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

"Actually, the main industry of the Edward Family is energy, and their rivalry with William's family might also be for that underwater oil field in the Nordic region."

The timid voice rang out quite unexpectedly, immediately drawing everyone's attention.

Chen Yu's little secretary, whom he had brought with him, had unknowingly made her way to the front of the large screen. Her finger was pointing at a business layout publicly disclosed by the Edward Family.

Such business layouts are usually designed to confuse competitors or to casually deal with the media; the amount of hidden information in them is minimal.

Moreover, the layout did not involve any energy issues.

Yet this little secretary was able to see through the essence at a glance.

Tong Ming suddenly became interested, "Then tell us, how did you figure it out?"

The little secretary's face turned red, and she was a bit flustered.

She had just left school less than a week ago, and her only work experience was a day at the front desk for President Gao.

It was only because of her good looks that President Gao had pushed her to Chen Yu's side, hoping to exchange some resources from Chen Yu.

As the little secretary panicked, she suddenly met Chen Yu's affirming gaze.

"This business layout map of the Edward Family on the surface is about the philanthropic activity of developing the Nordic permafrost, and the project is already halfway through, but I think this is just a smokescreen!"

"Less than five kilometers north of the philanthropic activity lies an underground field of oil and gas, and extending further north from there is the offshore oil field developed jointly by William's family and Charlie's family."

"With such a vast wealth in front of us, I don't believe the Edward Family would contentedly carry out philanthropic activities without profit."

Tong Ming suddenly stood up and laughed twice, "You guys claim to be strategic experts, yet you can't see as clearly as a young girl."

After mocking several directors beside him, Tong Ming once again fixed his gaze on the little secretary.

"So tell us, given the current situation, what should the Tong Group do in response?"

The little secretary now had a bit more confidence.

"Base ourselves in the East, stabilize our current industries and watch the tigers fight from the mountain! Edward Family's capacity is not as robust as William's and Charlie's families after all, even if they win, they will suffer greatly."

Tong Ming nodded in satisfaction, "Son-in-law, how come you always have such characters around you? Why don't you leave this young lady with me to be my secretary, how about that?"

"No can do!"

The little secretary suddenly shouted, then hurriedly moved behind Chen Yu.

She knew she was a gift from President Gao to Chen Yu, and if she were to run around carelessly, her parents wouldn't get the money they needed for treatment.

Chen Yu frowned, he naturally understood what the little secretary meant.

But on second thought, such a clever girl with strategic insight, how could she be so naive?

President Gao, a man on the brink of bankruptcy, was able to provide money for her parents' treatment; wouldn't a man like Tong Ming enable her to live a life of glory and wealth?

Tong Ming did not say much more but simply instructed the few secretaries milling around to go and prepare a strategic plan.

"Dad, it seems you have resolved the matters here, so I won't stay any longer. Besides, I'll take care of the matters with the Chu Family," Chen Yu said.

Tong Ming felt a bit helpless, "I don't know what that old guy is thinking, I've spoken to him many times in good faith, yet that little old man just won't listen. As if cooperation between the Tong Family and the Chu Family would cause the Chu Family to lose out!"

Chen Yu sighed softly. He had met Chu Jianghe several times; although he had a great business mind and a grand vision, he was also quite petty.

For such a person to bring the Chu Family to the status of the number one family in Shanghai was probably the limit.

"Perhaps besides sir, there's just some misunderstanding with us on certain matters."

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Tong Ming, Chen Yu left the office with his junior secretary.

"What's your name again?" Chen Yu asked casually as he started the car.

"Han Xiaohui!"

"Where did you graduate from?"

"Suzhou City University of Finance and Economics, Institute of Modern Economic Studies!"

Chen Yu paused for a second, realizing that Han Xiaohui seemed to be no more than twenty-one years old and had already completed her master's degree at such a young age.

Considering what Han Xiaohui had said in Tong Ming's office, she could certainly be considered a genius.

"Which hospital are your parents in?" Chen Yu continued to inquire.

"Suzhou City Fifth Hospital!"

Upon hearing the name of the hospital, Chen Yu's pupils shuddered slightly.

The hospital was located in a rather remote area that ordinary people might find hard to locate, yet it was a place eagerly sought after by cancer patients from around the world.

It was said that there were precedents of cancer patients being cured there, and the treatment plans were extremely humane; even if a patient failed to survive, they were allowed to pass on with great dignity.

Without saying much more, Chen Yu stepped on the gas and headed straight for Suzhou City Fifth Hospital.

Although the place was in the outskirts of Suzhou City, the area nearby was extremely bustling, with a variety of hotels and snack shops.

The throngs of people on the streets added to the liveliness of the place.

But if one looked closely, it was evident that these people's faces carried traces of despair. Walking on the road as if they had lost their souls, they seemed like the walking dead.

Chen Yu found a place to park his car and then escorted Han Xiaohui into the hospital.

In a rather large public ward, dozens of patients were crammed together.

Each one bore strange marks on their body, presumably from the treatments they had undergone.

Some patients with blood disorders were particularly emaciated, their skin covered in a ghastly hue of blue and purple, looking terrifying.

Upon seeing these people, Chen Yu couldn't help but frown; the disease had spread throughout their bodies, and not even a divine being could turn back the tide.

Even if Chen Yu's medical abilities reached the limits of human knowledge, he still couldn't bring these people back.

After taking a moment to regulate his breathing, Chen Yu approached a pair of adjacent beds.

Those were Han Xiaohui's parents lying there.

However, the bodies of the two elderly people were so hunched over that, even with respirators on, they appeared to be hanging on by a thread.

Chen Yu stepped forward to examine the couple's condition and found that they didn't simply have cancer but were also suffering from pneumoconiosis.

By his estimation, they must have worked for many years in coal mines or similar environments, having inhaled an exorbitant amount of dust that led to their conditions.

What Chen Yu found most frustrating was that the old couple's bodies had been ravaged by a mess of treatments, and getting them well again would likely require some effort.

"Go get these medicines for me; remember, you need to bring back six doses!"

Chen Yu handed the prescription he had written to Han Xiaohui and then continued to carefully feel the pulse of the two elders.
