You got your marriage certificate and then abandoned me? I'll feed the richest woman in the wor

"Boss, if you keep holding me like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to go home to sleep tonight."

Chen Yuan sighed helplessly.

The deep voice faded into the rumbling thunder and rain outside the window.

The person on the sofa was sleeping soundly.

Two slender white fingers still gripped the gray cotton fabric tightly, without loosening their grip even slightly.

Chen Yuan couldn't bear to pull him too hard.

He took the thin cashmere blanket from the side with one hand, unfolded it, and covered her thin shoulders.

He leaned against the sofa base, closed his eyes, and made do with the night.

The next morning.

The rain has stopped in Jianghai City.

The early spring sunlight streamed through the glass dome of the SKP building, illuminating the imported fresh food supermarket on the basement floor.

The air conditioning was blowing cold air, and the air was filled with the salty smell of Australian lobster and the earthy aroma of South African black truffles.

The ingredients here often cost four figures per kilogram.

Chen Yuan pushed a silver shopping cart and stopped in front of the refrigerated display case for M9 grade Wagyu beef.

He wore a black casual trench coat open, revealing a pure white inner layer underneath.

His tall stature and aloof profile drew frequent glances from several wealthy women nearby.

But he didn't even glance at it.

My eyes were fixed on the snowflake-like fat texture in the refrigerated display case.

The socially anxious cat got frightened last night.

Today I'm going to make braised beef brisket with tomatoes; the sweet and sour flavor is perfect for whetting the appetite and calming the nerves.

His slender fingers pressed lightly twice on the surface of the Wagyu beef through the transparent plastic wrap.

It rebounds quickly and has a firm texture.

"The ribs are too loose; they'll become tough if you cut them and stew them."

Chen Yuan shook his head and spoke to the sales assistant in a cold voice.

"Change to the piece next to it with a bit of fat on the edge, yes, cut it into two-centimeter square pieces."

The sales assistant was taken aback for a moment, then quickly went to get it as he instructed.

This skilled and discerning eye is even more shrewd than that of an executive chef at a five-star hotel.

The organic vegetable section is separated by two shelves.

A strong scent of Chanel No. 5 perfume forcefully dispelled the fresh smells in the air.

Liu Ruyan, a top female star in the entertainment industry, is wearing a pair of sunglasses that cover half of her face, looking rather bored.

She wore a fitted haute couture trench coat that accentuated her graceful curves.

Two assistants carrying bags followed behind him.

"Has this kale been sitting here for more than eight hours?"

Liu Ruyan used two fingers painted with burgundy nail polish to disdainfully fiddle with the packaging box.

"The edges of the leaves are all wilted."

"You dare give me this garbage to eat? Don't you know I'm walking the red carpet next week?"

The two assistants were so frightened that they apologized repeatedly and rushed to get new ones.

Liu Ruyan turned her head away impatiently.

My gaze inadvertently swept towards the refrigerated display case, and I stopped abruptly.

His gaze was like it had radar, fixed intently on the man in the black trench coat.

She's seen plenty of young heartthrobs and tough guys in the entertainment industry.

Those people all had a greasy, ingratiating smell about them.

But the man in front of me is different.

He stood there, like a solitary peak covered in ice and snow.

The way he casually selected ingredients exuded a sense of composure and control over the whole situation.

What's even more deadly are those hands.

The way he held the fresh food container was powerful, and every movement was pleasing to the eye.

Liu Ruyan swallowed, feeling as if a kitten had crawled into her throat, making her itch.

She's a notorious player, and her favorite prey is the cold, hard kind.

Moreover, the way this man picked out the meat showed that he was an expert who was extremely picky about food.

If we could bring him back, it would satisfy both our appetite and our eyes.

This deal is incredibly worthwhile.

Liu Ruyan walked over, her ten-centimeter high heels clicking away.

She stopped when she was half a meter away from Chen Yuan.

The pungent aroma instantly enveloped Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan frowned slightly and subconsciously took half a step back.

This smell is giving me a headache.

It's nowhere near as clean as the peach scent on my cat at home.

Liu Ruyan raised her hand and took off her large sunglasses.

She revealed a face adorned with exquisite makeup, alluring and captivating.

This face is displayed on various GG billboards every day, and there are few people in Jianghai City who don't recognize it.

She raised her chin and flashed what she considered her most perfect smile.

"Handsome guy, you have a good eye."

She deliberately lowered her voice to a soft, drawn-out tone, with a subtle, almost imperceptible hook.

"I've been eyeing this Wagyu beef for ages, but you just had to pick it."

Chen Yuan didn't look at her.

I took the packaged Wagyu beef directly from the sales assistant and threw it into my shopping cart.

"First come, first served".

Four words, firm and uncompromising, leaving no room for negotiation.

He pushed the cart and was about to leave.

Liu Ruyan had never been ignored like this in her entire life.

She only needs to beckon with her finger to make those rich kids want to rip their hearts out.

This man won't even look at me?

A stronger desire to conquer rose within her.

He stepped to the side and blocked the shopping cart.

"Don't rush off."

Liu Ruyan crossed her arms and her gaze lingered brazenly on Chen Yuan's waistline.

"My name is Liu Ruyan, you must have heard of me before."

"I've been trying to control my weight lately, and I'm so sick of those weight-loss meals."

"You seem quite knowledgeable in this field, how about we become friends?"

She blinked her eyes, which were painted with upward-sweeping eyeliner, and they were incredibly captivating.

"I'm busy."

Chen Yuan pushed the cart around to the right.

My gaze fell on the deep-sea black tiger prawns next to me, and I wondered whether I should make some shrimp paste.

My little devil at home said yesterday that he wanted to eat seafood.

Liu Ruyan almost lost her smile.

She gritted her teeth and moved over.

"You're a grown man, coming to the supermarket to buy groceries so early in the morning, you must be either a cook or a nanny, right?"

Her tone carried a hint of condescending arrogance.

She tried to break down the man's cold exterior by using his wealth and status.

"How much can you earn in a month? Ten thousand or twenty thousand?"

Chen Yuan picked up a live black tiger prawn and weighed it in his hand.

Live shrimp bounced on my fingertips, splashing a drop of water into the pool.

He still ignored her and handed the shrimp to the staff to process.

Liu Ruyan was amused and annoyed by the stone in the latrine.

There is no door in this world that money can't buy.

There's no man money can't buy.

She snatched the limited-edition Hermès bag from her assistant and unzipped it.

He pulled out a gold-embossed checkbook and a Montblanc fountain pen.

With a few quick strokes, he signed his name on the paper.

With a flick of his wrist, he tore off the check.

She approached Chen Yuan again, wearing high heels.

The strong scent of Chanel No. 5 perfume is extremely aggressive.

Fingers pinched the edge of the thin paper.

Slide it along the marble countertop of the refrigerated display case.

Liu Ruyan pushed a blank check that smelled of perfume in front of Chen Yuan: "Fill in any number you like, as long as you only cook for me from now on."
