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

Chen Yu looked up at the young girl who was speaking; she seemed to be called Wang Dan.

"How can that be? You all came from far away to seek refuge with me; I must ensure you have food, drink, and a place to stay."

No sooner had he spoken than the eight new girls felt just like Chu Hong and the others felt when they had first arrived.

Just then, Tong Ya, carrying a large cake and panting, entered the shop with Tuan Tuan.

"We made it just in time!" Tong Ya set the cake in the middle of the table, "Darling, happy birthday to you!"

Chen Yu was momentarily stunned, looking at the cake on the table and then at Tong Ya and Tuan Tuan beside him, before hurriedly pulling out his phone to check the time.

He had actually forgotten his own birthday.

Wang Qingshan was also somewhat surprised, "Today is your birthday! Why didn't you say so earlier? I didn't prepare anything."

The young girls like Chu Hong were also a bit at a loss.

Chen Yu waved his hand, "I really forgot! Alright, let's all eat cake! Ya Ya, pass me that knife."

Tong Ya's body trembled slightly, this was the first time Chen Yu had called her Ya Ya so naturally.

"I'll cut it for everyone!" Tong Ya, a little excited, started carefully slicing the cake.

But what they didn't expect was that the eight new girls were even more excited.

They had worked outside their home before, but this time, they found a place to stay as soon as they arrived, and there was food too.

Now they could even sit with the boss and eat cake together.

Each time Tong Ya handed out a slice of cake, she would receive thanks, "Thank you, sister-in-law."

Gradually, she felt somewhat elated.

Until everyone left, Tong Ya felt a kind of inexplicable happiness in her heart.

At ten o'clock in the evening, after bathing, the family of three went into their room.

Upon finding out that last night Chen Yu and Tong Ya slept together, Tuan Tuan immediately became unhappy, clamoring to sleep with them.

Tuan Tuan squeezed between the two of them on the spacious double bed.

From her birth until now, Tuan Tuan had never experienced this sense of security wrapped up by her parents.

Fang Yuan was frequently away from home, and all of Tuan Tuan's affairs were managed by Chen Yu; those unaware might even think Tuan Tuan was from a single-parent family.

Perhaps reveling in this feeling or for some other reason, Tuan Tuan, having just grabbed Chen Yu and Tong Ya's hands, drifted off into a deep sleep.

"Husband, give me your other hand!" Tong Ya mouthed silently.

Just as Chen Yu was about to reach out his hand, his phone began to ring.

He frowned, picking up the phone and saw that it was several unknown numbers, continuing to send him messages.

"Well, you dare to block me. Just you wait, one of these days I'll make sure your shop goes out of business."

"I hold sway over mainstream media; just a few news stories could ruin your reputation."

...

Chen Yu didn't need to guess to know, it was Han Mintao who had sent them.

He sighed resignedly; in the end, he was just a small shopkeeper.

And his influence only extended to Suzhou City.

Besides, the neighbors had become his loyal customers. How could they be swayed by a few fabrications?

Without a second thought, Chen Yu blocked these numbers.

"What's wrong, husband?" Tong Ya asked softly.

"Nothing, just an annoying person. I've blocked him now."

After that, they lay face to face, exchanging thoughts with a look in their eyes.

[System prompt: Host's savings have exceeded three million. Fifty thousand points can be spent to supplement the current package as needed.]

Chen Yu was momentarily stunned. The last supplement had indeed made his business structure more complete, and he had even acquired some machines.

Now his store was facing expansion, which was the perfect time for supplementation.

He silently chose 'yes,' and a flood of information appeared in his mind.

[Congratulations, host, on acquiring the complete breakfast series and the staple food series.]

Varieties of buns, sesame balls, desserts, tofu pudding, and porridge recipes instantly filled his brain.

It almost covered the entire breakfast series.

As for the staple food series that was supplemented, it included various rice dishes, noodle dishes, and even glutinous rice cakes and the like.

With these items, his store could indeed reach new heights.

But as these pieces of information surged into his head, a sharp pain suddenly emanated from his brain.

[System prompt: Host's brain is unable to adapt to receiving information at a fast and high pace. Suggested to proceed with a special lottery draw.]

Chen Yu was confused for a moment. He did have a headache because his mind couldn't handle the influx of information, but what did that have to do with a special lottery draw?

Still, it was a suggestion from the system, so without much thought, he clicked on it.

[Congratulations to the host for a comprehensive enhancement of intelligence and physical abilities. The body fat percentage will reach its optimal state by tomorrow morning, and you have also concurrently acquired basic mechanical theory knowledge.]

A storm of excitement surged in Chen Yu's heart.

The system had such a function!

At that moment, the pain in his head immediately eased, and the two series of information he had just received were instantly assimilated.

Even the basic mechanical theory knowledge that he had just received was instantly understood.

In the future, if he wanted to create something mechanical, he could do it himself.

However, it seemed a bit off to receive only this much for one million points.

Just as Chen Yu was internally grumbling, the system's prompt sounded again.

[Congratulations to the host, you have concurrently acquired a complete set of Sichuan cuisine skills (max level).]

The next moment, a vast number of Sichuan cuisine recipes emerged in his brain.

And he had a feeling that the skill of cooking was subtly embedding itself into his muscle memory.

Chen Yu's breath quickened; he suddenly felt as if his entire being had been transcended to some extent.

Moreover, from the mechanical theory knowledge he acquired, as long as he spent some time, he could set up a factory.

Specifically to make various semi-finished products and then supply his own shops, or sell them directly to other stores.

Such as various breakfasts, or marinades.

"What's wrong with you? I feel like your muscles just tensed up a bit."

Tong Ya sat up straight, nervously clutching Chen Yu's hand.

Chen Yu shook his head, "It's nothing, I just remembered something! By the way, do you like Sichuan cuisine?"

Tong Ya's eyes shone brightly: "Of course, I do. Don't you remember there was a Sichuan restaurant right outside our college? I ate there for several years."

Chen Yu smiled slightly, "Then I'll make a few dishes for you to try tomorrow."

"You can cook Sichuan cuisine!" Tong Ya exclaimed in shock, almost waking Tuan Tuan.

"Of course, once this shop stabilizes, I might even open a Sichuan restaurant."

Tong Ya's eyes were full of anticipation, "Then tomorrow morning, I'll go to the farmers' market and buy some vegetables."

Chen Yu nodded, tenderly stroking Tong Ya's cheek.

"Go to sleep early!"
