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

Two people furrowed their brows and stared at those scattering figures for quite some time before finally pulling out their cell phones and dialing a number.

"Boss, I don't know what happened, but everyone in the building has run off. Has our plan been blown?"

"Impossible!" a furious voice came from the other end of the line, "The plan was confirmed just an hour ago. How could it possibly have been exposed in such a short period of time?"

The two of them held the phone, not knowing what to say, just standing there blankly listening to the scolding from the other end.

Just then, a figure suddenly appeared on the rooftop. Before the two goons could react, they had already received heavy blows to their necks.

Chen Yu moved swiftly and casually picked up the explosive device from the ground, dismantling it.

Only then did the two men see Chen Yu's figure, and they hurriedly pulled out their automatic weapons from their waists.

But just as they were about to pull the trigger, two flying knives whizzed through the air, piercing their throats.

Jin Lingsu rushed to the side and furiously kicked the two men a few times.

"Quite the runners, making me chase you so far, practically half across the globe!"

This fierce manner even startled Chen Yu.

"Please, once you've caught them, just hand them over to the authorities. Why are you still..."

Jin Lingsu snorted coldly, "People as violently evil as these, it's done when they're killed. Besides, they're not from around here anyway. Even if you hand them over to the authorities, they still have to abide by extradition treaties."

Chen Yu felt somewhat helpless and began to search the bodies of the two men.

What surprised him, though, was that apart from some chaotic symbols, there was nothing on them.

He had planned to dig out the mastermind behind all this through these two goons, but now it seemed the only option was to notify Zhou Shengtao to take care of the bodies first.

"你这小子还挺幸运的!" Jin Lingsu suddenly stepped forward and snatched the symbols from Chen Yu's hands.

"These are the secret codes they use to communicate. With these, we can uproot them altogether."

Saying this, Jin Lingsu excitedly took a photo of these secret codes, then gave the originals back to Chen Yu.

Just then, the sound of police sirens blared outside. Chen Yu stood atop the building, looking down to see Zhou Shengtao leading a group of fully armed personnel storming into the building.

"Zhou's team is here, and it's not convenient for you to be here. Better go first..."

Chen Yu was just about to remind Jin Lingsu, but when he turned around, he found that she had already vanished without a trace.

With a resigned sigh, he could only quickly clean up the scene, wiping out all traces of Jin Lingsu.

Soon after, Zhou Shengtao and his team reached the rooftop.

"Chen Yu! I knew it, who else could be so bold, to face two thugs all by himself."

Chen Yu managed to squeeze out a faint smile and handed over the symbols in his hand to Zhou Sheng.

"Just happened to come across them, so I took care of it."

Zhou Shengtao, taking the symbols, immediately became excited.

"Wow, you've really done a great service this time. These are the secret communication methods we've been searching for!"

Without saying much more, Chen Yu just cooperated with Zhou Shengtao to make some notes before hurrying down the building.

Tong Ya and Tuan Tuan were anxiously waiting downstairs. Seeing Chen Yu come out, they immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

"Husband, you're finally down. I was so worried," Tong Ya said.

Chen Yu pinched Tong Ya's cheek, "It's alright, everything's been taken care of. It's just that we won't be able to attend the dance competition this time."

Tuan Tuan showed no signs of upset, "It doesn't matter, Dad. The teacher just called and said it was force majeure, and it'll be okay as long as we reschedule."

Tuan Tuan took out a small advertisement from his jacket and handed it over to Chen Yu.

"Since we still have time, why don't we try this small hot pot place? My mom said she loved it when she first came to Suzhou City."

Tong Ya felt a bit embarrassed by the side.

She had always wanted Chen Yu to accompany her to that hot pot restaurant, but Chen Yu was always too busy to have time.

Today, fortunately, there was a gap in his schedule, which she naturally didn't want to waste, but she was too shy to speak directly to Chen Yu, so she had Tuan Tuan act as a sacrificial pawn.

Chen Yu could obviously tell what was going on, he didn't say much and just flicked the small advertisement he saw.

"Then let's give it a try!"

Tianfu Small Street Hot Pot was one of the most famous hot pot restaurants in Suzhou City and also a national chain.

It was almost always packed with customers every day.

Compared to Chen Yu's shop, this place was much more upscale.

Whether it was service or environment, both were top-notch, and it was several times larger in size, occupying three floors.

Yet, like other hot pot restaurants, there were peak times and off-peak times every day.

Unlike Chen Yu's shop, which was at peak business from morning till night.

The moment they stepped inside, a strong aroma hit their nostrils.

Chen Yu merely sniffed and was able to distinguish the secret ingredients used in the hot pot base, as well as those of other minor recipes.

Moreover, it was clear that these formulas had been modified and improved.

In his mind, he already possessed a complete Sichuan cuisine system, through which he could find some similar recipes, yet they still fell short compared to the secret recipes of Tianfu Small Street.

It seemed that when it came to cooking, one couldn't always follow the recipes; there had to be some innovation.

"Good evening, the three of you, do you have a reservation?" asked a meticulously dressed attendant who came to greet them right away.

Tong Ya shook her head; they had decided to eat here on a whim, so how could they possibly have made a reservation?

The attendant didn't ask any further and simply smiled, pointing them to a relatively open area.

"This is our family space we've opened up specially. If the three of you don't mind, you can take a seat right away, no need to queue."

"Of course, we don't mind!" Tong Ya felt a surge of inexplicable excitement. Being treated like a family of three, it felt so blissful.

The attendant quickly arranged seating for them.

But just as the hot pot soup base was served, a man and woman barged in aggressively.

"This spot is nice, and the soup base is already here. We'll sit here," said the man with a menacing voice, a cigar clenched in his mouth.

The woman next to him looked provocatively seductive, but the heavy makeup on her face emanated a pungent odor that made one feel nauseous.

Even Tuan Tuan couldn't help but cough.

"I'm sorry, but this is a family space, please head over there to queue and make a reservation..." the attendant began.

"Shut the hell up with your bullshit!" the man exclaimed, grabbing the attendant by the collar. "Is this how you treat your customers? Call your manager over now."

The attendant was startled, as the man's arms were extremely thick, suggesting he must be involved in boxing or a similar profession.

Just as the attendant was about to be forcibly thrown out, Chen Yu flashed forward, one hand supporting the attendant's waist and the other grabbing the man's arm.
