Guo Keyun is a beautiful restaurant owner who can host a banquet or cook up a meal, is an expert at preparing seafood, and knows her way around money. One careless move, though, and a little pufferfish takes her life.
As the saying goes, if you spend enough time by the sea, you’re bound to get wet.
She thinks that saying is wrong. It should be changed to: Spend enough time by the sea, and your soul will follow.
And so her soul passes through the vastness of time and space in a strange yet harmonious way, landing in the body of a young woman with the same name.
The good news: The girl in the mirror looks much like her, only three parts younger, making her even purer and more charming, with a delicate, lovable air.
The bad news: Her mother is frail and ill, her father is rarely home, and the family is dirt poor.
If she doesn’t make money soon, her critically ill mother will have to go without medicine!
How can she make money?
Go back to her old trade: open a restaurant!
How can she make a fortune?
Though she knows there are tigers on the mountain, she heads there anyway: she’ll open a restaurant on the sea!
Li Ziyu thinks his childhood sweetheart has gone mad. She wants him to help her open a restaurant at sea.
He even suspects Guo Keyun has been possessed by a demon. She used to be so timid, yet now she’s learned to take charge of the kitchen, and her cooking is actually pretty good. She’s turned the restaurant at sea into a roaring success, with customers packing the place.
Then Guo Keyun tells him, “Brother Ziyu, the restaurant at sea is still too small.”
Li Ziyu asks, “What do you have in mind?”
After careful consideration, Guo Keyun says, “Let’s open a tavern at sea! One that can hold nearly a hundred people.”
Li Ziyu stares at her in disbelief. Guo Keyun has changed. It’s as if she’s been replaced by someone else.
Premise: Helping others is a way of bringing blessings upon yourself
