "Mom, can you stop arranging those meetings for me? What do those guys want to do? Don't you know by now?"

Li Juan looked helpless, "My dear daughter, this is the entertainment industry, and it's all about youth. If you don't latch onto a financial magnate while you're young, you'll be completely out of resources in a few years."

Fang Yuan was well aware of her current situation.

Although she was somewhat famous now, and Li Juan was still operating the talent agency.

But in the eyes of those capitalists, she was just an actress.

Once they gave up on her and cut off her resources, everything she had worked so hard for would turn to nothing.

"Mom! I've saved some money, why don't we invest ourselves, become the capital ourselves."

Upon hearing this, Han Mintao suddenly found it somewhat amusing.

"Child, do you really think everyone can become capital?"

Fang Yuan's breathing became rapid, and a look of determination filled her eyes.

"Isn't there the bet agreement? I want to try it."

The wine that Han Mintao had just sipped almost sprayed out.

"Have you gone mad? How many have succeeded with bet agreements? Once you fail, you'll not only be burdened with debt, but your future will be ruined."

Fang Yuan slammed her hand on the table.

"I want to take a gamble! I'm fed up with my current situation and the persona I have to maintain. I want to be myself."

The intensity emanating from Fang Yuan even took Han Mintao by surprise.

When she first entered the entertainment industry, Fang Yuan truly did shine for a moment.

But as time went on, she realized there were too many complications here.

Capitalists, resource providers, producers, operators...

Maneuvering among these people, she was like dancing on a dozen eggs, where breaking any one of them was not an option.

Only by going all in, becoming the capital herself,

would she have the confidence to disclose her past and perhaps fight openly in court to win Tuan Tuan back.

Han Mintao exhaled deeply, "I know you're doing this because of Chen Yu. His shop makes a good profit every day, but after all, it's just a small shop. Even if he works there his entire life..."

"Mom, I just want to ask you, can you set up a bet agreement for me?" Fang Yuan cut Han Mintao off.

She was truly scared now, who could guarantee that Chen Yu's shop wouldn't expand further?

Keep in mind that Chen Yu started with just a small food cart.

Han Mintao said no more and simply picked up the phone to dial a number.

Before long, she put down the phone.

"My agency can provide a guarantee for you, and at the same time sign a bet agreement with multiple financial parties!"

"You must earn five billion within the next two years! By then, you can leverage thirty billion in capital!"

"But if you don't succeed, you'll have to pay thirty billion!"

"Have you thought it through?"

Fang Yuan clenched her teeth, the image of Tuan Tuan flashing through her mind: "I have thought it through!"

...

At twelve noon, Tong Ya did not have lunch in the kindergarten canteen but heated up the flatbread and braised dishes she brought from home and placed them on the table.

After class, Tuan Tuan bounced over and sat directly across from Tong Ya.

At this moment, Li Juan also led a group of children to the canteen.

She was immediately attracted by the braised dish in front of Tong Ya.

"You brought braised dishes again today! How could you do this to us, bringing such delicious food every day."

The other teachers and students were also looking enviously at them.

After all, the aroma had already spread throughout the entire canteen.

In comparison, the meals provided by the kindergarten canteen seemed a bit inadequate.

Tong Ya giggled, "This is the love-packed lunch my husband prepared for me and our child!"

It was unclear whether she did it on purpose or not, but Tong Ya's voice was loud when she said this.

The teacher sitting by her side suddenly froze, looking at Tong Ya with a puzzled expression.

Li Juan moved closer to Tong Ya subconsciously.
