[Period setting + feel-good story + food + everyday life] A huge piece of news has set the Red Star Machinery Factory workers' compound abuzz!
Lin Xiangyang, the factory's infamous "lazybones," has somehow made a dish during the preliminary round of the factory's skills competition that left even Master Liu from the cafeteria applauding in amazement!
Who is Lin Xiangyang? Apart from having a decent face, he can't do anything well and can't learn a thing. He's a hopeless case, about to be sent back to the neighborhood office when his temporary job ends.
His parents are going gray with worry, and his little sister gets angry just looking at him.
Lin Xiangyang, who has transmigrated into a book, looks at everything before him and wants to cry.
How could a disciple of a master chef end up in the body of a kitchen worker who can't even hold a spatula steady?
This isn't how the story is supposed to go! He clearly remembers that in the original novel, this cannon-fodder character was sent to a labor camp and died miserably after stealing factory supplies!
To stay alive, and to make the most of his extraordinary cooking skills, Lin Xiangyang decides to start by winning over the stomachs of every worker in the factory!
But what's with Su Wanqing, the "aloof factory beauty," always looking at him with suspicion?
What happened to her cold and distant persona? Why does she keep coming over to his serving window whenever it's mealtime?
Su Wanqing: Your cooking tastes even better than my dad's.
Lin Xiangyang: ...Of course it does!
Give it 5 stars first, I can't be the only one to be poisoned.
