Su Xiaoyuan grew up in a suburban town and made a living with her superb pastry skills. She was called "Little Dumb" by her neighbors because of her round face, almond-shaped eyes, and slow reaction times. By chance, the peach blossom cake she made was tasted by the romantic and picky Lu Ziyan, the young owner of "Zui Xianju", the first restaurant in Beijing, and he was amazed. Lu Ziyan wanted to hire her with a lot of money, but found that this seemingly simple girl was full of mysteries: the unique dough kneading technique she used and her almost mysterious perception of ingredients all pointed to an identity that was deliberately concealed. Driven by both business competition and personal interests, Lu Ziyan pressed forward step by step, while Su Xiaoyuan, in order to protect her grandmother's legacy of "do not show off your skills to others", used her cute appearance as a disguise to quietly resolve the crisis and impress everyone in seemingly clumsy responses. The relationship between the two evolved from employment to enemies and friends, and they jointly faced challenges from food guilds, palace chefs and even old family grudges. In the end, in the process of uncovering the secrets of the rise and fall of the "God of Cooking" family, Su Xiaoyuan found a new meaning in the inheritance of skills, and gained true love with Lu Ziyan.
