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

Frankfurt may be the old base of William's family, but with the rise of the Edward Family, William's family's prestige here has plummeted.

There might even be eyes and ears of the Edward Family in this café.

Chen Yu didn't dare to stay here long, so after briefly discussing some details, he hurriedly left with Han Xiaohui.

At the eastern suburban street corner, several individuals with somber expressions and an aura of murder were hiding in the dark corners, seemingly waiting for something.

It wasn't long before Chen Yu and Han Xiaohui arrived there.

Upon seeing the two, these people burst out from their hiding spots, brandishing old-fashioned knight's longswords.

"These two are the reinforcements old man Victor called for? They're too young, what can they possibly do?"

"Who cares, Mr. Brown has already given the order—to bring back these two's heads."

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's do it!"

...

The gang was visibly excited, it seemed completing this job would earn them quite a reward.

Han Xiaohui had never witnessed such a scene and was already scared out of her wits, but she still instinctively positioned herself in front of Chen Yu.

As a secretary, apart from doing auxiliary work usually, she was to act as a bodyguard in key moments.

Besides, Chen Yu was Han Xiaohui's benefactor, and naturally, she would stand in front to protect him at such a time.

Chen Yu was taken aback at first, but then he grabbed Han Xiaohui's shoulder, pulling her back a step, and casually tossed out several pebbles.

He had sensed an extremely dense killing intent while walking over earlier, so he crushed a brick at the street corner in preparation.

These stones were thrown with great force, immediately knocking several people to the ground.

Their longswords crumbled to pieces upon contact with the flying pebbles.

One of them, who was physically stronger, managed to half-kneel on the ground using his longsword for support after taking several hits from the stones.

"Who exactly are you? Why are you opposing my Edward Family?"

Chen Yu found it funny that these people came to ambush him, and now they were asking him why he was opposing the Edward Family.

"Who I am is none of your damn business!"

Chen Yu stepped forward, his figure flitting through the assailants like a phantom.

In the blink of an eye, those men were scattered across the street, unconscious.

Chen Yu had sealed several acupoints on the back of their heads; even when they awoke, they would be mere imbeciles.

Chen Yu cautiously checked the surroundings to ensure there was no danger before leaving with Han Xiaohui.

Within the temporary office, Jin Lingsu had already completed the preliminary preparations and had injected large sums of money into the European stock market.

"Were you ambushed?" Jin Lingsu could tell something had happened just by looking at Chen Yu and Han Xiaohui's state.

Chen Yu casually sat down on the sofa, "Just a few lackeys, nothing serious! How are the preparations going?"

Jin Lingsu pushed the computer towards Chen Yu.

"As per your instructions, the account has been registered, and all the specific stocks have been marked. You can start buying in bulk whenever you're ready."

Chen Yu briefly glanced at the information displayed on the computer screen, then entered the password—all the funds were invested at once.

Jin Lingsu suddenly panicked, "Hey, you need to think this through, all my fortune is tied up in this. If I lose it here, what will I do after?"

Chen Yu didn't even lift his head, "You're already hanging the title of director with me, and you're holding shares on my behalf. You shouldn't have to worry about the second half of your life, should you?"

Jin Lingsu pouted, "This time it's a huge gamble, you could even throw yourself into it! Are you taking this too lightly, a bit too casually?"

Chen Yu didn't say much more, his fingers tapped rapidly on the keyboard, and at the same time, his mind was continuously updating with various kinds of information and skills.

The system had long designed a plan for the stock market for him, and right now, Ling Ling was sitting on his shoulder, personally guiding him.

It's just that no one else could see her.

While European stock markets were connected to Wall Street, they were also independent of the Wall Street system, so the closing times and methods were different.

Chen Yu took advantage of this dislocation in timing and loopholes to pour all his funds into specific stocks.

By the time his fingers struck the last key, the market had just closed, and all trading came to an immediate halt.

Chen Yu let out a sigh of relief; now all he needed to do was wait until the market opened the next day.

Jin Lingsu's face carried a bit of resentment as she had never felt such anxiety before.

This woman grew up on the wrong side of the tracks, having seen and been through everything. Saying she had eight hundred schemes up her sleeve wouldn't be an exaggeration.

But she had never touched the stock market, nor dared to touch it.

Without professional knowledge and a macro perspective, not only could you not make money here, but you might also lose everything you have.

If she didn't have absolute trust in Chen Yu, she would have never let him gamble all her fortune in the stock market.

At this point, even if she wanted to back out, it was too late—she could only wait for the results the next morning.

Early the next day, Jin Lingsu sat in front of the computer with red eyes, quietly waiting, not knowing whether she had risen early or hadn't slept all night.

Chen Yu somewhat helplessly took over the computer, opened the stock market page, and listed all the stocks they had selected yesterday.

As the opening bell rang, all the selected stocks surged in value. In less than half an hour, they had doubled.

"Xiao Hui, help me operate that computer, sell all the stocks displayed on the page."

Han Xiaohui was already prepared. As soon as Chen Yu gave the command, her fingers flew quickly across the keyboard.

Chen Yu was also decisive, and before long, he had sold all the stocks they held.

Minus the transaction fees, their investment from last night had actually doubled by now.

Jin Lingsu exhaled deeply, "Nice going, my money has just doubled!"

Just as she was getting excited, Chen Yu put all the money they had just withdrawn into a concept stock.

Jin Lingsu's spirits plummeted again.

"Making a profit once should be enough; are you trying to test how fast my heart can beat?"

Chen Yu didn't respond; he simply stared intently at the changes in stock prices on the screen.

The stocks he had just pulled out showed a rapid outflow of funds, causing the share prices to plummet to the bottom.

Meanwhile, the concept stock they had just invested in was crazily surging by forty percent.

Jin Lingsu also stared unblinkingly at the screen, feeling an inexplicable excitement at the sight of the surging stocks.

Then, in the next moment, Chen Yu suddenly let go of all the concept stocks he was holding.
