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

At three o\'clock the following dawn, Chen Yu got up early to wash and rinse himself.

However, he suddenly felt that his old clothes seemed a bit tight.

Before this, Chen Yu had been one meter seventy-eight tall, but overnight he seemed to have grown by four centimeters.

And his weight didn\'t appear to have changed much.

The face in the mirror, although still his, looked much more handsome and trim than before.

He could even compete with today\'s top young heartthrobs.

Chen Yu\'s breath even halted for a moment.

The one million points spent were indeed worth it!

Most importantly, he didn\'t feel sleepy at all, not even a bit tired.

From last night until now, he had only slept for less than five hours, something inconceivable before.

After finding some looser clothing, Chen Yu went downstairs to the kitchen in high spirits.

After starting the dough mixer, he cleaned up the pig\'s head and elbows as usual.

But this time, he felt that he was faster than before.

By the time Wang Qingshan and the fourteen girls came in for work, the first batch of marinated delicacies had already come out of the pot.

"Boss Chen, you rise earlier than us workers every day, and today you even got the first round of marinated food done. This makes us workers quite embarrassed," one of them said.

Chen Yu waved his hand, "I just couldn\'t sleep, so I came down early to do some work!"

"By the way, Master Wang, don\'t always call me boss. You can call me Little Chen, or Old Chen, or even by my name directly if you want to. It\'s much friendlier that way."

Wang Qingshan scratched his head somewhat sheepishly.

In the culinary world, the hierarchy between chefs and apprentices is quite clear.

No matter the age, if you\'re an apprentice, you must address the other as \'master\'.

It was rare for someone like Chen Yu not to fuss over titles.

But on second thought, those formalities indeed seemed a bit impersonal.

"Then I\'ll just call you by your name from now on!"

Chen Yu patted Wang Qingshan on the shoulder, "That\'s more like it. Since we\'re all working together, we\'re family! I don\'t want my shop to be stiff and impersonal like others", lacking warmth and friendliness.

Just then, Chu Hong seemed to notice something was off.

"Brother Yu, I feel like you\'ve gotten taller and even more handsome. Am I seeing things?"

Chen Yu cleared his throat lightly, "Didn\'t I celebrate my birthday yesterday? It\'s normal to grow a bit taller over a year."

The crowd looked at Chen Yu with a skeptical gaze.

Usually, by their age, the growth plates in bones have closed, making it unlikely to grow taller.

Even these young girls had basically stopped growing in height.

Yet Chen Yu had managed to grow taller.

"Alright! We\'re on the clock now, everyone should focus on their duties."

Chen Yu quickly changed the subject.

After all, having grown taller and become more handsome overnight was indeed a bit miraculous.

It wasn\'t like he could divulge the secret of the system, could he?

All the raw materials for fried cakes and dumplings in the storeroom had been prepared into semi-finished products.

Therefore, only four girls remained in the upstairs kitchen, with the others acting as a mobile workforce.

They would go wherever they were needed the most.

By eight in the morning, the flow of customers had already peaked.

Yet suddenly, Wang Qingshan became nervous.

He discovered that today, Chen Yu\'s techniques and speed were both much faster than before, even twice as fast.

All morning, Wang Qingshan had been struggling to catch up, but no matter what, he was left far behind by Chen Yu.

He suddenly had a feeling that Chen Yu had never been giving his all before.

Perhaps he had been considering his pride.

"Chen Yu, you don\'t want me to call you master, but I feel it\'s almost unjustifiable! I\'ve been in the braised food business for ten years and have made a small name for myself, but here with you, I feel just like a primary school student."

Chen Yu immediately felt a bit embarrassed, "Master Wang, you flatter me!"

By now, five large pots had been set up in the kitchen, and the braised foods from the early rounds had already been transferred into the large pots to keep warm.

With today\'s speed, even if customer traffic doubled, they could keep up. Hmm.

Just then, Tuan Tuan bounced into the kitchen.

"Dad, are you going to go shopping with us? Mom said she can\'t predict what you\'re going to make."

Chen Yu quickly washed his hands.

Last night, when he received the complete set of Sichuan cuisine information, part of it was specifically about selecting ingredients.

Within the Sichuan cuisine system, some dishes have extremely strict requirements for ingredients.

A slight deviation could make the taste come out all wrong.

Wang Qingshan was somewhat puzzled and asked without thinking.

"Aren\'t we having braised foods for the staff meal today?"

Tuan Tuan nodded cleverly, "Yes, Uncle Wang, Dad decided to show off his skills and cook Sichuan cuisine for us."

Wang Qingshan\'s pupils dilated suddenly, looking at Chen Yu with some astonishment.

"You know how to cook Sichuan cuisine?"

Chen Yu smiled and nodded, "I just have a rudimentary knowledge!"

After replying somewhat perfunctorily, Chen Yu went out with Tuan Tuan and Tong Ya.

They hadn\'t left the shop for long when Tong Ya also sensed something was amiss and suddenly ran in front of Chen Yu.

"Your clothes look a bit ill-fitting! Plus it seems like you\'ve grown taller and even more handsome."

Tuan Tuan also ran over in surprise, "Yeah, I hadn\'t noticed."

Chen Yu raised an eyebrow; this wasn\'t the first time today he had heard someone say this.

His response remained the same; it was a birthday wish he made yesterday that accidentally came true.

Hearing this response, Tong Ya couldn\'t help but laugh out loud.

She clearly heard the sounds of Chen Yu\'s bones rattling away last night.

Biologically speaking, at Chen Yu\'s age, most people\'s growth plates have already closed.

But there are rare exceptions, and perhaps Chen Yu was one of them.

"Then how about we first go to the mall and buy you some new clothes? You are a boss after all; it doesn\'t seem appropriate to dress like this."

Saying so, Tong Ya directly pulled Chen Yu into the car.

Suzhou City Center Mall is one of the most comprehensive and upscale commerce centers in Suzhou City.

There\'s a fashion street here, known for its high-quality and branded apparel.

Tong Ya was very familiar with this place and took Chen Yu there.

But when they arrived, they found that the plaza in front of the mall was occupied, as if there was an advertisement being filmed.

The whole plaza was packed with people, and many fans were taking photos with their phones.

Chen Yu had no interest in star-chasing, and the three of them went straight into the mall through the back entrance elevator.

Just as they got off the elevator and were crossing the corridor, Chen Yu unexpectedly saw that Fang Yuan was the one filming the advertisement below.

At the moment, she was acting with a rather handsome popular idol.

It seemed they had worked together before, as their expressions and eye contact during the shooting were just right.

They looked like an actual couple.
