Su Wanzhao, the daughter of an exiled official, became a lowly cook in the Hou Mansion. She was discovered by Gu Zhaoyuan, captain of the Cuju team at Jixia Academy, because she was good at combining medical and cooking skills to make medicinal meals. She joined the bottom team as a "medicine chef + substitute player", used delicious food to solve the injuries and physical bottlenecks of her teammates, and led the team to counterattack from the bottom. Finally, she defeated the Houfu team of the arrogant noblewoman Lin Shuangyue in the Kyoto Cuju competition, winning the championship and dignity, and at the same time gaining love with Gu Zhaoyuan.
