I am Jiang He, an official lady who just wants to cook quietly. Nai He has a special ability - he can "empathize" with the ingredients. In the eyes of my parents, this ability was like having no ability, until I was forced to "sign a contract" with Xie Zhixing, the most difficult young man in Beijing.
Mr. Xie has a distinguished family background and outstanding knowledge, but unfortunately he has lost his sense of taste. He made a devil's deal: I would be his "ingredient translator" to investigate his father's unjust case; he would be my sharp-tongued mentor to improve my cooking skills.
So, I solved the case in the radish and cabbage during the day, and at night he made a sharp comment: "The heat is acceptable, but the ingredients have no soul exchange."
I thought it was a cold mutual use. But later——
My whole family went from guarding against him like a thief to leaving food and soup for him;
This ice face actually makes his hands shake worse than mine when I'm in danger;
What's even more frightening is that the two of us investigated the kitchen dispute all the way to the imperial dining mystery case, and actually uncovered a terrifying conspiracy that had been dormant for ten years and affected the country.
Now, a salty fish cook and an anorexic powerful man must join forces to uncover the truth using spatulas and tongues, and by the way... Make each other "really delicious".
