Upon hearing his daughter’s words, Father Su was absolutely incensed.

He even felt that his daughter had changed; when did the business world goddess Su Wanyi turn into someone so lovestruck, neglecting the bigger picture?

Actually, Su Wanyi was also feeling nervous inside. She wasn’t worried about the reputation of the Su Family; she was concerned that if Ye Chen failed, he would face mockery and taunts from everyone.

This was something she did not want to see. After spending a long time with Ye Chen, Su Wanyi’s maternal instincts were unexpectedly aroused. She couldn’t bear to see Ye Chen get hurt.

However, given the current situation, Su Wanyi wanted to do something to help Ye Chen but was powerless, so she could only silently support Ye Chen from her heart.

Ye Chen didn’t act immediately but walked away.

Everyone thought he was trying to escape and wanted to cause a fuss, but they noticed Ye Chen was only taking off his suit jacket.

Father Su also looked tense, thinking that if Ye Chen fled at this moment, it would be even more embarrassing.

How could Ye Chen be such a person? The word ”escape” was never in his dictionary.

He rolled up his sleeves, picked up the melon, and walked back.

Seeing Ye Chen’s actions, people began discussing again.

”That kid’s not really going to cook, is he?”

”I don’t think he looks like someone who knows how to cook.”

”He’s probably just pretending there.”

Ye Chen paid no attention to everyone’s chatter. He cleaned the melon and then sliced half with a knife.

He set one half of the melon aside, peeled the other half, and tossed it into the air; with a few swift swipes, the melon turned into slices.

Each slice was crystalline and thin as a cicada’s wing, showing how skilled Ye Chen’s knife skills were.

Ye Chen possessed Divine-level Cooking Skills, and for him, cooking was just a piece of cake.

The whole crowd was stunned, and the chef from the kitchen, alerted when the waiter gathered utensils, also came over out of curiosity.

Seeing Ye Chen’s slicing technique, even the head chef was amazed.

”Oh my, watching him slice is like watching a performance.”

”Look how he managed to finish off that half melon so quickly.”

”He’s truly remarkable.”

The chorus of voices was filled with praise for Ye Chen.

But Ye Chen wasn’t finished yet; he cut those slices into fine strips.

This left everyone even more astonished.

It’s simply a godly operation; surely someone with this skill can’t possibly be Ye Chen’s age.

After cutting the strips, Ye Chen placed them in water to soak.

Then he chopped garlic into small pieces, added them to a pan with oil, and soon the aroma was released.

Ye Chen took the melon strips from the water, put them in the pan, and added a bit of vinegar and salt.

Soon, a refreshing scent wafted out. Seeing the seasonings Ye Chen added, everyone knew this dish was vinegar-stir-fried melon strips.

After a while, Ye Chen poured the dish from the pan onto a plate.

For unknown reasons, while Ye Chen was cooking, everyone present felt as if their mouths were watering.

These attendees are used to eating delicacies; how could they all be so interested in a vegetarian dish like this? But indeed, they were eager to taste it.

Ye Chen placed the plate on the table and smiled, saying, ”Everyone can taste it and experience its magic.”

Upon hearing this, everyone disregarded their image and crowded around the table, grabbing the melon strips by hand and carefully savoring them.

”Delicious, it’s really delicious.”

”This is the most delicious food I’ve ever had.”

”Crisp, fragrant, and refreshing.”

Ye Chen’s dish of vinegar-stir-fried melon strips was truly a feast for the senses, as the refreshing aroma continuously invaded the guests’ nostrils and stimulated their taste buds.

Spicy food is said to vastly increase appetite, yet Ye Chen’s dish kept everyone indulging.

Due to the large number of people, the plate of melon strips was soon almost gone.

Seeing that everyone was enjoying themselves, Zhao Qing couldn’t help but grab a piece and put it in his mouth.

”The taste is really good,” Zhao Qing complimented while eating, completely ignoring Zhou Jun’s glaring looks.

Then someone suddenly said, ”I don’t know why, but after eating those melon strips, my headache is gone.”

Soon another said, ”I feel strangely energized.”

Then many people started sharing their experiences after eating the melon strips.

Father Su initially thought the Su Family would be embarrassed today because of Ye Chen’s impulsiveness, but unexpectedly everyone was praising Ye Chen, which made him quite happy.

Hearing the words from the crowd, Father Su found it unbelievable too. He approached and grabbed a slice to put in his mouth.

A miraculous thing happened; Father Su suffered from heart disease and was just angered by Ye Chen, causing his heart to ache. But suddenly, he felt fine.

His heart was beating like that of a young man, full of vigor.

”Young Master Zhou, you should taste it too; it’s really good, or you’ll regret it,” Zhao Qing kindly advised.

”It’s just stir-fried melon strips, after all; just a bunch of uncultured people,” Zhou Jun said with disdain.

While saying this, he put the remaining melon strips in his mouth, having been tantalized by everyone’s rush to grab them.

After all, Zhou Jun had been taunting Ye Chen, how could he openly eat something Ye Chen prepared? Fortunately, Zhao Qing gave him a way out.

After eating, Zhou Jun looked at Ye Chen with surprise, feeling like he had never tasted anything so good in his life.

Furthermore, he noticed the scar on his hand miraculously vanished, as if he had seen a ghost.

”Alright, since everyone has tasted these melon strips, you must have felt their magic, right?” Ye Chen smiled as he looked at the crowd staring at him and spoke with a smile.

Initially, everyone thought it was just an ordinary melon, yet unexpectedly it had such magical effects.

These people are very wealthy, and what they care about most is their health.

Since Ye Chen’s melon was so magical, they all thought if they could eat it regularly, it would be very beneficial for their health, and they all wanted to buy the remaining half from Ye Chen.

”Mr. Ye, I want the other half of that melon in your hand; name your price,” one corpulent middle-aged man said.

Not only him, but many present wanted to buy it, as it was something that could cure all ailments, far more effective than medicine.

”I’m sorry, this is my birthday gift for Grandpa Su; it’s not for sale,” Ye Chen said, waving his hand.

Ye Chen was not short of money at all; how could he possibly sell such a valuable item casually?
