Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group

Chapter 955: Chapter 930: No Comparison, No Harm

Alice is a mixed-race beauty with blonde hair and blue eyes, and an impressive figure, truly a top-tier beauty.

The women around Ye Chen paled in comparison to her, and even Ye Chen found himself somewhat moved.

”Alice is serving at that table, it seems this young man must have quite a special status.”

”It’s really envious; everyone dining here wishes they could receive Alice’s personal service, but no one else has been this fortunate.”

Guests at other tables looked over at Ye Chen’s side with envy; not only did he have beautiful company, but he was also being waited on by such a stunning foreign beauty.

Alice occasionally cast flirtatious glances at Ye Chen, teasing him, making others feel a bit itchy inside.

Seeing this, Su Wanyi was naturally displeased. She thought to herself, this foreign girl is actually flirting with Ye Chen right in front of her, completely disregarding her as the legitimate partner.

Despite thinking this, she couldn’t say anything, as it was a public setting.

However, Su Wanyi certainly had her ways. When no one was paying attention, she gently pinched the love handles on Ye Chen’s waist as he was engrossed in enjoyment.

The sudden pain almost made Ye Chen cry out.

Seeing Su Wanyi’s smug expression, Ye Chen felt quite wronged, thinking he hadn’t done anything wrong.

Ye Chen’s aggrieved expression made Su Wanyi cover her mouth and laugh.

Alice, of course, didn’t know what had just happened; she only looked at the two of them in confusion.

Ye Chen didn’t order dishes like the other guests because Rosen had already arranged the menu for him beforehand.

As the chef of this restaurant, Rosen had carefully selected each dish, and crafted them meticulously.

”This is the aperitif, the restaurant’s treasure, and Mr. Rosen’s prized collection, called Raphael. It has a rich flavor; please have a taste.”

Ye Chen knew that Rosen had reluctantly brought out this bottle just to curry favor with him.

Alice poured the wine for Ye Chen and Su Wanyi while making a gesture of invitation.

Ye Chen took a sip and nodded slightly; the price of this bottle was not trivial, with just this small glass costing nearly a hundred thousand RMB.

Though the wine was good, it depended on what it was compared to.

Ye Chen said lightly, ”It’s good, but a bit inferior compared to the ’81 Romanée-Conti.”

Alice’s mouth twitched, thinking these two wines aren’t even comparable.

If it was as Boss Ye said, many high-class restaurants would have to close down.

Alice was clever; although she thought this, she said, ”Naturally, the ’81 Romanée-Conti is world-renowned, and its price certainly isn’t low. Other wines would naturally seem inferior in its presence.”

The purpose of the aperitif is to stimulate the taste buds, allowing the guests to fully appreciate the extreme flavors of the dishes to come.

After tasting the aperitif, one dish after another was brought to the table.

Alice placed a golden dessert in front of Ye Chen and Su Wanyi, saying, ”Next, try this appetizer dessert.”

Meanwhile, she introduced the dessert: ”This dessert is called Golden Mountain, made with gold leaf, gold dust, and the world’s finest chocolate and cream.”

Upon hearing the name, murmurs rose around them.

”This Golden Mountain dessert is the most expensive in Lijing Pavilion, priced at over a hundred thousand RMB, and it’s gone in just two bites. This table is truly Divine Rich.”

”Looks like you’ve tried it? How do you know so much about it?”

”I’ve only heard about it; I wouldn’t bear to spend so much money just to taste a dessert.”

The average expenditure at Lijing Pavilion is over ten thousand, and that only gets you the restaurant’s most basic dishes.

High-end dishes like Golden Mountain are naturally out of reach for most people there.

So far, the only person who tasted Golden Mountain at this restaurant has been Ye Chen.

”Hmm, a good name, and it tastes excellent too.”

Ye Chen felt an increase in appetite after eating it, even though he had dined at many upscale restaurants, it was his first time tasting such a uniquely flavored dessert.

Su Wanyi, after taking a bite, also couldn’t help but praise.

”This is just too delicious; it’s the best dessert I’ve ever eaten.”

Listening to their compliments and seeing their satisfied expressions, other guests couldn’t help but swallow, longing to taste this earthly delicacy.

But as much as they longed for it, they lacked the money. Even those who had the money wouldn’t spend over a hundred thousand RMB just for a dessert that vanishes in two bites.

Then, under Alice’s introduction, Ye Chen also tried foie gras, golden caviar, Kobe beef, lobster, king crab...

In total, these more than a dozen dishes were all top-tier and Rosen’s specialties.

Of course, each dish was also not cheap, generally costing over ten thousand RMB.

Seeing the dishes on Ye Chen’s table, the other guests’ eyes were glued.

If calculated this way, the consumption at this table would be in the millions.

Other guests looked at their own meager dishes and then at Ye Chen’s table; truly, without comparison there is no harm.

”Look at that table’s full sophistication, and then look at mine, it’s just rubbish.”

”Truly Divine Rich, eating a meal worth over a million without batting an eye.”

”I’ve really opened my eyes today, seeing a boss spending millions on a meal for the first time. I thought being able to dine here already made me high-class, but compared to the boss, we really are insignificant.”

The vast majority of people dining here were trying to impress their girlfriends; spending ten thousand on dining already made them feel the pinch. If it weren’t to win over their companions, they’d never spend such wasteful money.

Though the dishes were tasty, the portions were pitifully small, but Rosen couldn’t be blamed. The focus of such high-end dining is refinement, not volume.

The saying goes, rarity is precious, right?

The same issue appeared at Ye Chen and Su Wanyi’s table; Su Wanyi only tasted a few bites of each dish.

But Ye Chen only felt somewhat full after clearing every last dish of the dozen or so served.

When the girls at other tables learned that Ye Chen consumed over a million worth of food, they all looked at Su Wanyi with envious, jealous, and hateful expressions.

Some even fantasized about being the woman beside Ye Chen, with some picturing themselves on a date with Ye Chen in their minds.

The other diners saw their girlfriends no longer looking at them but towards Ye Chen, and instantly felt like a vast plain had grown atop their heads.
