Su Wan possesses a rare talent - or a curse. Her taste buds can taste the intense emotion and even the fragments of memory poured into the food. This ability makes her a keen food critic, but also makes her an emotional island, unable to truly get close to others. Until she walked into a private restaurant called "Guixu".
The restaurant chef Lu Shen is a taciturn man with a cold temperament, but his cooking skills have reached a superb level. From his dishes, Su Wan tasted extreme loneliness for the first time, as well as... The fleeting smoke and betrayal. This smell is full of fatal attraction and unspeakable danger.
Curiosity drove her to open the door of "Guixu" again and again, trying to piece together the man's buried past from the plates of exquisite dishes. She doesn't know that when she tries to uncover Lu Shen's secret, she is stepping step by step into a whirlpool of lies, pursuits and old grudges. This is an adventure with taste buds as the medium, and a redemption with the soul as the bet. When food is no longer just food, how should we define love?
