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

Zhou Shengtao was invited to be a judge, and no one present dared to utter a word of dissent. not even the old man.

To make such a competition legally binding, apart from having professional gourmets, it was also necessary to invite public officials like Zhou Shengtao to serve as the arbiters.

It ensured both the fairness and the regulatory compliance of the competition.

Zhou Shengtao had urgent business with Chen Yu, but seeing so many people waiting here, and since it was just a matter of sampling two dishes, he thought nothing more of it.

He simply picked up his chopsticks and tasted both dishes in succession.

"Both dishes are pretty good, authentic Sichuan flavors, but the Mapo Tofu is the superior one, with an excellent texture, and you can even taste something like crispy pork in this tofu."

At these words, the old man felt as if struck by lightning and retreated several steps involuntarily.

Chen Yu didn't hold back and went straight forward to take the bank note that was on the table into his hands.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the meals are on the house today! However, each person can purchase a maximum of two servings of any food in the shop, until 8 o'clock tonight!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present was immediately excited.

Chen Yu's cooking was already a local delicacy, and now that he was offering it for free, how could people resist?

The old man and the gourmets next to him were suddenly at a loss and somewhat bewildered.

They had come here full of confidence, intending to win over Chen Yu's restaurant, but instead, they ended up losing thirty million.

However, they dared not make any uncalculated moves, especially with Zhou Shengtao and officers from relevant departments present.

Taking advantage of the commotion in the crowd, they left the scene dejectedly.

Chen Yu then took Zhou Shengtao and a few of the officers up to a room on the third floor.

"Captain Zhou, didn't we just finalize the suspect? What's the problem now?"

Zhou Shengtao sighed helplessly and handed a stack of documents to Chen Yu.

"The problem isn't too big, it's just that the suspect's identity is particularly sensitive, and it's been causing us tremendous difficulties in apprehending him."

"Angelnorth!" Chen Yu couldn't help but exclaim.

This was a small country within the Arctic Circle, having gained independence less than a year ago—it was practically lawless territory.

To catch someone there was nothing short of a fantasy.

"That's right, luckily we have reached out to a global organization. This time it's a joint operation by major departments, but we absolutely must send someone who is in the know."

Chen Yu was looking over the documents and nodding subconsciously, but the next moment he seemed to grasp something and suddenly looked up at Zhou Shengtao with an indescribable gaze.

"Captain Zhou, you're not thinking of sending me, are you?"

Zhou Shengtao was a bit embarrassed: "This mission is a secret operation, and everyone involved must conceal their identity, and also requires a certain level of... "

"Captain Zhou, you're joking too much! I'm just an ordinary citizen, how could I possibly..."

Before Chen Yu could finish, Zhou Shengtao handed over an application form.

"Your application for becoming an external staff member has been approved, and since this operation requires a professional Portrait Artist, I could only ask you to go!"

Chen Yu's mouth fell open in disbelief. He had thought Zhou Shengtao was just speaking casually before, but it turned out that he had actually prepared an application form for him.

Before Chen Yu could speak, Zhou Shengtao began to take out some credentials.

"Chen, it's not that I want to do this, but the higher-ups instructed specifically for you to go, otherwise I would have gone in your place!"

"Also, if you successfully capture the target and bring them back, the reward from our department and the relevant global organizations will be at least one hundred million."

Chen Yu instantly felt like he had been caught in a trap.

If this had been before when he had nothing, he would have considered the hundred million for Tuan Tuan's sake and taken a chance.

But now that he had Tong Ya, he had to fulfill the responsibilities of a husband, providing her with a sense of security.

[System prompt: It is recommended that the host heads there immediately, as it will help in accumulating points for the future.]

Chen Yu was momentarily startled. His current source of points was solely his shop, and no rewards or even the factory had been included in the points system.

The sudden advice from the system left him puzzled.

Just then, Tong Ya entered gracefully, carrying snacks and tea.

"Husband, Zhou Sheng has helped us a lot recently. Since he's asking for help now, I think you should lend a hand," she said.

It appeared that Tong Ya had been eavesdropping at the door moments before.

Chen Yu turned around and took Tong Ya's hand.

"But you and Tuan Tuan..."

"It's okay! I'll tell Tuan Tuan that you're going to do something very heroic. Besides, as your wife, I will support you unconditionally, no matter what choice you make," she assured him.

Chen Yu let out a sigh of relief. With such a wife, what more could a husband ask for.

Zhou Shengtao coughed lightly, "Sister-in-law, don't worry. This time Chen Yu is just going as a portrait artist accompanying the team; there won't be any danger."

Tong Ya didn't say anything more, just nodded slightly to Zhou Shengtao and then left the room.

After Chen Yu and Zhou Sheng had finalized the travel plans, the afternoon flight was booked without delay.

By seven in the afternoon, Chen Yu was already on the plane.

However, to get to Angulna, one must transfer at Sumter, so all members of the mission would converge there.

The journey would take at least seven hours, so Chen Yu stretched and prepared to sleep a little.

But just then, a scream suddenly came from not far away, and the direction it came from became chaotic.

"Stewardess, it's bad. Someone fainted and is vomiting blood, and they're convulsing all over!"

Hearing the shout, two flight attendants quickly ran out.

They saw an old man with white hair lying on the floor, convulsing continuously and foaming blood at the mouth.

The flight attendants did not dare to delay and immediately organized first aid.

But no matter how hard they tried, the old man's condition showed no improvement, and even worsened, his face turning paler rapidly.

Chen Yu was also surrounded by passengers who got up from their seats.

From his angle, he could see the old man's condition.

He recognized it as a sudden heart attack; conventional emergency aid would only exacerbate the illness.

Fortunately, he had the ultimate medical knowledge within reach of human cognition in his mind.

After seeing through the cause of the illness, he rushed forward and pulled the flight attendants aside.

"I am a doctor, let me handle this!"

With those words, he placed his thumb below the old man's heart and pressed down hard.

A crisp sound of bone cracking suddenly rose, instantly silencing the crowd around them.

Anyone with a bit of common sense could tell that it was the old man's rib being broken.

The flight attendants nearby immediately became anxious.

"Sir, are you really a doctor? If you can't help, please step back and don't add to the confusion," one of them said.
