Chapter 242 - Chapter 242: Chapter 242 Bronze Square Tripod (2/2)
“No harm, it’s just a square tripod, nothing serious! I have plenty of other nice things here. If either of you is interested, I can give it to you when you leave.”
After exchanging pleasantries, Zhao Hai left the place with his people, visibly irate.
If Zhao Hai knew that Fang Yuan, whom he had just been jealously guarding, was Chen Yu’s ex-wife, who knows if he would have died of anger.
Chen Yu didn’t say much, but went straight to a bracelet, shattering the glass covering it with his own hands.
Zhao Hai, who hadn’t gone far, suddenly turned around, his body jolting once more.
That was the personal bracelet of Empress Xiao of the Liao, rumored to be forged from a metal refined from the Meteorite from Beyond the Heavens—there’s only one like it in the world!
Chen Yu looked at Zhao Hai as if it were only right and said, “Young Master Zhao, this was something you allowed me to take as I pleased!”
Zhao Hai swallowed his anger and turned to leave.
At noon, the grand hall on the second floor was incredibly lively.
Representatives from more than half of the top hundred families in the world were present, fully honoring the Zhao Family.
However, many of them did not directly interact with the Zhao Family, instead doing business with each other.
Just as Chen Yu was looking for a place to grab a bite to eat, a figure suddenly ran over from the side.
“Mr. Chen, you’re here too!”
Katherine held a glass of red wine, her face beaming with excitement.
Chen Yu returned a smile, “Just bored and out for a stroll!”
Katherine respectfully bowed and then greeted Jin Lingsu and Tong Ya beside her.
Their familiarity startled the people nearby.
People from William’s family prided themselves on their aloofness, never mingling with outsiders easily, especially people from the East.
Onlookers began to speculate about Chen Yu’s identity, with some even snapping his photo and searching for him online.
“My God, that man has competed in a world-class culinary contest, and he even won the title of Culinary God. He appears to be treated as an honored guest by William’s family!”
“Moreover, William’s family has announced to the entire Western world that Chen Yu can represent William’s family in full capacity to some extent!”
…
As a flood of information was uncovered, everyone gained a new understanding of Chen Yu.
Some even looked at him with admiration.
Chen Yu didn’t care about all this; he just chatted idly with Katherine.
“Mr. Chen, if I had known you were coming, I would have prepared. I’m embarrassed by my appearance! You must find it funny,” Katherine said.
Chen Yu waved his hand dismissively, “There’s no need to worry about these things. By the way, are you the only one from William’s family this time?”
Katherine nodded, “For gatherings like these, the main members of the family seldom attend. They just send a representative symbolically. Besides, the Zhao Family and William’s family don’t have much business dealings, so there’s no need to give them too much face!”
Chen Yu chuckled twice, seeing that the Zhao Family’s standing in the world wasn’t all that.
As they spoke, a portly fellow suddenly approached and sat firmly opposite Chen Yu.
“I just looked up your information and found out you’re a Culinary God. I am too, so why not take this opportunity to have a contest!”
Chen Yu frowned; he had come on a mission, not to casually compete in cooking with someone else.
“Sorry, but I don’t have that kind of spare time. Besides, I’m here to dine with my wife and kids. How could I possibly compete with you for no reason!”
