Chapter 262: Chapter 262 Queen Elsa

A month had swiftly passed by. During this time, Chen Yu investigated the European market and found that since the entry of his cooking packs, the sales had been exceptionally good, and he feared that future orders might double.

After a simple market analysis, Chen Yu and Victor boarded the Queen Esha.

The number of families that came to attend the banquet was indeed considerable; almost ninety percent of the world’s super families gathered here, and many from the East also came to participate.

No sooner had Chen Yu settled down to rest than a middle-aged man approached him with a strange air.

“This must be Mr. Chen Yu. I really didn’t expect you to attend such a grand event. I just wonder how your culinary skills measure up. We should definitely have a good competition later.”

Chen Yu couldn’t help but frown. He had never seen this guy before, and the man had a somewhat effeminate appearance. Although he seemed male on the surface, his entire demeanor exuded an air akin to that of a ‘ladyboy.’

Katherine quickly stood in front of Chen Yu and blocked the fellow while reaching out a hand.

“Mr. Katolan, I truly didn’t expect you to come to this banquet. But I wonder, do you represent an organization this time, or are you merely here on your own behalf?”

Katolan laughed heartily, “Even if I represent myself, it’s all the same. After all, no matter which competition I enter, the fame that comes is mine alone. The organization is just a support; it doesn’t matter which one I stand for.”

Chen Yu instantly understood that the man before him was clearly a turncoat, representing whoever offered more benefits.

However, looking at the badge on Katolan’s chest, it seemed he was representing the Light Gourmet Society this time.

As they were speaking, Kadoran suddenly walked over and patted Kalanto on the shoulder.

“Mr. Kalanto, you’ve met your opponent so quickly.”

Kalanto laughed heartily, “Anyway, my competition with Mr. Chen has been scheduled for the first match, so of course I wanted to meet him in advance. Otherwise, wouldn’t it seem a bit awkward during the match?”

Chen Yu frowned again and cast a questioning glance at Katherine beside him.

He was here representing William’s family, and logically speaking, his competition should have been scheduled later. Why was his the first?

Katherine hurriedly leaned in to whisper into Chen Yu’s ear.

“Mr. Chen, on the ship, the competition is somewhat arranged according to the fame of the chefs. You have participated in so many international competitions before, so in a sense, your reputation ranks fairly high!”

Chen Yu let out a resigned sigh. Indeed, ‘the nail that sticks out gets hammered down.’

He didn’t say much more, though, and simply sat there, sipping his drink and paying no mind to anyone else.

Seeing Chen Yu’s behavior, Kalanto felt a surge of irritation. He had hoped to have a conversation to get a better understanding of Chen Yu’s personality and basic situation, but Chen Yu had ignored him completely.

Kadoran, on the other hand, cheerfully patted Kalanto on the shoulder.

“The competition is about to start soon, we should sit over there instead, otherwise the organizers are going to kick us out.”

Although Kalanto was irritated, he did not say much and simply followed Kadoran to take a seat nearby.

The banquet seemed extremely lively, but the organizers did not seem to want the attendees to interact too much. There was strict management, distributing the guests in various areas and leaving a huge space clear in the center of the hall.

Before long, two mobile kitchens were rolled up to the scene.

At this moment, an elegantly dressed lady made her way slowly onto the stage.
