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

"Ya Ya, actually, I think that, this kind of thing..."

"You should listen to me!" Tong Ya interrupted Chen Yu directly, "We are going to live our lives together."

"What if one day, we fall on hard times, Gold can still be exchanged for money! What practical use does a diamond ring have, other than being sparkly? Besides, you earned your money through hard work, not by it blowing in with the wind."

Chen Yu hadn't expected Tong Ya to be so considerate, putting herself in his shoes.

The sales associate, hearing this, felt somewhat helpless.

But envy was evident in her eyes.

She had sold engagement rings here and had seen countless couples.

Most girls would insist on their boyfriends buying them the best diamond rings.

They say the value of a diamond ring measures how deep a man's love is.

In reality, everyone understands that they do it for the sake of face.

Someone like Tong Ya was truly rare.

The sales associate didn't say much else, just took out the Gold ring.

Chen Yu, smiling, then headed to the Gold section nearby.

"Could you please get this bracelet for me!"

The saleswoman's eyes glittered as she hurried to comply.

The bracelet was worth thirty thousand, which meant a substantial commission for her.

Plus, this bracelet was the latest design, made out of pure Gold, with a layer of gold dust inlaid on top.

Chen Yu took the bracelet and immediately placed it on Tong Ya's wrist.

"What are you doing? I already said not to buy something so expensive!" Tong Ya was somewhat annoyed.

Yet Chen Yu held onto Tong Ya's hand tighter, "This is also made of pure Gold, it retains its value!"

Tong Ya's reasoning was used against her by Chen Yu just like that.

Still, Tong Ya pouted and tried to take off the bracelet.

"If It doesn't work out, consider it a gift in return for the phone you bought me."

Tong Ya felt helpless, not expecting Chen Yu to still remember that.

Before she could react further, Chen Yu suddenly dropped to one knee.

"Ya Ya, marry me!"

Tong Ya's breathing became rapid all of a sudden, and she nodded heavily.

In fact, Chen Yu's decision to propose wasn't a spur-of-the-moment idea.

Based on the current revenue of the store, he could buy it outright by the end of this week.

In another week, he could buy a relatively larger house nearby.

He was sure that he could provide Tong Ya with a stable future.

The once empty ring store suddenly had dozens of people appear at the entrance, cheering and clapping.

Chen Yu didn't linger there after paying, and took Tong Ya out of the mall.

On the way back, Tong Ya clung to Chen Yu like an octopus, not willing to let go even when Chen Yu was driving.

"Ya Ya, if we're captured on surveillance cameras like this, they might revoke my driver's license."

"What's there to be afraid of?" Tong Ya pouted, "If you lose your license, I still have mine! Just call me when you need a driver."

Chen Yu had no choice but to turn the car into a side street.

"Husband, when will we have our wedding!" Tong Ya asked with eyes full of anticipation.

"The end of July is a good day!" Chen Yu had already had a date in mind.

"Then next month, let's go take our wedding photos." Tong Ya gripped Chen Yu's hand even tighter.

By the time the two returned to the store, it was nearly ten p.m.

They tiptoed upstairs, took a quick shower, and then returned to their room.

That night, Chen Yu slept very soundly.

It was as if a stone that had been suspended in her heart finally touched the ground.

...

In a business winery in the Imperial Capital.

Fang Yuan and Zhao Hai sat at the counter, chatting merrily.

It was not until this moment that Fang Yuan realized that nearly all the resources she now had in her hands were provided by the Zhao Family.

Among the four major families in the Imperial Capital, the Zhao Family specialized in the entertainment industry.

Nearly half of the entertainment circle was in the hands of the Zhao Family.

As long as Zhao Hai was willing, Fang Yuan could replace Su Rui's former position in the shortest time and become the new leading actress in the entertainment circle.

"Miss Fang," suddenly asked Zhao Hai, "have you signed a gambling agreement with several capital firms?"

Fang Yuan was startled at first, then she put on a pitiable look.

"I had no choice, if I didn't sign, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to survive in the entertainment circle."

Zhao Hai drained the wine in his glass, "Some things, even if signed, are just a piece of paper. With just one word from Miss Fang, I can help you cancel the gambling agreement, and what's more, I'll let you get the capital you want."

Fang Yuan's pupils dilated slightly, she was well aware that there was no such thing as a free lunch in the entertainment circle.

Thirty billion in capital, to easily get it in hand, would inevitably require a price to be paid.

Just as she was pondering what Zhao Hai wanted to take from her,

a somewhat pale hand had already pinched her earlobe.

"The first time I saw a picture of Miss Fang, I was captivated by your ears."

Fang Yuan's body stiffened, and she found to her horror that Zhao Hai's expression had become somewhat gruesome.

And what was this bizarre fondness for her ears?

While she was at a loss, a person who seemed to be a reporter suddenly stood up and approached them.

"Mr. Zhao, Miss Su Rui has suddenly terminated her contract with her agency and left the entertainment circle. May I ask what your arrangements are for the lead roles in your upcoming films?"

This sudden question annoyed Zhao Hai.

"Which media are you from?" Zhao Hai snatched the camera from the guy's hand.

The next moment, from nowhere, a large group of media personnel suddenly appeared, surrounding Zhao Hai.

Fang Yuan then realized, taking the opportunity, she slipped away from the crowd.

She knew that this was a escape plan Han Mintao had specially arranged for her.

In a rush, she left the winery and bolt plunged into the nanny car parked at the roadside.

Han Mintao also breathed a sigh of relief, "All right, my girl, leave the rest to me for public relations. You just need to focus on your acting."

Fang Yuan chugged a large glass of water, trying to calm her heavy breathing.

A moment ago, she had suddenly felt an extremely terrifying and perverse sensation from Zhao Hai.

...

Not until five in the morning did Chen Yu get out of bed and go downstairs.

He had found that last night was the most sound sleep he'd had in over twenty years.

Perhaps it was because from now on, he could truly have a stable life.

At this moment, the entire shop was already running smoothly.

Ning Kai and Li Gang were also extremely fascinated by the techniques of making fried cakes, savory turnovers, and braised delicacies.

They even started to learn.

At eight in the morning, Tang Xiaowei and Su Rui hurried into the shop.

They found a corner as soon as they entered and hid.

Both of them wore masks, covering themselves tightly.

In the heat of summer, anyone would find it a bit glaring.

Just as Chen Yu was about to go over and ask, he suddenly noticed several men with cameras sneaking around at the doorway.

Without having to think about it, Chen Yu knew these guys must be paparazzi.
