Gu Shuyan, the royal chef at the state banquet, was falsely accused of arson overnight. The three hundred dishes he had cooked by hand were reduced to ashes. He returned to the stove like crazy and recreated each dish from the ashes. After three years of hibernation, he returned to the top of the culinary world with an incomplete sense of taste and scars all over his body. And the talented perfumer Lu Jinhe, who had shielded him from all stigma but quietly retired, was actually reconstructing his taste map in the dark - using fragrance to find flavor and using soul to continue the fire. When the century-old state banquet begins again, the two confront each other between the burning flames and the cold incense. One wants to clear up his grievances, and the other wants to burn away the lies with his own hands.
