Chapter 206: Chapter 206: Syndrome of Dry-Heat

"My goodness, how did you do that? This is the first time I've ever seen anyone turn fried rice into a golden color!"

"What are those red and green things? They're so pretty!"

"Why do I smell a sweet fruit scent?"

...

Just as the crowd gathered around, those two burly men had already embraced two servings of fried rice and were wolfing it down.

In fact, these two people's requirements weren't very high; all they wanted was a certain feeling from the taste.

Chen Yu had known at first glance that the two men were suffering from a heat-related illness due to the hot weather.

Although this illness didn't cause any substantive harm to the human body, it could make a person's sense of taste deviate temporarily.

Some people, after catching this illness, even developed a severe case and would eat things like sand or even rust.

Chen Yu had simply added some heat-relieving sour plums to the fried rice, allowing them to fully integrate with the starch in the rice, creating a new flavor.

It not only stimulated their taste buds but also cured their heat-related illness.

The two men suddenly looked at Chen Yu with excited eyes.

"Is there more? I can eat ten more bowls!"

Chen Yu couldn't help but raise an eyebrow; where was he going to make that much food in such a short time?

The plums and other seasonings were all local specialties, but the main staple food for the locals wasn't rice but baked starch foods like bread.

The rice used for the fried rice just now was some leftovers from the owner himself.

Before Chen Yu could speak, the owner suddenly grabbed his arm.

"Sir, could you do me a favor and make some more fried rice? You can keep all the profits from tonight!"

Chen Yu frowned, as he had only intended to help out as a convenience, not to get himself roped in.

But when he saw the people before him, he felt a surge of compassion.

Like those two burly men, they all had varying degrees of heat-related illness and could potentially face problems if not treated promptly.

Without saying much more, he turned and entered the kitchen, where the owner quickly took out two bags of rice.

This was his treasured stock!

After all, not many shops in this area had rice.

Hearing the system's notifications, Chen Yu felt a bit of relief; at least there was some gain.

Ever since the system upgraded, he hadn't heard the daily point tally chimes anymore.

However, thankfully, although the points seemed very few now, the value brought by each point was much greater than before.

It wasn't long before he steamed three pots of rice, processed the rice a bit, and then started stir-frying it in the pan. Searᴄh the ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

The customers outside had already become impatient, forming a long queue at the entrance of the small shop.

Other passersby also stopped in their tracks, some even inexplicably lining up as well.

As more than a hundred servings of fried rice were sold, Chen Yu accumulated over two hundred points.

Moreover, he had taught the owner how to make this plum fried rice.

Even as he left, the points continued to steadily accumulate.

Early the next morning, Chen Yu and his family of three headed straight for the church.

After a night of preparation, the place had been transformed into a resplendent and magnificent palace.

Basically, all the prominent figures of the West had arrived, with Victor, supported by Katherine, shuffling into the church.

His excitement surged when he saw Chen Yu.

"Mr. Chen," he exclaimed, "you left in such a hurry last time that we didn't get to discuss some of the cooperation projects in detail! Fortunately, Katherine signed a three-hundred-million-dollar contract with you. From now on, we are partners."

Chen Yu felt somewhat embarrassed; to William's family, a three-hundred-million-dollar contract was but a drop in the ocean.

Yet Victor valued it so highly, which was enough to prove that he now considered Chen Yu one of his own.

After exchanging a few polite smiles, the group entered the church together and found a rather conspicuous place to sit.

No sooner had they sat down than the people next to them began handing over their business cards.

Since Chen Yu and Victor were so close, everyone thought of Chen Yu as some big shot from the East.

Tong Ya also took the opportunity to discuss some cooperation with Victor.

Although the wedding had not yet started, all the business tycoons had already taken their seats, turning the place into a sort of business gathering.

It wasn't until twelve noon, when the priest appeared, that the scene gradually quieted down.

Brown and Fang Yuan entered the church slowly under the envious eyes of all.

The Edward Family, being an ancient Western royal lineage, conducted their wedding with the splendor of a royal ceremony.

At that moment, Fang Yuan was dressed like a queen, eliciting the envy of many women.

No matter what the purpose of the wedding was, marrying into the Edward Family was a woman's highest honor.

Just as Brown and Fang Yuan were about to receive the priest's blessing, Fang Yuan was startled to see Chen Yu in the crowd.

Her heart was suddenly overwhelmed with emotions; she had not expected to see Chen Yu at this event.

What surprised her even more was that Chen Yu hadn't glanced her way the entire time, only speaking in low tones with Victor.

And when her gaze drifted over to him, Tong Ya suddenly straightened her back, grasping Tuan Tuan with one hand and Chen Yu's arm with the other.

It seemed like a display of defiance.

Fang Yuan's eyes widened, her body trembled slightly, even the bouquet in her hand swayed involuntarily.

Brown frowned and quickly reached out to grasp Fang Yuan's arm.

Han Mintao, who followed behind, was also startled by the situation.

At today's event, those invited to attend the wedding were all distinguished figures of the West, many of whom were even descendants of royalty.

But he had never expected Chen Yu to be among them, and even more so with an invitation.

This was enough proof that Chen Yu, to some extent, could sit on an equal footing with these Western tycoons.

Han Mintao's breathing became rapid as she subconsciously prayed in her heart, hoping that this marriage wouldn't just remain a contract on paper but would materialize in reality.

Perhaps only then could she and her daughter use the name of the Edward Family to get everything they desired.

At least, they wouldn't be trampled underfoot by Chen Yu.

At that moment, the priest respectfully turned to Victor.

"Mr. Victor, as the eldest and most honored person here, could you please place the engagement rings on the couple?" the priest asked.

No sooner had the words been spoken than Victor respectfully assisted Chen Yu to stand.
