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

Half an hour flew by, and Chen Yu's side was already emitting an intensely rich aroma.

But the other contestants were lagging behind, with some not even having their ingredients ready.

The slightly better ones had managed to cook the six dishes with a perfunctory main course put together.

As the competition time came to an end, Chen Yu had already set aside disposable bowls and chopsticks that he had prepared earlier.

"Everyone, come over here to eat!"

At this shout, the audience, who had already been drooling, rushed over en masse.

As early as the twentieth minute, Chen Yu's side had been wafting out such a tempting aroma that the audience couldn't resist.

Now, they could finally taste it.

Tong Ya was also among the crowd, taking a disposable bowl and helping herself to some rice and dishes.

Compared to the bustling scene at Chen Yu's station, the other chefs had a noticeably quieter presence.

Some even tossed their spoons to the ground and sat there sighing heavily.

Half an hour to cook six big pot dishes and a main course seemed impossible to them.

But Chen Yu not only completed the task but also cooked an extra soup.

In fact, the outcome of the competition was already clear at this point.

The on-site judges also joined the queue with the audience to get their meal from Chen Yu.

"These six dishes might look like home cooking, but each one is an authentic Sichuan dish. This chef must have studied Sichuan cuisine for at least ten years."

"The Mapo tofu melts in your mouth with a spicy and numbing deliciousness, truly exceptional."

"The taste of the potato stewed chicken is just right, delicious!"

"This rice is actually mixed grain rice! My god, in such a short time, he actually made mixed grain rice."

...

The exclamations on-site rose and fell in waves, and everyone began to regard Chen Yu as a culinary god.

Even the chefs who had come to compete resigned themselves and queued up at Chen Yu's station, wanting to taste the dishes he had made.

One senior chef, after taking a bite of the mixed grain rice, looked at Chen Yu with a horrified gaze.

"Young man, what method did you use? It's impossible to cook mixed grain rice in less than two hours."

Chen Yu smiled: "Actually, this traditional stove is part of our ancestral culture, each opening has its purpose! Like this last one, a large amount of high heat converges here, making it the best spot for cooking rice."

The chef slapped his own head: "How could I have forgotten that! I used a traditional stove when I was younger too."

The competition ended incredibly quickly. By noon, Su Rui had already announced the results.

Truth be told, everybody knew there was no point in continuing the competition. With Chen Yu there, like a culinary deity, they could only hope for runner-up positions.

"Ladies and gentlemen, that's it for today's competition, let's meet here again early tomorrow! Moreover, we will have some international celebrity chefs joining us tomorrow!"

After the competition ended, Chen Yu took Tong Ya back to the hotel.

To be honest, today's competition was indeed intense. Although Chen Yu completed it with ease, for the others, it was nothing short of hell mode.

After all, his physical condition had reached the human limit; even extreme sports would be a breeze for him.

Participating in such a competition was like bringing a dimension reduction assault for him.

Chen Yu stretched lazily, just as he lay down on the bed, Tong Ya came over and grabbed his waist.

"Husband, I saw you moving a lot just now, does your back hurt?"

Chen Yu smiled: "It's fine, my back is tough! It's really great."

Upon hearing this, Tong Ya couldn't help but think off on a tangent, her face reddening involuntarily.

"What about your arm? Do you feel any soreness or numbness?"

Suddenly, Chen Yu turned around and grabbed Tong Ya's waist.

"Then, sitting in the audience all day, didn't your back and waist become sore? Let me rub it for you."

Tong Ya let out a yelp, somewhat shyly covering her face.

Just then, Chen Yu's phone suddenly rang.

"Chen, can your place do wedding banquets?" Zhang Fan's voice came through on the phone.

Chen Yu frowned; his restaurant, including himself, had four chefs in total, and while it was not impossible to handle a wedding banquet, he had never undertaken one on such a large scale and was somewhat worried.

"It's possible, but you know the situation in my shop, it's always a mess. Taking on one or two tables is still manageable, but a wedding banquet on such a large scale..."

"No worries, Chen! The environment and all isn't important, and besides, my friend's wedding will be low-key, with at most seven or eight tables."

"In that case, seven or eight tables can be done!" Chen Yu immediately responded, "When exactly is it?"

"Next Monday, how does that sound?"

"That works!"

After the two had finalized the details, they hung up the phone.

Tong Ya, with her arms around Chen Yu's neck, "Hubby, actually I think our restaurant could handle even larger banquets, given how big the first and second floors are."

Chen Yu nodded in agreement.

The first floor was essentially allocated for the delivery guys, but there was still plenty of space left.

The second floor was mostly used for people eating breakfast, staying for just a few minutes each day.

Plus, the second floor was very spacious, and even with people there for breakfast, it only occupied one third of the area.

Not to mention a seven or eight-table wedding banquet, it could even accommodate twenty or more tables.

"Then we can try launching wedding feasts, birthday parties, and the like in the future!"

As they were talking, there came a knock at the door.

Chen Yu hurriedly put on his coat and opened the door.

Su Rui entered hurriedly, wearing a mask and carrying bags of groceries in both hands.

"I'm here to see you guys! Surprise or not, expected or not?"

Tong Ya pouted, "I bet you just wanted to eat my hubby's cooking! I know you too well."

Su Rui smiled sheepishly, "I've been here for the past two days hosting, hardly had a proper meal, and today when there was finally a communal pot, I still couldn't get any."

Seeing Su Rui's pitiful appearance, even Tong Ya couldn't help but feel sorry for her.

"Then hubby, I'm sorry, but you'll have to take the trouble."

Chen Yu didn't say much but took the groceries into the kitchen.

One had to admit, the convenience of this home-styled hotel was quite something.

After Chen Yu went into the kitchen, Tong Ya grabbed Su Rui's wrist, displaying a threatening demeanour.

"Today my hubby is making an exception to cook for you, but if you become famous later on, you must endorse my hubby's restaurant."

Slapping her chest, Su Rui assured, "Don't worry! As long as you need me, I'll be there anytime without charging a cent, ensuring you're satisfied."
