I Somehow Became the Most Popular Chef

Today's update will be a little late!

Only after Shen Zhiwei died did she learn that the world she lived in was a novel about a real heiress and a fake one. As the real heiress of the Shen family, a renowned culinary clan, she'd died young because the fake heiress had stolen her fortune.

Reborn with extraordinary cooking skills, Shen Zhiwei faces the Shen family, who sided with the fake heiress in her previous life. I'm too good for you, Shen family. She leaves them without delay.

According to the original plot, she should be a career-focused heroine. So Shen Zhiwei starts appearing on shows, determined to follow that path.

When she makes steamed buns on a food show, the viewers ask: What the heck? What's so special about buns? This is a food show!

Then the buns are ready, and the viewers watch a popular actress forget all about watching her figure and wolf down ten of them.

When she becomes the chef on a lifestyle show, viewers say: So she's just a little famous for cooking? Let's see if her food is any good!

Then they watch Shen Zhiwei make rich but not greasy red-braised pork, sweet-and-sour ribs crisp on the outside and tender inside, and braised beef that's tender yet holds its shape...

The viewers think: Maybe becoming a fan will get us a bite?

With her cooking, Shen Zhiwei becomes the nation's most beloved chef. Celebrities and top-tier stars alike roll around in the comments begging for a meal.

Then one day, renowned solo artist Su Zhili tags Shen Zhiwei: Hungry.

Shen Zhiwei replies: Want me to make your favorite crayfish?

The fans: ???? Um, I'm great at peeling them. You two can have the meat; I'll suck on the shells!

Food stories are the best!!

"In the 1970s, My Second-Chance Husband Hears My Thoughts"

Xu Rumei, fresh from putting on a fashion show, has the worst luck: she gets attacked on a Paris street. When she opens her eyes again, she's become Xu Ruimei, a widow in Maolangou Commune.

Xu Ruimei has had a hard life. Her husband was killed by a falling rock while digging a river channel, leaving her with two daughters.

Seeing that she's frail, unable to work, and struggling to raise her children, the commune's women's director persuades her to take a husband.

Xu Rumei had planned to refuse, but when she sees the man returning with a load of water, her eyes light up.

His washed-out, wrinkled undershirt clings to a powerful chest, and the muscles beneath his sun-kissed skin are firm and defined.

A lean waist, and legs that seem to go on forever.

And the sharpness in his casual glance.

Muse, my muse! Could this be the inspiration I've been searching for?

…

Only after Xu Rumei marries Kuai Yue does she learn that he was forced to leave the army and return home after a land mine explosion left him deaf.

His selfish parents took his discharge pay and threw him out, without even finding him a wife.

To observe him up close and find inspiration for fashions she'd love, Xu Rumei decisively marries Kuai Yue.

It turns out that aside from being quiet because of his deafness,

he can do everything from laundry to cooking, and he can even ride horses and hunt to support the family. Their life gets better and better.

But just as she's designed a fashion collection she loves and is about to find her next muse, Kuai Yue approaches her with a dark expression.

"Are you cheating on me?"

…

In his previous life, Kuai Yue was a general who defended the last city. He fought to his last breath, then awoke in a strange new world.

Here there are strange trucks and cars, and airplanes that can fly into the sky.

He's no longer a general. He's an ordinary soldier, discharged after being wounded on the battlefield and losing his hearing.

When someone comes to arrange a match for him, he's about to refuse when he suddenly hears a voice.

[His abs are so gorgeous. I want to touch them!]

Kuai Yue stares strangely at the frail woman across from him, who is staring back just as strangely.

She isn't moving her lips, but he can hear her speak?
