Chapter 123 – 123 Wilderness Survival

By the time he left the relevant department, it was already seven in the evening.

Chen Yu stood at the doorway stretching lazily, his face filled with gloom.

He suddenly realized that he had been a bit negligent of his proper business.

Originally, his restaurant had been doing well, and with the culinary skills provided by the system, he could have continued to expand his shop.

But now, instead of managing his business, he was either participating in survival competitions or providing medical consultations, and, today, he even ended up at the relevant department to assist with a criminal case.

However, the skills granted by the system did indeed give him the capabilities he needed.

And these so-called distractions had begun to feel like a way of giving back to society.

With this thought, Chen Yu felt somewhat reconciled.

“Bro Yu, it seems I’ve delayed you for half a day!”

Chen Yu scratched his head in embarrassment, “It’s okay, just think of it as making a contribution to society.”

“Wait!” Zhou Shengtao shouted as he hurried out after them.

“I forgot to tell you guys, we’ve been chasing this gang for a whole ten years, and there’s a reward for their capture. You can bring this proof to me later and claim the reward.”

Chen Yu took the certification that Zhou Shengtao handed over and was immediately shocked by the figure of three million on it.

“Well, Xiaowei, since your studio has just opened, consider this three million as compensation for you,” he said.

Tang Xiaowei waved her hands repeatedly, “I can’t accept it. You drew the last few portraits all by yourself, and I didn’t really help.”

Chen Yu gestured with his hand, “Then, let’s do this, we’ll split it half and half, and don’t argue with me about it anymore.”

Tang Xiaowei didn’t know what to say.

Her studio had just started up, and being in the animation business, it was quite costly.

Moreover, Chen Yu had made his stance clear, so she felt it was inappropriate to refuse any further.

No sooner had Chen Yu entered the shop with Tang Xiaowei than the system’s notification rang in his mind.

[Congratulations to the host for completing a day’s business. Since costs exceeded profits, no points have been accrued.]

At that moment, the shop was empty. Li Gang and Ning Kai had prepared the staff meal and were waiting for Chen Yu to come back to start eating.

In the afternoon, Chen Yu had already ordered the materials needed for the next day, which had now been moved into the warehouse.

A sense of gloom rose in Chen Yu’s heart again. It seemed as though he hadn’t done anything that day, yet somehow everything was taken care of.

With a helpless sigh, he sat down to eat with everyone.

Just then, Chen Yu suddenly received a text message.

“Son-in-law, sneak out and come to the business van at the crossroads.”

Chen Yu raised an eyebrow; it was the first time he saw Tong Ming being so secretive.

“I have something to take care of, I’ll be back!”

After giving a perfunctory notice to the others, Chen Yu left the shop with feigned calmness and quickly spotted the business van at the crossroads.

As soon as he got in the van, he saw Tong Ming holding an invitation.

Before he could even ask, Tong Ming looked at him with a pleading gaze.

“Son-in-law, do you have any idea how famous your last chef competition has become internationally?”

Chen Yu coughed lightly, “I’m aware! What about it?”

“You see, there’s this wilderness survival show that I need you to attend,” Tong Ming said.

Chen Yu’s eyes widened, “You’re not kidding, right?”

Tong Ming appeared somewhat helpless, “After you climbed the cliff to pick goose-neck barnacles last time, it triggered the competitive spirit of several wilderness survival experts abroad, and they have collectively issued a challenge to you.”

Tong Ming pushed the invitation into Chen Yu’s hands.
