The Laid-Back Little Chef (Transmigrate Into a Book)

The Lazy Little Chef (Transmigrated into a Book) [Irregular Updates]

[Reborn, scheming general x lazy little beauty transmigrated into a book]

Jiang Xiaoshu, who had just won the 21st Newcomer Culinary Prize,

unexpectedly transmigrates into a book as Jiang Ningyu, the famous beauty chef of the imperial capital.

Jiang Ningyu is not only a peerless cook, but also has charming, curved eyes. Every frown and smile seems to ensnare the soul.

Unfortunately, she lives in a chaotic era,

and a great beauty like her is destined not to escape its troubles unscathed.

The enemy nation's leader wants her to open a restaurant in his country,

a foreign chieftain wants her to settle in his domain,

and even the renowned General Lu Xiao, Lu Xiao, has repeatedly invited her to his residence.

Jiang Xiaoshu knows this is a book.

She also knows that the enemy nation's leader, the foreign chieftain, and General Lu Xiao are all nothing more than doomed stepping stones and background characters for the new emperor.

They exist to highlight the male lead's thunderous methods: the current emperor will sweep away corruption at home and abroad,

bring the people to heel, keep foreign enemies from invading for decades,

and usher in a peaceful era for the Great Qian dynasty, which has endured decades of war.

Jiang Xiaoshu does her best to avoid anything that might put her life at risk.

All she wants is to find a safe haven in this chaotic world,

settle into life as a lazy little chef,

and, ideally, open a hundred or so restaurant branches,

earn enough money, and make her escape.

But at the birthday banquet of the current Grand Secretary, a mystery about her birth unexpectedly comes to light...

Only then does she learn

that her mother came from a wealthy family in Jiang-Zhe, with riches beyond measure!

That her father was a renowned warlord with hundreds of thousands of men under his command!

That she had been promised in marriage as a child,

and her betrothed was none other than the much-admired General Lu Xiao, a destined-to-die villainous cannon fodder!

Jiang Xiaoshu: ...There's something I'd really like to say, but I don't know if I should.

P.S.:

1. The male lead is reborn, and the female lead transmigrates into a book.

2. Set in an alternate historical era.

3. A slow-burn, everyday-life story about food.
